I feel like a regular smarty pants today! A few weeks ago I purchased a pair of capris from Nigaard and they are the most comphy pants ever! They have a high elastic waist and are elastic "ish" all over the fabric. Hard to describe, but I LOVE them, even if they were a bit more then I prefer to spend at one time on one article of clothing. A few weeks go by and I'm still having trouble with all my other clothes, my pants do not want to stay up! ARG!!! What to do?!? in the shower of all places I had an AH HA moment and thought "what if I put 4 inch elastic on the top of the waistband of my other shorts that keep heading south?"
Living in NorthWestern Ontario I have no access to 4 inch elastic so had to resort to ebay! (gotta love that ebay!) I ordered two different colours and in just over a week it arrived at my post box. Yay! So, I measured and cut and adhered and sewed and "tada!" I had elastic sewn onto my waistband. Doesn't look gorgeous but it sure is comfortable!!! My pants no longer travel on their own, no more panties poking out, no more crack issues! Love, love, love!! Now, I need to post a how too I bet! Will get those pictures taken and a few instructions posted. The way I finished the edges is neat enough I have to share.
I have been remaking t-shirts as well and will show you what I did there too! Just wait for it...
