Hemming pants with a sewing machine

[@cindyolson6108]

I'm bound and determined to master this technique, but it has been hit and miss until I discovered your tutorial. Absolute perfection in teaching this blind hem stitch. Thank you ! ❤

[@melanie_luv2_sew]

I own a Kenmore from 50 years ago. I does this Blind Hem stitch. It has come in handy quite a few times.

[@nanny23]

Thank you for making the blind hem stitch so clear! When I got a new machine the lady showed me how to do a blind hem, but she got me so confused I never could figure it out!

[@BeautifulOaks]

It’s just the encouragement I needed to hem my linen pants! Thanks!

[@wilycat5290]

I have NEVER understood how to use the blind hem stitch until now. Thank you!! 😊👍💕

[@deborahsmith5357]

Blind hemming on my machine is one of favorites!

[@zaidydel7145]

The you explained this is so easy to follow! Thanks!

[@pattihansen6099]

A mystery solved! You are such a great instructor with easy to follow directions! Thank you!

[@Quiltgirl10]

Thanks for the great video on how to blindstitch a hem. I am going to try this on a pair of shorts I need hemmed.

[@nikkicocharo-lutes1521]

Thank you so much for this tutorial! This is so helpful. Plus your nails are gorgeous!

[@linettlt7225]

you are so good at explaining things clearly and thoroughly! thank you!

[@dorisosborne132]

Thank you. I needed this today

[@lauralina781]

Thank you so much for this video. My sons homecoming is today. Hoping I can pull this off 😅

[@susanrichtarcik5672]

Thank you, for all your videos

[@emilychadwick3857]

Thank you, this is one of the best videos on the blind stitch hem. ❤

[@abrnat4403]

Never thought to baste the hem down so the pins aren’t sticking me at every turn. I always learn something from you, thank you!

[@donnarehrig5808]

Thank you for the detailed lesson and showing the foot and your manual. I could never understand this procedure.

[@conqueringmountscrapmorewi2509]

Hello! I hope you had an awesome day! I had a very busy but fun filled day in my sewing room ironing more fabrics and now I get to hand quilt. Thank you for posting your video.

[@sandan2358]

I can’t wait to get home from my trip to see I own this foot.

[@greycat7773]

Great Tutorial!! So helpful, I will be trying to hem my 1st pair of dress pants thanks to this video.

[@marilynhardman5239]

Thank you for sharing! I’ve never known how to hem with that foot. 💐

[@Jocantral]

Thanks so much for this video. Sometimes we need a reminder - I was not sure if I had a blindstitch foot. But sure enough my old Janome has one.

[@rachelseaman5317]

Thank you, this was a great video!

[@bhallmark3390]

I never knew how the blind hem stitch was achieved, so thank you so much for taking the mystery out of it! Your video is very much appreciated!

[@alisonlee4723]

Laura thank you this is genius ! to mark the wrong side for turning the hem saves a lot of fiddle with a tape measure & the basting stitch is a great idea.

[@karenh2890]

I have done this stitch in the past, but I actually forgot about it! Thank you for this. I actually have a pair of pants I need to hem!

[@kellietrudel8222]

I love your two step method. Genius! Ps the pants are cute. Thank you!

[@robinriley2306]

I really needed this!

[@downtnchatt9286]

This is great and easy to follow. Thank you!

[@bierjip1]

Excellent explanation!

[@lindaalley5411]

Thank you for this video. I have always wanted to learn how to sew a blind hem. This helped me so very much!♡

[@amyshimonkevitz4803]

I have loved using the blind hem stitch since I figured out how to use it. The result is so professional, and I found the first time was the most trying, but after that it was very easy.

[@1960Connie]

Thanks Laura! Best way I’ve heard this explained. I appreciate you doing this for me.

[@marycreed-pallone9732]

Thanks so much for this video! I need to hem almost all the pants I purchase, and over the years there have been many pants I wound up donating with the tags still on because I never got around to doing it! I look forward to following your video the next time I need to hem something!

[@GrrannyH1]

I love doing the blind hemstitch on my machine. It is SOOOO much faster than sewing the hem by hand. And I never even thought about basting the hem first. I need to try adapting this technique to see if I can use it to attach the binding to my quilts. NOPE, the way I attach the binding now, i.e., with a straight stitch, is what I am sticking with

[@delappcatherined9041]

Let us know how it works!

[@dianemiller9050]

I haven’t been successful using the blind hem. I’ve never put in the basting stitch. Love your pretty dress/top.

[@soniad.9411]

You are such a superb teacher!!! You have so much patience and explain every little detail with such precise instructions. Thank you so very much because I truly feel secure in making new projects, thanks to you. We are all so very lucky to have you.

[@lindaloostrom7025]

I’m anxious to try this!! I’ve always wanted to but didn’t think it would work so well!! Thank you!!

[@RedKittieKat]

As a visual learner ... this is fantastic. Thank you 🥰 ... .and I love those linen pants too!

[@stephaniesmith2575]

Loved this video! I’d forgotten the technique and have avoided hemming some garments to make them fit current trends!

[@amandastratton8242]

Thank you for a great tutorial Laura, I have the foot and a manual and still couldn't figure it out 🤔but now thanks to your excellent teaching I am ready to go !! Thank you again x

[@lyndagodin3712]

What a great video! I've often seen the diagram for the blind stitch in the manual, but had never tried it or seen it done. I have a few garments that need hemming, and now I'll definitely give it a go. Thanks so much for sharing your instructions!

[@portialanden6353]

Thank you Laura!

[@heidicook2395]

Thank you!

[@munequa718]

I loved this video. I was wondering the pattern that you used for the pants, I would like to make a pair.

[@JoyKOz]

Thanx Laura ❤️👍🏻😘

[@charlenecastaldo3602]

Thank you, Laura. It's been a while since I've hemmed anything on my machine. This was a great refresher. You are a wonderful instructor! ♥️ I also love the top you're wearing. Did you make it?

[@kathydavid2897]

Great video! Do you have a video on how to raise armholes on womens sleeveless tops using a top not a pattern?

[@flamingomn]

this looks so easy, maybe even I can do it ! : do i HAVE to have the special foot? will it work with the 'normal' foot that comes with the machine?

[@christinedye957]

Thank you for showing the proper way of machine hemming. I really like your top, was it a purchased item or did you make it? If you made it, can you tell where you got the fabric and the pattern? Have a wonderful 4th of July celebration.

[@pattiann8477]

that basting stitch is a game changer! pins just don't make it!

[@Manyanababy]

❤️❤️❤️

[@MrMasteryash]

Do I need a heavy duty sewing machine to hem denim jeans pants? Can anyone please help im confused

[@victrolae]

You are taking too many operations to get to the blindstitch hem.

[@rendmendecclesiastes3728]

She showed you how to do it, so now you can make a shorter version and leave the link under your comment. Some newer sewist may need a more detailed version as she has done.
