Thank You for your great tutorial. I, for one, didn't want the shirring to be so wide so I picked about half of them out. If you catch the right thread, you can do it in no time! The result was exactly how I wanted a pair of comfy, cute pants to be!
@@KaedyC When my mom was sewing for me I wanted to make a vest for my teddy. Took a pen and traced around the bear, with no allowance for seams or for him being 3D...
Great tutorial, and great idea! I'm going to head to the fabric store! (And I was going to nitpick and say that picot is French, so the t is silent, pronounced like peeko, but apparently it is becoming more common to pronounce it pikit or pikuht in America. The things you learn...)
Great idea! was looking for a wide palazzo style pant as I recently saw a video on wearing the pants (from stretch fabric) as a dress. You have to be able to fit your body into one leg and use the other leg as a sleeve or over your head for a halter top look. So my question is could one fit into one leg of a non-stretch fabric (such as your printed cotton)?? I love the idea of the loose cotton as an upcoming holiday will be to warmer climate and the smocked fabric would sure make the project go quickly. thank you for this fun project and I appreciate any tips you may have.
So in this video I’m mostly using my server - a Husqvarna Viking amber air 600… And yes. I love it. It’s the best machine. 😍. Able to do a beautiful stitch, easily, and put up with abuse. I also have a singer stylist quantum and a Kennmore from the early 80’s.
It would be great if you could do a step by step sew along for these as they are exactly what I’ve been looking for…I have a pattern for nice flowy pants but it has a thread through elastic waistband and I can’t work out how much fabric extra I need to make the waistband like yours? Do I double it? If so how does that look to cut out as 1 piece? Or is it 2? Sadly I also have to admit I couldn’t follow what you were saying about the crotch…..looking forward to more, thanks ps…you asked if we would prefer music…in my case it’s a none!
Thank you so much for your feedback! I feel like I have to have the music because I’m not comfortable with my voice yet in camera. That you would prefer without gives me a lot of confidence! So this fabric is pre-smocked fabric. It’s usually used for sun dresses. That’s why I had no need of an elastic waistband. I cut two pieces of fabric for this one. A right and left leg. For my next video I’ll be making a more traditional 4 piece pajama pants pattern because I want to have a side seam to put in pockets. I’ll also talk about grading elastic in the next video! That should help people understand how much they’ll need to go around their waist. Thank you again for your detailed feedback! I really want to make good videos and this helps so much! 🙂
@@KaedyC oh I didn’t know you could buy it pre smocked…thank you! Please be assured your presentation (& voice!) is perfect… I look forward to more videos
Oh ok! I had total 44” purchased for my 50” hips… but I’ll include a better description of gauging in the second video. Thanks so much for your feedback Emily!
What an awesome idea! 💖 Reading through the comments I see quite a few viewers were confused re: how you worked out the crotch. It would be fantastic if you would do a video on this process in real time and making sure the camera has the best view, as many here are novice sewers. 😺 As someone who's always had 'bigger buttocks' I so appreciate this idea for the roomy amount of fabric it provides! 😱😹😛 As an aside, you could put elastic in the leg hem for a great pair of yoga pants! 💎💖🙌😺
Already stealing that idea! 😍 I’m going to do a live (so I can take questions) and then edit it into another video that incorporates all these questions. (I hope!)
Great video Kaedy! That little tip with the ribbon seems super helpful, I think it would make a good short!
Thank you so much! I was having trouble thinking of shorts for this one but you are so right.

I LOVE this. I’m super tall so a high waisted pant works for me but I’m so stealing this for my students. ☺️
As long as kitty loves it, so does everyone else!
This is the truest thing though.
@@KaedyC I hope that your life is happy and wonderful!
If you put an elastic at the bottom hem they would be lovely harem pants too! Wonderful sewing project!❤
100% doing that next and tagging you for your awesome suggestion!
Oh my gosh...wearing those could make hot and humid weather, tolerable !! Nice!
It REALLY does. So comfy
Love how you kept citing your Mom.
My mom had me sewing by age 5… I don’t think she realized how obsessed I would get…
@@KaedyC When my mom was sewing for me I wanted to make a vest for my teddy. Took a pen and traced around the bear, with no allowance for seams or for him being 3D...
Love this idea! Thanks.😊
So EASY! You’ll love them.
These are so cute!!!
So cool and comfy too!
I love this project and the idea of presmocked fabric. Haven't found it around here (Sweden) though... maybe have to order from overseas...
Brilliant!!!
A rare flash of insight for me. 😅
Great tutorial, and great idea! I'm going to head to the fabric store! (And I was going to nitpick and say that picot is French, so the t is silent, pronounced like peeko, but apparently it is becoming more common to pronounce it pikit or pikuht in America. The things you learn...)
... wait... I want to be super cool and say things french! Forget how we've been saying it. That T is GONE.
Hard or or short o at the end?

Long O, like 'oh!' 💖🙌😺

These look super cute but am confused on how to use pattern for the crotch …? Please provide more info (don’t have ditto). Thanks!
So stinking cute. Where is my pair? I believe my measurements are stored.
Pick a color!!
Smocked leggings that is !!!
Not sure… this isn’t a stretch fabric so I’m not sure how skinny we could get it! We could do leggings some time though…
I’m going to try this but I want the smocking across the bus so so it’s more of a jumpsuit
Ohhhhh let’s do it!!
How about shocked leggings !!!!
Hello,What model of sewing machine are you using, love it
So in this video I’m mostly using my server - a Husqvarna Viking amber air 600…
And yes. I love it. It’s the best machine. 😍. Able to do a beautiful stitch, easily, and put up with abuse.
I also have a singer stylist quantum and a Kennmore from the early 80’s.
Which pair of scissors do you use?
It would be great if you could do a step by step sew along for these as they are exactly what I’ve been looking for…I have a pattern for nice flowy pants but it has a thread through elastic waistband and I can’t work out how much fabric extra I need to make the waistband like yours?

❤ Thanks! I just tried my first video without music and I was so nervous!
how you eliminated the side seams isn't clear. How much extra yardage?
Oh ok! I had total 44” purchased for my 50” hips… but I’ll include a better description of gauging in the second video. Thanks so much for your feedback Emily!

Bonjour, ou avez vous acheter votre tissu ?
I got mine from Joann’s- www.joann.com/search/?q=smocked%20fabric
It’s super soft and light with a great drape.
Music is too loud
I wish video editing was as easy as sewing!
Thank you so much for letting me know. I keep debating if I even need music. What do you think?
Ok... My latest video is voice only. I'd love to know what you think! ruclips.net/video/k6JDoAg_dDM/видео.html
Doooo it! 😂
I subs..watch grow together
Thanks! Just checked out your channel too!
What's your favorite kind of sewing?
