SEWING PANTS




Stitching pants
This tutorial is long overdue . but my son jus had his birthday and i was busy with that as i had a DIY party.
the pattern making i did before. 
This is the instructions to stitch these pyjama pants
This is the way my mother used to stitch most of her clothes before she had a machine which could zigzag or a serger
When u stitch like this the edges which can fray are closed inside and the life of the garment especially children’s is increased



Here is what u do
First stich is always done on the right side with a small seam allowance
Second is done normally on the wrong side

First u stitch the top of the pants on both sides

Then u open this so it looks like pants
Then u stitch from the crotch to the leg hole
Repeat on the other side


Now use free arm sewing and hem the leg holes

Now at the top fold twice enough for elastic width, stitch all around but leave a gap for the elastic to go in



Insert the elastic and stitch two ends together

Now ur pants r done 


Have urn kid model it for u
