my jaw DROPPED when you put the stitches in the same direction as the WEAVE of the denim. That's such a skillful detail, thank you so much for sharing your expertise with us! beautiful mend :)
Thanks 🥰 Glad you like it!
Thanks for the clear instructions, I don't understand why some people want to make it seem so complicated! 🙄
Pppp p0 0pp
I believe it's so we can't think for ourselves and need to rely on the sinister system to look after us.
I have been sewing for 60 years, but learned new tricks today. Thank you!
😊😊😊
I'm not a tailor and this is how i've been sewing the hems of my jeans in the past 3 years. Glad to know I was doing it the right way ☺️
You should have your own tv show-you’re the funniest crafter ever!
Thanks so much! You are so kind 💕
Yep! Totally agree !! Lol . She is spunky, energetic, great personality and wow …so knowledgeable.
Always enjoy watching her in action. I would never be able to do what she does to adjust , change and give your current wardrobe a new “life “ . I just don’t have the confidence yet with adjusting clothes. But but but , I will try the smaller projects on inexpensive clothes to build some competency over time.
Amazing! First time hemming up jeans. I usually take them to the tailors but I didn’t have time to wait, so gave it a go and I can’t believe I did it! Thank you for the easy peasy instructions! If I have time, I’ll definitely be doing the hems myself ☺️
Where have you been all my life!? Thank you, Miss Downtown Tailoring!
Thanks 😊
I would have gotten straight As in school if my teachers were as clear and easy to understand as you! Thank you very much for the great video. I can definitely tell you know your stuff and are very passionate about it.
Thank you for being a part of our community and for leaving such a positive comment! Your support keeps me motivated to continue creating content 😊
This come just in time for me! A coworker asked me to hem her jeans. Can't wait to try your method!
Perfect! Yes please, more handsewing tips.
Thank you , I get lost in people over complicating things and loose interest.
You have a wonderful way of thoroughly explaining while not to make as dry as burnt toast.
After watching your video I’m going to give it a go .
Thank you again , appreciate
Instructions were very clear 😂. Thank goodness 😊
Thank you, in the time you did the whole hem I got three stitches done but Im on my way to finally wearing these jeans.!
You got this! 🥰
This is such a practical video! Full of tips!
Thank you 🥰
Thank you so much for your easy to follow direction! My jeans are hemmed and they look just like they did before I hemmed them! You are an excellent teacher.
Thanks so much! I’m glad to hear 🥰
Great tutorial and very helpful
Thank you for the clear, easy instructions. Some jeans colors I want don't come in a short length, now I can buy them and hem them up myself without losing the look of the original stitching.
Me too!
Omg thank you for that last step!! The z helps so much
Very creative and I agree with others. You give great instructions!
Thank you! Cheers!
Your instructions are perfect!

Thank you for making this video to show us how to shorten jeans by hand. Excellent advice and instructions. ❤❤❤😊
Thanks 😊
Completely awesome. I have a new pair of jeans that need to be hemmed up, love this hack! Can’t wait to get on this tomorrow!
You got this! 🥰🥰🥰
That was the best video and audio instruction for hemming jeans that I’ve ever seen. I do have a sewing machine, and now that I have seen how it works by hand, it will be easier to do by machine. I will do the first part by machine and the second part by hand.
I love your clear, detailed explanation and video and have subscribed to you. Thanks for this 😁
This was very helpful, Thanks for posting.

Glad it was helpful!
Perfection!! I'm going to use this on 2 new pairs of jeans that just need a little hem adjustment. I was going to do it by the machine, but I hate having to get it out, find thread, wind the bobbin with that color, etc.! This is exactly what I needed to see! Thank you!!!
My pleasure 🥰 Thanks for watching 🥰
Brilliant tutorial, worked a treat!
Great to hear! 🥰
Perfect timing - I have several pairs of my husband's jeans to hem!

Thanks for this! Yes to shorten Jeans or create shorts from an old pair. Never learned to use a sewing machine but willing to sew by hand for occasional work. FYI: the shiny metal thing is a "thimble"- used to protect your fingers/thumbs from getting pricked!
🥰🥰🥰
Nice and very helpful. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for watching! 🥰🥰🥰
Auntie, take all my money. You just taught me some very valuable life skills

Thanks for this tip! I hate losing that original jeans hem - love this tip!
Glad you liked it! 🥰
@@DowntownTailoring I'm working on two pairs of flared jeans so it's a wide leg hem...It's tedious but I'm looking forward to the results! Thanks again!
@@denisen.wagstaff7938 keep in mind that this method might not work for flare jeans if you need to shorten them too much as the original hem might be to wide to be placed on the new position. Cheers
@@DowntownTailoring Yes, I was concerned about that but I only needed to take up 1/2" and I think they came out really well! It took me all day for two pairs but I did them - thanks to your great instructions and video! Thanks again!!
OMG...PURE GENIUS !!! You Rock 👍👍
🥰🥰🥰
This tip saved me. I have been needing to hem some jeans, but we moved and I still don't have a place to sew yet!
I'm so glad ☺ Happy hand sewing!
I set up my sewing machine on my dining room table until I had a sewing room
@@undergrace_6.14 so did I... when i had a table.

I have a video request - since we are going into the holiday season, I would love to see you do an alteration on sequin or beaded material. How do you secure it so it doesn’t all unravel when you cut? What do you do when you take it to the machine so it doesn’t break the needle or get stuck in the feed dogs? How do you manage the bulk in a hem or seam? Beads and sequins are so intimidating that so far I haven’t tried.
Yes. But I'm afraid I won't be able to have it on time as I need to record it and edit it. Anyways, I did record a short that I can post with one trick or two at the end of this week. Stay tuned 😉
OMG. I like this. This will save me money -not having to take my jeans to the drycleaners and spend more than what I paid for the Jeans LOL!
Thank you so much, going to do this tomorrow!
Have fun! 🥰
