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 ❤
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
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.💓💓💓💓
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.

Please can you also do this for the waist part of your jeans because I have no idea how to make them fit me 😢😂
YES please we would love that
💯💯💯
I Agree
Take the button and put it in the belt hole then button it up
Use a cinch

this might have taken 3 hours but they look great for my first time
jens the best tutor ever
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
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💀
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 🤷♀️
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
I’ve always struggled with this so thank you!!!!
Thank you so much!! I’ve literally never sewn anything before but I was able to hem my pants and I only messed up once 😅
GOSH JEN I LOVE YOU GOT AN UPCOMING CONCERT AND MY BAGGY JEANS WERE TOO BIG YOURE A LIFE SAVER MWAH MWAH MWAH
I have always slip stitched hems of pants. It takes longer, but it's much more subtle.
I’ve never sewn before and you made this so easy to follow! Thank you so much!!! ❤️
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! ^^
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 😄
I DIDNT EVEN REALIZE WHO YOU WERE, just searched up the video and it’s perfect! Tysm!!! 🩷🩷 I have like 8 pairs i gotta do this to 🥹
THANK YOU I DONT HAVE A SEWING MACHINE SO THIS HELPED ALOT
I miss you Jen we love you. This is the best hack ever 💞 now that you made this it's going to be really easy for me . Ily🤟
You can also staple your hem...lol. trust me... It works.
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.💓💓💓💓
Thanks!! Got my kid her first wide leg jeans, but they're too long. This sewing trick with the jeans works really well❤
