New Jeans Sewing Course: Denim Mastery

Use this technique whenever you are topstitching two rows on jeans 👖 Topstitch both rows as one continuous seam. Start and finish at the same spot, forming a rectangle. No need to backstitch. Just overlap and finish with a shorter stitch length. The sides will be hidden inside the seams 👍🏻 #sewingjeans #sewingtips #sewingtutorial

Wohoo, I've reached 100 000 subscribers on YouTube 🥳 A big thank you to all of you who have subscribed and watched my sewing videos over the years ❤️ It's been a long journey, 9 years, and over 200 videos! Looking back, my first videos make me cringe to be honest, I was such a rookie 😀 But it's also been one of my best professional decision, teaching myself to produce high-quality video sewing tutorials with no outside help. Right now I'm applying the skills to make a jeans sewing course that will be released fairly soon if all goes to plan. 👖

Making a statement (sleeve). I made this version of my #gurlitop sewing pattern using a rayon/lycra jersey geometrical print. The print has a little bit of an art deco deco vibe. The long sleeve version is a great option for more festive outfits as we are entering the holiday season 🎉 #indiesewing #gurlitop #sewingwithknits #sewing #handmadewardrobe #thelaststitchpatterns #sewingknits

Want to learn the secret to beautiful topstitching

Want to learn the secret to beautiful topstitching? Then follow these five simple tips to take your stitching to the next level 👌🏼 1. *Use regular thread in the bobbin*. Heavy thread will jam the bobbin on home sewing machines. Instead, use regular sewing thread. The difference is subtle and will be on the inside of your garment, so no one is looking anyways 😊 2. *Use an edge guide presser foot*. Topstitching near a seam or edge is much easier with a presser foot that has a center or edge guide. Most brands offer this presser foot. It may even be included in your kit. 3. *Adjust the tension*. Be prepared to adjust the needle tension when sewing with heavy thread. Balanced tension is when the needle and bobbin thread are tied evenly and not visible on the other side. 4. *Level the presser foot*. A presser foot must be horizontal to form stitches properly. If it tilts, you may face feeding issues and skipped stitches. Use a hump-jumper or fold a piece of fabric to fix this. 5. *Use needles with a larger eye*. My favourite needles are the @schmetz_official Topstitching and Jeans/Denim needles. They are durable and great for topstitching on thick fabrics and layers. Now enjoy the confidence of someone who has mastered the art of topstitching 😀 #sewingtips #sewing #sewingjeans #sewingtutorial #sewingdenim #sewingtrick

It's all in the details 🧵 A closer look at the detailing of the Patou knock-off jeans I made recently. It was so fun mixing traditional dress trouser elements such as back darts and slanted pockets with regular denim techniques. I also added some cotton quilt fabric scraps to the pocket lining and found a beautiful gold button in the bargain bin at a thrift store. Topstitching is actually one of my favourite sewing things to do, which I guess you can tell 😀 And if you want to really excel at making jeans, I can highly recommend my book Sewing Jeans, where I show all my tricks and tips 👖 #sewingjeans #sewing #handmade #sew #sewingproject #sewingjeansbook #memadewardrobe
