After you have made a body mold and crotch curve template of your body space for adjusting your pant pattern, you need to learn how to use it. I found a blog article that explains how to align your pattern, position your template on the pattern, and draw the corrected lines. It includes text and photos.

Want to make a body mold with tin foil? Search in the PatternReview Tips for "Find your Crotch Curve/Body Space with Foil!"

Ah, yes, for those of us who made the crotch curve a la PR...this is the missing link. Thanks, Ashford.

Great--thank you. I own practically every available tool and gadget on the market but don't have complete instructions on how to use the things! I would appreciate a book written on how to actually use all the toys out there for sewing.
