ジーンズ作成4日目はミシン2台とロックミシン総出でお裁縫です。
ズボンにファスナーつけるのなんて生まれて初めてだけど、結構上手にできたと思う。(でもファスナーの位置がちょっと端によりすぎたかな)
試し履きしてフィット感を見てみました。
(Day 3 is here.)
I didn't mind changing the thread from regular thread to topstitching thread on my Janome, but the Janome did not like the topstitching thread with jeans needle so I pulled out my Kenmore for top stitching. Last time the Kenmore was out of the case was back in 2015 but it still worked and had no problem with topstitching (using a topstitching needle on this). The machine does smell a bit of old oil so I will have to clean it up later.
My very first fly front. I aligned the edge of the zipper tape with center front. The zipper might be a bit too far into the fly for my liking.
I basted the rest and tried them on. Great selfie opportunity in a bathroom on a step ladder. I need a long mirror...
A bit tight around my sagging bum.
Worn with my Itch to Stitch Bellavista.
Kind of impressed with my almost real pair of jeans.
