Does anyone have any idea where I might find a culottes pattern for a girls size 10-12? I need to make some for my niece and I am having a tremendously difficult time finding any.
Thanks!

Kwik Sew has a culotte pattern that has XS-S-M-L-XL...I'm sure if you try the XS and adjust, it might work...(I couldn't find any others...unless you wanna make your own pattern and it was for adults too.)

www.candleonthehill.com sells a culotte pattern. No affiliation and I have never used their patterns, so I don't know how well they are drafted.

Look on ebay!! I recently got a culottes pattern for adults on there, but if you type in "culottes pattern" in the search box on the home page, you will find some for girls also!!

Simplicity's line of 'That's So Raven' for girls' has a pattern I think might be what you are calling culottes - if they are what some also call gauchos. Here Simplicity 4264 (http://www.simplicity.com/dv1_v4.cfm?design=4264) is a girls' pattern in knit.

The pattern has been made up by 3 different people over at Pattern Review (http://sewing.patternreview.com/cgi-bin/search.pl?search=search&patternid=11826&CompanyID=45&PatternNumber=4264) , all with good results! I too have this pattern in my stash, just haven't gotten around to making it! But I have allot of the Lizzie McGuire & Raven patterns as they fit my youngest dd so well. :wink:

Thank you, Laura, so sorry I've taken so long to respond :) I didn't know there were more posts, guess I must not have something set right because I don't get notified :throw: I'm headed over to check out the pattern now, thanks again!
