Ribbon-Trimmed Pants

This was my first go at making pants.  Some linen/cotton blend capri pants for my three-year-old trimmed with vintage ribbon.  I started with a pattern but pretty much scrapped it altogether.  My kids have trouble keeping their pants up and the back of the pants really doesn’t require any more room than the front!  This made it easier as I just cut four pieces exactly alike.  Other than sewing the legs together and running out of trim (thus narrowing the pant legs), I think it went pretty well.  If my frilly girls will wear pants, then I will make some more.
