I can't imagine sewing a pair of jeans that fast because I'm seriously a turtle, but these look great and I bet your next pair will be awesome with your fitting changes!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6813031881624424068.post-2816606163660462932015-02-25T18:40:34.813-08:002015-02-25T18:40:34.813-08:00Love that you had a weekend of tea and Ginger jean...Love that you had a weekend of tea and Ginger jeans.

I agree with the girls above on the yoke, but other than that I think the fit looks great! That denim looks really awesome too!Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06811042498433296718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6813031881624424068.post-279465111478753702015-02-25T11:25:52.577-08:002015-02-25T11:25:52.577-08:00The back crotch length looks pretty good (did you ...The back crotch length looks pretty good (did you end up changing that?) but I agree with Heather - you could take a bit more from the center back yoke. I'm finding it a bit tricky to alter to fit my pear shape - the last pair I made (shorts) were TOO tight in the waist! <br /><br />These look pretty damned good though, I look forward to seeing part twoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6813031881624424068.post-51816976290938002992015-02-25T07:35:37.240-08:002015-02-25T07:35:37.240-08:00Oh good, I think you're going to like Ginger P...Oh good, I think you're going to like Ginger Part 2 because that's exactly what I did! I ended up taking some height off because it "felt" better, but looking at the pictures I can now see that there is some visible excess too. Thanks for the help!Meghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01455909792052564401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6813031881624424068.post-64080019171790252882015-02-25T06:44:26.523-08:002015-02-25T06:44:26.523-08:00Because the rise is higher, on some bods that crot...Because the rise is higher, on some bods that crotch may be too long even though the crotch curve is the same for both. I'd take a little bit out here like ya said. Also, your bum looks GREAT but I think the yoke is too long on you. If you make em again, trim the yoke about 1/2" and transfer that to the top of back leg. You may also want to take out a small wedge at CB since it seems like you have a little excess there unless it's just in that photo only.Heather Louhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08273803885711033973noreply@blogger.com
