My husband needed his shorts hemmed. They were about an inch too long and it’s almost summer, well it’s May we just aren’t having summer weather yet, his shorts needed to be completed. The measuring and pressing part of hemming them is the most important part of this process. It is with most but usually I don’t pay too close attention but with it I needed to be precise.
Step 1. I needed to figure out what the desired length was and then turn the shorts right side in.
Step 3. Press the bottom of the shorts and measure and mark desired length.
Step 4. Measure about an inch and a half below your desired finished length and cut off excess fabric.
Step 5. Fold over about 1/4 of an inch and press
Step 8. Press again, flip right side out and press again.
Step 9. Repeat for the other leg.
