They were the very first pants I made after testing the pattern. These ones aren’t finished because I could never decide what to do with the hem as I made the pattern too short.

Hey Bombshell, That’s Sew Retro!
By now, you’ve probably heard of a capsule wardrobe — maybe even Project 333. The idea is simple: you choose a limited number of garments, shoes, and accessories, and box up the rest of your wardrobe for a season.
