wide to straight jeans

These jeans were a bit wide legged, so I decided to make them a bit narrower. Although skinny jeans are 'in', my calves are not skinny - an inheritance of my farm girl days. So, I have just made these straight legged.

I guess I could have gone smaller, but I didn't want to go too far. Instead of pinning the legs while wearing them inside out, I measured my calves and the hem of a comfortable pair of jeans I already own and used that for a guide.
