But i have a question: Why did you only take in the waistband half the length of what you took in on the actual jeans? and did you do both sides?
Sorry, I want to get that clarifies before I begin taking in my three pairs of jeans…:-D

Up comes your tutorial in a search with pretty photos and clear instructions! I just finished this on some jeans that needed a total of 6 inches taken off. My stitches may not look pretty and I’ve had to hammer some of the thick seams down but yay! Thank you SO much <3!
I used this tutorial (http://quilt-knit-run-sew.blogspot.com/2009/05/tutorial-hemming-jeans-quilters.html) along with yours :)

Dan naai ik aan weerszijden van midden achter een stukje van dat elastiek al naaiende rek je dat elastiek uit . het is nog geen drie minuten werk en de broek zit perfect.

I think I will try to take them in so I can wear them again. Thanks for the tutorial. :) I don’t want to get rid of them because they are nice jeans from JC Penney.
