    Great video. Now, I won't feel quite as bad if my jeans "shrink" in the wash. I've got a fun alternative. You look great on the streets of NYC. Hope your developing project moves along better and faster than you can imagine.

    You need a seam jumper to sew over the bulky fabric - I’ve seen sewers use a button before/behind the presser foot as well. Awesome jeans project! 🤩

    Thank you so much for this wonderful tutorial! I've recently found your channel and everything I've seen so far is so creative, fashionable, and practical. I have always wanted to try something like this with a black lace over a bright single color fabric. Adding the snap closures in like I saw in one of the clips would be really useful for me too. Thanks again!

    SO EXCELLENT - both your ideas and your personality !!!! Love this ! exactly as is - I do have a pair that "shrunk" only in the top belly area - and I don't want to mess with the legs because it has great fabric paint on it - so a tutorial on just doing the top part that will be covered even with a shirt would be cool. Shout out to your sister! Love her personality too.

    I really liked this upcyle to the jeans. If I was to do this, I might overlay lace into the new section of the jeans - or just use a nice lace without a backing fabric if I felt like showing off my legs. I like the patches you've done, and the embroidery idea would look fabulous as well. Another idea I've just had, is that if the jeans you are using for the panel are too short, cut them at various points and include sections in there to lengthen those panels until they are long enough - it would be even more fun if the addition in that panel was a different colour from either trousers you were using for the original and the first patch.

    A few suggestions. You could do a zigzag around the cut outs or hand embroidery. When you want something to ease in put the longer piece on the bottom. The feed dog will draw it in for you. BUT awesome job.

    SO cute!!! I am curious how you would upsize professional trousers? I have a whole bunch that my wardrobe shrunk and if I could add sparkly tassels down the sides of everything I own, I absolutely would! Unfortunately I work in an industry where I need to blend in to the background, so I am trying to find that balance of being professional while still showing my personality. If anyone has suggestions on what to do with lighter, silkier fabric that is still work appropriate, I'd love to hear them!

    • @BlueprintDIY
      @BlueprintDIY  Рік тому

      This can be done on work pants. It’s all about what you choose to add as the panel. Find another similar fabric that compliments the pants. I did stripes here, but you can keep it simple.

  • @beepbopboop3221

    About the seam at the top, next time, take out the seam to reduce bulk and then put the waistband back on. It's extra but you won't break any denim needles.
