Ik that you have made multiple videos of you sewing jeans together but you should make a turtorial on how to make just a normal pair of jeans or skinny jeans and show the whole process of what it takes to make a pair of jeans from scratch. I don’t find many turtorials that show in depth like your videos and that would be a god send for me cuz jeans are probably my scariest sewing project 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@anbentha]

I've already started on this vid, next few weeks I hope

@@anbentha ik it’s a late reply but thank you so much. I wanna make clothes for a future brand hopefully n u always gave me the motivation to make shit myself. Thanks again it means alot

[@isthisnametaken9965]

All I wear are my own flare jeans. The method I came up with eliminates every unnecessary measurement and just makes it a 5 mins process. Only measurements I take is length and width of the flare. I flip the jeans inside out, split the jeans 20 inches in length, the width I use is 5 inches. I iron out the seams on their folds, I put some glue around the seam folds and place a big flare piece on top. I usually use cut up Jean pieces. Wait for the glue to dry and cut up excess fabric, then I just sew along the seams folds. Look exactly like some gallery’s. Very simple process, might seem like a lot but I be creating flare denims with ease

I actually really love the subtle color difference between the flare and the jeans.

[@AtilaHatak]

[@DontStopRemula]

Damn you are a hidden gem!

[@ruinmasters]

Watching this video after already making my pants to see if there's anything i can do better next time. Happy to learn some new tricks!

[@ALLVIBES333]

You’re a goat, I hope the vibes get returned

[@SneakyNinjaToad]

Great video as always. I’d just like to mention that as far as I know gallery dept almost exclusively uses 501s for these so if you’d like to be as close to gallery dept as possible I’d recommend using a pair of Levi’s 501 jeans.

another W vid

[@d.k1.9]

Thanks for the video, it was very helpful

[@aledagaro8075]

Tony schooled everyone on that stage.

[@Lukaw99]

Could you do a video on garment dyeing? If you could touch on the topics of sun fading or even distressing softer material like jersey knit I would appreciate that.

[@anbentha]

I will add that to the list, thank you.

[@somethingaboutsomething1]

[@2doorslesswhores160]

Can you do a tutorial on how to make cargo pockets?

[@anbentha]

I'll try to do something like this soon.

[@aloov]

can you try to make ends.rp (ends repair) denim?

[@Itztamolly]

Are you using a straight stitch for the top stitch on the inseam flare???? btw great video im in the process of making some right now

[@anbentha]

yes, it is just a straight stitch, and thank you.

[@cozythug]

can you change the flare paints back to normal jeans with the same design?

[@anbentha]

Yes, you would just do these steps in reverse.

[@youwillsee911]

I didnt even know anyone made jeans without side seam top stiched... Ir did you just seam rip those too? I am customizing my jeans but there is side seamallowance top stiched and it giving me trouble to sew my new pieces to the sides...

[@anbentha]

most of the time the outseam will be chain stitch or safety stitch, I've seen twin chain before but it is rare and usually only on workwear. If you have that you will probably have to use another pair of jeans. If you are talking about the inseam then that is common, just break the entire seam.

[@mr41841]

bro what do u mean with signing on and off at a stich?

[@anbentha]

You have to stack a few stitches whenever you start or end a seam, just go back and forth, if you can't pull it apart by hand then it should be fine.

[@Edoyume]

Can I do the same flare on the inside that you did on the outside or will it affect how the jeans look ? Because I didnt want to flare it all the way around on the inside but im not too sure if it will work otherwise

[@anbentha]

It depends on what the existing seam is on the inside, as long as it's not flat felled then yes.

[@guccicornflakes227]

great video, have you made a flare jeans cutting a big ass jean? like instead of adding denim you could remove some and make a shape, do you know the name of that technique? 😵‍💫

[@anbentha]

I know what you are talking about, I have never done it but I think it would be called rebuilding or something.

[@user-ez9ng1xw7r]

i opened up my denim to do more repair to the jeans and need help resewing the outset back together any tips ?

[@anbentha]

iron flat the previous allowance and sew it back together with a straight stitch, iron it again when you're done.

[@user-ez9ng1xw7r]

@@anbentha i appreciate it

[@Tobirot]

i dont understand whats the seam allowance??? whats the purpose of it??

[@anbentha]

It is the fabric that is past the stitch that is not visible from the outside, It does not change the way the pattern fits but is necessary so that the stitch itself has something to hold onto. You Can not sew right on the edge of the fabric or else the seam would not have any fibers of the fabric to form a stitch around.

[@flack0920]

I’m ngl you lost me in the inseam flare bro, so I make the panels WITHOUT seam allowance? And then when I go to stitch I’ll just do like 5/8(or any stitch)on each side and that’ll be the allowance or???

[@anbentha]

draft them to the dimensions that you need and then add it, you can do whatever as long as the flare piece ends up the same length as your entire inseam measurement.

[@pasapebbly1625]

How do I sew it without going through both sides?

[@anbentha]

you need to take apart the pants, the machine sews through anything under its foot

[@MoneyBagD855]

Can this work with sweatpants also? And if it does what if it has this tight fitting at the bottom of it and if I can turn it into flare?

[@anbentha]

It can work with almost any pants. For the tight fitting area at the bottom it depends on how it's done, if you have a separate piece of ribbing or something you'd have to remove it and replace the area with new fabric. If the hem of your pants is elasticated then you can just remove the stitching and unfold the elastic out of the hem.
