Sewing pants is not as easy as at first glance. The main danger is the possibility of skewing the pants. The fact is that it is possible to sew trousers without complete re-cutting only by 2 sizes, not more. Significant transformations will require a complete redesign of the product, that is, in fact, to re-sew the pants.

To sew trousers in hips or to sew up a belt of trousers it is possible and independently, adhering to following rules:

  1. Sewed pants at the same time and from the outer seam, and on the step (internal) seam. Important! Seam on the outer seam is allowed only if it is necessary not to knit the trousers, but to remove excess tissue from a certain section of the thighs. Usually, in this case, the pants sit almost perfectly, and there is no need to sew the size itself. But also in this case, before you sew the trousers in the hips, you should try on them, staple "excess" fabric on the trousers, make a trial stitch by hand. And only after re-fitting you can spend a new stitch. If you cover your pants only from the outer seam, the trouser legs can be strongly skewed and it will be impossible to restore them to their original appearance.
  2. If the pants are slightly narrow, you do not need to rush and suture the side seam. It is necessary to try on trousers, to stab the outer seam, to resemble them, to sit down. If the pants "pull", it may be that you need to sew an inner, stepped seam.
  3. Before you sew the pants on the machine, you need to try them on and determine exactly where the trimming is required. At this point, trousers should be ripped off and swept at the required level. Then they try again, adjustments are made, and only after that the new seam is squandered.

For final fastening, it is desirable to manually sew the fold, since after washing the tape will be peeled off.
