Monica G said... I think the jeans look great despite the troubles you had. Are you adding additional SA in the future? 12/10/06 7:56 AM
LMH said... Monica--yes, I'll switch to 5/8" SAs on the legs & crotch seams next time so that I can serge them with a 5 thread, which comes out to 3/8," I think, once everything is cut off. I'll retain a 1/4" SA on the waist, though, since that doesn't get serged. 12/10/06 10:08 AM
