Sep 13, 2021

In life, people often encounter this situation, the elastic band of the pants has dropped, but there is no sewing machine available for a while, and everyone thinks of hand sewing. What should I do if the elastic of my pants drops?

1. After the trousers are sewn, do not sew the waistband first, and put them inside out.

2. After the two ends of the elastic band are overlapped and stitched together, the length of the elastic band is reduced by 10% of the waist circumference. Use the elastic band as the positioning point of 4 equal parts, and also make the positioning point of 4 equal parts on the waist of the trousers.

3. Put the elastic band on the waistband, fix the elastic band and the positioning point on the waistband with a long needle, then fold the seam of the waistband in two, stretch the elastic band and stitch.

4. Note that the elastic band joints should be staggered with the joints on the waistband, otherwise the stitches are too thick.

The fine point of elastic band can be used as the bottom line of clothing accessories, especially suitable for pants, baby clothing, sweaters, sportswear, rhyming suits, wedding dresses, T-shirts, hats, busts, masks and other clothing products. It can also be used for tag lines, daily necessities, crafts, accessories, toys, stationery, and DIY handmade lines.
