I know that you can use old pants, and sew extra fabric on to turn them into bell bottoms/flare leg pants... Does anyone know where I can find a tutorial online on how to do this? If you can find one with step-by-step instructions and pictures I would be very grateful!
 
Okay I found the perfect place and it has step by step colored pictures. http://www.bigflares.com/howto.htm

You'll Need:

thread
a strong needle
pants
extra cloth for the gores
pins
scissors
seam ripper (optional, but recomended)
something to measure with
chalk


I found another site: http://www.wikihow.com/Cut-Jeans-to-Make-a-Wider-Leg

For these bell bottom alteration you will need:

Scissors
Thread to match the weight and color of the heaviest fabric
Needle or sewing machine
Fabric for gusset
Iron
Straight pins
