  • This roll hem answers a question one of my students had when we were in the study collection at the Fashion Institute of Technology recently.
    P.S. TO THOSE WHO PRESUME TO COMMENT ON MY FINGERNAILS BEING TOO LONG--DON'T. I use my nails when sewing. So stop it please.

    I don't often feel compelled to leave a comment on CZcams videos. But I wanted to personally thank you for doing this tutorial. Camera angles were really good, your instructions were extremely clear and concise. Even though I've never tried something like this before, I feel prepared with enough information to give it an attempt and have a decent outcome. Thank you much for taking the time to do the tutorial.

    This is the best tutorial I think I've ever seen on CZcams. Never once did I feel as if I didn't understand something, every single camera view was perfect to show the specific instructions and results, and the explanations were so concise there left no room for misunderstanding. You have an absolute gift for teaching, sir. Thank you so much for this!

      @@user-oo8ei4lj6s seriously, a lot of the times these things are being sewn by underpaid laborers in workshops. Next time you put any clothing on appreciate how well made it is and the fact that every stitch was by a human hand somewhere regardless of how cheap your clothes are.
