I’ve used the same pattern (Jalie 3243 – Pull-on Pants) I’ve used for several other pairs of pants. My weight and shape have been relatively constant for the past year so once I worked out the details I had a pattern for pants that fit so I just keep making them.
The best part of the project is I can cut out the pants, sew them up, and wear them without any fussing. I know the length of elastic for the waist, the inseam measurement. Gain or lose weight and the measurements will change. However, right now I have a cut/sew pattern that works.
You can’t see the details – two jean-shaped pockets sewn to the front, two back pockets, an elasticized waist. That’s all there is to these pants.
I cut them out on Thursday. Got most of the construction done yesterday morning. Finished them this morning and I’m wearing them this afternoon.

Great fitting pants! and as you say, so good to have a pattern to just cut, sew, and wear! Nice work! Pat
Thanks. How’re you doing?
They look good. Go to patterns are the best. Make it so easy. Of course sometimes a challenge is fun and sometimes just getting the item created to be worn is the goal. Bernie
