    I started watching this video so I didn't mess up while cutting my shirt, but I completely forgot about my shirt your voice was so soothing I started to relax and simply just wanted to listen as I napped

    Thank you! I've wanted to do this several times, but didn't want to just cut into my knit shirts. I appreciate your attention to hand stitching--it seems like it's a dying art.

    Thank you for this detailed video with great instructions. It is so relevant today, Monday, May 27, 2024 as I have ordered several Adidas crew necks that MUST be made into a more feminine 'v' neck.

    This was very helpful. I don’t like those tight T shirt collars either - but I want to wear a rock band tee sometimes.
    I love the clarity of the video - and I love your stubby little fingers.

    Thank you SO MUCH! I don't sew and I have watched tons of these that I could never follow. But I think I can actually do what you've outlined here. I have to modify a family Xmas shirt with a crew neck and was desperate to find something. Thank you so much for this helpful video! Now I will be able to match the family at Xmas and not feel choked all day long. :) lol

    Looks like a micro-picot edging. Thanks! I have a t-shirt in the closet that will get this v-neck finish. I can’t have anything close to my neck either.

    I was watching somebody else's video on how to make a v-neck out of a T-shirt a ruin the entire shirt because her details were not there. She didn't explain a lot of small things that would have prevented me from ruining that shirt. I really liked your slow methodical and deep explanation of everything you did and I'm looking forward to finding more of your videos.

  • @ronniemueller5772
    @ronniemueller5772 5 лет назад +3

    Thanks for the video! Clear and easy to follow! The only thing I would add is to bury the tail as you complete the three knots at the end by running you still threaded needle through a single layer of fabric on the back side of the shirt making sure it doesn't show on the front and then clipping it close to the fabric. Just an added protection from unraveling.

  • @margitrickey9494
    @margitrickey9494 Год назад +3

    Please consider using a contrasting colored thread and mention you are using a round ended needle. Your video was the best I have seen. Excellent slow speed, close ups and ease of understanding your instructions. Thank you.

    Super! I just saw a couple of great t-shirts at Dollar Tree, but neckline to small for my comfort, absolutely going to do this 'cause I really like v-neckline. Thanks so much.

  • @jillhughes723
    @jillhughes723 8 месяцев назад +1

    Thank you. I needed to alter t-shirts so I don't feel choked. This is a nicely finished shirt--without mutilating it! My work has themes from time to time and I don't have a choice but to wear t-shirts. Possibly: for the edges, sew the "V" with a touch of lace, satin ribbon, or Ric-rac.

  • @203patinala
    @203patinala 5 лет назад +4

    Awesome, thank you for sharing! I don't like crewneck shirts either. It would also be cute and easy to add tiny little stripes of same fabric or complimentary fabric across the V neck to help keep it laying flat. If you use a different fabric you could add it to the sleeves. I think I may do that and roll the sleeves a couple times, tack on a little stripe and I might even find cute buttons to use to put the stripe on the sleeves and add one at the V. Ribbon would be cute too. Girl, you have gotten me inspired, lol.

    Hello! Thank you for the tutorial, I’m trying to fix a tight tshirt neck and every other video required a sowing machine, cutting off lots of fabric or had complicated instructions. I’m not the best seamstress but I believe I’m capable of following your video and getting a decent result haha. Thanks so much, have a wonderful day! :)

    Thank you, this was easy to understand. Not just that, instructionally it was simple and well-demonstrated (although on that note, thank you for the close-ups!), but also that you spoke clearly and not too fast and didn't play distracting music in the background. You just told us what we needed to do, and why, and that was that! I actually feel comfortable enough now after watching this to make my own attempt. Again, thanks! : D

    This was the easiest solution I've seen. I used that ironable fusing tape so I didn't even sew, but the way to go about it was genius! Thank you.

    I just bought 13 t shirts on sale with crew necks that I hate! This video was so perfect for me to now cut myself and stitch up!! I did wonder if you could use iron on webbing like for hems just to be sure everything stays down nicely? But not sure how that works on stretch t-shirt material. Again, I love this video and would echo the comments of R MH below my comments!

    • @Jean78578
      @Jean78578  2 года назад +1

      Yes. It would be helpful. I would still sew it though as the iron-on material usually disappears over several washes..
