This is fabulous a collar , I was just making a McCall gown and the collar is a mess. Your video just let me see how I can fix it. Thank you for this opportunity to learn something new, I will go buy a pattern just to try you tip. Have a fabulous day from South Africa.
Thank you Karina! I have saved this to my sewing technique file so it's easy to reference. I haven't done a collar without a collar stand yet but now I'm prepared. 💛
Hesitant about sewing anything with a collar execution (the dreaded lump). This technique, I can sew and have it look good. I understand the logic. Thank you for showing us a simpler way. Can finally move forward and try this collar style. The decision on interfacing (how much, type of fabric) was also valuable. Looking forward to more joy ❤️
I just love your hints and tricks Karina. I’ve only ever had the courage to sew a pyjama collar but now I feel confident to have a go at something more ambitious. X
Just wanted to say thank you, this video is so very easy to understand. I have been struggling for days with a neck on a simplicity pattern. Your video was perfect. I now have collar I’m proud of. Thank you again
I found this tutorial so helpful, thankyou. I am looking to adapt a Burda pattern that I have already adjusted to fit me, but dislike the way the front band and collar are attached on the pattern. I am going to try adapting the pattern to reflect the steps you have shown. Many thanks again
Karina if pattern has the front facing not integrated, just a separate facing . Can I just add the separate facing piece to the front pieces ? Or will this mess up my collar pls ? or better leave as is ? I am not an experienced sewist like you are however I love to try yr methods 😋. Thank you for simplifying and showing us great methods that encourages us to continue our hobby 😍
Great video, thanks for explaining it so clearly and for the encouragement! I wonder if there is a tutorial on how to draw a collar on paper. I have a re-cycled jacket where the collar needs replacement, it got stained and ripped so it was taken out, I got the jacket for free but don't know how to draw the shape on paper. I am better at sewing than drawing ! Thank you!
No, I don't have content on how to make small pattern pieces. There is no way I can demonstrate that for an already make jacket where the shape and size is unknown. It's not a rectangle and each pattern has a collar in a unique shape that matches that specific neckline.

Can’t improve on this reply, so… what Natalie said. Thank you!
Now I really want to make a denim jacket, I had a store bought one as a teenager 50 odd years ago 😂😂😂

Thank you so much for teaching this method. I have avoided lapel collars because I just could not get it right. This method gives me hope.
Great info as usual Karina! Definitely will give it a try!
This way it’s super enjoyable 😀
Love this, was just talking to my son about using our jeans that we don't wear anymore to make a Jean Jacket! 😁
I have a small pile of little jeans for this 😀
Thank you for his! It seems so doable! I will definitely look for a jacket pattern now.
It’s very doable 😀😀

Thanks for this tutorial. Why do you have one collar bigger than the other?
Thanks❤❤
Would this work on the Tropicana Shirt?
Yes it would.
