Hi, I'm Wendy, and I have been on a sewing journey ever since my mom taught me how to make little outfits for my dolls. I studied engineering and business, had an office job for two years, and then quit to embark on a lifelong sewing adventure on Youtube. Subscribe to join me on the adventure, and maybe make your own clothing too! Thanks for watching ❤️

How much would you charge for me to just send the jeans to you and they have you do this LOL

This was so helpful thank you!! I was able to turn old flares from 10 years ago into new skinnys that fit perfectly :)

I have messed up soooo many of my high end jeans watching these videos. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I hope your video is the correct way. Thanks for sharing.

I don't know how to work with sewing machines so... that's that. 😂

Thank you so much for sharing. I am not only inspiring by creativity but also by your faith.

You have great diction and tone, so your videos are super easy to watch and learn from. I'm a 45-year-old guy who is learning to sew so that I can alter my own clothes; do you have any plans for tutorials for men's clothing?

This saved my Favorite pair of jeans ! ❤️
Thanks a lot for this tutorial :D

Have to do it with a serger, the best a sewing machine can do is a zigzag stitch to seal off the end. But don't feel pressured to get a serger! The zigzag is pretty good =)

I honestly love your channel! Your videos are short, simple and so creative! You inspire me to learn how to sew and make my own clothes. Thank you so much for making this awesome channel! :D

I'm going to watch again. I got a sewing machine for Christmas, heavy duty brother so I can hem and taper my husband's jeans. Thing is, I don't know how to sew & I've been watching videos to learn how to do both the taper and the hemming. I want to keep the original hem. Which I found a couple of good vids for that but then I was thinking can I still do that with tapering too. My favorite thing about this video was the scripture at the end. New subbie!

very helpfulll thankyouuu so muchh . i just started sewing my clothes using machine.. i love the outcome after refering to this video♥️♥️

[withwendy]

Should work! Sew the leg skinnier and then try it on before you cut off excess fabric, that way you can tell if it works before you commit =)

[withwendy]

You can alter either the inner or outer side, it depends on the way it is stitched and where you think the change will be least noticeable =)

[TheFlametree]

omg! This what I've been trying to find a tutorial of!!!!

[withwendy]

My sewing machine is a simple Kenmore machine, and other than that I just have a serger that is Brother brand.

[RebaRocks]

SO awesome to see that kind of thing around here! :)

[rogenastyles]

Fabulous thank you. I had some Jeans given to me which were handy for dog walking as I get muddy. They were a bit wide for tucking in the gators. All slimmed down now though.

Hi Wendy! I actually do know how to do this but your tutorials are awesome! It's very easy to see & understand everything. I wanted to know if you have ever taken in a pair of jeans that have decorative or fancy stitching on the seams & if so how do you suggest doing it? I have a friend that wants me to do this to her boot cut Ed Hardy & Silver jeans & I just can't decide how to do it or whether to tell her no. Thanks!
