great video!!!! my biggest problem is knowing which color thread to use. I don’t want my jeans to look “home” hemmed. I want them to match…any ideas?

Good question sommer! I used a dark navy so that my jeans had a somewhat invisible hem, but the standard is a gold cotton thread - if you take your pair in with you to Jo Ann’s or any place you buy fabric, you can match it to your jeans perfectly!

Sarah,
I need to borrow a chalk pen, an iron, and a sewing machine.
Love,
Ma
