In this diy upcycled patchwork jeans tutorial, I will walk you step by step with clear instructions on how to create this look. You will be creating a pair of one of a kind couture jeans that would cost a lot of money if you were to purchase in a boutique or specialty online shop. If you sell these items, these were a top seller for me when I sold online and in my vendor spaces. Best part, everything is thrifted and cost less than $15.00 to make!

Our Dear Ms. Myers: If the denim you are sewing is too thick, or hard to sew, pound the thick parts with a hammer, on a hard surface first. This spreads the threads and makes it easier for your needle to get through! Doing this has saved me many a broken needle or the machine shutting down!!
Thank you! I'm learning that through my awesome viewers!😍
Thank you for that tip! I’m definitely going to try that🤗💕
Oh my goodness. I love love the new moniker, "Our Dear Ms. Myers!" Perfect. ❤
I was taught in a Jean making class from an elderly woman that if you take a hammer and pound the thick bulk in the seams they are much easier to sew. I do it all the time and it makes sewing the very thick parts a breeze.
Love your video and creativity!
I LOVE that tip!! Thank you so much for sharing!🤗😘🤗😘🤗😘
Thanks to you I am back to my happy place, my sewing machine!!! I can't begin to tell you how much it means to me to be sewing again! I just turned 59 and I have been sewing for 51 years!! My amazing grandmother taught me how to sew, starting with doll clothes. When I am sewing I can just feel her beaming with happiness. I think that's one of the reasons I love it sew much!! Thank you again for your beautiful tutorials, they are appreciated immensely.
Aww I love that so much! Have fun!🤗❤❤❤❤
Never thought about children's clothes for patterns!!!
😍❤❤❤❤
Okay... I would not have reconstructed these jeans that way. BUT THANK GOD 😊 you made a tutorial before I got my hands on this project🤣! YOU are a life saver 🙌 ❤️.
Making these ,can't wait ❤
Have fun!!🤗💖💖💖
So looking forward to trying this for my daughter. I have several pieces of actual 60's and 70's fabrics that are leftovers from other projects. I think those will make great patches. Also I have a couple with flowers that will work well like yours. You create the cutest, fashionable items. Thank you so much for teaching this. All your tips are very much welcome and helpful.
Sounds like you will be having fun!!!🤗💖💖💖💖💖
How cute are these jeans!! Got to try a pair. Always thanking you Tracie for sharing your wonderful ideas. Your way of teaching and explaining your process is so understandable.
I appreciate that so much,thank you!!🤗💞💞💞💞
Love them .. I do a lot of upcycling of jeans and have taken out the seams .but definitely love the idea of not the inseam and fraying where it is sewn in the leg .. super cute .
Thank you so much 🥰🥰🥰🥰
YoU aRe so CrEaTiVe, love… LoVe …L♥️VE your tutorials

Also, I enjoy and like you tips.

I like this a lot. I don't like the added sunflower or the uniform placement of the patches. But overall a great idea but a few changes and it would be super awesome.
Sooo cute! I have a bunch of jeans that have wear to them that I'm gonna try to do this with!

Hello friend. You're very welcome. I do have a channel on TH-cam. Cloth dolls are my thing. They do not look like cloth dolls...I don't give much attention to the channel... my grandson set it up and he posts the dolls there, but I'm mostly found on Facebook for them and in doll clubs.
If you type in realistic Cloth dolls on TH-cam they should come up. Some videos are very old. But there are Recent ones in the last year or so. But FB is mostly where I'm found Under my name. I'm not mad about not making them😁. I like to look nice...AND YOU MY FRIEND KEEP ME DOING JUST THAT❤️🥰. YOU ARE A GEM 💎
I will go check these out!

This is just genius, I have always wanted to make patch jeans like these. With all of your awesome techniques I am making the wardrobe of my dreams. Thank y0u sooo much!
Aww thank you so much!!!💞💞💞💞
I was excited to hear you mention the larger sizes. I've often thought the same. I have several garments in 2, 3, & 4xl that are screaming for decoration. Lol I've had them stashed for years. It's time they get what they deserve 😁
You inspire me so much, thank you🥰
Aww thank you so much! Have fun!🤗💕💕💕💕
Your best tutorial 🏅
Aww thanks so much, Steph!!💞💞💞
Great ideas, thanks. Believe I will do mine a little different by using decorative stitches on my machine.
Have fun!🥰🥰🥰
Thanks
My 1st time doing regenerated denim! Plan to make a denim purse as well!
Sounds like you're having fun!!🤗😘💞
Fantastic 🤩🤩🤩🤩🙌🙌🙌🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thank you so much 💞💞💞💞
My trick for sewing on denim when I dont have blue thread is gray thread. Its great. Old thread is probably rotten and wont last long especially in the wash cycle. Its easy to test the thread strength. Grab a length of it and pull it hard. If it doesnt break, I use it. Anything I intend to sell must not fall apart, but if its for me then I may risk it if I cant leave the house. OK lets keep sewing. Great project. Lavoie Boho NC USA 2023
Great tips!!! Thank you for sharing!🤗💖💖💖💖
Great idea sewing the fabric together first. I usually do each piece separately but your way is much better.
Thank you so much 🤗💕💕💕💕
I'm home with Covid and your channel is great for binge watching! LOL @@tmyershandmade978
Coooolll.
Awesome thank you
My pleasure 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

Hi my name is Leonie. I am from South Africa. I love your tutorial i am new to upcycling how do i see your older jeans please Kind regards
The other jeans in the pictures are just past examples of this style, no tutorials of those.🤗🤗🤗🤗💞
We used to wear real patches over the holes on our garments; but, we didn't want anyone to notice. I always hated the patches that Mom ironed on; because, those patches made the fabric stiff (and those patches showed). Time changes everything. We just watched you sew patches where no holes were. Then we watched you make many holes with a box cutter; and, you sewed dark patches to the backs of all the holes to make sure they showed. You worked hard to make that nice pair of jeans look ragged. Yep, time changed everything. Patches and the ragged look are high fashion now.
It's really not that new of a concept 🥰🥰🥰
Isn't it funny?! Me too. I'm halfway in between. Can't quite bring myself to shred good jeans, but I will definitely be looking for old all-cotton jeans at Thrift stores because I have a box of women's stretch jeans, sounds like those won't work as well.
Traci, i wonder if you could figure out and teach us how to re-size shirts. You made it work with jeans so I'm hoping you can do it with shirts!
I think that's a great idea, I will see what I can come up with🥰🥰🥰🥰
Thanks! There are so many men's flannel shirts or just larger women's tops at garage sales. It would be fun to know how to use them! Meanwhile I've got patches going into a pair of thrifted jeans, and am widening the calf part of the leg for a flare. You really make things do-able with your teaching and fun attitude. Thank you Traci.
So can you XO one if the jeans were a little to small on top!.this turn out super cute
🤗💕💕💕💕
Hello, im thoroughly enjoying binging your videos as ive just found you and am a new subby. I was wondering if you are familiar with " free motion stitching?"
This feature enables you to walk freely or sketch around shapes as though you are drawing. Its so much easier thsn straight stitching around difficult shapes. You could have easily, after having quilted your panel, to stich around each rectangle isolating each. It would still fray nicely and would keep it from being open in spots as it was not sewn down entirely, which may have been your intention. Another utuber, "stitches by julia" will give you an idea of what i mean. I believe it will open up a new world for you. I do LOVE how youve gone about this piece, as it was a new way unfamiliar to me!! I just wanted you to know of another way that you can incorporate into your work. Oh, it also allows you to do
"Sketch painting" which again opens up new doors of creativity. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE YOUR WORK, THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR EXPERTISE!! ❤
I appreciate that and I'm intrigued! I will check out Julia!🤗💞💞💞💞
cute
🥰🥰🥰
Very cool! I have distressed jeans that the strings have broken and now there is a gaping hole. Most jeans it seams now are stretchy and that is what these are. Can you do this with jeans that stretch?
Sure, but stretchy jeans don't fray as much🥰
Love how the jeans turned out. Love all your transformations. Question-would taking out side seams work as well as cutting seams?
Thanks so much. As long as you have space to sew them back together without hitting rivets.😊😊😊
Thanks for your reply. I look forward to your next video.
@@diannemount6524 🤗🤗🤗🤗
Кайф🎉
🤗💕💕
I made these and they are amazing! I have a question. How do you adjust the waistband if the jeans are too big in the waist?
I just so mine smaller after they are cut open.
🎉❤
Love this video!! Do you mix different fabrics or stay with 100% cotton? And, if you mix fabrics, are there any helpful guidelines for laundering? Thanks, in advance, for your response. 😁
I've mixed fabrics, but use all natural fabrics when I dye my items. Laundering depends on the specific item. I recommend oxyclean detergent for vintage items. Most often on my garments, I turn them inside out, wash on gentle cycle in cold water and line dry 🥰
!ove, love !ove! 😍 how do you press the seams on the patched panels? Are they open, like I was taught in seeing classes?.or do you flip to one side? Or...?
I just press the top side and let the seams fall where they may🤗💖💖💖
Awesome! Getting back into it and I'm uptight, to say the least.
Measuring every thing like I'm a lab scientist!
@@JebraTurner lol a lab scientist!!! To me this is art, I would lose my patience trying to make everything perfect.🤗💖💖💖💖
Hi, I'm definitely going to try this.. but I was just wondering, is it necessary to open up the jeans all the way to the waistband? Why couldn't you just do it up into the pocket area. Wouldn't you still have enough room to sew it, or is there a reason you do that? Also, would it look okay if you did a zigzag Stitch around each rectangle instead of doing the lines up and down?
Sure a zig zag would be great! You do whatever your heart desires! The reason I cut all the way up is so the final seem on the outside is smooth, without bunching or puckering. Have fun!🤗💕💕💕💕💕
So... I'm not a beginner 'sewer' by any means, BUT, I haven't sewn in a while.. would this make an OK 'beginner' type project? I would LOVE to make some of these for myself with old jeans.
Yes, I think this would be a great one to get the ball rolling 🤗❤❤❤❤
I have a question I have lost a lot of weight and have a bunch of jeans I love and thought it would be fun to do some of your funs stuff. I like the legs being baggy I don't like the waste being big and I'm not a fan of belts how do you recommend bring in the waste of the pants of the jean with out it looking wonky?
That's tricky, I may have to study this and do a video. Maybe viewers here can help.🤗💞💞💞
There are some good TH-cam on taking in the waist of jeans. I think the key is that you do need to remove/shorten the waistband. I did it at the back - Seam rip the waistband but don't cut it off. Then take several tucks across the back of the pants. Try them on! Once the body of the pants fits,trim the waistband siren and sew it back on.
Just curious would it be easier to open the inner seams
For me, I think the outer seams seem easier.🥰🥰🥰
greetings from Pennsylvania USA my daughter is size 16, what is the size of men's jean that I need? many blessings 😘
She just needs to measure her waist size and use that measurement.🥰🥰🥰
Would it be possible for you to provide me with the name of the designer that you got the copyright strike from? I.e. screenshot of the picture of the pants that you did but I can’t find a picture and I’m not sure if that picture got deleted from my devices when the video got removed? I have no idea but if you could just provide me with the name of that designer, then I can look it up online. Thank you for all of your hard work! Blessings from Kansas.🥰
Sure, it's Magnolia Pearl🥰🥰🥰🥰
