I smiled all the way through this. I love my jacket. Wanted to buy the kit because it's an awesome idea to support designers, in this challenging time. But...I still smiled all the way through. ( I'm decrepit, ancient etc. Designing and sewing, since I was about 5. Several lifetimes). And I still love my jacket.
Corduroy has a definite nap...people should be instructed to ensure all pattern pieces have the same orientation-- not turn upside down to save on fabric.
@@boogaloobomber9889 when you initially lay out fabric for cut, especially if you purchased from a fabric store, there’s already a fold in it. Any pattern pieces that require placement on fold should be pinned in this area. You’re doing so to insure that you are getting a perfectly symmetrical piece as in a collar, some garments that don’t require a seam in the main pieces, etc. The weird edges of the fabric (that weren’t cut at the fabric store) are called selvage edges which should always be even and aligned parallel with the fabric fold for most sewing projects unless noted it should be cut otherwise. When sewing with fabrics like corduroy, velvets and any fabric with a nap (a raised textured pattern in fabric that you can actually feel), the pieces should always be pinned and faced in the same direction. Store patterns usually include arrows on the pattern pieces so that you will always know what direction to cut the pieces on your fabric. Hope I didn’t confuse you and it helps!
Temporarily baste the sleeves together and to the bodice. Try it on and mark with a pencil or chalk on the sleeves where your elbows are. That's how I'd do it.
This is a Carhartt jacket with the top pocket moved to the other side, cuffs, back centre seam and x-fork removed(the standard 10% change required to avoid copyright). Then flowered up with some patches. Its made with such flimsy material it resembles a shirt. You could buy real Duck canvas from BigDuck canvas company, a work jacket pattern and make it for way less than the price of this. Or go hardout and make the pattern yourself. One of the Winifred Aldrich books on pattern drafting, mens, women's or children's are best. This jacket pattern is very easy to do from her books.
I wish every tutorial was filmed just like this. Everything you need, and I didn’t have to increase my playback speed once!
I must be a slow learner! Not getting everything the first time, but plugging away.
I'm shook by how you used NO PINS! Great sewalong. I really want my spouse to order a kit so I can sew it for him.
Amazing content and tutorial, crazy how no one is seeing this...when a tree falls lol
pro tip : you can watch series on flixzone. Me and my gf have been using it for watching lots of of movies lately.
@Phillip Aden Yup, been watching on flixzone for months myself :D

Have my 3 kits -- can't wait to get started. Going to make jazz it up a bit with my fabrics!

So, dont fold it in half before cutting?

Is this the same fabric as the khaki corduroy kit we can order on the website?
GOD LEVEL CODES

Hi! Where can I find this kit? Need it. 🚀
How would you recommend adding elbow patches to this coat? Probably before stitching sleeves, but I am not sure about the placement. Any suggestions?
Temporarily baste the sleeves together and to the bodice. Try it on and mark with a pencil or chalk on the sleeves where your elbows are. That's how I'd do it.
Where can I get this kit???

Where to get the paterns?
@@ElDuardo01 did you ever get to know where to find the patterns? I am looking forward to make this coat
No, im sorry
Yikes! No lining? All those exposed seams? I’m not Project Runway talented, but I wouldn’t take the time to sew a jacket with no lining.
its just a light jacket ma'am nothing wrong with having a variety of weights in ur closet
Nice coat. Tutorial not so good...hard to follow.
