When sleeves are too long, remove stitches from the bottom wrist of both sleeves, making sure material is not damaged when you do that. Use a seam reaper and it will be much easier. Take out the cuffs but stop short of reaping the stitches just before you reach the buttons and button holes so as not to disturb these areas. Cut the sleeves to desired length and sew back the cuffs in place. You may want to hand baste stitch them first before using the machine.
The usual hesitation to do jeans alteration is due to the thichness of jeans material. The key is to use heavy duty needles and thicker threads especially made for jeans.
To shorten jeans, take one of your favorite jeans with the right length and measure the inseams from crotch down to the jeans’ bottom. Take this measurement and add a few inches for the hems. If the hem is ½ inch after stitching, then add an extra inch before cutting the jeans. Use ½ inch as first fold and another ½ inch for the 2nd fold.Stitch in place.
