I was really nervous to get into alterations but this was helpful and made me feel a bit more capable. Thanks!

I'm so happy to hear it was helpful.

I've only been sewing a few years, and don't normally alter stuff. But I need to shorten 3 pairs of my pants... The jeans patch was a good technique, as was the pants hemming. But the finished dress hem was uneven. For a neat hem all around, I would have measured the seam allowance instead of 'eye balling' it and cutting it freehand.

Very well done video. Now I feel like I can hem all of my clothes!

May add details of what kind of stitch and thread and how to ensure it's secure.. you just basically say cut and sew!

I apologize about that. I've added links to the written versions of these DIYS with more photos where the stitching is more visible as well as more explanation per each step. I used basic quilting thread. To secure my stitch I simply used the reverse lever for 2 seconds and I did a straight stitch on all the hems.

keep it up with new postings, love the crash course

I have a question, when shortening a dress, skirt or pants, should I leave it a little longer in the back? Because of my bum, wouldn’t it raise the fabric up a little compared to my front?

Where did you buy that chalk?

why did my teacher make me watch this for class like huh

how do you go all the way around on pants? that probably sounds like a silly question

Thank you for your videos. Btw - you have the most beautiful eyes. Are they contacts or natural?? Either way, stunning. ☺️

How hard is it to take in pants. I have lost 104 pounds so far. Have behemoths with price tags still on them

@diylilyardor3435

It depends on which type of pants. If it jeans it's a little harder then dress pants. It takes about 30-40 minutes to do jeans and 15 minutes to do dress pants. If you know how to do it. It would be hard to explain over a message this is something I would have to do a video on.

Hi beautiful girl beautiful your tips I am tailor master from Pakistan

It is not it! You have to use special needles for that knit fabric!!!

sorry but your stiches look way worse than the original and not straight. How to fix that?
