Your work is so good. Could not believe you reused the topstitching thread on jeans! Thumbs up
Thanks so much 🥰 I reuse the thread when I don't have matching thread if I can. Cheers 🙂
She has unreal attention to detail! 💞
Oh my goodness!!! You showed solutions I never dreamed of!! I have always had a problem w/ hour glass waist. Pockets are always a problem...never thought of breaking it down as you did!! Thank you for sharing your wisdom & explaining the steps so thoroughly!!
Thanks so much 🥰 I'm glad this information will help ☺
I can tell you have a lot of customer experience from your very polite and respectful polite description of body types. 😇 It is what it is but many do not accept it. Thanks!
Thank you very much, we have to normalize different body types. Everyone is different and that's what makes us unique 🥰
@@DowntownTailoring ❤
Just when I thought I saw it all, you explain for us more details about making a waist smaller. Oh my I enjoyed this video and learnt more. Muchas Gracias Señora.
Now I know why I haven’t been able to find a well fitting Jean since high rise became fashionable again! Now I know how to tailor them! Yay!
Woohoo! Glad to help! I feel that basic anatomy is often forgotten with these new clothes these days! 😅
Ironing the thread is a great idea! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks 🥰 I'm glad you liked it!
This was a good explanation for patterns in industry and different body shapes
I can never break the chain like you can .
Hi. I have a video explaining how to easily open difficult seams on jeans. Cheers 🙂
I so enjoy all your great instruction !!
Thanks so much 🥰
Excellent video - i learn so much watching you - my mom was an expert seamstress but she worked in a tailors shop so I rarely got to see her work…..
Excellent video! Many thanks.
Wow, that is amazing info. Thank you!!!
Awesome video! Thank you!
Thanks for a great video, I love your work
Brilliant! Reusing that thread from the original chain stitch was a genius move. I always learn a good trick or two from you!
Thanks so much 🥰 You are so kind 💕
Excellent work you do! Thanks.
Thanks 🥰
Keeping the string! That’s brilliant!
Really pleased by this vlog.I and now my daughter has this problem with zlevis jeans.
I’m glad to help! Happens often! :))
Thank you! this is exactly what I need to do on a pair of thrifted jeans.
My pleasure 🥰
Thank you so much for these videos I’ve learned so much! I’m more of the apple shape and I STRUGGLE with alterations on my pants. No hips, no butt, no idea how to fix the fit on my pants. I’d love to see a video for that with tips and strategies for this! ❤️
Yes! I'll post more solutions for different body types. Stay tuned 😉
I absolutely love your instructional videos. Learning so much from an excellent teacher. I’m the Kate model.
Thanks 🥰
I would have never thought you could reuse the original thread. Great tip!!! I also like the way you distribute the darts instead of taking everything from the back seam. TFS
Thank you! I'm glad you liked it 🥰
Your work is amazing!!! I wish I could sit down next to you and just watch all day!!
Thank you 😍🥰🥰
This is a really great video. I have had problems with buying pants my whole life. I have an hourglass shape like Anne, and I am also a plus size petite (and some people do not even know what that means). Finding a pair of jeans in a store that fit at the waist, hips, and length is like finding a unicorn. Learning how to properly alter my things is helping me to have a lot more options.
Oh yes. I completely understand your situation. I heard that gap has some curvy line that might fit you. Good luck!
@@DowntownTailoring thanks for the tip. I'll check that out. I've had good luck with Lane Bryant in the past, but they keep changing their fit. 🙄 And believe it or not, Walmart's new line, Terra and Sky is not bad, particularly for the price point.
This literally helped solve a problem I have had forever! Thank you! I would have never though about the darts!
🥰🥰🥰
Great video, your explanations are great! Could you maybe also provide a series of videos especially for dresses? Like adding decorations (flowers, sequins, pearls), boning and working with transparent, delicate materials. I’m sure you would have a lot of great tips for us, would be all interesting 😊
Another excellent video, clearly explained, well organized, professional alterations. I also thought you did a clear and respectful explanation of 'body types,' that made a lot of sense even to an old guy. All I can say is 'thank you very much, again.' YVR
Lou, I'm so glad there are some guys, old or otherwise, that can see the frustration that ladies go through buying pants. It is so stressful to go into a store to find that somehow your BODY TYPE has gone out of style. 🤦♀️. Like...how is that a thing?!?!
Thanks 🥰 After so many years, I see bodies like empty canvas to create art.
Thanks for sharing
My pleasure!
You are very smart and professional lady
Thanks for your kindness 😊
Great work
Thanks 😊
Thanks for sharing 🤩 I have an hourglass figure and this is something I always have to do. Once I did the mistake of taking evening in the center that the inside corners of the pockets ended up in the center seam. Have to open everything again and take also from the sides, that way the pockets where centered 😅
You got it! Try and error works too 😉
You keep teaching this old dog new tricks!
🥰🥰🥰
I LOOOVE SEEING AND LEARNING FROM UR VIDEOS I HAVE BEEN FIXING MY DAUGHTERS AND MY PANTS WITH UR VIDEOS I NEED TO GET MY OLDEST SONS PANTS AND MY OTHERS GROWN KIDS PANTS TO FIX WHEN I SEE THEM TO GET MORE PRACTICE IN THANKS TO UR WONDERFUL VIDEOS!!
It is my pleasure to help 🥰
Excelent job and it look very good. Have a great day and thank you
Thanks so much! You too 😘
@@DowntownTailoring 🙏🏼😊
Your follower from Germany 🇩🇪 thanks a lot 😍
Thanks so much 🥰
I'm off work today too much snow here in Southeastern Ohio. I was so happy when I saw your video come up. I am rewatching your previous videos for the 4/5 times LOL
I love this I needed it so bad since I am doing more jean alterations now since I found your channel. I thank you for the link to the thimbles I found MANY more items I needed LOL The prices are so much better than Amazon I bought razor blades and a handheld steamer and several more trinkets and rulers. Great site I had enough for FREE shipping lol oh and I found the perfect hangers I needed for my school letterman jackets I like to give the customer their finished letterman jackets on a hanger and a plastic cleaners cover. I think it looks so much more professional than just handing the jacket, we sold more than 50 letterman jackets before Christmas I do the embroidery and stitching on year numbers and letters.
Thank you again for this channel you are so generous to share your knowledge and you make learning so much fun. I would work for you for free so I could learn. :)
Hi Evelyn. You are so nice! I'm so glad you liked this site. This is the one I use the most. They have great prices and selection. Cheers 🙂
@@DowntownTailoring I know I had already ordered my hand stapler and staples from Amazon they had a great price I will def check there before I order things from Amazon I did get the staple remover though it was so reasonable and I did not get it from amazon Thanks for the link
Hi, what link do you mean? May I have it please?
@@kimberleyjane2338 Hi Kimberly I was talking about the thimble she used in this video, she gave me the link to where she bought it. WOW, I was in heaven shopping on their site. The prices are so good I love my magnetic dishes they are very strong magnet for when you are working on your machine and need to put your screws in something they are perfect of pins and other things too. Something else I bought the whole box of USA-made single-side razor blades. Probably won't ever need to buy another blade but an awesome price. I needed machine oil so reasonably and bought 2 of the oil bottles one for home one for work, little snips, chalk marking pencil with refillable colors of chalk. Prices are so much better than AMAZON. Over 100$ free shipping.Oh and I found the handheld steamer I needed for removing hoop marks at work from embroidery.

@@1954evelyn Thank you very much, Evelyn! Have a great day!
You are very good with what you do. I learn so much from your video. May I know what brand of chalk you are using. In one of you videos, you mentioned its is the best that you’ve used. Thanks so much.
Awesome
Genial!👏
What patience. This is why alterations have to cost $$$
Another well done video. I didn't even notice the color or lack of color on models. I was too interested in the info being given. Which was outstanding and above my head. I am too afraid of unsewing a flat fell seam. I know just need to try on a pair of thrift store pants, if mess up not much lost. Could you please show how to alter pants for people who do not have a butt. Every pair I purchase are huge in the seat and upper thigh area. Thank you.
Yes! I will. Thanks 🥰
Nice
I cant even see the darts, awesome.
Thanks 🥰
Very helpful and detailed. Thank you for sharing. I am curious as to where you were trained or are you self taught?
Hi! Thanks so much. I went to fashion school. I graduated from fashion design, tailoring and pattern making. But most of my experience comes from the day to day. I try to learn daily. Cheers 🙂
Nét sửa rất hay
What do you mean divide by 2
I don't understand would you please help me out here
How do you get the darts to lie so flat without puckering at the tip? The jean material makes it so hard. I love your videos, use them all the time to alter my family's clothes!
Thanks so much 🥰 I contour most of the darts. You can get more info on this video:

Cheers 😊
How can I make a Jeans to bigger size ?Size 8 to size 10 .
I wanna be your client baaadly!❤❤❤
🥰🥰🥰
How much would would you charge for a job like that last pair of black jeans? Where you have to open more seams and take in from multiple locations around the waist, and then re-do top stitching.
Yes. This is a bigger job than the regular take in waist at the back. It should be charged almost double. Multiply your regular charge for 1.7 and you have a reasonable price. Cheers 🙂
I have jeans that I just took all 3 inches needed to make them fit out of the center back, and you are correct they look terrible! But I say those are jeans I wear with long shirts or tunics and it's fine 🤣
😂😂😂 You know that I'm a little bit too dramatic! 😂 Almost every body will use a top a little longer anyways. Not the end of the world! Cheers.
I want to buy a few industrial machines for my shop. Can you make a video about equipment?
Definitely, this is a theme I need to tackle!
Morecthan a little bit. Like 4 inches.
Awesome video .
I was wondering if as a business owner, do you require payment up front or deposit of some kind ?
I have had couple experiences where I do the work and it hasn’t been collected I’m left out of pocket
TIA
Yes. Unfortunately I do require full payment upfront. This is new, but I had to do it for the same reason as you. You could ask at least 50% upfront. I think your clients will understand.
@@DowntownTailoring thanks 🙏
Hi is there a way that you can do a video on converting high rise jeans into low rise jeans for all my short torso people 💕
Oh yes. Short torso need to lower the rise sometimes. Stay tuned 😉
@@DowntownTailoring yayyyy I’m so excited 😆
How would you attempt fixing a pant badly altered- for example I made a mistake:/ I took in too much at the center back seam and now there is an awkward angle on my client when she came to pick it up… is there any fixing that can be done..
What do I do if my client is unhappy… how would you handle this situation. I never knew until now that that would be a problem 😞
My client brought me corduroy pants high waist - she’s small at the waist and large hips and bum
I'm so sorry that this happened to you. Sometimes, it's hard to catch this situation before you start the job.
I usually leave at least a 1" seam allowance to be able to do some corrections afterward. If you did, you could try to let out about 3/4" on the center and then make 2 darts of about the same 3/4". This, for sure, will reduce the deep curve that was created at the center back.
I'll be posting another video with more clarifications about waist take in.
I hope this helps 💐
@@DowntownTailoring I did leave an inch hehe thank you I will attempt this correction 🥲
Amazing - but a lot of work
Yes! I know. Sometimes people have to ponder what would be the best. Cheers 🙂
I watch ALOT of sewing videos .. ; ) ... as we all do; but I have to say, I get far more out of watching yours! I have one request, please:: could you post before & after photos, side- by- side for us? It would be very valuable help for us. Thank you kindly, in advance. Dios te bendiga!
Thanks so much. I have to do this more. I try to do as much as possible but I think I'll try to post side by side, before and after shots always. Thanks so much for the suggestion 😊
:)
