It has been awhile, but I hope you find this worth the wait! If you’ve never made a button up shirt before, you’ll be ready to tackle some of the trickier elements of sewing a shirt like sleeve plackets and the burrito method and grow your sewing skills. :)
Your method for attaching cuffs from the wrong side works so much better than the instructions in the pattern. Thank you! First really good cuff I have sewn.
Anyong! I know the approval of elders and parents in particular is huge in Korean culture. I hope your father continues to grow in his acceptance of your choice. I enjoyed watching this and want to try to make my own button-up shirt soon.
I really appreciate how you use a term and then give a definition as to what that term means. Thats such a small detail that makes a big difference. Thank you!
Thank you for another great video! I've sewn many button-up shirts, but your explanation and visual of the collar stand gave me an AHA moment that will make collars easier.
🥰🥰Thank you!! Sewing collars neatly has been challenging to me and I’ve been learning through great patterns/tutorials! Glad you found mine helpful in some ways!
Another great video, you never disappoint! Plackets are my nemesis but you made them look fairly straightforward. As always the shirt turned out really well and I hope your father enjoys wearing it. ❤
Thank you! A hint: get a can of temporary adhesive spray (used by machine embroiderers), spray the wrong side of the pocket. It will stick but once ironed, the adhesive properties disappear.
Thankyou Helen for your shirt making video, it thought me how to place the yoke now and have my shirt done after all this years trying. Your video is easy and beautiful.
Thank you. I am about to sew my first shirt with collar & stand so it is very helpful to watch you sew those elements. My pattern is different but the process is the same, and now the instructions make much more sense. I hope your Dad really loves his bespoke shirt.
You're welcome! I'm so glad that the video was helpful for you as you prepare to sew your own shirt with a collar and stand. Thank you for your well wishes for my dad's shirt - I hope he loves it too! Happy sewing!
Oh my god. This is what I'm looking for! I've been trying to sew my own shirt but don't know where to start. Your video tutorial is really clear and easy to follow. Thank you so much
I'm relieved that I noticed I had uploaded the low-quality 720p video and was able to quickly replace it with the correct one. Thank you for taking the time to come back and watch the updated version!
Thank you for your kind words, Sheryl! I'm so glad to hear my videos have been helpful and that you've learned a lot from them! I appreciated your support and encouragement!
The video was very helpful and sweet but I found the yoke part sewing it to the front part a little bit tricky! I eventually got it right after one failed attempt tho
Great Video, thank you! My ambition is to make a shirt. My first attempts to sew have been this week while on holiday at home. I started with six aprons .... so far so good! My ambition remains but I accept I have a lot to learn and will tread carefully towards my goal. Thank you for your inspiration and good luck with your continued career ... p.s. I am a man by the way!!
Thank you! I'm so glad you like the fabric. It's so cozy and warm, perfect for spring and autumn weather. I hope the shirt inspires you to create something equally wonderful for yourself. Thank you for your lovely comment, Jolette!
thank you so much for this, I will try to make my first shirt thanks to this easy to understand video. I tried to buy something for christmas but sizing and materials and colors are all godawful?? meanwhile I have suitable nice fabric, sewing machines, a million buttons and matching thread. even interfacing. what am I doing shopping for stuff that was probably made by exploited workers and doesn't even look good... let's DIY this!!
Thank you, for the tutorial. I thought I was doing my plackets wrong for this shirt but they did all turn out ok with just folding over. It was hard to see the wrong side on your fabric choice.
You're very welcome, and thank you for your feedback! I'm sorry that it was difficult to see the right and wrong side of the fabric in the video! While using a quilting weight cotton fabric might have made it easier to demonstrate the right and wrong sides in the video, I wanted to use this beautiful brushed cotton for my dad's shirt.
Love your videos! It's sometimes hard to follow along when both the right and wrong side of the fabric look the same. This plaid fabric has a tendency to look the same from each side.
I make an effort to steer clear of fabrics that might confuse the audience, but I do have a preference for working with yarn-dyed fabrics when creating garments. Unfortunately, this means that occasionally there might be some confusion. I apologize for any inconvenience caused, but I find this fabric particularly appealing and couldn’t resist using it.
Thank you so much! It's my hope that through my sewing tutorials and projects, I can provide a therapeutic and enjoyable experience for viewers. Thank you again for your kind words and support!
I was running through the internet to find just information on the cuffs and that was FAST there was no way to cuff up to what you were pointing to or what you were saying and I love your content! but that made things so confusing I just thought to say!

25:35 I wish you all the best. I'm sewing my first shirt today, and this video has been the best help so far. God bless you
Me too.
The twine trick for crisp corners is brilliant.
Thanks to your clear instructions I managed to make my first intermediate project...thanks a lot!
Wonderful! 🥰💕
I really appreciate how you use a term and then give a definition as to what that term means. Thats such a small detail that makes a big difference. Thank you!
Thank you so much for your thoughtful feedback! It definitely encourages me! 🤍
Very nice and very informative, I had no idea how much detail went into making a shirt. Thank you for making and sharing this video.

Awww thank you so much for taking time and leaving me an encouraging comment! ☺️🫶🫶
I really appreciate the little explanations under each word. Now I understand what things like stay stitch and understitch mean!
Thank you! A hint: get a can of temporary adhesive spray (used by machine embroiderers), spray the wrong side of the pocket. It will stick but once ironed, the adhesive properties disappear.
Ooo good to know! I never tried the temporary adhesive spray! 😍
Absolutely beautiful shirt for your Dad. What a lovely dedication. 🧡
🥰🥰🫶
Wow, what a level of description, thank you very much for taking the time to teach us this good
Glad it was helpful!☺️🫶
Thankyou Helen for your shirt making video, it thought me how to place the yoke now and have my shirt done after all this years trying. Your video is easy and beautiful.
I’m glad you found my video helpful! 🤍 I’m not Helen though! 🤣
Love everything, especially the visual cues for each repetitive motion like “iron”. Very fun. Easily understandable. Thank you!
🥰🥰 Thank you!

Thank you for sharing your detailed instructions, you really are a great teacher. Xx
Love the calming music.
Aww thank you so much! ☺️
Well you made that look so simple! I'm sure your dad will appreciate it and be proud you made it for him 🙂
Thank you, Karen! I hope that he feels proud of both me and the shirt that I made for him!
Thank you for putting this video back up! I really appreciate this tutorial, thanks so much.

Lived the video. I’m sure your dad is very proud of you ❤
☺️💘
I’ve bought the pattern and cut the fabric to make my husband a shirt. He is thrilled
Enjoy your Cameron sewing! ✨
I'd definitely buy this if I see it in a store. Quite intimidating but fun to watch!
Hehe thank you! I’m glad you like this shirt! 🤍
So great to see you sewing again. I missed you 🎉😂
😅😅🙌🙌🙌💕
Terrific tutorial. I’ve never seen the technique of using twine to ease the sleeves and am eager to try it. Thanks.
You should try! It’s my favourite gathering method! ☺️
Thank you, I'm sewing my first men's shirt & this helped me best! 👌
Wonderful!👍😊
So glad to hear about your CBC success! Great video!

The video was very helpful and sweet but I found the yoke part sewing it to the front part a little bit tricky! I eventually got it right after one failed attempt tho

Love the fabric - I would wear it myself! 🧡 We're properly in autumn here in South Africa now so this shirt is looks very cosy and inspiring 🤌🏻
Thank you! I'm so glad you like the fabric. It's so cozy and warm, perfect for spring and autumn weather. I hope the shirt inspires you to create something equally wonderful for yourself. Thank you for your lovely comment, Jolette!
Thank you sister, this was a good tutorial
You are so welcome! 🥰

Yes of course!
I'm a beginner and i Love the video,please help me with the measurements and the cutting...
what kind of tools to pin the pocket?
I think I can do this! :D Thank you for such a clear video.
You're so welcome!
Absolutely beautiful!❤ how long does it take you to make a shirt?

Many thanks for the Amazing demonstration 😊 😊 😊
Thank YOU for watching!
I taught myself to sew but I'm not perfect, thank you so much for this video
I hope this video guides you through every step!☺️
Absolutely wonderful News ! Thank-you always !
Thank YOU for your support and encouragement, Nicolaus!
One day, when I feel like torturing myself, I'll attempt sewing a shirt.
😂😂😂
It’s not that bad though! 😂😂
@@SewingTherapy Nah, you are so talented🤝🏼.
Shirts are hard🥴. But I'll definitely try in the future.
Probably we need direct coaching. I think this is torturing too.
hiii
They are called Craft Clips!
Thank you, for the tutorial. I thought I was doing my plackets wrong for this shirt but they did all turn out ok with just folding over. It was hard to see the wrong side on your fabric choice.
You're very welcome, and thank you for your feedback! I'm sorry that it was difficult to see the right and wrong side of the fabric in the video! While using a quilting weight cotton fabric might have made it easier to demonstrate the right and wrong sides in the video, I wanted to use this beautiful brushed cotton for my dad's shirt.
Thank you sooooo much this is so helpful!
😆😆👍👍
Can I use a serger to do the main body part?
It’s totally up to you. I always stitch first before serging to secure the seam. 😊
Thank you for this Video!!!
How much seam allowance should I leave for the stay-stitch?
Ensure the stay stitch remains within your main stitches. Sew with a seam allowance of less than 3/8".
thanks aboutyour vidio i understand easy how to sewing shirt
You are welcome 😊Glad you found my video easy to understand!
Love your videos! It's sometimes hard to follow along when both the right and wrong side of the fabric look the same. This plaid fabric has a tendency to look the same from each side.

Thank you so much for your video 😍
My pleasure 😊
How can get the pattern draft of the shirt please?
It’s a commercial pattern from Helen’s Closet!
HOW much fabric do I need to buy to make this
Check out the fabric requirements on the instructions of this pattern. It depends on your size and the width of your fabric.
@@SewingTherapyok ,thanks ❤
I know this is supposed to be therapeutic but I’m stressing out in just trying to read the white letters over a white background! Ugh 😢
I will be more thoughtful!
it is so stepwise work
Is this a specific pattern??
Yes, I used Cameron Shirt pattern from Helen’s Closet.
How joyful it is to see a new video and how beautiful the comment about your dad. Load the name of your account for meanings.
Thank you so much! It's my hope that through my sewing tutorials and projects, I can provide a therapeutic and enjoyable experience for viewers. Thank you again for your kind words and support!
Thankyou
So sweet❤😁
Thank you!
I thought i was ready 😭
I was running through the internet to find just information on the cuffs and that was FAST there was no way to cuff up to what you were pointing to or what you were saying and I love your content! but that made things so confusing I just thought to say!
You can adjust the speed in the settings. ☺️
Genial
