Hi!  I’m Shelly from Sew Shelly Sew and I’m excited to bring you this week’s Feature Friday, The Maxx-ine Slim-Fit Pants & Skirt Pattern.  Guess what?!  The pattern is on sale for just $6 today only!  

The Maxx-ine Pants are super on-trend with a comfy slim-fit.

They feature front slash pockets, optional back patch pockets, as well as the coolest side-seam zippers!  You can use stable knits or stretch wovens, so they are very versatile!  In addition to the pants, the pattern comes with a simple A-line skirt pattern.  The skirt has similar features, including the front slash-pockets and the side-seam zipper(s).   Both patterns have a pull-on, wide elastic waistband…perfect for my 4 year old to pull on and off independently!

I used a super dark stretch denim from JoAnn’s for this pair and added some spooky monster eyes in the spirit of Halloween.  Honestly, I would love these pants even more without the monster eyes, but since Lucy loves them they have to stay.

The zipper is the monster’s mouth.  My husband did not get that!

The exposed zipper going down the side is just so cool!

I had never done an exposed zipper like this (I am a bit zipper-phobic), but it was super easy and the directions completely held my hands through it!  Is anyone else afraid of zippers as much as I am?
