5 Alteration Hacks That Will Make Your Sewing Life Easier!

[@amandapowell7593]

Girl. GIRL. I screamed at the pocket tip XD You just saved me an incredible amount of time! and I 100% will think of you every time I sew jeans. The button is clutch! These are the kind of things that separate the professionals from the rest of us faux-pros.

Great tips! The small gather is called an ease stitch. You make a piece of fabric slightly smaller to fit another piece by easing it with a very small gather 😊

[@DowntownTailoring]

Thanks 😊

[@dragonchild569]

agreed. it's often used to set in sleeves as well. you "ease" them into the armscye when the cap is very slightly larger or sometimes even when they are the same but the fabric is stiff or otherwise difficult to deal with. you don't actually see any gather but by doing the basting and small gather, it makes it much easier to fit the cap into the armscye.

[@kimvivian9916]

The term is Ease (ease stitch) is a tiny gathering amount spread out over a long distance that barely takes the fabric into a smaller run. Great tips here. You go girl!

[@xmobile.]

10:00 I'm unfamiliar with the spanish word, but I thought maybe she meant other words for the gathering, or the ruffles... in which case i was thinking to describe the gathered fabric as "puckered."

[@peggyp46]

I agree with the terms Ease. I wanted to check the comments before I commented about easing the fabric. Great information on this video!

I have a client I know is going to be the beneficiary of the pocket solution next week! This is something I'd never come across in over 60 years of sewing... fantastic!

@@DowntownTailoring Hi great tips, obviously coming from a lot of experience. I did not get the hem though (it was not part of the tutorial). The full circle silk skirt.

[@xyzsame4081]

@@DowntownTailoring One thing that I know from midi lenght wide skirts - if a woman has very wide hips and and / or an ample backside that can also influence the hem lenght (even with a material w/o stretch). Maybe not with a full skirt there should be enough material to smooth over the bdy parts ;) . I know the drill of having an appointment for fitting (when the garment is sewn from scratch) and then the seamstress would use her gadget to get the right length (a botte with chalk dust that is on a stativ and she puffed the line on).

[@lindasummer2343]

@@xyzsame4081 If I’m reading your comment correctly, I think the reason why she didn’t go into explaining the rolled hem is because she has explained it in a couple of other videos. It is worth looking on her channel for rolled hems for an explanation of how she does them.

[@theladyinblack3055]

@@xyzsame4081 OMG!! My Mum used one of those when I was little! I probably haven’t seen one in forty years though - I took a break from sewing between when I left home and when I had kids. Do they still make those? I’ve looked but can’t find one, Mum’s has disappeared (I think my sister may have thrown it out while we were getting ready to sell our parents’ home - Mum had dementia and they’d moved to a retirement home - as she doesn’t see…), and I’d love to be able to hem without calling on my BFF to help me get the hem right. With one of those, it would be simple enough that my husband could do it!

[@womensarmycorpsveteran2904]

Great advice for hemming jeans however there is a 2-sided tool called a “hump jumper”. I was taught the same as you regarding bias cut garments. The word you are looking for in the 3rd garment is “ease” you pull up the stitches to ease in the extra fabric just like set-in sleeves that are smooth without ruffling. I’m not trying to be a smart arse, I am a professional seamstress who has been sewing for 59 years😁 I think you’re doing a great job.

The process for correcting the pants front was very eye-opening (understanding the "U").

[@Yanan49]

Loved how you explained things in a straightforward but good-humoured way. I'm really into altering my clothes to get them to truly fit and flatter, but I'm only at the more basic stages of hemming garments and replacing linings. But the difference it makes has generated lots of requests from friends and family. The crotch trick is excellent, it shows how casual clothes can fit our non-model-perfect bodies so they really flatter. Never seen anything like it.

dear Lady, I was a seamstress once and sew everything, but even for me the knob trick is new, thank you! very helpful

[@rhondaholman9628]

Wished I had found you you when I did alterations. Had to figure all this stuff out on my own. Great job!

[@darleneelko1956]

The English Word: Ease stitch. Commonly used for easing a sleeve cap into the top of the arm opening. matching the center & side notches. You stitch on the sleeve top between notches on pattern, do gentle gathering. Then put in the seam. Remove the gathering tread. This releases the gather & looks normal. This same technique is what you applied to the neckline with beautiful results! My one question would be if you shortened the straps while you have the neckline open in the front? Love your showing the alterations easily... and the ripping out is important for you to get in & do the work more easily. Awesome! Excellent tips Miss Downtown Tailoring! Like other comments... I learn different ways for sewing, even after years of experience.

[@DowntownTailoring]

Thank you! I thought that this word only applied for sleeves and extra material at the sides for movement. But it totally makes sense after you hear it 😁 I indeed shortened the straps from the front. Cheers!

"Ease stitch" is on the neckline of the dress. It's when one edge is lightly gathered, then sewn to an edge that is flat. It doesn't result in puckering, since the clothing curves on the body. Set in sleeves use this stitch.
