Hello house, pls help a sister out. Am new in sewing and my sewing machine is giving me headache. Whenever I sew, the back of my material comes out with multiple thread. I don't know if I didn't tread the machine well or its from the shutle. Any advice ?
So sorry dear.this can really be frustrating Pele

Try the following
Change your shuttle
Re-reel your thread
Check your needle to ensure its fixed well.
Tighten The tension on your left hand side.one out of all should work

crotch lnght=20
crouch depth= 8½
knee length= 20

With the way I cut mine, the front and back block of the trouser is the same.

some can cut theirs having the Back block bigger than the front block grin all good as long as you calculate it well and you add adequate seam allowance

Debzdee:
I hope it comes out well
It's should come out well wink remember your seam allowance. Plus ensure that u shape the waist to him well so u don't have a shoot out at the end of your sewing . you should naturally shape it on the side like you would shape a skirt. wink

barryT20:
I noticed there is no seam allowance on the waist and hips.
Please why is the waist and boot cut measurements not starting from where the hip measurement?
This is how my pattern will be with my exact measurement.when I then transfer my measurement to fabric I will add seam allowance to it.

I will have my cut line as well as my sew line

Debzdee:
Thank u so much for this! Pls how did u get d curve at d crotch? I guess dats d flap where d zip wud be .
Yes.if it's not curved I won't be able to put it on

FashionRe: Let's Sew For Fun (**valisimo Fashion School Online Classroom**) by EFOSAVAL(op):
Next stage is to place my measurements on the specific areas needed. Since I am working with 4 it means my waist and hip will be divided into 4 also.

To get my crouch depth I measured 3 in on one part of the fabric and used length 13 inch then I link the two as if I am shaping arm whole.this is how I got the crouch depth

FashionRe: Let's Sew For Fun (**valisimo Fashion School Online Classroom**) by EFOSAVAL(op):
[size=20pt]Back to the trouser class.
[/size]
EFOSAVAL:
Female trouser class.

fabrics needed depending on your size 1and a half yards to 2yards. Fabric type depends on you. I want to use Ankara fabric.

My Measurements areas

waist- 36
Hip-42
Crouch depth 14
Thigh-28
Waist to Knee length-22
Full length-43
boot circumference-16
EFOSAVAL:
Now the type we are making like I said b4 is a very simple type.so first I divide my measurement into 2 using the block theory.( Eg front block trouser, and back Block trouser)

Waist- 36 ÷2=18
Hip -42 ÷2= 21
Thigh 28÷2=14
Boot cut 16 ÷2=8

All the length areas don't need to be divided.
Now that I have divided my measurements into tow using the front and back block theory I am going to use my divided thigh measurement to cut cut my trouser.

The reason is that on like skirts that we use the biggest measurement part to cut eg the hip, when cutting trouser the legs take the first attention b4 the hip coz if the hip fits and we can't put our legs in it then we still haven't made a trouser yet.

My thigh measurement is 28÷2=14
I place my fabric on 4 folds coz I have 2 for the front and 2 for the back.

I can't cut 14 directly I have to add seam allowance to the 14 so I add just 2 inch making 16.

I will cut 16 by 44 the length of the trouser plus 1inch for hem. Note that this cut has to be in four pieces.
