DIY: Hemming Pants and Shorts That Are Too Long

See how easy it is to take a pair of pants or shorts that are too long, and hem them to the perfect length. Using a sewing machine straight stitch, this project is a snap.

I hemmed my shorts by hand and it took a while but was do worth it in the end! They used to be jeans that were ripped at the knee so I turned them into shorts. Thanks for the video!

Can you please do a video on how to taper pant legs in from a wide leg?

[kevinturner]

This is not really correct. Shorts are tapered, and when you simply cut them, the leg opening is too wide and they don't look right when you actually wear them.

Where do you buy the scarf rings for the hanger??? This is a great idea! Thanks so much!!! Kathy Rothschild

Thanks but nope, that won't work, merely folding the fabric up and sewing it will cause puckering. Have a great day. Hope you have lots of subscribers.

You clipped threads at the end. I suspect it will come undone.
