Jean Therapy

I have tons of jeans that fit great, but they are so out-dated with the big boot cut or flared hemlines.  I figured that instead of getting rid of them, I'd just do a major over-haul of the leg seams to modernize them.

I laid them flat on the floor and pinned where I needed to cut to get the right shape.

I used my pinking shears to cut off the excess fabric and then stitched a new inseam.

I left the length on the jeans because I like to wear heels with jeans.  I'll just cuff them when needed.

I ended up altering 4 pairs of jeans today.  It really was quick and simple.  I have more lined up next time I get a chance to sew.

Have a nice weekend.
