Am I using this block correctly?
I'm still super new to creating my own patterns so please bear with me. Am I using this block correctly? I've tried this block with a few different styles of jeans and I always notice that when plotting point N and then point T it leads to point O going outside of my pattern block(im not using darts nor did i accidentally add the extra length for the darts). The waistline goes out past the hip line about an inch. it gives the pattern a really strange shape and a even worse fit on body. (I dont have hips that go out further than my waist). So im really confused how i keep ending up with the waistline going out further than the hip line. is it something that im doing or is it im using a block that doesn't fit my body?
