These pants have to be the easiest pants I have ever made .. they took maybe 20 minutes and that was mainly because of a few adjustments I made.  I added 4 inches to the pants leg and took away some of the width in the leg to make it more of a skinny pant. </div>

Next time I plan on adding a zipper so that I can get a snugger fit around the waist without stretching the fabric while getting in and out of the pants.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
 I also plan on taking a few inches out of the crotch area to get a sleeker look . </div>

Hi hunnies!! I hope you all are having a great week , if not we are almost there so..

HANG IN THERE !!!

Hopefully this colorful outfit will brighten your day :) .

So! Ive seen a TON of pictures circulating on line of this crisscross shirt with a longer back ..

I really loved the look so I decided to try it myself!

The pattern that I chose for the top was M6991

http://mccallpattern.mccall.com/m6991-products-48707.php?page_id=96

I chose it for obvious reasons, It has exactly the look that I wanted!!

All I had to do was add length to the "tail and take away the pocket... NOW if you choose to make this shirt you can add the pocket but I chose not to.

The shirt was SUPER easy to make ..everything came together to easy!

This shirt cost about 9.99 to make ..

The fabric I used was a stretch knit that I found on the remnants table at Joann's It took about two yards of fabric with the extension on the back

I will be making more of these in the future.... Maybe in a size smaller :)

The pants where made from pattern S1373
