JEANS PROBLEM = SOLVED 🙌 Easy, Fast & Comfy Crescendo Pull-On Jeans Pattern 💜 Know Before You Sew #3

[@dianemontavon5670]

I'm 70 years old and I just gave away all my jeans, which at this stage in my life was 2 pair and they were skinny legs and too little for me now. I always said I wish they'd come out with a nice pull on jeans...YOU DID IT. Your embroidery work is beautiful.

[@gigimac448]

I love that you work with fabric shops to help us find the right kind of fabric! Often the most discouraging part of sewing is sourcing the fabric. Thank you!

[@elonamasson7569]

What struck me was the fact that on all your testers, the rear view is beautiful. With this pattern, you have managed to produce a nice fit for the backside of many different body types!

[@barbaramckenzie326]

I love making my own jeans and I've transitioned to only making pull-on jeans - this pattern is a winner! I use my embroidery machine to embellish the back pockets - using my own designs. The hardest part of sewing jeans is finding the perfect fabric.

[@LoveNotions]

It is! We've been gathering resources though! Hopefully shops will be able to keep it in stock more often now! ☺️ ~J

[@christenclark5213]

This is the first time I have made a comment with love notions. I love that your jeans have a natural waist. I get so frustrated with low-rise jeans. Low-rise jeans are for teenagers and super-trendy adults, and I don't care for them. I want a natural waist. I want a comfortable pair of jeans. Thank you for the fabric sources. Finding the correct midweight and amount of stretch I want is so hard to find in the retail store.

[@palominoz59]

I'm 65 and can't wait to make these jeans! Having made jeans since the 70's, I am more into the comfort aspect now! Wonderful pattern and I'm excited to get going!

[@jojobtrcook1808]

This pattern is right up my alley! I’m not a great sewer, yet. I used to sew all kinds of things-all my clothes, except coats, underwear and swimming suits! I learned to sew in 7th grade in home ec. I couldn’t stop after that! Woven, knits, light weight & heavyweight. Then after I finished school and was married for 5 or so years, I had two baby boys, 3 yrs apart. So, I sewed many of their clothes! And they were a lot faster! (easier styles & smaller sizes!). As the years passed I became busier and ended up going to work. I got out of the habit of sewing. Now, I’m retired and have more time and a new sewing machine, so I am attempting to learn and relearn all the skills of sewing. I would never attempt a pair of jeans now, but I actually think I can make these!! I’m excited to start. Wish me luck!

[@streamstriss]

Good luck!

[@deb.m.7458]

I was in the situation. Sewed in Home Ec, younger years, then stopped due to work. Now I absolutely love sewing and can’t stop. Check out Lifting Pins and needles and Thoughtful creativity. Lots of advice and tips. Love Notions Patterns are well drafted. I’d start with this indie pattern company.

[@heathermauck]

I especially like the fabric recommendations. I feel like this is where I fail frequently.

[@dawnwyda7950]

The first thing I thought when I saw this pattern was - A Pull-On Jean! HOORAY! So excited for this one!

[@janicek6399]

This pattern has real potential for me and my adult daughter! I really appreciate seeing the testers in their makes with different body types and heights.

[@jojom.4462]

I saw your short video the other day for the Crescendo Jeans and thought, “Yes” finally pull on jeans! I am a jeans girl from the 70’s and have a hard time wearing any other type of pants. Since the short video I have been watching everyday-checking to see if it was available yet. I grabbed mine this morning! I started to look for fabric right away! I also have the Legato jeans pattern with the class the last time I bought from Love Notions. I normally don’t get this excited about a pattern, knowing I can get a custom fit makes me Happy! Thank you so much for making this pattern!

[@veronicah571]

Midlife weight gain has found me and none of my jeans fit. I need pull on jeans and this pattern looks perfect.

[@txrose101]

So excited LN designed a pull on jean. I’m 70 yo and finding jeans that will fit and have a tall version for this odd shaped body. Thanks LN for your commitment to real women’s clothing.

[@Kim-sv3hb]

So glad I saw this video. Ive heard a lot of rumble on this new pattern!! Love all the options. Off to go shop!

[@gaeacreations]

How perfect is this?! My goal for 2024 is to learn how to make my own jeans!!! Can't wait!!

[@rebawilliams5320]

I’ve always been too intimidated to try sewing jeans but, this just may be the pattern that gets me over my fear.

[@LoveNotions]

Do it!! Sewing jeans doesn't have to be scary! ☺️ ~J

[@barbaragudzik2095]

Just yesterday I promised myself I would NOT buy any more patterns or fabric!! Well, maybe just one more time... I love your patterns, and this one looks like another winner!!

[@shirleynehring1193]

Me, too, but I did!

[@bellemusecore]

Hahahahahaha just one more....😏

[@nancyfrens5573]

I sew a lot of my clothes, but have never attempted jeans. It’s time!!!

[@DenaDeschene]

The skinny version is calling my name! 😊

[@dianecox2542]

I’d love to try these, but I’m so afraid of sewing fitted pants! I’m a terrible apple shape, and would hate to waste my time and money to end up with something terrible. I’m new to sewing garments. Handled the LDT okay, and a cadence. Would love to try this.

[@jillthrash959]

I love stretch denim jeans. I was so disapointed when my favorite RTW brand discontinued the style that actually fit me, so I'm really looking forward to making these jeans...with embroidered pockets!

[@MysteryViv]

Oh dear. I am supposed to be sewing new nightshirts, but instead I am being lured by this incredible pants pattern. Heading off to order it now.

[@sandygammage2728]

I love pull on jeans at this stage of my life.

[@KarenScott6]

I actually do not own any jeans. But the idea of having some stretch ones that fit is amazing. I have only just started trying to sew trousers and get the fit right, so these sound like a super idea. Thank you

[@kathleadbeater3768]

Hi, I have only just found 'LOVE NOTIONS ' and I am blown away!! I have bought a few patterns so far but I am having problems finding the right fabric in Scotland UK has anyone out there got any ideas? Absolutely love these trousers can't wait to find the right fabric. Thank you for all your wonderful patterns. Kath

[@myhappyplacegratefulheart4206]

I have never sew jeans before. This may be my first.

[@jackalmomma]

Ever since you first hinted at this pattern, I have been eagerly awaiting its arrival. I can't believe it's finally here. I love pull on jeans and now I can get them to fit both my large waist and my short legs!!!!!

[@lohuis9]

Yesss, a pull up jeans for petite plus size.

[@c.d.huttar8903]

I thought I wasn’t going to add any more patterns to my list to sew right now, but I was wrong. I need these!

[@debbiearmstrong197]

Looks perfect for fitting a six-foot tall lady like myself! Thank you!

[@bernadettepierre7935]

Tammy and Love Notions ....you outdid yourselves with this pattern. ....having difficulty getting perfect fit Jeans ....this is going to solve my perfect fit problems.....well done!! Looking forward to a Shirt design for the men in our lives.....

[@LoveNotions]

Woo hoo! Glad to hear it, thank you! ~J

[@kathywalker6915]

These jeans look like they may be the perfect ones for me.

[@cking7382]

I’ve been SO tempted by the spanx versions, but not the price 😂. Can’t wait to try this pattern!

[@rhonddalesley]

I bought this pattern last night because I want straight leg jeans and they're just nowhere to be found since skinny jeans appeared donkeys yonks ago! I'm excited about the 'pull you in' front pocket situation because when you're a woman of a certain age things are a bit plumper than they used to be 😂

[@sallylopez9358]

I’m approaching 60 and my body is changing so much I don’t even know what fits anymore. I’m just beginning to see. As a kid and young adult I just wanted to hang with my brothers and engineer friends and sewing and fashion seemed like foreign languages. Thank you for making patterns that are so approachable. I’ve tried a couple of your dresses, tees, tunics that I figured could always work as pj’s if they didn’t turn out well. I’ve been afraid to try jeans, but maybe now is the time.

[@sallylopez9358]

Beginning to SEW not see. 🙈

[@lindamatt5629]

Yay! I love this pattern. Jeans are my go to pants, but because I'm getting older I am absolutely over zippers! I just want to be comfortable!

[@chrystekrause3931]

I'm excited to see a pattern for pull-on jeans! I have a hard time finding jeans that actually fit and are comfortable.

[@quiltinggurlquiltgal]

The petite bundle would be AMAZING to win! I think that I need a pair of boot cut jeans ❤

[@joysauer1893]

I am 77 and have been sewing since 18. I have sewn almost everything…except for jeans. After watching you I am diving in🤭

[@sewlovemydogs]

I just watched Karina’s vlog (lifting pins and needles) on these and bought the pattern straight away. As well as the comfort factor being pull-up they look fitted you’d never know they had an elastic waist, plus the ease of adjusting the rise means a lot to me, I CANNOT purchase jeans that I don’t have to keep hitching up after a few washes because the rise just wasn’t quite right. I’m 65 and from the era that looove wearing jeans, now I can stay in style with all the variations to choose from without having to hunt high and low for a brand and style that fits me.

[@nancynewman6592]

I bought this pattern the moment I saw it advertised, and the hook was the full butt adjustment :) Thanks for all the work you did creating this pattern!

[@jirup]

I live in pull ons, so this pattern is absolutely perfect for me.

[@lorrainebailey4267]

I can’t wait to see this up! I hope to win but if not I am still going to see this up

[@jenniferstraw7328]

I’ve never tried sewing bottoms before as I’ve been entirely intimidated. These jeans look amazing, and like I might actually be able to do them. I’m excited to try!

[@queenretiadivalicious8356]

I am probably the only woman in the US who does not have any jeans!!! This seems to be the perfect pair for me!!!😍😍😍😍 ! Have a lot of body shaping issues, which makes it practically impossible to find any pants😞😞😞

[@kathleenllewelyn6890]

I'm really looking forward to making a whole wardrobe of these!

[@ashlinwilson498]

So excited to try out this pattern! Now my old hole covered jeans can take a back seat 😂

[@chestnut27860]

I've been looking for the perfect pull-on jeans pattern. This one looks like it might be the one I've been looking for!

[@nikkischallhorn2892]

Pull-on jeans are usually a no from me. However, the testers knocked it out of the park and now I'm off to buy the pattern! 🙂

[@whitneylarson33]

It’s been a hot minute since I told a jeans class in college. I’m ready to attempt again!!

[@ernestineromero4374]

This seems to have it all for most body shapes. The fact that it offers adjustment for different bottom body shapes is fantastic.

[@francesfrancisco3381]

Love Notions is my favorite pattern company. I think I own every pattern you have produced.

[@connieanddavecrute4104]

I'm 80 and have never been able to get a pair of RTW pants that fit, not to mention jeans. I am looking forward to making the these. The fit options are awsome

[@lindaleslie7228]

I have difficulty finding jeans that fit comfortably as I have a long torso and am only 5’4” tall, and I love a nice fitting jean without having wedgies all the time. I feel that this pattern will be the solution for me. Thank you so much.

[@leahleague7438]

This pattern looks incredible! I am short and have a hard time finding jeans that are the right combination of fit and style for me. This looks just right!

[@catnip-n-biscuits7653]

I have never been able to get a pair of jeans to fit me. I would love to succeed with this pattern and bundle! I even have a Crescendo sewing machine! Feels lucky!

[@teresavicars9989]

I love the versatility of this pattern. Love the pull up style and being able to custom fit to my body. You have done an amazing job designing these Jean's. Thank you so much!💞

[@lisafogel8208]

I've been seeing garments for myself since I was about 11 yo, but I've avoided making jeans bc I doubted I could get the foot and details the way I wanted. Jeans fit me well up until a few years ago, and I don't even want to try them on in a store. I'm going to purchase this pattern based on the results of the many pattern testers' gorgeous photos.

[@jaclynmoylan1905]

Yayyy for quilters and yayyy for Missouri Star!!! I’m a quilter who is dabbling into garment sewing.

[@colleenmcveigh9654]

This is likely the only jeans pattern I would even try to sew, I haven't worn 'hard' jeans since before 2020

[@natalierobillard8741]

I’m really looking forward to making these. Finding the right fit in the store is just always so difficult!

[@gaelennox6230]

I ordered this pattern. It's exactly what I need. I have no jeans that fit me properly. I'm 78 and retired and would love to receive the giveaway. I've been looking at the fabric stores you recommend and they are all sold out. I am so anxious to sew this pattern. Thank you for considering me for your giveaway, I've been sewing since I was 7 years old and absolutely love this pattern. I love your videos they are so clear with wonderful tips.

[@sewenticing]

I Need this pattern. It’s everything I want in a jean. My husband is jealous and wants a men’s version.

[@kristieroberts2955]

I'm a belt wearer. And hearing pull on jeans made me nervous. Imagine my surprise when I saw belt loops! So awesome! I may now get brave enough to sew me some. And thanks for including all the leg styles. That means I can buy one pattern for the styles me and my two girls like. You guys rock.

[@debporter5053]

I usually stick to sewing tops but I think I'll step out of my comfort zone and give these a try! Thanks for the video!

[@mama24fb27]

I haven't been able to find regular jeans that fit me, so this pattern - and type of jeans - would be perfect! Now i just need to get the fabric and get busy 🧵🪡

[@janedunning1993]

Thank you for having a tall option! 😊❤️

[@angelahurst6963]

I don’t own a pair of Shop bought jeans because I have never found them comfortable. Now is the opportunity for me to make a pair of jeans in my preferred style, which I will ensure will be comfortable for me to wear. If I happen to win I would like the high-rise fit. Thank you Love Notions.

[@erinmanningsantiago8615]

I am not normally a pants sewist lol- but after watching this video they look like something I would make. Can't wait to try!

[@yellowfuchsia1]

I'm beyond excited about this pattern. I'm so glad you included so many leg styles - I'm sure I will be able to fit my very prominent calves.

[@conniewhite4472]

I would never have attempted to make a pair of jeans, however, this pattern will motivate me to try!

[@deedex9326]

My one & only jeans are pull on from old navy (10 yrs ago) . Recently my 89 yr old mom just entered long term care & wants a pull on wide leg jean to accommodate her Foley Bladder catheter. I'll purchase the pattern, but it will be on hold until I can afford $$ the fabric. Cannot wait to wear the final jeans & gift my momma a pair too!

[@kathleenkelley2007]

What an awesome pair of jeans! I'm so excited to try them. Pull on jeans=secret pajamas!

[@LoveNotions]

All about the secret pajamas!!! 🤫🤫 ☺️☺️ ~J

[@pattykingkade5778]

I have been terrified to make jeans, but this might be the pattern that makes it possible!

[@susancooper1615]

I am so excited to make the Crescendo jeans, as I am about to retire i am sure I will live in them😀😍

[@kellidelegal4776]

This might be the pattern that makes me want to make my own jeans! I have so many pants patterns in my stash and every single one intimidates me! But no zippers might be the one that does it for me!

[@10identical]

I have had zero desire to try making jeans before now, but I might be able to get behind these!! They look SO comfy and I already know your patterns fit me well!

[@KristiB-t2h]

Can't wait to sew these amazing jeans. This pattern has everything you could possible want or need. Thank you Love Notions!

[@aileenblack8684]

I live in capri's all summer. I need this pattern just for that reason alone. These would make the best Capri pants.

[@vernabeckstead5148]

This video has given me the courage to possibly sewing the Crescendos. I get excited. The only pants I have made that fit me are the Allegros.

[@susanmacgregor426]

This would be fabulous. Being tall (ok, long legged) and extra round, sometimes it gets exhausting adjusting the pattern to fit. Thank you for providing so many possibilities

[@joyfish01]

I told myself no more sewing jeans because I've had such a hard time finding that perfect fit without super altering the pattern... which I'm not a fan of. This pattern, though, may change my mind!! :) I love that you included fabric rec's. And thanks for the giveaway!!

[@victoriaphillips9296]

I am just starting my sewing journey at 46 years old, and I just had my first child. I love watching your videos and found your patterns because of Tomkat Stitchery. I've just printed your Aurora dress 😊 I would love to make this pattern as I can't find what I call jeggings,or as you call them pull on jeans, anywhere and they are so comfy and practical 😊

[@debbiedobson2616]

I need this so bad, love the idea of making jeans that fit!

[@dellaaustin718]

Finally, I can make a pair of jeans to fit my shape. I'm a size 5 - 6X on top and a 3 - 4X on the bottom. Thank you

[@joanneklug7665]

This video is inspiring to make my first pair of "pull-up" jeans or any jeans for that matter!"

[@caroleliebenstein882]

This is my kind of pattern. I love that all the leg styles are included.

[@NinaWinslow]

Can’t wait to make my Crescendo jeans. My fabric should arrive soon!

[@janetburzacott3556]

I am reasonably new to LN and love the patterns and they are so easy to use. I have just lost a huge amount of weight and would love to add a new pair of jeans 👖 to my wardrobe. I love the KZbin tutorials as well as I'm a visual learner.

[@tracyyarbrough8371]

I love Love Notions! It's the only pattern company that I don't have to make adjustments to the patterns in order for them to fit , and I'm hoping the Crescendo pattern is the same way. I have just recently retired from teaching and we were not allowed to wear jeans to work, so I don't own any. I look forward to making my first pair with this pattern and hopefully even winning the great giveaway, if you so choose. Please consider me for your giveaway. I appreciate it.

[@joanbrinkley9372]

Love Love Notions patterns! I’m never disappointed. These jeans are exactly what I’ve been looking for.

[@anjanadelhi4497]

I love that this pattern has different rises. I am petite and have a hard time finding petite pant patterns. Thanks.

[@LouiseJohnson-tw3ex]

The jeans look really comfortable.

[@Michelle-yz5ne]

I've been waiting for an elastic-waist jeans pattern like this! Thank you!

[@threadling1]

I haven’t sewn in a very long time. This sure looks like a good investment and a very doable project. Thanks so much for walking us through the ins and outs of this great pattern!

[@cnonyead1341]

Definitely will be purchasing at the sale price. I usually procrastinate until I miss the introductory offer. I'm excited to sew these - a MUCH NEEDED addition to may wardrobe.

[@phillygirldiane8315]

These jeans are exactly what we all need! way to go!

[@kellieb242]

I have been sewing bags, totes and purses for the last 7 years and had just recently decided I wanted to try sewing my own clothes. I'm 5'9" and it's incredibly difficult to find jeans to fit me correctly. As a result, I only have 2 pair in my closet and they're very old and need replacing. I dread shopping for jeans so when your video came across my feed I thought now is the perfect time to try it! I also have a hard time getting tops to fit so I'll be looking at your tops patterns as well. Let the fun begin!

[@anitaholmes8201]

I've been trying to find jeans that fit and are comfy in various store and coming up with nothing suitable. Saw this new pattern and thought, "Maybe?" Watched the video and realized, "Yes!" I'm looking forward to making a pair -- and thank you for sourcing the fabric ❤.

[@lorimiller8619]

I was on the fence (because I have most LN bottoms patterns) but after seeing this video, I’m going back and completing my order of Crescendo Jeans. I love pull on’s and comfort is so important. The thing is this pattern is comfort and style. Great design!!!!❤
