April's Pattern for Sew My Style 2019 is the Hepburn Pants from Wardrobe by Me. The pattern calls for fabric with some stretch which I wasn't very excited about. I don't want pants that stretch; I prefer cotton that relaxes over time. So, off I went to Colorado Fabrics to figure out what I was going to use. I settled on a recycled polyester bottom weight. I justified buying polyester by reminding myself that it was recylced.

Here is my version #1 of the Givre Shirt by Deer and Doe. I cut this as a size 36 even though I measure a 34. It is made from scraps. Who knows what type of material. It feels very much like the top is plastic and the bottom is some sort of blend.

This is version #2. I cut it the same size. This is a heavier weight, and I know it is cotton/lycra. Both of these are pretty darn tight. I normally don't wear a lot of tight clothes.
