  • In this video we will show you how to fix torn seam by hand.
    ►First find a matching color thread and thread the needle. Make a knot at the end of the thread. Push the needle through the fabric and pull it between the two threads to make a knot. Then start sewing (one stitch on one side and one on the other side of the fabric). Make sure that the stitches are in parallel and evenly distributed. Otherwise the seam won’t be straight. Try to sew on the same place where the original stitches have been. Finally pull the thread and make a securing stitch at the end. If the stitches are uneven try to stretch the fabric few times. In the end the seam will be almost invisible.

    What do you do with the loose piece of thread of the original stitch. And if you fix the hole will it prevent other parts from coming undone?

    • @ArtOfClay
      @ArtOfClay  Před 3 lety +3

      I haven't touched the thread from the original seam. You can try to start the hand sewing 1-2 stitches before the beginning of the hole so you will fix the original thread.
      PS. I wear this vest, and the seam is in very good condition so far, it has not come undone.

    It seems to me that it would be tighter and neater if the thread were pulled after each stitch. Also this garment seems to be a heavy fabric so that would make it harder to close tightly. The needle used was not flexible at all and rather a large size so maybe that could have added to the end result. But, always glad to see how others do their sewing projects.

    There’s a rip on a crotch of my bf’s work jeans. So do I do this inside out of his pants or out? Please reply soon. He gets back from work in like an hour. Please. Thanks! 🧡

    • @ArtOfClay
      @ArtOfClay  Před 3 lety +2

      I'm sorry that I'm not on time.
      Depends on how exactly the pants are torn.
      In the video, I sew directly on the right/outer side of the clothing. ( Because to get to the inside, I had to rip off the lining. ) When you do this seam, you should pass the needle through the holes from the original seam. Finally, when you are pulling the thread, it will become invisible. It's easier to make on the outside /right side of the clothing.
      * In your case i guess it may be easier to sew from the inside, using a simple running stitch or a back stitch. But I guess this seam will also get the job done.

    Hi do you not need to care about the ripped thread that caused the hole? Won’t it continue to unravel?

    • @ArtOfClay
      @ArtOfClay  Před 3 měsíci +2

      Hi there! Something has to be pulling the thread, or there should be a lot of stress exactly where the thread is torn for it to continue unraveling. However, it's best to start the new seam in a way that overlaps one or two stitches of the torn one. This will ensure that everything stays in place.

    Would it help to iron it first to find the edges of the seam all the way up?

    • @ArtOfClay
      @ArtOfClay  Před 5 měsíci +1

      It really depends on the fabric and the size of the hole. In the video, I was sewing a padded jacket, so the ironing may not work for it. Giving ironing a try could be helpful, especially if the holes from the sewing needle are not visible and can't guide the new seam. Alternatively, stretching the fabric slightly might also help, as the ends could curl up inside, mimicking how they need to be sewn together. If you try the ironing method, I will be happy to hear your feedback.

      Haha, I totally get what you mean! You're not alone - I often feel the same way when I have to draw something. It's tricky to figure out where the sun is coming from and where the shadows should fall. However, with practice, we can improve and find that balance between precision and creativity. Keep at it! 😄

    • @ArtOfClay
      @ArtOfClay  Před rokem

      There is an elastic thread, but I am afraid that it may gather the fabric around the hole if you use that technique. The repair depends on the clothing. If you can see the seam on the inside, you can use an overstitch or another stretchy seam and fix it on the inside.
      The technique shown in the video is most useful if there is a lining sewn to the backside.

    • @ArtOfClay
      @ArtOfClay  Před rokem +1

      Hi there! I'm sorry to hear that you're still confused. Here are some step-by-step instructions that might help you:
      First, thread a needle and make a knot at the end of the thread. Then, make the first stitch somewhere on the fabric, so the knot will be hidden inside (you can insert the needle in the hole and make it inside out). You just need to secure the thread somewhere.
      Next, you have to start sewing on the same line where the existing seam is. You have to make one stitch on the left side then the next one would be on the right side (in a zig-zag manner).
      To make sure your new seam is in the right place, inspect the fabric to find the small holes from the previous seam. If you can see the holes, you can use them to make the new stitches. Also, you can use sewing chalk and draw a straight line to connect the end of the seams (the empty space where you will be sewing). This might help if there are no holes left on the fabric. Also, you may lay flat the cloth and gently stretch until the hole is closed. The sides of the hole would be touching each other, and you can see where the seam has to be. Your seam must be aligned with the original one.
      I hope these instructions make sense and help you with your sewing project.
