What a great video. Many years ago, when you visited Perth, Western Australia, I brought the complete set of design packs. Unfortunately i did not put the effort in a beginner sewer. I lost interest in all types of sewing, I gave the whole lot away to the Op shop. What a big mistake. I learnt so much just watching this video. It is enough to get me back into sewing. Keep up the good work.

[@surefitdesigns]

Mary Arrow - What a shame you didn't follow through and use your SFD kits at the time. I still have customers from 38 years ago who still love using their master patterns...particularly as their body changes. You simply need to re-draw your personal body blueprint.

[@jackiemaddox6933]

Wonderful video! Thanks to Joy Bernhardt, I am visiting your channel for the first time. Just received the mini pants combo and I'm excited to start the journey. Its 've been sewing for many years, but sewing pants that fit has always been a challenge. With your techniques, I am hopeful. Thank you

[@surefitdesigns]

Jackie Maddox - Thanks so much for your feedback and comments. We are so grateful to have Joy as a satisfied customer. If you are at all interested, I am doing a Live broadcast on Nov 15 at 1PM (Pacific) and will be demonstrating how to achieve a bodice/skirt blueprint from the Dress Kit. There is a registration fee, but you get it all back in free gifts. If interested, please click here - surefitdesigns.com/products/cnd-usa-live-event-registration-page

[@victoriahannah1633]

I am a newbie so this is very helpful. I made my first successful pair of shorts last year using your kit. I actually have a pants pattern made but I took time away to follow Joy Bernhardt on doing the SFD pattern and sewing tutorial for button down blouse. I’ve made 2 blouses. I can’t say they are perfect but they are pretty darn good. I still need to improve sleeve area. Again this tutorial is so helpful and I can’t wait to make long pants to match my blouses.

[@surefitdesigns]

Victoria Hannah - I'm glad to hear this tutorial was so helpful for you. Keep up your SFD projects. The more you do the more confident you will become.

[@hechlerlea]

Glenda Thank you so very much.

[@surefitdesigns]

Lea Cooks - You are most welcome!

[@janetlink9756]

Thankyou glenda. Very helpful information as always. Thanks to your pants kit i finally have a perfect fitting pants pattern. It took a couple trys but i finally got it. It was mainly measuring the crotch inaccurately at first but once you get it right its the best feeling

[@surefitdesigns]

Janet Link - yes if you've measured inaccurately, it certainly won't fit you well. I'm glad this information was beneficial for you.

[@kristi8220]

Great description of perfecting the pattern. Thank you

[@louisedavidson848]

Excellent video!!!! Thank you for this wonderful lesson!!

[@surefitdesigns]

Thanks so much for your feedback. I'm glad this info is of benefit for you.

[@JanineSmith-zp9pi]

Hello! Measure your waist where you want it and add enough to create a casing for your elastic. Add enough for the width of your elastic, plus a little for the fold over to give you a clean edge.

[@lindasheets813]

Just love you

[@surefitdesigns]

Linda Sheets - you are so kind...made my day!

[@christinabarnes1105]

Hi Glenda. When you sew the pants together. Which way is the best way or right way to do it?.

[@julieukengland8315]

Great tutorial Glenda! The pant kit is going to be my next purchase so I’m catching up on the SFD pants videos in readiness to use it..I was initially a little nervous about the thought of making pants but your videos in the learning centre have also helped to demystify the process for me. A great resource, so many thanks for that.

[@surefitdesigns]

Thanks so much for your feedback and comments. I'm glad this was of benefit for you and is helping to build your confidence to go forward with the SFD Pants pattern.

I love the jacket on the form, is that from the blouse kit or shirt kit? Love your system Glenda! ❤😊👍

[@surefitdesigns]

Patricia Bennett - that jacket is designed from the Dress Kit. The design line is a princess line variation. I have the directions for designing and sewing it. It will be a downloadable Fashion Leaflet...just need to get it up on the website. Thanks for your feedback and comments.

[@omaralhamidi1832]

Can you make a video for gents pants if please

[@christinabarnes1105]

Hi Glenda. I what to do a pajamas pants. And the front crotch is the same as yours. But I want to put elastic waist. So do I fold at the waist? or do I ADD more fabric so I can fold it? If I did that wouldn’t that make the crouch longer? Thanks

[@christinabarnes1105]

Hi Glenda. What is that paper you are using?

[@christinabarnes1105]

Hi Glenda. Can you tell me how to calculate my front and back extension? Thank you

[@glendasparling8896]

@christinabarnes1105 - that calculation is covered in the Pants Kit Instruction book on page 5 and in this video - kzbin.info/www/bejne/qH3JhKKIgad9jdUfeature=shared

[@christinabarnes1105]

@@glendasparling8896 isn’t the crouch length different than the extension length when making a pants pattern.. some people say you calculate your extension when making a pattern by using your hip measurements and crotch depth.

[@surefitdesigns]

@@christinabarnes1105 what you're describing is not the process I use.

[@marinadi532]

Hi Glenda, in the Children's kit only, no CDs are available?

[@christinabarnes1105]

I like to know when u lay your pattern pant on the fabric to cut out.. do u face the crotch on both patterns FACING EACH OTHER or do the crotch sides have to be facing outside to the left and the other outside to the right????

[@surefitdesigns]

@christinabarnes1105 - it doesn't matter which way the crotch extension faces. Just make sure to keep both grainlines parallel to the selvage.
