Way back in January 2019, I documented making lounge pants for my husband and son from Simplicity 8519. My son requested another pair this year. So, what's a Mom to do but make the pants. I read through the information that I written previously on those particular lounge pants. I purchased this fabric:
This was a snuggle flannel from JoAnn Fabrics. It really is a perfect fabric for this type of project but be warned it is narrow. I purchased 3 yards with the employee giving me the remainder on the bolt which was another yard. I had 1/3 of yard left. After being washed this fabric was 40" wide. Be aware that this is narrow yardage.
I traced a large, added 3" to the length, lengthened the pockets by 2", and removed the fiddly bits at the front pant opening. Here are the finished pants with the faux fly:
Happy Stitching!
