Welcome to my channel. Thank you so much for subscribing to my channel; I am grateful! My subscriber list is growing, which means you like the content that I'm putting up. That makes me happy because I love to sew and would love to encourage others to do the same!
I learned to sew when I turned 18. Just a few months after I had my first child.
My experience varies from children's clothes, home dec, women's clothes, bridal, and alterations for men and women.
I am a problem solver! so I dabble in some inventions/designs for issues people deal with.
If you like my videos and find them helpful please share them on your social media.
Thank you,
Angie

Ngl i like your way of saying things. I love it😭🥰
Nice. Thanks for explaining and sharing.
Ty❤❤❤❤❤
I appreciate your teaching GOD BLEESS you
Thank you very much!!!
God bless you! 😂 Such a simple and helpful instruction!!
Yeah, it was too long for me, but still very useful! I skipped parts
In the 1960's a neighbor had an idea to for extra income for her and my mom, by her drumming up business and my mom hemming pants and doing alterations. My mom already had her hands full as a homemaker, wife, mother and daughter. Also sewed her clothes and for 3 daughters. That was the era where 99% of dinners were made from scratch and no dishwasher. It wasn't doable. I remember her comment, "I would rather sew from scratch than do alterations". For a coworker, I recently hemmed two pairs of cotton work/uniform type trousers, and replaced a button and a closure on one. He gave me $50 for quick turnaround and not having to take them to the cleaners. All he wanted was a half inch turned up twice and stitched--easy. Wow. Then he brought me 2 pairs of dress slacks to remove the cuff and hem. I did one pair and returned the 2nd. It took 4 hours (I don't know why) in addition to many UA-cam videos. I zigzagged the edge, turned it under about half an inch and hand sewed a blind hem stitch. The zigzag wasn't flat and felt bulky. Because when you turn up, the hem is smaller than the leg, sovthat wasn't perfect either. He said , "so what!". I am sure they were fine for his imminent need. But I told him if I cannot do something, I am returning it or it will never get done.
Muchas gracias por tu video Saludos de Tailor home by Fredy
So helpful! I’m quite short and have been trying to figure out how to hem my shirts while preserving the curved hem. I’m excited to try this out!
Amazing! GREAT instructions, very clear and straightforward - there are other sleeve shortening videos but I haven’t found one that shows how to remove the placket. I need to shorten sleeves often and the cost has been prohibitive forcing me to find out how to do it myself! You have given me the confidence to actually try it myself! Thank you!
Thank you, I’m so glad you find my video helpful. Good luck!
I liked the way you explained. I'm a amateur in sewing, just do mendings, but I needed to fix a top of an uniform (a scrub) that was big for me in the shoulders. I enjoy your explanations and the comparisons that you made. Thank you very much, I live in Aruba and is the first time I see one of your videos, but like it. Now I will do my scrub and cross my fingers that I do a good job. Thank you, Joan
Good luck! I hope it goes well.
@@AngelaWoolsey Thank you🤗
I wonder if you might have any advice about a straight hem casual dress shirt. I followed these instructions which worked well except where your tabs were my shirt has side slit vents. I opened the seam slit up higher to accommodate the shortening but above the slit the shirt had very rough hems unfinished edges.
Nicely done! New subbie here. Take care
Thank you! ❤️
Subbed right back at you! I can't wait to see more of your videos!
Thank you so much. I did have to go to the other end of the seam, and 'voila", it worked wonderful. Great tip
Angela, when you lengthened the crotch didn’t it shorten the inseam?
I love sharp pointy thing too ✂️
Thank you so much for this easy to follow video! I'll be letting out some pants tomorrow, and had wrapped my head around most of the process but still had a few questions. Your video explained all the holes in my understanding!
Very Nice
I watched several of these videos and still couldn't quite see anything well. This video is by far the most clear explanation and best views. Thanks!
Great video dealing with shoulders which I always have problem with as drop shoulders don’t look good on me. What I got from your video is check bust and hip measurements first then alter sleeve using paper method. I’ve watched so many videos before on this subject but this video gave me the answers I needed to get it right for me. Thank you so much.
thank you very helpful
Great video. I like my sleeves above the elbow, so I'll try your same method, I'll just make them shorter and see how that works. I have several long-sleeved cotton women's blouses that I want to alter to short feminine sleeves for the Summer. Thanks for the great video!
At 22:26 you took a strand of your wax thread to tack the waistband down. Why do you need wax thread for this step? Where do you get it? Thanks for the video.
I use wax thread on all of my hand sewing projects if I have the color that matches the garment. Waxing the thread, makes the thread, stronger, helps it to glide through the fabric, easier, and helps prevent the thread from getting knotted up. Click below for the link to the waxed thread amzn.to/4apdZqw
I wish you used a lighter color pants for a clearer filming
Me too! Since making that video, I tried to stay away from dark colors. I’ll need to redo this video.
Just found your channel because the tag was stickered onto somebody's car. How about that
It must have been a little green car in California lol
@@AngelaWoolsey how about that! Then i guess we live in the same neighborhood. Cool!
@@Coleslawman17701 No, I moved out of California 2 years ago. I sold that car before moving. It's nice that the sticker is working though. :)
Thank you!
Thanks for that tutorial on trouser hems
What size are these? Can you link the red elastic? How much of the elastic did you use?
I don't remember what size these were. The elastic was the exact measurement of the legs and waist of the underwear. I didn't cut the elastic smaller and then stretch it. As far as the elastic goes, it was either given to me or I bought it at the garment district in Los Angeles Here is a link. I don't know the name of it, but I found this. It is the only listing I saw. amzn.to/3UHQS5B
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.
Thank you so much for great help.
You're welcome!
What happened to the part where you actually cut the seam???? you went straight to sewing
Because there’s no cutting in this alteration. I leave the original seam in to keep everything from shifting. After I sew the new seam, I’ll remove the original and press the sew seam open.
Wow I discovered this video in a search for info on the curved embroidery scissors people use to cut close to stitching, and wondered about the duckbill kind. You showed how they work, but along the way I saw also how to do a rolled hem on denim, which I thought was not possible except for very lightweight denim. Thank you for such a clear explanation. You mentioned having lots of tools for cutting. How do you sharpen things like the duckbill or curved embroidery scissors? I’m guessing you do sharpen your tools occasionally 🤓 I hope your channel grows.
I’ve taken them to Joanns and when I was in Montana, I took them to a guy who had a mobile knife and scissor sharpening business. Thank you! With many irons in the fire, it’s not growing like I wish it would. 🤣🤣
hello very beautiful video 👍 😊please kindly film a video tutorial for how to thread and operate this industrial sewing machine please ok?thank you very much and have a beautiful day 😊
I no longer have this machine.
Thank you ❤
You're welcome 😊
Omg you’re going to fast.
So sorry!
Spoiler: just adds red accent fabric to extend sleeve. 🤷♀️
But did it trigger any ideas on how to do it differently or better?
Brilliant!
Hi did you make the kilts? Because I want to make my self one and I know for a women it is different from men’s because of the waist is narrow and the hips…. Men’s structure is straight. Sorry I’m French having difficulty to explain But you get the picture.. thanks
No, I’m having trouble getting started because math is not my strong suit and my son-in-law, who I’m making this for, lives on the opposite coast, so I won’t be able to do fittings. Men’s kilts aren’t straight either. They flare by fractions of an inch. I was reading through the book again today, so hopefully it will soon start to make more sense, then I can get started .
Thank you just like you easy peasy Thank you once again hug for you ❤
Finally the truth no bs...I am after sewing info so I watch plenty of them and the kind of bs is going on is unbelievable. All the failed Etsy stores titled HOW I QUIT MY JOB AND SEW FOR A LIVING while they have 200 sales in 5 years on items costing 5 dollars. They make money selling bs and you people be aware of it. It is something like How to Get Rich classes from people who never even were rich before they sold the lessons, or books, or videos ...
I understand what you’re saying. I hate to see all the deceit, that’s why I try to be as open an honest as I can be in all that I do. Since that video was made, I have moved into a tiny house that I’m building out myself. Maybe it’s time for an updated video. Sewing in a tiny house is another level 😳

Thank you so much! This is my first super Thanks ever. I appreciate it!
Excellent video. You think like I do on this process 😊
This is great Angela thank you. Do you have a video that shows you how to turn a long-sleeved ladies' shirt into one with 3/4 sleeves or better still the kind you can roll up and secure with a strap in a 3/4 or short-sleeve position. That way you can wear it for the summer and the winter.
Thank you for being straight forward! I'm looking for ways to make money from home & also learning to sew. What skills do you need to learn/master to be a good seamstress?
