What an awesome episode!! My favourite jeans aren’t all jeans but using denim and lots of topstitching and jean construction: Deer & Doe Safran jeans (high rise, skinny with a front slant pockets, for VERY stretchy denim), Closet Core Ginger (high rise, skinny), Closet Core Morgan (the BEST rigid denim jean for me, it’s the slim boyfriend fit), McCalls 8007 (high rise flares, but with a really interesting construction with the front seam and round butt seam - they look totally 70s), and Deer & Doe Narcisse (wide leg trousers that I use denim for). I think I’ve made over 40 pairs of jeans now…I can get a pair finished in about 5 hours now. But this video gives me so many other suggestions! 😘

Thanks girls! I've made three pair Dawn jeans and four pair Mountain View. I think my favorite is the Mountain View. Having seen all these choices I may be trying a new pattern!

Thank-you! This is such a great resource and really like how you've split the styles into leg types. I've recently bought the Legato jeans pattern by Love Notions (and also the course on how to make them) so found this jeans series at just the right time. Looking forward to making my first pair of jeans now

I’m super glad you mentioned the I AM Sunshine jeans - I bought the pattern a couple of weeks back and have my choice of denim all ready, just need to order! I watched the previous videos so feel I’m ready to go, and the sew along pictures make it look like like it’s something I can do, even though I’ve only been sewing garments for a year! Can’t wait for any more of your videos with regards Jean making - it’s all explained so well. Well done xx

Another to add is the Muna and Broad Noice Jeans for the plus sized sewists. They are tapered or wide leg and made for non-stretch denim.

Hi ladies, Thanks for a great vid. Gertie at Charm patterns have the Marilyn jeans. Got the pattern but not made it up yet. They have an interesting opening where the zip is in the side pocket, not quite vintage sailor style opening but close. Thanks again for a great list/resource all in one place. Have a fab weekend. 😁👍 xx

Hi!! So excited to see the Jean tutorial…I’ve made lots of pants, but a goal of mine is to make a pair of hard core JEANS!! Out of curiosity, I wanna try my hand at adding rivets and stuff…will you be talking about hardware as well? And how to use them? That would be an amazing video;) Thanks for doing this! Brilliant!

Great categorizing of the Jean patterns and presentation. So no 70’’s hip hugger bell bottomed jeans? A bit too old to wear them now, but they were fun when I was a teenager.

Don't get us wrong, we would love those too but the modern patterns don't make them (we are keeping an eye out for any vintage jeans patterns though 🤩)

Jalie also does a brillant pull on Jean called. Eleonore it also comes with a video on how to sew them up.

Thanks Tracy, we didn't include these are they are more of a begging as they don't have a front opening.

Just had a look at the Philippa and Persephone and they are more of a trouser or jegging than a Jean (no front pockets etc) We will keep an eye out for the Helene though

Angela Wolfe has a jeans pattern also. I think she may have a class on KZbin also for it. I have the pattern, but as yet have not made it. I love the Ginger Jeans and keep making them over and over. So well fitted for me that I hate trying another pattern!

I have been on asthma steroids sadly and out on weight so no longer the perfect figure, appalled to measure waist size because of increased waist but hips ok. I want fine camel or ivory cords. So pressure so think I sew. Initially I think the knit waist band is good option.
