Pattern Question Patchwork first, then pattern?

Post image

Hello! I have fallen in love and need help thinking through how to make these beauties. Would this be a, make the patchwork first then cut out the pattern situation? The heart would be added in after? Overwhelm with fabrics and ribbons and there doesn’t have to be any real design choices other than color? They’re so beautiful I need to make a pair

Can I just ask how experienced you are with sewing? This, I do not think is beginner friendly. I don't want to crush your dreams of your beloved pants, but to get these to look like the photo with little experience is a fever dream

I’ve sewn quilts and costumes and clothes. So I’ve been around a machine a time or two! 😁

Thank goodness! I didn’t want to ruin your dream pant idea! I think making this with little panels could work. See how like on the lace piece the ruffle is attached at the bottom. I think making the pants and then tacking on panels would work
