Do you have sewing patterns that you love but that are not the right size for you? Here’s the best way to change the size, whether you want to increase or decrease. In this video, I’ll also show how I transfer sewing patterns to hard manilla paper to reuse time and again in my classroom, and then I’ll show you how I quickly sew up a great pant pattern: S9235. It looks like Joann’s still has this pattern! https://www.joann.com/p/simplicity-pattern-s9235-misses-pants-size-u5-16-18-20-22-24/18280792.html
