Dear Alisa, thank you very much for the wonderful tutorial, that I used to draft a raglan shirt with short sleeves for my 6-year old. He did even help pinning and sewing and it looks so good although we are not finished yet. It came together so quickly - I will be making a raglan shirt for myself for sure! Thank you for sharing your knowledge on all things sewing that made this success possible.
That is so great - getting your little ones excited and participating, that's awesome, my little one helps too - pinning, cutting the tissue paper, sewing. I am sooo happy for you! Now you can use it for long sleeve, short sleeve, add a hood to it and turn it into a hoodie, make it longer and turn it into a sporty dress for yourself - so many possibilities :)
You're a boss girl. I know to sew by patterns...now I'm a senior I feel blessed to see your teaching. Keep up the good work. You're an inspiration. Blessings.
I made 2 raglan shirts with this tutorial. Thank you for making sewing patterns simple and practical. Your videos definitely brought my love to sewing and crafts! 👍
I have to say every draft pattern I have learned and sewed with your tutorials are A+. I just threw away a premade pattern today because the measurements were so way off. Darts were everywhere! I know I will not use that pattern and everytime I would look at it I would not be happy. From now on only my patterns will be created with your tutorials.You are easy to understand. I have made two garments from your tutorials that fit the best I've ever sewed.
Thank you. This is very helpful! Love how the cat just walked right over and got in the way. My cats looove doing that to me. They like to sit on top of my arms, grab my arms, and headbutt my hands when I'm trying to do stuff. One of my cats just jumped on the keyboard and fastforwarded through the video so I had to go back to where I was before. LOL. The outfit you made for your daughter is adorable!
This is a great idea . I’ve been making a lot of knit dresses and have a lot of good sized square scraps and hate to waste the fabric! I can make a load of these shirts with fun co-ordinating sleeves!
Thank you Alisa, you will be pleased to hear I’ve actually made this awesome sweatshirt with raglan sleeves. I’m so happy, I will definitely be going to make many more. Thank you for being the best teacher, your explanations are spot-on
Wooohooo! WENDY! So great to hear that - awesome! Any chance you have IG account so you can share some pictures? Would absolutely love to see your creations and be inspired!
Love from India 🇮🇳♥ EXCELLENT. This is my long time waiting subject. Appreciate your way of explanation and wonderful tutorial. God bless you. Best Prem
I have always feared my sewing but because of you I achieved sewing 3 vests and 6 scarfs for Christmas. They turned out PERFECT even using faux furr....which is a nightmare.lol
Nice, great job!!! He he, faux fur - for sure is a thing, I usually love the outcome but not so much the clean up, oh my, takes me a few times to get rid of ALL if the fur. So happy for you! You did a lot of sewing! What are you going to make next?
Hi Alisa, I am such a beginner at sewing, not confident at all,lol. But hey,,,,I have made 2 tops from your tutorials, so ,well done you ! You got me there.!, x
Hi Alias, I have wanted to sew raglan sleeve, I Sewing raglan sleeve already but it never turn out well, I will surely try your method for making my, raglan top, Alias ..!I love watch your RUclips channel, I am inspired by you, keep up the great work and If you can do it, I can do it too, You give me assurance of my Sewing Iove you lots Blessing and more Blessed
I just finished my raglan sweater and it's so cute!! I was nervous about sewing the collar but your instructions were spot on. I can see one small part where I didn't stretch it far enough, but other than that it's pretty good for my first attempt 😁 thanj you for sharing! -Michelle
I just love your videos! They make me happy! Also, I use thrifted 2-3-4 x knit shirts to make shirts and bodices and leggings to make my raglan sleeves!!
Cindy, awesome! There is also another video on raglan sleeve blouse/shirt coming up - I just filmed it, probably going to be another 2 weeks until it is edited and ready to go. But wanted to let you know :)
Hi Alisa,my name is Alice I want to thank you for this wonderful tutorial. This is my 2nd time watching it 2 days straight. I'm going for it and make me raglan shirt.My fabric is not too stretchy but this pattern I want to match my bottom I made earlier.Thank you soo much have a bless safe day.....
Do you read minds or sth lol. For the past couple of days I've been searching how to do a raglan sleeve for my new dress and here you go! I'm a beginner sewer btw and have completed one dress after watching your tutorials. This will be my second. love love all your tutorials! This was perfect thank you so much Love from Maldives
I think #DraftingJoy would be a good # for you to adopt, because you are so great at teaching us drafting basics and making them painless and fun! You made a believer out of me.
Thank you for this video, you made it sound really easy to make one :) I love the look of raglan sweaters and will make some for sure! I really like the fabrics you used :D
This was an excellent demonstration video. Cant wait to make several of these and add them to my wardrobe. Will be fun picking out patterns too! Really enjoy wearing super comfy soft jersey long sleeve tops. Loved this demo! Thank you so much!🌻🌻
Could you do a pattern tutorial on a dress, whether with the raglan sleeves or just that one piece dress using your knit top patterns and just adding waist, hips and length? I really want to make one and know it's easy, would just love to see you make this to share with everyone! I LOVE your videos, makes sewing so much easier (not that I need any more clothes! :))
I'm a quilter and am intimidated when it comes to fashion sewing that actually fit me. However, your videos make me feel like I CAN DO IT! So my request to you is to make a scrub top from the basic T-shirt pattern. I would love to see this as I'm embarking on making scrubs for myself. Please help!
Alisa, I need help with fabrics. Did you buy a cotton jersey? Should I search for that when I order or purchase? Thank you for your super tutorials - they are helping me so much!
Go to a couple thrift stores and buy a nice LARGE knit shirt for the bodice part and leggings for the sleeves. This is what I do bcI LOVE thrifting and up-cycling!! I even buy shirts just for buttons, buy shirts just for the bands, I make jackets from jeans and long skirts, silk tanks from thrifted men’s shirts and thrifted silk scarves. Sooooo many more fabric options at the thrift stores!
Hi Alissa...I have a raglan sleeve dress I'm in the middle of. But I want a wide band round neck finish but it needs to incorporate a lapped zip at the back. What's the best method? Wide bias binding or ???...could you cover that. I just think the neck line would be improved this way...Bx
This is so great! If I wanted to make a turtleneck style, would I just extend the height of the neckband to the desired height length of my turtleneck? I feel like it's that easy, but I'm not positive. Thank you!
I'm planning on making this with zippers for my nursing sister, any advices you have for me before i start? And do you happen to have any videos about maternity clothes? Thank you in advance
I love your videos Alisa! With you as an inspiration I am stitching plush pajamas for the family but I don’t know what to use for neckline. Should I use a bias tape if so, do you suggest any that works well with soft plush?
Shilpa, hi! I have a lot of videos on how to finish necklines - please go to my channel page and take a look. It depends if your fabric is stretch or not, if stretch - ribbing is great for pajamas, if not - bias tape will do.
@@ThoughtfulCreativity Thank you for replying, I am going to scour your channel now :-) Btw I thought you should know that your instructions are so easy to follow, I almost always have your videos on auto play and wake up to it. LOL!

I love that you use wrapping paper as patterns! I have tons of wrapping paper. Ha!
I'm really stoked about creating a raglan sleeve! They are so comfortable to wear and I love the look.
Absolutely + you can use your fabric remnants for the sleeves! Win-win!
This is a great idea . I’ve been making a lot of knit dresses and have a lot of good sized square scraps and hate to waste the fabric! I can make a load of these shirts with fun co-ordinating sleeves!
