Materials:
One pair of old Jeans
Pins
Chalk
Sewing Machine/ Serger
Step 1: Put your old jeans on inside out and pin. You might want to mark the pinned line with chalk. I pinned from the inside but you could also pin from the outside.
Step 2: Baste stitch the pinned line. Try out the jeans and if it is not the right fit, remove the baste stitches and try again. If it feels great, stitch over the baste stitches.
Step 3: Serge or zigzag stitch the edges.
Enjoy your new jeans! These look great with boots!

Thanks for the clever post. I'll show it to my son's girlfriend. she loves to sew.
They do look good with boots. I'm not sure if chubby short people should wear skinny jeans though. Does anyone know? I'm not too big but kinda plump-ish.
I think it would look good. I like to wear a long shirt to cover my caboose. Or a long sweater this time a year.

Gale, I was wondering the same thing about myself. Here is another gal who made skinny jeans. She is much slimmer looking in the skinny jeans (after) jeans in my opinion. I think I'll be "skinnying" up my jeans now. http://jeanrepair.blogspot.com/2010/05/how-to-turn-your-wide-legged-jeans-into.html
