Incredible. To have the ability to just... make it, and so precisely, its truly incredible.

Thanks Jay!

[@marynadler9152]

Thanks. Nice tutorial 🙂

[@lyonza]

I made mine off Billy's videos and I love it.

[@ammmm_4803]

So the two 'body' fabrics are sewn side by side with a french seam? Does that mean the total width of that fabric would be the 'Yuki' + Seam Allowance?

[@jpvsomar021781]

Do you have a tutorial video of you making the haori you're wearing here? Thanks.

[@adamakaru2683]

WOW Jay, how nice I didn`t knew you make Yukata Kimono what else you make? have you got more presentations on KZbin? thank you.

[@jaysworkshop2497]

I hope to be able to make anything, to always be learning more skills. I'm working on more videos right now!

先生、教えてくれてありがとう。

[@shahtsuki8464]

Hi sir.. Can you suggest any taylor that can make yukata like this? I bought the cotton at nepori town.. But i can't find taylor for yukata. 😭😭

[@ammmm_4803]

I'm still confused about the placement of the Okumi. Do we start from this line here @ 13:55?

[@kholinthegoblin2538]

I struggle to understand why the width of the body panel is 1/2 yuki when you only seem to need 1/4 hip

[@denisestover2416]

Hi Jay😊 Good video. Do you sew silk? Are you located close to Texas? Thanks for sharing your knowledge and skills! The finished garment looks great! The dance looked good, too. God Bless!

[@teaganreynolds9394]

Do you have a breakdown of the pattern? I was trying to follow along but it does seem a bit daunting

[@jaysworkshop2497]

I'm working on remaking this tutorial, I'll have a better explanation of the pattern.

[@RainMakeR_Workshop]

Any plans to make a Haori and Hakama how to make vid?

[@jaysworkshop2497]

Yes, I have made those in the past and am considering making a tutorial on those as well as remaking this tutorial for a clearer explanation (eg. computer slides for the diagrams as opposed to turning pages)

[@RainMakeR_Workshop]

@@jaysworkshop2497 All sounds good to me. Hope it will be somewhat soon.

[@opopinion9830]

it's pretty difficult to tell exactly what you are doing. it would help if visually you showed where on the final product you are sewing or held up the piece. Every time you show yourself sewing or ironing, it looks exactly the same and is difficult to follow along with or tell exactly what you are doing. the drawings are helpful for cutting, and understanding what you are doing to each individual piece, but not where it applies as a whole.

[@Aesos3429]

No offense at all, but this may not really be the right project for you if that’s the case

[@rubberysquid]

HUHHHHHHHH

[@user-bj7pn1qe4p]

USE THE TAYLOR METER NOT THE CONSTRUCTION METER!

[@user-bj7pn1qe4p]

RESPECT THE LEYER,S 12 ARE IN TOTAL NOT UST A METERIAL LIKE YUKATA,,

[@user-bj7pn1qe4p]

YOU LIE IT,S NOT AUTENTIC!

How to measure uchiage ?

[@jaysworkshop2497]

The amount of fabric taken in with the uchiage is the needed length minus the actual length. If you cut your fabric exactly the length that you need, then you won't need to tuck any fabric into the uchiage.
