Sunday and Crotch Curve Comedy

Hello everyone on a gorgeous, sunny Sunday in southern Oklahoma.  We watched Rev. John Hagee this morning who spoke on DREAMS.  Soooooooooooo good.  How many people in the Bible had a dream:  The prodigal son -- Joseph -- Daniel.  Hagee says you should WRITE IT DOWN.  If you can't write it down in sixty words or less, then you don't even know what your dream is, according to Hagee.  I KNOW EXACTLY what my dream is, but I won't share it here since it is very personal.  I'm sure you all have your own dreams. 

I did get a brand new SFD Pant BACK drawn yesterday, and I worked ALL DAY except for Church today on fixing the crotch curve.  I have spent countless hours in the past doing this.  I really want to perfect it, but I'm not sure I can.  What I have now is a COMEDY.  I even made you a video of it so you can get a real good laugh.

Here is a picture of my FRONT and my BACK with the corrections made to match MY shape.  Phylly says I have to call it a "bowl".  If this makes sense to you, I hope you will let me know.  I am going to make up a muslin of it -- just to a few inches below the crotch -- tomorrow morning.  I can't imagine how this could possibly fit the front of me, but if I read all the directions right, it should fit perfectly.  AND if this thing is right, I have been making my crotch DEPTH almost 2 inches too long for years, and my crotch length has been too short.  I hope that someday the LIGHT COMES ON in my brain, and I can "see" this.

Maybe Glenda can help me with this, but what it APPEARS to show is that I need a lot of crotch "length" UNDERNEATH me, and not so much in a raised waistline. 

Okay.  I am in no way advising anyone to try this, but here is the pattern I'm going to try in the morning:

How do you like the FRONT CENTER SEAM?  I will soften that sharp jag a bit, but I'm going to cut it that way.  I'll show you a picture tomorrow.

Pray for me!

Hugs, Joy
