THE JEANS CHOSE VIOLENCE | ORIGINAL HEM TUTORIAL AND SEWING RESCUE

Be sure to check the links in my description to find some of the tools mentioned in the video! I set out to do one perfectly normal thing: shorten a pair of jeans while keeping the original hem. And for a while, everything was going beautifully. I carefully took apart the original hem, measured, trimmed, pinned… you know, actual responsible sewing behavior. Then my seam ripper slipped. And I cut the freaking jeans. 😑 So this tutorial became a two-for-one: how to hem jeans and keep that perfectly worn-in original hem AND how to recover when you accidentally put a hole where a hole most definitely was not invited. I left the whole mess in because sewing tutorials where everything goes perfectly are lovely—but that is apparently not the ministry I’ve been called to. 😂 Come for the original-hem tutorial. Stay for the denim emergency surgery. 🧵 Ninja Needleworks — real sewing, real mistakes, and figuring out how to fix them. A quick heads-up: Some links below are Amazon affiliate links.
