Very nice to watch and learn more Thank you for putting so much time into this sewing presentation Really enjoyed I hope I can improve a little more from your valuable sharing

Man, you're one of my favourite KZbin channels. I've embarked on a similar project and your vid is just what I need to get a proper start. You've climbed the peak of the sartorial ladder my friend, you're forever timeless. Keep up, the amazing vids, production quality through the roof!

[@distressedtailor]

Thanks so much! I hope I can be at least a little help to people working on their own projects, hopefully this year I'll have the time to get more videos out.

I absolutely have had that thought of needing a yellow vest before, and dude your vest looks amazing!

[@distressedtailor]

Dozens of us have had that thought, dozens!

[@awesomeadmiration485]

Nice job👍🏼 I like your channel

[@ITBMW]

Great vid! I love your channel and have recently completed my first sewing class. Do you have any tips for getting into this kind of tailoring?

[@distressedtailor]

The best thing you can do is just practice! Altering your own clothes is a great place to start because you see how other people put clothes together (and you can copy patterns easily from disassembled garments). But the best thing is just practicing, also don't fear the rough draft. Muslin mockups are great and some projects have required multiple mockups.

I like the plaid in your original vest. Good for you for doing your own tailoring. We need more people learning this craft, even for making their own wardrobes. I suggest not using cheap waxed tailor's chalk. Use Jinbutsu brand instead. It's nice to see a fellow Canadian interested in sartorial clothes

[@distressedtailor]

Thanks for the reco on chalk! I've had a hard time finding chalk I like and the local shops I've been to haven't had much selection.

Joker waistcoat

Would you be able to make a pattern for this waistcoat ? I’ve been trying to find one with these specific characteristics at the collar and can’t find anything worthwhile

[@distressedtailor]

I'm not a professional by any means, and I'm not familiar with the process for digitizing and grading patterns but if you have a suit collar pattern and a waistcoat pattern with a lapel you can combine them, it would probably take some tinkering but secretly mine wasn't perfect either, the collar wasn't wide enough and it left a gap between the collar and lapel.

Please keep making more sewing videos 🙏 please.....
