DIY: Harem Pants

Hey guys!

This morning I'm uber excited to share my latest DIY project with you - Harem pants! It's been on my mind to try and make them for a while now, and after many trips to the only fabric store here in Bermuda (no I'm exaggerating, there's two) I found the perfect fabric to do the job. I purchased 2 1/2 yards of a pretty, indigo-ish colored fabric that I think is some type of cotton blend. Although the fabric is a bit sheer, I feel that I worked with it pretty well.

I used stitch witchery (fabric tape) to hold the main seams of fabric together. In addition to being a great alternative to using a needle & thread, fabric tape is quick, fun, & easy!

Here, I made a hem in each leg and put elastic in them.




The 1st fitting lol - I hadn't put the elastic in the waist yet.





Here are more photos of the finished product!! I'm planning to do a tutorial (as soon as I get my hands on some more fabric) so that I can show you guys how to make a pair of harem pants for yourself.
