Love this video. I’m about to tackle my first suit pants hem tonight, and your video has me confident I can pull it off. Thank you!

thanks. You made this really simple.

@amandavandoorn6477 8 месяцев назад

This was exactly what I needed! My son is still growing so putting a cuff on his dress pants means I can I cuff them and even let the hem out as he gets even taller!

Great job, my mother was a tailoress in her day, I wish I had taken more notice of what she did and learn from her.

Thanks, Shae...I'm going to try this-all by hand.My wife won't do it.I buy a 29 in inseam but they are still too long because of high rises on pleated dress pants, and- I must have the shortest legs known to man-Two pair of expensive wool cuffed pants, which of course be dismantled b4 anything else

Hello, and thank you very much for this video - I followed the instructions and succeeded because your instructions are so clear and easy to follow. I now have turn ups on new Scottish Tweed Trousers and they look fabulous. Thank you again.

@maryhammond6959 Год назад

This is such a great video, thank you very much! How do you handle the hem if there is any taper in the trouser leg? I can't get my head around how to angle the hem to enable the cuff to lie flat. Any advice gratefully received :)

@maryhammond6959 Год назад

@@gracie45 Thank you ! I found this video too, but from memory I don't think it's the same construction as a turn-up. However, I just had some turn ups to do on tapered trousers and found that it's exactly the same method as for taking up any tapered trousers. Nothing complicated or special at all!

@joanndutton1896 Год назад

Great tutorial. Thank you so much. It’s my first time doing this. I do have one question. Since you’re only tacking down the two side seems, what keeps the front and back cuffs from flopping down. I am working on a pair of dress pants that are not wool so they don’t stay very well.

@miggy.a Месяц назад

Excellent tutorial as always. I just tried this with some high twist dress pants and after doing the straight stitch my fabric wasn’t lining up. It was lined up when I pinned it but after the straight stitch it seemed to be puckering. Any idea why?

@FreshLimeSquirts 5 месяцев назад

Could you do a video on how to put a very wide cuff on a pair of bell-bottom shaped women’s pants? Kind of trendy now but the last step, stitch in a ditch wouldn’t be enough to hold up a very wide cuff. Thanks in advance! Love the tutorials!

@DonBMW Год назад

This works great when the pant leg opening is not tapered. What is the solution when there is a slight taper and now you have some bunching at the cuff?

@maryhammond6959 Год назад

Hello, I see you asked the same question as I did! Did you find a solution for this issue? I'm still searching, and still can't figure out the angles for a cuff on a tapered trouser leg.

@seekercons4498 Год назад

There’s a video by Gentleman Jim Tailor where he talks about how to handle tapering legs at the end of the cuff instructions video.

@gerryaustin8687 17 дней назад

Hi, Im am brand new to this, when you are done with a stitch, I dont see you use scissors. Does the sewing machine cut your thread automatically when your done???

@pcorona394 4 месяца назад

Excellent instructions! What Yukie model do you use?

@sewshowwithshae 4 месяца назад

I've got a Juki 8100e but Im not sure they make this model anymore. The industry standard Juki is an 8700 but it does not have automatic functions in the pedal.

@jbol2454 8 месяцев назад

Really great explanation and a pleasure to watch, thank you. Is a 1.75 inch cuff ok too?

@beatermatrix5923 8 месяцев назад

Yes, it's okay too, even 2 inch cuff is great and many elegant man (idk if you're a man or woman) strive for 2 inch cuff as it looks very proportionate and stylish. So long story short, don't know worry and experiment :)

What is the name of your bobbin winder?

@sewshowwithshae Год назад

There isn't a specific brand but the one I'm using is linked in the caption and available on Amazon.

@chriskeys8670 Год назад

Can you please do a video on altering the crotch ?

@sewshowwithshae Год назад

Absolutely, we’ve had a lot of requests for this so it’ll be coming soon!

@xlrationmarine Год назад

You are excellent at what you do. I’ve used two seamstresses in Az, both were hacks. I have that same bobbin winder, blink and it’s done. It’s so much better than the one on my machine, and it’s a 1541s.
