How to Make Your Jeans Bigger by Inserting Elastic - 3 WAYS FROM VERY EASY TO PROFESSIONAL!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 июн 2021
- Hello friends! In today’s video, I wanted to show you three ways to make your jeans bigger by inserting elastic. I made another video about making your jeans bigger a few months ago and I received many requests on a video of me inserting elastic! The next video I want to make in my "making jeans bigger" series, I want to demonstrate how you insert an entire strip of jeans from the waistband to the hem, so please let me know if that interests you!

I went to a professional tailor where I live. I had two pairs of pants I needed let out a bit. She told me she couldn’t do it😏 little did she know I can sew just had a machine issue so I went and bought a new machine and with these instructions I’ll get it done ✅ thank you so much🥰
Fantastic! Happy sewing! 😊
Not only is your sewing great--your soft melodic accent makes me feel like I could do it. Thank you so much.
Awe! You’re so sweet 🥹 Thanks 😊
Thank you so much for this video. I've been sewing for a lot of years and do alterations for friends and family, but I've always said "No" to altering jeans. Now I feel I can tackle them after seeing this. I also have a number of pants that I need to let out the waistline and Women's pants don't usually have enough seam allowance to let out much. Like a lot of people, the pandemic has encouraged a lot of us to eat more and the resulting added pounds. LOL. I'm glad I found your channel and appreciate you taking the time to teach us.
Thanks so much for watching. Certainly we've grown to the sides lately 😉
You possess uncanny rare talent…the ability to instruct as well as demonstrate. A win-win for viewers. Thank you for sharing…
Aweee... Thanks so much for your kind comment. I'm glad you like watching my videos 🥰
Yes, some people have the knowledge, but cannot teach. This lady has it all!
Yes I agree , one of the best demonstration and commentary, she has made it easy. Thank you ❤️
I love option 1 & 2. Going to try and fix a few pairs of jeans I was planning to donate because they were too tight. Thank you so much for starting this channel! I really appreciate all the advice on tailoring and garment repair that you share here! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Ouuu you’re so kind, thank you! And good luck on your project!
Could you do a tutorial similar to this one but for maternity? That would be so great to se a more professional way to adjust regular jeans for a person who is experiencing!
Yes! We'll work on it!
I recently thrifted 2 pair of jeans that are so “vintage” they don’t have any spandex whatsoever. Therefore the waist needs some expansion. You’re my go-to for alterations. I have the wide elastic, but never thought to join strips to make even wider. Thanks so much for sharing your expertise
You are absolutely right! The first one looks better, but the others look good as well. Perhaps with more practice we will do the first way too! Great job and thanks for showing us your techniques. You are a great teacher!!!
This looks so good. I’m a long way from being able to do this but this is goals
I think the second one, easy and so nicely finished. Great as always.
You are amazing!! Such good, clear instructions! Thank you for sharing. Obviously you have many years of experience.
After watching some of your videos I have to tell you I absolutely love all of your tutorials! Thank you so much for sharing your professional techniques! I love your accent too! Reminds me of some of my aunts I haven’t been able to see for a while.
Thanks so much for your kind comment 😊
So helpful, don't know a thing about sewing but I am so willing to fix my jeans thanks to this video, thank you.
This is a very good tutorial and one I will no doubt use. Thank you so much!
I have a few jeans I was going to give away because they don't fit. This is the perfect solution! I already have the elastic I need, and if I use technique #3 it will only take a little time. Yes yes...I know that #3 doesn't look as professional but sometimes I just want to get my sewing done and not take too much time on it!
Yes. Of course! I showed this option because I think it has value. Most of the time we wear a shirt covering this anyways. Happy sewing!!!

Thank you! I have a few pairs of pants with waists I despair of ever fitting into - but the hips and thighs fit fine. This is such a great way to make them wearable! I confess I'll probably take the easiest approach, but wow, you make all three look very good!
Thanks 😊 😊😊
Absolutely loved your voiceovers and the project. I listened carefully to every word. Your voice is very listenable. You are well spoken. Thanks for your time.
Thanks so much 🥰
Oh yes, that's good to mention. I also loved the clear articulation and that what is explained, relates to what we see...that's a natural teacher 💐
Yes yes 😅 and yes!!! That's awesome! Real Boss work!! I love ❤ all 3 ways! Thank you so very much 💖 for sharing your skill set with this online community. Yay!! 😅😅😊 May God continue to bless the work of your hands. ❤
I would use either way. I already added fabric to a couple of pants. I used very tight black underwear that I couldn't wear because the stretch material was too strong. It works, but it isn't pretty because I made it up as I did it. I only wear over blouses, so no one sees. Thanks for this.
Brilliant.
Thanks for your suggestion 😊
😊😊
Really enjoyed this video. Wish I could sew as well as you do😊 Thank you for showing🤗
Excellent demonstration. Great job👍
Thanks so much for sharing this!
I like the first one for the professional look but the second one would be good enough for me. Excellent work!
Perfect. Thank you so much for your tutorial.2 is my choice
Great work. I would probably do the second one ,because I'm lazy, lol. Thank you for showing this.
This is exactly what I was looking for! Very useful technique, no wonder there are over 21,000 likes! Thank you
This video showed up in time. I needed to extend my son’s pants and wow 🤩 you done an excellent job displaying how to do this. I am now going to try it myself. Thank you for sharing. ❤
Glad it was helpful!
THANK YOU SOOO MUCH! Even for some of us who can sew, this is a great way to keep the clothes that you love , and clothing no longer comes with seam allowance, making alterations hard to do. Thank you.🎉
Glad it was helpful! Thanks 😊
Really appreciate you making these videos (also the lovely jean modification that added patterned fabric!)
Glad you liked them! Thanks so much for your support 💕
Thank you for this video. You explained both steps very well...
I love 💗 your videos! I only wish I knew about this sooner!! You're a great teacher... wish I lived near you, 😿I would love to watch and learn!!
Thanks so much for your comment 😊
Dr.Elizabeth - I never realized how important it is to have a serger machine and chalk and a real ruler - makes the work much more professional
Wow that's awesome! I'm considering this for my work pants! Thank you for sharing!
Oh! You are very welcome 🙂
I loved watching you sew and your voice is so calm and reassuring! thanks :-)
Thank you 🥰
Amazing. Very helpful. I have soo much to learn.
Beautiful work. U make it look so easy. The “easy way” is what I was gonna do before I found you. Thanks !
🥰🥰🥰
I want to thank you so much for your RUclips channel . I am a first timer my granddaughter got me this little sewing machine for Christmas and I am learning how to sew OMG you really show me how to sew my old jeans that didn't fit . I did yours step by step and now I have 3 pairs of jeans 👖Oh I got a medium sewing machine now .. can't wait to see more of your stuff .
Aweee 🥰 I'm so glad, comment like this, inspire me so much. Thank you 💞💞💕
I'm a beginner sewer and I got this video right after a friend came home asking for a repair of her pants... I got an idea from your video on how to fix the problem. Allah bless you and to you channel. Thank you
Thank you so much. I used your method to allow my favourite linen trousers to still fit my aging and spreading waistline. They are comfortable to wear again, I am so happy...
I'm so glad you were able to fix your pants! Cheers 😊
Now I don’t have to throw out my favourite jeans. Thanks so much.
Thank you very much for the clear and precise instructions!
My pleasure 🥰
Fantastic. Exactly what I was looking for. Thank You.
Thank you so much for another amazing video. This looks fairly easy, but I like the one where you replace the pocket, the best. Thanks again 😊
Thanks so much 😊
Love it!!! I always find something new with your videos! Thank You
Thanks so much 🥰
Both it’s good to know both ways, thank you. X
I love your videos thank you so much for sharing your talent!
amazing!! thank you for the clear instructions and great video!
My pleasure 🥰
Your videos are so great! Thank you. :)
really good, tutorial is clear
I wish I thought of this long ago I’ve lost so many jeans to weight gain and now it’s happening again . I’m going to try this and save the ones I still love :) thank u so much for this tutorial!
1 and 2 options are really nice! Thanks for sharing
Thank you for your input! 🥰
This is so incredible, wow!
This was so informational and it’s so over my head 😭 I bought some very cute pants that are just way too small!! I’ll be watching this video a million times trying to learn how to fix them haha
The three of them are lovely and professional! Thank you for sharing your experience and talents 😊
My pleasure 😊 Thanks for watching!
Perfect timing. I have some jeans I kept to hope to be able to wear again . They fit just to the zipper yet still a little snug.Your tutorial showing the addition of the elastic....thank you for sharing.
New subscriber.😊
You got this! 🥰🥰🥰
Thank you for doing this easy to follow video - very helpful!
Glad you enjoyed it! 😊
Thank you. Your explanations are comletely clear and so clever!
🥰🥰🥰
So glad I found this video! A friend of mine asked for help to enlarge the waist of a pair of suit pants because he now has an ileostomy. He needs more room in the waist for comfort, and to allow for expansion throughout the day as the bag fills. This alteration will not show because the suit jacket will cover it. He specifically requested elastic if at all possible, so I believe this will work.Thank you so much. You are an excellent teacher!
Glad it was helpful! 😊
Thank you so much for your great video! 👍 you have the gift for explaining very clearly step after step! I used to be a professor so I know what I am talking about! I am a very bad sewer so I will pick the easiest way to make my jeans 👖 wider. I am also relieved to know
that I am not the only one to put on weight at the weast even though I am slim but in my seventies! Congratulations again 👏
Thanks so much! 🥰🥰🥰
been looking for this . thank you for making this video
thank you so much for these handy technics, clear and precise explanations. I will definitely try on a pair of trouser, probably the easiest way, but I feel comfortable with the other way too which is not too difficult. Thanks for your time
🥰🥰🥰
A wonderful tutorial!!!
I look forward to more of your lessons!!!
More to come! Thanks 💕
Such a helpful teaching video, well explained too - thank you!
Great video! I plan to use your simple method.
I like option 1 but I do see the advantage of saving time in option 2 and it allows me to be a lazy sewer which I am sometimes.
Thanks for the tip!
My pleasure 🥰 😊
Thank You!! I will do the easy one 🥰
Thank you for the demonstrations. I have 5 pair of jeans to expand the waist on and you saved me. They turned out great and were easy to do
I’m so glad! Thanks for letting me know 🥰
Much thanks for this tutorial - you are an excellent tailor!
Thanks so much 🥰
Lovely. Well done. Sewing is easy to see. Thank you!
Thank you! 😊
Beautiful!!!!
Beautiful idea
I’m not sure if I can say which I followed, but I got the elastic on jeans and they feel great!🤪 Thank you so much💕
Nice to hear 🥰 Thanks for letting me know!
I love both they are fine keep up the good work thankyou for sharing
I like the last way because its easier but they all look great. Thanks for sharing your techniques
You are so welcome! 🤗
Absolutely genius 😇!!! Love the accent as well!!😍🤣
Great job. I put on a little weight and will be using technique 2 on a couple of pants. Thanks.
This was a clear explanation of all the steps, so educational! When I do a job, I like to do it well, so I definitely preferred the first method - so professional and really the right way. However if I felt pressed for time, I may use the second method which was still had a reasonably clean finish. Thank you for your time, i've subscribed for more 👍
Thank you for subscribing and for your kind words!!
🥰 Well Done! Looking forward to doing this, probably will do #1 as it is a better polished end. If I find it difficult I will switch to #2! Thank You!
Keep the Videos coming...I'll definitely be watching and sharing..👍👍
This is what u tube is all about sharing the good stuff 😊thank you
Glad you enjoy it! 🥰
Hi Thank u very much for demonstrating both options I will try both n see which works for me

Thank you you are very creative
Thank you! I'm going to try #2. 👍🏻
Genialisimo. Gracias 👍💝
Excellent tutorial, I tried the second method and am very happy with the result. Thank You.
Great to hear! Thanks for letting me know 😊
Excellent, thank you. I prefer the look of the first one… hope my skill level will be up to the task.
Brilliant, just great, we have all at some time had to give away a great pair of Jean's that we loved wearing because we put on weight and they didn't fit us any more, hopefully this will be the answer, for me to re love wearing those Jean's again, as a really great pair of Jean's that fits well is hard to find and best of all, your video advice can save me money, I love that, what a great channel, I love sewing, very interesting, I really liked it I subscribed, I gave it thumbs up, I commented and I saved your videos to my playlist, thank you for sharing this and for making the videos, it's so very helpful. Laura in England.

Thank you so much I have learned a lot in your video.
I'm so glad! Thank you 😊
Good job and thank you 👍
Thank you I was able to do the second one on a pair of pants. It helped a lot and made it easy and quick.
Excellent! I'm glad it worked out well 😊
Like both methods
Thank you!
I love how the first one looks but my sewing skills can only handle the third one. So glad that I don’t have to donate my pants now that I can make the waist a little bigger.
You are so welcome! Happy sewing! Cheers
