I think this is the best technique I've seen on line, for keeping the original hem in jeans! This gentleman here really knows his craft and manages to teach it to us in a perfectly clear and precise way. Thank you sir!
This is the best tutorial of all tutorials for original hem! I've saved hundreds of dollars by hemming my son's jeans the last 3 years after watching the first video. I look forward to more tutorials!
+Hoopshots Basketball Thank you and so glad to hear the tutorial is helpful! Will be working on more tutorials soon. Be sure to join the free sewing education community at www.sewingeducationcenter.com, also on facebook.com/sewingeducationcenter. Appreciate the comment!
This is by far the best method I have seen to keep the original hem. Brilliant ! Thank you for sharing this with the world - how kind and nice is that !!!!! Much appreciated.
I've always done it this way for my kids' jeans, but never thought of hiding the extra fabric under the old seam. I simply sergered is as best I could or just leave it uncut if it's not too long, so I can open it back up when kids grow taller. This is an excellent idea and well demonstrated. Thank you very much, Sir. Will definitely be useful!
GENIUS! Someone once did this for me at a tailor, without even asking me if that's what I wanted, i just said "original hem", my mind was absolutely blown. I honestly have been trying to do this at home, I posted on sewing forums, no one knew what I was talking about, and here is the technique. I was so close to figuring it out on my own but this is an easier technique. I use vice clamps on the thick parts because I live in an apartment and don't want to be banging on stuff like a crazy person. This short person thanks you very much, lol.
This is the cleanest and most professional looking method. Other videos on UA-cam try to cut corners and you can see the resulting imperfections. This man does it the right way.
You are my favorite tailor to watch and learn from! I understand you perfectly and I appreciate your visual techniques so much.... very good teacher! Thank you for this video!
Thank you Sir for this wonderful tutorial! I have always wanted to keep the original hem when taking jeans up. I used to cut away the original hem and then sew it back once the jeans were cut to the desired length. This is an amazing technique and thank you for taking your time to share it with us.
I can't put 20 thousand likes. Only one. But I'm ready to say thank you twenty thousand times)). May God grant you health, friend, and long life. I watched so many videos, this method is the best. Super!!!
I like all of your alterations and repairs because they are always very neat. Nothing is sloppy or shoddy looking like some so called experts I’ve seen online. Thank you sir!
Just used this method for the first time using a 95 year old Singer 99k that belonged to my father! (he worked for Singer for a while). Worked perfectly and looks great. And yes, cutting and hammering the folded hems worked fine!
Best jean hem video EVER EVER EVER!!!!! Thank you for this education. This is one of those videos that, like me, a seamstress, says, 'WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF THAT!!!
Wow, thank you so much! Years ago I bought a used sewing machine just so I could hem my pants when needed. I use the sewing machine more than any of my other tools. I wondered how to achieve an original appearance when hemming jeans. Your tutorial answered the question beautifully. Thank you, again!
Thank you so much Hyi. I wish all your teaching video clips posted on your Facebook can be also shown on UA-cam too so that it would be easier for us to watch them. Thank you again for sharing your experience.
This is the best method I have seen yet, very clever and time saving. No unnecessary fluff and the results are factory quality (which is great for Jeans) Let's face it, no one wants a pair of jeans that looks like their mom made them. lol. I have done a lot of sewing and for my jeans I'll be using this method from now on. I would also like to say that when I have a lot of stiches to remove on heavy fabric I just pull the folds apart until I can see the inside of the stiches and CAREFULLY alternate, cutting some of them with a razor blade then pulling as much thread out as I can at a time. (That's an Upholstery trick). That is the same type of machine my mother taught me to sew on.
A true magician! Beautiful work and technique! Thank you for imparting your knowledge upon those of us who have no clue how to make the hem look original. I have gone to many tailors and the best ones have a similar result while others tell me they don’t do original hems! Yours is the best! Thanks again!
Thank you for this tutorial! I have an oversized denim jacket and I hope I can make it smaller without losing the original hems, but you explain this so well and it looks easy because I can see you really know what to do!
Such an excellent tutorial. Other instructors that I have seen for this kind of hem has the original gold thread taken out before sewing the original hem on to the pant leg. I think it makes so much more sense to do it the way you are showing - after the hem is sewn. Makes the concept of tucking seam allowance inside much clearer.
I've been doing this technique forever because I'm short but never took the original seam out to cover the cut hem and they always rolled and frayed after washing. I don't know if you'll see this comment because this video is older but I have to tell you this is a game changer for me. You are absolutely a genius. Thank you.
Hello! Yes, I do see the comments. Sometimes, it takes me a little time to reply due to my schedule. Thank you for your comment, I'm so glad this was helpful!
Thank you for sharing your jeans hemming technique. Hemming jeans is a very hard thing to do and a person can certainly break machine needles! Thank you again. I never thought of using a hammer at my sewing machine!
I was going to take my pants to the cleaners to get hemmed. But after watching your tutorial you've given me inspiration to give it a try on my own. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us all!! You're the best😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄👍👍
You are incredible sir, in such minute details you hv added new dimension to my sewing skill... I also hammer it n tie thread from behind n that I hv never ever seen before ... only you .... I hv seen so many UA-cam videos on sewing but nothing like yours .... flying kisses to u sir
You are amazing, I might attempt this some day, I'm 4'11" so most jeans are far too long on me but I've been too scared to try and hem them myself! Mostly since most jeans have designed hens!
It's not hard I bought a singer basic sewing machine did some practice on older jeans then did all my expensive $ 200-300$ jeans you can always pull the stitch. You will never know if you can do it or not if you don't try it's ok to fail couple times how we learn this technique shown is a little more custom with the second step I'm going to be giving it a try but on my other jeans I stopped after the first step and ironed them flat which many videos show. Cheers
You had me at "We need any kind of hammer"...Then I realized we were not going to use the hammer to bash the machine. Glad I waited and watched the whole video! LOL Thanks! EXCELLENT job. I learned a LOT!
@@Sewingeducationcenter😁😄😄🤣 what a master class!!!! I watched other videos and was not convinced. Today i will apply my new knowledge to that jean that's been waiting for months!! No excuses now. Thank you
I can tell you are very good at what you do. Great attention to detail. Those are both nice sewing machines too. Good job- I must look at some more of your videos. Thanks!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I saw a similar video on UA-cam. But a sewer on that video didn't remove the original brown seam. She just sewed along the original hem. ua-cam.com/video/mdkmuIrebRY/v-deo.html
Mr. Lim, thank you very much for making this video! It has been very helpful. I have one happy mother now. :D I am really looking forward for more videos. :)
Much better job of explaining the details! Thanks for taking the time to update this technique. I referred many people to your previous version and it created many questions, which you've addressed in this version.
There are a few ways to achieve the original hem on your Jeans , they all work well . This method is visually more appealing than others , it's also almost impossible to see . I think there are more men sewing now, which is cool . Thank you for the video, it's very helpful
Great tutorial thanks for the updated version. i will buy a new pair of jeans just to try this out. thank you. i dont have the sewing foot like yours, but i do have a foot to sew zips which looks like yours doubled(mirror image), I am sure that should work as well. Should you know which sewing foot i am talking off, you may like to advise your viewers- just a thought. thanks once gain
+Satsad satsad Wonderful! If you don't have a one-sided sewing foot for the first part of the hem process (1:09), a regular-standard sewing foot should work fine.
This tutorial was amazing....such great quality, and now I have a clear understanding of how to hem a pair of Jeans the correct way. Thank you so much. You have a new subscriber, now I am going to see if there is a video on hemming dress pants. :)
+markay vintageformeforever Thank you! Ahh, good question (or suggestion), hemming dress pants is a different technique. I may do a future tutorial on that if there's interest.
Thank you, I sure would love it if you would make a video on hemming mens skinny dress slacks, made of cotton. And a video on hemming jogging pants that have a twin needle seam at the bottom. I sure wish I had your knowledge of sewing.
+Roberto Tapia Thank you! I posted this suggestion the facebook.com/sewingeducationcenter page for members to vote on. If it gets enough likes I will make it the next tutorial. Be sure to add your like as well. Thank you Roberto for subscribing!

Hi I agree with many viewers that it is the best method so far. In all videos not one (videos I saw) did the last step. Only from this video I subscribed. Happy to find your channel.Thank you so much. My best wishes.
I learned this from my mom who was a seamstress. This technique gives everything a professional look to anything that you alter. Thank you sir for sharing your knowledge.
Macy Flowers thank you so much! I appreciate the comment. I hope the tutorials are helpful. Also check out the newest video I posted last week on making your own face mask. Stay safe!
Thank you Mr Hyi Lim this is the best video on Magic Hem around. I have come back to this video many times. please make more sewing videos. God bless you.
Hi Mr. Hyi! Thank you for the time of making this video, it's the best technique I've been watching in UA-cam (and I've seen dozens of videos with similar techniques). Now I can buy my right waist size and it won't matter the length; after a while, many designers brands put on sale those long sleeves jeans because the average buyer doesn't want to deal with seamstresses (extra co$t) at the dry cleaners. Once again, thank you very much for your generosity of teaching. Peace, Love and Light 🙏🏼
That's great to hear! You don't have to get a super fancy or expensive machine to start. There are many reasonably priced ones that are really good. I do recommend looking at ones that can handle heavier fabrics if you plan to do hemming on jeans.
Patricia Duvall it depends on what kind of sewing you’d like to do and your budget. I use an industrial machine but for what I teach it isn’t necessary. If you do a lot of Jean alterations look for a machine that can handle heavy denim and fabrics. Avoid the light or portable machines.
Excellent results. I have to confess, my machine is a walking foot Consew that had no problem going through the many layers of side seams. Your video is clear and in focus. I appreciate having NO MUSIC, so Thank You, Hyi. You are a master.
Thank you for teaching me a new way to hem my jeans. So far this is the easiest way to hem jeans that I have seen so far. I will use it often I am sure of that.
The best sewing tutorial I've seen online -- maybe the best tutorial of any kind! There is no wasted time with useless chit-chat. Each step is explained thoroughly and the demonstration is easy to follow. Thank you!
This is the master class in hemming jeans. Just the absolute best way. Thank you.
Years later and this is still the best technique on how to keep the original hem. Thank you, sir!

This a great technique, wish I'd known this 30 years ago. Thank you for this helpful video.
Wonderful! Better now than never right?
Thank you Mr Hyi Lim this is the best video on Magic Hem around. I have come back to this video many times. please make more sewing videos. God bless you.
This reaIIy is “magic” seam. Thank you.
Hi Mr. Hyi! Thank you for the time of making this video, it's the best technique I've been watching in UA-cam (and I've seen dozens of videos with similar techniques). Now I can buy my right waist size and it won't matter the length; after a while, many designers brands put on sale those long sleeves jeans because the average buyer doesn't want to deal with seamstresses (extra co$t) at the dry cleaners.
Once again, thank you very much for your generosity of teaching.
Peace, Love and Light 🙏🏼
Thank you, Oscar! Appreciate the comment and glad this was helpful. I will pass on your thanks to Hyi.
I don't have a machine but am interested in learning how to once I do get one. :)
That's great to hear! You don't have to get a super fancy or expensive machine to start. There are many reasonably priced ones that are really good. I do recommend looking at ones that can handle heavier fabrics if you plan to do hemming on jeans.
Buy a vintage machine, pre 1970 if you want it to sew heavy stuff. Most new machines can't handle it.
@@patg8932 Good advice!
I would love to know what you recommend. I am an average sewer but would be hemming jeans as part of my sewing.@@Sewingeducationcenter
Patricia Duvall it depends on what kind of sewing you’d like to do and your budget. I use an industrial machine but for what I teach it isn’t necessary. If you do a lot of Jean alterations look for a machine that can handle heavy denim and fabrics. Avoid the light or portable machines.
Excellent results. I have to confess, my machine is a walking foot Consew that had no problem going through the many layers of side seams. Your video is clear and in focus. I appreciate having NO MUSIC, so Thank You, Hyi. You are a master.
Wonderful to hear! So glad this was helpful! Keep it up!
Great tutorial! Thank you for the wonderful instruction!
Wonderful, thank you!
Thank you for teaching me a new way to hem my jeans. So far this is the easiest way to hem jeans that I have seen so far. I will use it often I am sure of that.
Thanks a lot, you are great teacher.
Thank you very much for the kind words!
Thank you making this video it is best hemming video I have seen so far. The hammering part is very helpful. Please make more videos.

+kmrmike Wonderful! After the feedback from version 1, I wanted to make this one w/ more detail and sharper picture quality.
The best sewing tutorial I've seen online -- maybe the best tutorial of any kind! There is no wasted time with useless chit-chat. Each step is explained thoroughly and the demonstration is easy to follow. Thank you!
