From Seamwork:
Don’t be afraid to sew some flare. Chelsea is a hip, classic pair of flared jeans with all sorts of details to hug your curves and show off a touch of retro style. They feature a high rise, tabbed belt loops secured with rivets, double darts at the back, and a flare that begins right below the knee.
The secret to Chelsea’s great fit is a fabric with a bit of stretch and a deep-set zipper fly that won’t peek open while you’re wearing them. If this is your first pair of jeans, you’ll learn all the techniques you need to sew your own closet full of denim you’ll wear for years.
Chelsea Bonus: The Chelsea member bonus offers two alternative front patch pockets, a slash patch pocket and a curved slash patch pocket.
Recommended Fabrics: Medium to heavy weight stretch woven fabrics with 10% stretch, denim, twill, or corduroy.
Sizes: 00 – 30
