Sometimes, ripped jeans (intentionally) can become TOO ripped! When that happens, the whole knee is out! But there is no need to throw them out, it can be easily repaired, just as I show in this quick tutorial:

Repairing Rips on ... Ripped Jeans!

The repair blends right into the distressed vibe of the ripped jeans!

I took YOUR advice, concerns and feedback from the recent video where I tried an embroidery loom to try a worn out jeans crotch patch to make a patch that is just as strong and durable as it is aesthetic!

Go check it out and let me know which style you prefer more!!

Did you know that you can make jeans BIGGER?

In my newest video, I show a unique way of making the jeans waistband bigger. Please let me know if you prefer the colourful pattern or the jeans material for the insert … not sure

Go watch my newest video over on my new channel to see how I did a hem on this huge ruffled gown! It took a lot of time and effort but I think the results look so chic and fashionable!

Third time’s the charm! One of my first YouTube videos was about taking in the waist of a pair of jeans, but the reactions were mixed—I didn’t explain the steps clearly, and it was way too fast. So, I made a step-by-step tutorial that I felt was much better, but again, the response was mixed because I didn’t do the voiceover myself.

This time, I’ve redone the video, fixing my previous mistakes. Check it out and let me know in the comments what you think. Thanks!

Let me know if you’d like any tweaks!

Hello my friends! I got a mini embroidery loom sometime ago and never use it until now. Come with me to try this loom and see how well it works

It warms my heart to work with heirlooms. This skirt belonged to my customer’s grandmother, and I had the honor of shortening it for her while repurposing the extra leather material into two makeup pouches for other women in her family. Such a beautiful way to keep memories alive!
