Real Tree Pants Fix

Hey Blogging World,

I found a pair of real tree brand pants at goodwill it usually costs $90 I found it for $7 they were too big and too long (They were men's size 30) though so I hemmed to the bottom up about 4 inches and sewed the sides thinner & the crotch higher. Now they fit. I would never be able to afford pants that expensive and I got them for 7 bucks!!!!!

During the process 

Turned inside out then marked were I was going to sew

Pinned it

Sew on the lines

Cut off the excess fabric. About a half an inch from the stitches

Zig Zag on the edge to prevent fraying 

Hem the bottoms up 4 inches

Shorts too Short (no problem)

Hey Blogging World,

In today's society less is more. In the form of short shorts & short prom dresses ect etc etc.... Well with my long legs basically any shorts I would purchase look like short shorts on me so what I did and what I am going to show you is I bought jeans that fit in the waist and measured from the top down 14 inches then from the bottom to that mark I made And cut off the legs. Then I sewed around the shorts leg about half an inch from the edge so it would not fray to much.

 

I am probably going to make a skirt with the pants legs. I will post it if I do.
