Some of this was confusing as I watched. Hopefully it will make more sense when I’m actually doing it. Thanks for the video as I really needed to see this.
Thank you!!
That makes so much sense!!
I struggle with this so much,and your explanation was perfect.
I wish I had this info 30 + years ago, I have a long rise and have always had problems with proper/comfortable fitting pants. Once I find a brand/style of jeans that fit, I have to buy several. Making my own perfectly fitting pants is a game changer!
I have a hack which I do for this,it’s I join two tape measures at the 1inch head to head, then place th join at the enter crutch,so you Conrad both measurements separately at the same time
Great class tutorial. Thanks E & M
Thank you so much as I have been wanting to make pants for such a long time and now you have given me a lot of confidence to give it a go xx thanks for your wonderful video
Thank you. That makes so much sense to me now. 😊 fabulous tutorial
This was very helpful. I was just telling someone how the crotch area is where I struggle. I’m definitely going to try this method. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. 😊
Great idea. I'll try that next time I make pants. Thank you.
I love this channel I learn so much and you make it so easy!!! Thank you 😊!!!
Thank you so much. I made the free pj's and the bottoms were too large. Will try this and make another set 😊
So helpful!! Makes sense!! Thank you for the visuals. Looking forward to trying this. Of course this is added to my already lengthy list 😆
Glad it was helpful!
Wow this is very interesting, I will have to watch this again when I try makimg myself a pair of pants!
That is amazing! Thank you.
You are so welcome!
Love, Love, Love this video 😊 this is easily explained. Now I'm not afraid to try sewing pants. ♥️♥️♥️😊
Thank you! Very happy this helped!
I think you did a great job explaining this. Because I understood how to take my measurements but didn’t know how to apply the measurements to the pattern. I can’t wait to use this knowledge. Thanks so much for your videos.
You are so welcome!
Perfect thanks Diana. Very helpful 🤓🏴
No worries! I'm so happy this helped!
That was great. I'm starting to try and make clothes for me better so this is really helpful, explained well and clearly!
So glad it was helpful!
Thanks for the information.
You bet!
Very helpful!
So glad!
This was helpful. I think it will eliminate saggy butt problem in many of my pants.
Thank you! That helps especially saying the side seams need to be the same. I probably wouldn’t have thought of that - even though I should lol
Your information was useful for.those of us who have made pants. But for a new to sewing person you needed all those numbers written down for viewers (and you) to keep straight so not confusing. Get an erase board, or even a sheet of poster paper taped to wall and write numbers and addition and subtraction problems down. Then point numbers out as needed in your ecplanation.
Thanks. I was about to give up making pants
Have avoided making pants because of this issue thanks for the tutorial Diana
No worries! Glad it helped!
A band of 1" elastic at any circumference stays in place and allows you to accurately measure easily. I also check the measurement from my waist to the top of a chair while seated. This corresponds to the crotch depth line on a pants pattern.
This was so helpful!!!! Pants always sit too high on me so it’s great to know how to properly shorten my rise!!!
Glad it was helpful! 😊
So, when you are say to take the waistband into consideration, does that mean that it’s adding more to the crouch depth?
I understand, however, one question-is there any ease in the rise?
I was wondering the same thing. With those measurements a relaxed fit pant would go up the crotch like leggings or skinny jeans, right?
What is a paper back pants u are taking about? I am new to sewing. Try to learn
Thank you ,Thank you so much ,my pants never fit right , Happy StPatricks day🇮🇪
May I ask which pattern you used for your top?
I need this SO bad because I made the paperbag pants and the crotch is baggy. I had no clue how to fix them.
You said your rise length is 9 half in front crotch and 15” in the back. When sewing the pants pieces together the back is going to be higher than the front. So how do I line the pieces up when sewing them together ? FIRST I sew the backs crotch together then I sew the front crotch together. Then I open up the front and then I open up the back and i lay them flat with right sides facing. Then I line up the center crotches together. Then I sew the in seams. After that I line up the side seams at the top where the waist is how is it going to line up if the back of your measurement was 15 and your front measurement was 9. I just do get it.
The sides will align and the front will be shorter than the back in the center only. Your steps were correct.
OK, so if I line up the left top front scene by the way, and the right front scene above the way and so them all the way down and because the front crouch is shorter than the back crouch, wouldn’t that make my leg length at the bottom off by a couple inchesI don’t think it’s gonna be level
OK, I’m redoing my sentence. So when I line up the left seam at top of waist and do the same on the right side. Then I put the crouch together and sew the inseams together.. I think the bottom of the ankle length will be un even..because the back crotch is 13 and my front crotch is 9. oh I am not attaching a waste. I am just going to flip over the extra at the top of the waist and sew it that will be where I’m gonna put the elastic in. I just can not figure out when I go all the way around and sew it that the back way in the front was if I do 2 inches I can’t get it to be even all the way around cause I know the back supposed to be a little higher than the front, but can you tell me how I could sew that to be even all the way around, please help
This was a tiny bit confusing at first, but then it just kinda clicked and made sense.
I'm so glad it made sense! I think once you get the hang of it, it all makes sense ❤️
I understand the logic of the alteration, thanks. But you don’t mention ‘ease’ at all. Wouldn’t an exact measurement with no ease be too tight?
Omg, haha, I'm so confused!
I’m so confused with “start from 20 or wherever”
And then subtract? Why take a random number and subtract? Why not start with 1 and go from there
Confusing 😢
I really thought this would be a helpful tutorial, explain/show me how to get my own rise measurements and transfer them to any pant pattern.. nope I am totally confused? She says over and again that her tutorial is for any pants but then uses a paperband pant pattern and refers to this making everything confusing :( If she had used any standard pant pattern it may have helped. I shall continue my seach.

I hope it will be more helpfull !
Good luck
Is this alteration possible on pre-made jeans instead of a pattern? How would it be implemented on a already constructed garment that your trying to down size?
