Thank you so much! My mom is a seamstress but i never learned to sew. During covid she came to see me and we found a wonderful Singer sewing machine (with the original sewing kit, with bobbins, dethreader, feet)at the goodwill for $20. I learned to make masks, and have taken in clothes. Attempted a quilt for grandaughter, etc. However, although my mom is a pro she never taught me this way of taking in pants. Makes me wonder if she knows how. Maybe ill show her something when she visits me again. She is 93. So God willing we have many more visits. Ty once again!

Thank you!! I have tons of shorts and jeans that need taking in. I’m excited to try this! Yours is the best tutorial I’ve seen

It is nice to see videos about hand sewing instead of machine sewing since not everyone has a machine

Thanks for getting into the instructions at once without any long intro. I’ve got plenty of embroidery thread. 👍👍

This is the tailoring I needed on 2 pairs of jeans! Thank you.

[bobbijackson]

thank you so much- this is such a quick fix rather than removing the entire waistband!

[tchx]

Damn, this was really helpful!! Thank you very much!

do you divide the 1 1/2 inch in half and take up on both sides to equal that amount or do you do the whole 1 1/2 on just the one side.

First timer here✋🏾and I must say your instructions were spot on! Managed to take in one side of my jeans. It took less than 10 mins to do. I used normal sewing thread but doubled it up and just took my time when pulling it all in. Thank you 👍🏾

[hnajee]

Thanks a million. This is the best. Have many jeans that need to be adjusted 💐🌹🙌

[schnoozs]

Such an great idea. Losing weight and not going to buy new clothes. Thanks!!!

My now late mum loved sewing 😢. Today marks one year without her and am watching everything she loved❤❤

[margotswanson]

Do you do anything to "finish" the inside? is that chunk of fabric irritating to wear?

[slay_queen]

It actually worked ❤ and I was afraid since I don't know anything about sewing ...very useful video

[ChrysGonz]

are you using all 6 strands of embroidery floss? thank you!

[kriskyleanthony]

Thank you for making this! I lost weight after baby and I’m so excited to do this to my skirts 🫶🏻

[nisebiggs]

Wow! I'm going to try this. Hope it works.

[Phatdaddybud]

Thanks so much!!
Exactly what I was looking for.

I guess I need to start with a tutorial on how to do the needle and thread.

I do not understand how you only put a knot on one side of the thread and the needle pulls through without detaching from the thread if only one end is tied🤔

What about the side with the tiny pocket? There isnt as much room.
