A small tip if you don't want the thread to be noticeably visible on top, rather than running or backstich use a catch stich or cross catch stitch. It works very well and looks very neat. A little time consuming though. Can be use on any hem pants, arms neck etc.
Thank you for this video! I used to hem my pants and alter them myself, when I was younger. I had to relearn bc I’m trying to teach my daughters to do the same to save their pants from dragging on the ground. So I appreciate this so much! Thank you!!!
Loved this! Was so useful. Thank you from all the fellow short girlies out there. Also, just checked out your music, absolutely in love! Clean up in aisle 4 is officially my jam. You're so talented! Sending love from South Africa ❤
I was looking for this! This was really helpful for me since i recently bought a pair of pants that are otherwise perfect but a way too long. Than you! ^^
Wow this worked amazing. I was so shocked at the end result. Thank you so much for posting this video. It really looks professional, now I can start on my son's jeans.💓💓💓💓
You're adorable! I'm an old short girl, so I've been dealing with this for 62 years! I've been buying stuff from Shein for about 8 months now and EVERY pair of pants is waay too long! I'm not going through the hassle of returning, so I need to undertake a mass hemming event. I'm planning to use iron-on hem tape, as I'll never get around to actually sewing 8 pairs of pants, thanks for making it look so easy, tho'!
The black pants are just trousers and you’re doing a pretty good job and if I was your mother or grandmother or somebody in your life, I would go get you a portable, sewing machine they make them you know
Love your ideas & method. I’m short too so always have a problem with length - what about something just to hold up the extra length like a decorative elasticized scarf of some sort? Just wondering if you’ve ever given that any thought?
I tried the first way it worked great,but is there a way to prevent the pants from flipping inside out while you wear them? Idk if this makes sense but when i wear them they flip and the inside of the pants is visible
Hi! So I have these really nice cargo pants from AE, but they’re too long for me. The thing for these pants though, I have to somehow hem them from the top? They have this specific design that’s supposed to go over your knee, but if I hem it it would look weird (basically I need to raise them up) is there a way to increase the rise on pants?
Hopefully you’ll get better at sewing. I hope your future is not as a seamstress😂 all those little details that you think people don’t notice, people do notice. they notice a lot and it will say a lot to them about you, so I think you should just learn to do it right or take it to a tailor. Remember, God is in the details. details matter so don’t just be riding roughshod over Life’s little details like you do. My mother would have slapped my hand if I did such sloppy stitching.

You’re such a girls girl for posting this ❤️ I used the first method for some wide leg pants that pooled around my 5’1 self and it was PERF

Please can you also do this for the waist part of your jeans because I have no idea how to make them fit me 😢😂

I Agree
Take the button and put it in the belt hole then button it up
Use a cinch

Hey girl! Loved the video, made me wanna try this with the pants I've been cuffing
I'm tall and have a couple pairs of pants that are too long. Gunna give this a try. I guess whether you're short or tall we can use your video 🤷♀️
did anyone notice that step 2 for the first pair of pants was shown twice? 1:17 & 1:47
yess hahha i was so confused
Yep I did tooo
Yeah!! Hahah I kept replaying it because i thought I missed something
An amazing video. Your video are amazing and you are an amazing and awesome person and I'm so proud
Hi, I’m a moa too 🫢
And I love Jen~
I have always slip stitched hems of pants. It takes longer, but it's much more subtle.
Thanks!! Got my kid her first wide leg jeans, but they're too long. This sewing trick with the jeans works really well❤
As a 5'8 woman, pants that are too long will never be a problem for me. But here I am anyway...
im 5'1 and i can never find jeans that actually fit💀

If you’re ready to commit you can also just use hemming tape. Super easy, quick iron on top and you’re done! And no ugly seams 😄
Is it hard to stitch blue jeans?
You’re very fashionable Jen! ❤❤
Can you teach us how to make the waist part stitching
I tried the first way it worked great,but is there a way to prevent the pants from flipping inside out while you wear them? Idk if this makes sense but when i wear them they flip and the inside of the pants is visible
Do you have a video like this but with a pant leg that has a bottom slits on the sides ?
awesome video! thank you

Can you put a link for these pants too?
LOVE THIS!! THANK YOU SO SO MUCH!!

You can also staple your hem...lol. trust me... It works.
When you say safety pins, is there a trick to hiding the metal?
I was asking the cream/beige colored one.

Why don’t you just learn the hemming stitch? the last pair looks terrible
Short torso, long legs , but not long enough for the trousers in the shops 🥲😅. 2 pairs of trousers to hem 🙌
First
God I need a girlfriend, my jeans are never gonna look good
