I'd love to try this in an oil cloth. Have you ever sewn with oil cloth and would it hold up for a jacket like this?

Very good tutorial and that is exactly how I would do it if I was including elastic in the band.<br /><br />The yoga pants I have, bought to copy, has a band about 6 inches wide that you can then fold down doubled for some extra support. That is super comfy too. It doesn't have any elastic in it--just the fabric band.<br /><br />So you can definitely do what works for you and what you are most comfortable with.

They really prefer soft pants vs. jeans and I can't seem to find any that are both the right length and the right size in the waist right now.

It really isn't too heavy. I wanted to be able to wear it in the Spring too--something to just maybe cut the briskness a bit.<br /><br />I have made yoga style pants. I might have to do a post on it, but we've made skirts with that similar waistband too. <br /><br />http://creativechicksatplay.blogspot.com/2012/04/chevron-craziness.html<br /><br />You can make a casing and still insert elastic--just make the casing the same size as you are and then you get the flat look, but with a little extra support or insurance with some elastic.

Must be heavier than regular cotton. <br /><br />Also, have you ever sewn yoga pants? Something comfy but not slouchy looking? I like the flat, stiffer waistband of yoga pants vs. the casing/gathered look of sweats but not sure how to sew it. Any advice from a clothing guru would be very helpful.
