Sewing stretch pants without zip
The stretch pants use the same pattern except there is no need for a zipper fly, which make them very simple to sew. You will need some wide elastic, measured to your waist plus a little extra length for seam allowance.
These pants can also be sewn including zips, inserted for example in side seams, in either elastic or non-elastic fabric. For examples of where and how to insert zips see the instructions for non-elastic skirt. Remember that you may want to choose a larger size if you are making pants in non-elastic fabric.
BACK
Sew the back tucks.
Sew the back and front seams.
Line up the pants with right sides facing in. Sew the side seams.
Line up the inside leg seams and sew. You may want to do a couple of extra rows at the crotch for re-enforcement.
Measure the waist of your pants, then check your waistband length,
you may need to shorten it.
Press in waistband edges 1 cm. Fold and press in half.
ATTACHING WAISTBAND
Measure and press waistband as instructed. 
Pin the waistband to the outside of the pants with the join at the back, making sure you pass one end of the waistband tube through the other end so the fabric is overlapped. 
Attach to the pants in small stitches, as this has more stretch (or use an overlock machine on stretch setting). 
Once attached, open up the space between the waistband ends and thread the elastic through.
Join the elastic ends with a few rows of stitching then close the waistband over itself again and stitch over the top.
