Instruction
1
Look closely at the jeans. Rate what style they're made, and imagine in detail what you want to do with them. For better visualization you can draw on trousers tailor's chalk, soap or a simple pencil.
2
Now select the one which suits you. Jeans can be cut without the backing of (then will appear through legs or tights), or use her as a tissue. The fabric should be soft, pleasant to the body to avoid irritation. It is desirable that it was thinner than jeans, and other colors will be visible in the slots).
3
The drawings can also be different. You can just cut in a straight line, or perform incisions in the form of rectangles. You can make stencils from paper. In this case, place them on the jeans and see how the composition looks, and then draw around it with chalk.
4
If no substrate is cut along the planned paths. Do not just take too large cuts. First, a little. Periodically double back to 1.5-2 m and see how it turns out. Can try on. Remember: make the cut, but less – is not. Slicers can be razlomalis, pull out the thread.
5
When working with the substrate should carve out at 1-1,5 cm more cut and process the slices from crumbling. Now strut inner or outer seam of the jeans (the one which does not have double topstitching). Pin the backing on the reverse side on the planned lines, baste and lay the engine line. Machine stitching can be done figured.
6
Now or just make an incision (or cut) inside the resulting contour on the denim, or you can do the following. Lay on the contour of an application for another few lines. Move inside the shape, and from every line of retreat of the same or different distance. Lines should be smooth. Now make slits between the lines.
Note
For cutting, use a strong, thick jeans, otherwise, after your efforts they can break at the first exit slit. Also they should not be stretch to fit you – otherwise your body will be squeezed, and jeans will meet the same fate.
Carefully cut jeans. Put the fabric under the cardboard or magazine that is not a pity not to accidentally spoil the other side of the jeans.

Useful advice
Slices can also be razlomalis or to achieve the effect of "time-worn" if you RUB the jeans with a pumice stone, nodachi or use a brick, depending on the fabric and weave.
Threads can be used or normal, or denim, or make a double thread of the same quality skeins. In the latter case, just insert two lines like seasoned one.
