Course Description

Pants can be challenging to draft from scratch. Common issues include:
  • Unflattering crotch bulges
  • Fit issues around the thigh and calf area 
  • Can't draft the perfect shape pants from custom measurements   

In this course, I will demonstrate simple techniques for constructing custom-tailored pants from personalized measurements that fit any body type.

In step 1, I will demonstrate how to take detailed body measurements.

In step 2, I will demonstrate how to transfer the body measurements onto paper to create our first mock-up pattern. Once we correct the pattern, we will begin to construct our pants with slash pockets. 

In step 3, I will demonstrate how to sew your pants pattern using professional finishings and techniques.

This course is beginner-friendly and for advanced seamstresses who have basic sewing knowledge
