Meet the Testers for the Addy Pant with Free Legging Pattern

I love getting to know new people through my patterns.  It is so much fun!  I think I have been very lucky with all my patterns to find wonderful pattern testers.  The girls who have tested my Addy Pant pattern were wonderful!  I ended up adding the legging pattern to the Addy pant, which turned out perfectly!  Here are some pictures of what these awesome ladies have done with the pattern.
 It was so fun to have Jerica test these leggings for me.  This was one of her first time sewing with knits, and I think they turned out awesome!  How cute are leggings on these tiny little legs.  Jerica has opened a shop on facebook that you need to stop by and follow.  https://www.facebook.com/BugberryBoutique  She is just getting her page started and is working on adding everything to it, so please share to help get Bugberry Boutique known.
Amy is so on top of it!  She made this pair out of a jersey sheet using the top of the sheet for the hem of each pant leg.  I love the large folded hem.  It looks adorable!  Amy has the idea of adding some fun embellishments and pockets to a pair of pants too.  I can't wait to see how those turn out.

 Cheri was so wonderful that she made 3 pairs from the pattern using fleece cotton and knit.  Cheri is the perfect grandma!  I think that is what I love so much about this basic pattern is that is is so versatile for any fabric.  And how great do they look on Cheri's granddaughter.  Cheri also has a shop, check her out on etsy here - https://www.etsy.com/shop/TheFiberChick and like her on facebook here -

I am hoping to get another review soon, and to have any changes made to the pattern by today.  So please keep your eye out in my shop.  I will offer the Addy Pant Pattern with the free legging for 1/2 off for 1 week after it is listed.

Addy Pant

Newest Pattern!!  The Addy Pant comes in sizes 2 - 12.  Perfect pattern just in time for school.
 I have actually had this pattern for a while, and I have been hording it!  I have been making these for my daughter and a few other people who have seen them and wanted some.  So I decided I better share!  It is such a wonderful pattern for the beginner sewer.  Basic pant with an elastic waist and flared leg.  It is such a versitile pattern as far as fabrics that can be used.  I have made these with a soft cotton, a suiting fabric, and even knit.

I am tempted, and would love your suggestions, but I am thinking of adding a basic legging pattern as a bonus to this pattern.  Let me know what you think!?  Wouldn't that be great!!
I am in need of pattern testers!!  I am looking for 2 people to test this pattern for me.  If you like the idea of adding the legging pattern as a bonus, I will draw for 2 additional testers.  So please specify which you would prefer to sew.  If you would like to test this please follow the giveaway instructions below.  Here's the deal for you. You get the pattern for free. I only ask that you are able to sew the dress within a week of me emailing it to you, and give me any comments or suggestions you may have.  I will attach a comment form for you.  If you have any reason that you think you may not be able to get it sewn in time, please do not enter the raffle.  As soon as you have tested the sewing pattern as a thank you to you for your help, I will send you another free sewing pattern of your choice from my shop.  Here is a link to my shop to check it out - https://www.etsy.com/shop/mytaylormade
