DIY - Leather patched black jeans

Hey all,

This DIY was sewn by the great Dror Geva.

In order to make this DIY you'll need:

- A pair of black jeans.
- Leather.
- Two Zippers.

Instructions.
Step One:
 6 leather pieces of 2cm * half knee width

 2 YKK zippers 16cm

 2 leather pieces of 5cm * 17cm

 
Cut both pieces in the middle (1cm)

 Mark the center of the knee from both sides

Also mark 4cm up and 4cm down, and unpick the side seam
Take one piece of the leather stripes, locate it on the mark, and sew all around
Keep sewing the rest of the leather stripes on the jeans

One side is finished, now start the other side

Sew the side seam

It should look like this when step One is finished.
Step Two:
Unpick the hem (if you need to make the jeans shorter) and the side seam
 Sew the hem

Attach and sew the Zipper

Sew the leather piece on top of the zipper

Just like that

That's it!

Bon Appetit!!
