Hey I just made my first pair o pants, so much easier than shirts! (My first ever thing I made was a men’s shirt, was so hard! Then made another men’s shirt using a different pattern which was even harder ((yoke and fancy stuff))- I shoulda started with more beginner friendly things like tote bag or pillow case etc but I am so impatient. But after two frustrating but successful shirts I  thought was time to divert to trousers) 

 

I really like em, the shape is exactly what I’m into (barrel/ balloon + cropped), but I’m 6’4 and slim with shorter legs/ longer torso so my proportions are a lil weird (the reason I finally decided to start  learning to sew a few weeks ago!!!) however- there’s some things I’d wanna change about them to make them my perfect pants.

I’m hoping to add a little more bagginess to them, and add some more room to the upper part - the crotch + bum- as it’s a little weird fitting on me/ I prefer pants to not be so tight in that area or really affected at all by body movement when wearing. I feel like maybe it’s a case of dropping the crotch? Just not

Sure how to effectively do  this ! They’re a unisex patternso think maybe that’s my issue. 

Im also not super in love with the way they (when looking from the side) are flat at the back but so curved at the front- I imagine id need to add darts on bottom of back leg panel? 

Any help is super appreciated! If anyone is interested they’re the studio pants by indigo indigo-  I just changed a few of the design choices like the pockets to better suit my preferences :) 

I just made my first pants, but wanting to adjust the pattern for the next pair
