How to sew up a hole in jeans neatly and discreetly by hand: instructions

Hand darning is suitable for holes with a right angle and in the form of a cut line. For a different type of damage, you will have to use other methods of repair.

Choose threads to match the fabric
Overlay stitches from one side of the hole to the opposite: back and forth
Then, between these threads, make tight stitches, perpendicular to those already sewn, to make a thin mesh patch of threads. In this case, we alternately skip the needle and thread from the bottom of the existing stitch, then from the top

In one direction, we make the basis for the lattice

In the other direction, we form a dense lattice

I love and hate stretch jeans. I like them because they sit well on my figure, do not hang like ordinary jeans and fit everything nicely, but they have a significant drawback. Stretch jeans are not as durable and tend to wear out quickly.

Last month, two of my favorite pairs of jeans were worn right between my legs. And this is just after I altered the buttons for a perfect fit. I was very upset, not only because these are my favorite jeans, but also because now I have to go to a lot of stores before I can find a replacement for them.

Stretch jeans are a bit more difficult to sew than normal jeans. At first I tried to make an ordinary inseam, but this was only enough for a couple of days.

And then a “brilliant” thought came to me 🙂, why not use old stretch jeans for repairs?

No sooner said than done.

Step 1: What you need

Pair of damaged jeans
Another pair of discarded old jeans, or scraps of material from them
Needle
Polyester thread of the desired color
pins
Scissors

If you're frugal enough, you'll probably have an unwanted pair of jeans in the right color in your pantry. I'm not so far-sighted and always threw them away, I won't do that again!

You will definitely be able to do this job better than me if you can find repair jeans in the same color. As you can see in the photo, my color is slightly different.

It is highly desirable to use a thread made of polyester, it stretches very well, while a thread made of 100% cotton will most likely not withstand loads. We can quite find them on sale at reasonable prices, in extreme cases you can order from China.

Stage 2: Patch

Approximately determine what size patch you need to hide a hole in your jeans. I recommend cutting the patch taking into account the direction of the fibers. (For example: if the fabric on the jeans has a more horizontal direction than the vertical direction, then cut the patch with this in mind.)

I didn't really experiment with the shape of the patch, as you can see, it has smooth edges. You can dream up and make it any shape you like.

Secure the patch securely with pins. Reliable fastening will simplify your task. You can probably use special glue, but I didn’t because it would become more difficult to sew by hand.

We fold the thread in half, the length of the thread is approximately equal to the length of the arm from the elbow to the fingertips. If you have beeswax, you can rub the thread with it. This will help it not get tangled and will be easier to pull through the fabric.

Pass the needle only through the patch from the inside. Initially, do not thread the needle through the jeans and the patch at the same time - the knot inside the jeans will be very uncomfortable. It would seem that a small knot, it's okay, but when it rubs against your skin for a whole day, it will begin to seem just huge.

Stage 4: Sew up the edges

Usually, before sewing the edges around the perimeter, I grab the patch from several sides to secure it.

Try to make miniature stitches - up to 3 mm from the edge with an interval between stitches also up to 3 mm. In the photo above, you can see what it looks like.

After you reach the end, make a tight knot, again between the patch and the jeans.

Stage 5: Strengthen the hole

This step is optional, but I decided to sew it up just in case, because it will not allow the hole to diverge and will keep the middle of the patch firmly pressed against the surface of the jeans. Ordinary line around the perimeter of the hole.

Don't forget to make a knot between the patch and the jeans.

Here. Beautifully repaired jeans! 😆

Jeans have long become universal clothing for men, women and even children. Very often, having found for himself the ideal model of panties, which emphasizes all the advantages of the figure and does not hinder movement, a person wears a thing almost without taking it off.

From constant washing and operation, even the highest quality products can tear. But do not immediately throw away your favorite jeans, you can always try to mend a hole, the main thing is to know how to do it right.

How to mend a hole or disguise it on jeans?

Teenagers who find a hole, for example, on their knee, may well leave a hole as part of a fashionable and stylish look. True, you need to look so that the tear looks harmonious, you may have to “ruffle” its edges a little or increase the size, in general, give it a fashionable and finished look. By the way, one hole is unlikely to manage. Such products usually have several holes that are located asymmetrically, the most popular places of dislocation are knees, hips and below the knees.

If you have no desire to flaunt the bare parts of the body, then you can easily sew on a patch. The method that we will discuss next is suitable for cuts with a rectangular shape and in the form of an angle.

To work, you need to buy threads that are identical in color with a touch of jeans. A darker or lighter tone will not work, the place of repair will look untidy, attract unnecessary attention.

Horizontal holes are darned by hand with dense, small stitches. In order for everything to turn out beautifully, you should not rush, each stitch should be equal to the previous one and be very close to it. The distance between the stitches is unacceptable, otherwise all efforts will be meaningless.

Jeans can be patched if desired. To do this, you need to look for a piece of fabric that will harmonize in color with your leaky pants. It will be just fine if you can pick up identical matter. So, when everything you need is found, you can get to work.

The payment is made as follows:

a future patch is cut from the prepared material. To do this, you need to determine the shape and size of the hole, cut the workpiece according to the data obtained, allowing 1-2 cm each. Please note that even if your hole is intricate, the patch still needs to be given the correct shape;
the edges of the cut blank must be overcast manually or using a machine;
now position the patch under the tear. This must be done so that the edges of the fabric are at the same distance from the edges of the hole, fasten the fabric with needles and baste by hand;
inspect your work, if the patch does not wrinkle, then you can carefully sew it "clean".

This repair option is suitable for those who do not know how to manually darn jeans between their legs.

If you can't find a piece of fabric that fits well with the fabric of your jeans, don't worry. In such a situation, you can always play in contrast, for example, put a leather patch on men's denim pants, and girls can use organza, chiffon, lace for this purpose, dense fabric with a pattern is perfect. In general, there are many options, and to make an unusual patch look harmonious, make another one of the same.

The method using beautiful pieces of fabric is suitable for those girls who are tormented by the question of how to darn jeans on their knees in an original way. Contrasting material will look very creative and stylish.

The edges of such unusual patches can be left untreated, left shaggy, or decorated with rhinestones. The patches of the original shape will look good: rhombus, star, etc., whatever you like best.

If the hole in the jeans is small, then it can be masked with an appliqué. Do not think that this technique is suitable only for children's things. In stores now you can find applications for every taste. If desired, such products can be completely combined in color with a touch of trousers, or they can contrast, expressing your individuality.

Applications are attached very simply - with the help of a hot iron, which melts the glue and tightly connects the patch with the fabric of your jeans. The only disadvantage of using such stickers is fragility. After a few washes, the picture may fall off, but to prevent this from happening, you can secure the appliqué with small stitches.

Now let's talk about regular darning. It can be made by machine or by hand.

For work you need:

buy threads that match your pants in color. It will be ideal if you find an identical tone. If this did not work out, then take the threads a little darker and a little lighter than the desired shade. You will use one color for the bottom stitch and another for the top stitch;
connect the edges of the hole. To do this, make several seams, determining their appearance, based on the appearance of the gap. Remember that these seams should not only connect the fabric, but also become the basis for further work;

now put parallel seams close to each other. This is done quite simply. It is necessary to lay the first seam, which will begin one centimeter from the edge of the hole, and end in the same way. When the first line is laid, the matter is turned over, all actions are repeated until the hole is stitched;
when working, do not pull the fabric too hard, otherwise you will have an untidy wave;
if your jeans have a large tear, you can put a patch in front of the darning that will match or be close in color. In this case, you will have to darn on a patch.

With the help of darning, you can sew up almost any tear. The main thing is patience.

How to darn jeans between legs on a typewriter?

Holes between the legs are a problem for many people. In these places, the pants are subjected to increased friction, so holes often occur. If you decide to darn your pants, there are two ways to do it: manually and using a machine. We have already noted how to mask holes with our hands above, so we will discuss the repair of holes on a typewriter.

To work, do the following:

set the straight stitch mode on your sewing machine;
now you need to seal the fabric. To do this, connect the matter close to each other and make parallel lines;
the place where you made repairs, steam off. This will make your work invisible to prying eyes.

Of course, you cannot sew up global holes in this way, but if gaps have just begun to appear between the legs, such a darning will help strengthen the fabric.

Today we talked about how to darn a hole in jeans in a practical and beautiful way. You should not immediately carry leaky things to the trash, a little skill and imagination, and even leaky clothes can be breathed new life. Try it and you will succeed, good luck!

Jeans today are an integral part of every person's wardrobe. They have become available to almost everyone. If some jeans become unusable - they become very dirty, torn, you can buy new ones. But it is not always easy to say goodbye to your favorite thing, especially if it is expensive and branded.

The area between the legs wears out the fastest. In this place there are scuffs, small and large gaps. You don't have to throw away your favorite jeans right away. You can try to darn them so that they still last for some time.

Tools for the job

Their choice depends on whether you have to darn the product manually or on a typewriter. If you have to sew with your hands, you need to take a household needle that is suitable in size. On the package with needles indicate their thickness and what material they are intended for. For denim, 11 or 14 will work well. In order for the thread to be inserted well, its size must match the needle. The threads must be strong so that the darned hole does not come apart again after a short time. The size of cotton thread is suitable for stitching 50-80, synthetic - 50-60. It is better to use polyester thread. They stretch well and are able to withstand heavy loads.

Also useful for work:

scissors;
pins;
unwanted jeans or a piece of fabric of the same color.

Hole processing methods

There are several ways to repair damage to the fabric between the legs in jeans, depending on their scale. If the gaps are small, you can resort to stuffing or the usual stitching of the edges with your hands. For larger holes, internal patching or patching may be used. Stitches can be applied by hand or with a sewing machine.

How to darn by hand

Cut off all protruding threads without touching the fabric itself. If the tear is minor, you can darn your jeans without using a patch. Insert the thread into the needle, at the end make a tight knot. First, sew the edges of the gaps tightly together so that they do not diverge further.

Sew the edges around the hole. Start making stitches at a distance of 1 cm from it on all sides. Taper stitches as you approach edges. Pull the thread, cut off the excess.

On a note! Do not sew very close to the edge, the fabric will fray. For darning, it is better to use buttonhole or overcast seams.

Shtukovka

This is a sewing process in which adjacent stitches are sewn. The threads lay down in such a way that they reliably restrain the product from further abrasion and hide all visual defects of the fabric. The stitches are laid close together with a sewing machine.

Shtukovka - one of the best methods of getting rid of gaps, but also quite painstaking. You need to choose a fabric that matches the color and structure of the jeans and attach it from the inside out. The machine must have a reverse function. The first stitch is made in the forward direction, the second - in the opposite direction. The line should pass not only along the patch, but also go beyond its limits by 1-2 cm.

If the machine does not have a reverse function, you just need to unfold the product after each stitch and sew straight. At the end of the procedure, cut off the fringe on the front side and steam the darned area with an iron.

Applying a patch

If the jeans between the legs are torn badly, then you can’t do without a patch. Match fabric of identical color and texture with ripped jeans. In size, it should be a couple of centimeters larger than the hole. Threads also need to match the tone.

Trim loose areas with scissors. Give the patch the desired shape. Secure it to your jeans with pins so it doesn't move. Insert a thread of a color contrasting with the patch into the needle, make a knot at the end. Baste the patch with a basting stitch. You need to pull out the pins. Only after that sew the patch with threads matching in color.

On a typewriter

interlining or a suitable piece of fabric.

It is necessary to turn the pants on the wrong side, put a piece of interlining (fabric) that is suitable in size, go over the top with an iron. Then sew up the frayed area with even parallel seams, using the reverse stitch. Sutures should be placed as close as possible to the damaged area. A correctly applied patch remains invisible.

A hole between the legs in jeans is not a sentence. If a thing is a pity to throw away, then you can reanimate it and mend it. In some cases, this is painstaking and time-consuming work. But following the above recommendations, you can get rid of the hole so that no one will guess about its presence in the past.

Hello dear craftswomen!

Today I propose to pay attention to jeans. I think that there are a small number of people who do not have them in their wardrobe. Modern fashion offers us jeans with trim, decorations, with lycra, as well as with scuffs, holes in different places. These are the ones I want to talk about today.

I agree, scuffs on denim look nice, but when they are small, they are neat and there are not many of them. As soon as they start tearing further, since the material in these places is weak, they look ugly and cheap.

Apparently, for this reason, we are often approached by clients whose scuffs begin to spread, tear in different directions. They ask us the same question: “How to fix a hole in jeans? Is it possible to patch it up beautifully, to close the knee?” Yes, of course you can.

Today, at the request of many readers, I bring to your attention a master class, after which you can mend the tear on the knee, pope, in any place you need. And you can continue to wear your favorite jeans.

How to sew up a hole in jeans. Master Class

Our task:

Strengthen the material on the knee
Hide the hole
Patch the torn part

For work we need:

interlining;
denim;
iron;
scissors;
sewing thread of a suitable color;
sewing machine;
pins;
basting needle.

Progress:

Before us is not a small hole on the knee, which has already begun to tear down.
Photo 1 - 2.

The first thing to do is to strengthen the fabric around it so that this place does not tear with further wear of the product.
As in doing, in the same way in this case, we rip the side of the leg.

This is done for convenience in the repair process. If the hole is in the butt area, this is not necessary, since the approach to it will be convenient through the top of the jeans.

Now, iron the torn place with an iron. We put interlining around it, with the adhesive side to the fabric, (photo 3). Using the function "pairs" we fix. Photo 4.

We turn the product on the front side. From denim material, cut out a rectangle or oval of the desired size. If possible, we overcast the edges with an overlock or zigzag on a sewing machine. But this is optional. Snapshot 5.

I put the prepared patch (using the ripped seam along the inner seam of the leg), closing the hole, pin it with pins. Snapshot 6. I sweep in a circle.

We select threads suitable for darning, folding them several times and comparing them with the main fabric. Snapshot 7.

We sit down at the sewing machine, fill it with selected threads and sew on the torn part, then we go in a circle.

We use the main line and the function of the machine forward - backward. We scribble, taking into account the twill weave of the fabric, which is distinguished by a characteristic rib running diagonally.

Attention! We sew, laying a line in the direction of the scar. Snapshot 8

We take out the basting, iron the patch and sew up the inner leg seam, which we used for convenience during darning.

Hooray! Everything is ready!))) Well done! This is how our knee looks now.))) Picture 9.

Simple ideas for decorating torn places

If your jeans are decorated with a finishing fabric (plaid, guipure, brightly colored fabric, leather, knitted details), then you can use this material to cover the fraying. Here are examples.

Attention! It is imperative to glue and reinforce the fabric around the torn place with non-woven fabric.

If the fabric for the patch is thin, we also glue it with non-woven fabric and only then hem it. If this is guipure and you want it not to tear, you can put material under it (glue it with interlining) of the desired color. It can be flesh, color ... We are engaged in Creativity)))

How to make holes in your jeans

By adding lycra (lycra) and other additives to denim, jeans became very fragile. And when it is still decorated with holes and scuffs, it breaks even faster.

To know how this happens, I propose to look at how holes are made on jeans in factory conditions.

These jeans won't last long.

In my opinion, it is better to make holes yourself where you want. After all, then the rest of the places will be strong)))

I hope my master class will help you sew up the torn places, and the suggested ideas will inspire you to decorate jeans yourself.
