I've spent hours trying to find these instructions in various books, magazines and patterns. NOTHING!! Nothing until this wonderful video popped up, that is. Many many thanks for your excellent instructions and tips -- I'd be lost without them!
I love this lesson. Stand collar and shawl collar patterns are easily understood because of your easy way explanation. Thank you for the de-mystification!
This is an excellent video! Just what I need to add a Claire McCardell all in one collar to a vintage style bodice. This is so clear and helpful and gives me confidence! Thank you.
Terrific! I really love the final correction from the green to the red line. I suspect the pulling may have to do with the straight grain of the fabric that makes the inner edge of the facing a little bit too tight. I can easily imagine that allowing a quarter of an inch more fabric at this point makes all the difference. Thank you!
THANK YOU for this! I've been wanting to add a pointed stand collar to a zip-front jacket, and you refined my plan. Now I have the confidence to go for it!
Brilliant, thank you so much! You are an excellent teacher, your explanations and demonstrations are so clear. I love having a formula to apply to different design projects. Thank you!
Excellent teacher. I’m kindergarten math but would have loved to have done pattern drafting. I think some time in your classroom would have been really helpful
wow! how clear and clean your teaching method is! collars are always a little intricate and tricky part of the garment, and this is thought so nicely! thank you I am subscribing in half video which out even watching it entirely!
Dang it! I wish I would have seen this video last week. I was patterning a coat for a play and got lazy and used a separate collar when I really wanted to draft an all in one collar. I should have just searched for the info I wanted and watched this video instead of just doing what I knew. Lazy fail!!! I’m saving the video and using for next time.
I wish you had classes close to me in Sunny Southern California! I love listening to you...I like your voice! It's so helpful...would love to see you sew this project start to finish. I am a fan!
Dr Kenneth,great .You are an excellent .Able to transfer your knowledge.I have drafted ny all -in-one stand up collar and i am excited .How do find more of these tutorial even for purchase.
Momzilla here again. I don't want to recreate a broken wheel, so I am hoping you can help me with an answer? I hate the way my husband's shirt buckles at the back neck when he leans forward and raises his arms. I see this all the time on TV with BIG Anchormen suit jackets. Sometimes it is so bad, it looks like the man is growing a Turtle Shell over his back. Could you please tell me, is this because the neckhole wasn't cut deep enough? Is there a standard rule to follow for the neck depth of a men's back shirt ? Thanks so very much Kenneth!
I love it but can’t get it to sew together without a crease. I try to sew the shoulder seam and use a clip to that inner corner to pivot to back neck seam (to make it continuous) but the seam allowance for the bottom of the back neck seam seems to be missing? what am i doing wrong?
I am presuming this method would work for an standing collar with a sweetheart neckline. After drafting the collar one would just redraw the the upper bodice to get the desired style line. Correct?
Hi Kevin, I just have to know... When assembling the stand up collar; is the collar sewn on to the back neck before the shoulder seams are closed? Thanks buddy. I'm obsessing!
With this type of collar, the shoulder seams and the back neck seam are typically sewn in one pass, being careful when pivoting to the neck seam or to the second shoulder seam
@@Threads I'm so excited. I love your lessons Kevin! It would be great if you could show a mock up installation of this collar. I've been searching everywhere on UA-cam and no one has this it. Melania Trump's blue coat at the inauguration was incredible! Would you think about giving us this lesson? Pretty please?
You would draft the entire front, make a complete front pattern, and then fit the low shoulder. Generally the shoulder slope for the lower shoulder tapers to nothing at the intersection of the collar and shoulder seam. Another option for a more pronounced slope is to use the complete front (and back) and cut the pattern across the complete pattern so it adjusts from the low shoulder on one side, and tapers to nothing on the other.
He needs to just do it in real time instead of explaining it like it was a math theory. Not an effective way to teach this stuff and what a shame since he must know a lot he can teach to the sewer. Shame.
Depends entirely on one's way of learning these things, I think. Me, I always remember things better if I grasp the principle first, so actually this is perfect for me. I would get lost in the details and not remember anything if it was in real time.
Not only does Professor King teach wonderful, helpful techniques, but he is a pleasure to watch because his videos are so clear and easy to follow.

It is a rare talent to be both knowledgable and able to transmit that knowledge to others. I wish you were my teacher in college.
You explained it systematically which I find it easy to grasp. An excellent teacher. Thank you!
That "pull" at the bottom of the facings has been the bane of my sewing existence. Thank you for sharing your solution.

Best 8:49 I've spent on UA-cam. Awesome tutorial - you're a great teacher!
Kenneth, everything you impart is first class, including that collar. The difference between looking homemade and tailored = Kenneth Training.
Thank you very much - Excellent teacher and well thought out instruction.
Those tips on the facing are especially priceless - thank you.
Thar 1/4 of an inch makes all the difference :) Thank you for the practical tips.
Totally awesome. Especially that last part where you explain what has always bothered me about my own jackets. Thank you!!
That 1/4-inch addition at the bottom of the facing is genius. I could watch your videos all day long. :o) Thanks, Annette
They were very interesting techniques that you used to show us how to achieve a proper neckline and collar too. Thanks for sharing your ideas with us.
I would like see a video tutorial how to draft a bodice showing body measurements explaining what each line is drawn is from. Thanks

His Videos are always so helpful
I appreciate the clarity so much.

You can see the process for the jacket in the article in the magazine!
Threads Magazines # or date would be helpful.
It appeared in spring of 2018. I don't have the number on hand, but it was earlier this year.
I'm happy to travel to Southern California! Is there a venue or group there that could be convinced to bring me there?
Excellent, thank you for your instructions.
Thanks, you make it so easy.

Thank you!!!!
I really like this look. Reminds me a little of Victorian men’s jackets. Very elegant and flattering, imo.
Hello sir... do you have more tutorials like this? They are just so easy to understand
Fantastic
Hola, donde estudiaste?

Dankeschön 😍
Dr Kenneth,great .You are an excellent .Able to transfer your knowledge.I have drafted ny all -in-one stand up collar and i am excited .How do find more of these tutorial even for purchase.
Is this done with the seam allowance included or it or net?
Good morning sir. Ur tutorials r superb. Today only I Have seen ur videos. Its good. Sir what is 2.25 Formula? Have to take 2.25 for everyone?
He merely means that that distance should always be 2.25" each time you use this method. It is a standard measurement.
Good.

Can you show us how to draft pattern for the bateau continous (rolled and standing) collar pls?
I love it but can’t get it to sew together without a crease. I try to sew the shoulder seam and use a clip to that inner corner to pivot to back neck seam (to make it continuous) but the seam allowance for the bottom of the back neck seam seems to be missing? what am i doing wrong?

What if you have one shoulder lower than the other? Would I be able to do this or does it throw the whole collar off?
You would draft the entire front, make a complete front pattern, and then fit the low shoulder. Generally the shoulder slope for the lower shoulder tapers to nothing at the intersection of the collar and shoulder seam. Another option for a more pronounced slope is to use the complete front (and back) and cut the pattern across the complete pattern so it adjusts from the low shoulder on one side, and tapers to nothing on the other.
I generally pad a low shoulder so everything balances.
Plz man faran d collar cutting & s
In the min 3:08.. point D mean point C in min 2:37 ?
Can you use this method on double breasted jacket?
Yes, you could, but please sew a muslin before you decide to do it in your fashion fabric to see if you like the look.
