In this video I go over the Dawn pattern from Megan Nielsen, describe the features you find in chinos / khakis/ twill trousers , describe how to make these modifications, show some fitting updates, and show the final product.

Starting pattern: Megan Nielsen Dawn Curve Jeans https://megannielsen.com/collections/sewing-patterns/products/dawn-curve-jeans-4-in-1-sewing-pattern

Fabric is from GStreet in Rockville, MD. Pocket lining is from a 25c fat quarter from Walmart.

It's shown with a Love Notions Melody Dolman from quilting cotton.
