Hemming Jeans 101

Having a wide hips and not so gifted model legs, buying a pants was really a hard for me. That's why Im suki of Bench. Perfect fit talaga. Feeling Lucy Torres or Kris Aquino... hahaha. At dahil sa walang bench dito, paano na ang patalon ko na ubod ng haba na pwede ng ipalampaso sa sahig. So ano dapat gawin? Ipa-alter. I asked somebody how much yung alterations dito, ay sus $5 per leg... so $10/pair.. alangan naman isang leg lang noh! E sus 2 pants kaya ung binili ko... so gagastos ako ng $20. Eh isang blouse na yun. Naisip ko, ako na lang ang magtatahi. Hmmm... kailangan ng sewing machine. Nyak, e di ganon din gagastos pa rin ako ng $20. At dahil sa nagtitipid talaga ako, tatahiin ko na lang with my own bare hands. Correct! Alam ko naman ang basic stitches.
Here's the step-by-step instruction (better if you have sewing machine)

Measure your jeans up to what length you want.

From your measurement divide it by 2. Then fold it again. Do not include the original hem.
Secure it with pins
Stitch it. I did a back stitch.

Cut the excess fabric

Turn it over and Tadahhhh!!!

Oha.... iba na ang practical... hehehe
