Making jeans tighter

If you're sick and tired of your old jeans you can redesign them easily! This is a small project I did this summer. I bought a pair of (quite expensive) jeans in Korea that you can't get here or in the states. They where a wee bit to baggy though... So, this is how you can tighten a pair of jeans! No responsibility taken...

Step 1: Here you can see how I've drawn lines where I want to tighten them. Remember to needle the line, turn them right and to actually TRY THEM ON so they are just tight enough!
You have to roll down the hem as shown below.

Step2: Sew where you drew the line.

Step 3: Cut away excess fabric.
Step 4: Zig-zag the edges either apart as shown below, or zig-zagged together. Roll up the hem and sew it with a correct coloured thread.

Try them on :)


Before... and after!
