This is such an amazing and useful video! I won't have to make this particular adjustment but I can see how I can apply it in reverse! Thank you so very much!

You have a wonderfully calm voice :-) I signed up for your class last year thru Pattern Review, but have been to timid to attempt it. This tutorial has inspired me to sign into your class in the New Year and get to work! Thank you, Alberta

Thanks so much Jennifer for the help with my pattern! I think I will try to make all the changes (original and now these) we have talked about in paper and then make a new muslin.

I’m now super lost! So many adjustments. I like to Upcycle ♻️ old 👖 to new ones. I’ve been honing in on my skills and watching your videos trying to make the perfect fitting jeans.

Fitting jeans is hard! The best advice I can give you is to take it step by step. Drawing accurate grainlines will help you see where you need to add or remove fabric. Keep in mind that every adjustment you make affects other parts of the muslin. Keep me posted if you have specific questions! Thanks for fitting along with me

This is timely as just last week I had this very problem. I’m anxious to see how it turns out now.

GREAT idea the one of using grainline and Balance line to fit pants! Your knowledge is so helpful for me, Jane. In Italy I find no one who is able to teach about fitting, did you know?

Thank you for this. It is the first very clear explanation of fixing this problem. I may be one of those who may need the angle to be close to the centre back. but I keep thinking that a 35 inch waist and a 45 inch hip cannot be that unusual. Pants that I have made this way have looked good (although I also have to make a large thigh or knockkneed adjustment to make the legs hang properly). I keep thinking there must be a way to straighten the grainline and perhaps not need the number of adjustments to the back and legs of pants that I have to do. I am going to try your suggestions on my next muslin and see what results. Thanks!

If the vertical grainline is close to your CB seam and they are hanging properly, you may be right… & you don’t need to fix it!

Hi Fantastic video. Thank you so much. I think (hope) it might be the answer to my pants fitting woes. I've already made a flat butt adjustment (Anne Rowley's adjustment). to the pattern I'd like to improve, which helped. However, would it be better to start again from scratch - without the fba - and use your ideas first? Hope I've explained this clearly enough!!

Thank you :) I'm not familiar with Anne's flat butt adjustment ...I'm guessing if you need a flat butt adjustment you don't need an fba (Full Butt Adjustment)?? Is that what you're asking?

Thank you for the clear explanations and solutions. It is very helpful to understand why a fitting issue occurs. I'm sewing a winter coat and just came across a problem with the sleeves. They turn inwards and create a gaping in the upper front arm area. This is a one piece sleeve pattern and I've paid attention to straight grain line. Could you please advise what else would cause this problem?

Where should the grainline be on the pattern piece? On the back pattern piece, does the grainline divide the hem in half?

@JSternDesigns

Yes, establish your grainline from the center of the hem... then go straight up from there!

How do I determine the slope of the straight part of the back curve that best fits my shape?

@JSternDesigns

2 жыл бұрын

I think the best way to figure that out is to see if your pant muslin is sliding down when you sit... If it is, you need more curved part, if it doesn't & the rise is not correct, lengthen or shorten the top of the straight part at the waistline. You can also add more to the crotch wedges if you need more room for your inner thigh (which will contribute more to the curved parts)

What body shape works best in pants where the straight part of the back crotch curve is more slanted, say 30-45 degrees?

У вас так интересно. Жалко что нет перевода.

Hi Re my message below. The FBA was made as the pants collapse under my butt. The issue now is diagonal dragline sfrom knee to hip.

Have you seen my new series of videos that outline the Top Down Center Out Pants Fitting Method? You may be able to fit your pants easier working with a stable non-stretch waistband that's separate from a one leg muslin. I'm having really good results with it! Here's a link to the playlist kzread.info/head/PLseQVksFDkNsN64DwwVI5Phfgbuzn07zK
