Watch as I add a SLEEVE to my pant legs! You can use the same technique, or you can simplify it using just a strip of fabric to help your old skinny jeans find new life and fresh style.

Not sure how I didn’t find this video sooner. Love the result of yours. I just did this with a pair of button fly dark blue skinny jeans. I went to a thrift store, found a similar stretch jean in a lighter shade of blue. Love them now.

Great remake! That curved seam really creates interest. Between it and the cuff, they keep the whole insert from looking like a homemade change. Thanks so much😊

So amazing. Looks great. This week I lengthened the sleeves of a cuffed, long sleeved denim jacket by cutting across the sleeve above the slit. I did not have the same material, but I went with a heavier jeans material of a similar colour. I cut it with the grain. It was surprisingly effective. Yoy would not know it was not part if the garment. I added about 4 inches to the sleeve length and it is really comfy now. Thanks for giving me the courage to just cut up a favourite garment and know I can do it!

This is a great alteration! I would also like some embroidery on the gusset piece please, since finding a cuff might be hard. I look forward to your next project.

I really liked the cuff, once they were lowered. Ingenious way of widening the legs. Can you raise a low waist next? I have never liked low waist, but I like my jeans otherwise. Would love your take on how to raise the waist without just plonking another waistband on top of the existing one, which I think looks wrong and botchy, any ideas??

I was just going over some of your older blogs & came across this beauty! I was just thinking how I’m so over skinny jeans as well! Brava for a job well done! This thought came to mind to restyle my skinny jeans but, didn’t know of the proper way to do so, thank you again for the inspirational videos

I've added a narrow triangle to the calf area of some too-skinny jeans. This is a cool idea! With cuff! So you didn't hem them?

They look great Catherine. Well done. I never did get into skinny jeans so I won't be altering any. Straight jeans, lower waisted suit my figure better. Anyways you look fab in those and the cuff is a real interest 👍

Dear Catherine Sews.... I hope you won't mind a bit of Poetry in Motion to encourage people to watch and learn about sewing skills or the method of madness to accomplish what you do as skillful as a superheroine... Here goes... Some people are gifted firefighters and they tango with a hot blaze But their clothes are stitched to keep them protected It takes skill to stitch and sew, an itchy nitchy... NO... That's niche! Stitch and Stitch because even a witch needs someone they can trust to sew so a witch can glow YES... Witches glow under a moon as they fly through the air using a broomstick Some people get confused and think all witches use a broom-stitch NO... It's called a sewing machine, a mahagick divine device with a tiny Mahagick silver wand It's called a sewing needle, not to be confused with a Beatle! And presto the firefighter's pants are stitched up and he is once again ready to battle a hot blaze And Catherine Sews and Sews, that is her itchy nitchy...NO... That's niche! Sometimes a poet can stitch the wrong werd... NO... That's stitched WORD, silly And so the werd word of the day is Stitch and Sew Catherine Sews and sews Alright! Sincerely, Clayton Crawford.... Always in Good Taste.... CHEERS!..........Catherine Sews on and on

I love the wider leg but not the button fly. Way too busy with all that's going on the side of the pants.
