After attending Fashion Design School at FIDM and working in the apparel industry for over 20 years, Hilary has honed her skills in garment fit and technical design. In the recent past, she taught Pattern drafting, Draped design, and Garment construction at the Santa Rosa Junior College. The birth of her daughter, Fia, who serves as her inspiration and muse, inspired her to start designing and creating patterns for children's play clothes\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e. Thus, \"Fennel\" was born - named after the culinary, medicinal, and dye plant that has naturalized itself to thrive in Sonoma County where Hilary resides.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBeing a mother, Hilary sees first-hand how kids move and grow, enabling her to design garments that encourage ease of movement during play and span frequent growth spurts. Fennel patterns are thoughtfully drafted to accommodate the unique proportions, movements, and needs of children’s bodies. The garments are versatile and sturdy, meticulously constructed to become treasured heirlooms. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHilary strives to make her sewing patterns an enjoyable learning tool.

The front rise of the pants is designed to sit comfortably below their bellies, while the back rise is extended to adequately cover their bottoms when they bend over. As a result, the back rise is notably longer than the front rise, ensuring a comfortable and functional fit. Furthermore, recognizing that young children frequently squat to investigate their environment, we drafted the inseam of the Easy Pant to facilitate free movement while squatting.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSEWING LEVEL: \u003c\/strong\u003eBeginner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSIZES\u003c\/strong\u003e: Child 1-6 years\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGARMENT FEATURES\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Elastic waist accommodates growing bodies\u003cbr\u003e- Comfortable low front rise\u003cbr\u003e- Extended back rise for coverage\u003cbr\u003e- Inseam designed for unrestricted movement\u003cbr\u003e- Slightly tapered pant leg holds a neat cuff\u003cbr\u003e- Reinforced seams for durability\u003cbr\u003e- 2 Patch pockets\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHIS PATTERN INCLUDES:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Detailed instructions with clear illustrations for each step\u003cbr\u003e- Nested Print at Home Files (compatible with US Letter and A4) with Layers\u003cbr\u003e- Large Format File (AO\/Copyshop)\u003cbr\u003e- Projector File\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFABRIC\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003cbr\u003eThe Easy Pant is intended for woven fabrics weighing between\u003cbr\u003e5-8 ounces.
