Absolutely love these!

My very first time making trousers and Thea was such a brilliant pattern to follow. The zipper video was very helpful too. I made the size 4 , in a burgundy cotton twill, and they fit perfectly (I'm a size 12) I made the hems a little deeper so that the legs hang just where I want them. I'll definitely be making these again, in the cropped version next.

Hi Clare, thank you so much for your amazing review! We’re thrilled that Thea was your first trouser make and that you found the pattern and the zip video so helpful. Burgundy cotton twill sounds gorgeous... we can’t wait to hear how your cropped version turns out! Happy sewing! Abi x

Now the fun starts

Currently tracing out the pattern before checking again my trouser block. The pattern instructions are as always easy to follow and there's plenty of additional help on the website to help resolve any fitting issues. I can't wait to make my toile.

Hi Jill, thank you for your lovely review of Thea! It sounds like you’re off to a great start. So glad you’re finding our instructions and extra fitting resources helpful. Happy sewing! Abi x

Perfect

Great construction and very easy, even the fly. I love it

So happy you love Thea! Thrilled to hear you found the fly easy too - enjoy wearing your new make! Abi x

Excellent trouser pattern

First trouser pattern I’ve made that are a perfect fit and the instructions are very clear and easy to follow. I will be making this pattern again.

Hi Anne, thank you so much for your wonderful review! I'm so glad to hear that the trousers were a perfect fit and that the instructions were easy to follow. We’re so happy you’ll be making them again – happy sewing! 😊 Virginija x

Amazing trouser pattern!

Finally a pair of Culotte style trousers that won't sit too tight around my thighs (size 14). I'm already working on my second pair and I'm pretty sure it won't be my last. Sewing trousers with pockets and a zipper seemed so intimidating to me. And if I look at my finished Thea trousers I still can't comprehend that it was ME who made these! The instructions are clear and take you step by step so that the project comes together quite easily. Would definitely recommend!
