Yoga Pants

Well here we go.  I made the Yoga Pants from Silhouette patterns and did exactly as she said on the webcast, just make them up.  Then I made a 2nd pair.  I haven't decided which pair I prefer, but I do want to raise the waistband about 1" as it hits right at the softest part of my belly, and a bit higher would just be nicer for me.  I also need to figure out a slight alteration for my flat backside.  But all in all, I'm not complaining.  Oh, and I used the Ponte Roma from Joanns.

I'm not one to wear pants like these in place of slacks.  They really would be my lounging and/or (lol) exercise pants.

And here is the Giorgio top on me.  As I looked through all the photos (this is the only one I don't look dorkish in) I'm thinking it's too big and I will definitely try the smaller size next.

I'm not sure what I'm going to work on next.  I really do want to work on the regular slacks now.  I'd still like to perfect the yoga pants pattern and do another one of these tops.  I've purchased a lot of new patterns lately, just no new fabric.  I really want to try to use some of what I have, get it gone, work on my skill...and then....really enjoy fabric shopping.

And I have to not worry about my sizes and just sew for me NOW.  I'm very guilty of sewing stagnation due to my weight, as I'm up and down a lot.  I just want to have fun while I sew.
