SIMPLICITY PATTERN 9043 SEW-ALONG PLEATED PANTS

hey what's up my name is Norris and welcome back to another so long now today we're gonna be working on Mimi G Simplicity pattern 1943 now this is a pleated pants pattern that I designed with a lot of cool detail now if you knew the sewing or just need a refresher course head over and watch our sewing basics video leave the description box below if you need more help I just want to learn too so head over to SOI to carry me calm alright let's get started ok once again like I said we're using Mimi G Simplicity pattern 1943 now just to note when you look at the pattern sizes this is not the waist measurement ok you want to turn to the back and look at the flap of the envelope you will see the ways know whatever your waist measurement falls up under that what size you want to cut and also you can go down to finish garments and it'll give you the measurements for once you sew it up give you an idea of what is gonna fit like and then also at the top you have fabric choices denim chinos Tweel's linens and a few extras also you can look at the notions you're going to need thread of course 1:17 zipper and four five eighths of men's buttons alright now let's go through all the pattern pieces okay first you're gonna cut out pattern piece number seven which is your loop you're gonna cut two of these now this is a really small pattern piece so you want to make sure you have number 7 and then pattern piece number 8 this is the will you want to cut two of these and then two are interfacing pattern piece number five which is your under lap you're gonna cut two of fabric and one of interfacing pattern piece number four is your fly you're gonna cut one of these of fabric and one of interfacing patter piece number 10 you're gonna cut one of these out of fabric okay a pattern piece number two is your pocket facing you want to cut two of these out of lining okay pattern piece number three it's your fun yoke and pocket you want to cut two of these out of fabric pattern piece number eleven it's your waistband you want to cut four of these out of fabric and also four of these on interfacing but if you're using really heavy fabric you might be using like a heavy wore if you do that you only need to cut two of these other interfacing pattern piece number nine is your back pocket now you can cut two of these out of your fabric but if you don't want your pocket bag really bulky you can cut two of these out of interfacing instead of your fabric but if you do that you're gonna have to create a facing piece that goes on the back bottom of your lining piece I'm going to show you how to do that and create that piece a little bit later okay we have pattern piece number one which is your front piece you want to cut two of these out of your fabric and then last but not least we have pattern piece number six and this is your back you want to cut two of these out of your fabric as well okay once you have all your fabric cut out and you have your lining and all of your proper pieces interfaced your seven in zipper and your four 5/8 of an inch buttons we can begin sewing okay so unlike the instructions in the envelope we're going to start on our back instead of our front this is because I want to go ahead and let you do your welt pockets and get that out of the way because that's probably the most difficult step in this process so before I get started remember what I told you that you can cut your back pocket piece out of fabric or out of lining now if you cut out aligning you're gonna need to create a facing piece just like this basically what I did was I measured from the bottom of the pattern piece up three inches and I just do a line across and I just took that over to my paper to create peas and it basically looks just like this now what I do is I'm going to take one end of this turn under and give it a good press I have inch up okay once you press up a half inch on one of the long ends you want to take your back-pocket piece let's say this is the front you want to turn this up like that take this turn it upside down wrong sides facing and you want to match up the ends of the bottom and pin it alright so now I'm going to turn it over and the back is going to look like this what you're gonna do now is head over to the Machine and you're just going to add stitch it right there on the fold all the way across and once you do that you just want to base the side across the bottom and then up the other side and then we're going to continue okay now when I cut the machine as you can see this is the right side and turn it over to the bottom on the back I have it edge stitch and I have it base on the sides and on the bottom now I'm gonna put this to the side for just a moment and we're going to work just on our back piece you can see right here that we have a dart so I want you to take your dart and you want a pin pin the bottom first pin through one line on one side and make sure the pin is coming through the other side that's how you get a straight dart and do the same thing all the way up okay now that we have this p.m. we're going to go to machine and we're going to stitch start from the top and down to our marking okay starting from the top we're going to back stitch at the beginning but not at the end okay so when we get to the bottom and we're going to stitch right till we get to that marking and we're going to stitch off the garment raise your needle pull your thread and then now we're just going to tie off the end now do you make a few more knots you're done okay now that we back for the machine as you can see you have a nice dart on this side and i went ahead and i press the dart towards the back seam and then across the top I went ahead and baste it that's so my waist won't stretch at all okay now that we have the dark out the way I'm gonna move this to the side for just a second and we're going to work on our loop okay now for our loop we're basically just going to fold in both of the ends to the center and we're gonna give that a good press and then after you do that you're gonna fold all of that in half like this and then you're gonna take it over to your sewing machine and you're going to egg stitch that open in a closed do that come back and we'll continue okay so after you add stitch the side that was opened you want to go ahead and turn over both sides just like this creating a little triangle at the end and you want to give it a good press at you're pressing table and then I like to take a pin and just pin it together so once you have your pin I'm gonna turn it over and you see the bottom of this triangle we're going to stitch it right across the bottom just a whole shape okay like I said we're going to stitch right across the bottom of that triangle to need her down I'm going to back sit at the beginning and also at the end all right so after we do that you want to take your ruler or a seam gauge and we're going to measure down 3/4 of an inch which put it right there where my pin is and we're going to stitch across there back to the end that creates a little opening here file button okay so now if you haven't already you want to go ahead and connect the dots here you want just draw a line for the top and also at the bottom and then you want to take your loop and you want the bottom to be touching the bottom line and you just place it right there in the center where the dart is and pin it all right so you want to head to your machine now and you want to just stitch starting at this dot all the way across stitch through your loop and then end up at your other dot and we're only doing the top do that come back and we'll continue okay now that we stitch this down you want to take your scissors and trim down the loop to a quarter inch just like that once you do that we're going to take our welt piece and we're going to fold it in half wrong sides touching just like this and give it a good press alright so I fold in half and pretty gave it a good press and now from the raw edge here I went ahead and measured the race of an inch away from there and I created a guideline so now you want to take your back piece and you want to line that got line up with the line that's all your pants okay just like that and then now you're gonna take your pocket back and remember if you're doing a lining you're gonna place it just like this with the back bottom with the facing on it so now take this and line it up with the edge line up perfect with the edge of the will now this is going to be a little bit different from what you've seen two directions but I find this a little bit easier for for me so hopefully you like it - maybe just basically going to line it up and give it a good pin so you want to pin right there where at the end dot is and turn it on there to make sure you get that dot and if you get that dot paint it all the way through and we gonna do that all the way across now that we have it all pin we're going to stitch start at one dot all the way across or to other that through all thicknesses and we're doing the top line only not the bottom okay first I'm going to put my needle right through that dot now we're going to back this at the beginning and also at the end take your time make sure you don't ship on you okay now that we have the welt sandwiched in between the pocket bag in your back piece you want to fold back your well in your pocket bag and we're just going to do a little cut right in the center and once you do that you want to go ahead and continue cutting towards one direction it's right in the center and once you get five eighths of an inch away from the dot you want to cut diagonally towards your dot and one in in one corner okay and then in the other direction just like that it's gonna create a little triangle here in the center and the same exact thing in the other direction okay so once you do that do you want to go ahead and tuck all of this to the inside put your will in there too and this right here it's the beginning of how you're forming your well as you can see and now you could just give this a good press ok now that we have this pressed we want to turn this over to the other side and this is what it looks like you have your triangles going all that way and then you want to bring the bottom of your back up and you want to turn up the top seam allowance so they can meet right sides facing and we're going to pin pin in the center so now I like to work from this side so I can see the top so you want to make sure the corner land flat and you just pin it right there where that stitching pre-existing stitching is okay you wanna do the other side the same way just want to make sure it's laying flat at the ends because this is what's going to make your welt look nice okay just like that so now we're going to go to machine we're gonna start right there at the corner all the way across and the end right there at the other corner and we're gonna do that using 372 seam allowance okay I wanted to get your pain in the right place you just want to place it down in that corner we're gonna back see at the beginning and also at the end and once again we're using 378 seam allowance okay so we've back from the machine we went ahead and stitch across the top now I'm going to turn this over and show you how to get your well neat now this right here is very important so now we're going to take your will and take that fold line all the way up to the top just like that just lining it up basically and we're going to pin it we just pin that in place I'm gonna do the same thing to the corners put it in place and then the same thing to this other corner okay so basically it looks just like this all out and of exactly how supposed to look so now you want to take one hand fold it back and pour that triangle flat it has a nice clean finish I'm right and then the same thing on the other side you want to pour that for lat that triangle flat and it has a nice finish on the other side now we're going to head over to the machine and we're gonna do one in at a time we're gonna fold back our back piece and with five eighths of an inch we're going to stitch across the top and go all the way to the bottom then same thing to the other side we're gonna pour this make sure to land flat 5/8 of an inch we're going to stitch across very important sometimes the way you put this together it's not going to end out to be 5/8 of an inch across the top you're gonna have to just see where the end of your triangle is and that's your seam allowance across the top now once you go across your triangle and have it secured you can merge until 5/8 of an inch all the way down okay starting on one side I'm only working on my pocket bag and my triangle so like I said you want to pull that triangle flat make sure it's down and put your pin right where the edge of that triangle ears on the side this may or may not be 5/8 of an inch depending on how your well came out so in a backstitch at the beginning and also the end do it a few times across that triangle and then continue down with five eighths of an inch so now when I flip over it's nice and secure it on one side so now let's do the other side this time we're going to start at the bottom back to the beginning also at the end okay now before we approach our triangle once again this may or may not be five eighths of an inch for you up here depending on how your triangles came out for me I would say it's a little less than five eighths of an inch but I'll see because you want to get it Jess at the bottom of the triangle so if you have to gradually so to meet it you have to do that you've enrolled a few times okay so I'm back from the machine and as you can see I have a nice finished well and I went ahead and did a little extra zig zag stitch right here on the side just to give it a little bit more secure and also right here now this right here is also a good trick if you're else didn't come up perfect you can zigzag do a narrow zigzag up and down to secure those ends that's just like it because it may it makes it a little bit more secure but typically if I wanted to be really formal I don't do it but I think I want a little bit more of a casual look so I did this exact knit across the bottom I went ahead and surged across the size and then across the top that's optional you don't have to Serge you if you don't have a serger and as you can see my triangles on both ends are nice and secured last thing you have to do is just open up your well pocket so on your button and then just blend it through your loop now that we have one well done you went to your other way up the same way and now we're going to move along to the front okay now for the front before we do anything we're gonna go ahead and prep you want to do a basting stitch about a half inch across the top on both sides and then also you want to do a basting stitch alone alone only the left side it's gonna be on the right here but if you're wearing them this is your left side right so right sides facing you you will do a basting along your stitching line right here no once you do that we're gonna continue working okay so now we're going to take on our yoke and also I'll pack it back and we're right sides facing you going to take that and just lay it over the top just like this make sure that your notches at the bottom matches up pin their pin along the edge of your pocket bag okay so now we're gonna head to the Machine and we're going to start right here at the top of the pocket bag in the yoke we're going to stitch using five a subnet seam allowance all the way around all the way here and we're gonna end up right here and stop do that come back and we'll continue okay so before we head to the machine we're gonna go ahead and mark out your 5/8 of an inch right here because you won't be able to see your seam allowance because you have this favorite right here in the waist so we're gonna mark it out right here just so we can stay within our seam allowance okay so we have the 5/8 of an inch so if we can see so once you get right here towards the bottom you don't have to mark here because you can see it across the bottom okay now that I have it stitched around the bottom and then along this side here I went ahead and surged across the bottom and then around this curve and then right here just so I can look nice on the inside of my garment alright so after I do that you want to turn it around like that pin this part back just the yoke I'm gonna pin the yoke back and then now I'm going to crap one of my front pieces and now this is my right side here and they were right sides facing I'm going to turn my pocket bag over to the front onto the front piece just like this and I'm going to pin I'm only pinning my pocket bag to my front piece make sure you mention notches okay really easy head over to the Machine and you're going to stitch this down using five eighths of an inch seam allowance do that come back and we'll continue okay now that I have this stitch down using the pave-set missy allowance I'm going to trim down my seam to about 3/8 of an inch and now I'm going to head over to the machine and we're going to do an under stitch now for the under stitch I have my seam allowance facing towards my pocket bag so my seam allowance underneath is on this side so now I'm going to go to the machine and I'm going to understand so I'm going to start here at the top and I'm going to add stitch close to the edge all the way down okay so I'm going to put my needle down right down the edge on my pocket backside and remember you want to put your seam allowance on this side to the left decide where your pocket bag is and now we're going to back to the beginning and also at the end okay now that under stitch right on my pocket bag I'm gonna take my pin out of my yoke and then now I'm just going to fold this right there and you open this up and basically you'll see the front take shape but before we continue you want to go ahead and fold this and give it a good press we understood so the pocket bag will be seen and it a roll into the inside and once again just move that yolk out the way we'll give that a good press and then you want to go to your sewing machine and you're gonna top stitch starting at the bottom using a quarter inch seam allowance all the way up do that come back and we'll continue okay now I'm back from the machine and I have my top stitching on my opening right here where my pocket is we're going to work on our fleet now we're going to take the pocket bag and the yoke and put it all to the side for just a moment and now you have your front piece right here no you turn to the back you have two markings you want to go ahead and bring those markings together and you want a pin and then also add the other dots put it through one dot and make sure it goes on other dot on the other side just like that okay so now we're going to head over to the sewing machine and we're going to start at the top and we're going to stitch down until we get to the second dot and then you want to back stitch and cut your thread do that come back and we'll continue okay starting at the top I'm going to back seat at the beginning and also at the end okay now that we have the pleat done just like that we're going to face the wrong side up and we're just going to flatten the back of the pleat just like this and give it a bit press and we're gonna base it across the top do that come back and we'll continue okay so now that I gave this a good press you can see that my pleat is pressed flat I went ahead in base across the top and now we're gonna take my yoke and just throw it on there like that turn it around to this side line up my side here and pin and then you want to make sure that the top is laying flat you have a blue you have a notch here and a notch here or your front mesh those up and longer this is flat then you just want to pin okay now you can see that the plea looks really nice right here and all of this is lined up on one side now last thing you want to do right now before we continue is you just want to base the side together and then base the front starting right here at the opening of the pocket across the top base that down okay now you want to grab your other front and do it the same exact way we did this one you want to make sure you do your yolk your pocket back your top stitching your pleat and then also baste the side down and then base across the top okay as you can see I got both my front pieces finished if you look at my right side which is on the left I went ahead and search the inside and all the way down to the hem and then the out seam on this side now for the left side which is on the right I did the out scene with a Serge I did the hem all the way up to the crotch with the third but then right here on the inside I'll only Serge an inch under the notch right there so I didn't go all the way up because we're gonna be folding this a little bit later so that's what I did to prep my front pieces and then now I'm going to go ahead and turn them right sides facing painted my markings and there's a nuts right here that's important that you need to match up make sure that it matches even on both sides okay so now we're going to stitch start at our notch which is right here started out not all the way up to our large dot which is right here you're only gonna stitch right there do that come back and we'll continue ok now that I'm back from the machine you can see I have my stitching line right here working on the left side which is the side with the fly stitching line right here watch a train on this side now at that dot I'm going to snit right into it until I get to my diet but not cutting in my thread okay now after you cut into your left side where that big dot is you want to go ahead and grab your fly front now I went ahead and surged around the curve and up my fly on this end right here if you don't have a serger you can just fold in a half inch and press it my end is finished with a Serge stitch so I don't have to fold it under so now we're going to turn this to the front like this and this is I love side you know we're gonna take this and turn it right sides facing and we gotta pin it should be two notches that you match up then we're gonna start at the bottom right here and stitch all the way up using five eighths of an inch seam allowance do that come back and we'll continue okay now that we stitch this down using a 5/8 of an inch seam allowance we're going to trim this down to about a quarter inch now with the seam allowance facing the opposite way of your front piece you're gonna go ahead and fold your fly now like this and as you can see the seam allowance underneath is facing the fly and now we're going to do under stitching one more time so let me turn it this way and we're going to add stitch on the fly side all the way down until we get to the bottom do that come back and we'll continue okay now that I understand right here on the fly side I went ahead and and give it a good press and then open the back up and now we're going to put our zero on so I'll turn my zipper wrong side up and you want to measure from the top of your zipper pool five-eighths of an inch and then mark where the five-eighths of an inch is on the top just so you can know where your seam allowance is so now with your zipper facing down you're going to place this part of your zipper on the right along the seam line right here just like that now you want to make sure your seam allowance which is 5/8 of an inch matches up and you can cheat it you can slide it down maybe another 1/8 of an inch just to be safe and not have your zipper get caught up into your seam on your waistband so just like that and then now I'm going to pin okay this is super easy we're gonna head to the machine you're gonna add stitch there's a zipper pull on the left side all the way down and then I'll quarter inch away from that stitch you want to stitch to the right of it all the way down again do that come back and we'll continue okay so I'm starting from the bottom okay so we get in here you want to pull the zipper down a little bit so we can finish up the end okay so slide over a quarter inch towards the inside and we're gonna do the exact same thing okay now we back from the machine we have our two stitches right here on our left side which is right here my right and then on the right side which is here my left you're just gonna turn under the race of the niche just like I did right here so just take your seam gauge and make sure there's three of an inch and then once you do that you're just going to open your zipper off and we're going to line this up and p.m. okay so now we're going to head up to the machine and you're just going to base this down right there on the edge of that fold do that come back and we'll continue okay now that we base this side here down we're going to pull the zipper up just to make sure is even and get the fly is flat all right now we're gonna put this to the side for just a moment now grab your underlap one should be interface and the other one it's not interface so right sides together okay so once you have them right sides facing we want to stitch this down on this curve side using 3/8 of an inch seam allowance do that come back and we'll continue okay so I went ahead and trim my seams turn it to the right side and I gave it a good press then I went ahead and baste along this side and also across the top and also just to have a clean finish on the inside I went ahead and Serge just this side right here so now I'm gonna grab my front piece and then I'm going to overlap from my seam allowance which is 5/8 of an inch so how I should have 5/8 of an inch of my under left underneath my front piece and then I'm going to pin okay so now basically going to do the exact same thing you're going to top stitch right here this time you're not going to base you're going to do an actual stitch so stitch over your basting stitch all the way down till you get to the bottom it might be a little difficult if your zipper pulls in the way so you might want to go ahead and zip it as far down as you can and then when you get to the bottom you might have to switch to a zipper foot just so you can get to the corner so do that come back and we'll continue okay now that we're back from the machine this right here is stitched down nice as you can see just like that zip it all the way up and now we want to turn it to the wrong side so right now I'm going to turn back my under lap unto my right side and I'm going to pin it just to keep it out of the way and now on the Turner right back around okay so now once I turn it around and we have the under lap pin it back on to this side here I'm going to take your pins I'm going to pin my fly to my front piece just a few times okay so now I'm going to head to the machine and I'm going to start here and I'm going to stitch all the way up following my stitching guide all the way up to the top put my needle down right there at the beginning of my stitching guide all the way up back to the beginning else at the end take your time okay so once we went ahead and stitch along our stitching line here on this side we're gonna go ahead and unpin the under lap underneath okay so before moving alone you want to go ahead and go to the Machine and you want to tack down the center right here so just basically just take a narrow zig-zag stitch and go up and down a little bit to secure right there where that is okay so now moving alone we're gonna go ahead and take one of your back pieces and then on one side of your front piece just gonna take one of mine and right sides facing so when I lay it over the top grab some pins and we're going to pin start with the outs in it first all the way down there's a nuts right here you need to match up okay so once we do the outseam you want to go ahead and do the inseam there's a notch right here that you match up and if you think is pulling it a little bit it's perfectly normal that's how the insane supposed to be just so we could go up your leg now right here what the crotch is you're gonna mash that up there's a marking right there okay what I would suggest you do a basting stitch 5/8 of an inch here and then a basting stitch 5/8 of an inch here try it on first see how it fits if you like it go ahead and do a permanent stitch for your inseam and for your out seen if it's not a good fit and you need to taper it in a bit more this is the time for you to do that if you need to take anymore just pinch on one side and divide it up on both sides and evenly taper it down okay so once you get the fit of one side you want to mark your adjustments or if you have any adjustments and do the other side the same exact way do that come back and we'll continue okay now that we have your out seam and your inseam done it should look like this hopefully you try them on when they have a nice fit we still have the back open and also underneath the crotch right here no I don't usually put belt loops on my dress pants but I will show you how to do them now now we're gonna put this to the side and we're gonna grab our carry off alright you carry is pretty simple basically we're just going to take the ends and fold them in like that and then we're gonna fold that one more time and have just like this then give it a good press do that come back and we'll continue okay so once you fold it you're gonna go ahead and add stitch it closed on one end and then add a stitch the folded edge all the way down and then next we're going to measure out six three and a half inch belt loops so first one I can just use that one to make the rest okay now that we have our six belt loops we're gonna go ahead and place them on to our pants and there are six markings at the waist of your pants you want to go ahead and place them okay so now we're gonna go to the Machine and you're going to tech each one down five-eighths of an inch and then after you do that you want to drop three-eighths of an inch below where you TEKT it at and you want to stitch it down at that 3/8 of an inch marking okay so just using the basting stitch I'm going to tack my first one down and then with a regular stitch I'm going to slide up you're just gonna slide out 3/8 of an inch and then you're gonna tack down using a regular stitch okay so have my five-eighths of an inch tacked down right here and then I dropped down 3/8 of an inch and did a tack down but a permanent one do that to all the rest of your belt loops ok now that we have our belt loops tacked on we're going to apply our waistband so we're just going to unzip it like that you want to grab your waistband and it should have a curve like this and if you look at one end you have notches here and you have a notch here at the end so you want to go ahead and allow your notch like that and when you pin the end here on your underlap it should be 5/8 of an inch longer now you want to go ahead and go to your machine and you're going to stitch all the way across using five eighths of an inch seam allowance now we're working on our right side left side it's gonna be a little bit different because we have the standing waistband okay now that we have one side stitch down we're going to do the left side now so find your notches your notch is gonna be right here on their other side so you're gonna stitch it there pin alright so your left side is going to stand just like this so now you're just gonna start here and stitch all the way till you get to the back using five eighths of an inch seam allowance do that come back we'll continue okay so now that my waistband is stitched on both sides I went ahead and took my remaining waistband and turned up the seam allowance and gave it a good press and the part that I folded is the unnourished part alright so go ahead and line it up just like this we're going to pin it all the way across okay so right here will we get to the belt loose you have two options you could turn under 3/8 of an inch and out there we stitch this down and turning it around you could stitch it on to the outside of your waistband but I want to catch mine within the seam so what I'm going to do is I'm going to pull it up just like that but as you see it's not gonna reach the edge but I'm going to encase it anyway because my seam allowance doesn't change so once I get that within the seam I'm going to pin okay now I'm going to start at the end and I'm going to stitch all the way until I get here and I'm gonna pivot 5/8 of an inch away from the edge and then stitch all the way down to the bottom okay and then I have this ticks down on this side never gonna trim the corner my seam allowance a little point out your corners never gonna get us a good press and before we finish it up we're gonna work on the other side okay so for the left side it's gonna be a little different I'm I went ahead and pressed up my Himalayas here but right here I left it open and I turn down the seam allowance in the back so I wanted to line this up and I pin it all the way around and then across the top so I'm head to the Machine and I'm going to start stitching here go up pivot and it all go across the top put my needle in and with Chloe's up an inch I'm one of the best at the beginning and also at the end pivot pivot again and then now you're gonna continue all the way down until you get to the end okay on this side right here I pressed and I pin just to front down you can see I pin through the seam allowance to catch the waistband on the other side I didn't do it all the way down because this the back needs to stay open for when I close in my back seam so now I'm gonna work on the left side of my waistband I'll go ahead and trim my corners first and now we're going to turn this right side out and then point out our corners this is going to give us that extended waistband okay and then we just took that seam allowance and there just like that and there you go so as I get it a good press that I lay flat and also remember you don't have to put your belt loose in your seam you can just wait until you stitch the same and then just tack them down on top of your waistband and then once you zip that up you'll see that it stands just like this the only thing I do to finish up is to do your buttonhole here your buttonhole here and then next you're going to take on your pant legs and turn it wrong side out and then you don't take your other pant leg and stick it right inside this is basically right sighs touching okay so once you got it tucked in good you want to go ahead and open up your seam allowance make sure that your seams are matching and you got a pin so the seam on the back starts at an inch and it grades into a 5/8 of an inch down here match up your three notches in the back okay and now we have the crotch now we're gonna start at an inch here now we got a stitch and just follow your guide if you didn't mark the stitching line to the back you want to go ahead and grab your back piece and put that marking down and then it's going to come in to 5/8 of an inch here and then we're gonna finish up right here okay now we're gonna back seat at the beginning and also at the end I'm gonna make sure the bottom seam here is facing up back stitch now this close out the entire seam here okay now we're going to take your pant leg out the other one now if I turn it around to the back my entire back is closed down just like this all my seams are lined up and all we have to do now let's continue pinning our waistband down so we basically that's going to take a pin and put it right in the middle of that seam catching the waistband on the inside and we going to do that all the way around and then once we do that we're going to go to the Machine and we're going to stitch in the ditch and that's gonna close the waistband out in the same for this out too you can go all the way around and stitch in the ditch there put your seam in the middle you want to go ahead and press that and then turn under your seam allowance and that's how it's going to look on the inside once again you want to pin it in the seam where it's catching right here now all the thing you love to do after you stitch in the ditch to encase your waistband underneath you want to do your buttonhole right here on the inside and then your bun hole right here on the extended waistband and then last but not least you want to turn under well your ham is give it a good press I would recommend a hand stitch if it's a pair of slacks but if it's denim or something real casual like chinos you can top stitch it if you want to okay now that you do all that you're all done all right congratulations you're all done thanks for watching please leave a
