Hand basting is almost a must for these v neckbands! Always turns out great!

@ThoughtfulCreativity 2 года назад

Exactly!

@debm6507 2 года назад

I love watching different techniques of achieving the same result in sewing. I always learn something from your videos, even though I have been sewing for at least 45 years!

THANK YOU SO MUCH. As a beginner sewer I love your videos. Huge thanks 😊

@veronicamorrison193 Год назад

Thank you for this video. I just sewed a V-neck on a t-shirt with this method. The hand basting made a world of difference. I got the neckline in perfectly on the first try!

@annvan1962 Год назад

FINALLY!!! I've watched a number of videos on 'how to create a V neck. Some of the videos that I have watched are so complicated that I just hit the 'x'. Your video has made this super simple !!! I will be attacking a T shirt tomorrow. Your videos are great and easy to follow and understand - I love them ! Thank you !!!

@lindajeanhouse3795 2 года назад

@teresastevens2084 2 года назад

Bravo! Very well done! I’ve been sewing for over 45 years and I still hand baste when necessary!

@rbrown6476 8 месяцев назад

Thank you so much Alisa! Great timing as always - I’m just about to make up some new T-shirts. I’ve been sewing for more than 50 years and haven’t seen such a simple and effective way of how to add a v neck to jersey fabric. As a full busted woman, I do find that the slightly wider neckline, and rounded v shape is so much more flattering for me. (A tight short v shape is not flattering on heavy busts and a round neckline is the same). This is so helpful, and I’m off to make a start. Thank you so much for your precise and gentle teaching method - it unlocks the creativity of so many of us, and you give us wings to try new techniques all the time. Most precious lady ❤

I have been having trouble with my neck bands lately. So, I revisited this video and walked through your steps (yes, even the hand basting) while completing my latest shirt. I usually convert crew necks to a V-neck. I think I just got sloppy with my measuring. Because this shirt came out perfect. I am a fan of topstitching. That is the only thing I did different. Your work from 2 years ago really helped me today. Thanks for the help.

@ThoughtfulCreativity 2 года назад

Cindy, so happy that you're diving into sewing! If I may suggest - it might be a bit easier to start with standard round necklines, and then do a v-neck as your next project :)

@kookykreek 2 года назад

@@ThoughtfulCreativity Okay, I’ll take that advice. I’ve been drafting my pattern and screwing it up more than once. Starting a new one tonight or tomorrow. I’ll go scoop neck. I think you have a video, I’ll go find it. Thanks!

@jojosewist8921 2 года назад

Another great tutorial. This is really adding a neckband. So many tutorials are actually doing a bound neckline, but calling it a neckband. Thank you for explaining and demonstrating how to draft the band at the V. You are so very talented, and patient with "dummies" like me. Would you show us how to add the piece of binding approx 3/8-1/2 wide & 5" long that covers the stitching and seamline, but only in the back neck area ? I have some tops that have this and it makes the back neckline softer. And it looks so nice and finished. Do you just measure and stitch the piece on both sides? It looks more complicated than that.

@trilece2295 11 месяцев назад

Please, could you make a video of how to sew a tunic, hip length, bell shaped, with added cut material in the neckline, buttons and collar...like the Indian cotton blouse pattern? A demanding project, but I believe she would explain it to you perfectly. Thank you very much.💜

@ThoughtfulCreativity 11 месяцев назад

Hello there, I already have those tutorials on the channel, all you have to do is put them together - the sleeve, the body and the neckline. Just look through my videos and you will find what you are looking for.

@trilece2295 11 месяцев назад

@@ThoughtfulCreativity Thank you very much for your quick reply. You are wonderful, indeed. I've been watching your videos for days, and you explain really well, but I still haven't come across a tutorial on this type of blouse. There are a lot of tutorials by other RU-vid creators, but you especially respond to me, step by step, clearly and concretely...so, I have yet to review...it's a pity, I didn't meet you before....all the best!

@genxsewista1066 2 года назад

@ThoughtfulCreativity 2 года назад

Absolutely!

@amyharry3071 2 года назад

Hi! I made my first r shirt yesterday after watching your video on how to draft a pattern from an existing shirt. I want to make a trial run of the next garment, which will be done in a cotton jersey as well. How do I effectively use muslin, per your recommendation, to check proper fit for a garment to be made with stretch jersey?

@ThoughtfulCreativity 2 года назад

if you make a stretch garment you have to use stretch fabric to test as well.

@ginasharpe6577 2 месяца назад

If I am making the neckband from the same 2 way stretch fabric as the t-shirt, do I cut the neckband on the bias or by the length it stretches the most?

@fionaengel7143 2 года назад

Could you please also make a video for a boat collar top and also mention the prices for your Farmer's Market project?Thanks

@amyharry3071 2 года назад

Another wonderful video! Bravo. I live in a small town without a fabric store close by. Can you share a few links to actual fabric you've purchased online? I want to use the ribbing you show and I'm on the hunt for a nice t shirt cotton jersey!

@ThoughtfulCreativity 2 года назад

Amy, hi! I actually have a full video about it with examples of what I bought online and what I made from it. You can just search for "where to buy fabric online thoughtful creativity".

@patriciaziegler8790 11 месяцев назад

Hi, do you have a video showing how to convert a crew tee shirt neckline to a v neckline? I like the way you sew yours in the front. Other videos show how to make a crossover but that's not what I want.

So, click on my channel name and go to VIDEO tab, there you will see all videos and will find what you are looking for. Thanks!

@SharWilsonGitxsanArtist 5 месяцев назад

did you serge the neckline before basting? I saw some stitching...I did not see that step in your video.

@staisi2012 2 года назад

hello miss alisa i have a question for you and i hope you answer me if i want to sew a t-shirt with a non stretchy fabric should i take the mesurments as they are or should i add some inches so it would be the right size from the pattern to acctual t-shirt and thank you

@ThoughtfulCreativity 2 года назад

Kaw, I invite you to see it for yourself and draw conclusions: 1) here's how you draft a block with STRETCH fabric - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-QN97H6MyZaA.html 2) here's how you draft a block with WOVEN (non-stretch) fabric - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-QAWF-mFXiTM.html See the differences and you will find the answer to your question!

@abbeycorbett8568 2 года назад

For your neck band you mentioned gray ribbing.do you order this? I can't find it at my local Jo Anns?

Hi Alisa I enjoyed watching this video. Thank you. Would know if you could help me. I always put 2 rows panty elastic in my grandchildren trousers How would I measure if I want to put a broader elastic in.. Help. Help

@ThoughtfulCreativity 2 года назад

Ethel, hi there! You would need to make the casing for the elastic twice the width of the elastic +1/4" (so that you can slide elastic in) and add seam allowance.

@KSMP Год назад

Could you shorten the neckband and cut the correct angle in the same step? Like just pin the ends at the correct angle to measure the length and then shorten and angle the ends once you are happy with it? Just wondering if there is a specific reason to do it the other way.

@KSMP 11 месяцев назад
