easy wood projects - Flared Jeans into Skinny Jeans Tutorial

easy wood projects

Its a happy day when you fit into jeans that youve been waiting for YEARS to fit again.

But its a sad day when you realize they are grossly out of style . . . and maybe *ahem* they were even out of style the last time you wore them.

Start with your wretched flares . . .

Try them on inside-out.

Pin (on the outside) one leg to a comfortable fit,
be sure to leave at least an inch away from your
legs--it will be smaller when you sew it. (You can
go as loose or tight as you want--I dont like my
jeans skin tight on my calves. These are actually
more "boot cut" than skinny jeans.

Remove jeans and mark pins with a highlighter

Remove pins, and use a ruler to connect your pin
dashes--make the line as straight as you can
[Only YOU can prevent forest fires]

Sew over the line, be sure to backstitch several times at both ends.

And sew a second seam alongside the first . . . 

Heres how it looks before cutting . . .

Cut away the flare, not too close to the seam

Fold your sewn and cut leg over the "un-sewn" one.  I used my iron
on this step to make sure the legs were completely the same.

Cut the"un-sewn" pant leg.  Then sew a double seam up the side.

Try those puppies on!

Totally got these cuties at Deseret Industries

I dont care if light-colored jeans are out.
I love em.
