First video I've ever seen that shows how to both taper the shirt and then replicate the flat felled seam. All other tutorials on men's shirts simply show the taper part. But pretty much every men's shirt has a flat-felled seam.
When he sewed the first side he started at the bottom and ended before going into the sleeve. For the other side he started more into the sleeve. For these armpit areas, any reason to not start and end the stitch at the same points?
From what I understand, other than the attachment of the first button, there should be no thread visible on the lining to attach the other 3 buttons. Is this correct? That is, if it is professionally tailored as shown from this video. I just had a jacket altered and the sleeves were not mitered and the threads and knots to attach the 1st and 4th buttons were visible on top of the lining. Is it reasonable to have the tailor re-do the alterations? I am not pleased with his work.
Thanks George. After seeing this video I did it in no time. This is by far the best video of how to actually sew the turn ups. The only thing missing is how to get the correct pant length. Some RUclips videos recommend using inseam measurement, while other videos recommend measuring the out seam. I measured the out seam on another pair of pants I have and that worked perfectly since the rise on pants can vary depending on style and manufacturer.
Thanks for this!!! Heming my sons suit for a wedding and just wasn’t sure proper way! This made it super easy! Also I love the sound of that landline in the background. A nice piece of nostalgia for me
If I am shortening more than 2.5 inches then I will cut off a little fabric. Otherwise, I leave the fabric inside to give the sleeves some body and allow the fabric to hang better
Good morning ,thanks so muvh for sharing your knowledge qith us ,i was wondering if you won't mind to made a video of how to ahorten sleeves on a suit jacket perhaps 2" or more on the sleeves and add a funcional button hole have a great day . Thanks
George, thanks for the video. Beginner here, this solves my frayed edges on straight stich with zig/zag edge. Can this work on tapering long sleeves too?
. . . No nonsense. Thank you.
Detailed work. Great job.
There is no need for blind stitch, since the stitch won't even be visible anyway.
"BRAVO!"

Amazing

I love watching a master-level craftsman demonstrate what decades of skill-building looks like in action. It's like watching an artist paint.
I'm having a problem in knowing what to grab when closing the Vent! And do you answer this question with a reply?
I wish I had your talent and speed, just incredible 🙏
Where is possible to get a button placement guilde like the you made I've tried to make one but it don't come out right! not measuring the distant!
It's hard to see what you're doing when you close the vent, I'm just learning so it's tough to follow step by step here, but it looks great!
GREAT!
You're a genius, thank you for explaining it so simply and clearly. ❤
Best one I’ve seen, thank you
❤
❤
I've really enjoyed thank you once again lovely xxxxx
The videos I've seen so far made this look a lot harder
❤👍
Thank you for sharing!
Why do you not cut the excess material off? What if you are shortening a thicker wool jacket, wouldn't leaving the material on be bulky?
If I am shortening more than 2.5 inches then I will cut off a little fabric. Otherwise, I leave the fabric inside to give the sleeves some body and allow the fabric to hang better
If you are tappering a sleeve and slimming a cuff does it matter if you tapper then altered cuff back on?
