This 'visible mending' tutorial shows you how to mend a rip in your jeans with a DIY denim patch on the front of the knee, as well as some fun criss-cross embroidery & a blanket stitch border.
This method is great for repairing holes in trousers by hand, no matter how severe.
I hope you enjoy this video!

Odd shape for patch... more stress on patch. Fuller patch would spread out stress.

@mattlepke5960 Год назад

i love this video! but why did you slow it down? i put it in 1.25 and it sounded a lot more human and was still easy to catch everything you said

@daved2403 4 месяца назад

I have several pairs of jeans that need this, but given new jeans are about $15-$20 each, not sure it is worth the time to repair. If there were a quicker way, might be worth it. Thanks

@RokoleeDIY 4 месяца назад

Yeah it depends how much you want your jeans repaired. A sewing machine would be a lot quicker if you often have to repair clothes :)

@margiejones7247 2 года назад

Wouldn't be better to open up the side of the pant leg and do this on the sewing machine? This is a very expensive repair when you count all the time you spent on it.

@RokoleeDIY 2 года назад

Well yes of course, but this is aimed at people who don't have a sewing machine :)

@MsLouisVee 6 месяцев назад

It’s an art. Look up the history of Sashiko. Sometimes it’s not just about function it’s about beauty and art

@AeriyaValkyrja 4 месяца назад

What about putting patches for style on outside of jeans

@RokoleeDIY 4 месяца назад

Absolutely, that's even more fun because you can make the patches any size and shape and don't need to worry about it holding your jeans together!

@staceyb602 Год назад

Thank you for this video! It's exactly what I need to do and I love the shashiko stiching. Would it beok to use iron on denim with the fusible web? I can't seem to find non-iron on. Thank you!

@RokoleeDIY Год назад

Yes, absolutely :) Glad you like the video!

I have a request that I haven’t been able to find. I recently got a pair of jeans that are too long, I want to make them shorter at the knee because it has a beautiful design at the normal bottom of the jeans were you would do the normal hem. So my only option it to cut them at the knee and make them about 2 inches shorter. Can you please do a video of this?? I have searched everywhere and have found nothing on this.

@RokoleeDIY 2 года назад

Hi! Sorry I can't do specific video requests. I don't think that is an alteration I've ever seen someone do before, but would be interesting to try (- maybe try on scrap fabric first?). Look up my video for shortening/hemming jeans and keeping the original hem, as that would be a similar concept but obviously at the knee rather than the hem :)

@MsLouisVee 6 месяцев назад

I found one that mentions your problem. Video by J Stern Designs on hemming jeans by hand. I hope this helps. It’s her video from 2018. She actually shows how to do it.

@nobbleebluess5096 4 года назад

Good job,but does it go off after washing or it stays?

@RokoleeDIY 4 года назад

The stitching will keep the patch securely in place whilst washing :) If you mean the fabric marker, that disappears after washing.

@randalllaue4042 Год назад

Thank you...

@Darthmufin 2 года назад

Sewing thin fabric around stress lines never made sense to me. The holes you make with the needle become new weak points that will stretch, break, and open up as the fabric is stretched making it pointless.

@dystom6968 5 месяцев назад

Not really holes like a drill, as the needle is navigating through a material full of holes, the real stress is any difference between patch and cloth, using a similar patching cloth is the key. Sail makers still patch sails this way - have to take extraordinary stress

@deborahtownsend5042 4 года назад

I don't mean to be rude or to criticize you. Why do people not undo the seam of their pants and when done stitch the seam closed? You know to make it a lot easier to mend.

@RokoleeDIY 4 года назад

True, you could do that... I guess people don't want to go to that extra effort :)

@MsLouisVee 6 месяцев назад

Too much work. Plus people are terrified

@hovawart16 3 года назад

What kind of pliers are you using to draw the needle through the fabric?

@RokoleeDIY 2 года назад

Hi! They're jewellery pliers...flat nose or wire pliers would work best :)

@fredcdobbs823 3 года назад

Very intricate & precise, but that's about four feet of hand sewing - how long might that take?

@Tracker5111 3 года назад

About "this " long.. lol How fast can you sew?

@RokoleeDIY 3 года назад

Upto a couple of hours maybe...put a good box set on :)

@jandmkennedy5 4 года назад

My husband asked me to reinforce the knees of his work pants with a patch or something. He wants them on the INSIDE of the knee. How can I do this without a special sewing machine?

@RokoleeDIY 4 года назад

Hi! You mean a patch on the inside of the jeans? I have a video here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-LwaihzXVnlI.html&lc where I put the patch inside the hole/tear. You could do this then sew whatever pattern you like over the front of the jeans. Make sure you sew to cover the entire area where the patch is so that it is connected to the jeans well all over :)
