    Jesus!! If you didn’t catch it he first time, rewatching it helps. This is the best altering video on TH-cam as of now.

    What a fine a gentile lady . Blazers are a small hobby of mine . I don't know much about sewing , but i understood the video , what a good result with that blazer . Maybe an advice : if you are so agile and creative with clothes , why not start your own shop or even your own label . Making a future of a passion is never perceived as work . Erwin , Belgium .

    Wow this is super cool. You made it look so easy. I don't have a sewing machine, but I can do this by hand.

  • @alaskastyle89
    @alaskastyle89 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Thank you! I have a very hard time finding a blazer that fits, and in the plus size world they kind of expect you to wear a shapeless sack or something with tacky flash stuck to it. It will be good to use this to find something that fits my largest measurement and take everything else in for something that actually fits and looks professional.

  • @ttrexuwu

    This video can save you $25 or more. It is extremely helpful. If a person learns how to alter the coat, sleeve length, waist, and pant length. They can save $100+ in tailoring cost.

    This is awesome! I'm not really a fresh beginner, and still learning.. I've been asked if I can take in a friends hunt coat for her horse shows.. I've wanted to do the same for my extra skinny daughter, but didn't know how to and was nervous because these jackets are a bit pricey.. I am now confident I can do this.. Beside I can always refer back to your awesome video for help!!

    Are you sure this is "super beginner friendly"? I have no idea what's going on...

    • @TwinklingMysticShot
      @TwinklingMysticShot 5 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Paul Gowler Maybe it is hard to understand because she uses sewing conceptions that beginners usually do not use, and also it is a jacket with two layers of fabric and many seams so it might be confusing. Maybe she needs to explain the conceptions she uses more in other videos, tho it is easy to forget when you are so used to only use those conceptions without explaining them. Only talking from my experience. I might be tottaly wrong.

      ive have seen some negative harassing speech towards you in asking you if you were stupid or to re-watch the video again and negative comments. how very rude. If you arent experienced as some are it doesnt mean you are stupid. the video is fast. the video doesnt show inside the jacket under the lining as she was using chalk to rub against the seams that were pinned form the outside. she marks it with the piece of chalk then takes out the pins form the outside of jacket . the opening at the bottom of the lining gives you access to the inside of the jacket seams. turn the jacket inside out thru that opening. sew the jacket seams then sew the lining seams then return the jacket right side out. all seams are pressed dont cut off edges of any of the seams. then sew the bottom of the ling back where you opened it.

      I am a beginning level tailoring student in my own estimation still. I have been looking a various web-based and TH-cam tutorials on the subject for about a half year and trying to replicate the results. I absolutely would not have understood this when I started out. "Beginner" lasts for a while in almost any skill worth having. I'd go look at some other videos and come back later, Paul.

    • @SewAddicts
      @SewAddicts  5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hi Florinda, It is really difficult to pin by yourself. Best advice is to wear the jacket, eyeball how much you may need to take in. Take off and pin when laid out. Keep trying on jacket until the right fit then sew. Hope this helps! x
