How to sew jeans between legs

The most common problem when wearing many trousers is wear between the legs. The defect is repaired using a machine or manually. Methods for eliminating gaps – external patch on jeans between the legs or applying an inner patch. Options for external decoration:

  • patches in the form of a star, palm, any other figure (material – at its discretion, the main thing is to contrast with the main fabric);
  • darn decorative stitches.

No patch

There are ways to mask scuffs or any other damage without applying a patch. The most common: thermal drawing and jeans fitting. The first option does not require special skills. You will need a stencil (a drawing for it can be found on the Internet or done independently), acrylic paints on the fabric, a brush. Execution Sequence:

  1. Place a stencil on the damaged area.
  2. Apply paint with a brush.
  3. Dry fabric.

The second method is more complicated. To do this, you will need a sewing machine, pins, a flizelin or doubler flap (you can replace it with a piece of denim), threads in the color of jeans. Progress:

  1. Pull the torn edges together with long stitches. Important: the material must not be tightened.
  2. Spread the lateral shock of the trousers next to the hole about 20 cm.
  3. Attach a flizelin flap to the hole from the wrong side (it should be larger in size than the gap).
  4. Secure with pins or stitch with stitch..
  5. Using a sewing machine, do the thing using a zigzag stitch. Important: lay the seams as close to each other as possible. In the absence of a reverse stroke in the machine after each seam will have to turn the product.
  6. When the line reaches the pins, they must be removed and continue to work until the gap is completely sealed.
  7. Trim non-woven residues.
  8. Close side seam.
