Autumn, pants and panel skirts

my workroom

Today I worked on some pants for winter. They are the same cut as the wide leg linen and cotton pants but they have a yoke front waistband with a cotton lycra back. This seems to work better with the heavier fabrics than straight cotton lycra and is still really comfortable. The denim pictured is a nice light-weight black with a little bit of stretch and texture. To line the yoke I've used some nice vintage cotton. Because of the stretchy back this waist can still be folded down.

This is a new panel skirt. It is made from the same light-weight black denim. The panel is vintage fabric and denim strips woven onto a backing piece then over-sewn to stabilize.
