Burda Style For people who sew
When you make your own pattern from pants or skirt or short, you will always have the problem of how to curve the waistband.
Last night I had a briljant idea (eventhough I say it myself): What about using a belt. Not a new one, but one used for a couple of months. the belt has the perfect curve for your body.
I tried it with several shorts, and it worked out perfect. you even have the right width :D
I hope you can use this trick :D
