I'll try to explain what I'm seeing. You showed sewing the curved seam from the top all the way down to be bottom on the front 2 pieces and then the back two pieces. Then you showed sewing the side seams and then the waist for elastic but that would now be open in the crotch so it would be like a skirt. Where are you attaching the front and back to form legs? hope this clarified my previous comment. Thanks again.

Hi thank you for the video. I'm a little confused if you wouldn't mind explaining when do you attach the seam between the legs? you are showing to sew the curved seams down but when do they get attached to form legs? hope you can understand what I'm asking. Thanking you in advance.
