Almost done -- Sailor Pants!

[kproche]

Today I almost finished my sailor pants, aka fall-front bell-bottomed trousers.

I have two things left to do -- hem them, and adjust the placement of the waistband buttons/buttonholes. It turns out where it looked like they should go makes the pants altogether too tight, even with the rear lacing let out.

Detail of the fall-front, buttoned closed I have to move the center waistband buttons and extend the buttonholes. It's a little too tight at the moment, even with the back laces all the way loose

Yup. Even got it to work in the old touch-screen slate.

Now we just need to build a "picture frame" box to hold the slate .

Yay! Can't wait. Would have loved to have done a Host costume, but no time. And 2/3rd of my apartment is packed up.
