Try Day 9 Tonight Free

Darling, the first thing I look at is not your face. It is your trouser hem.

A hem puddling over the shoe says "off the rack." A hem that kisses the top of the shoe, with no stitching showing, says "made for me." The difference is about forty minutes and one stitch.

This free sample is Day 9 of Thirty Stitches, the invisible hem, exactly as it appears in the book: the steps, the drawn illustration, my warning, and the test. Find a pair of trousers that are too long, a needle and some thread. By tonight you'll know whether this is for you.
