If your main fabric is quite lightweight and flimsy you may need to interface the leg bands with a light interfacing.

### Main Fabric
|
||||
|
||||
<Fixme>
|
||||
Any **bottom (trouser) weight material** will work fine for this pattern. Generally you want to avoid anything that is over 7oz (230gsm) as this will more likely be too stiff and uncomfortable. You want something that provides a bit of warmth whilst still being able to drape such as **Corduroy** or **Medium Weight Suiting** fabrics. If you are looking for someting more historically correct, then **Medium weight wool suiting** is the way to go. **Linen** is also an option, especially if you would like something that isn't too warm.

|
||||
Remember that this garment is intended for cycling so needs to be able to move with your legs when pedalling!
|
||||
|
||||
</Note>
|
||||
|
||||
### Lining (Pocket) Fabric
|
||||
|
||||
Basic **Cotton** will do the trick for the pocket bags. If you got left over cotton from another project you can easily use it up for these pockets. Remember that these are intended for cycling so you don't want anything too fancy.
|
||||
|
||||
<Note>
|
||||
|
||||
If you have anything you typically use for pockets in trousers that will work too.
|
||||
|
||||
</Note>
|
||||
|
||||
### Interfacing
|
||||
|
||||
This pattern requires the waistband to be interfaced. We recommend using a **Hair Cloth** for the interfacing, you can either use fusible or non-fusible which ever you prefer. If you do not have access to hair cloth you can use any medium to firm interfacing you deem appropriate for waistbands.
|
||||
|
||||
<Note>
|
||||
|
||||
If your main fabric is quite light, you may need to interface your leg bands and zipper guard with a light weight interfacing.

|
||||
- sew parallel to the fly pieces in a basting stitch
|
||||
- press front open along the basting line
|
||||
- lay down the fronts with good side down
|
||||
- lay the zipper on the right front, aligning the left side with the basted seam
|
||||
- pin down the zipper and sew the right side to the fly piece
|
||||
- fold the zipper over to the left front and sew the left side to the left fly piece
|
||||
- make a zipper guard and attach to the right fly piece
|
||||
- undo the basting stitches and finish the fly
|
||||
- attach the pocket facings to the pocket fabric
|
||||
- attach the other sides of the pockets to the fronts
|
||||
- fold the pockets back, sew the bottom seam (french seams?) and baste the facings to the front
|
||||
- sew the side seams and inner leg seam
|
||||
- attach the cuff pieces together along three sides, right sides together
|
||||
- attach the cuffs to the bottom of the legs
|
||||
- attach the waistband in the usual way
|
||||
- Press under the seam allowances of the non-notched edges of the pokcet facings.
|
||||
- Matching notches, pin the wrong sides of pocket facings to right side of pocket bags, _Edgestitch_ the folded edges to the pocket bags.
|
||||
- _Baste_ the seam allowances of the notched edges of the pocket facings to the pocket bags.
|
||||
- With right sides together matching double notches sew the pocket bags to the front and then press to the wrong side.
|
||||
- Fold the pockets in half along the fold line, right sides together. Stitch the bottom of the pocket bag together.
|
||||
- Alternatively you can _French Seam_ the bottom seams of the pocket bags together if you prefer.
|
||||
- _Baste_ the top and side of the pocket bags to the front seam allowances mathcing notches.
|
||||
|
||||
<Note>
|
||||
|
||||
Going forward the pockets and fronts will just be referred to as the fronts.
|
||||
|
||||
</Note>
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 2: The Fly
|
||||
|
||||
- With right sides together, from the top _Baste_ along the fly line stopping at the notch on the crotch seam.
|
||||
- From where you left off with basting, stitch the crotch seam together making sure to secure your stitches where the basting ends.
|
||||
- Press open the fly and seam.
|
||||
- Lay the fronts down wrong side up so the right sides of the fly flaps are facing you.
|
||||
- Lay zipper face up on the front flaps, with the left side of the zipper touching the seam, with the bottom of the right zipper tape on the curved flap.
|
||||
- Sew the right zipper tape to the right flap close to the zipper teeth using a zipper foot. Don't sew it to the front itself!
|
||||
- Pull the zipper to the left so the right flap is pulled over.
|
||||
- Pin the left zipper tape to the left flap.
|
||||
- Sew the left zipper tape to left flap close to the zipper teeth using a zipper foot. Don't sew it to the front itself!
|
||||
- Fold the zipper guard in half wrong sides together.
|
||||
- Lay the zipper guard on the right flap, right sides touching.
|
||||
- Sew the zipper guard to the right flap, _Finish_ the right side to your liking.
|
||||
- _Finish_ the left side of the left flap to your liking.
|
||||
- Unpick the basted part of the front seam.
|
||||
- _Topstitch_ the right flap down, away from the now unpicked seam, as far down as you can.
|
||||
- Pin/_Baste_ the zipper protector over to the right side to keep it out of the way for the next step
|
||||
- On the outside side, sew the left flap down to the left, following the curved line.
|
||||
- On the outside side, _Bar-Tack_ where you like them for reinforcement.
|
||||
|
||||
<Tip>
|
||||
|
||||
When sewing the left flap down on the outside, you may find it best to make a template to help you.
|
||||
|
||||
</Tip>
|
||||
|
||||
<Note>
|
||||
|
||||
If you wish to orientate the fly the other way change the left to right and right to left in the steps above.
|
||||
If wanting something more historical than omit the zipper and make a buttonhole fly instead.
|
||||
|
||||
</Note>
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 3: Attaching the front to the back
|
||||
|
||||
- With right sides together sew the back pieces together along the back seam.
|
||||
- With right sides together sew the front and back together at the side seams and inner leg seam. Making sure to leave a gap below the notches at the bottom of the side seams. The gap will be referred to as the list when going forward.
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 4: Leg bands

||||
|
||||
