I still believe the easiest yet prettiest small alteration was the orange dress!! It looked so pretty after you fixed it!! But also the jeans with the gold embroidery must have been hard but the results paid off!!

Girl I just needed to tell you how you've influenced my way of dressing.
I've gone from years of wearing all black, then fading into a quiet depression with my clothes by hiding behind baggy stuff I've had for years... To not buying alot of clothes, but diving into the mujeres of my family's closets and going back to my love of thrifting.
I went from being afraid to be looked at to going full monochrome, wearing all my dream pièces, being playful with my style, and most importantly loving my vessel again and feeding and treating her right.

And today, the universe sent you to make me bring out my sewing machine and finally splurge on that mannequin, to alter the pile of clothes that has been sitting here for months.

Love you

babes you did FIFTEEN alterations, that is such dedication oh my goodness!

[Farroutman]

I never realized how much better properly fitting clothes looked on a person until I watched this video. This gives me the motivation to practice and learn how to alter clothes properly for myself and others. Great video!

I have no experience whatsoever with sewing but this video encouraged me to do some type of research and learn how to alter my clothes 😂 especially while I'm trying to revamp my wardrobe!

[amandatyler]

Love this! 💗

To prevent puckering, don’t sew to the bottom of the dart, make your line attached 3/4 of the way down. I hope I’m explaining that well. 🤞🏾

What is the make/ model of your sewing machine?

My mom had to alter all of my pants growing up because I had really weird proportions and I'm glad she taught me how to alter clothes too. I was always really skinny but eventually also grew and clothes would never fit on my waist and my leg length at the same time. I still always get the butt gap so learning how to fix that issue specifically was very important for me. You can do a lot of these alterations without a sewing machine too you just need more patience if you hand sew but it's totally possible I've shortened jeans by hand.

Children's theatre teacher here! Thank you so much for this! I was never big in costuming and now I'm starting from scratch. This makes it so much easier to understand.

This was also my reason for getting a sewing machine a few months ago and it has been so liberating and opening my eyes to all the possibilities!

[emmacavanagh]

Love this! When resizing darts it can really help to put them on inside out and pin your new sew line, and also to extend the dart a little bit further so that the sew line can merge into nothing as gradually as possible (the less abruptly the dart ends, the less chance of puckering) and agree with the other comments on ironing! ✨

I Absolutely LOVE that you give us a little dance for every try in!! Fun vibes every time!!!

[stephaniejohns]

Just wanted to say I wasn’t expecting to be the most impressed at the way you speak about your body in relation to your clothes. No dialect about “oh now I look skinnier” or comments about how the clothes present you to others on the outside. Only comments about how the clothes make you FEEL after you change them. Amazing and inspiring

[missmatti]

Well done for getting around altering your clothes! 👏🏻 I think some of the pants especially the pink pair mainly needs a good press on a tailors ham to look like it has less puckering. A good press on a dart makes all the difference! 😊 Also, love your thread holder hack 😍

You have saved a life with this video, I swear. I lost 6-7 fingers off my waist and hips in the past couple of years and it's either get a whole new wardrobe, pay big $$ for alterations or learn how to do this for myself. THANK YOU.

[steelebird]

Thank you for also talking about things that did not work out how you expected (for better or worse), it really helps me think through the best methods for each piece I want to alter!

[lauw]

Yo Homegirl, I started sewing classes last year to learn how to alter all of my wardrobe as I started to lose quite a bit of weight. I learnt how to create a garment from scratch, even creating the pattern myself, but I was left with no confidence in altering. This video has helped massively, and I love how care free you are with it 💛

[cho]

girl with how much you took off that purple skirt you can definitely make it a two piece set so cute!!

[bruhpellegrino]

girl, that japanese denim is absolutely stunning!

[lindaendres]

It's amazing how much better clothes look when they fit. I love the way you make alterations, I am always pleased when I meat people who sew the same way I do. I feel vindicated, because I can still hear my Home Economics teacher chastising me.

So glad I found this video, that bowl and straw tip is so cool. I've been having a tough time
