I feel called out. I first found you on FMA. I've been spending loads of money trying on different clothes from different brands to find the PERFECT slim fit. I could have saved so much more money and worn so many styles/designs that I liked if I just knew how to tailor! Thanks for redoing your vids, SD.

Thanks Stylish D! I spent the last three days just watching your videos. The are awesome! Coincidentally my neighbor gave me her Brother sewing machine for free and followed all your sewing machine videos among many of your other videos. Love them! I just hemmed rain pants which initially were too long but thanks to you now fit perfectly. My next question is do you have a video how to remove from the sewing machine without having to always rethread the needle? One last question, I put a velcro patch on the front my rain pants- fortunately velcr patch was toward the bottom of pants so still able to cuff around the machine. Suppose I could not cuff around machine, how could you stich on something on front of pants, without machine accidentally going all the way through and also stitching back side of pants also? Thanks again and happy new year!

I found you a month ago by accident just finding "how to tailor at home" videos due to this pandemic when one door closes another one opens and now after watching all your tailoring videos I'm on my way to buying a sewing machine and learning something I've always wanted to do. Honestly thank you brother!

I discovered that clothes shrink an average of 2 sizes during a pandemic, it's very strange, so you all might want to upsize your measurements a bit until it all blows over

Yup! That's how I want to tailor my shirts to look. But being small but built I can't really find shirts that look like the untailored version shown

Thanks! I can’t wait to try this. I’m 5’6” 215lb bodybuilder with broad shoulders and a 31” waist. I have to purchase XL or XXL knits and button downs to fit my shoulders/arms. Worn untucked, my shirts hang 12” past my waist. Worn tucked in, I’ve got an extra wad of fabric on each side. Cheapest tailor I’ve found is $40/shirt and I need about 30 shirts done.

I love the energy, positivity, and enthusiasm you have. It makes me feel less self conscious as a guy trying to tailor my clothes

You should show atleast a few seconds of the final product at the end. Even though you see it at other parts of the video, it feels more complete to see the end result at the end. Great video, just a suggestion!

Thank you, I look forward to try this. I have been having trouble finding a plus size shirt that does not look like a tent for YEARS. This gave me the confidence to try something new.

The fact that you put all this information in such a timely and quick manner while remaining entertaining ALL FOR FREE for us to enjoy and learn from is AMAZING. Thank you SD!

How did it go?

I did it using your four inch rule. Easy peasy -- but I see what you say -- it's super easy to get carried away and make it a tight muscle shirt. I only had to take off max an inch off each side and that make it pretty trim for me. I had three pins, 3/4 inch, 1 inch, 3/4 inch.

Game changer. Man I've found my style guru. My step mom was a seamstress when she was younger. She gave me a good knowledge base on how to sew, but she's not a man, and never taught me tailoring my own clothes so i could look as cold as possible. "Yo Moms, fixing clothes and mending curtains and pillows is cool but I'm trying to leave the club with the flyest honey there, not meet her grandma and discuss doilies". Seriously so stoked I've found your channel.

Thanks for the great tutorials! I've lost about 120 lbs over the last year and have gone through several wardrobes. Since stumbling on your tutorials, I've saved a lot of money by tailoring down one size in many garments. You make everything easy to understand without overwhelming viewers with too many tedious details.

I have been getting pretty confident as I have been sewing together a ton these face masks that we have to wear now (thank you covid-19) and just a few hours ago I gathered up the courage to just try tailoring a t shirt.... and when you say it’s addicting you are not kidding. Yea I may have made some mistakes but right now I am loving how it fits. Keep making videos D cause imma keep watching. Can’t wait to see how these dress shirts come out.

Sir! I just found your channel today. I've already done the "binge" on, like, a dozen of me long-sleeve turtlenecks and another dozen polos. So you were right on that. In another video you showed your machine on a stool? Yeah, I use a corner of my dining room table (the other side of it has my work-from-home computer setup). And I thought I was the only one who worried about the pin direction. So now I'm gonna start on my dress shirts (thanks for the series), and one of my pals who's lost a bunch of weight has already asked if I can alter HIS shirts (when I'd had the machine less than a week)! Yeah, I'm subscribed. I'm checking back in to see what else you got.

I was wondering why you first pin the shirt right side out? I turn the shirt inside out and pin it with safety pins and then turn it right side out and check the fit. Then I turn the shirt inside out again and replace the safety pins with regular pins, usually draw a line between the pins with chalk, and then start sewing.

@StylishDTailors

4 жыл бұрын

That's not a bad idea. Ultimately it comes down to personal preference.

So I have a similar shirt in that I'm only going to bring in the sides just like you did in this video, and I'm going to leave the sleeves alone. My question is, when sewing, as I approach the armpit, do I just sew it right into the existing stitch in the corner and then back stitch? Or should I avoid overlapping into the existing factory stitch? Hope that makes sense lol

@StylishDTailors

Жыл бұрын

Yup makes complete sense, you can just sew straight into the existing stitch if you want too, or even past it a little bit too. There is a ton of flexibility actually!

I came here because I started randomly thinking about dress shirts that I could wear for the next event that I attended that would require a dress shirt. My issue relates to the top button. I’ve never really buttoned the top button of a button up shirt because I was always worried that the button would pinch my Adam’s apple. Do you have any suggestions on how to prevent this from occurring without a collar extender or is this not possible?
