​If you’re looking to sew popular jeans styles like barrel-leg jeans or make your own Celine jeans (as seen on Grammy-winning rapper Kendrick Lamar during his Super Bowl LIX halftime show), we are here to help. We’ve collected some of our favorite new and trendy jeans patterns for you to consider.

Choosing a pattern is just the beginning. We have an entire Project Guide dedicated to teaching you everything you need to know to sew a perfect pair of jeans. 

Ash Jeans by Megan Nielsen Patterns

This pattern is ideal for stretch denim and includes four cuts: slim, skinny, flare, and wide-leg. Plus, it has three length options: tall, regular, and cropped. The Ash Jeans pattern is just right for making up some Celine flared dupes. The patternmaker says this design has a comfortable rise and a close fit through the waist and hips. ​It is sized 0 to 18 for hips 34 inches to 46 inches, and sized 14 to 30 for hips 42 inches to 58 inches.
