To tighten a jeans waist with elastic, you can feed elastic through the belt loops, secure it with stitches, and then sew up the waistband. This hack provides a cleaner finish.
Here's a step-by-step breakdown based on available information:
- Feed the Elastic: Thread the elastic through the belt loops on either side of the jeans waist.
- Secure the Elastic: Sew a stitch to secure the elastic in place, ensuring it's firmly attached to the waistband under the belt loops.
- Sew the Waistband: After securing the elastic, sew up the waistband to conceal the elastic and provide a clean finish.
- Check the Fit: Hopefully, after completing these steps, your jeans will fit perfectly.
This method offers a simple way to downsize the waist of your jeans using elastic, providing a more tailored fit.
