There is nothing like wearing your own custom fit and sewn jeans! Start with a style you like and select your size.

Learn about: - Choosing jeans materials and tools. - Determining your best pattern size. - Fitting the pattern to your unique shape - Step-by-step construction order that includes fly front, pockets, seams, waistband, topstitching, bartacking, and hems PLUS when and where to fit as you sew. - Customizing with unique stitching and hardware. Once you perfect traditional jeans, try Helen's creative modifications for button fly fronts, welt and trouser pockets, waistband variations and changing up your bottom line with a tulip hem or ankle zips.
