The #1 Pants Fitting Mistake Beginners Make

The #1 pants fitting mistake beginners make? Ignoring the crotch curve! Those wrinkles under your seat? NOT your body. Just a quick pattern tweak.

Here's how to fix it:

1️⃣ Sit in a chair and measure from your waist to the seat
2️⃣ Compare it to your pattern’s crotch depth
3️⃣ Add ½–1” if needed
4️⃣ Redraw the curve with a hip curve ruler
5️⃣ Sew. Smile. Strut.

One tiny change = pants that actually fit you with no sag, no weird pulling.
