    i can't tell you how many of these videos on patching your jeans tell you, "just pop it in the sewing machine!" seriously, i want to patch my jeans. i don't have a sewing machine. in fact, if you're in the internet trying to figure out how to patch your jeans, you probably don't have a sewing machine. thanks for nothing, sewing community!

    Why not google how to hand sew and then follow the other very useful information in this video?

    I agree but the sewing machine is just zig-zagging a needle in and out of the fabric: You really should be able to figure out how to do that manually!

    Levis are like £40 at their cheapest, a patch is like £1.

    Thank you so very much! I own a pair of 511 Levi's jeans with a rip exactly where you demonstrated. I tried really hard to make them look as scruffy as they are now and I can't just let them go. This video is a life saver. Thanx again :)

    This is like complaining that too many recipes tell you to just pop things into the mixer, when you're looking for recipes that you only mix by hand. Clearly you do all the same things she shows here, except you sew it by hand. You need to look up "how to sew by hand", & assume that modern sewing instructions use modern technology.
