Eliminate front waistline darts

In other words, “No, belly darts!”

Hi Sewing Friends:

Sue said her waistline darts on her skirts and pants were not flattering on her round tummy.  She wanted to know what she could do to make her skirts and pants look better in the front.

If your front bulges out immediately below the waistline, waistline darts just don’t work.  Your fullness is right under the waist band, not at the end of the dart.  Here is the simple change that you need to make.
