Sew Yoga Band on Pants

I had a pair of pants that were uncomfortable to wear. So I decided to add a yoga band to it! I learned this hack from Stephanie Farrel. Go and follow her. She's amazing and has tons of sewing projects. / farrellfocus

I so glad you didn’t mute the sound as I always wondered if those scissors were loud. Thank you

[@sewmartha]

@@ronekelly4733 hi 👋🏼 yes they can be loud if you have a sleeping baby nearby. But honestly, it’s not too bad at all.

[@FarrellFocus]

Oh my gosh! That turned out great! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@sewmartha]

Well a huge thanks to you! Imagine wearing uncomfortable pants to work!! Ugh. So glad this hack worked so well!

[@rikkilorena1873]

[@sewmartha]

Yes it really was easy!

❤❤❤❤❤ THANKS, that is just what I need to do‼️ You made it look so simple. 😊 Love the electric scissors! 😊

[@sewmartha]

I’m so glad I could be of some help. Let me know if you try it out!

I’m surprised the background conversation about someone getting fired was not edited from the video.

[@sewmartha]

I’m super new at making videos and didn’t know how or didn’t realize. Live and learn. Thanks for letting me know 😊

The electric scissors seemed to have no problem in the zipper area? 😮

[@sewmartha]

Yup! I love how they cut through anything

Is it possible to fold over the waistband of I make it long enough?😄also does this work the same with low rise leggings?😄I was also wondering if I could make the waistband with any fabric or only some?😄😄sorry for all the questions, I’m new to sewing😅😅this video was extremely helpful!😸😸😸😸

[@sewmartha]

You definitely can fold it over if you make it long enough. That would work out great. And yes, low rise would work too. Just measure how tall you want your rise to be. You can put them on and measure where you want them to be. You want to choose fabric that has good stretch and recovery. The recovery in your fabric is very important so that it doesn’t loose its shape as you’re wearing them through your the day. I love ponte. It makes the best waistband. I’m hoping my answers make sense. If not, let me know and I’ll try to make better sense of it happy sewing.
