E CORDS 18mo Pattern and Text Instructions HERE

I liked the result of Ellie's mustard corduroy pants so much I decided to whip up a few more!
I was wondering if anyone would like my pattern pieces to make your own. The original post had tips to use clothing to make your own pattern, but I already have these 18 month skinny jeans drafted. Leave a comment if you think you'd use them so I know they'd help someone before I scan and finish the digital, printable version.
So for the complete set I chose to add charcoal and lilac for fall.
The "e" in the name comes from the little machine free sewn lower-case e on each bum pocket--Ellie's initial.
Most of the details are the same, the faux fly, buttonhole elastic waist, and narrow leg opening.
But this time around, I had plenty of fabric so I cut the pockets on the bias.
So the front patch pockets angle toward the side seams.
The bum pockets angle toward the back center seam.
Not a big deal, but a subtle texture detail when you cut it out.

Lilac:
More fall toddler clothes to come next week!

I LOVE these pants. I've scoured the internets for a skinny pant pattern that doesn't involve an actual zip fly. Sadly, my boys (yes I totally think this a unisex pattern!) fall into the 2-6 age range. I'd totally buy this if you were to make other sizes!!!
ReplyDeleteI love these pants !
ReplyDeleteMy granddaughter is just moving into 18 month sized pants, so I would LOVE a printable pattern if you don't mind. These would be perfect for fall and winter. May I ask where you got your corduroy? The colors are yummy.
ReplyDeletethese are SOOO cute!
ReplyDeleteLike everyone else, I really love these. My little boy has moved on from the 18 month size though. (*sniff*) But I probably will use the tutorial you posted to draft a pant pattern for him. Cords are my favourite!

I would love to use your pattern pieces! I am dying to make some for my little guy!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, those are the best! I never had a thing for cords...until now! My sister is big into corduroy, and she's got tons of the stuff. I may have to go shopping at her house. :-)
ReplyDeleteumm... yes! my neice is coming up on that size, and i could see these on my son in a few months too! (in boyish colors of course...)
ReplyDeleteJess, I love the blouses you've made for yourself and Ellie. I still don't know how you have the time to sew all of these clothes. The pants are definitely cute. It would be fun to try something like that.
ReplyDeleteThese are so gorgeous! I absolutely would make a pair (or 2 or 3) if you shared it.
ReplyDeleteI would totally buy this pattern. They are adorable!!
ReplyDeleteGreat pants! My girls are too big for that size, but I have to take your idea and make some of my own. I am having the hardest time finding comfortable pants in the store for them, especially my 3 year old.
ReplyDeleteI love love! My daughter is about the same size and I have been trying to make her some from you tutorial to no avail (very very beginner sewer!)A pattern is just what I need!
ReplyDeleteI love these and would totally use it, just let me know where. :-)
ReplyDeleteI would totally love the pattern for these pants. It's hard to find girl's pants that allow them to move as comfortably as boys can.
ReplyDeleteA-dor-a-ble!!! The model and the pants!
ReplyDeleteIf you felt like sharing your pattern, I would totally take you up on it! My little darling is just growing into size 18 months and I have been feverishly working to get her fall wardrobe made. I love the sassiness of skinny cords!
ReplyDeleteps. for a pattern you're generously thinking about sharing for free, I'm just fine with hand-drawn lines. Save your energy if you'd like. :)
wow, never knew how cute cords could look! Love the idea of using them for skinny pants- and the colors you chose are fabulous!
ReplyDeleteIf you'd share the pattern, I'd be really tempted to make some for my niece :)
These pants are adorable! I agree that they are fantastic for both boys and girls :) I would love it if you would share your pattern! My son is 15 months old but already in 18-24 month store bought clothing so I would love to make some of these for him. I hope you are having a wonderful day dear :)

ReplyDeleteso could use a pattern for this-would you consider putting in bigger sizes as well?????
ReplyDeleteI'd love a patter for these chords. I've already made three pairs of jeggings and would love to make these also. My bib is only 4 months old, but I can try and down size your pattern pieces. Is this pattern on your blog? I can't seem to find it... Or do you email them?
