Hello Hivers 💖 Some designers find it difficult to sew a trouser perfectly, I was also in this category sometimes ago but after attending some classes and consistent practice I was able to overcome that.
Here are the tips and process I followed in making my trouser, and it's very simple and straight forward, you can also give it a trial.
MATERIALS USED
- fabric ( soft Chinoz)
- waist band
- paper stay
- hair stay
- linen
- zip
- thread
CUTTING PROCESS
In my previous post I explained extensively how to go about cutting a trouser so I won't spend much time but show it pictorally
SEWING PROCESS
I always started my sewing by fixing the side pockets and then the zip
Fixing the side pocket, u measure 7.5 by 2.25 inches , fold in inside using iron, then apply paper stay, fix your pocket.
The zip allowance Is 7 inches for an adult, how it was fixed is shown in the pictures above.
Then I proceeded to fixing of the back pockets
Thereafter I joined the back to the front, fixed the band, adding waistband with belt holes and closing the zip properly
Then I joined the waist and also joined from ankle to the lap.
FINAL LOOK
Looks great! I got a sewing machine gifted to me 2 years ago and have been too intimated to open it up and try. I need to!
Smiles, you should give it a trial, tailoring is interesting, you can call for help if you need one. Thanks
