  • Опубликовано: 2 авг 2024
  • Today on Fit Tip Tuesday I'm going to share the tale of a set of wrinkles... on two different pairs of jeans on two different ladies. From the back view, both have wrinkles... If that were the only view I had, I would suggest scooping to pick up extra length. But, the back view does not tell the whole story. Checking the side view can add insight as to what is going on. Join me to read the wrinkles from all sides and see how to smooth them.
    00:00 Introduction
    00:46 Wrinkles on the back legs
    01:26 How the side view reveals more about what is causing the wrinkles
    02:37 Side view showing you need more length in crotch points
    03:38 How to adjust pants pattern to add length to crotch points
    07:33 How to add length without adding to crotch points (for slender legs)
    08:56 Side view showing too much vertical length on the back leg
    09:10 How to adjust the pattern to pick up excess length on back leg
    11:00 Scoop back crotch transfers fabric from below crotch level to above it
    12:00 What to do with the fabric transferred above the crotch level
    12:39 How to remove the extra fabric (vertical length) from your pattern
    13:31 You may need to let out the side seams if the legs get too snug

    Thank you. I have spent hours this past several weeks trying to make a toile for pants NOT yoga . Just about rid of the butt wrinkles shortening the fabric across the thigh and narrowing up the pant leg keeping the side seam straight. I am petite with thicker thighs and a slightly prominent butt. Will apply your principles and see how I make out.

    When identifying if the inseam is too far fore or aft is it personal preference or are there wrinkles to look for? Your wrinkle analysis is wonderful!

    • @JSternDesigns
      @JSternDesigns  2 года назад

      The inseam is really a style line … you can position it where it looks good. If the crotch fits right, the forward or back position of the inseam should not cause wrinkles

    @chrisboyd3626 2 года назад +2

    Thank you, thank you! This is great, very easy to understand, especially when you show where the fabric goes after the adjustment! On the blue pants, when you make the adjustment, you lengthen the back crotch seam. Will you have to now lengthen the front crotch seem to match? Also, if you pleat out the excess in the back, will you have to adjust the front crotch seam?

    • @JSternDesigns
      @JSternDesigns  2 года назад

      Hi Chris, The front and back crotch seams do not "sew together" so you do not need to make equal adjustments to them like you would to seams that sew together like inseams. The same is true for taking length out of the crotch seams to adjust the rise. Let me know if this makes sense! Thank you so much! Jen

    Hi, fascinating techniques.
    My fittings are pretty good now except for baggy fabric across the front in the lower part of the zip area, do you have any suggestions please?

    • @JSternDesigns
      @JSternDesigns  Год назад

      That sounds like it may be an issue with your center front edge. If you have a rectangle shape and if your pants pattern has an angled CF edge (angling away from the CF edge at the waistline end)... When you zip up your pants, the angled CF edge acts like a dart... .and it pushes the waistline at the side seam up to side on a defined waistline... If your waistline is a similar measurement to your tummy/high hip, there's nowhere for the fabric to go, so it pushes down into the front fly area. Straighten the CF edge to customize the pattern to fit your shape. Here's a tutorial that explains this. ruclips.net/video/29iAeDLmvAQ/видео.html (Customizing the shape starts at 09:52) Hope this helps, Thanks for fitting along with me

      ...Ha, something didn't get cut off all the way. I started talking about getting rid of the fabric above the crotch... then screwed up.

  • @cindyboyett3462
    @cindyboyett3462 Год назад +1

    Thank you for your clear directions. I have pants I'm altering for a very large, big, and tall man. The rise isn't long enough, and there are wrinkles in the front. A gusset doesn't work. That creates too much fabric. I believe the solution is scooping down. How far down can you scoop? Because of his size, he can afford to go down quite a bit and still have the pants hang correctly, but these are dress pants, so I don't want to ruin them. Until I stitch and actually cut away the extra fabric, I won't understand if the fit is correct. Any suggestions? Thank you!

    • @JSternDesigns
      @JSternDesigns  Год назад +1

      ...Yes, baste the scoop down and see if it looks better. You can keep scooping down until you think you've removed enough fabric and created enough negative space for him to sit in. If you remove the seam above the scoop, this will release the fabric so you can see how it's fitting.... (also, I would scoop a little at a time... if you scoop too low, that will make the inseam too short, creating a new problem.)... Hope this helps!

  • @robynnbryar1977

    So if you suggest a 2" seam on your sides for fitting, what do you suggest for other seams such as crotch and center back?

    • @JSternDesigns
      @JSternDesigns  2 года назад +1

      I keep those seams the same as what's included in the pattern... It's hard to see what's going on in the crotch/inseam if you have bulky seam allowances there. Thank you for fitting along with me!

    With your help I have a pants muslin that I am very happy with. It has been a long journey. THANK YOU!
    Now what adjustments do I make to sew the pants in different fabrics, like Tencel, wool, denim, or to add a lining? Is it just a matter of changing the side seams? After so much work I do not want to change to someone else's pattern. I like the basic muslin - high waist, waistband, and zipper. Just to use a variety of fabrics.

    • @JSternDesigns
      @JSternDesigns  Год назад

      I'm so happy to hear! Because it's a basic pattern, you can experiment with different fabrics that have the same stretch as the fabric you used to fit it. I would add an inch or so to the side seams and along the waistline for "safety"... Baste the side seams together to see if you need to let them out or take them in ...and you can lower the front or back waistline slightly if needed. Hope this helps!

    How do you know if you should move the inseam forward or backward?

    • @JSternDesigns
      @JSternDesigns  Год назад

      :) The inseam is actually a styleline... you can move it where it's most flattering! Look at where it is along your inner thigh. If you can see it & it's not flattering, move it back a little bit. If it looks like it's too far back on your inner thigh, move it forward a little.
