Great job, Sigrid! I'm impressed by your brilliant tracing of the RTW onto the clear plastic sheet. Love that idea.

This looks like a promising project even with the sewing machine troubles. <br />I've never managed to attach pocket bags all the way to the fly front, like you have marked out, without making a mess of it. So I will be especially watching for how you do that!Karinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06551387452771116176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6215123741467950471.post-36872234217219144802012-08-09T05:36:13.399+02:002012-08-09T05:36:13.399+02:00You will do fine.

Once we do learn how, the custom fit is oh so much better!Lorindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16827815776566518090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6215123741467950471.post-84787909627960576592012-08-09T02:05:26.910+02:002012-08-09T02:05:26.910+02:00I messed up the zipper on the first pair of Jalie ...I messed up the zipper on the first pair of Jalie Jeans I sewed. Then I procrastinated a long time due to "fear of sewing jeans" again.<br /><br />Finally I made a pair that was a combination of Jalie jeans and a pair of RTW that fit me well in a stretchy denim.<br /><br />They're not perfect, but they Are Wearable. Yay! However, it was a LOT of work for me.

Lucky woman! <br />Having two machines when using topstitching thread is a luxury for sure. I bought that vintage Viking just to do topstithing. It handles the heavy jeans topstitch thread magnificently.Nancy Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02235347323004026695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6215123741467950471.post-76446025866528559702012-08-08T23:49:06.182+02:002012-08-08T23:49:06.182+02:00Looking good.
