Here are the greaser jeans, round two. You can see round one here.
I added ease in the crotch length and hips. I'm pretty happy with everything, except the crotch. The back crotch is a little tight but the front crotch is a little loose. I'm going to play with the crotch shape,break and extension settings in the Style Editor of PatternMaster Boutique4 and see if I can figure this out.
I also added a back yoke but it's purely esthetical. My lower back darts are 7" long so I transfered the dart to the center back seam and then cut off the yoke. I like how it breaks up the length, especially since these are waist length.
I omitted the pockets in this muslin. They were quite easy and they don't affect the fit.
And I tried my hand at flat felled seams. I've wanted to do flat felled seams for a long time but curved seams scared me. I figured a muslin would be a good place to practice. Turns out all you need is a tailor's ham. They are quite fun and look very neat from both sides.
