Thank you so much, this was exactly the technique I needed for myself. Also you were super clear in your explanations and how to do things and able to see that easily in the video. Godsend. Thank you! 🙏
When you came back from the first adjustment, the little flip the waistband was doing and how it was hanging low made a great detail. Maybe that would be a great way to pair a belt with it in the future!
Thank you so much. I needed this. Just dropped off over 200.00 worth of tailoring and down sizing articles. The sad thing is I could have saved because I know how to sew, just have a fear of trying. You are such an inspiration. Saw your previous video on fears…. I will get it one day. Keep doing what you’re doing, it blesses others.
So awesome! Love the way you made the pant fit on you!!! I’m doing the same with pink huge pants from H&M.. and I needed some guidance on the crotch seam take-in. Thanks for the walk-through. Very helpful!
I I have linen blend pants that too big on the butt / hip area because I don’t have one LOL and but they fit on the waist the waistband is covered elastic inside. I’m built pretty much straight so I have a lot of problems with pants that are curvy how do I take in just that area? Can I just do the crotch area? Also I bought them in tall does tall run big or in that area?
She mentioned that it also can refer to if you have something in the side like her white line that keeps you from just being able to take the pants in form the sides
I need to take in a pair of linen pants I just made and it did not occur to me to just make darts rather than take in the seam, thank for you making this!! I love the idea of the darts rather than messing with the actual shape of the pants in my case
O M G I got a tell You Girl, the way You ha clothe waistband 🤯 Genius ( all of it) the color looks Wonderful on You, Wow, I really like this one, Every time, Have a Wonderful Weekend ♥️🙃
Thank you for this excellent tutorial! You did a great job of explaining and showing how to take in a jumpsuit. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👍🏽❤️💯😲🧐😲🧐🤗 I loved how you extended the seam line down to the hem line. I'm in awe of how you were able to take in the sides, without cutting the white lines on the outside!!! 😲🧐😲 Taking in waistband, sewing it back together and cutting the excess. Fantastic job! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much for your tutorials! I am an “ODD Girl” - pretty much opposite of you, really. 5ft tall, but with long legs, a really short torso, no waist and disproportionately short arms and no shoulders to speak of. (Like a potato with a head and legs.) Meanwhile, I learn sooooo much from you! I have started altering my own clothes to fit and have saved a fortune!
Thank you so much for this video! I so appreciate all the detail you shared about the different stitch settings that you use and measuring tips. Have a blessed day!
Love the tutorial, now I can fix my jumpsuit because I had the same issues with the bottom fit - a long crotch. Do you have a video on how re sew elastic to a waistband?
Thank you for this video. After searching for days this is the first video I've found that shows how to take up a too large pair of pants completely, not just in one area . Excellent explanation on taking in the crotch area that's much appreciated. I look forward to more of your videos.
Ive been inspired to upcycle because of you! I used this diy to resize some pants for my outfit for Beyoncés concert and I got upgraded to onstage VIP by a member of her team who was impressed by my look! It was a magical experience! You really out here changing lives.
My niece just Took up some coral pants that she had prior before she lost all of her weight she took him out behind the pocket in a bit feeling very nicely!
You did it! This with the darting totally helps with the working around fitting when there are pockets. This might be above my grade level. TeeHee! But my question is would it just been easier to remove the pockets, and just sew straight down? If so, can you do a video with this in mind? Because this did still seem to me to be at a difficult level. So the crotch is just basically sewing just higher up into the crotch area. Would it work if I found that area by trying it on. This one included several techniques darting, placing waistband, and fixing a sagging crotch. These came out really nice and they are fitting to the point you eligible to run for a baby got back candidate. I like how you styled it, you really looked cute, but I am not recognizing the top. Thanks for sharing and blessing to you and all in the days to come.
This was specifically for if you wanted to save the pockets just because I’ve done a tutorial on taking in the side seam several times before. It was awhile ago, so maybe I should update it.
@@BlueprintDIY I mean could we just reinstall the pockets after it taken in on the outside seam? You did the tutorial on adding pocket, could that be used here also with moving pockets. Just wonder if that would be easier for those of us not as skilled? Save video for reattaching waistband and crotch alterations.
Stop reading my mind. 😆 This technique can be used for skirts with pockets, but I have the most basic and easy version of taking in a skirt coming in two weeks. 👍🏾
I NEEDED this! If you did a whole basics series I'd be so happy
I’m definitely trying to incorporate them more often. 👍🏾
Great video. But how do you tailor dress trousers with side pockets? I bought a suit and the trousers are 1 1/2 sizes too big for my hips
I just love how you break everything down!!!
Thank you 💕
Thanks!!! Now I can take in my pants instead of replacing them since I’ve lost weight. Thanks so much❤️👍🏽
Hi. Thank you. An option for alternatives. Please continue this series.
Thank you so much, this was exactly the technique I needed for myself. Also you were super clear in your explanations and how to do things and able to see that easily in the video. Godsend. Thank you! 🙏
Thanks so much! 🥰
Learned the hard way about the crotch curve. Yes, a basting stitch.
This is a great video! Thank you for making everything so understandable.
Thank you 💕
I'm learning so much from you! Thank you! Thank you! By the way what machine is this in the vid and is there a mechanical version?
When you came back from the first adjustment, the little flip the waistband was doing and how it was hanging low made a great detail. Maybe that would be a great way to pair a belt with it in the future!
Great tutorial. Thank you!
What to do with my pocket socks if i resize my waist pants and my pocket doesn't look right on the pants?

I’m rooting for you. I know you’ll get there. 💕

How did you know? This is my exact same need “to do”, and almost the same pants color 😊 and mine also has two side pockets.
No way! That’s too perfect!
Thank you for sharing your Art , love your thought process were we can hear what you are thinking and why. You're Awesome!
Yessss I have a pair of scrubs that are a bit too big. I’m small I’m the back any tips would be awesome. Can’t wait to see more videos
Now that was easy peasy!
This doesn't have pockets or did I miss something????
She mentioned that it also can refer to if you have something in the side like her white line that keeps you from just being able to take the pants in form the sides
💙💜💖
Great job! Love it. One tip for the next time, the B77 has a basting stitch, the 21. I have that same machine!
I want to learn more with you
I need to take in a pair of linen pants I just made and it did not occur to me to just make darts rather than take in the seam, thank for you making this!! I love the idea of the darts rather than messing with the actual shape of the pants in my case
Your title read "...with pockets..." so where were they? That's the help I meed because the pants I have have side pockets.
You would take in pants that have side pockets the same way that I took in these. I should have said “side” pockets.
@@BlueprintDIY Oh ok. Thanks. I forgot I asked. 🙂
Nicely tailored 🥰
Thank you 💕
You're so cool and beautiful ♥️♥️♥️
Thank you 💕
Chile! Did you say beginner!?
😆 Yes, I may have overstated a bit. But this is the easiest way to keep your pockets in tact without having to totally take the pants apart.

This is exactly what I needed thx
Thank you for this. I wouldn't have thought to put darts in the front. I took a pair of linen shorts down a size and they look great.
Yayyy!
This was such a great tutorial. Thank you!
Great step by step.Thank you!
I love everything you do. But, I really love your personality and your energy. It’s contagious.
