Kristin made a couple alterations to the pattern, including making it sleeveless.

I think her version is fully lined.

I’m going to proceed with them as completed and try to stop wondering why they don’t quite match the diagram! They work and are so satisfying to make, so on to the next step of the pants assembly.

I made a lengthened size 2 and it way too short but still fit otherwise when she was 4. She’s skinny, but still. I love this pattern- hope you can make it work for your girl!

I’m always looking for a reason to buy another pattern 🙂 Of course as of yesterday E has decided she prefers skirts and dresses, so apparently my pants-sewing project is on hold anyway.

I had a feeling that the after school would be the best fit so I look forward to my daughter growing into the size 5! Maybe I’ll experiment with the sandbox and field trip for now. If I skip most of the pockets then I should be able to sew up a pair or two quickly to confirm fit.

But I’m not sure about the smallest sizes!

She is tall and slender- probably a 3 width and 5/6 length. She prefers no button or real fly on the front of her pants and isn’t too picky beyond that. I have the following patterns:

-sandbox (up to 3T)
-field trip (up to 4t)
-art museum (up to 4t)
-after school (5t-12)

I’ll keep the fun going. Only one of these is O+S, but I love the colors and patterns on these sisters:
