MAKE YOUR OWN SLACKS PATTERNS

Slacks and shorts are usually the hardest garment to get to fit properly. Not so when you begin by using YOUR OWN measurements. When you use a commercial pattern you get a pattern that is CLOSEST to your measurements, then start to adjust the pattern to try to get it to fit properly. By making your own patterns, you use YOUR MEASUREMENTS, so the pattern has no choice but to fit YOU. It makes no difference if you need plus size slacks, petite size slacks, or if you're tall or short, or any size in between, you're g oing to have a clothing pattern and garment that will fit YOUR measurements.

Throughout this book we'll be using a sample set of measurements and you will simply substitute your own waist and hip measurement, your own crotch measurement, and of course, use the length you'd like to wear your slacks, shorts, etc.

"Make Your Own Slacks Patterns" is not just for slacks, although there are pages and pages of slacks styles. We have also included many styles of shorts and split skirts/culottes. We show you how to make pleats, darts, or gathered styles, give you sewing instructions on making side slash pockets as well as telling you how to estimate the amount of fabric needed for the shorts/slacks.

The "Make Your Own Slacks / Shorts" book comes in two size ranges -- Regular and Full Figure. The books are downloadable for immediate access so you can begin your shorts and slacks project right away.
