It turns out to be very easy being green

The Sewing Lawyer doesn't wear a lot of green.  At least the greens that tend to get worn around here are more at the blue end.  But I'll be wearing it a bit more this summer, recently having created a pair of cropped jeans (Jalie 2908) in a busy green print.

It is a glorious day and I decided to take my auto-photo outside in the very green of our back yard.  Pardon me for squinting.

From that distance you can't sufficiently admire the print on the very stretchy stuff (lurking deep in stash) I used for these.


Here's a closer view, with my shirt (RTW lime green embroidered and beaded linen, if you please) tucked in so you can see ... well, not much more.

All right then, here's some extreme close up photos.

A view of the front is at right, showing the quilting cotton print I used inside the fly, pockets and waistband.


And the back.  So you can admire the vanishing pockets.

You may call The Sewing Lawyer crazy for cutting these out single layer so the print is mirrored, and matching it at the side seams and pockets.

Despite the thin inner waistband, the entire thing was too thick for either my Pfaff or my Featherweight (with buttonhole attachment) to cope with, so I hammered in a snap.

Everything, down to the zipper and thread, from stash.  Yay for "free" clothes!
