  Step 1

  Start by cutting the jeans about 2/3 of the way up from the knees

• 

  Step 2

  They'll look like shorts

• 

  Step 3

  Unseam between the legs

• 

  Step 4

  Itll look like this

• 

  Step 5

  Keep unseaming up to this point

• 

  Step 6

  Fold seams so the 2 legs sit on top of each other like in the picture

• 

  Step 7

  Cut a square from one of the leftover legs

• 

  Step 8

  Square

• 

  Step 9

  Place underneath the front "triangle" of the skirt

• 

  Step 10

  Sew along the seams - I only had black thread, grey would have been a lot more suitable

• 

  Step 11

  Front of the skirt all sewed

  Step 12

  On the back unseam to about this point

• 

  Step 13

  Legs will sit on top of each other like so

  Tuck seams away and pin

• 

  Step 15

  And sew!

  Step 16

  Step 17

  If possible take another skirt and use a chalk to mark the desired length. Another option is to try the skirt on and mark the length required.

• 

  Step 18

  Cut to desired length

• 

  Step 19

  Tidy inside square by cutting around edge...

• 

  Step 20

  ...to look like this

• 

  Step 21

  I like to go over the edges of the seams with the sewing machine to make sure the skirt doesnt fall apart, but this is up to you.

  Step 22

  Yey! New skirt all finished
