Free Range Slacks
Original or Curvy
Sew House Seven

$18.00 each

Slacks are defined as trousers for casual wear. While we don’t hear that term much these days, we think it is time to embrace it again.  The Free Range Slacks pattern by Sew House Seven is as easy to wear as its name.  You will feel free to roam in the comfort of a stylish, elastic high waist when you wear these pants.  Although they were designed with linen in mind, these pants are so comfortable that we think you will want to make them in a multitude of fabrics and wear them all year long in any season.

There are two options – a tapered leg version and a straight, cropped version.  Both have an elastic high waist, side panels, front pockets that are topstiched in place from behind, and an optional back patch pocket(s).  The tapered legs look great rolled up so the finished garment measurements show rolled and unrolled measurements and the instructions include options for French and flat-fell leg seams.

The pattern envelope contains a full size printed pattern and printed instructions in the selected size range.  Please choose from the original size range 00-20, or the curvy size range 18-34.  Sizes are based on body measurements, not ready-to-wear sizing.  If you are between sizes, please read below for design information for assistance in selecting a size, as well as checking measurements in the gallery images.
