[Nfb-krafters-korner] hemming jeans

[Jennifer Jackson]

Can someone walk me through hemming a pair of jeans? I can sew by both
machine and hand so either way is fine with that. I have someone who can
help me pin the jeans up and figure out the right length, but it is a guy
who I will need to be able to give very specific directions too.

 

I could even be happy if someone explains how to pin and measure the jeans
before I take them to a dry cleaner to do it. I know how long in the back,
but how to I get the right break over the top of the foot? Should that kind
of measuring just be part of the service when I take them in to be altered?
