Just starting on my first shirt. My husband picked your pattern online. He asked if I thought it would be a good one - oh that's MimiG? I'm getting that one! I am blown away and tickled pink to be learning how to sew the pattern from the actual dude on the envelope!!! Now following you on Instagram! :)
Great to see a guy sewing. Norris did a fabulous job on this video, hope we get to see more of him and other guys on your channel. Well done. Greetings from North Wales, UK.
Great good!!!! You have really been paying attention to Mimi with the way you explain so clearly. Your voice is smooth and not annoying. The camera set up for all videos are amazing.
Excellent video! Thank you! I have never really understood the 'burrito' technique of the shirt yolk, so it's so nice to have your great demonstration; also collar stand and collar attachments on the pattern instructions drive me crazy, but you made it look so easy, and plackets too! Thanks again!!!
This is great...! I enjoid the video. However, the color of shirt, I couldn't see very well. But thank u. I need to start making shirts for my family. And this is a great help.
Such a help when attempting the yolk 'burrito' method and especially the placket - what a nightmare this has been and I have undone it twice now. Before I found your video I could only find photographs or the instructions in my Fairfield shirt booklet, which is fine is you are not a novice like me! I only bought a sewing machine in Lockdown, made a few easy skirts and this is my first shirt, for my brother. It is in a Liberty Tana Lawn fabric, so terrifying to get it wrong. THANK you for your clear instructions, great filming and, yes, what is your sewing machine as it looks and sounds good? Thanks again, you are excellent.
Loved this Sew-along. In future videos, would love to hear your suggestions on finishing. I am still a bit confused on whether serging my seam allowances and pressing them to the side or 'pinking' them with shears and pressing them open is the best way to go.
Jurnalist TMFMCU! What’s up! I didn’t reveal it? Oh dang I’ll definitely tighten up my game on future tutorials b/c I have a lot more I’m planning on shooting for y’all. Please don’t stop shooting me good feedback and be sure to checkout our online school sewitacademy.com & follow my IG page: @norrisdantaford
No shade my brother relearning and learning more about sewing and found you and watched the whole playlist and I just noticed that once you get to the end of the tutorial where I think you think its self explanatory i.e the buttons on the denim jacket or the hem on copying your favorite tee you just talk instead of either speed edit to a final process while you talk or just showing it as a beginner these steps and a final reveal worn or hanging I feel are crucial thanks for the response and the boys subscribed so when the new content drops ill get the notification also I noticed that there's no links in the description ti purchase or link to the pattern kits you use from I assume your ole ladies business. would like to check those out and see pricing too for myself. @@NorrisDantaFord
Ironically, I just bought this pattern too....just last week. Didn't expect a video. Win/win! I'm a sew it academy member also, you've upped your tutorial game, big time. Good job.
I see what you are doing man and i respect and support your hustle. Thank you for following your goals to reach your dream because you have created an opportunity for me to do the same by viewing and following your video. I do have a question, are you using the same fabric for interfacing or purchased some interfacing and applied that. If you did purchase it, where have you found interfacing for the lowest cost?
How you doing Norris I've been following you for a long time now and just learning how to sew but am having some problems with my yoke and a attaching my sleeves I wish it was some kind of way that I can contact you in Maybe give me some pointers on what to do for real you are a master. I am a big fan of yours
Hi Norris, I want to make a something like this, but I want the yoke, collar, button placket, and breast pocket to be a different color from the rest of the shirt. Can that be done using this pattern?
Hi, I am new to your channel. I purchased this pattern recently and I will like to know if I have to add seam allowance or is it already add to the pattern ?
Hi, thanks for the great video! Which sewing machine are you using, and do you recommend it? I'm looking to get a new machine and possibly a surger and cover lock so any recommendations would be great!
Minor suggestion; don't use white or bright fabric for these sew alongs. Everything gets blown out in the video and makes it hard to see what is going on.
Great job, I just wish you would specify on the sides of the fabric as in “right sides” or “wrong side” of fabrics because it is hard to tell which side is being sewn to which side on your fabric. 😕
Good job Norris 🎉 now I will follow this pattern for my husband 😊
Norris ...you the best!!!!

I just made up this pattern and it is brilliant.
Awesome job! I am just finishing a womens button down and your steps made so much more sense.

Love your channel and your sew along vids. Thanks for sharing.
Just bought the pattern today. Can't wait to try it!
Thanks!!! Very clear and succinct instructions, Norris!

obviously the sides and around the sleeves it needs to be serged/overlocked?
I see what you are doing man and i respect and support your hustle. Thank you for following your goals to reach your dream because you have created an opportunity for me to do the same by viewing and following your video.
I do have a question, are you using the same fabric for interfacing or purchased some interfacing and applied that. If you did purchase it, where have you found interfacing for the lowest cost?
Does anybody know if you need to add seam allowance or whether it's included? Sorry, I'm a beginner!
Really looking forward to sewing my shirt!
The 5/8” is included in the pattern pieces
How you doing Norris I've been following you for a long time now and just learning how to sew but am having some problems with my yoke and a attaching my sleeves I wish it was some kind of way that I can contact you in Maybe give me some pointers on what to do for real you are a master.

does anyone know what kind of sewing machine he is using?

Admiring your skills!! Where did you learn to sew so good?
Please tell me, what machine are you using?
lol i was wondering the same
this straight stitch correct ?
Is this the 45 in or the 60 in option?
I'm stuck on the yoke notches not matching up with the back. :-(
Did you do the back pleat first?
@@NorrisDantaFord I did. I thought that was it so I marked and sewed the pleat and it's still off...way off
What is the easiest way to purchase patterns online, I lives in Copenhagen Denmark
Awesome
i just bought this pattern!!!
CHEEEZELORD That’s awesome! Please tag me when you sew it up!
Minor suggestion; don't use white or bright fabric for these sew alongs. Everything gets blown out in the video and makes it hard to see what is going on.
lovableasshole for sure. We’ve gotten better with light here in our studio now.
No try on??
