How To: Machine Embroider Jeans

I love the look of embroidery on garments. It’s a fun way to customize basics and add color and designs. Lately, I’ve seen many ready-to-wear looks embellished with machine embroidery, mainly on denim garments. Denim is an ideal textile to embroider on because of the medium weight woven material which does well with dense designs. I love doing machine embroidery on the back of denim jackets, cuffs, and pockets of jeans. Jeans can be a bit tricky to embroidery because there isn’t a lot of large panels like the back of a jacket for example. Plus you can open up a jacket to easily hoop the back. When doing embroidery on jeans you will most likely have to do some sort of seam ripping to open up seams. In this tutorial I’m sharing how to machine embroider the bottom edges of a pair of jeans.
