  • If the length of the fabric cuff is
    smaller so that only one design can
    be used, mark the lengthwise and
    crosswise center of the fabric strip.

  • If the length of the fabric cuff can
    accommodate two designs, as in
    the featured sample, first determine
    the design placement by marking
    the lengthwise and crosswise center
    of the fabric strip with a water-
    soluble pen. Next, mark the seam al-
    lowances on each short side, in this
    case, ½ ". Finally, mark the halfway
    point between the centerline and
    each seam allowance (B). Remove
    the original centerline, as it will not
    be used in design placement.

  • Hoop the cut-away stabilizer and
    fabric, centering one centermark
    in the hoop. Rotate the design if
    needed, and stitch.

  • Remove the excess stabilizer and
    repeat to stitch a design on the
    second centermark. Repeat for the
    second cuff.


CONSTRUCT
Seam allowances are ½ " unless otherwise
noted.


  • If using interfacing, fuse it to each
    cuff wrong side following the
    manufacturer’s instructions.

  • With right sides together, stitch the
    cuff short ends together. Repeat for
    the lining pieces.

  • With right sides together, place an
    embroidered cuff to a lining piece,
    matching the seams and raw edges.
    Stitch the lower cuff edge only.

  • Turn the cuff right side out and
    press. Apply the trim(s) to the
    bottom edge of the cuff.

    • With right sides together, stitch the
      cuff to the jeans lower edge.

    • Press and add trims along the upper
      cuff edge and/or to the jeans.

    • Repeat to attach the remaining cuff
      to the remaining jeans leg.
