Done with the denim!
The good thing, she really likes them! She keeps bending over and meowing at people (yes, with her butt....). The one pocket has a kitty embroidered on it and the other pocket I used hot-fix crystals and made the word "Meow!". I meant for the pockets to be on the reverse "cheeks", but realized too late. Ce la vie!
The length is just right. The waist is actually a little big....I should have done the gaposis fix in the back. Oh well, they don't tend to fall down, and that is what is important. I wanted to give this pattern a try before I used up too much fabric making myself a pair. It was an easy pattern to follow. Sometimes, I was tempted to do my own thing, but I restrained myself and was very happy with all of the results exactly as written in the instructions. I didn't get a pictures of it, but I used a betty boop cotton for the insides of the front pockets. She really liked that!
I think they look rtw! That was the goal (and of course to have them fit......)!
Happy Thanksgiving! I made my cranberry sauce and my apple pie tonight. We are off to have dinner with my in-laws tomorrow! I am looking forward to a wonderful day!

These look great! (And my daughters would both for sure walk around meowing with their butts). I totally agree with you about the deceptive time requirements for pants, especially jeans. I tend to not make them becuase they take just a wee little bit longer than my actual attention span (which granted, isn't very long).
I can't wait to see the grown up version of these too! And Happy Thanksgiving!
(And I think buttonhole elastic would take care of that back waistband gaposis problem on the next pair you do for her-- I'm a firm believer in the amazing power of buttonhole elastic!)
I love that she bends over and meows with her backside. The jeans are great!!
Too cute. Meow lol. You did a great job!
