Hi there, I like the easy way you teach how to draft a shirt but I am wondering about the Shirt you are wearing in this video, and if you drafted it? Sweetie, you have a Turtle Shell forming at your back neck while you are standing still. The back Shoulder Slope is too steep and is causing drag lines across your front neck area to centre front. You probably have a nice build up of muscle along the shoulder and need to flatten the slope. I haven't seen anyone draft a shirt for muscle shoulders. I have only heard RUclips's Gentleman Jim, talk about having to round up the back shoulder while he was doing Suit alterations. Tailor had 40 years of experience, even working in Show Biz. Drafting for a muscle man's shape might help a lot of guys out there. LOL I had one, and miss him dearly.
Sewing that accurately with a zigzag presser foot is amazing.
I watch you all the time. I enjoy your tutorial. Very, Very good.
I'm glad to hear it. Thank you. 🙏🏻
Awesome explanation 👍🏽👍🏽
🤠🙏🏻
Thanks for that, it put a great smile on my face! What a “nifty” Sewing video you two!
Thank you and thanks for watching!
Cornelius Quiring is just such a great name - like a book character name. “Along the wet, moon-bright cobbles of an alley bounded by the match-factory wall, the footsteps of Cornelius Quiring echoed, too loud in his own ears…”
ha! What a visual picture you can paint with your words :) That was delightful.
Cool that you got a free functional machine in your buildings laundry room but a PSA to people leaving electronic stuff in laundry rooms or at their curb side for giveaway: do the people who take it a favour and write a note that says “free and works!” and tape it to the item. Then we aren’t wasting our time taking a broken and unusable object. Thank you for coming to my TED talk!
And thank you for delivering such a succinct talk as well :)
I use one of these all the time sewing. Very handy. Great for knitting and checking gauge too.
Now I understand why you look vaguely familiar. I have known a fair few mennonite descendants in Saskatchewan.
We do have a look :)
In alterations, it's almost impossible to use this way. Most clothes are bound so tightly, or are made of fabrics so delicate that the fabric itself will get pulled into the path of the seam ripper instead of just the stitches
Yes, it seems sometimes this technique doesn't work.
I'm sorry, I've watched it four times but still not get it, the collar pattern include says it's interfacing pieces? So how about the fabric pieces? Thank you bro
Same size, just add seam allowance.
I still have mine despite the fact that I wasn't an avid sewer. I wasn't aware of some of these uses.
I have to buy one!
Do you top stitch your front crotch curve? And if so, do you clip it to avoid bubbling? I hate the bubbles but I feel like clipping compromises the strength of the seam... Would love to get your thoughts!
Yes, I do topstitch it. I find the key is to go slowly and readjust the fabric (with the needle down) a couple of times when I'm working my way along.
My son, who is in the military, saw mine sitting on the table one day and asked if I took his. I said, "Nope, it was used for sewing long before the military incorporated its use.
:)
This vid came at the most perfect time! I just had a hellish experience with a stretchy knit fabric and tried to find the stitch that would make it easier. The technique you’ve provided here has given me an idea for my next attempt with an overcast foot. I’d love to see shorts for the other obscure stitches. The way you take your time in explaining things is just so helpful!
There will be more coming indeed. I hoe your future knit projects turn out better.
Andddd subscribed, this is great content; very nice production quality, it’s better than legacy media by far
You are kind, thank you!
Thank you for this I'm very happy .I'm making one .excellent tutorial
Good on you! I hope it turns out well.
Commenting to boost the algorithm and because i don't have anything creative or witty to say 🤠
You really are a true hero!
I always watch your informational tutorial. They are very, very good. Your instructions are very useful. Thank You.
Thank you. I'm glad to hear it.
Wait so the raw denim is the coated but unwashed denim? Or is it raw before it gets jellied and the jelly makes it not raw?
What makes it raw is that it hasn't been washed (which shrinks the fabric). The starch is for the weaving process.
@@CorneliusQuiring thank you!
Can you get medium to heavy weight non-stretch denim there, as well? I would like to try replicating my favorite pair of jeans, but all the denim I can find at local stores is lightweight or stretch.
I would reach out to the email on their website and ask them what they have. Emre, owner of FabricLA, and his team are great people.
I appreciate the hat switches
Thank you. 🙏🏻
Bless you Corn. Lets make beautiful clothes, to fit our beautiful bodies. In all shapes and sizes.
Indeed, let's do that!
What about the front side curve deeper?
Yep, that can be done.
Happy people order clothes from you. Thank you for your interesting videos.
Thank you. 🙏🏻
Yeah, I never appreciated this tool until I took a sewing class at my community college. Now it’s a “must have”.
Can I use to to make men's joggers?
Stretch denim is so bad for the environment and has a short lifespan in garments please don’t advertise that shit
I appreciate you sharing what your thoughts.
Thank you for making this video and all the helpful comments it spawned. Opened up a whole new world of use for my nearly 100 - year old gauge. All I knew was how to hem with it.
I'm happy you found this video useful!
In the 1990s I bought unwashed Levi's Jeans - they were 3 to 4 sizes too big and shrunk to my size after the first washing.
oh, nice!
Why do I automatically trust you?
I still suggest a few of your own Googles :)
So, what is the attraction of raw denim?
Between the wrinkles and them shrinking to mold to your body, raw denim jeans become unique to your body.
Stone washed puts the "wear fading" in standard places. Breaking in your own pair personalizes it to you.
Raw denim can be, and was originally meant to be, “shrunk to fit” … like this: ruclips.net/video/roBkw0RfY-Q/видео.html
Thank you for sharing what you know.
🤔IF you sprayed starch on them are they raw again 🤣🤣
That's a great question, haha. Washing does also shrink the denim, so unfortunately they're only raw once :)
Absolutely adore your content. I am so thankful for your information
Thank you. 🙏🏻
I heard some bits of many the languages I know :D English, Swedish, Dutch, German, Latvian. amazing!
Wow, I'm impressed by your many languages.
Or I could just wash my clothes like a normal person, not like some posing hipster. It is possible to restarch clothes as the Victorians and Edwardians can attest.
they're denim jeans, you won't actually have to wash them anytime soon and restarching wouldn't yield the same results nor would it be convenient. are you daft?
@@user-jk7vp7vn2k This is not a helpful comment when you insult somebody. Please refrain from doing so.
If you would like to achieve a stiffer appearance after washing, it helps to hang dry them instead for tossing them in the dryer. Washing removes the starch as well as some of the dye and the chemicals so bugs won't eat the fabric. Unfortunately washed jeans wont look new for forever.
Yes but real denim blue jeans wear out 5 times faster if you wash them EVERY wear. Most people i know only wash them if they stink or thwy are dirty.
Lol
Haha as a sewer I thought this video was hilarious and informative. I had my grandmother to explain to me what a seam gauge is... many people don't!
That is wonderful and you are lucky indeed.
Very entertaining! Great sense of humour! Thank you! And very useful info! Love your videos, keep doing a good job!
Thank you. More to come :)
❤
I’ve had one for decades and I use it for hemming and random measuring.
Cornelius, you are courageous. You’re smart, kind, handsome and strong. You are my new favorite super hero!
You are kind with your words, thank you.
@@CorneliusQuiring 💙
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I have a hell of a time buying pants that fit my 5’5” body because I have shorter legs. I would typically wear a medium sized pants, but since my legs are so short, I usually need to buy a boy’s size xtra large so that the bottom hem doesn’t drag on the floor. I’ve ruined so many pairs of pants trying to make adjustments and never get it right. Your explanation of why the pattern is shaped as it is was brilliant! Everything made perfect sense and was logical. Now I can see the bigger picture. Your paper and fabric models were exactly what I needed to see. A 3-D visual helped everything make sense and when it did, I was blown away! Duh! lol! You are the master and I just made you a thank you cake…but I ate it. Yes, all of it because now I know where to make adjustments when I become “full-figured”, ha! Thanks again, pal!
Not a worry, I already had cake for breakfast :) I am glad to hear that my video was of use to you. Thanks for watching am may future pants fit just as you hope.
@@CorneliusQuiring thank you, sir. And cake for breakfast, ♥️!
I swear to god every time I draft sleeves I panic then I come back to this video and think “ oh right ! “
I'm glad to hear it :)
Great video but I would like to add that pulling off the teeth with pliers works best when working with a good quality, or heavier weight zipper. My experience with pulling teeth from a lightweight or inexpensive zipper was that it made the zipper fabric start to unravel. I ended up needing to singe the unraveling edges with a lighter to prevent more unraveling. Was very messy and didn't look good.
Oh, interesting. Thanks for sharing you experience. I can imagine it did not look good indeed.
Thank you so mcuh for making this video! I've been sewing for years and I always avoid zippers but I've been able to follow along your explanation and it turned out perfectly.
oh nice. Good on you for tackling zippers.
Would love to see you also tackle a vest pattern like this. Super helpful and inspiring videos!
Thank you for the suggestion. I will consider it for a future video.
Your videos are absolutely second to none. I’ve learnt in 20 minutes what I’ve been trying to figure out for the past 6 months. Your explanations and demonstrations are brilliant
oh wonderful, I am glad to hear that my video was of use to you.
