i am so glad i found this. I am super intimidated by pants fitting. I haven't tried yet, but you give me hope.

[@redlantern3371]

You are amazingly talented Ella! I love all of the hidden "treasures" you always put into your work. Like the pocket linings. Great job!

[@EllaHarp]

Makes it much softer on the hands that way - couldn't not do it when I had the choice!

[@alphaomegasportsclub]

WOW! JUST WOW! I respect your

[@karenscribner7031]

The belt loops are very clever, give them a name and trademark®.

[@jacquelinejohnson8322]

[@LeticiaCuenca]

Congratulations!! They look beautiful, love all the details, especially the orange fabric lining and the topstitching colour! Enjoy them!! ☺️💝

Can’t believe you made them jeans they look so good :) I’m learning on my old 1950’s husqrvarna 2000 but only been making simple cushions with grills for baby girls.. boys next, I’d like to move onto make my boys some clothing then me if I could be good enough. I love my sewing machine, also have 2 old hand cranking sewing machines too… I use them for my leather making… I have a harp and a guitar but still learning to read music.. :) Nora xx

Thank you so much for sharing some footage of your jeans making. They came out beautifully and inspired me to make my own.

[@shannonjenkins9251]

Amazing! I have that machine! I’ve not really used it much ( I use a Juki ) but I hear it’s an incredible machine and you just proved it!! I’m a quilter, so I’m not very knowledgeable about garment sewing, but jeans seem to me very difficult. They look great! Well done !!

[@helennewell9932]

She's beautiful @@EllaHarp

[@jamesford4607]

There is this wonderful sense of satisfaction and optimism released when we behold a genius creating a new piece of art. Even Rabbit is picking up the positive vibe as indicated by her relaxed smile. Thanks for sharing your art and soul, Ella. You have a gift for lifting souls out of despair and into the sky with your music and boundless creativity. ❤

[@karenscribner7031]

Excellent job! The fabric is skewed because the fabric comes rolled one layer on a tube. It is placed on a folding machine which folds it in half and rolls on bolt. It gets pulled more at the fold, and then skewed at the end of the usual 15 yards that is rolled on. Always prewash cotton denim. The horizontal lines at leg fold are pointing to where the jeans are too tight at the sides. Sewing up the vertical seams from crotch to waist can have the effect of making more space in the crotch, kind of like a man would need in the front. It is better to sew the inside leg seam.
