Drafting Barrel Pants with a Relaxed Fit | The Front Seam Creates the Entire Shape

In this lesson, we’re drafting a barrel-leg trouser pattern from scratch. This design features volume through the thigh and knee, tapering toward the hem, with a curved front seam that defines the silhouette. We’ll also walk through key adjustments like lowering the crotch and extending the crotch extension for a relaxed fit. This is an advanced lesson built on a solid understanding of basic pant blocks—so if you’re ready to get more creative. ************************************************ 🎊 Masterclass – Pant Base Frame 🎊 https://www.patternstudio101.com/balance Learn how to draft a pant base frame and fix pant balance issues. 📚 The Pattern Studio Technical Library 📚 https://www.patternstudio101.com/youtube Build your own pattern-making reference library with weekly technical instructions. 🟢 PAD System 🟢 https://www.padsystem.com/content/pricing Get 5% off professional pattern-making software with code PS101A.
