Instructions
Step 1
First, determine how exactly the item was damaged, and what may be needed for repair. Pick up the necessary tools, pieces of fabric and get to work.
Step 2
If the zipper breaks in your pants, you need to do the following. Gently rip the zipper out of the fly. Do this very carefully to avoid damaging the fabric. To do this, you can use a special tool - a ripper.
Step 3
Then remove all threads and iron the pants where the zipper was removed. This is done to minimize openings from old zippers. If ironing does not work, wash your pants by hand.
Step 4
Then baste on a new zipper and try on the pants. If the zipper fits and fastens, machine the zipper, then remove the basting. The pants are ready.
Step 5
If the trousers are denim, and the bottom of the trousers is frayed, then there are several ways to solve this problem. The most radical way is to make capri pants out of long trousers. To do this, you need to carefully fold the pants and trim the edges evenly. Then bend and machine.
Step 6
The next way to repair the edges of your trousers is to overlap them with a similar fabric. To do this, cut off the edges, and then sew on a pre-cut piece of fabric that looks like a trouser. To avoid showing the seam, make trousers with a cuff.
Step 7
If denim trousers are frayed at the bottom, then for the stylish and fearless, you can process these edges with the help of iron zippers. Cut the threads from the edges of the jeans and sew the cut iron zippers to the inside of the legs so that the teeth protrude from under the pants. It looks very stylish. But do not wear soft leather shoes, the metal teeth will scratch them.
