Hand Sewing Tutorial (RIGHT HANDED): Hemming Stitch aka Felling

[@quesophobia]

Sadly the smaller creators are the ones doing yt right, no unessisary music, short intro, clear instructions! Great work and thank you for the amazing tutorial!

[@Janette_AJ]

Yep! Definitely subscribed for each of these qualities you mentioned. Super grateful that this kind of creator still exist.

[@peppersantiago7995]

The most amazing part of your video is the absence of music. I, like many other viewers of KZbin suffer from misophonia, and i find that your tutorial and information was spot on and unimpeded by the addition of unnecessary background music. Thank you.

[@sewncompany]

You’re welcome! I appreciate that feedback! I’ve been experimenting with the notion of the sound of stitching being the only “background” noise needed.

[@goodwifelucy5602]

Not just the absence of superfluous music but you do actually just get on and give the tutorial! I'm afraid that most North Americans witter and repeat irrelevant chatter, I usually find that it takes at least five minutes before the tutorial actually starts! 😂 So thank you for being clear, concise and useful 😁

Your patch repair instantly made me think of my Aunt Lizzie and the time she patched the crotch of my original Levis. She'd come down to the coast to stay for a week with my faminly and heard my mother telling me to throw my Levis away. I wanted to crop them to cut offs but mum objected to the holes. In swooped Aunt Lizzie who made two immaculate repairs - "He'll never wear them you know!" Well they were 6 years old then and a couple of years later on vacation with my soon to be wife I decided they'd served their time. She objected and so we cut a deep V in the back and sewed them together for her and then she wore them for another four years or so before they were consigned to a trunk. When our second daughter hit her mid teens she discovered them and suddenly they're "hers", fifteen years later still drags them out in the summertime (the woman is built like a besom broom!) So there you go, Aunt Lizzie's repair - still going strong after years.

[@sewncompany]

What a cool story!!! Thank you for sharing. And thanks Aunt Lizzie!!

Your stitching is lovely, even and neat. Your advice is spot on. - thank you 👍🏽🤗😷

[@sewncompany]

Thank you for the kind words! You are welcome! Happy sewing! 💗🪡

[@mslj4062]

This was so beautiful to watch. I love garments that have a hand stitch element to it. Thank you so much for the wonderful teaching. 🙏🏼☕😔😊

[@sewncompany]

I’m so glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for your kindness! 💗🧵🪡

[@yvonnej90]

I learned this stitch at school in home economic class years ago. I still remember how to do it.Nice to see you teaching it.

[@sewncompany]

Such a great skill to have! I want to keep passing these skills on.

[@laurapalka3685]

Love this!!! Hand sewing to me is probably the most stress-relieving activity that I can do. Looking forward to checking out the rest of your videos, thank you! ❤

[@sewncompany]

Wonderful! I agree, it’s really relaxing for me too.

[@jmolvera8337]

Great video, no music, clearly explained and very easy to understand, thank you.

[@SheOpines]

I’ve never sewn before and find this very handy. My RLeg was amputated and I need to cut and hem many pants to that I can access my prosthetic leg. I researched alteration and it’s SO expensive. I will look at your other videos for advice on jeans and stretch fabric. Thank you!

[@Karch.Dah-Veed]

We Lefties really appreciate when instructors acknowledge our existence. We are a small minority, about 1/10th of the general population, and struggle in a spatial world created for the Right Hand Dominant majority. Good stuff. Thanks.

[@carolinepodgornoff2552]

i’ve watched countless videos and you’re is the only one that worked for me thank u sm❤

[@sewncompany]

So glad! You’re welcome!

[@dontdoitdonnell4750]

I really appreciate your video. I was shown the art of sewing when i was little and this cleared up a lot of what i had been doing wrong recently.

[@alanw64]

I’m teaching myself how to sew, and I’ve been doing the exact thing you said about taking too much of a bite. This is very helpful! You make it look so easy!!

[@azrani2023]

Same here hahaha. Helpful right?

[@Demonyongkulot]

your tutorials is really easy to understand thank you 💕💕

[@sewncompany]

I’m so glad to know that!! Thank you!! Happy sewing!! 💗💗

[@alessioporto2668]

Thank you so much, I always find your videos very helpful. All your advice makes sense once one starts sewing :) Thank you for your music-less videos, for your soothing voice, for your inspiring motto and for the underlying philosophy.

[@pennybean6851]

Your videos are amazing! At the 21 second mark you mention that you use this technique when you are mending clothes. Would you mind making a video on hand patching / mending clothes?? I would love to see how to mend clothes neatly and by hand! (Not everyone has or needs a sewing machine. But, sooner or later, we all have clothes that need mending!) Thank you for making these videos!

[@doublet5247]

My partner gets holes in his back pocket from his tobacco can. I'd love to learn how to patch them so he doesn't have to use duct tape, lol!

[@smril3737]

I also liked it

[@lg9052]

Thank you for this video. I tried this just now to hem one of my husband's jeans, and it worked perfectly 😊

[@CayKunGD]

That's exactly what I need technique for my sewing for my skirt project from the school. I like it! - From PH☺️❤️🇵🇭

[@azrani2023]

Wow, this was such a nice, clear and informative video! Your attitude is laidback, friendly and thorough at the same time. Thank you for that! I will immediately change what I'm doing on my current project and try to do better by trying out this! 😄❤

[@bbrosser694]

Thanks!

[@Kitbats]

This was very helpful in hemming s cape for my figurine. Thank you 😊

[@bbrosser694]

A great big Super Thanks for this and every lesson!

[@nadia.lewis.]

Great tutorial! Thanks for making this. 🪡🧵💕🤓

[@happytofu5]

Thank you SO much. I always had weird wobbly lines on the nice side of the garment and they vanished as soon as I dipped the needle into the fold like you said.

[@janabeni]

Thank you so much! Finally, I can hem my skirttt

[@harmonyln7]

I'm right-handed and hold the needle in my right hand, but I prefer to sew from left to right.

[@nancyleiper9307]

😂me too.

[@morganbrooksfield1575]

So useful! Also, are different hemming techniques required for different materials?

[@jennaartsncraft]

Can you explain what you mean by right to left and left to right for right handers. I'm a little confused by that part. X

[@sewncompany]

Good question! I mean you sew from right to left if you are right handed. Which means you start on the right side of the hem and work to the left. If you are left handed you start on the left side of the hem and sew to the right side.

[@Thespiansewist]

Hand sewing velvet tutorial would be appreciated Thanks

[@hanavesela5884]

Hi, amazing video. I have a question about what color tread to use if my outer fabric is red and linning gold. Should I use red or gold tread. I dont want the stitches to be too visible from neiter side. What is correct historical thing to do please?

[@sewncompany]

Good question! What I have seen is *typically* (of course there are no absolutes) you match the thread to the outer fabric color.

[@dreamgirlsridevi]

Nice video

[@AFTAB-sw9ov4oz3x]

Thank

[@DalisoChawanangwaTembo]

I have tried but it is not working

[@simonecarvallhoartes2614]

Excelente.👍👍

[@vidyashreekiran2622]

Single thread or double thread??

[@sewncompany]

Single thread. It will be the length of your arm.

[@nurabd8815]

Does hand sewing suitable for silk fabric?

[@sewncompany]

Yes it can be- it depends on the weave. What kind of silk fabric and what do you want to make?

[@doctorzeenat495]

The sewing that you've already done in the starting of is also called hemming??? Please tell me

[@sewncompany]

Yes- felling is the more generally term for folding fabric over and stitching it down. But using that technique to do a hem is hemming. I hope that makes sense.

[@azrani2023]

@@sewncompany Thank you that was my exact same question too hahaha.

[@sharleenp3765]

cool
