Retro legs

Hey so yesterday I didn't stop at just making a vest...I decided it was time to use this fabric I'd thrifted awhile back (2yrs maybe?):

It probably cost less than $5 and I always imagined I'd make a winter dress out of it one day as the material is quite heavy & warm. Instead wearing these flares yesterday inspired me:
(Old denim flares I had taken to with a bottle of bleach)

So I decided to make some crazy retro flares:

I love them! Especially seeing as these are the 1st pair of pants I've made from scratch in years...I used another pair of stretch denim flares from my wardrobe as my guide and the zipper was from my stash.
