Thank you so much for this! I am turning a dress into two pieces and don't have a sewing machine, so this was really helpful.

Glad you liked it ! thank you for watching.

Thank you 👍I will be trying this tomorrow . I’m so tired of paying the Taylor and now I can do this .

[@MadeByApril]

You can do it!

[@charlottearena]

The material is still going to fray on the raw edge you have cut, how is this sustainable?

[@NathalieQuitsReality]

Thannk youuuuu, i really needed this video :))

[@MadeByApril]

You're welcome !

[@inquisitvem6723]

I have a polo shirt with hem. How would I be able to shorten that? Same way? Also how did your thread go from reddish color to white? Thx

[@валантёрнство]

Аналогичный вопрос с красной ниткой 🤔

[@jellyfishluva]

it was edited, there were two different shirts sewn with different thread

[@jeyr1961]

With red thread it'll be easily visible for viewers. So, two t-shirts are shown

[@juststartingover2735]

What keeps the cut edge from fraying?? After 1 washing you may have a mess? Looking for answers please. I may try this with an old shirt.

[@MadeByApril]

The double fold is the best option as raw edges that might fray are protected within hem.

@@MadeByApril ok thank you. Its worth trying😁

[@charlottearena]

@@MadeByApril But you didn't demonstrate that in this video, so you just contradicted your whole video.....

[@eyeOOsee]

Thank you! 👍😃💞

You are so welcome

How do you thread the needle for the back stitch, it looks like a single thread?

[@MadeByApril]

I used double thread.

[@DREY4400]

@@MadeByApril Thank you! 👍

[@rainymornings]

That's not going to keep it from fraying...

[@Christine84080]

Use pinking sheers to keep it from fraying

[@charlottearena]

@@Christine84080 Still going to fray when you wash it, that's why they invented the overlocker.

[@charlottearena]

That's what I thought, not a good solution

[@Laura_Rose111]

@@charlottearenawhat’s an overlocker? I need to shorten 3 tees and don’t want to ruin them. Thanks!

[@charlottearena]

@@Laura_Rose111 they are going to be ruined if you can't stop them from fraying.You are going to incur bulk at the seams anyway with your method.

[@kim.mo-mi]

is the shirt still stretchable after this?

[@MadeByApril]

It still does..but less than the original

[@Torontogal777]

Not very much stretch at all.

[@xynboo9485]

can you do this with an 100% cotten t-shirt?

[@MadeByApril]

Yes you can..
