Thank You….I have grandkids that love to frequent high end second hand or thrift stores for treasures ! Then they need grandma to help them fix, hem, take in, let out, remove sleeves and collars, whatever it takes to make that treasure work! This will be so helpful!
I have a daughter who was very, very tall and very thin when she was young. She would grow too tall for her jeans long before she outgrew them width-wise. I used to do the same thing to pants so she could continue to use them. Sometimes I put a print fabric insert she liked between tthe leg and bottom hem piece. It was a great money saver, and her pants fit her well.
You repeated the same thing in your opening so many times I almost closed your video and moved on. Once you finally got to the point I enjoyed your video, thank you.

Love that you used the decorative stitches on your machine down at the hem and added it to the pocket also! Thanks for sharing this idea!
Very interesting changes for the same lengthened result! Great instructions & camera work, Laura!
I love the trim you made, it is gorgeous. Thank you for this inspiration.
Your second choice is absolutly genious. I loved that trim idea.
That interlocking method is amazing! Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Hahaa! I used to do this in the 70s (the trim even looks the same😂). Thanks for the trip down memory lane!
Liked that addition with your sewing machine. Great idea on the pocket. I am hoping to repair my jeans like that!! Thank you!!
Laura, you are amazing! Thanks for sharing all you terrific ideas!
Thanks for this helpful information ! Loved all of your examples and detailed demo! 💕 from PA !
Love the trim that you created.
Thank you for a number of wonderful ideas!
Thanks for so many great tips. I’m currently making my second of three planned denim quilts and can see using some of these trim techniques.
Love these options
Very useful information . Thank you for sharing
Great ideas....thanks for sharing
thinking of lengthening much higher on the leg as the jeans are torn at the knees and i think seams would look cool there
Great information!
Great ideas
Thank you!❤
First time I have seen the folds to add length; thanks for sharing that.
Good video. Do you use the same denim thread in the bobbin?
I used a 50 weight thread
😂 I’ve never had that problem even ankle grazers are like sitting on the floor!
haha I understand. I am only 5'1". So this was very unusual for me...
Usually need to shorten by 7inches. That’s a challenge especially if flares out at bottom
Why this is 10 years longg
