This is extremely cost effective after loosing weight, is helpful for men's shirts

Awesome I’m glad to hear you like it!

[@BlairPittams]

@@cinderellasew I really was asking if a men's shirts can be tightened in because of the collar

[@curlycocoanut]

saved me! I feel confident in tightening this jumpsuit for a cosplay i’m doing! thank you so much

[@cinderellasew]

Ahhh that’s awesome! You got this!

[@hebrewprincess9687]

I love your videos! Will you ever make videos on how to make actual garment pieces? Like a dress or simple pants from scratch?..

[@cinderellasew]

I’m not good at making things from scratch but I do have some designs you can make from a T-shirt or some thing where a lot of the main stitching is already done. Thank you so much for your comment! It’s always good to hear what people are liking the vids

I’ve used this method before and it didn’t seem to have enough integrity to stay together. Gaps formed between the two fabrics and the thread isn’t strong to withstand much movement. I’d suggest more than a thin piece of thread and straight line back stitch. Just doesn’t seem like it’ll hold up for long.

[@cinderellasew]

@@lotuslabyrinth666 you might have sewed it a little too tight. Take out the stitches and try a little looser! And the stitches closer together ✨

You are a life saver 🥹❤

[@cinderellasew]

thank you :)

[@keeshab444]

Just wondering.. can you cut off the excess material after sewing instead of leaving on?

[@cinderellasew]

Yes! Great question. If you leave it there you can resize it again in the future but if you know it’s the right size, snip away and leave at least 1cm of fabric

[@joshd404]

Would this work for a knitted material? Should i use a thicker thread?

[@cinderellasew]

Any thread should be fine! It will work! Let me know how it goes

[@mojija183]

how much thread should I use?

[@cinderellasew]

About an arms length should be good!

[@yanginq]

I always find fhe best clothes but they never fit me on the waist, this will help me so much 😢

[@cinderellasew]

Amazing! Let me know if you have any questions 👏🏽

[@organized_chaos001]

The dress that I have is a kind of thick material. Would the stitches still work? I’m worried they’d break.

[@cinderellasew]

Yes definitely! Just test the thread before you sew, cotton thread might break but normal thread is very strong

[@organized_chaos001]

@@cinderellasew thank you

[@carolhalpin481]

Hi....I'm wondering if you'd every tried making shorts smaller. Lost enough weight for everything to look horrible. No point in losing if I'm still going to look larger! lollll thankyou xo

[@cinderellasew]

I agree! Waistbands are hard to make smaller but let me see what I can try!

[@blitz0.8]

Hello! If you wanted a fitted look around the waist but nowhere else would you start from a different point in the clothing? Like just before the wait starts would you go in like this _______ | | ¦) (¦

[@cinderellasew]

Exactly! Just make sure you start and end on the side seam, before and after you curve in. Good idea!
