This video feels so personal. As if I was sitting across her bench. Outstanding!

"Anything that I missed?" the master asks the apprentice. The apprentice only sees perfection in the masters instruction, to the point of being confused by the question in the first place. Then, the student understands the master is showing grace and humility by extending the question. Mastery without arrogance is a rare trait. Thank you for this wonderful instruction.

Thanks so much. This is by far the best video on yt on the topic. I'm going to dinner at the Magic Castle tonight. I found out they have a very strict dress code and right now I'm too fat to fit into any of my suits. You saved my night by helping me tailor a fancy velvet party suit for the dinner.

Agree, this is 9x better and more thorough than every other video I’ve watched thus far. Thanks!

You’re a very clear teacher

Amazing video! Cheers Shae. I altered some red velvet pants using this method. It was tricky with such delicate material, but it worked out well in the end!

Thanks to you, I successfully completed my very first suit pant alteration. 🎉

Great tutorial video! I began a home alteration business a few months ago and I’m so glad I found you! 😊 You give and show details in such a delightful way. Thank you.

I just found your channel and have been binge watching your videos. I love your explanations and your attention to detail. I can tell that sewing, tailoring, is a passion of yours. Also, you are just so darling!

Thank you. Excellent details, and you look so happy teaching

I had an idea of how it is done and after watching your video i have enough courage to get started with my 2 pants that need letting out. Will save about $50 altogether.

Do do beautiful work. My Grandfather was a Tailor & so I appreciate what goes into working with garments.

Best step by step plus problem solving . Thank you so much!!💙💙💙💙💙

This is so fantastic - you have such a great way of explaining what you are doing, using easy to understand words and even if it is technical you explain it as you do it. thankyou so much !

Amazing clear and Knowledgable instructions, thank you so much

So many excellent tips. Thank you so much!

Really helpful!

Thank you for the great instruction.

Your a great teacher

Got this done in like an hour never having done this before. Good tutorial. What I did though was leave all the original stitching in the waist and seat and sewed parallel to it tapering into the groin. Then i released all the original stitching. New pants so no color difference. Ironed out and you can't even tell.

Clever- make the old seam hold for you.

Wowww! Thank you, I'm about to try it on my partner old suit pants, if this works he will owe you a few hundred euros lol. Jokes aside, thank you for sharing, very good video :)

I like you working apron, thank you very much for this video, it is very helpful

Hello Host Like done👍 Thank you for sharing this Video; it is of help to me.New friend here sending full support.Again thank you🙏

Thank you so much. Can you recommend a good book to compliment your videos. One that is good for men's suit pants , etc. thanks again. : )

I've not had to let out a waistband before on a suit, nice instructions. Question though, I would've turned the whole garment inside out to do the work, is there a reason not to?

When the waist gets let out about an 1.5”, are pant pockets noticeably slanted?

What do you do if your dress pants don't have that extra material at the seams? Do you have a video on that? Thanks

How can you make pants bigger like a 38 waist to a 40 inch waist

How do you make a baby dress from a shirt?

Thank you so much! My son's dress pants also tore at the side pocket, seam open 1.5" fabric torn 1" parallel to seam toward back. Any advice? Again, many thanks

Boys really wear their clothing hard! If he’s young and growing, just buy a new pair of pants. Tears in this area, even when they’re repaired never stay so you can resew the seam but it’s just gonna bust again.

I recently had this done professionally. However, the fabric was terrible with showing old stitch holes. Any tips for getting rid of those old vertical stitch holes that parallel the new seam? Thanks!

Steaming the fabric often helps with this issue

Amazing how all videos have perfect examples. What happened when you don’t have any allowance to let out?

Time for new pants! People often ask me to just add a wedge of fabric to expand them, but I often refuse because the work looks shoddy so I don’t wanna put my name on it. It is of course possible to do I just don’t like the way it looks.

Pants from 38 to 40 invh waist how can it be done

You never really do! Intuition and good fittings!

Good explanation. Thanks. What is the smallest seam allowance you would use on pant seams?

@sewshowwithshae

I wouldn’t go less than 1/4 inch but 1/2 inch would be better!

does letting the seat out relieve the pull in the front above the crotch

A little but it definitely depends on the shape of the belly and the booty. I find that this alteration can help with pocket flaring on the sides though!
