DIFFICULTY: 3 of 5 spools - Intermediate

NOTIONS: Thread, one 10” or longer regular coil non-separating zipper, three 1/2” flat buttons, one trouser hook & eye set. We suggest a #3 size zipper, as it has a smaller zipper pull. Please note: the zipper is intentionally too long & will be trimmed in the construction process. 

SUGGESTED FABRICS: The ideal choices for the Morris Pants & Shorts are medium & bottom weight non-stretch woven fabrics. Linen, twill, lightweight canvas, wool, baby wale corduroy, & light to medium weight denim are good options. If you select wool, keep in mind that these are not lined. Lighter fabrics like medium weight crisp shirting & yarn dyed cottons also work well, but will have less structure. 

For the welt pocket lining, a lightweight lining fabric is ideal, like bemberg rayon, polyester, silk, or cotton lawn. You want to minimize bulk as much as possible for the pockets.

SKILLS REQUIRED: 

  • Basting

  • Darts

  • Seam Grading
