Hemming pants

Once upon a time, I bought a pair of pants for a good price. Alas, the legs were too long.

However, with merely a needle and thread, I set out to shorten the legs. I first figured out how short the legs needed to be and folded under the extra material. Using pins to keep the material in place can be helpful.

Then I turned the pants inside out and started to sew one long, straigt line around the leg.



With one leg finished, I noticed such a difference!
