You are really a professional! I look everywhere in you tube and you were the only one who didn't come out with the sacrilege of "shorten a Jean preserving its original hem"

Dorothy’s expertise comes through in every detail of this tutorial. This is by far the best I’ve found on Youtube. I’ve learned so much about sewing from this that doesn’t even have to do specifically with hemming jeans.

I have searched YT for YEARS, trying to find a video from which I might "glean" enough info to PROPERLY hem my jeans.
THIS video is THE best, I've found!
Thank you, Dorothy!
I wish you would post another video.😁❤

This is the best ever video I've found on the Internet.
It's precise and to the point without pointless blathering on.
The instructions are fantastic and I would love to watch more of your videos.
Can I ask why there have been no more please?

I would have never thought to trim down the inside seams to make it less bulky. Thanks for the really good tip and entire video!

Thanks so much for the advice. I had my laptop on the table so that I could sew along with you. It was so helpful! Especially, the tip on cutting away the inside seams. I wouldn't have thought of that. I'm new to sewing and this was my first time hemming jeans. So thanks again!

Thank you so much! I wanted a video on how to properly hem jeans (not one of the hundreds on how to do it "using the original hem"). I found your video to be thorough and easy to understand.

thank you nice lady for this tutorial. I watched about 5 today, but I like yours a lot and will combine a bit of another technique to reduce the fabric at the seams. have a nice day! :)

Short, to the point, and easy on the eye. You have demystified it for me thanks.

Thank you so much. You made it so easy, I hemmed about eight pairs of pants in one go!

This is a very clear, concise video and showed me great techniques in hemming jeans. Your tips are immensely helpful and I learned so much that I feel comfortable in trying to hem jeans myself, something I would never have tried before watching your video. I strongly disagree with a few commenters who say the video was too long. I hope you get the chance to do more videos since you have a wonderful way of demonstrating and sharing your experience in sewing. ~ Carol S.

This is great for a person new to sewing - thank you!

Thanks for this. In my situation, the leg cuffs were severely worn on lined jeans. Instead of measuring, I just used the stitch holes as a guide for the folds. I have a Tiptronic 2020, which helps. The hardest part was ripping the seams. And, the two best tips from the video were hot ironing and cutting back on the over-folded seams.

I use pliers- "Robogrips" from Sears, I think- to squeeze down those side seams. (Amazing tool!) I just watched a video about keeping the original hem, and I've been sewing for 40+ years- and I'm not sure I would like the bulk around the hem. I've never had anyone complain about the appearance of hemmed jeans. Might be good for kids who are growing!
