Learning To Tailor My Husband's Clothes

The beginner sewing projects continue! But this time instead of making something for myself, my husband Lou has asked that I help him out with tailoring a bunch of his clothes!

Tailoring clothes to fit your body is something that I hadn’t given much thought to. For the most part, I have pretty average proportions, so store-bought clothes generally fit me. My husband Lou on the other hand has a very long torso and has always preffered to alter his clothes to fit his body better. For the last 5 -7 years though life has been kind of wild as we’ve lived in Berlin, then in a van, a sailboat, and now after getting settled in Hawaii, I can finally become the tailor he’s been craving! In this video, I do some pretty easy DIY alterations to a bunch of his shorts and also decide to clone one of his really old t-shirts (which turned out to be harder than I expected!)

Learning how to alter clothes at home is honestly such a helpful skill to have and I am really looking forward to seeing how in the future I can even tailor patterns during the creation process, so all the items I’m making fit us perfectly.

Any tailors out there with some tips? Lou’s been enjoying all his alterations so much lately and as of now, they’re all holding up well!

Thank you so much for all your support as I learn to sew. It’s so fun sharing this creative process with you and I feel like there is limitless potential when it comes to sewing projects in the future!
