 Hi,
According Ch.10, in pants alternation, we may only need to decrease the crotch length in the back , in order to make room for  tummy and flat buttocks. we don't need to add amount in the tummy area in the front pattern. Right?
I'm not sure I have flat buttocks or not, but there is excress fabric under my buttocks area! I have very skinny leg. 
What is the right procedure to solve my full tummy and skinny thigh problem? How can I remove the excress fabric and make my pants not so wide and hang nicely. Thanks in advance.

Re: Tummy and skinny thigh

 Dear sewsewmom,

You can choose from one of the options below, depending on your body shape.

For a flatter buttocks
If you are happy with the fit on the front, but you have excess fabric below the buttocks. You can shorten the back crotch length the way I show in the video lesson. 

For a flatter buttocks and protruding belly
If it seams that the fabric is pulling on the tummy area, you can add to the front crotch length the way I show in the video lesson. However since you have excess fabric below the buttocks, you still need to reduce the back crotch length. 

Hope this helps.

Happy sewing,

Nehzat
