I'm trying to learn pattern drafting at the same time as sewing, and this is exactly what I needed to know how to turn the pattern into a finished piece! Thank you ;-; Beginner friendly without feeling like a slog. Seriously, you're a lifesaver.
This is such a great video! I was scared to sew my first vest for a cosplay. Thanks to your step-by-step I managed to do a good job!!!
Glad I could help!
What do you call an alligator with a vest?
An investigator.
Haha
OH MY GOSH! The technique starting at 8:07 to pull the one side through the back opening to sew the one side as a complete circle. GENIUS!! Oh my gosh, that saved so much stress. I have been sewing vests for years and did not know this technique. Saved so much time and stress. Thank you!
You're very welcome :D Happy I could help.
This is the first time a video for sewing a lining for a vest has made any kind of sense to me. I’ve seen the burrito method a half billion times and I can never figure it out. This actually makes sense. Thank you so much.
I have been making a vest over the past two days from one of the big 4 and I was so utterly confused on how to sew the main to the lining and turn them inside out. The instructions just did not make sense and had terrible illustrations. Thank you so much for this video! It was a million times more helpful than the instructions and I'm saving it in case I need it again later!
I have new sewn clothes before and used your tutorial to sew my very own vest! It turned out pretty good for my first time. Thank you so much for making this video, it was so helpful!
Great job! I'm happy to hear that.
LOVE how you show via fast video and get straight to the how-to. Excellent!
You're welcome :)
Thank You Sew Very Much!
I'm a sixty four year old male retiree and I just got into sewing because I saw a series of videos from a channel called 'Tock Custom' and they hypnotized me to the point where I purchased a Singer 44S Heavy Duty Sewing Machine Online! (I'd like to add, "Damn Him, That Thoroughly Convincing Bastard!) I hate to admit that I've been enjoying myself. (Again, "DAMN HIM!!!)
I ended up sewing my very first garment, which was something I've always wanted since I was a kid, an Inverness Cloak! I was a fan of a television Soap Opera called "Dark Shadows" and one of the characters was a Vampire by the name of Barnabas Collins and he wore a very stylish Inverness Cloak! But that particular style of garment is very expensive and not very available. The one's for sale online seem to start at $700.00!!! The cheap ones for Halloween costumes fall apart too easily. So when I got my machine, I decided that this would be my very first garment!
(Yeah, No Pressure! Right!)
I had some black Fleece fabric laying around from a friend's previous project and purchased a few more yards at a local fabric store and what the Hell, I DID IT!!! I actually was able to finish it before Halloween and I wore it for that occasion! Sure, there were some mistakes but I was able to fix or hide them and to my eyes, it came out wonderfully! It was a very cold night but the Fleece kept me warm and toasty and I was complemented for my costume! Yeah! It felt really good!
So, your vest tutorial came out at just the right time for me because I do like vests or waistcoats as well! I'm starting to look at fabrics for this project right now! It is very satisfying getting to wear what you actually make!
So, Thank You for the Tutorial and the Inspiration!
Happy that you picked up sewing, it's lots of fun to make things. And you're welcome for the video.
Thank you very much, your video save me to fall in despair! I am doing a vest for my brother (cosplaying Loki president) and I bought a Burda pattern, and even though the pattern is really helpful for the size accuracy, instructions for the sewing are minimal and impossible to understand. So I was lost, and without your video I would had no chance to sew it. Thanks!!!
Glad I could help! Have fun sewing.
Thank you so much! I was struggling with closing the side seams of the waistcoat I'm making before I watched this. Also, its so good not to have annoying music in the background.
Absolutely amazing! Thank you so much. When I tried to follow the instructions on the pattern I ended up with a waistcoat totally inside out - my brain doesn’t work well with lining fabric. I spent an hour unpicking it & another hour following you clear visuals and instructions to complete my waistcoat - the correct way round !!
Wonderful! I'm happy my video helped. Thanks
Thank you. I made my 4 granddaughters, DIL, and myself Easter dresses but couldn’t decide on what to do for my husband, son, and 2 grandsons to coordinate. This is perfect.
Wonderful! You're welcome :)
Thank you so much. I was making a vest for my bilbo cosplay and to say I was lost would be an understatement. I was so confused I thought about giving up. Thank you for your easy to follow tutorial!
Glad I could help!
Omgee! I am also here for my bilbo costume 😂
Thank you! I’ve used this a couple of times now to make vests for my hubby. Couldn’t have done it without your excellent tutorial.
The best how to video on lining a vest, HANDS DOWN!
Wow, thanks!
I agree....timesaving also
Hands down the best tutorial I found on this. I am wearing my vest everywhere now.
Wow! Thank you, happy I could help.
Thank you very much. I like not having music . I have made a vest using another video and screwed it up. This helps me a lot. Your comment about button holes is me now as the vest I messed up I did on a serger with home dec fabric. I wanted to do a chilly weather vest. Thanks again.
You're welcome. Good luck with your sewing project.
This video has been very helpful for me. I’ll be sewing my waistcoat while checking your video as I go. Thank you so much.
Great video on making a vest 60 years in the trade and learning something each day…
I am 82 years old and still learning

This is fabulous! I have a very long waist & have struggled to find a vest for foxhunting (very specific color/shape) so I’ve been considering sewing one. This makes it look quite reasonable to do. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Hi! This tutorial is super easy to follow as far as the sewing part goes, but I’m super new to pattern making and struggling to figure out how to make the pattern part. Would you be able to explain how you did that?
Thank you so much. I learnt a lot from you.
Thanks! I'm happy I helped.
Thank you for sharing ✂️💙

Amazing nice teaching
love the video! though would you mind telling me where you got your pattern, and how you altered the pattern to fit you?
I used a commercial pattern and make a mockup/practice with scrap fabric and the pinned it smaller and re-traced it onto paper.

Hi this is so so so awesome can you do a waist coat with the lapel(flap) like a 1920s waist coat??? Please please
Hi thank you so much, I missed how much fabric is needed
Depends on your size and how long you want it. The estimated amount when be on the pattern package.
Where can I get fabric with my custom artwork?
Thank you sew much. The hardest part for me is drawing the pattern, I’m a beginner and I really wanted to skip that part (obviously can’t) coz just thinking about it makes me feel lazy hahaha
You can do it! There are many commercial made ready to buy patterns of vests so you don't have to do it yourself.
Check out Lutterloh. Works on The Golden Rule System.
How long did you need from start to finish?
I'm contemplating making a lined leather western/motorcycle vest but I'm not used to using a sewing machine although my mother could probably coach me along, she can sew pretty well. How do you think you could do making a lined leather vest?
I'm assuming real leather? It is thicker and less easy to work with, but you can definitely give it a go. It's great that someone can help you when you're stuck. Since leather is not really cheap, you can practice with cheaper fabric first, but that is up to you.
I was recently told that for leather fabric - it can be cheaper to look for second hand leather couches in your area (offer up, a local buy nothing group, on the curbs outside of apartments after move out dates etc) - apparently it's a thing to harvest the fabric and toss (or chop and burn) the frame.
A question please can i overlock the edge of the pieces in my case the zigzag or its not necessary. Thank you
Yes you can overlock the edges, especially if the fabric frays easily.
