- Where can I get a FREE motorcycle chaps sewing pattern with instructions?
My son wants to be a bike guy where can i find a free pattern for chaps and doorag? Thanks

A There's no free pattern for something that specialized. You might be able to improvise something, especially if you have a picture to follow, Chaps are simply tubes that have an angled piece that goes up the outer leg and attaches to a belt. Use a piece of scrap fabric and pin it around the leg with the seam in the inner part of the leg. cut the excess fabric from the crotch up to the waist, leaving a tail to be sewn over the belt. Add an inch and a half to that tail for ease and for folding over. When you are happy with the look and fit, then use the scrap cloth as a pattern and cut two, one for each leg. Sew up the inseam, fold over the raw edges going up the outer leg and turn over the top part, making sure the belt can fit through the tube. The doorag is simply a simple square of fabric knotted into place, about 16 to 24 inches square, with the raw edges folder over twice a quarter inch each fold and sewn in place with a straight stitch.

- How can i cutoff my motorcycle chaps correctly?


A Turn them inside out. Put them on. Get a marker and feel for your .... whatever parameters you want er... exposed? Make dots on each leg. Take the pants off. Lay them on the bed, still turned inside out. Match up the dots and cut through all 4 pieces of fabric while pulling it taut so as to get an even cut.
