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 14:07 Outro Zoom Private Pants Fitting https://jsterndesigns.com/product/custom-pants-fitting/ Join my new Facebook Group here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/2844012669147142 Love my cutting mat?
