Perfect Jacket

The perfect jacket makes you feel more confident, stylish & fabulous.
🍉 Hi, I'm Fin. Welcome. I'm on a quest to make the perfect jacket.
I mostly make simple dresses, if you're a beginner, they are quite manageable. Jackets do require a higher level of skill and do take much longer to make, but they're totally worth it!

Beading video 🪡 ua-cam.com/video/hK-Zbc0P5OM/v-deo.html I was hoping I'd be able to finish all the beading but there's too much. I did finish half of it, so you can see what the a beaded versus an un-beaded jacket would look like. I love the beaded, but of course I would! Happy sewing!

spectacular! and love your display idea...i wonder if you have a textile museum if you could do a showing with your research on chanel...have one here if you ever venture to canada😁
It would be nice to see you, or someone, wearing your outfits. The jacket is beautiful.
Thank you. 🌸🧥🥰
Beautiful. Would love to see it on you, all dressed up!
Thank you! 🥰🌸💕
My favorite of yours so far!!!! 😍
Aww, thank you! Yep, the way these pink and red sequin catch the light really is lovely. It turned out even prettier than I dreamed. Very happy with it! 🌸💕🥰💕🌸
Absolutely amazing! You are truly an artist! Thanks so very much for sharing your expertise! Love it!❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much! It is fun, making the jacket and then getting to bead it and finally wear it. So much fun!! 🥰🌸🎨🧥💕
do you label and date the jackets and dresses you've made? Also, you should definitely have your jackets shown in a museum, and I'd wager there would be a few looking to do just that. Great job. It looks like a Valentine's Day jacket to me.
Aww, thank you!! Yes, I now keep a list of when I finish each jacket, but I didn't always. I am happy with this one! 🥰🌸🎨💕🧥
It looks amazing❤😊😊
Thank you! 🥰🌸💕
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
thank you! 🥰🌸💕
Girl! Its giving, "The only 💝 valentine". Lovely!
Thank you!! 🌸🎨💕
Girl you are making my bead collection give me the side eye. 😒😂😂😂 I need to get back to beading. I love your work.
lol I totally know what you mean! Beading takes so much effort. You need to take some time off, but in the end, it's definitely worth it! 🥰🌸🎨
Did you do the beading yourself? Its fab!
Yes, I did the beading. It took forever!! 🌵🌸🥰
Amazing 😲👏🏽👏🏽💜💜💜
Thank you!! 💕🎨🌸
You made this?! Oml new sub
Yes! Thank you! Welcome. 🥰🌸💕
I truly wish I had the patience you have with the beading… I would be dropping them all over the place 🙃🙃Beautiful work 🥰🌻✨
Thank you! 😊 Yep, I do drop some beads but I use them all eventually. 🥰🌸🎨
Do you ever use fusible interfacing? How old were you when you started sewing? Would you like to work as a seamstress at Chanel? Love your jackets and all the historical hand sewing you do. I agree it’s just so nice. Ty!
Love your videos! You’re a wealt of knowledge. Who taught you how to sew? Have you always been creative. I would love to see you model these jackets. The beading is Incredible!❤
Thank you, Fin! ❤this combination of colors!
Thanks, Robyn. 🥰🦞👗 Glad you like it! 🦞👗
Thank you, Fin! Charming, charming! 🎉
Thank you! I'm working on the floral design on the back at the moment. This jacket is just so much fun to work on! 🎨🌸💕🥰🌸
Really beautiful! Did Channel bead a lot of their jackets or is it just your taste. Forgive me for asking but I just don’t know much about this art of beading. Love your videos. This is definitely a labor or love. TY!❤
Thank you! Yes, There are 2 types of Paris fashion, ready to wear and couture. The couture Chanel jackets have Lesage beading. It's considered the most beautiful, most expensive beading in the West.
@@PerfectJacket Wow! I’ll have to watch your beading video. Thx again!
I think you should invite the viewers to send photos of the layer cake dresses they have created and/or their "Perfect Jackets". ! Maybe you could have a contest or "Make a layer cake dress with a Christmas or New Years theme. For a prize you could offer something you have created or a hunk of fabric. I think you may have some extra fabric. Do you know some of your subscribers would like to see you in person. You are indeed remarkable as are the garments you create. Carol from Maine
Aww, thank you, Carol. That's a fabulous idea. I might do that for December. It would be so fun to see everyone's lovely creations. 🥰🌸🎨👗🦞
Your work is beautiful
Thank you so much! 🌸🥰🌸🧥💕
Another amazing beautiful jacket Were do you wear all these beautiful jackets Hope you don’t mind me asking
Thank you! I just wear them as everyday clothing, over jeans and a t-shirt. If I saved beautiful garments for the perfect day or a perfect event, then I'd never get a chance to wear them. 🥰🎨🌸🧥💕
I agree I’m the same Every day is a special day xx❤️❤️❤️❤️
It’s lovely, but yes a bit much to wear around the edges. Love the colors ✨🦋🌻
Thank you! 😊🎨🧥
How different it looks with the beads. I wasn’t sure about the big pink squares but my, it looks beautiful now!
Thank you! 😊 Now I just have to bead the other half! 🌸💕🎨🥰🧥
I love the dress's color combination. The dress gives me a high-fashion feel! It is really lovely, and the second one has the colors of my dreams!
Thank you! I'm really happy with the color combinations. They make me smile every time I look at the dresses! 🦞🍁👗🍂🦞
im totally mesmerized by this as well! i love the pink check but omgosh with the beads... gorgeous
Thank you so much! Yes, I do sort of wish I'd bought more of this tweed. It would look adorable as a suit or a fitted dress. It's so vintage. 🌸💕🥰💕🌸
So you’ve been busy stabbing sequins. All that work pays off as your jacket looks gorgeous! Love the pink and sparkly look and the red gives it a good pop of color. 😀🧥🦞💖📿
Thank you! Yes, it was a bit unnerving wrecking all the sequin but I do love the way it looks in the end. Worth the risk. 🎨🥰💕🧥🌸
Who wears all these beauties?
Thanks! Me, I make my own clothes.
Just wow 🩷🩷
Thank you! 🥰🌸🎨
It’s amazing 🩷🩷

Thank you! ✨🌸💕
So excited for this one💕💕
Thank you! Me too. 🥰🎨💕
Ahhh I love it💗💗💗💗
Thanks! I've had this tweed for years but didn't want to mess it up!
This is absolutely incredible!!! And how do you wash it?
Thanks! It's dry clean only.
It’s coming out great!!!!! What do you do with these jackets, just wear them and be fabulous everyday?🤔😍
Thanks! Yep, that's the plan! 🥰 I just wear them with a t-shirt and jeans. They give me so much joy.
That is so much work but it looks amazing.
Thank you so much! 💕🥰🎨
it is soo cute😊
Thank you! 🥰🌸💕
Love it 💓💓✨
Thank you! 🌸🧥💕
Love the lobster dress! I’ve had that happen with planning fabrics for my dress then rearranging and excluding some after working on it. I really like the fabrics you used. They flow together so nicely. Have fun twirling in it! 😀👗🎨🦞💙
Thank you! I'm still calling it the Lobster Dress! 🦞👗 I'm going to make a beaded jacket with that fabric but I have to finish beading the pink and white tweed jacket first! 🥰💕🧥🎨🌸
A beaded jacket with the lobster fabric sounds gorgeous! Great idea! 🦞🧥💖
I'm going to have soooo many jackets! 🥰🎨🧥🦞
💜💜💜
Thank you! 🌸🥰💕
The neon underlining is so nice. It’s fun to see how it changes the look of the tweed as well.
Thank you! 🥰 I like your user name! ✨🎨🌸🧥
Thanks ever so much! I am so curious what pattern you will choose for the coordinating handbag!
Thank you! I like draughting my own handbag patterns. So, I think it will have a vintage silhouette and faux bamboo handles (I already have the lovely handles). 🥰🎨🌸🧥👜
Love that beautiful pink and white tweed! The Burda pattern is a nice style. The beads will look beautiful on it. Happy sewing and beading! 😀💖🧥🌸💮
Thank you so much! I've started the beading on this jacket and it's so much fun!! It's taking forever but I absolutely love it. 🌸🎨💕🧥🥰
Beautiful! Eta: I just saw a Comme Des Garcons' dress made from satin and sequins. I'm definitely going to add you jacket to The inspiration. Thank you so much for posting! ❤
Thank you! I love CdG!! 🎨🥰🍂
Liked those changes you made to the fit. That jacket along with the fabric you chose looks so cute. Thanks.
Thank you! 😊🌸🧥💕🌸
I love this dress so much, and am dying to make it. I'm having a hard time deciphering the video/audio instructions. Are there written/picture instructions available? Thanks!!
Thanks! The bodice is Butterick B6677. The skirt is just strips of fabric pleated down. Skirt - tier 1 - 2 fat quarters (cut in halves and sewn in a long strip), tier 2 - 4 fat quarters (cut in halves and sewn in a long strip), tier 3 - a thin, 3 yard long leftover length of fabric. There are some info cards in my community posts section or you could also turn on the subtitles. Have fun! 🥰👗🎨
Thank you, Fin! Jackets for all seasons! ❤
Absolutely!! 🥰🎨🍁🧥🍂
Thank you, Fin! Sweet Tweed! ❤
Thanks, Robyn! It is a lovely tweed! It was fun to finally get to work on it. 🌸🎨💕🥰🧥
Can’t wait to see it beaded! Thanks so very much for sharing!❤️
You are so welcome! 🥰🎨🌸🧥💕
