  • Hello friends! In today's video, I wanted to show you how to make a eurohem on jeans (again). I had made another video but the lighting and sound were off and I wasn't too proud of it. I really hope you found my instructions easy to follow and that this helps you make a perfect hem while keeping the original hem! If you find this video useful, please don't forget to give this video a like, comment, share and subscribe! Your support means the world to me!

    From Maria my mother taught me to embroider when I was 7. I am now 71, I love to sew. Watching you sew is a joy. Sewing takes patience. And love of fabric and all things that make up the Art of sewing. This shows in your excellent work. Carry on.☺️

    I just finished shortening 6 pair of jeans for a customer! I wasn’t thrilled with the result so I thought of you and I watched this video and loved your technique! I didn’t cut the excess off I turned it inside and I used the iron on hem tape. Not sure why but some places did not stick! Perhaps I didn’t keep the iron it long enough! I love all your videos!

    whenever I do the Euro Hem I finish it completely in a blue that blends in with the jeans, then I topstitch it with the gold thread after. mostly I use the American hem or just the plain jeans hem. I like your trick of securing the seams first so they don't move.

    • @DowntownTailoring
      @DowntownTailoring  ปีที่แล้ว

      Making the top stitch first with the blue thread is such a great idea. It will make it easier to make the final top stitch. Thanks for sharing 😊

    My teacher always called euro/american/original the same thing... "Eurohem" and so do I. Personally I prefer what you call "American Hem" but I leave the choice up to my customer so I have an example of both at the front counter to show what each look like.

  • @carolynsorah2819
    @carolynsorah2819 ปีที่แล้ว

    Am I missing something? Why not just cut the jeans leaving room for them and then turn fabric under twice for a New hem? What's the advantage of using old hem?
    Video was very well done. Thank you!

    • @DowntownTailoring
      @DowntownTailoring  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Carolyn! I can see your point perfectly, however, it has become very fashionable to keep the discolorations of the original hem. I think the following video might illustrate better the point. It does have a nice history of the jeans at the beginning but your question is answered in full after, this. So you can skip the beginning.

    @onamissionize 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    If you cut on the length the pants are supposed to be then sew using a 3/8 seam line, when the hem part is added back on it adds an additional 1/2 inch or more depending on the width of the original hem. There could be a difference of the finished hem length making it longer than the desired finished hem. This is confusing to me.

    • @caraid9263
      @caraid9263 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      The cut hem is kind of acting like bias binding- it’s wrapping around the edge, not adding length (say you stitch 1/2 away from edge, the hem folds over to cover that 1/2 “ rather than extending past it so the length stays the same

    You did a great job...but the whole point of a euro hem is not to remove the original factory stitching of the hem

    @madeleineschwartz7840 8 วันที่ผ่านมา

    Hello again.....this is a fantastic video !!! I may be overthinking this.... but when I go to cut the jeans,,,,,,, do I cut on the new hem line or 5/8th above....to allow for the piece I am sewing back on?...Hope this make sense......

    • @DowntownTailoring
      @DowntownTailoring  7 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Hi! It totally makes sense. The problem is that if you cut 5/8" above of the finished line, you won't have then the seam allowance that you need to attach to the new hem.
      Here are my calculations considering that most of the modern hems are stitched at 1/2" instead of the 5/8" that it used to be.
      From the hem line up, you have to attach the hem at 1/2" (sewing line)
      Then you need seam allowance (down) that will be 3/8"
      Still we have 1/8" that is a little too long, which 1/16" will be for the sewing thick fabric shrinkage and 1/16" is what it is a little too long. You caught me on this one 😉
      I don't try to correct it because I find 1/16" negligible. But, in honor of the truth, the perfect measurement for cutting should be 1/16" above the desired length if you use a 3/8" seam allowance. And 3/16" above the desired length if you use 1/4" seam allowance for sewing.
      As these differences won't really change the overall look of the finished pants, I try not to mention them to not confuse the overall audience. But I'm glad to be more specific when more deeply analysis is required. There are other nuances to these measurements.
      You gave me the idea to make a video clarifying this and other details that might be very important for some of the viewers.
      Sorry if this answer is too long. I hope it makes sense. Let me know if you have further questions
      Cheers 🙂

    Which is a more accurate measurement? Using a persons inseam measurement for altering pants or the outseam?

    • @DowntownTailoring
      @DowntownTailoring  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      That’s a good question. I can tell you that with Today’s fashion, measuring got very tricky. If everyone wore the pants on the same way with the crotch on the right place, the inseam measurement would be the best one. But all pants sit differently. At my store we measure one by one on the customer. I hope this helps.

  • @laineywright2696
    @laineywright2696 ปีที่แล้ว

    This is a beautiful technique, but I prefer to just hem. If you gain a little weight, the pants get shorter, so I can't lower the hem again.

    • @DowntownTailoring
      @DowntownTailoring  ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes. I can see your point. Anyways, after a few washes, the regular hem will start to discolored and look very similar. Cheers!
