Troubleshooting
Pattern pieces don't align.
Double-check your cutting accuracy and ensure the pattern pieces are correctly aligned according to the instructions. If necessary, measure and adjust before sewing.
Pants are too tight or loose.
Review the pattern for the selected size and make any necessary adjustments to the fit. Consider making a muslin (test garment) first to check the fit before using your final fabric.
Drawstring casing is too narrow.
Check the width of your drawstring before creating the casing. If it's too thick, consider using a different drawstring or adjusting the casing width slightly.
