Thanks to the algorithm i got to this video on my second attempt to find the best blind hem tutorial. First one was waste of time, this one great. Commenting to boost so others find it quicker:)

@NoVa-eo6cb 4 месяца назад

Same!! Definitely the best blind hem tutorial I've seen. I've looked it up prior to now and the explanation wasn't as good. Loved this one tho!!

@ottermom5285 3 месяца назад

Omg for 20 years I’ve never been able to figure this out! It ended up faster for me to just hand stitch my hems. Thank you thank you thank you!!!

@claudiamiller7730 Месяц назад

Hi! My 2 cents: the pants used in your demo are obviously a high end fabric that has wonderful inherent movement when worn. Turning the hem up without trimming off the excess fabric of the original hem MIGHT not put too much extra bulk at the bottom of the pant leg when using a machine to do the sewing. BUT - to not trim off any excess hem material before creating a new hemline on pants like cotton khakis or everyday knock-around pants has always turned into a bulky disaster for me in over 60 years of sewing. Do it properly by …marking the new hem…release the old hem stitching…trim off excess fabric…then blind hem stitch with the machine, or encase the hem edge with the overlock stitch and finish by hand. Creates a much less bulky hem area. Sorry - just trying to present another method!😊

Thanks and what length of fabric do you leave for future let out or to weigh the pant legs? I just went to Uniqlo and had 2 dress pants hemmed and I think they said the are going to cut off the extra material and leave a bit of material. I felt uneasy about that and asked them to leave 3” of extra material to be safe. Seems like the staff was not that knowledgeable or trained and just wanted to do it the quickest and easiest. But they offer free alterations on their product and of older and without a receipt they charge only $5.

Thank you for the clear and simple instructions. You not only gave the what, but also the why. Great job.

@vforba 22 дня назад

I finally got it after so many years of sewing. Had to get my son's suit pants hemmed just right for his wedding! Much appreciated!!

@michelesnyder1 4 месяца назад

This is by far the best video I’ve seen! Thank you! I was so surprised that I was able to hem my super slippery viscose, ultra wide leg dress pants

@veraorthlieb 3 месяца назад

Good explanation of hemming on a sewing machine. I bought a blind hemmer forty years ago. I've enjoyed having it because its stitches are invisible.

@kaykimble9742 2 месяца назад

This is the best demo and explanation I’ve ever seen! I’ve sewn for many years and have avoided this technique. I’m going to try this. I really appreciated the explanation of the stitch anatomy - 3 stitches then the left hook. Have liked and subscribed after watching this. Look forward to more videos

@cdnpow4852 3 месяца назад

Thank you so much! I have 3 pairs of slacks longing to be hemmed but I was afraid to even attempt them. You've made this look absolutely do-able. Much appreciated 👍

@mariobravo8253 7 месяцев назад

Wow ❗️. Talk About ▪︎ to the Point 👉 ▪︎ well spoken ▪︎ and easily understood 👏

@annecarson8942 Год назад

Thank you! I love your detailed explanations! When I got my first sewing machine as a wedding gift from my mom, the amazingly kind woman at Sears showed me some tips and tricks. The blind hem was one of them. Sadly many things has passed since 1991: Sears, my first sewing machine and my mom! But, the memories remain and are sweet and fill me with joy. Thanks for the trip down memory lane. I still have the sample from the kind instructor and use it as a reference when I hem my husband’s trousers. 😊

@shellyholmes8681 10 месяцев назад

Very helpful. Appreciate showing on actual pair of slacks. I'm hemming several pairs for my father, so this is first time trying this kind of stich.

I tried my first blind hem on my sewing machine today thanks to your wonderful tutorial. The illustrations that came with my sewing machine just didn’t make sense to me. Thanks so much!

Thank you for the very clear and focused closeup of the sewing machine’s needle and the foot meet the fold of the fabric and the extra layer. Great job. Thanks.

Oh I wish I had found this video a long long time ago! Saving this to favorites so that I can rewatch it and teach myself!

@zenabonds9035 18 дней назад

Like all the other comments, I found this to be my moment of truth. I finally cracked the way to blind hem, after watching all the other useless videos, this one showed me how without lengthy talking. I've been hand sewing my hems but now I'm confident that I can blind hem successfully. Thank you

@dejolieesthetics931 Месяц назад

This was sooo simple and concise! I’ve never understood how to blind hem but just started a job where I need to dress well and my new dress pants were too long. Thank you so much for explaining this!

@DawnHartwell-l2f Год назад

THANK YOU! I just could not do this without your help! I was skeptical because I usually subscribe to women's instructions. When you said the words, "turn the hem in on itself" or "turn the pants in on itself" I finally understood. All the drawings in the world could not help me!

@kathleenstoin671 Год назад

Excellent video! Easy to see and follow. Simple explanation with no unnecessary verbiage. I'll save this as a handy reference. Thank you!

@kalok6231 Год назад

This is the best video tutorial I have seen on this stitch! Thank you so much for the amazing zoom in and clear instruction. I've been (going crazy) trying to learn it for one of my hubby's particularly special pants and I haven't been able to grasp the concept of how to line up the folds and where the needle should be landing! You explained it all so well. So appreciated. I'm going to watch more of your videos.

Awesome demo, thanks! I'll definitely practice this to see if I can get good enough to do my own hems 🎉

@lenneyalderfer4955 2 месяца назад

Thank you, good tutorial! Many regular home sewing machines have a blind hem foot available, or can make use of a generic one, as long as it fits the shank of the machine. The foot holds the edge and the fold in place to get the tiny stitch perfectly aligned.

@leeproulx7412 Год назад

That’s going to come in so handy when I do the hems to my suit pants for a family wedding I have to intend. Thank you so much for that.

@teenoso4069 Год назад

Good to know. Could you show or talk about shortening a greatcoat at the hem and sleeves

@AspiringGent Год назад

Just shortening the sleeves?

@teenoso4069 Год назад

@@AspiringGent I purchased an RAF greatcoat c1963. I would say the sleeves (which are cuffed) are 2 to 3 inches too long and the collar to hem is about 8 inches longer than I would prefer. Its more calf length rather than knee (for modern needs). I heard altering could imbalance the look re pockets etc.

@penelopefp 10 месяцев назад

Are there any concerns for wrinkling or puckering? What if the pants are tapered? Does that change anything? It's an excellent video and I get it in theory, but until I do it on my own my brain is still fighting me on how it works. Thanks for giving me the confidence to try!
