How To Make And Add A Hood To A Jacket. Rocked Up Frocks by Rockstars and Royalty - Episode 10

In my Rocked Up Frocks series, I show you how I transform pre-loved and vintage clothing pieces. In this episode, I remove the collar from a denim jacket and replace it with a sequin hood for Kimi from What Would Blair Do? I also show you how to make the hood pattern.

Love love love this gorgeous tutorial! I love remaking old/eBay clothes over! Thanks I always wanted to know how to under stitch

[@allthingsLachelle]

Best hood tutorial hands down. Thank you.

[@animeartist888]

This is immensely helpful as an amatuer seamstress looking to just alter existing clothes for a costume rather than having to find the -perfect- jacket or get it custom made for ten times the price. Thank you ever so much for the instructions!

[@RockstarsandRoyalty]

Glad it was helpful!

[@ceem5915]

This was so helpful! I love this. I’m trying to make myself this cape pattern and bemoaned the lack of hood. Now I’ve got great instructions for making it how I want it to be.

[@lulimau8478]

Hi TY! New subbie just what I needed!

[@Marianne_C_O_Art]

Glad I found this (not sure how I missed it before ) as I do need to add a hood to a couple of jackets 👍👍

[@darussianping61]

Great I need to do this on my Barbour jacket. I really miss having a hood.

[@liliththeangel7504]

Making custom cosplay BC it's to expensive online is hard so this kinda helps

[@ari3lz3pp3lin]

I love the silver sequins. Makes me think of girly chainmail! ^_^ My little girl's hood is like her armor so I can't wait to try this with the same material.

[@RockstarsandRoyalty]

I love that! ❤😍

[@305toindependence4]

[@FaerieGirl456]

You had me at sequins - lol ♡

[@mayahammod5584]

How wonderful plus a big thank you for your sincere explanation

[@RockstarsandRoyalty]

Thank you 🙂

[@byrone4763]

Thanks! The only useful thing I could do to help my wife sew a hood on her dress was find this video. :)

[@runplaykrazy4707]

Great job! Amazing!

[@triciat342]

[@znycelondon5313]

Really enjoyed your re-style of the jacket. Nice clean say off collar and easy on hood. 🌹 New subscriber.

[@flyingteacup8369]

Thank you for this video tutorial.

[@clyde862]

Good job 💕

[@betsysmith9176]

Super helpful. Thanks!

[@RockstarsandRoyalty]

You're welcome. Thanks for watching 💗

[@njtomboy]

Nice job.

[@RockstarsandRoyalty]

Thanks 🙂

[@diphyp]

I love this idea. Just need to find a basic hood pattern to customise now.

[@RockstarsandRoyalty]

Most of the pattern companies do hooded jacket or cape patterns. Check the costume sections too - I've found a variety of hood patterns on capes there in the past.

[@edmcd5040]

Very smart sewing skin irritating sequin to the inside instead of sewing/serging fabrics together as 1 exposed seam laying against the neck ...

[@moopy6446]

this is epic

[@MaruyaSAg]

Nice video though I prefer a hood with the jacket collar still intact.

[@RockstarsandRoyalty]

You can make it that way if you prefer. The idea of all my tutorials is that you can adapt them to suit your own style 🙂

[@BrandoNatic06B]

i have the same sewing machine! singer 99k!

[@shantidanceyoga]

Can you also leave the collar on the jacket ?

[@quatschk0pfr.w.676]

Gonna sew that to my lab coat

[@quatschk0pfr.w.676]

But less shiney

[@anegbeodedavid4241]

Nice but do all hood have the same size

[@RockstarsandRoyalty]

No, you can make the hood larger or smaller to suit what you're making.

[@anthonysermons7187]

Can you still add a hood and keep the collar

[@RockstarsandRoyalty]

I've been thinking about this and the best way I can think of to do it is to make the hood and finish all the edges, then machine or hand stitch it to the jacket along the seam where the collar meets the jacket.

[@nadeemuk6194]

Next time you no need to remove collar you can attach your hoodie with ring prongs buttons or sewing on collar bean

[@mr.miyagi3784]

I hear that you have to cut the sequins away from the seems (or break needles). How did you get around that? Also, what type of material did you use for the lining? What type of needle? Thanks in advanced. Sorry I'm a couple years late. New to this.

[@RockstarsandRoyalty]

I've never had a problem sewing these micro sequins (I think they're 3mm) without removing them from the seams. I use a standard needle in a size 80 / 12 and just sew a little slower than I would normally. When I use sequin fabric with larger sequins I tend to remove them. You can also press the seams open easily with micro sequins - just use a pressing cloth over the sequins or they'll melt and stick to the iron. I use silk organza for this so I can still see what I'm pressing. I used a polyester satin for the lining of this hood. Hope that helps. Happy sewing 💓

[@mr.miyagi3784]

@@RockstarsandRoyalty THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH!!!

[@beccajane1997]

Did u cut on the fold

[@RockstarsandRoyalty]

The fabric is folded with the right sides together, but the hood is cut as 2 separate pieces that are stitched together (2 pieces each for the outside fabric and lining fabric).

[@oliverj6803]

Aye

[@Huidos001]

Looks like a sparkly condom 👌👍 good job

[@anne_frankyt9346]

The only comment she didn't heart lol

[@rolandperez7687]
