This video just showed me how little I know about sewing. I didn't even know you could sew sleeves by removing that cover piece, and I also had bo idea there were such thing as stretch needles. I shall be buying some as I want to add sleeves to a t shirt. Thank you!
Hello! You can totally do this without a sewing machine! Jersey doesn’t tend to fray, so you can cut and assemble the pieces in the same way and instead of machine sewing, hand stitch the seam and then stitch in place. It will take longer than with a machine but definitely doable ☺️
I’m not sure.. I bought this one from a charity shop for the purpose of making the video and then re donated as my son is 18 and it would never fit him! But you can add sleeves to any T-shirt ☺️
having this video first pop up to my question, say seamstress accidentally made a long sleeve into short sleeves, is there anyway to revert it? most likely not i just loved that shirt😭
Oh no! You can revert it, but the sleeves will be a little shorter, because you will have to join the old part of the sleeve back on, you can attach it in a similar way to this video, keep your seam allowance as small as possible to avoid it becoming too short…. Or you could put a little contrast strip around the part it was cut off to join the sleeve back on… without seeing the shirt, I’m guessing in the dark, but if it’s more of a blouse, you could buy a lace joining strip inc or a ruffle at the seam, if it’s more of a t-shirt, then you could use a contrast colour t-shirt to create a stripe around… Hope I’m making sense?! Feel free to contact me by email if you need any other help?
😂😂 I do know what you mean.. but at least you can speed up or skip.. some people like it explained slowly… just trying to find the balance lol.. anyway thanks for the comment it all helps me make the videos better 👍👍☺️
