With something for all styles, shapes, and sizes, we have compiled a list of the best pants sewing patterns available. There are pants that many people hadn’t even considered that are easy to make for a semi accomplished sewer. Even if it is for the man of the house, or to make something the kids will inevitably get grass stains on, our list is as complete as they come.
High fashion made by your own hands, these have something special about them and not just because they look great in gold and other metallic fabrics.

Another free pattern and another that is going to become a firm favorite from mood fabrics. The stylish buttoned pockets look great and the natural drawstring gives it a down-to-earth look.
We like that the instructions are simple and are made to suit a beginner although there are more skillful sections such as applying the zipper which is explained well to make it less daunting.
This is one of the most popular patterns on our list so there’s another reason to grab this pattern.

The only thing better than the design of these pants is the fact that the pattern is free.
We love the paper bag waist giving some texture lines to an outfit and it has the kind of look that can blend into any season with no problem.
Using stretch cotton corduroy is the most sensible option, not to mention the most fabulous but it is possible to switch in some cotton denim, wool twill, or Ponte knit if you prefer the feel and look.

This might not work for every child as some just won’t put on jeans but with any luck these will become a firm favourite.
You;ll be glad of it too since they are heard wearing and more resistant to holes in the knees because of the thickness of the denim.
We would say it takes a step up from beginner level to master this design but they are undeniably cute and it is best to use a pair of jeans they already fit for a guide.

Unfortunately mama this is one for the kids. As. much as we all love the flowing feel of baggy Aladdin pants the children get the benefit of the cool feel here. It is an intermediate pants sewing pattern but that is more because of the time it takes to make them rather than being overly complex.
It is best to use a fun fabric maybe something floral or with hearts to make them as exciting as they should be. Heavier fabric is good so corduroy is always popular with this design but it is best to not go as far as using denim or they will get heavy.
