Make comfortable yoga waistband pajama pants that doubles as a strapless jumper!
Love this! You can’t beat thrifted fabric (both the purple fabric and waistband fabric I got at the goodwill). I spent a whopping $5.95 on this project and still have enough fabric left over to make another pair. So REALLY I spent like $3.00 on these.. ok that’s craziness!

I love these pants because you won’t find a more comfortable waistband, you can adjust it to cover more belly (like when you just chowed a pint of ice cream) or wear it low and more of a “skirt” over pant look if your feeling sassy. Oh but wait!, let’s say you want o go run some quick errands, no need to change my friend. Flip up that waistband, add a belt and run on your way. (it’s no one else's business if you just happened to sleep in that same outfit the night before. !)

Supplies:

Sewing Machine and appropriate thread
Fabric (I got my purple fabric for $3.50 at goodwill and it was nearly 4 yards worth!) knit or woven doesn’t matter, the knit version fits loser
Knit fabric, like tshirt style knit or yoga pant style knit for waistband. I found about a yard of it at goodwill.
Pattern drafted from the “Pants” pattern in this book - Design it yourself, pattern making simplified the basic pant pattern without waistband or anything. as we are doing a different fit.
