I bought this pair of jeans on clearance for like $10, but they were too long. Like, hanging over the heal of my tennis shoes or heals too long. Tripping over them long.
Since I spent so little on them, I figured this was a good time to give this tutorial a try. What's the worst that can happen? I ruin a pair of $10 jeans. I puncture myself trying to poke a needle through the thick hem of a jean. I get angry and give up. That's the worst that could have happen.
But it did not! It took me a total of about 90 minutes. If I had a sewing a machine, it would have taken about 20 minutes.
Look and be impressed.
I always forget to take a photo of the project before. So, here is one at the halfway point. Leg in front has been hemmed; leg in back has not.
And here they are all finished! I have to say, I am pretty impressed with myself.
Nice work! I'm super impressed that it was done without a sewing machine. Pat yourself on the back, that's not an easy task!
