Sew Over It - Jeans Club Part 5 - Denim & Topstitching

[@Lily.Mac56]

Loved this episode ladies, particularly your little details like the embroidery and purple thread! I'm not ready to make jeans but am enjoying living vicariously through you!

[@lynnieblinnie1066]

I’m really enjoying these videos and i love the way that you’ve both personalised your jeans. Hope they sew up well for you both xxx

Well done ladies enjoy the process - I found using scraps of fabric to use as a hump jumper was also beneficial when sewing several layers together and also trimming some of the seams when possible. I like to check twice then sew 😘

A good option for topsitching is to use 2 regular threads. Thread them together though most of the machine, except for the last hook before the needle. Just thread one thread through that and let the other one by pass it.

I’ve done a few pairs now and my latest pair I’m using two threads through one needle and it’s working perfectly. My topstitching is some of my best and my pockets are 👌🏻. May be worth a try. My machine really didn’t like topstitching thread and I never used it - and it’s not cheap 😢.

Hi what weight denim did you use? can’t hear a reference to it but maybe I didn’t listen properly. Ty

We both bought our denim at a stall at a sewing festival and the seller didn't have the denim weight listed unfortunately, so we went by touch 😞
