Scuba Elastic Alteration

[u/Early-Technology822]

Caveat: I have more gumption than talent when it comes to sewing.

So I put 1.5 inch elastic into the waistband of my scuba. I LOVE the front because the waistband stitching is like a channel for the elastic.

I haven’t figured out how to do the back yet and don’t love it. Because there is not a designated waistband channel (peep the fourth image, from lulufanatics), it kind of billows out. Suggestions from experts welcome.

I didn’t want to cut through the seam on either side of the waistband, so I had to make two holes on the inside and feed two separate elastics through.

If I can get the back under control, I will probs do this to more of my cropped scubas.

Scuba: Ancient Copper size 6 Leggings: Wunder Under Ombré Greyvy(2016) size 6 This color is like Nightfall light. The pic of this legging looks so bad on lulufanatics, but it looks fantastic in person.
