First trouser draft
Hello!
I recently acquired a vintage Singer 301 sewing machine and decided to draft my first pair of trousers using the method from Helen Joseph Armstrong.
I am quite happy with how the first muslin turned out as the balance seems ok! Pants always intimidated me but I found the book instructions quite simple and clear!
the HBL is leveled and the side seam along with the crease line at front and back are hanging pretty straight.
I’m looking to move forward with the slack drafting next using this as a block, but if any one sees a fit issue I could improve upon, please comment!
Unfortunately this is not ironed, but in the process of acquiring one as well!
