The Whole Scoop: TDCO and a Tilted Waistline

Описание: This week on Fit Tip Tuesday I'm sharing a time saving tip if you have a tilted waistline (or short rise). During my pants fitting class over the last couple of weekends we started with the basic framework of TDCO as described by R. Collins in Threads Magazine Issue 218. During pattern prep, we added vertical length above the waistline for fitting. A few of my students had tilted waistlines and ended up with way too much fabric above the waist to fit themselves easily. See how to adjust the amount extra vertical length you need to add to the front leg when you're preparing your pattern pieces for to fit a single leg muslin on a separate waistband.
