Nikka Balloon Pants

Amazing pattern! I used a very lightweight polished cotton (educated guess, it's thrifted) and I love how they turned out. This is my first time making pants with a pattern and I was able to follow the video instructions the whole time without any issues. I did add some topstitching to reinforce a few places but otherwise I didn't need to change much. I considered not doing the cuff lining because of how light the fabric is but I'm glad I did, it adds a really nice structure that makes these feel more finished. As far as sizing I was shocked that these fit perfectly without needing to change the waistband. I generally wear XL pants because I like them oversized and I have much wider hips/butt than my waist, so that was the size I went with. The fit ended up working out though, I'll definitely be making more of these!

chose this pattern to make something out of my comfort zone on style. The pants on the right are made with double gauze, I chose as an experiment. the barrel shape is much more relaxed, and the pants fit like atleast one size up. the ones on the left were made with cotten and have a much more defined shape and are also true to the size chart.

My favorite pants. I’ve made them at least 6 times and once for my sister.

Gorgeous pattern, truly a delight to make. I did mine in corduroy and plan to make another pair in lightweight linen-cotton.

This was a really great pattern. The instructions were easy to follow and I LOVED the YouTube video- that made a huge difference. I’ll need to make some additional alterations for my body, esp around the crotch area but it looks good as is too! I added two inches on the bottom to adjust for my height.

Very nice pattern, well thought out descriptions and a very helpful and enjoyable youtube sew-along. Would recomend! (Excuse the mess in the bacground of the photos, sewing this was much more inspiring than picking that up)

I really enjoyed making these trousers, the video and instructions were very easy to follow.

Love this pattern! Didn't have quite enough linen so tried it in a lightweight cotton. Holds it shape well, will make more of these. The tutorial was great, this was a really fun project. Note that its French sizing- I'm a US 14 with hips and made the 46/3XL pattern so if you are US 18 or bigger, you may have to modify the pattern for a good fit.

have made these for myself and friends!

Great pattern and love that comes with a YouTube video as well as instructions! As a beginner who’s only made a pair of shorts before I was able to follow along and learnt how pleats and pockets work - love the final result! (Not ironed in photo)

Super cooler Schnitt ,hab ihn für meine Tochter genäht..Ihre neue Lieblingshose

Very easy to follow, especially with the YouTube video! It was my first time making pants, and the only thing wonky about mine is the waistband (my fault). Very great pattern writing!

Great pattern! Easy to follow and video very helpful. I made a couple changes to the cuffs to give a more tapered look and added a fun draw string for my partner too!
The length was perfect for my 6ft2 lad, so if you’re on the shorter side, maybe consider shortening:)

As a beginner, this was great and easy pattern to follow. Having a youtube video to follow made it 10 times easier and I learned so much from this experience. LOVE the pants too! Im so proud and excited to wear them out. Will definitely be buying more patterns from this store.

Great sewing project that came together easily. The pattern was straight forward without many details. The video was very helpful.

I used gabardine fabric and love how they turned out. I did end up shaving off some of the outseam as it was too much with my fabric choice, and think I’ll size down in the next pair. But overall I think it’s a great pattern!

Fabulous, well-written pattern and the results were incredible. I'll be making more of these!

These are the first pants I ever made, and I cannot believe how beautifully they turned out. Pattern is simple enough to be doable, but complicated enough to yield a sophisticated garment. And the video is ***incredibly*** clear and helpful! 10/10 would recommend.

Batalle en algunas partes pero todo bien al final, soy principiante y me quedo hermoso 🤭

Simple pattern, knockout look. I skipped back pockets on the first pair, and messed up the front pocket facings a little, but nothing a little hand-tacking couldn't take care of -- and they'll be so quick and easy on my next pair. Lots of compliments today! <3

zeer blij mee! Duidelijk en een fijn patroon. Heb hem iets in genomen. Maar dat is mijn eigen voorkeur ✨

I made these pants for my trip to Egypt and I got SO many compliments. The instructions were easy to follow and the YouTube video was straight to the point. 10/10

So fun and love the fit!
