Fabric Suggestion: lightweight fabrics

When it comes to choosing the right fabric for your trousers sewing pattern, there are a few things to keep in mind.

First, you'll want to choose a lightweight woven fabric. This will help to ensure that your pants are comfortable to wear and won't be too heavy.

Second, you'll want to choose a fluid fabric such as veils, satin, viscose, silk, rayon challis etc. This will help to create a pair of pants that flow nicely and look great on. With these things in mind, you're sure to find the perfect fabric for your next pair of pants.

We don't want to interfere into your creative process, but we see some great lightweight linen pants from this pattern :) just saying!

How much fabric do you need for your DIY loose fit silhouette pants?

Depending on the width of the chosen fabric, fabric requirements will differ.

The table below displays the sizes and quantities of fabric required for a typical 1 40-150cm fabric width. Just adjust the pieces as necessary if your fabric is a different width or has a pattern such as plaids or stripes. Making summer pants that suit your style and budget can be simple with a little planning.

Check your contraction!

Choosing the right fabric is crucial if you're making your own clothes. The fit and appearance of a garment can vary depending on the properties of the fabric. By checking the fabric's contraction before sewing, you will be able to prevent any troubling fitting issues later on.

Ironing your fabric at its highest temperature recommendation will ensure that you get rid of any wrinkles or imperfections in the material. During this process you will ensure that the finished garment will fit the way it was sewn and that it won't shrink after washing.
