  1. In that photo with Moosh peeking out from behind you, are you doing Pee Wee Herman’s Tequila Dance? 🙂 Totally looks like you are. And I would happily trade all the blog help in the world for someone who could actually teach me how to use the sewing machine I’ve had for two years and have never used!

  2. HOT ASS!

    Those are way cute jeans! You know- I think they should make jeans for girls who have not had babies and jeans for women that have! Like our hips are ever going to regain their girlish charm again! Much to our dismay!

    I wish I could sew! Yet another thing I can’t do! (But Jesse can) Blame it on my lame mother! LOL!

  4. I really must embrace my inner domestic self and learn how to sew as I am no stranger to jean trauma. Honestly, where are all these 7 foot tall women they are making these pants for?

  5. Nice job!

    My sewing skills suck. I will only hem pants when it doen’t matter that I can’t sew straignt, like running or yoga pants!

    I’m 5’3″, and my problem is the “regular” length is just slightly longer than my highest heels, and the “short” or “petite” length is only the right length for bare feet!

  6. You rock, lady friend. Me? I’m off to a professional tailor to get mine hemmed. Because I don’t have your mad skills. I also go to the tailor to get buttons put back on shirts. Last time Pynchon went in, they did it for free because they felt so bad he was married to a domestic slackstress like me …

  7. Cute jeans, and excellent job with the hemming! The first hem job I ever did (on a pair of jeans, because I’m short) one leg ended up about 1/2 an inch shorter than the other. Yeah, that was attractive!

  8. Nice job! And awesome jeans. I just taped a skirt that lost its hem–you could hear the scotch tape crinkling against my legs when I walked.

    Then I washed it and put it in the dryer–ooops! Scotch tape melts. MaybeI can send it to you next time?

  9. Awesome job! They look fantastic!

    I remember in high school all my 5’2″ friends would complain about having to get their jeans hemmed, and I was all like “ya? well at least you don’t have to wear flood pants!” ’cause when I was in high school, the longest inseam I could get an woman’s jeans was a 31″…a 32″ if I was really lucky!
