These jeans are based on Burda 8/2009 #127. I made a few modifications to the pattern, including increasing the back rise to fit, reducing the back yoke a little, omitting the front pockets and adding patch pockets to the front and back. Clearly I also flared the leg from the knee down and I mock flat, felled the seams. I am super happy with the fit of these jeans and plan to make another pair.

That looks like a perfect fit! You look like a GAP model. Lovely! Would you say that a beginner might be successful trying to make a pair of jeans or would you suggest doing more sewing before trying it out?
