This is the only placket tutorial I can actually follow. I've watched several videos and they're mostly difficult to even understand. This is so clear and I've used it several times now!
I work at a fabric store and I have learned so many helpful things from your tutorials. It makes it easier for me to help my customers. I suggest your channel to so many people, especially the beginner sewers.
+Heather Gonzalez I used to work at a fabric store too! Glad to help you out and thanks for recommending Professor Pincushion :)
Omg I was panicking about doing a button placket. But this tutorial has given me so much confidence! Thank you. You have a new subscriber!
Nice tutorial. Technically it doesn't matter but it is maybe worth mentioning that in your video the closure is left over right, which is often used for men' clothes, while for women it is often right over left.
Exactly, this tutorial is confusing for a placket on women’s clothing it is the wrong way.
It's clear so all I would do is turn to the side to gender fit❤
I want to thank you so very much for your clear tutorial on the placket construction and please continue with your clear videos. I am a newbie with learning to sew my own clothes and appreciate your videos. Please continue and your beautiful nails.
+Fay A thank you so much for your kind words
Thank you! I don't know how many videos I watched on this topic before yours, but now I get it. My first practice placket came out well enough that I now dare to cut the cloth for my next garment.
This is just what I need, thank you. I have to put a placket down the front of a smocked frock and had no idea how to do it neatly. Thank you again.
glad to help! :)
I’ve been struggling with plackets and driving myself crazy trying to figure them out. This tutorial finally helped me to figure it out!!! Thank you

I am from Sri Lanka. This is the first time to sew a placket very successfully following your video. It's very clear and easy to follow. I tried so many videos but I could'nt do it neatly before'. So thanks a lot. I don't know whether you have done umbrella sleeve and butter fly sleeve. I did'nt check your videos. If not pl do some sleeves and the chinese collar. Once again Thank You very much. I will check your videos. I wish you healthy life time.
I like this, the pieces can’t shift around! So clean

Would this also work for a skirt placket with hook and eye closures?
Thank you. Very clearly explained.

I'm using a Butterick pattern B5526. And there is the "placket" and the "front band", do I need to use both or I can only use the "front band" to make my shirt?
Great job
Thank you
Thanks a lot 👍👍
hi sis... iam srilankan youre vidios supper.thanks
So so helpful. On a knit garment, such as jersey, what type of fabric would you use for the placket?
Excellent, thank you.
Would this work the same if you wanted the placket right over left instead of left over right fold?
Just love your videos! Help me out here. I may not beeing looking at this correctly . Why wouldnt you, or coukd you, sew the placket to the outside (just the opposite of what you demonstrated) then hand sew on the inside, giving the outside a clean neat finish? Is it because you have to top/edge stitch the placet down?
Very well explained 👍
Is this the same process I would follow if I wanted a hem slit with binding? I’m not sure what that’s called.
Brilliant
this video is very helpful for me,, i love sew. I want to say for it, that keep it up
+Fatima Patoli I'm glad you found it helpful :)
That was very nice. What I would like to see is I guess you would call it a placket.
But one for mens slack with hidden fly buttons I would think that the under side of the top placket would have hidden button holes so that would mean the top part of the placket would be in two parts is that so and maybe how would one be created?
+Russell Gibson yeah, that's a different process than this but this tutorial might help: malepatternboldness.blogspot.com/2011/05/jeans-sew-along-10-how-to-make-button.html
+Professor Pincushion thank you I do think it will.
Very nice 👌
great job well done
Thank you very much.
Thank you so much 💜💜💜
Is there a part two on how to finish up the neckline with a placket?
Surely for a women’s top the placket should be reversed - the one with the button holes be on the top and buttons on the bottom one?
very very helpful
as i am breastfeeding, can i put zipper instead of button with this placket? it is easier to have zipper opening than button opening for me.
you would probably have to do the plackets differently to get a zipper in. Check out our tutorial on the fly zipper. I would imagine that it would have a similar look.

Thanks for sharing.
Hi Tova. When the final product is buttoned, does the neckline measurement stay the same as the original neckline measurement?
Thank you so much!!xxx
It,s good Ilove it
Please tell me where you got your iron
thank you!
wow perfection
Would this work with a tshirt?
very nice
very nice.
شكرا هذا الشرح
can i make a button down dress with a double jersey knit fabric
Why the button placket is from the left to the right?
She’s done it the wrong way for women’s clothing
Awesome. Will subcribe for sure
hi Tova. i have seen some rtw blouses that have plackets where one part of the placket has concealed buttonholes. i mean the buttons can not be seen from the outside. is the method of construction with this video?
Btw, thanks so much for the detailed explanation.

Need some help..are we suppose to make neckline first and then button placket?
Do you mean "finish the neckline"? I would put in the placket and then finish the neckline. Hope that helps :)
so nice
Can I use this technique for a button down classic shirt?! If so would I just make the length of the placket the total length for the shirt? Thanks for the tutorial it's very easy to follow!
+KrisMarie You could if you wanted to, if you can finish the bottom so that it looks nice. With my placket, it's still 1 piece at the bottom and a button down shirt it's 2 pieces. Watch our tutorial on the button band to get an idea on how it's done. th-cam.com/video/OGKoGsZ8Ga8/w-d-xo.html You could make your own pattern for the button band, it's basically just a rectangle that's the length of the front bodice and the width is: desired width x 2, plus seam allowance. Then you can cut a copy of your front bodice down the center and add seam allowance to this edge. Hope that gives you some direction.
love this! so helpful!
I do not like a hook and eye closure on a top. Can this replace the slit with facing and hook and eye a pattern calls for?
+Sheri Sterling instead of a hook and eye, you can do a small button and a button thread loop. It's more time consuming but I think makes it look more couture.
+Professor Pincushion start cating
nice way
Thanks madam!
