How to Sew a Cuban Collar Vacation Shirt 

Has anyone ever told you you're like a bob ross of sewing

Like I’ve been saying, I should have just saved all the cash I used to attend my fashion college where they didn’t even teach me this and just finish my studies here on RU-vid like I started doing! This video right here I all I needed this morning. Thank you so much for sharing. You’re now my favorite RU-vidr 🙃

Good job! You're a handsome teacher and model. AWESOME❤

Was able to make my first Cuban shirt after watching your video. Very educative, greetings from Ghana 🇬🇭

I'm impressed of how you keep elevating the quality of your videos and the garments you make. Had to re-watch this because later today I'll be sewing a Hawaiian shirt and it will be the first time I attempt to make a camp collar, I mean, a vacation collar. ;)

The quality is impressive :O awesome work !! :)

I have been trying to figure out how to sew a Hawaiian/Vacation shirt for my boyfriend for 6 months, and you made it so easy! I'm going to steal one of his better fitting shirts to get the measurements, then make the pattern. THANK YOU!!

I wish I had watched this video before making my husband a Cuban collared shirt (we call it a Hawaiian style). Never having made men's wear before, I was lost. I "made" it work but the collar is bulky. THANKFULLY I have seen this video and now can make better versions of the shirt for him. I thank you. My husband will no doubt thank you in the future when is wearing the shirts I make him.

Awesome! Glad I finally found a term for what I was looking for specific collar.

Hi, Cornelius. 👋🏽 Really liked the simple way you teach, and the fact that you make sewing playlists is so 😎🙆🏻‍♀️ cool. Thanks for sharing. 🇧🇷

corn bread vanilla slice - you are hands down my favourite tailor on the interwebs. I'm your biggest fan i love your sewing thanks.

Very nice! Cubans call these shirts guayaberas (gwa-YA-verahs). I have my own design with tucks down the front on both sides, book matching. But without the back facing.

Nice job! You are becoming the pattern making master!

Corenelius!!! Wonderful shirt! It is tough to see it come together (right side/wrong side) when both sides are so similarly white. But you know what you are doing. I find myself smiling the while time in your videos - thanks for making them so enjoyable. You are a very cool guy!

I just found your channel and became a new subscriber. I'm looking forward to seeing all of the videos you have coming for the new year. Plus, I'm going to be watching your back catalog of videos. So glad to see another man who enjoys sewing. I hope you'll do more detailed video's for sewing beginners. I'm trying to live a more frugal, simple and sustainable lifestyle. Keep up the good work.

Collar blind hem was nice. Your top stitching is primo! Happy New Year. Good inspiration.

I'm watching a typical British vintage tutorial 🤩💯

Just come bk from my grey morning walk here in Manchester UK and....... There's Corn!!!! Great!! Got my cuppa, feet up,, lovely. Thankyou.

Love your style sense. So pared down to important parts. Good design endures Your armscye on your band collar shirt needs deepening in armscye (draglines point to the problem . Love your humor and all your efforts .you are on the right track.

That was one well put together shirt and video! This looked like an approachable shirt project too, I'm sure more went into it, but that's a handsome shirt.

This looks great! Will definitely use this tutorial for my next shirt, thank you!!!

Thank you for the tutorial, I am making a similar shirt using a free mood pattern and I wanted to add a back neck facing but I wasn't sure how to do it with a connected front facing.

Exactly what I was looking for. My pyjama jacket has the same collar finish. Thank you!

Glad to see you back. Nice job on your shirt. I would not have thought to tack down the facing piece with a blind hem. Watch out for those G2 pens. One leak and your shirt is done thus the reason for pocket protectors. 😂

Lovely tutorial

Wassup...watching from Philippines 🇵🇭 and your videos was helpful ....

This is just great! So glad I found you! Thanks!

Phenomenal job on your Cuban Collar Shirt. I love the understanding that you have of your body dimensions which makes this particular shirt fit you perfectly. Really well done!!!!

Thank you for this! For some reason I could not wrap my head around how to finish this type of collar.

Thank you. I'm making this on the morning.

جعلتها تبدون عمليه بسيطه جدا. You made it seams Very easy. Good job

This was brilliant, I tried it and it worked perfectly! Thanks

I absolutely loved this tutorial, ill try this my self 💛

Splendid , have been having a hard time on how to make that neck , I called it beach neck

wow, I love the style! I just wish I could keep up with what you're doing 😅

Great fit and classic style!

I love this shirt. You do such nice work. My son is going to be getting a few linen shirts like this.Melinda

So amazing. well done Cornelius

this is so impressive!!!! amazing work

Omg you have a great content... Keep it up buddy... Thanks for the vids, im new in here hehe

Great Work Bro, thanks. I like your T-shirts too

This was really inspiring! I am just starting out on my clothes making journey and I want to start replicating men's vintage clothing using patterns from the 50s and 60s. The idea at first seemed kind of daunting but watching these videos makes it seem really easy.

No option to Dubble thumbs up sir ur really cool and thank ×1000 u so much sir

Amazing job Corn 👍👍😚

THANK YOU

You look like the twin brother of my barber with that shirt on😅 great vid

That’s a beautiful shirt.

You have no idea how thankful I am to have a guide for this pattern, if it weren't for you I would be stuck making something more akin to if asked a giraffe to draw what he thinks a human collar looks like, it would be very unfortunate

Great song

Thank you so much. I really liked the way you did.

This looks great, maybe an 40s like loop collar would even look better with its spear point collar

Struggling to put a shirt together 😂my Course tutor just didn’t give me a yoke pattern so I’m watching different videos how to just sew the shirt without a yoke. Hopefully I figure it out. You’re too good I’m just a newbie in sewing a shirt but I want to learn from my mistakes 🤦🏾‍♀️😄

Hi, could you please make a video of how to draft shirt pattern. That would be really useful

I now feel uncontrollable urges to smoke quality cigars and sip Havana Club Gran Reserva. Cornelius.. What have you done! Now I have to own one of these shirts, where can I buy one?

The best!

You did great.well done.

This looks so good! Great job!

This is amazing! You are adorable thank you for this video!!:)

Thank you so much for this video! I have a Vogue vintage dress pattern with a flat button up collar (without a stand) which I want to convert to “vacation style” - on the original the collar is just too big and from the pictures of other sewists who have made it, it doesn’t lie flat if left open. I wasn’t sure how to deal with this but I’m going to make a toile using your technique and your collar and placket measurement!,

Great work! Was wondering if you have a tutorial on how to make that slit detail on the side seam?

You are amazing 👏

A máquina de costura é da série cabeçote cast iron (246, 244, 3930, 974, 875 etc.), o cabeçote é feito em ferro maciço do Brasil, das Minas Gerais. Creio que vi um vídeo onde fora dito que a máquina vista em 12:04 foi fabricada aqui no Brasil - estas máquinas de costura são ótimas! Eu tenho uma 3930, duas 974, uma 244 e uma 15c - todas fabricadas no Brasil pela falida Singer - são ótimas máquinas de costurar, fazem bordados diferentes e você ainda pode "fabricar" cames diferentes em resina ou plástico - não as troco por nenhuma destas máquinas de costura modernas. Tenho também uma 831G feita na Alemanha em 1960, também pela Singer. Tenho duas Elgin Ultramatic do Brasil e uma Bernina suíça. Máquinas antigas têm pontos mais bonitos, mais estáveis e têm ritmo. Minhas industriais são Yamato e Juki, mas adoraria ter uma PFAFF 138 e uma de duas agulhas paralelas. Seus vídeos com o som das máquinas ao fundo são melhores de assistir do que aqueles com músicas de fundo. Saudações do Brasil!

شكرآ للترجمة بلغة العربية ❤❤ استفدت كثيرآ

I'm loving the finess of the collar facing man... I've done like two of this tho I need I need to have one collar heavier coz it doesn't fold nicely when I wear it... Is a facing advisable?

Hi! I’ve recently started to learn how to sew and you’re videos have been awesome! Could I use the shirt pattern I created from your shirt pattern video from a month ago to create this shirt?

Good job 🙂

Looks good!

I cant see how you make the pattern since its yellow. This video is so thorough step by step.

Gold ! 🔥

How I can get this pattern ?

Love it...

Where did u find the pattern for this shirt?

What type of fabric do you use?

Hello cornelius, I noticed that one of your arms appears larger than the other. May I ask if there is a reason for this difference in size?

Perfect!

helloo..Are these shirt drafting patterns for men only or can we use the same for womens shirts also ?

How many yards would I need for it?

What pattern did you use?
