This is a great review! I have been trying to make my own jeans for about a year now. Ugh!! Measurements can be frustrating, but I keep trying lol. I have those same patterns. So I keep moving forward. Thank you.
Thanks for sharing! I made one pair of Dawn shorts and really struggled with the fit but you are making me reconsider trying them again. I just tried my shorts on after watching your video and they aren’t as bad as I remembered
Amazing review! And I love your finished garments. I actually made up the Dawn jean but I wasn’t great at fitting yet and it became a UFO. And it will never be finished, so that twill will become a bag. I do want to give it another shot since I’ve learned more fitting techniques.
Thank you! You should definitely give it another chance especially since the pattern is $23 maybe start with the shorts so that you can perfect the fit without using as much fabric. You’ve got this friend! A twill bag is a great idea for the the UFO pair.
You did a lot of work to get a good fit and it really paid off. I want to make a pair, but I've been dragging my feet for a while, because I am a bit intimidated and a bit lazy. You have inspired me, though.
I appreciate your experience making these! I am currently using the top down center out method on this pair of jeans. I've never made jeans before and I struggle to find RTW jeans, so I'm hopeful I can make a pair that fit me like a dream. Heres to hoping ;)!
How timely is this video pattern review! I just ordered the Dawn jeans pattern last week and am waiting for it to arrive. I want to make the wide leg cropped version. It is one of my goals this year to make pants/jeans that fit. I also am short waisted and have to modify the upper back area of pants and sometimes tops. The pant fitting challenge is real! I will definitely consider the suggestions you gave! All your versions look amazing.
I love all the versions that you made. I'm in the process of making the cropped version of the Dawn jeans so I appreciate your review of the pattern.
Thank you! I definitely want to make another pair of the cropped jeans that are more comfortable.
This is a great review!

I remember your shorts and they are very cute! You should definitely make a pant version
Thank you for sharing your jeans journey. Learned a lot, have just sewn a full circle denim skirt, I’m in love the denim too, I’m a cutter too. 😂
I bet your skirt is nice!😊

You can totally do it! ❤️

I hope that you are able to do that as well. Good luck to you in your Jean making journey ❤️
