I made a pair of pants for my favorite model this week just in time for Halloween. The fabric is Black Jolly Roger from Alexander Henry. I then ironed the Skull Applique on a plain white T-shirt. A pants pattern is here if you are so inspired. I did figure out a new trick for pants adjustment that is really helpful. I needed to expand her pants pattern a bit and rather than rework the whole thing, I just cut it in half length-wise and taped another 1 1/2" of paper in between. The crotch then stayed the same, the pant length is easily adjusted and I have bigger pants. If the crotch needs adjusting, I'll just cut the pattern widthwise and insert paper as needed. It's not that profound, but I had never approached it that way before. Much easier.
Here is the angry model walking off of the shoot. She has her agent on her Barbie cell phone, I'm sure.
She is TOO CUTE for words! Nice job.

Thank you so much for posting this very easy pattern. I envision lots o' pants for my little one with my fav Joel Dewberry fabric. Hey, why don't you carry his stuff? I've purchased so much I'm sending his kids through college! (I might as well give some to your college fund :))
