I killed my favorite pair of jeans last week. It was terrible. I was out on date night with my husband when a worn spot on my inner thigh became a hole.
I ended up learning the most from this tutorial on Spruce Crafts. https://www.thesprucecrafts.com/change-jeans-in-to-jeans-skirt-2977344 I absolutely did not take pictures of the in-process conversion. That's not my thing and I'm a pretty darn slow seamstress to begin with. It did take me over an hour just to rip out the seams! I used up most of an evening to get the skirt to the point shown below. Yep, it's not hemmed. After over 3 hours you might be thinking, "Dang, girl. You should be done!" Like I said, I AM NOT A FAST SEAMSTRESS. I'm taking this beauty with me when I visit my mom. She will help me hem it up correctly (i.e. adjusting it so the back hits the same location relative to my leg as the front. I am quite proud of how it's turned out thus far as it has a good fit. Here's a link to my follow-up post: Favorite Jeans Converted to Skirt Follow-up
