I've been sewing for over 30years and I love the way the new generation isn't afraid to "break the rules" in sewing. I will definitely be trying this out. Thanks for posting.

@hilaryjordan7761 9 лет назад

I bought a bunch of t-shirts from a resale shop but they are all crew neck. Crew neck shirts make me feel like I am choking. I was so happy I found your wonderful video. I will be fixing my shirts this afternoon! Thanks!!!!

@Dawnie-bi6qu 6 лет назад

Crew necks make me choke too

@dakshatashinde2343 6 лет назад

thanks

@surgupta91 5 лет назад

Same pinch!

@kingofcourtjesters 3 года назад

youre probably getting them too small

@mamaswagg100 2 года назад

I hate that feeling as well lol

@aeonfluxcapacitor77 5 лет назад

So even though this is 8 years old, you won the awesome sauce award for today! I can't wait to fix all the shirts I love but refuses to wear because they are crew.

@christinekirsch3297 9 лет назад

Great tutorial! Just wish it wasn't on a black shirt, got a little confused at the end.

@barbaraness4507 2 года назад

As long as I’ve been sewing, and making my own patterns I should’ve thought of this on my own. Lol Sometimes I think RU-vid is making my brain lazy. I do appreciate you sharing this method! Thanks!

@TheGodlymom 4 года назад

Wendy, I appreciate you. Ever since I found this video and fixed my hubby’s shirts, he’s no longer uncomfortable buying shirts that he likes. He no longer has to hack them up so that they can’t be worn in public. I have fixed many shirts now and it really is easy. Thanks a million. God bless you. The Godly Mom

@pattypierson3969 4 года назад

Love this video but I’m struggling with sewing the “V”. Can you do this with contrasting thread? The black on black is too hard to see. Thank you!

@npaola06 3 года назад

I agree. Or a t-shirt in a light colour

@wendiwendi7134 8 лет назад

Thank you so much! I really struggle with the bottom of the "V", I can do it and it look fabulous! If you ever re-do the video maybe you could use contrasting colors, I struggle seeing the exact steps but, Whoohoo! Success! Thank you truly!

@marilynirizarry6158 Год назад

This is an Excellent tutorial. Thank you.

@withwendy 12 лет назад

Hand sew is possible, just takes longer that's all =)

@judiko142 3 года назад

Would it be possible to demonstrate this? Much appreciated

@AnnieAtRecess 8 лет назад

I just did a test run on one of my husband's old crew neck tees which he only wears around the house, and I'm really pleased with the result. Although I typically buy a deeper vee in RTW, this will be perfectly modest for a group tee I'm wearing for a church event.

@wendyhannan2454 Год назад

Great idea, I’ll practice on one of my tee shirt that no longer fits. I did struggle with the black shirt Wendy was working on, a lighter colour may of helped. However I now know how to do a v neck, thanks to Wendy. I find a V neck more comfortable to wear.

@angeles2470 8 лет назад

This was so helpful. Finally a tutorial that can reuse the collar.

@Benni1214 8 лет назад

Finally I find a video that shows how you can do this in the right way! I've got loads of tshirts that are basically slick tight to my neck. It looks really bad in my eyes and I don't know why so many designers make them like this but now at least I might be able to change them (with my mom's help xd). It's mostly band shirts so that's why I'm buying them even if the neck is tight and I could've gone for something else...

@rogerwillan1606 2 года назад

I've thought the same thing so many times...how do these people become designers when they can't even get the simple stuff , like a neck line right!It's mind boggling.

@CuspLibra82 8 месяцев назад

Thank you so much!!!!😍🤩💓💖💓💖 I love the result and you make the directions easy to follow.

@bobjolly7795 3 года назад

You did a great job with the instructions. I have so many T-shirt’s that I would wear if they were v-neck so thank you so much for showing us.

@kkakacek 7 лет назад

Good clear instructions, Wendy. Thanks!

@tunisharenee 4 года назад

Shirt came out perfectly! Thank you!

@rootssister01 2 года назад

I love this idea 💡

@snip-sniptear956 7 лет назад

I just finished re-modeling my crew neck long-sleeve shirt to appear as a v-neck. I have to say, your tutorial made me find other ways to overlap the ends of the collar. I liked it!! came out great for a first-time!

@jheuser1969 11 лет назад

Wendy thanks for the video, this will help get all my crew neck shirts out of the drawer!

@MalikDees 11 лет назад

Nice Job. This video was super easy to understand and made lots of sense. I may do this for a modeling photo shoot later. Thanks!

@jilldolan5275 7 лет назад

Clear and concise. Thank you.

@nancykim4302 7 лет назад

Thank you! Your instruction can not be any clear than one anticipated.

@LottieSue 9 лет назад

Brilliant! I've been searching through youtube videos for ages to find someone teaching how to do a finished altered neckline on tee's - thank you for much for posting!

@jamievalentine6181 9 лет назад

Awesome job, I hate the rounded necks and have a closet of t-shirts I buy to support various school functions and never wear...new project :-)

@erict7093 8 лет назад

This is GENUS!!! this is stuff you don't learn in fashion school haha. I love this. its soo easy! this takes the fear out of working with knits. thanks! love this.!

@RandomDude-bo1lg 2 года назад

Thank you beautiful. Helped a lot. Now I just need to learn how to sew

@beatrizzacatzi3621 4 года назад

Thank you !!!! Awesome short tutorial video.

@withwendy 12 лет назад

Yeah! Usually I go to a fabric store that carries knits and ask if they have the kind that is already into tubes, it's similar to the ribbed fabric used for tank tops and waistbands.

@ramnicki 6 лет назад

10,000 thank yous!! I not only am fixing all my concert tees, but I lowered a neckline for my 95 year old mom, and we're both thrilled with the results! Keep posting your videos, please!

@jrw412 2 года назад

Why did you cover the last frame of the finished neckline with an ad for your other videos? I wanted to see the finished project! Gheeze!!

@sekaihatsu 4 года назад

An oldie but a goody! You haven't changed in making clear and fun videos that are easy to follow. I'm glad I found this to transform one of my shirts.

@ammanasuh4946 6 лет назад

Wonderful idea. Thanks for sharing with us.

@azulchromis4569 9 лет назад

Thank you for posting this video. Yours certainly looks like it's the most professional conversion out there. As I sit here with my sewing machine trying to do this, I've noticed that you skip out on exactly how you pin the tip of the V. I really would have appreciated your showing how you pinned that part and explaining the pinning and the sewing of the V a bit more step-by-step, since this is the reason why your V-neck looks so great. Thanks!

@CallMeAlice818 6 лет назад

Almost a whole six years after the video is posted, but I wanted to say Thank You! All of the shirts we get at work are crew neck, so I'd spend pretty much the entire day tugging the collar down. I practiced on two t-shirts first before modifying my work shirts and it helps so much! One coworker asked if I had the emblem printed on a v-neck. Her reaction when I told her I did it myself was priceless! So, thanks ^_^

@bridgetjones8339 11 месяцев назад

I love v necks! Thank you

@Kwantifye 9 лет назад

Excellent tutorial! I've given away so many shirts because of the rounded neck. I'm going to try this - can't wait!

@cindywomack676 7 лет назад

Thanks so much! I have searched all over for a tutorial that doesn't just leave a cheap looking raw edge. Happy to have found this

@iamxsockworthy 11 лет назад

hand stitching this was a lot easier than machine, but thanks for the really useful tutorial!

@suzum5689 4 года назад

I had never heard of this before. Pretty cool. I will have to give it a try. Thanks!

@Quci52 10 лет назад

You just made my life easier! I've been trying to figure out how to do this. You are a genius.

@annielove4443 5 лет назад

I've been sewing for over a hundred years, and I'm quite surprised with how easy that was!

@shiregirl2001 4 месяца назад

Thank you. I did this following your instructions, and it worked great!

@romeosincere117 8 лет назад

Pretty cool. This might work well on shirts with streched-out collars.

@leslindelgado6124 2 года назад

Aaww! Look how young you look. Now you’re a mom. Still an awesome tutorial a whole decade later. I’m rejuvenating a few of my old shirts now thanks to this video. ❤️

@VRRother 8 лет назад

Keeping my fingers crossed that I don't mess this up. Thanks for the video. The finished neckline is just what I'm aiming for.

@alainamilare 12 лет назад

Thanks a bunch! Here's hoping I can keep it straight. I'm a top-stitching newb.

@monteroprince7672 9 лет назад

Good video but no offense next time can you move the next episode sub title from the middle of the screen so we can see the V-neck part

@chowfam1 5 лет назад

Good point! However the vneck at the end is the same that she shows in the beginning of the video, so you can see the finished project really well there.

@joydockery2840 Год назад

I don't know how to get the v then I think I'm sewing it together wrong

@awkwardavocado349 7 лет назад

I have a round neck t-shirt which I got from my school for my dance and I've not used it since then finally stumbled upon ur video... now time to use that t-shirt...😁😁😁

@helenmary4869 9 лет назад

Definitely the best I have seen of how to change to a V neck.You are amazing.Thank you!

@ETPeterson1328 8 лет назад

best video ive seen on how to do this

@crematia2332 9 лет назад

Thank you so much for posting this! I've been looking for a way to make my shirts into a v-neck while keeping the "store bought" look. Looking forward to watching your other videos!

@ObscureJoel 11 лет назад

Thank you, you've assisted the rare species of men that can sow and I can't thank you enough

@Auzzymom27 2 года назад

This tutorial is awesome!!! I was able to turn my crew necks into v-necks so easily! Thank you!!!!!

@gimmiethat911 12 лет назад

wow, you are great at making tutorials

@jmbarris8780 6 лет назад

I see your post is quite old, but I had to tell you your video was just what I was looking for to turn a bunch of crew necks into V. Your video worked perfectly in explaining how to do this. I even found an additional trick to make the point even easier to accomplish. Thanks again!

@pamelaleitman9200 7 лет назад

Best one I have seen so far!

@Magpiebard 7 лет назад

Finding this is going to help me SO much in a few day. Give me straight sturdy broadcloth or even silky sari fabric and I'm happy as can be. Stretch Jersey and I get all flummoxed and out of sorts. This handle my need so perfectly as I work as making as much on my winter wardrobe as possible and I seemed to be haunted with crew neckline patterns. Which..... no. If my choice is crew or nothing, I'll just find my good bra or heavyweight bodice! Thanks so very much for making things so completely clear and simple to imitate.

@DuhItsMeLeo 12 лет назад

okay okay hand down bad a**, thanks Wendy! life saver right here, all the other v neck makers don't give as good as results as your vid! thanks!! :)

@stressedandunimpressed 2 года назад

I bought my mom a crew neck shirt for her birthday and am only just now remembering she hates crew necks. I'm going to give this a shot! Seems simple enough

@bevsnyman857 3 года назад

Great tutorial, I shared this to my sewing group a few weeks ago, and today got to try it out, Thank you , now I can buy tshirts to change and wear them out

@Bunnieb559 8 лет назад

I love this, it's exactly what I was looking for but I don't know how to use a sewing machine

@harryhui2214 7 лет назад

Dear Wendy, you did a GREAT jib, and this is the best tutorial. You inspired me and all I wanted was a tip about notching a round collar! :-D Amituofo

@maddinar6727 9 лет назад

Really great tutorial. I bought a t-shirt at a concert, but the one I wanted wasn't available anymore in S so I had to take M... Therfore I sew it tighter and made the round collar to a v.neck with the help of your video. I'm just beginning to saw, but this video made it easy for me to complete this project. Thanks! :*

@judirinaldi6094 10 лет назад

I HATE round neck t-shirts. What a great way to turn all of my t-shirts into v-necks.

@fortitude2557 7 лет назад

Best tutorial ever!

@heathercortes9567 5 лет назад

Thanks. I've been too lazy to do this before. You may want to do contrasting colors for the sewing noobs though. I know you're actually wearing these shirts though. As long as your inside stitches are small you shouldn't see them unless the ribbing flips out. I can use you as an example for my daughter. She's not thrilled to be getting sewing lessons this year. She's ten but I can tell she'll be six feet tall like me. They don't make a lot of clothes for us out there that actually fit. This is an easy beginner lesson for her.

@jackieo8693 4 года назад

@frognapsss 12 лет назад

If i remember correctly, i think you already made this tutorial with an american apparel shirt. But watching this was clearer than before, thanks! I'm gonna try this on a few of my shirts from threadless!

@bonnielunzmann502 8 лет назад

Thank you for this tutorial. I followed it and was able to make a crew neck that I didn't like into a v-neck that looks so much better on me. Nice job!

@hannaheartsfashion 11 лет назад

I am so confused but it was a good idea and it looks pretty professional! So good job(: lol

@jewlz1.1.1 6 лет назад

Loved this, Wendy! Excellent tutorial. Mine may not look AS professional, as yours, but I'll give it a shot just the same! Lol. Thank you so much!

@2010Catnap 2 года назад

Very helpful! THANK YOU

@AngelaSams 10 лет назад

Thanks Wendy! I just followed your tutorial to change a scoop neck tank into a v neck!

@cynforrest 7 лет назад

Worked just like a charm. Thanks for the detailed info. Also the close-up camera work was very helpful!!

@GroggyPantz 8 лет назад

If I wanted to do this with only needle and thread (hand sow), what kind of stitching would you recommend? I'm not that experienced with hand sowing but I don't have easy access to a sewing machine, so my only option is to hand sow.

@KiwiCakeful 4 года назад

Thank you!!! I bought a cute thrifted shirt that I loved so much, but the crew neck was weirdly tight... I tried following your tutorial and it looks so much better on me now! I love it! Thank you!

@JoDidntHearYou 10 лет назад

I just tried this technique, and it was quick and easy! Thank you, Wendy! Praise God for you! Please keep the tutorials coming :)

@Demi_Nio 8 лет назад

The best tutorial for v neck ever!!!

@misguidedvogue 12 лет назад

Seems very easy, will be giving this one a try. Thanks for the tutorial! I love your videos

@withwendy 12 лет назад

Definitely a straight stitch is the best option, no zigzag craziness haha

@dmlejeune7618 8 лет назад

what stitch do you use? Is it a stretch stitch? How do you keep the fabric from puckering when you sew the neck to the new edge?

@kimtown 6 лет назад

Dm Lejeune this is a much better tut: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5a_U-0elnH8.html
