You must have been working on those jeans at a laundry store judging by the setup you have there and I love the way you took those jeans in and got it all correct. I worked in a prison and we had inmates who operated the sewing machines we had and it was a Juki and and older Singer model and they was great machines. I am looking to buy a Singer for use at home as I can't afford a Juki for my personal use. I thank you so much for demonstrating how to do this work and may God Bless you, your family, and coworkers.

[@gypsygem9395]

I've always used one. When they are super sharp (and properly handled), they're less likely to damage the garment. I also have these little circular plastic gadgets with a blade, which hide the blade when not in use. I've forgotten the name of them. But sooo useful, and definitely better than a seam ripper!

I wish I had the heavy duty/all metal construction sewing machine that you have. My mother had one, a Singer. It was durable and easy to fix. These days we have sewing machines like Brother with plastic components that easily break down when the plastic parts go through a quick wear and tear. This is how the Cabal wants our society; disposable everything and therefore nothing lasts including sewing machines. We keep buying and buying to enrich the Cabal. Even Singer's quality has severely deteriorated. The name used to mean quality. Now it is just like all the others with plastic components. Use it to hem that thick pair of pants and it will likely grind the plastic components and render the sewing machine useless. Thank you very much for sharing your expertise. You also have this wonderful, old world, calm demeanor about you which makes it pleasant to listen to you.

[@DowntownTailoring]

[@patriciau6277]

Easy to do. I’ve altered more Levi’s then I can remember. Replacing zippers is a breeze. Just a suggestion, when you roll the hem in place tap the really thick spots with a hammer a few times. It really helps your machine handle it better.

Your videos are so educational and professional! If I can make a request, please take a low waist jeans and make them into a mid (or high) waist jeans. I see most people take shortcuts by cutting a hole in the crotch area and just sewing it without thinking of the details. I'd like to see how you seam rip, measure and cut out properly and then sewing it back together with the flat felt stitch. Thank you!

[@vannili100]

I add a piece the same kind of material at the crotch that we call it Gussets it help ,I do that on Police pants. Ripping anything you have to clean the loose thread and press it , I always make ( a pattern) cut a paper first on what ever I am doing to make sure. I hope this help.

[@vannili100]

You mean putting "gusset on the crotch? I do that for the police pants to highten the waistlines. For myself I add a piece of material 2 or 1 1/2 inches on the waist line then put back the waist band. I never did it yet to a customer's. I don't cut a hole on the crotch I rip it nicely. There are some good seam ripper that you can but it at Fabric Store.

[@catscompany735]

I have been doing my jean hems exactly like this for decades! It’s so easy & looks very professional! The part of taking in the waist does take quite a long while! This talented lady does this a lot so it’s faster for her plus you have to know where & how to find the right thread to pull so it comes out in one long piece otherwise if you cut it from the wrong side, it wont just “zip” out & then it takes a while! I don’t like cutting out the middle seam like is exampled here! I usually make 2 smaller darts from the waistband down past the pickets, then split them so there is no lump, press them & use Stop Fray! I would rather leave the natural line of the jean seams if I can figure a way to do it! But yes! It does take a while to do this waist alteration unless you are a professional as this nice young lady is! This is not what a beginner should do on an expensive pair of jeans! Save your old, & completely, worn out jeans to practice on! That’s what I use to do! Her work is very good!

[@DowntownTailoring]

Thank you so much for those flattering words. You could not be more correct! In my case, I prefer to do it in the middle seam because you can go a bit lower in order to to hug the hips better. I use darts when the hip:waist ratio is high and it works wonders because the fabric is more distributed across the back and not just the centre. However, everything you said it true. At some point in the future, we will upload a tutorial on how to take in the waist using darts so that the alteration can be a lot more accessible to everyone! :)

[@catscompany735]

Downtown Cobbler I’m going to give your method a try! If it can make the hips shape better...that’s great! I have to adjust the hips in my jeans or any trousers for that matter & I’m always looking for ways of a more flattering look! I can not wear women’s trousers or if I do I have to take in the hips from the knees up! I usually buy my jeans in the junior girls department so I don’t have as much work to do on them! As of right now, I have 4 pairs of jeans waiting to be altered & I’m going to give your method a try! Thank you again for the information! You have been very kind with your sharing! Happy Sewing!

[@DowntownTailoring]

@@catscompany735 Thank you! From what you've said, perhaps a more flattering style for your body type is low-rise jeans. Anyway, if you are going to try it out then check out our tutorial on it because we give all the details and instruction. Good luck, happy sewing! :)
