How to Create a Chain Stitch Hem on Jeans - Coverstitch Machine Juki MCS1800

Miss Sew shows you how to replicate a chain stitched hem on jeans using your coverstitch machine (Juki MCS1800)
This technique can be used to add a chain stitch hem using topstitching thread on any garment including jeans.
The machine used in the video is a Juki MCS1800 Coverstitch Machine. This takes universal needles and can be used to stitch with a range of different thread and fabric types. Refer to your manual for more details.
Miss Sew is using topstitching thread in both the needle and the looper.

So glad I found you! Wanting to learn to cover stitch. So nice to see actual sewing in the round. So many tutorials show flat demo fabric.

Hi, I have a question. Which cheaper model of singer that can do chain stitching on jeans? I look forward to your answer. Thanks

[@WeeLM]

Great video thanks so much! Does the chain stitch have enough stretch to hem skinny jeans for example?

[@MihailoJankov]

Very informative, thank you! What is the sewing thread thickness, color and brand you used for this project? It really matches nicely the original.

[@MihailoJankov]

That was an unnecessary question right there, the answer was (as usual) just in front of my eyes. Anyway, used the same thread to hem my jeans but with the regular lock stitch. Looks pretty good but that coverstitch is just awesome. It really replicates nicely the original chain stitch hem.
