I had my first pattern tester experience for one of my favorite companies, Daughter Judy. (Pattern testing is just doing a trial sew of something before the pattern is released and putting in notes about the pattern and instructions.) This is an elastic-back pant that’s coming in a couple weeks and I would never have picked this silhouette on my own, but I kind of love it?
(I’m going to make Doc take real pictures so I can post more detail.)
This is actually my second pair; the instructions for the exposed front zip kicked my ass the first time (the bottom opening should have been square): 
But the pattern designer put a helpful video in the tester Slack group (and I think will add more detail to the instructions) so my second try turned out great:
Remember, you can be at any skill level and mess things up! But you can also try again!
That is some plaid matching perfection!
