I should read over before I post anything. Reads: zig-zag it, then attach the cut part to the pants'. I'm tired, can't type anymore...

Hemming Jeans,
If you want a great finish, cut the excess to about 1/2", serge it or zig-zag it the attach the cut part to the pants with a slip stich. I did that professionally and I charges $20 per pants. It's a great skill to have!
