Hi! Just about to try this out, great easy to follow vid :) If I try it out on flared jeans, since the hem is slightly bigger then where i'm going to stitch it too, do i cut off some of the hem? In the vid I noticed there's a slight difference for your pants too but it didn't seem to change anything

Flared jeans shouldn't be any different when sewing them to the length you want, but then make sure you securely stitch all the extra fabric up to the side seams so that it's hidden and won't easily fall down. You could fold some of the extra fabric too when you hide it away!

Mm I would say any regular sewing machine that you can get your hands on that is in good working condition! There are lots of affordable second hand options, and also new options that offer very similar quality. Try to check reviews as there will be some rated more highly than others, but entry level machines from Brother, Singer, Janome should all so the trick!

can you cut the excess that was folding over on the inside after you’re done sewing the hem so it’s not as bulky at the bottom?

You can except denim does fray quite a lot. So if you have a serger or zig zag stitch it would hold the edge together and stop it from fraying (but of course those are machines and not by hand)

Thanks for this tutorial! It’s definitely the quickest and easiest guide I’ve found (and great for those without sewing machines). My only concern is that, depending on the weight of the denim, this method leaves a lot of bulky fabric just above the new hem. Do you ever cut off the excess material rather than anchoring it at the seams and ironing it down? If so, what’s the best approach? Thanks again!
@SlewLiving
3 ай бұрын
Thank you for leaving a lovely comment! Yes, the fabric can get quite bulky toward the hem. I would avoid cutting it because denim frays very quickly leaving lots of loose long threads, so unless you have access to a serger or a zig zag stitch to clean up after cutting, I would avoid it. If you had access to a serger or a zig zag stitch you could easily trim off the excess fabric and serge so that the fraying doesn't occur. Hope that helps!
