The Making of my Basic Jersey & Woven T-Shirt *No Overlocker Required*

- Hi folks, in this weeks video I show how I made my latest T-shirt. If you watched my plans video you will know that I was aiming to come up with a T-Shirt made from woven and jersey fabrics for a couple of friends, neither of which have an overlocker so I had to get creative on the construction method. I was able to do this by using a fabulous tip supplied by Wendy B, see “the making of a twist neck dress” for details. Thanks again Wendy 👌I hope you enjoy. Susanne 💕

This top is lovely. I really appreciate the wonderful contrast of the fabric colours too. It makes the demonstration so much clearer and easier when trying to understand the different facets of the design. Beautifully crafted, both the top and the video.
Your use of two fabrics makes this the best burrito method demo!
Hi Suzanne! You take a simple t-shirt and turn it into a work of art. Such fascinating and ever so helpful tips and techniques for upscaling the wardrobe. I'm in awe of your creativity and talent. I look forward to your Friday morning videos. Sending Big Hugs. Have a great weekend.
Thanks so much Eva💕💕💕 apologies for the delayed response, I’ve taken a leaf out of your book and been away for a few days👌👌👌 I hope all is well with you and you’re having a fabulous week 💕💕💕💕💕
Beautiful top, the fabric so pretty and the piping just makes it perfect. Thank you for posting x
My second time viewing this particular video:I just love this t-shirt! And, the tips that you included, as well!
I’ve just discovered this video. I can’t wait to watch your others. This is brilliant.
Wow...I am 🤯 on this one. Sooo lovely! I learned a lot on this vlog. Thank you sooo much and the top turned out absolutely beautiful!!! Well Done!
I LOVE YOUR TOP. WOWW!
Susanne, I always enjoy watching you take a simple project to the next level, all whilst providing excellent tips and techniques.
Your lovely friends will adore this top-I certainly do!
Thanks so much Laura💕💕💕 fingers crossed they do indeed like it🤞🤞🤞
Love your videos! easy to follow. I always learn something that improves the equality of my sewing. Thank you!
Super video, Suzanne. Yes please show us the drafting of this cute top. Lots of tips & techniques to learn. Thanks for the upload.
I'd love to see how u design from ur blocks. Thx for sharing
Really beautiful - in looks and construction 🤗
👍👍👍
Absolutely love it
Very clever! Very nice
I agree with all the comments - an excellent job of sewing and finishing! Yes I would like to see how you drafted the pattern too as I am learning to sew knit fabric tops. Thank you
Your top Suzanne is beautiful. I love the fabric you used and the shape of the top! Amazing how you work a full time job and sew so much. You have lots of good energy. Kris
This technique takes your home sown garments to professional status. A little bit of extra work but will make up for the longevity of wear in the garment and the look. Thanks for all the tips and references. Brilliant job.
I’ve been sewing for years, at least I thought I was lol. Now, I watch these beautiful techniques and I’m not sure what I’ve been doing. Absolutely enjoyed you video!
Suzanne, what a lovely top. All your details make that a $200 top instead of just a RTW top. Beautiful fabric, top and you look so pretty and feminine in it.
You’re very kind Anne, thank you💕👍💕
Brilliant.I love that you show you actually sewing and don't jump that stage .
Complimenti! Una bella maglietta, con belle rifiniture, come piacciono a me! Bel Tutorial!
Beautifully done. Very expert.
I never understood the burrito method until now. Beautiful top.
I learn so much from your tutorials. These finishing techniques are so satisfying. I find that the beautiful neat wrong side is very rewarding, makes the effort worthwhile.
Your technique is amazing and your explanation is well timed and thorough. Thank you!
I’ve just come back to watch this video for the third time. I love how neatly your garments are finished and I have learned a few great techniques from watching you sew. Thank you!
Great information...needle size & stitch length... PLUS I. All encased seams & hem. AND last but not least I. The pattern and colors complement your figure and your skin tone... Perfection !!!!
Brilliant! I need this top in my life. Thank you for such a clear video x
Beautifully finished, inside and out. I love seeing how you did the facing in the yolk with no raw edges -- so helpful. Cheers!
Susanne, very well done as usual! Your top is beautiful and packs so many wonderful techniques inside. I really like every detail, the use of 2 different types of fabric, the neckline, and the piping. I have only used bias tape to hem in a way that I didn't want it to show. I have learned from you how to properly sew bias tape on a hem when you want it to show. You came up with some great ideas! I do not have an overlocker & my zigzag cam inside my machine no longer works on my 30 something yr. old viking. For the first time, I recently sewed the flat felled seams on 8 pairs of flannel pajama shorts I made for my two daughters & two of my grandsons. In the curve at crotch area I used homemade flannel bias tape. I made one piece patterns with no side seams. Thanks so much for teaching me so many things today.. Take care & God Bless.
Lovely...great tips, many thanks..
Sooo beautiful and easy!!! Thank u !!!
I learn so much from you in every video. Thank you for so many tips and insights. This is a wonderful T-shirt with an impeccable finish. I love it!
thanks so much Yazmin, it makes my day to hear that the content is useful💕👍💕
You are a great teacher Suzanne, thank you so much. Looks like a make that would work for so many things. You wouldn't have to worry at all about closures.
👍👍👍
Brilliantly make, as usual. Some great tips and explained so clearly, thank you X
Just beautiful!
Great video I'll have to try it
Just wonderful! Another superb video. Yes! Please do a draft video. 🙂
Good construction and tips here, thanks.
It's the first time I see any of your videos. What a great video! Slow pace but not boring with great explanation. Love it!
Came across your video channel and I love how easy you explain the steps. Love this top and now I will be searching for a pattern similar. Thank you!
Lovely top and great tips!
You are a very good teacher, thank you.
Lovely job as always Susanne - thanks for sharing your skills 🤓
Beautiful fabric, a wonderful method
Happened across your video. Wow, you are one neat and tidy, skilled seamstress! Thanks for the fantastic camera work demonstrating your skills and great tips and techniques. I believe I can do this...
Gorgeous! Thank you!
Gorgeous top! Never thought of combining two different types of fabric, but it does make sense to make it more interesting and comfortable. Enclosing all the seams is a neat trick instead of serging, which is my usual method. Thanks for the great video. You make it look so easy.
Great video! Thanks for sharing. I've sewn for years and never knew about the way you enclosed the neck and shoulder seams! I need more videos like this! Absolutely gorgeous top! You make it look so easy.
Perfect stitching .
Thank Susan for that beautiful little number i enjoyed your work gracefully I truly appreciate your time to share with us thank you n good job
Absolutely gorgeous, finished with amazing precision. Your girlies are lucky to get all those invaluable tips, oh, and of course you too 🙄😉.
The tip for the hem works beautifully if doing a curve or a circle skirt as it makes it so much easier as we saw with your hem
Perfect and so pretty on you.
Is there a colour you don't suit 🤔, I know you love blues and cobalt, you seem to be able to wear any colour, which is terrific, I'm emerald with envy 🤢🤭😍
💕💕💕💕💕
It's beautiful and your technique is impressive. I learned several things watching this. Thank you.
Well done!! One of the best explained videos on RUclips 😍
Love all your videos Suzanne. You always show all the details which helps me learn visually. Love the finished top.
Thanks Lisa, its so nice to hear the detail is appreciated 💕👍💕
Super cute!

Love your tutorials! Thank you so much for the effort
Thank you for sharing.
Love the finishing techniques!! Makes such a difference in look and design! Kudos!!!💕💕
What a superb top Suzanne! It truly is a thing of beauty:) The floral looks so wonderful with the red piping and solid back. I picked up quite a few tips watching your video. I've never tried the burrito method but I'm sure I will refer back to this once I need to use that technique. Thank you for sharing!:)
What a lovely top . Beautiful. 💐🎽🤗thanks for sharing.
Gorgeous top Suzanne and I would love to see how you drafted this 👌😁💝😘
SUPER! ! ! ! ! !
This is such a classy blouse. Your work is top quality. I too would love to know how you drafted a paper pattern please!
Your test in choosing colours is so high. I like the colours 💕💕
Nice. Love your tip. It is like sewing in zipper with lining. All enclosed
Great top and wonderful finishing techniques. Well done Suzanne!
Brilliant video, so detailed really clear as to the different techniques, and beautifully finished on the inside. I would love to see how this lovely top is drafted, just getting back into sewing clothes and keen to learn how to draft my own patterns xx
Another very stylish make! Love the piping and the lining idea.
Fabulous tutorial with each step to the finished garment!
I really enjoyed watching this video 😉
Great job Susanne - very neat seams and love the piping treatment idea. Well done!
I love the top!

OMG! So great. Beautiful shirt. Love your style of teaching.
❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful. Love the finishing techniques!
Oh, how I missed your videos while I was away Susanne! Well, I'm back and now I'm going to catch up on what I have missed! As always, a clear, concise and brilliant tutorial (it's the first 'burrito method' tutorial I have ever understood, you explain it so simply! I also loved that you put the bias tape on the neckline BEFORE stitching the front and back together . . . genius! It makes a 'fiddly' job so much more simple! Another tip I loved, was the stitch line to guide your hem folding! I learn so much from you!! You are the best! The little top is stunning and looks so high end (as all your makes do). As always TFS your talent! Off to watch the pattern drafting now! 👍👍😍❤😘
That look so easey,it got me to thinking the piping was so kool I can switch up an make SEVERAL designs with this pattern (
WELL DONE👍👍👍👍👍
Beautifully done, thank you.
Brilliant video! I shall be watching again! Kind regards from Penny in Liverpool 😊💕
