I made a thing for my wife. Two, actually, adventurers skirt and matching hat from the same material.

Cargo skirt

It has pockets, 4 of them.

It's a third (and fourth) thing I've sewn, first being another skirt and a shirt.

I've tried sewing pants next, and found fitting them to be a nightmare, despite reading through a lot of tutorials. Ah, well, practice makes perfect, I guess.

Hat tax

FP edit: Thanks everyone for kind words!
Send patterns or advice?

Pockets! Squeee!

You better start selling them and make your money before big fashion catches on and you get disappeared.

That's awesome! But it'd be even more awesome if you built in shorts to make adventuring easier! #skort

Did you buy the pattern or make it up on your own? Looks professionally done! Very cool

I did buy a pattern, not nearly enough experience to tackle it on my own yet. But I had to adjust it, and learned a lot. So maybe soon.

As a professional; the fact this is your 3 & 4 thing you’ve made, it’s super well done! Stunning, keep going. Trousers are difficult.

Thanks for the encouragement! I had to redo some parts several times to fix novice mistakes, but with every step I gain more confidence.

And now I can't help but look at every garment I see and try to understand how it was done and the processes used.

It’s hard to make 2 dimensional into 3 dimensional! Well done. Pyjama pants are an easy place to start
