Thank you for this tutorial. Can you help me with the following: because the straight outseam is drafted at an angle when putting the outseam along the selvage the hem line is at an angle as well. Therefore I cannot get a straight hem. How would I remedy that?
Hi, first thank you for this tutorial. I've bought and tried others to do selvedge patterns and your is the best. My questions is, the knee measurement in your example "C" is 6" but you demonstrate it at 5 3/4", is there a reason for the change?
Thank you so much for the video! I know I am one of the many people who asked for this video and I was so excited to see you made it. I do have one question after completing this pattern: I understand that the FT & BK rise for this pattern have 1/4” seam allowance. At what step can I alter this seam allowance to my own preference without effecting my inseam? I ask this because I like to typically use 3/8” for FT rise and 3/4” back rise (to account for the flat felled seam).
You could change the seam allowances on the front and back at the waist to 3/8" without any changes. You could just sew it at 3/8" instead of 1/4", but not for the other seams. Thank you for your question.
I tried this method and waist is 34 Hip is 42 Knee is 17 When drafting the outseam line from the hip (E) and meeting to the knee and meeting to the hem, the measurement for the hem is WAY too small. How could I remedy this?
For the selvage jean the bottom measurement has to be larger. You can do that with regular jeans, without enlarging the bottom. Make the bottom 2 inches larger and that should work. Thank you for your question. MR. EWS
Yes, I believe so. I measured my seat while in a neutral standing position and in a squat position to mimic the seat movement. It was exactly 3 inches larger than my original seat measurement. It worked for me, but that doesn’t guarantee it will work for all. Good luck!

does he still do the academy
Yes if you are in Illinois, we still offer live classes.
Hello,
Why do you add 3 inches to the hip? Is it because the fabric doesn’t stretch?
Yes, I believe so. I measured my seat while in a neutral standing position and in a squat position to mimic the seat movement. It was exactly 3 inches larger than my original seat measurement. It worked for me, but that doesn’t guarantee it will work for all. Good luck!
