HOW TO finish necklines? 4 SIMPLE techniques that I use for neatly sewing necklines AND armholes.

[@ThoughtfulCreativity]

I know this video is long, but.... I could not fit all of the information into a 10 minute video, so it is what it is, I wanted to make sure you see some examples and reasonings behind why I do certain things.

[@lucialiguori2219]

No problem for the length! We are in a world were everything 'must' go fast! You give me/us the time to learn! I enjoyed every seconds of your explanationt! Thank you!

Hi, I’m a 59 year old beginner sewer who fell upon your videos by chance when browsing and I’m so happy that I did. (I hated sewing when I was younger, because of a sewing teacher I had at school!) I absolutely love your detailed instructions and the video shots are so clear and easy to understand. I’ve been sewing for almost a year now - simple things for the home and some easy bags (generally, square/rectangle based stuff) and I’ve not had the courage to feel I was capable yet of moving on to clothes. However, your enthusiasm and explanations have made me change my mind and I can’t wait to get started on some simple tops and T-shirts. Thank you so much. 😊

[@conniefullerton1706]

Thank you so much! Your tutorial made it easy for me to understand how to make the all-in-one neckline and arm hole facing. I never learned how until you showed us. Your lessons are great!

i love all your videos and i know that you are the one who will one day get garments on my hangers. you are so easy to watch and YES i understand what you are saying and i know when i am ready i can follow your videos and be proud to say "i made this" Thank you. x

[@bbrown8353]

You can teach an old dog new tricks! I haven't done much garment sewing in years but I am getting back into it, I had never seen the Burrito method you showed and it's great. The last time I made a little girls dress I did a similar facing and remember that I had to review the directions several times because my brain couldn't "see" how It would finish. This method with the video simplified it and made the facing lay so nicely. Thank You

[@cartoonman202]

Another brilliant tutorial, Alisa. Love your work. Your explanations are always so clear and concise. I have been sewing since I was 10 years old. I am now 68 and I am STILL learning new tricks and tips! Many thanks from this old girl! xx

[@tracys.5143]

Wonderful video, thanks for putting all these finishing techniques in one accessible place. Keep well, dear Alisa!

[@marthabucher7695]

You are my go-to for any sewing questions! Thanks so much for your tutorials and your channel, Alisa. Always very well explained.

[@tarshiherndon1930]

Over the past twelve hours I have viewed several of your tutorials starting from scrappy t shirts up to this one by clicking on the links. I am a visual learner and love how you explained, modeled, and demonstrated the process on each of your videos. I especially like this one and it wasn't a long video to show how to finish the different necklines. Thank you so much. Now, I am off to view the different hem finishes video.

[@ThoughtfulCreativity]

Glad you found it helpful and welcome to the channel :) I try as much as I can to show in details, when we talk about very specific techniques, I find that it makes it easier to understand what's going on :)

[@cindysalas7853]

Alisa, thank you for this video, it's so full of useful information, great job!

[@lisacapri4837]

Another amazing video. Thanks so much! I’ll be coming back to this video again and again each time I am faced with garment finishings. 😊

[@LostMyThread]

What an excellent and thorough video, Alisa! Very well explained. I tend to go with whatever my pattern recommends, though I have used all of these techniques. This really makes me consider changing it up and focusing on what best suits my fabric/finished look. Thank you so much!

[@yooperlooper]

I'm trying to teach myself to sew in my retirement and sewing necklines & armholes has so far resulted in ruining 3 tops and several more screaming banshee outbursts. I've looked at many many videos wondering 'why can't I just sew the necklines and armholes rolling them in and sewing them before I sew the sides and shoulders. this is the first video that shows me exactly how to do that!!! Now I'm ready to try again. If only I can sew a straight line I may have a chance. I'll try on some old lighter fabric first. God help me if I can't produce a simple tank top!. 😂THANK-YOU! [P.S. I Love the facing idea too! - maybe that's a better option for someone with little patience and technique -oh wait! that looks way too confusing ]

[@Lifewithassunta]

Great video. Thank you for taking the time to show all these methods!
