Pimping Up Shorts Made From Old Jeans

Found 1 pair of eldest prince old jeans which was torn (as usual) at the knees. The tear were so big, they were beyond repair. So I asked princess if she could fit in them and they fit!

So I cut off the legs up till the torn areas...


Flip the jeans over to the wrong side and fold up about 1cm at the hem...


Measure the circumference of the hems and cut out 2 pieces of scrap fabric...


Fold about 1 cm on both sides (lengthwise) of the fabric....


Pin on the fabric around the hem...


Fold where the fabric joins...


Sew around the hems...


Flip the jeans over to the right side and fold up the hem...


There you have it, another way to add interest to a pair of old-made-new shorts!
