Week 6- Trouser(2) Silk Satin

This week we where told to use red silk satin chosen by  matthew. He was not able to get me the fabric on time due to financial reasons. So i drew out my pattern which was a basic slim leg trouser pattern, I then cut one long pannel going down each leg.

As I waited for matthews red satin i decided to use  black jersey fabric as my main material because i did not was to have to make the trousers last minute due to not having the material. The reason for me cutting out the pannel was to add matthews red silk satin.. I felt that the jersey fabriic was a more suitiable fabric for the trousers anyway as it allows the body to move freely.

This pattern was nice and straight forward but just a bit time consuming

Overall i really like these trousers. they gave me the confidence to explore  more with different materials.
overall rating 6.5/10

Disadvantages

• I did not overlock my gaarment
• I did not streatch my waistband enough as i was sewing it on
• The material ripped (giving it a blunt needle affect) because it was not good quality.( If streatched to much it would just tear.
