How do our pants compare?
When we released the Sculthorpe Pants we put together a little roundup showing you comparisons of the two different pants on different bodies.
Our Willandra Pants and our Sculthorpe Pants are both high-waisted pants, and are designed to sit a couple of inches above your belly-button. They both have tapered legs, but the flat front and unique side-seam of the Willandra Pants give them a whole different look!

What about the Glebe Pants?

Our Glebe Pants have an extra-long crotch curve which makes them our extra-high-waisted pants. Although we expect that 99% of makers won't need to lengthen the rise of the Willandra or Sculthorpe Pants, the rise on the Glebe Pants are extra high and it is very unlikely that you would need to make this higher.

Can you easily adapt the patterns?

If you love the extra-high-rise on the Glebe Pants and want your Willandra Pants to fit in a similar way or if you want your Glebe Pants to sit where your Sculthorpe Pants do then we recommend a little bit of creative hacking! It's pretty straightforward to use the crotch curve from your preferred Muna and Broad pants for the other patterns. They'll be very similar in shape and size, just trace on the difference (or maybe even tape the pattern pieces together temporarily).
As always, if you need help just get in touch!

Do the pants patterns ( thinking particularly of that side seam on the willandras) have a shorten lengthen line? I’m a whole lot of woman at 6’3 with a looooong inseam, so i usually add around 6-8 inches to pants. Would this be feasible with the willandras (and noice!)
Hi Larkin,
The Willandra and Sculthorpe pants have a similar amount of taper but it’s much easier to ease the leg of the Sculthorpe in to create a more tapered fit (should you do desire). The Willandra has a closer fit around the belly and the hips.
Hope that’s helps!
Hi there
Which of the Willandra and Sculthorpe pants are the most tapered?
thanks
What is the preferred way to take 3/4” away from the rise on the Sculthorpe. I’m new to garment sewing. Thanks!
Which of the pants is best for a beginner ?
