Going Dotty

I've wanted to make these pants since this pattern came out, but I could never find the time. I also hadn't found the right fabric. I was afraid of a fly zipper. Afraid of not being able to do it just right. Marie suggested the Jalie instructions for a fly zipper. Thank you Marie. The instructions worked a treat.

Funny thing is that you can't see the zipper because the apron covers it!

Pattern: Farbenmix Roberta
Fabric: Cord from Spotlight, patchwork printed poplin Stenzo from Bunte Fabrics.
Embroidery: Milli Zwergenschoen from Galerie Tausendschoen; Hedgie from Kunterbunt Design.

I WISH my girl would love them.
I reckon your Moo and you have pretty cool taste!
And my girl? Well, her tastes may be slightly different to mine!

Gorgeous Sara! I've been thinking about sewing these pants for ages, it's great to see what you've done with the pattern.
