Fitting pants can feel pretty daunting if you've never attempted to sew your own pants before. I've sewn countless test muslins and will probably sew countless more in the future. If there is one thing I have learned over the years of fitting clothing, it is that it's very easy to over fit. I’ve found that applying little tweaks, done one at a time, makes the biggest difference. Sometimes those wrinkles you see are there for a purpose (sitting down, bending over etc etc.) and if you try to eliminate them, you won't be able to move! I don't think there is a right and a wrong way to fit pants or wear pants. Some people like pants that are tight fitting, while others prefer more of a roomy fit. You wear your pants the way you like to wear them! As long as you feel good in them and you are happy with how they look, that's really all that matters. If you are new to sewing and you are feeling intimidated, please don't feel bad if you don't know everything right away! If you need help, please ask! There is no shame in asking, and there is no such thing as a silly question. A great way to ask for help on Instagram is by using the hashtag #sewingsos (If there are other hashtags, leave them in the comments and I will update this post.) I hope you feel empowered to tackle a project you have been putting off because you are intimidated by it. I've found some of the most intimidating projects are the most rewarding, and also help me feel more confident in my abilities for future projects! #annaallenclothing #annaallenpatterns #pdfpatterns #persephonepants #philippapants #sewingpants #sewingjeans #fittingpants #pantsfitting #sewcialist #newtosewing #begginersewer #begginersewist #sewersofinstagram #sewingpattern #pdfsewing #pdfsewingpattern #indiepattern #indiepatterndesigner #sewingyourownwardrobe #handmadewardrobe #pants #jeans #nonstretch #nonstretchpants #makers #makersofinstagram #sewinghelp #sewingtips https://www.instagram.com/p/B7MH5fsApKM/?igshid=14jcg3fj2kcx6
