I don't seem to have so much luck with Vinnies lately...not didcated enough...I think other pick must snap up all the good gear before I get there.katherine hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17314030133556269765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7351864927910092883.post-13883618777879734132016-06-18T17:13:26.904-07:002016-06-18T17:13:26.904-07:00I admire people who battle away to make the perfec...I admire people who battle away to make the perfect pair of jeans. I aspire to make jeans, but inevitably find a great fitting pair at Vinnies for $9 and don't go through the pain. One day!Gailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00622769905155059570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7351864927910092883.post-88484129482942790382016-06-16T23:14:56.976-07:002016-06-16T23:14:56.976-07:00I have been experimenting as well and have discove...I have been experimenting as well and have discovered that the back of my favourite Levis has similar lines to the front unlike the Ginger pattern which is completely different. I intend to try to copy my Levis next.fabric epiphanieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08315635356310954354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7351864927910092883.post-91073494839039025302016-06-15T20:50:06.750-07:002016-06-15T20:50:06.750-07:00Great experiment!

I traced the curve on a pair of jeans (Uniqlo) that fit me reasonably well. The back 'curve' turned out to be fairly straight, and I figured out that it serves to shorten the seam length - thereby 'deleting' that extra fabric in the right place for me - the top of the back thigh/lower butt area. I'm still trying to figure out how to get the best fit at the back waistband, but I suspect that you are right about the angle of that seam being important.
