My first attempt of making a senator trousers for my male friend all by myself

Hello everyone

I never believed I could do this on my own all by myself but it was just like a joke for me from the start to the final outcome of how I was able to cut and sew this senator male trouser for my friend, at first, I thought along the line, I will have to call for help because deep within me, I knew I was going to get stuck in the middle or somewhere before I finish but to my greatest surprise, I was able to cut and sew it all by myself to the finished trousers.

I told my friends sometimes ago that I have gone to enroll myself at a tailor's shop on how to sew male outfit, a long the line, I told them I can now cut and sew male outfit but then, it was usually under my boss supervision, he always guide and put me through the process, sometimes when I get stuck, I will run to him to help me out, though, I wasn't stable at the training center as I have my personal stuff to attend to, I only go there once in a while, that makes me not to have understood the process very well.

Just last week, my male friend bought a fabric for an occasion which I also got for myself too, he gave it to me that I will be the one to make the outfit for him, I thought he was joking not until I found out he really meant it. I had to prove to him that I can do it, I collected the fabric and decided to work on it myself.

It was a plain and pattern fabric, so the plain was used to make the trousers first. To cut the trousers, I had to think on how my boss usually cut it I began to do my work.

The black material was folded into 2 to cut the front part of the trousers, I measured 2" for the band then the full length and 2" for the hemming allowance, I marked out the waist measurement, the tigh, crouch, knee and ankle measurement and it was cut out.

The front was placed on another folded fabric to cut out the back part of the trousers with 2" by the crouch area downward.

From the remaining plain fabric, I cut out the pocket of 14 by 10"

The pockets were sewn to the front part of the trousers the the back were sewn to the front as well.

After Sewing the two sides together the two crouch were sewn together, while the band and hem were folded and sewn inward. At the band, I left an opening of about ½" for me to insert the rope I made, the rope was inserted to the band and I have my male trouser completed.

It was neatly ironed and this is the final outcome, I hope you like it.
