This was Kwik Sew 3115 made up in a lovely soft and quality grey knit which I bought at Mood Fabrics in New York. Yes, and they laughed at me at the train station in the morning when I arrived with my little suitcase for my purchases? Guess who had the last laugh. Man alive, I bought fabric until my little suitcase was totally full! Im still sewing up the fabric and this is one of the latest. I top stitched down the outer seam on the legs. I used the triple straight stitch on my Jnaome Horizon Mc8900 and the Acufeed Flex foot VD to feed those layers of fabric through just beautifully efficiently. I like to lengthen the stitch to the max 5) and first press my serged seam to one side on the wrong side of the pants. I do this BEFORE I sew the inseam as it is so much easier at this point.
Once pressed, flip over the right side, audition the thread colour you wish for the top stitching and away you go. It looks so much smarter and only took a few minutes extra for this small detail. I like to select a thread colour for the top stitching that I can actually see otherwise why bother. I believe I used a charcoal, almost black, thread on these pants.
