>since I'm short all of them were too long.
it doesnt take much to hem them. you can even get iron-fused tape and just go at it with an iron. its not a permanent fix, but at least you can wear it and decide if you want to properly get it hemmed, or donate it.
>more suited for a girl in her early 20s instead of her late 20s.
Do you like it? then its suited for you. imho. .
You can get hemming tape that doesn't require sewing - you just place it between the fabric and iron it, which melts the adhesive. Like this It's really nice if you don't/can't sew and just need to make a straight edge
Thanks, I found some felt my mother had from another project, and I think I agree that this is the ideal stuff. I had imagined felt to be more cottony and easily frayed, but it seems really stable.
Have you ever used this iron on hemming tape? http://www.amazon.com/IRON-ON-HEMMING-TAPE/dp/B005O9WU9Q
Seems like I might save myself a ton of time if that works reasonably well for this project.
What kind of altering? If it's just hemming, maybe you could use this stuff to get by in the meantime? http://www.amazon.com/IKEA-IRON-ON-HEMMING-TAPE/dp/B005O9WU9Q
You could try some of that Iron on hemming material to close the hole up.
You can buy iron-on hemming tape for situations like this, by the way. Just stick it on the tag and iron it down. It takes a little longer than cutting the tag off, but it helps you avoid sharp-edged tags and lets you continue to read the washing recommendations.
