  • Welcome to Slew Living! I'm Esther and I sew stuff to support a slow sustainable lifestyle.
    In this video I mention:
    How to mend jeans WITH a sewing machine
    • Mend Ripped Jeans PROP...
    It’s my goal to be uploading weekly again so if you have any video suggestions feel free to leave a comment below, thanks!
    In this video I’ll show you step by step how to mend rips, tears and holes in jeans - but you can use this method for almost any garment! I use the darning method which is completely by hand, so you don’t need a sewing machine.
    If you’re starting to learn about sustainable and ethical living and how to curate a more mindful lifestyle, a great step is to learn how to sew. Mending your own items increases our appreciation for ‘stuff’, so I hope you find something on my channel to spark some creativity.

    Thanks for the information! There is only a tiny hole (3-4 mm) in my jeans. I think that I will find someone else to fix the hole. Your channel is great! Your upbeat, lively personality is magnetic and should attract a lot of subs! You got me to subscribe and I probably will not need your help again! Advice on how to grow your CZcams channel abounds, but nobody ever tells you how important a good personality is. Good luck! dp

    Thank you for taking the time to make this video because you gave such a great explanation of how to mend. I like that you used a regular sewing method and not a fancy knit-crochet method. I'd like to mend my jeans and not have to learn a new hobby. :) The stitch illustration on paper really helped me understand. Thank you again.

    You could also use a heat erasing pen

    The algorithm gods had perfect timing for this video premier! My daughter was begging I re-mend the hole in her jeans. I had used the no-no method and you are right. It did NOT look nice nor did it last! 😭😂

      I'm so glad the timing was right! All the best mending your daughter's jeans this time around!
