This is such an easy project. Jeans has been such a trendy fashion for men and women for decades, and it’s far more than the original function but chic addition for ladies now. We can wear jeans long, skinny, straight or flare ones are all my favorites. if you don’t like your long jeans anymore, you can easily turn them into a short summer pants or shorts. It is quite a simple project. You cut the jeans to your desired length and sew the broderie anglaise lace trim to the jean shorts to add an extra inseam!
How to:
- Cut the Jeans to Shorts
- Decide where you want to decorate your lace. (Place the lace using the side hem as a center if you choose the side trim)
- Stitch the lace along the hem with thread. You can glue the borders of the lace on the shorts with the hot glue gun, too.
