Sewing instructions

1. First, print out and cut out the pattern. 
2. Place the pattern on the main fabric (muslin or sweatshirt fabric) so that all the pieces fit on the fabric, then cut them out with fabric scissors.

3. Place the waistband along the fold against the folded edge of the fabric and cut out the fabric double-layered.

4. Sew the pocket onto the front piece on the right and left sides.

5. Turn the pants inside out and fold the pocket in half, then lay the pants down as shown in the photo.

6. Secure the center section with a few stitches.

7. Pin the back piece to the front piece at the pocket fold with a needle.

8. Sew the back piece to the outer and inner edges of the legs.

 9. Then turn the pants right side out.

10. Fold the bottom of the legs up by approx. 0.5–1 cm and sew them in place.

12. Fold the waistband in half and pull it over the top of the pants, with the open side facing upward.

13. Sew the waistband onto the pants, gently stretching the waistband fabric so it expands.

14. Now sew on the buttons.

15. Your handmade doll or teddy bear pants are finished.
