Hi all!

In this tutorial you'll learn how to modify the crotch length of your pant pattern.

If ever you've sewn a pair of pants, only to realize the waistband isn't sitting in the right spot on your body (the centre back or front area is too low or too high), this tutorial will show you how to modify your pattern to get more use out of it and show you how you can determine its fit even before sewing them up.

2:06 Increasing the crotch length
9:58 Decreasing the crotch length
12:14 Outro

Thank you for the video. I need to reduce the crotch length on my pattern by about an inch. The pattern I am using has waist band connected to the pattern. After I reduce the crotch length by about an inch following your instruction, the waist line on the top of my pattern would also drop. Right? Hope it make sense to you. What shall I do with the a little bit slanted waist band area? Thank you!

Nice instructions, but the music is definitely not needed.

Hi you don't show what happens to the front pattern piece., so that you leg lengths end up matching, especially if the bottoms are shaped for a turn-up? if the personal crotch length is radically different to the pattern, eg 4", and you add it all into the back pattern piece, the leg lengths will not match at all.I don't see how it would work unless you add an equal amount to the crotch in front and back and as an even amount right across the piece, not an angled piece as shown in the video. Thx

Good information. Thank you. May I say though, that the constant background music is very, very distracting and annoying.

What do you do with the side seam line when you decrease the crotch?
