!!! DO NOT UNDO THE ORIGINAL SEAM WITHOUT TEST FITTING YOUR NEW SEAM FIRST!!!
I don’t quite understand how a full 3” is removed if only 3/4” is taken from either side
Thank you! Is there a rule for how much you can taper a leg? Many of my sewing patterns have too much ease from the knee down, the thigh area is fine, I have chicken legs lol.
i got chicken legs... so am always tappering my pants
I taylored my son’s prom suit pants with your tutorial- they turned out great!! Thank you!
Thankyou, it is useful at the end the moment ✌️
Do you think this could be done with shorts?
what's the thing you placed inside the pants to press the new seam. I don't eat pork either
This tutorial was great & easy to understand now I feel more confident about tapering pants correctly
I enjoy watching the process so speed-up video is difficult to concentrate on. But it is a revelation to see someone do it. I've actually been turned away from alteration shops-- or it was way expensive.
Great tutorial!❤ thankyou, Elfie
Thanks Elfie! Your'a BOSS. I've been wanting to learn how to do this myself. Very well done and informative vid 🙂👍.😊
I have Liked and Subscribed. Exactly what I wanted. Clear explanation and demonstration
I'm hoping to bell the bottoms of some wide leg corduroys i have using this method. Im hoping to taper from either side to slim the most at the knee. Could you maybe make a video showing how youd go through this process? Tell what you learn along the way? Im new to sewing, so much so that i still do all my stitching by hand. so far ive repaired seams with ladder stitches and sewn patches, but this seems pretty ambitious for me to do by hand.

Does the inseam line push up infront if you just do the outside?
Just used this to taper my dickies pants into more of a slim dress pants fit. Thank you. Im a male in my 30s and i like to have fitted clothes but cannot afford a tailor so this works great. I only brought the inner seam in. Should i do both sides for a better fit or will doing just the inner leg seam have the same result?
Where to start the taper?
Did you use straight stich?
