Hi. I swear I saw tips on this a week ago on here regarding this issue, but I cannot find it tonight for some reason.

Anyway, I'm making a pair of jeans out of some raw selvage denim, and though one pant leg was fine, the other has some twist in it and I cannot figure it out how to correct it. All notches are matching up and the side selvage matches up as well. I'm a little irritated because I am pretty meticulous when it comes to cutting. The grainline is pretty straight too. Anyone happen to know where the topic is on this? Or have some tips?

Is your denim a twill weave--the kind with the diagonal threads?

Yes it is twill weave. Wow I'm almost a year late on this reply. Wish there were an easier way to find my posts.
