Fab Fit Friday - Jan Minott Method of Drafting Pants - Start with a Hip Block

Today during Fab Fit Friday I'm starting January Pants Draft Month with the Jan Minott Method. This way of drafting feels like I'm fitting along the way. The pants draft starts with a hip block. What is a hip block? Basically it's the top of a skirt or pants from waist to full hip. As it turned out, drafting and fitting the hip block gave me the opportunity to fine tune the front/back waistline. The side seam was leaning toward the back at the waistline. I shifted the side seam forward 1/2" to straighten it out. Join me to see how to draft a hip block and use it to draft a pants pattern.
