The weather in Texas is starting to warm up but at the same time there is still a chill in the air. Hmm I wish there was a clothing item that’s a cross between shorts and pants , what if . . .
Oh it looks like you caught me mid thought.
Pardon my ramblings but I’ve been puzzled because there isn’t a clothing item that is the best of both worlds.
Well this is funny, as I’m talking to you, I just discovered the combo of shorts and pants that I’ve been searching for and it’s all thanks to allnurds.
And it will be featured in The Dolly Sewing Crush Project #3.
Let’s check it out!
This Month’s Sewing Motto: Mistakes Happen, But So Does Growth
Dolly Sewing Crush: allnurds Project #3
This week we will dive into the relaxed Gaucho Pants from Doll Coordinate Recipe 13 Casual & Unisex on page 112.
Gaucho Pants are not quite shorts and not quite pants, they’re the perfect blend of styles.
In 6 steps you’ll have a pair of laid back wide legged pants.
The directions for the Gaucho Pants are written in Japanese.
There are no images to go with the directions, only an illustration with numbers that correspond to the steps.
Your Layout For Sewing Success
Here is your blueprint for making the Gaucho Pants:
- Sew front crotch seam
- Sew front & back pants at the side seams
- Sew waistband to pants
- Insert the elastic through the waistband casing
- Hem bottom of the pants
- Sew back crotch seam and
- Sew inseam of the pants
Ta-da, the Gaucho Pants are complete!
Final Thoughts:
We were surprised by how stylish Eight looked in his Gaucho Pants.
He is so cool!

I’ve always been a fan of palazzo and gaucho pants! I just really like comfy things.
They look great on 8, he really can pull off any look he wants, doesn’t he? I’m still successfully resisting him! *wipes sweat off her forehead*
Neon your comments always makes us smile. 🙂
8 is such a fun model, we didn’t realize how photogenic he is.
Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment!
