Goodbye trousers......
21:38Hello maxi skirt!! (Aka Skrousers....!)
Seriously lovelies, this was so easy I didn't even remember to take photographs to show you how...but I'll explain. (p.s. I know how lame that is...what's the point in me even blogging this....but Ben keeps nagging me for not blogging so you know, I have to get something out there!)
From the crotch down unpick both inside leg seams on your trousers. Don't unpick the crotch. Lay the Skrousers down flat inside out and pull together both front seams, pin and stitch. Lay the back seams together and stitch down from where the funny crotch bit goes funny down to about 8" above the hem. Fold the remainder under and stitch to form a back split.
Job done, flounce around in your Skrousers and pretend you're a celebrity and make up crazy words like skrousers :) You can use that yourself though, I'm not precious :)

The back pockets are at the front?
ReplyDeleteNo the front pockets are at the front, the back pockets are at the back....
DeleteVery smart. Cracking stuff, Mrs H!
ReplyDeleteThanks Paul :)
DeleteBased on my own opinion, I think that your idea of saying goodbye to trouser and having maxi skirt is a great idea. I know that we both have our own preference on what we want to wear. I know that I would also love wearing maxi skirt.
ReplyDeleteThanks lovely, I wear trousers fairly often but these ones just didn't seem to fit right, they were a bit too flared for me...as a skirt I've worn them much more than I ever did as trousers!
DeleteThis is so cute! I guess here in the US, we'd call this Skants, LOL. I have a favorite pair of pants that are a size too big now that I might try this with. The skirt would just sit a little lower on the waist, which would be fine.
ReplyDeleteI'm gonna pretend I didn't just snort in a very unladylike manner over it being called Skants! :)
