If you've wanted to get into sewing or maybe start doing some alterations yourself, this is your sign to try!! I'm giving you all the good vibes + good luck! YOU'VE GOT THIS 💖
Also! Get excited bc I have so many more sewing videos aaaand so much fun cozy fall content coming soon! See you soon 🎃🍂
Yay! I got a sewing machine last month and I’ve been having so much fun!
❤The third blue top that you did isn't actually a dress but kind of a tunic that is worn by Indian women and is called a KURTA. We pair these with some trousers , or even skirts.
And the design isn't really vintage but a machine copy of one of India's oldest embroidery techniques known as "chikan Kari"
You can google "kurta" "chikan Kari" and you'll know.
So in love with all your videos!!
an easier way to keep a hem is to just fold the garment up to where you want it to be(inside folding to out), sew around the end of the hem, then cut out the fold in the middle. Takes less cutting and does the exact same thing!
And you can see the exact length before you do anything irreversible!
Another way to handle embroidery is to place a different embroidered patch over the logo. I got some cutesy animal patches and covered the name of an old workplace so I could continue wearing my old scrubs at new jobs. This was easier than picking out embroidery and many times, the fabric can be damaged or faded around a heavily embroidered logo so this works for those situations as well.
I learned on UA-cam that seamripping a straight seam works better if you insert the shorter and less pointy of the two needles - you can just slide trough the seam.
Sewing is definitely a skill that more people should know to reduce waste and not support fast fashion ♻️🍄✨✨✨✨
OMG i recently did a thrift flip myself, i kinda messed up but it’s still wearable, i read somewhere that perfection is the enemy of progress, so i’ll keep on practicing it doesn’t have to be perfect. Your thrift flips were amazing and Luna in the back, the cherry on top.
Now this a few thrift flip! No cropping it and it’s done videos. 💕
I am so early and still watching the video. But just saw Luna baby kneading in the background and could NOT NOT comment! 😭😭😭😻😻😻
wow, the vintage print dress is amazing, I wish I had something similar, the earthy rich colors are just my colors :) love it
That blue top looks like an Indian kurtha top because of the slits and pattern! You did a great job making it into a two piece, going to have to try that!
Yup that's a machine embroidered chikankari kurta. Chikankari is a specific type of embroidery originated in Lucknow, India. This embroidery even have a Geographical Indications tag.
That's exactly what I was thinking!
LOVE it. Feeling so inspired. Just bought a sewing machine, but I'm super intimidated. No idea how to use it yet.
I'm so excited to see sewing content from you!!
Me too!! I just posted a Short of a dress I made with $5 thrifted fabric :)
Seamripping tip: of you find yourself getting annoyed with it, stop, and come back later. When I get annoyed, I get impatient, and I start cutting through the fabric.
If you're cutting through thick fabrics with any frequency, you should also consider investing in a 60 mm rotary cutter. I got a nice ergonomic Olfa like 50% in a closing sale, and it's amazing for things like double layers of fleece. Also, always measure twice, cut once.
I have a fleece jacket that I want to remove the embroidery from, but wasn't sure how that would go, so thank you!
Cutting the hem and joining again is genius. I will use this on soooo many garments. Subscribed for the genius ideas.
Lol your sewing humor is amazing
Hahahahaha thank you so much
The blue two piece is so cute! They all look great, I just love the vision you had for that. Great job
This is a cool video. I think you can show people how to patch over the embroidery on the first one but I love the second one the most. All you needed was a quilting ruler (long ruler) and you could have cut that straight. Thanks for showing us.
Ughh your personality and sewing skills ❤️❤️🫶🏽 please make more! I know this was a year ago but still. You inspired me to make a video like this 🎉🎉
Loved the thrift flip! You look beautiful in everything ❤️
loved this 💗💕 your cat in the background of the video was so cute🥰
Great video! My favourite is the two-piece set! 🇨🇦
Beautiful job Jess!
You are really good at this!🤩
Love your clothes transformation so much my fashion icon Jess!!! ❤️❤️
That maxi is gorgeous!
I was debating whether to subscribe or not and as soon as you mentioned the playlist I subscribed 😅
Love your video and all your upcycled clothing. Especially the slip dress. Also like how you moved the Nike tag that was on the front to the back. So smart. You make it look so easy. Very helpful video. I subscribed. Thanks for your video, I think I will be binge watching your videos this week.
Great video, Jess! My pile of projects/alterations/thrift flips has gotten kinda stagnant, so this video should spur me on to get going and start wearing and enjoying the stuff! Thanks for tipping me off to the rotary cutter, went straight to Amazon to order it, now I can’t wait to try it out❣️ 🙂
You'll need a self-healing mat and a clear quilting ruler. Please watch some videos about rotary cutters - this was an example of very dangerous technique. Like mandolins in the kitchen, rotary cutters must be respected - very useful but very dangerous if not handled correctly.
I love altering clothes! Its fun + relaxing too! And I hate small armholes too!
Everything turned out lovely, but my favorite is the brown dress.
Your recreates are fun! I love kitty cat, tho. That's some cute floof!
I think that blue thing is indian kurta (indian traditional top) :)
Love these! Quick Q: how did you adjust the sides to be tighter? Did you need to cut more fabric off?
that's a kurti for sure😂 (in Pakistan/India/Bangladesh girls wear them with salwar and dupatta)
Picking up ideas 💡
Nice job!
Thank you Cecilia! 🧡
Have made too big clothes smaller to my XS loads of times! 😊😊😊
Where did you get your singer?
Cute ❤️
for the sweatshirt (#2) you could have just took a chunk out of the middle and kept the bottom piece intact with the patch and bottom as-is. idk if that makes sense, but you can try that next time! :)
cool flips!
If she did this she would have a sewing line going directly through the middle of the piece
Yeah you could, but her way is better, as the seamline is hidden right next to the hem, rather than being visible in the middle somewhere.
All winners!
What happened to the skirt hem?
ok but all of my clothes are like really ugly and idk what to do. Like seriously my mom bought me most of it when i was like twelve (I stopped growing early so i cant just say they dont fit anymore) and also im broke. so basically my closet looks like a 2014 dream in the worst way possible. any tips?
thrift stores!
I love these could you maby do some without seeing machine
First two modifications. Wish to of seen the final result
I like how you're afraid of stabbing yourself when you are taking the sweatshirt off while I personally am more worried about the pin falling out. I hate having to pin twice. That's the only thing in sewing that irritates me.
Consider using safety pins.
fyi: Rotary cutters are extremely SHARP! They will go through the skin on your fingertips to the bone so fast you will hardly know what has happened until copious amounts of blood are flowing. No reason to ask me why I know this is there? Wear a protective glove on the hand not holding the cutter which are sold in the quilting section of your craft store or online. Also, make sure to buy a rotary cutter that closes automatically. it's worth the extra few dollars you're spending if you accidently knock it off the table and it bounces off your foot.
More sewing videos please! This gets me so inspired 🧵 🪡
I thought this was Vanessa hudgens
