Call For Testers

Would you like to pattern test for Helen’s Closet? I am thrilled to be ready for testers of my first apparel pattern, I need your help making sure it is up to snuff! Without further ado, I present to you the Winslow Culottes! Winslow Culottes Sewing Pattern by Helen's ClosetThe Winslow Culottes are the perfect addition to your spring and summer wardrobe. They are easy to style, effortlessly chic, and can be made at any length. Instructions for shorts, just above the knee, midi-culottes, and palazzo pants are included, but you can choose any length you want and make them your own! The Winslow Culottes have a fitted waist and a very loose fit around the hips and legs. They close at the center back with an invisible zipper and feature inseam pockets and box pleats. The Winslow Culottes present the illusion of a skirt at first glance, but are noticeably pants when you are on the move. As the owner of several pairs now, I can speak to their versatility & comfort. I wear them to work as well as biking, shopping, and lounging on the weekends - the possibilities are endless!
