What's it like making your own pants?
Have you ever experienced difficulty finding the right pants? Or has the thought of getting them tailor-made crossed your mind? Do you find yourself only reaching out for the stretchy kinds and you want to change that? Then you’ve come to the right place - to the course [WSQ] Design, Draft & Sew Womenswear Pants (Intermediate)!
1. Why should I be interested in this course?
Pants are probably one of the bigger conundrums in the sewing world. Apart from factors such as the waist, hip circumferences and lengths - you need to figure out the crotch, the tummy and bum curvature, and even the leg, thigh and calf shapes. Don’t forget the alignment of the side seams too.
There are a multitude of variables, especially since everyone comes from a diversity of shapes and sizes. Those with wider hips often find the waistband not able to sit snugly, or some have to always alter their lengths to fit their height.
We could think of a few other reasons that people may want to make their own pants, but these are the more common issues that people face when purchasing pants off the rack. So, how do you get the perfect pair of pants? This is where our [WSQ] Design, Draft & Sew Womenswear Pants (Intermediate) comes in to save the day!
