My husband is about 5'7" so most pants have to be shortened. And he usually wants the legs abit narrower. I found a great way to make narrow legs and take up some of the hips (which men don't have!). I take the pants to the serger and do a 4-thread serging stitch from the bottom of the inside seam almost all the way to the crotch and then make a half-circle and turn around and stitch back down the other leg to the bottom. Then I turn them up and let him try them on before hemming. Jeans with a natural inside seam work great, and he loves them. My only other sewing for him is to let out the waist on some pants he has almost outgrown!!! Now back to quilting!!!
