I'm a few years late to this party but just wanted to thank you. I've found your skills building videos incredibly helpful and I'm trying to work my way through them all! 🙂

I cannot thank you enough for these tutorials regarding fitting pants.

Rewatching episodes 3,4 and 5. This has been a great help in fitting. Will let you know what the end result is. Keep making these mini series, they are very useful.

'Mammal coming to play in your pants '😂😂😂. That is so funny 🤣

Actually, I DID find this fun to watch. It is just what I needed!!

Thank you so much for this tutorial!! I have a favorite pair of pants and also shop at thrift stores where i find clothes that could use some adjustments but i didnt know how to do that!!! So great!!! Your the best!! I was so frustrated seeing pants look like this and having to put nice pants back!!! Going shopping!! Lol!!

All your videos are fabulous, thank you so much for being brave enough to model pants, it’s really useful to see what badly fitting pants look like and what to do to correct it.

Had the not watched these videos I would have ruined good pants! I took out minimal fabric and they are perfect! Thank you!

Wonderful!

Thank you so much for this series. You have explained things brilliantly and increased my understanding of how to fit trousers immensely! I salute your bravery and commitment to filming it all. Seeing the adjustments on a real body is most helpful way to understand them. I am recommending this series to anyone I know who wants to make trousers. Thank you once again 🙂

I’m surprised you don’t have more subscribers. This is such a high quality tutorial. So well explained and not a bunch of useless hard to follow information. I’m really enjoying watching your videos.

It’s ok. The channel has had a normal growth and my number one priority is helping people love their sewing. This series was a labour of love for everyone :)

I love this series and the desert mammal description had me giggling.

This was excellent. I had no idea. I hated making pants because I had no clue how to adjust things. Thank you.

Thank you, Karina, for doing this pants mini series. You are an amazing teachers and I appreciate all the information you share with us. Love your voice - it is so calming - and also love the sound of the birds when outside.

This was really amazing. You've really put your heart and soul into this series and it will be a classic for a long time, I'm sure. You teach the things that no pattern ever tells you but that are essential for garment sewing success at home. Thanks, Karina. 💗💗💗

I was discouraged wanting to give up making pants altogether. But you pant fitting videos have been so helpful that I will give it another go. Thank you so much.

Hi karina. NOT boring at all!! Fascinating, informative and entertaining. Thank you

I feel like you're a fitting wizard 🪡🪄🔮 and you're just teaching us for free! These videos are so valuable, thank you!

I’m glad you like them. I put a huge effort into making them the best that they can be.

Fabulous job Karina! I can really tell you put all of your effort into this series. I'm a visual learner, so this is extremely helpful. I carry a lot of my weight in my hips & thighs, even my calves are larger than most. This series will be invaluable for me. The fit you have in all of your garments are fantastic. Because you tackle fit in your VLOGs is what made me subscribe to your channel in the first place. Most people don't take the time to share the knowledge of how to get good fit. Most patterns don't even tackle the subject of fit. For those of us who didn't go to school to learn the trade of being a seamstress, this is much needed content! Thank you for sharing your knowledge. You have inspired me to try my hand at sewing some new pants.

I am learning SO much from this series, and it has given me more confidence in my sewing. Keep safe, keep smiling and definitely keep sewing.

Thankyou so much Karina. So useful! Pam

I’m so glad i remembered you put this series out. I didn’t need it at the time, but 3 years later, here i am with a baggy bum in the pants i’m working on. Thankyou as always for putting these technique videos out. They’re a great resource.

Excellent instruction. I can't wait for the next video, thank you

I almost always have this issue with the fit of my pants. Thank you for the explanation!

Thanks so much. Very very helpful and easy to understand 👍🏼👍🏼

Thanks for this latest addition to the ultimate pant fitting saga, including some heroic muslin making! I'm sure I will come back to this playlist a lot for reference, as will many others. :-)

Thank you Karina. Enjoying this mini series. xx

So many smart things to learn - really love this - thanks a lot :-)

Brilliant explanation and demonstrations - you are a truly gifted teacher! I'll wait as long as it takes for your excellent series to be completed. I have some lovely fabric waiting to be cut and sewn. Take care!

Showing the problem as well as the finished solution is an excellent tutorial. Thank you for all of your effort in producing these videos.

Thank you so much 😊. There’s one more in this series: the thighs and then I’ll have the finale.

Wow, thank you for all the work you put into this series. Not only the planning, but to have to make pants that don't fit properly, then to show how to fix them and explain the process. This must have taken so long. It is so helpful and very much appreciated! Your videos are amazing, Karina, and I'm so thankful for all you do.

so love this series! thanks so much!

You are too funny Karina. Thank you for your courage, it's not easy talking about about those big mammals with the split toes. All joking aside those fit issues are probably the most common and horrible looking issues we deal with in pant fits. This will be such a big help, thank you.

Thank you so much for your videos!! I’m a beginner and learning so much for your videos!

Thank you for the tutorial on scooping the front rise and letting out the hip area a bit.

Another brilliant vlog Karina ! Thank you ❤️

So so helpful. Thank you for taking time. I’m sure this will be helpful for my nemesis - pants!!

I have learnt so much from these videos, thank you for taking the time to do them x

Extremely helpful! Thank you 🌻

So useful. Thank you, very thorough.

Thank you for this series. So much information and help .

Very helpful! Thank you for sharing! ☺️

Excellent series, learned a lot! Thanks for sharing and putting in the hard work.

This is so great!!! ❤

Thank you very much for this. You are a great teacher.

This is so helpful since making my first pair of pants! Thank you!

This was an awesome tutorial. Not only did u talk about fitting issues, you demonstrated in a sample garment what it looks like. I’ve been sewing for a long time. Sewing pants was easy for me. As I got older with body changes it became a challenge. I have several of the fitting issues you demonstrated. I am a visual learner, your tutorial is worth me buying you a few cups of koffee. Thanks.

Alethia I am exactly in the same boat. I could sew pants for myself since Highschool and always got great flattering results , never having to alter anything but the darts to have a beautiful pair of pants. Then sometime after turning 50 my bum changed shape and ready to wear no longer fit and patterns became a nightmare. This video explains so clearly how to figure out the problem and fix it.

Best explanation that I’ve seen! Thank you.

This was immensely helpful!!! Thank you sooo much.❤

Thank you SO much!

Thank you for all your fun instruction. It has been really helpful.

Thank you so much, I learned a lot from this mini series 😎💜 x

Thank you so much for this wonderful series. I have several pants fitting booklets that have come with patterns but the drawings were nowhere near as clear as your visuals and I appreciate you doing this on camera for us to see it. You are a wonderful teacher who inspires us to make better fitting clothes. I have paid to have videos to explain and they are not as engaging or informative as you are.xx

love your description of the desert animal , this mini series has been fantastic thank you for doing this for us

Best tutorial ever, thank you!

Hugely helpful video. Thank you for the effort you put into these. Janet.

Fantastic tutorial! Thank you so much for being so brave to help us learn these important things.

Thank you! Such helpful info... Very good explanations

I find these lessons to be quite fun and I am feeling excited to try all of these! Thank you so so much.

Thank you !☺️☺️❤️

You are truly a sport to go to so much to teach!

It makes sense now! Thank You

Thank you so much. You explain things so well. I particularly appreciate the tiny pattern examples, they really put focus on the concepts

Thank you! I've struggled with this theory my whole life.

Very helpful, thank you!☺❤

thank you - lovely clear tutorial. Gives confidence to us sewers to have a go!!

This is a brilliant short course on how to fit pants better. I loved it.

Oh wow. I thought I needed to deepen the curve for my curvy bum. This is so helpful.

I've been trying to find something to tell me how to sort out the excess at the front so thank you so much for this.

Another awesome video. These have been soooo helpful and quite surprising what a difference such a small alteration can make. Thanks Karina.

I remembered that you had made these but was not ready at the time, Now I am studying every detail, and applying it to my first 'block' altering a commercial pattern. Thanks so much for the great information :)

A really amazing series. Best I have come across, and I have been looking!

Thanks Karina. The most helpful series for pants fitting on KZread! Beautifully explained and demonstrated.

Brilliant tutorial. I have been trying to understand this for ages. Thanks for the visuals.

This really helped me with a project I'm working on, thank you!

Amazing..thank you so much for all the work you did for all of us…. ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you for such a great series - finally I've made pants that fit - its been a revelation!! Love that you show it on yourself so we can see what the problems are. I have just discovered your channel so will be working my way through your other videos!

Thank you Karina! Great video with lots of info..food for thought for me. The visuals are perfect.💕💐

Another excellent class! I never knew how much I didn't know about pant fitting strategies! So much good information. Thank you, Karina.

I should have watched this episode before I decided I could just change the crotch curve on a pattern I had never made. I thought I would need more fabric so I made a way shallower curve pretty much all the way up the back. No harm done though, I just sewed it in further when they were done. Looking forward to the next episode, and I'm planning to watch the others again. Thank you for going to all the trouble.

Thank you so much for this amazing tutorial
