Karina, I realize you did this video three years ago, but I am just now making my first Melody Dolman. Your technique for creating a back facing and sewing the collar are ingenious. Takes a lot of stress out of this make. Thank you!!
I made one the other way and didn’t enjoy it at all. Now I am very excited to make my next one and many more.
Just got through doing 2 shirts with this collar…it took 2 entire days, and lots of swear words, all because of the camp collar/facing! So happy you have the mind for figuring this these things out for us. Think I’ll nominate you for a Nobel Peace prize….this will keep me from murdering my shirts in the future! Xx
Oh! My gosh! I had a blouse ready to sew & I was dreading to add the collar. Like you said it is perfect easy. , it took me less 30 minute to sew the collar &add it. I will definitely be adding collars now. I am 84, & have been sewing most of my life, this is the best tip ever. Thank you.
You are a genius! The striped shirt is absolutely stunning.
Love the ease of collar
This way is super enjoyable:)
You have the best method ever! Thanks for sharing it with us. Love your shirts. Very good video. 😀
Love the way you teach Karina. Thank you. xx
You’re very welcome 😉
I have always avoided any shirt pattern with this type of collar after my first attempt failure decades ago. Now I'm anxious try again. I am oh so thankful you have the heart of a teacher and the mind of an engineer.
I hope this helps. It makes it ever so much easier and faster :)
So nice, black shirts comes always handy. Insp. stripe-play. Thanks :-)
Wearing sexy Notched Collar and Pocket Shirts always inspire me to "play!"
Awesome video!!! Thank you!!!
You’re very welcome 😉
I love your collar technique.
Thank you so much ☺️
The black shirt looks wonderful with that skirt!
Thanks for sharing.
Absolutely love this technique.
This is so much better . Gorgeous . I am addicted to your channel ! Greetings from Melbourne Australia.
aaaaaaaa, a day late and a dollar short ! Di a collar ysterday and sniped to short. Can't wait to do this on the next one. Thank you!
When I sew this traditionally I don’t snip until I have the collar placed where it need to be. I snip at the end exactly at the shoulder seam
Thank you! I am about to try that technique. 👍
Have fun!
The variasions with the stripes are striking!
Thank you so much 😊
that you for sharing this clever technique
Love your shirts both of them. Love that you shared this technique, it does make attaching a collar match easier. Years ago , more years than I care to remember, I saw in a ready-made garment where the collar was stitched similar but instead of creating a facing, bias tape was used and was caught under the front facing at the shoulder. The bias tape was then stitched down under the collar area. I have been using that method ever since for this type shirt. Thanks for sharing your techniques and knowledge.
The shirts are adorable! I have made shirts using this technique! Thanks for reminding me!
Yay we need to retrieve these tricks :)
What clever way to do that collar. I've always hated those kinds of collars. I liked the kind with collar stands... more work, but looks better, but I'll definitely be trying this!!!!
Thank you for posting!
Love your tips & your tops!!!
That strip play looks like such fun 🙂
Oh Karina! Thank you so much for this method. That collar on the Melody Dolman has given me fits and I am so hopeful that this resolves this issue for me so I can fully enjoy this pattern. Love it!
You can make 10 now :) this is very easy.
Amazing
Very clear tutorial. Thanks Karina!
You’re very welcome 😉
I know this video is 2 years old,, but I wish I would have seen this earlier today. I made the Melody Dolman and the colar their way which was a pain. Thanks when I make another one I'll do it this way. Drafting the back facing now so I'll remember.
This method is SOOOOO helpful and brilliant! Thank you.
You’re very welcome 😉. I made my shirts to easy this way :)
Excellent! Thank you!
I’m glad you liked it :)
Great easy way to make the collar!
Thanks for the detailed information! I watched the other show about the Melody shirts you have made and I hope the water problems are better.
This was a fun make to watch. I like it without the cuff on the sleeve, it gives a better silhouette.
This is soooooo good. Thank you!!!
I’m glad you like it and I hope you try it :)
You are so engaging. I love the styles you show. The shirt suits you - I like the hem curves. Thanks for sharing the collar tips - much appreciated.
Thank you so much for sharing this technique Karina, I'm going to put a note on my pattern to remind myself to rewatch this video before I make my next Melody Dolman shirt.
I’m sure you’ll enjoy the process like this. Thank you so much for watching:)
Me too!!!❤️
GreatTip. I missed the sale as only just saw your video, but had to have it and as it will be a staple, if it supports your work it is well worth it.
Namaste nightdress will be finished today anyway so something new to start on. Thanks Karina.
Thanks, your instructions so neat and so clear.
This will be my first blouse in years--your collar instruction will make sewing it a breeze. Thank you so much!
This is awesome! Thank you for this and the tip to add a facing to the Rhapsody. Game changers!
I’m glad they help. Facings are often ignored and they are awesome :)
Agree with you on the button placement on the pattern. I just see that as a suggestion. Placement of the one at apex level is crucial. 💕
Please continue to share your expertise 🤞🙏❤️
Awesome technique to add a back facing!! I'm definitely going to do this. Thanks!!!
Go for it! Let me know how it goes :)
Your method is very practical, thank you !
I’m glad you like it 😄
Thank you so much! I just did this on a Wardrobe By Me pattern and it was so much easier!❤
Love this technique... I had a pattern years ago that did this n I had forgotten... thank you very much... love your stripping n doing a good basic black ... we forget how much the basics go with our pretty patterned makes... always enjoy your ideas n videos... your attention to detail really shows... thank you for all the hard work... its always a pleasure to view your videos... blessings
Thank you so much 😊 for all the kindness. This method is truly awesome, fast and clean :)
Super cute, LOVE IT! 😍
Wonderful collar trick, trying for sure
Thank you so much Karina. I love the Melody dolman and this will make my life so much easier ❤️👌
Wow! Thank you!!! I have always hated the traditional way of putting in Camp collars. I only wish there were written instructions I could save!
You can always come back to this. I really can’t provide written instructions. It’s a workload I can’t take on.
nice technique, thanks for sharing, subscribing now
Awesome, thank you!
Yay! I just bought this.
Awesome! Have fun :)
Such a great idea so simple thank you 😊
Genius. I have this pattern and probably the perfect fabric for it. I’ll use your hack for sure.
Wow!! Great technique! Thanks so much for sharing ❤️
This is great! I love it!! Thank you so much!!!
I hope it makes sewing easier for you 😃
I purchased the pattern through your affiliate link! Question: How would you adjust the pattern to make the shirt a V neck, without the collar? Could you make a video on this? Just so we have more ways to sew up this pattern!!! Thank you~
what a great idea...I have been sewing for over 60 years & make many camp collar shirts...will absolutely try this technique on my next project.....
Thanks Karina. Always hated back facings because they curled and didn't fit even when stay stitching. Going to try block fusing. Love this technique.
Block fusing makes all the difference. When you find that the facings fit, it makes all the difference 😀
What type of interfacing do you recommend?
@@donnastiles8876 sorry but I use non brand interfacing here in Brazil. All I can say is that it is light weight and it does not stretch at all.
Brilliant . Thanks for sharing
Thank You, Thank You 😊
I am 3 days, 3 whole days trying to figure out a pattern with camp collar, & within 5 minutes of watching your video & hearing you explain, I was able to complete my collar. So again, Thank you for your videos & in depth explanation.
The tops look so nice! If you are inclined, I would be interested in a tour of your sewing feet -- when you use which one. :-)
Wow! I just made Melody as Love Notions instructs. It wasn’t too hard. But yours looks good too!
Next I’ll try yours! Thank you!
I have a recent video that shows the traditional camp collar like the instructions: ruclips.net/video/vlRC55Nq2U0/видео.html
I love your channel,thank you for this tutorial. I was so frustrated with sewing collars, I will try this technique.
Hi Karina what a lovely blouse pattern and made beautifully as usual I might have to think about printing this one off😂 somehow. Grandson came over and printed off the tee.👍
Oh make the most of you grandson!
wow - I have almost fished my first Melody toile - I think it may be wearable. I love your no-longer-secret way of sewing the collar, it's a gamechanger for me. Thank you!!!
Genius. I've been sewing over 50 years and loved tailoring but never, ever saw this technique. Sadly I'm more into knits these days.
Love this tutorial Karina ❤️
I’m so glad! Than you for watching/)
Good tip. I like the striped dress you made.
I love this pattern I have made 2 and I thought it was pretty easy
Wow! Love your energy and happiness in this video! Your makes are always stunning and helpful!
what a fabulous hack ! i have made a few Melody Dolmans, but the collar construction was a total game changer! Thanks so much for taking the time to share this. I love your tutorials :)
Definitely drafting the back facing for my next Melody Dolman - this is WAY easier than the clip technique. Love the stripes going different directions too!
Brilliant. I wish I had seen this last week when I made a disaster of a collar and nearly threw the whole thing out. It looks like garbage. I knew there had to be a better way!
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. I made the collar before I watched your vlog. I like your way much better. Again, thank you.
Wow wow wow . I can't wait to try it ☺️
Hope you enjoy
Thank you for this amazing tip! So brillant and class! 👍💕
So glad you liked it :)
You are a genius Thankyou for giving up so much of your time to teach us. I really need this video right now ❤❤
Thank you Karina, I followed your link to purchase this pattern and can’t wait to try your back facing technique. Beautiful shirts!
Your videos are fabulous. Donna H
Lovely 🙂
Oh my goodness this is so much easier....Thank you so much!
Thank you Karina! You are so generous with your many talents. I just made a melody dolman using this technique.
Beautiful work, I am loving your videos, so informative and detailed, I love watching you and listening to your voice 🥰 Thank you for all that you do and show us 🥰🥰
Thank you! This will be the method I will use in future Melody Dolmans.
Just love your instructions. Maybe a little harder to understand, but I get it. You live in Boliva and I live in Oregon, USA. Have you done a video about yourself? I'd love to know about your sewing history, etc. I was born on a farm and I love to hear all the birds signing while your taping. Brings back grand memories...Living in the suberbs I'm noticing that the number of birds have dwindled a lot.Thank you anyway. I'm getting caught up from all the utubers that I like and interesting subject matter. I got hooked around mid 2019 and what a world that has opened up for all. I think and encourage you with all your deep information to write a book. Fill it with pictures also. I think that would be a real winner to say nothing of some extra $$. Thank you again and continued sucess. Kris
Always enjoyable to watch your tutorials. Something I find helpful when attaching collars & facings is to baste (usually by machine) the collar on first. It gives me one less piece to worry about matching properly while seaming all those layers together. Thank you for sharing this because I will be undertaking a camp collar blouse soon.
Yes thank you. This Was exactly what I was looking for and explained in a way that makes perfect sense to me thank you
Ah! I'm making my first Melody dolman as part of matching Hawaiian shirts for me and my husband's honeymoon and I wish I had seen this before I did the collar on my husband's camp shirt! This is an excellent way of doing the collar! I may also omit the cuffs...I'm rush-sewing before we leave this weekend, haha! Thank you for this tutorial!
Thank you for this. I just sewed the Melody and wasn't happy with the camp collar with the partial facing. A back facing makes more sense to me. I'll have to make another Melody.
The pattern has the traditional method and I filmed it here: ruclips.net/video/vlRC55Nq2U0/видео.html but the back facing makes just so much easier :)
I have this pattern and I love it! I will make another one with your collar method. I love the fit of this pattern.
Ive just finished my first Melody Blouse using your method to install the collar. Your instructions and technique are fabulous and I did have success for which I am grateful. As a newbie sewist I have a few "rough edges" to my project - but - practice makes perfect.
I just made my Melody Dolman with this neck facing & I love how it turned out!! Thank you for posting this!!!
Just made my Melody Dolman, used your method and it's turned out perfectly! Many thanks indeed :)
I wish I had found your video before making my first Melody Dolman. I love the finished top, but man, sewing that collar was so frustrating! This technique would have helped so much! Will try this next time. Thank you for sharing the tips!
Love you, you make it so easy! Real master! I'm so greateful ❤️
Hi,. Thank you for your great tips and interesting pattern choice. Your instructions are super. 💖💖💖
i just LOVE this vid! Soooo much grrreat info! I just made this top (& will make more in many colours of linen!) & your info really helped me make a fantastic collar & place buttons so there's no gaping-THANK YOU!!❤️
Hi Karina! I Loved both of your videos on making Camp Collars!🥰 Camp Collars are so stylish and sexy! I LOVE how lovely your Camp Shirts look on you!
My Seamstress makes the Collars of my Camp Shirts larger. To me, a Camp Collar looks so pretty when it's large as seen in the photo of me wearing my Camp Shirt.
I'd LOVE to see you make a video on making a Camp Shirt from a McCall's number 2538 Three Hour Shirt Pattern. The Camp Collar is larger and looks so lovely! I will not do any sewing, but I'm very interested in seeing how it's done! I hope you make the Shirt in a video using the McCall's pattern!
Love all your tips! This was so helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
I am working on this top and this looks like such a great technique I am going to give it a try.
This is sooo much easier than the pattern I bought. Going to create the back facing today ❤️❤️❤️
