I want to start making my own jeans since I have a curvy, very feminine body and 98% of pants, shorts, skirts fit me retarted. There made for people with no hips and butt. I have a hourglass figure. Any who, any tips, advice, etc? Fabrics, how much, how to, help... whatever, anything is appreciated.How to make my own jeans... any advice? tips? help?
Jeans are probably the worst thing to make when you are just starting to sew because they are quite complex and hard to fit. You need to either take a basic class or practice making simpler things first. (ex, simple skirts, tank tops, etc.)





When you do make pants, buy a pattern (fabric stores supply these-make sure to get your size. The pattern will most likely tell you how much fabric to buy and what else is needed, like zippers and buttons). Measure yourself as accurately as possible.





Sorry I couldn't be more help, it's difficult to assist with sewing over the internet...

Making jeans is pretty hard. You have to have a seriously industrial sewing machine. But there are websites where you can design every aspect of your own jeans: http://www.indicustom.com/navigation.do?鈥?/a> I'm DYING to have a pair custom made. I have a 25 inch waste, but 40 inch hips so believe me. I feel your pain. The only ones that seem to not gap at the waist are super-low rise, and I'm not into having my butt crack on display. lol





If you do learn how to make your own jeans, let me know. I'd like to order a couple pairs for myself. lol
