something I can't do; regret buying a large jacket
Exactly! You do not have to regret it anymore using these steps to resize your jacket 😊
dang I thought I just needed a washing machine and dryer this is level 100 stuff right here!
I don’t have 90% of whatever is in this vid (chalk, machine, iron, etc.). I only have my hands, pins, needles, and thread. What do I do?
You got the essentials so that is perfecto! If you could get fabric scissors that will be massively helpful 😃 With your hands and the rest of the materials you have (including a scissor, if you can get it) you can do all the steps in the tutorial. In the step I machine sew, you'll have to handsewn using the backstitch. It will take longer, but it is possible to complete. & the part where I use the chalk, you can use a pencil if the jacket is light enough to see pencil marks.
Thanks eQuariuz ☺️ It’s worth the time if you super wanna downsize. It may feel long at the beginning b/c it’s new. Maybe trying it out in a small scale first will feel easier.
Go to hell!
Throw the coat away. . Or take it to the cleaners.
Check out Bernadette Banner's channel, she has some amazing videos on hand sewing!
You really did a GREAT job! I used to sew a lot of my daughter's clothes when she was small so I am not a novice. However, I did learn something from you and I thank you. Your hand stitching skills are excellent -- WOW! Your video is great for those of us who have lost weight and hate to part with a favorite blue jean jacket just because it's too big.
I need this because my sister just gave me s really cute jacket but I’m a sMaLL bEaN
Aaaw well at least its big, this way you can downsize it exactly to the size you want it to be 😃 DM if you need any help while trying out this method
🤢
I had a jacket from 4th grade, and my goodness I was a CHUNKY BOI but I’m now a chicken legged twig apparently. And that jacket I kinda like but it too big, so thanks 🙏🏽
I actually learned something new from this video ... this is a great way to resize something with a lining without taking it apart 🙌🏻
100% Emma! Like I soo wanted to make sure to find a way to make it easy. Taking it apart OmG would have taken lots of time! Let me know of any tutorials you'll like :D
@@kaarasstyle I have a very similar jacket with which I need to the exact opposite, basically making it like xl sizes bigger.. How do I do that in reverse? My scissors won't cut in reverse :/
This is a wonderful video, thanks. Just an FYI, I bought a vintage machine that can sew through many layers of denim like butter. You would be able to sew the final seam with a machine like this and would take minutes instead of hours. My machine is a sew-mor and it's a dream.
Yes, I would have machined it too.
Kaara, can you do a video on the opposite? Go from a Large to XXL ? Same material...50 year old Vietnam Sateen. Thanks!!
I'm not sure why I never thought to use a flat felled seam for this!! I recently bought a denim jacket and after wearing it for awhile decided I bought it a little /too/ oversized. Can't exchange it because I've already started embroidering on it and it only needs to go in about an inch, maybe 2 anyway. Really well explained tutorial. ☺
Flat felled is one of my most fav seams!! I am glad the tutorial will have you adjust your jacket with your beautiful handmade embroidery. I love embroidering too 💕
Could you sew it inside-out to start with? Then you wouldn't have to finish the seam, iron it, and do the ladder stitch? Just cut excess material down so it isn't bulky?
Alison S this is what I was thinking lol
I also thought about this! but then she would not have the seam showing like it does on the other side of the jacket, now it looks the same
What Sarah said :) it's mostly cause the seams look like that on other parts of the jacket I'd say. I'm gonna do it your way though when I alter my bomber jacket!
That's how I do it...
I followed all the instructions and SEWED MY HAND TO MY FACE!! 🤦♂️
Lol
Wow very professionally sewn! I will use your technique. Thanks!
This is amazing. Your videography, close-ups, and explanations make it so easy to understand! I only know it's not as easy as it looks because I'm a DIY sewing youtuber myself ;) Also, major respect that you hand sewed for 6 hours to get a perfect seamless finish.
💖 Scrappy Treasures thank you I appreciate it!! I am happy you've liked the tutorial and have found it super clear. That is awesome you sew too 😃
You're very welcome :) How and why did you learn to sew?
I learned to sew thanks to my sewing teacher during my senior year in High School, then in college I took a few classes, but most of the time learn independently. And the reason as to why I do it is because I enjoy the process of creating and the creativity that goes into customizing clothing.The craft of working on our own clothing allows for more conscious + expressive fashion. I love it 💗 How about you, how and why did you learn :)?
Thank you so much for this video, I have a jacket to downsize. I will let you know how it turns out.
I have this second hand denim jacket that I'm trying to downsize so I can salvage it into a battle jacket... wish me luck
how did it go
@@Chris-fu1fy It went well
@@corvidwyrm4113 nicee
Me too! Hope it went well!
i’m literally here because of my battle jacket too 😭
Too much work. I threw the jacket away after watching this..
xD understanding
that's pretty wasteful
I feel your pain on that hand sewn ladder stitch. I am sure you know now...there were many other options you could have used on your sewing machine. 😫 Live and learn!
Instructions unclear now addicted to snorting chalk
How about the armpit seam? How do you resize that, so it wouldn't go beyond the shoulders?
What happened to the cuffs ?
You cut the sleeves from the sides and spared the cuff ?
or
you removed it then sew it later after resizing the sleeve??
Hey Garrima 😃 I cut the sleeves from the sides including the sides of the cuffs b/c the cuffs was also big, so I needed to resize them too.
I did it since middle high school till college cause my uniforms are always too big for me but my mom is kinda.. y dont need to get it smaller.. but, y know right.. we wear it n we know what size it ll be comfortable enough for us :))
im going to give this go never sewn anything before so could be a disaster. cool video ..
Thanks. Jesus Bless
Damm you are so beautiful 😍😍😍❤️
Where did you get the mini iron
Right on! You're killer, this is a very helpful video.
I just thrifted a Barbour jacket for $30 and I hope this method works 😅
Thank you! It is nice for anyone who lost weight to be able to downsize their clothes!
Hi, I know you posted this a year ago, and that this is a super late post, but does this work for a jacket with 3 different linings/fabrics? Like Polyurethane, Cotton, and polyester?
Hey K.F.R 😃 Yes it does work! It will just take you longer to keep.
Try wearing a thimble, gentler on your fingers and makes sewing easier and faster
Thank you for the tip!
I wish to upsize my XXXL north face jacket, engaging in the gym has made my overall physique a lot jakced, 17 inch arms, 48 inch chest, most jackets hurt my armpit area as i type on my laptop
I watch it for 5 times and I can't help it stop
ahaha really! omg I am so happy to know you've liked it this much C C 💖
Thanks a lot.... ❤
I got a varsity jacket and the hands are too big what should I do . I cnt return it coz it's from an instagram site and i wanna wear it on christmas please tell me what should I do
how to aesthetic
It's work...
amazing job girl !!!
Thank you so much Joy❣️I just realized this technique is also great for reducing the size of pants made out of light weight fabric 😃
very nice.
I LOVE YOU 👈⚘
This was brilliant! Thank you so much 🙏
I’m here because i just bought a pink trench coat that is so so cute but can fit 2 me-s inside
My jacket is a bit thicker with interior fabric soooo....what do I do then? lol
Wow! Can you do a video to make a small into a large?? 😂 I searched videos to expand but saw this and it’s GREAT!! But I need to make something bigger.
The tutorial is not available. Can you repost it?
how long does it take to iron a whole shirt with that iron 2:56 lol
ooh great technique Im going to try this on my baggy jacket
What about the big shoulder drooling
Lo que mas me gusto fue el cuerpazo que tienes que se ve lindo .... hermosisimo.
Mam plz tell me can puffy jacket be fit
Any ideas? Comment below
Super helpful
The written tutorial link is broken
cool. i can do this. thank you veru much.
very fuckin easy, I dont have 90% of whatever is in this video
With a needle, thread and fabric scissor you could do it 😃 It’ll take longer but worth the repair. k v r x l 366 if it’s your first time practice first and you’ll slowly but shortly learn.
****Excellent Directions**** Thank you!!
Can you do the same with soft shell body warmer? It is much thicker material.
I would definitely practice first on some scrap pieces to make sure your machine can handle it
Def trying this out today! I have a men’s camp jacket that is way too big
Can I do this with leather?
If your leather is lightweight yes :D If it's thick, then with this technique it will be difficult
Holy moly!! Great job!
This is fantastic! Thank you!
Step 1: Gain weight
You are looking sooo cute 😍❤
I think i love you
If the washing instructions say to only wash your denim jacket cold does that mean if you wash hot it will shrink? Or will something actually bad happen. My jacket says only wash cold but I want to shrink so is it a good idea to wash hot to shrink? I would love to try to make it smaller following your steps but I’m scared I’m gonna ruin it and I’m really bad at sewing
Hey Melany 😃 It’s the dryer that shrinks clothing, so you can wash it and place it in the dryer and it’ll shrink. What material is your jacket? It all depends on the material of your denim jacket, if it’s Cotton mixed with other materials it could. I would recommend to sew instead of shrinking it b/c you don’t know how small it’ll get. Practice this technique before using it in your jacket, this way you get to learn it and then apply it. You’ll feel more confident this way to try it out on the garment you want to resize. Good luck ☺️ I hope this helps!
@@kaarasstyle ok thank you for the tips! My jacket is cotton and polyester and it says “do not tumble dry” so I’m not sure if it says this because otherwise it will shrink (which is what I want) so it’s okay or whether something bad will happen to it if I do dry it in the machine
You have given me hope
Looks like you just rolled up your sleeves
Ty💙🌿💙🌿💙🌿!
i think im in love
Talked a lot!!
this is genius
Cute girl 😍
Such an amazing person.
Thank you L.A. Hensley ❤️ You are amazing as well!
How much would you charge to do that
Hey Nathan 😃 I’m not taking orders for resizing.
I love u
Who ordered a letterman jacket and said a little bit bigger because im still growing and they made it wayyyyyy to big?
ugh too bad they made it way too big, I hope the tutorial helps you make it smaller 😊 If you have any questions along the way let me know, since you are still growing I recommend to not make it too slim. You'll do great ❤
Kaara Mary thank you
you are beautiful...Love u😘😘
