I've had this Butterick pants pattern in the stash for a while. I think it was the pockets that caught my eye in the first place. I'm sure I got it on one of the .99 cent sales.
I have a pair of army green capris that came from Sam's Warehouse probably at least 10 years ago very similar to this pattern. They are so comfy and my 'go to' in a hurry pants for a quick trip to the grocery for that "last item" I need for a certain recipe. Well, I noticed a week or so ago, there was a small hole in them. Looking back, it likely came from a puppy tooth grabbing at me (and my youngest puppy is 3.5 years old now). I guess with the washing, it frayed more and more and I finally noticed it--go figure!
So, I decided to pull out this pattern again for a "replacement pair of my army greens." My surprise-----it's a one seam pattern! I already have my Louise Cutting one seams fitted. Why I hadn't noticed this before in all the times I've pulled it from the stash, I'll never understand.
Anyhow, I'll just use my LC pattern and use the pocket pattern from the butterick. Now to find just the right fabric in the stash. Surely, I'll have some............if not---the sewing group is going to Pursely's in Duncanville day after tomorrow.
I have that pattern, too, and I never noticed that they were one-seam either! I may have to go dig it out, now.
