I've never seen a channel that is this well explained and friendly to beginners, I'll definitely buy some fabric and sew this for myself, thank youuuuuu

[@reeseoroni]

I just want to mention that UNDERSTITCHING is very important to help the outside lie correctly. GREAT JOB ON THIS WAISTCOAT!

[@JessDangDIY]

Thanks a lot!

[@dory99boat]

You’re remarkably good at precise instructions from layout to sewing. I’m subscribed now. Thank you.

[@JessDangDIY]

Thank you for loving it!

[@mamabear7243]

Best sewing tutorial for a vest that I’ve seen. The only think I would do different is somehow make the last open seam for turning at the side interior seam.

[@JessDangDIY]

Yeah, that’s what I would do for the next time too. Didn’t realized it until I watched it again 😋

[@nithindreemendis875]

I just finished sewing a tier skirt from your tutorial (it was for the Barbie movie and it turned out lovely!) and wanted to sew a vest for a separate outfit and stumbled upon this video! I love your videos, they're so simple and fun to watch too :) Thank you for making them!

[@JessDangDIY]

I'm so happy you find them helpful

[@altheamartin3990]

Jess I don't know how, but it's like you've turned into my hero. I literally type 'diy vest' and boom your video pops up. 'diy sundress' your video pops up again! I'm so blessed. Thank you so much. I made so many things watching your videos. They all turned out so well. :* Love from India.

[@JessDangDIY]

Glad I could help! Hope you will find more inspirations in the future.

[@InaTrendyTown]

Very beautiful. I have never done one but your video looks very easy to follow. Thanks Jess for your dedication

[@JessDangDIY]

Thank you for loving it too! It was my first timing trying to make it. And it's totally worthy if you're into minimal and chic style

[@shwetamishra9277]

I want to make waist coat from several years ago. I saw many tutorials and I gave up my efforts. But you Jess, explain everything. It looks like, I can also try a bit. Thanks for sharing tutorials

[@brendasmith8394]

You're too good. I love it. I'm going to try this. I've already invested $22 in the fabric. Great video. Thanks

[@JessDangDIY]

Thanks for loving it! For this one, it's better to test it out with cheap fabric first before using your expensive one. Because it's quite fitted and you might need to adjust some parts too.

[@ethevelucie1964]

Hi Jess, I love your video. Can I check how do I measure my inside shoulder size? Thank you

[@JessDangDIY]

It's the width between 2 arms. You can measure it from the gap between the arm and the chest to the other side.

[@manuelarossi8703]

thank you jess, i was also wondering about this :) @@JessDangDIY

Can you tell me what neck contour you have and did you use? What length of garment did you base it on? kisses from Argentina

Omggg yessss!! I was looking for something like this 🤩🤩

[@JessDangDIY]

Glad you like it

[@tinaflz1201]

Hi thx for this beautiful tutorial, ❤❤I Have A Question;can I use OTHER FABRICS for the lining?if yes what is your suggestion?for example rayon or viscose?

[@abbiefarmer7548]

hey jess this is amazing! how would i make the welt pocket a real pocket by adding a pocket bag? xx

[@JessDangDIY]

To make it real, you can add the lining at the top of the pocket (the inside part)

[@hinzatanveer001]

Hi! I have few questions: 1. Do we have to add extra 1cm while cutting the pattern on cloth? Or did you already add sewing allowance to the pattern? 2. While making the back side pattern you said the total length to be 44 cm but actually took 50 cm on scale. Please make it clear. Happy stitching 🧵 Thank you!

[@claudiamirandola1305]

I was wondering the same thing! My pattern came out very different, and I can't wrap my head around it. Have you tried making it?

[@hinzatanveer001]

@@claudiamirandola1305 Yes, I tried it. BTW I added 1 cm extra while cutting the pattern on cloth. It turned out fine. Regards!

[@JessDangDIY]

1- I already add seam allowance at the end of the pattern drafting before cutting. 2- It's 50cm. It's the length of the waistcoat. So you can adjust to have your own length.

[@janmiq9412]

You heard my wishes for a waistcoast pattern tutorial!!!

[@JessDangDIY]

Hope you will make it soon

[@liliannwaeri7454]

Wow I sooo much love you teaching, but am having difficulties with the centimeters measurement, please can you try with inches 🙏

[@JessDangDIY]

I will try!

[@alexbadgal5589]

Hi Jess what is neck size? how is 1/2 neck size only 7 cm for you? my neck is 38 cm.. thanks

[@JessDangDIY]

The way I measure my neck size is measuring the width between 2 sides of the neck, not around the neck.

[@sfqueergirl]

I am not clear on the pockets. You made the tops of them and the cuts for them but does the stuff just float around inside the vest's "guts"? there is no defined pocket area.

[@JessDangDIY]

Because this is the fake pocket. So I didn't make the inside area for the pocket

[@Angelaajil]

Thank you for the tutorial

[@aprilkeyes2420]

Great video as always. But something is missing from this one. Something wasn't said clearly or shown. I got to the end with right sides showing and 2 openings at the bottom (as shown) and 2 side openings (as shown). This is a dead end. Now there is no way to close the sides or the openings at the bottom. If you go inside out and close these openings, now there is no way to turn the garment right out again.

[@nsikanakpabio4835]

Thank you Jess!. please did you also make the pants you wore with the waist coast? Please could you share how you made it?. Thank you for amazing content

[@JessDangDIY]

Yes, I made my pants too. You can check out the tutorial for it on my channel. It's called High waisted wide leg pants

Hey I want to ask if you cut the fabric according to the 1 cm difference/ seam or not the 1cm difference/ seam ?

[@SheenaOrioque]

is the 1 cm allowance already included on 😊the provided measurements?

No add them after u make the pattern
