FAQs

What kind of fabric should I use?

Use stretch denim fabric with at least 2% Lycra.

What is the skill level required?

Intermediate.

What sizes are available?

Sizes 0-20.

Can I use different types of fabric?

How do I measure for the pattern?

What if the jeans don't fit perfectly?

What is a pocket stay?

Troubleshooting

Jeans are too tight in the waist.

Check your measurements and compare them to the pattern size chart. Consider grading between sizes or making adjustments to the waistband.

Pockets are not symmetrical.

Ensure that your fabric is properly aligned before cutting. Double-check pocket placement using the pattern markings and instructions.

Jeans are too long or too short.

Adjust the pattern length before cutting by adding or subtracting length at the lengthen/shorten lines.
