Thank you for the pattern.
And thank you for help me so the pattern would fit me.
I have made me 4 pants that fit me perfect.
Thank you.
Being a ‘more than average’ size apple shape means finding jeans that hug all the right places but are not too tight on the waist to cut me in half is difficult. I tried a couple of different plus size jeans patterns before I tried Ginger’s and was disappointed with the overall fit (even when re drafted to fit me). The first pair of Gingers were fab - I did have to take in the hips but everything else was spot on. I have since made 4 pairs 2 skinny and 2 bootcut by mashing the flared option with the skinny and I love them! I will not be going back to rtw jeans that’s for sure. I have also used the pattern to make work trousers by using Ponte and stretch Crepe.
I will never buy RTW jeans again! This pattern is well-drafted with clear instructions and CC has tons of resources to guide you through the process- from sourcing materials to proper fitting and adjustments to finishing details. I am so proud of my new sewing superpower but more than that just so grateful to have jeans that are comfortable to wear and help me feel comfortable with my body’s shape and size. There is no reason not make these! I’m excited to try my Morgan pattern next...
The directions along with the thoughtful design, and Heather Lou’s virtual jeans making class made it possible for me to make jeans after only sewing for 6 months! The sizing seemed to be on the large size, but in the course, Heather explained how to baste fit and make changes. You can do it. You can make jeans!
It was my first pair of jeans and it fits perfectly. I think I will never buy an ready to wear jean ! The explications are great although I am french. I have already make three ginger jeans. Thank you so much
