Also, If you are in doubt, Charlie Harper has a free PJ pants pattern that is similar with a longer back rise. Maybe you can copy the back rise from that pattern.

I also increased the crotch curve by 1/4" front and back (useful to accommodate a pull up in conjunction with a 3" wide waistband, with 1" elastic). I added 3" to the leg length, so that at full length, to the ankle, I had a 3" turn up of the contrast fabric (inseam 15 1/2" before hemming). My 3 1/2 yr old nephew has short legs. If you prefer to make them without room for a pull up then use 3/4 inch elastic and stick to the 2" waistband . I didn't line them (but I should have), as I made them with thick corduroy and quilting cotton for contrast. They are already a favorite! He slept in them last night, he wouldn't take them off! haydeehohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14174014484195016455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540761711646097949.post-85087947550612590892020-05-30T21:44:46.511-05:002020-05-30T21:44:46.511-05:00How much did you increase the back rise to fit you...How much did you increase the back rise to fit your boy's butt?

It looks so cool! I have 3 questions, firstly: The back crotch rise pattern piece cuts straight across horizontally... normally the centre back is a couple of inches (give or take) longer than the front and sides. It seems it may be wrong? I too, have had an issue printing back and front at 100%. BACK seems A LOT BIGGER than the front pattern piece, (1 1/4" wider and 1" longer). Any chance you can put a test square on there, so we can tell if we printed it at the correct scale? Would you happen to know what I might have done wrong? Can you tell me how much to extend the centre back rise by to correct the deficit in the pattern before I cut it? Thank you so much for your help! haydeehohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14174014484195016455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540761711646097949.post-80976265677923629542020-05-29T23:56:20.301-05:002020-05-29T23:56:20.301-05:00What size waist and hips do these pants fit?

I just used this waistband technique on a pair of corduroy (lined with knit!) pants for my son -- and I *love* the technique. It looks awesome!! Much better than my previous technique. Also thanks to you I have decided to try sewing with knits. I bought a stretch needle for my machine and one yard of knit fabric and so far I like it.

I used the pattern as it is, rather than add any seam allowances as he is small for his age and I thought they would work out right. I should have measured though, the pattern is great, but I've found the waist is not high enough at the back, so he has his bum permanently showing! Not a good look :) I'd say the pattern is on the small side. Definitely measure first, and you may need to add some to make the waist band higher. I will make another pair for him though as I love the pattern!Amy Beetonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06051455247246110471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540761711646097949.post-21542205491036025842013-04-12T01:39:19.839-05:002013-04-12T01:39:19.839-05:00I have just made these pants for my grandson out o...I have just made these pants for my grandson out of some old jeans of mine and an old shirt of my husbands.
