Hello Jenna, what a fun video! I adore your fearless approach. I'm actually the one who drafted this shacket pattern for Mood. I've collaborated with Mood on over 300 free patterns and still counting! Here are a few observations that might be helpful: [] The pattern is made for a woven fabric - your fabric was stretchy and bouncy, but you still made it work! I would suggest staystitching the neckline and curved hem edges to keep the shape. [] The front ends of the hem facing are meant to tuck under the button placket, so you will want to do the hem before you finish the placket. Don't feel bad - they didn't catch that in the Mood blog post either. ;) If desired, the hem facing can be omitted and you can just do a plain seam. [] I think you were right to skip the French seams - too bulky! [] I'm kicking myself for not including side-seam pockets, but it should be easy enough to add them by borrowing a pocket from another pattern, if desired. >>> Your final result looks really nice and cozy!
i’m a beginner and i’m loving working on this pattern i just can’t figure out how to sew the collar! can you help me out? i know Jenna said leave open the long side and attach the short but wouldn’t the side your leaving open be the one attaching?
@@emily.t11 So glad to hear you are ready to tackle sewing and get through the learning curve! For the collar, you sew the sides and top edge of the collar first. Then attach the one undercollar neckline to the shirt neckline with right-sides together. After that, neatly tuck under the SA's of the collar and topstitch in place.
... I know I'm not supposed to say it out loud. But Jenna gets alot of " omg that's so good! Looks amazing!!" When it should really be " great try, but better luck next time"
Good to know that sometimes there are steps missing on the blog. I do have problems so many times sewing mood patterns because of that.
They use to be so awesome and easy, only if mood doesn't give for sure that people knows every step... Thank you very much!
I'm looking to make this for a 4th grader. I can probably downsize, but figured I'd ask first: Is there a smaller pattern size?
Tip for opening button holes from my sewing teacher. Place a pin across the edge that you are cutting towards. The quick-unpick can't cut through the pin so you'll not rip through the fabric😊
I'm planning my next sewing project (VERY much a beginner) so this video series is super inspiring! keep up the awesome work goiiiirl!
YAYY! I am soooo excited for you :)
I love the way you not only admit your mistakes, but go the extra mile to correct it and make it right. That’s how you learn…you don’t make the same mistake twice. You are adorable. 🥰♥️
These free pattern videos are soso helpful!! Also that flower top…. Is so Jenna, I love it
AHHHH I am so happy they are helpful because they are sooo fun to try!
Hopefully the fabric doesn’t shrink a second time! You have such a nice sense of construction. Love your clothes.
I have had luck with prewashing my fabric in the harshest way that may happen to it. I prewash in hot water and rinse (or wash until dye stops bleeding) before throwing in my laundry machine for a cycle. Once the garment is made then I only wash my clothes in tap cold water and air dry. That has always worked well for me and I haven't noticed any fabric shrinkage after a garment is made.
This is on my 2022 sewing list! I enjoyed watching you make it!
A good tip for adding sleeves, waistbands, etc. is the snip a little notch in the seam allowance and line them up with top of sleeve and the armhole. Hope this helps!
9:00 yes Jenna, I’m loving that sleeve 😂😍 I’m so in love with the final look!
You are so adorable and enjoyable to watch thank you for sharing with us Jenna!
Oh my, this is so beautiful 😍😭 I love your videos so much, you gave me a lot of inspiration and also I love your personality, you’re so fun to watch!! Sending lots of love all the way from slovenia 🥰🥰
i love your content jenna i really enjoyy crocheting while watching you you are really great keep up the amazing content
You did a great job Jenna, it's really cute & looks comfy. Luv your great personality & enthusiasm, and your darling fur baby. Hi from Texas.😁
The outcome was worth it. it’s beautiful.
It turned out so good!!!! Another amazing video!! Enjoy your new shacket!! 😍
This is definitely the kind of thing I'd make! I just did a project with button holes for the first time, terrifying then so satisfying!!
Thanks for sharing your process, including the mistakes that we've all made! The finished shacket looks beautiful.
Woow 🥺 I love to sew and I am a beginner. I searched for months to find free dress patterns to download and I found it in this video. Now I can make my own beautiful dresses. Thank you sooo much Jenna 🥺❤
She is beautiful!!! Totally want todo this!!! You did a great job!!
Nice job. You are definitely improving your sewing skills. Congrats on the cute jacket.
Thanks for making such authentic and cute videos
I love the shacket. I super enjoy your sewing videos. You are awesome!
That was really inspiring although I'm a total beginner, that was so nice, Jenna! Thank you for the video!
I think you had this extra space at the bottom facing because you decided on using the serger instead of the french seam method which was likely accounted for in the pattern. The french seam generally takes up another inch or so which is exactly the extra space you had!
Hi Loeka... Catina here from PatternHack (I'm the collaborator who drafts almost all of the Mood patterns). The front ends of the hem facing are supposed to tuck under the button placket. This reduces bulk and gives a clean finish.
When you named the first two sewing machines Barbara and Judy I instantly thought of A Star is born and expected you to name the third one after Lady Gaga lol
Watching you create is so therapeutic
That is so beautiful, and so are you, and very talented.👏👏👏
I am just starting out with sewing trough a online course and watching your videos makes me so excited to learn more! ❤
I would love a video on beginners/30 min projects!! Love the video💗
love watching your videos and recreating the things!!
Im always crocheting while i watch youre videooooos
You are so talent ...it turned out beautiful 👍 always love watching ur videos
GOOOOD JOB WOOOOOW. It’s so BEAUTIFUL
In general it is so cool, that you try the patterns
Way to go! You did such a great job. And good for you for taking the time to redo the collar. Isn’t it so satisfying?
Yessss Finally a new sewing video :)))
That is a beautiful shacket!
Well done Jenna!
Thank you for the video! Finally attempted it and it’s turned out great
You are too cute and funny and very talented. Love watching your thrift hauls and sewing.
Beautiful jacket, looks great on you.
Love your channel and definitely love the shacket
Sending lots of love and positive vibes from Toronto
You uploaded this as I was cutting out my fabric for this pattern and I am SO HAPPY I can watch it being sewn first, great timing haha thank you!!
Super cute! Loved this vid.
She is beautiful!!!
Brilliant looks amazing!❤️
Great jacket! Real nice work!♥️💖♥️🙏
Hi Jenna, here is a little tip when using a seam ripper to cut button holes. Put a pin in the end of button hole then seam ripper will only go that far and not rip any further. xxx PS Penelope has done a good job on the button holes.
I found thi pattern a few days ago and really wanted to do it but was nervous after watching this i think im going to make it Lol
Hi Grace! I drafted this pattern so I can give you a few tips. Try to choose a woven fabric as it will be easier to sew (and it is what the intended fabric is for this pattern. The hem facing actually is supposed to tuck under the button placket in the front corners - so you will do the hem before you topstitch the placket. You could also just skip the hem placket and do a regular hem. The fit is quite oversized (by design), so you don't have to worry much about a "perfect fit". I know you will do great!
Turned out pretty cute 💖🙊
Hai friend
Practice makes perfect you did it well done looks nice on you on wards and up wards ❤️👍
that is the most perfect thing i have seen😵😵😵😵😵😵😵😵

This outro is so cute
Omg can you please make a blanket hoodie ??? Those are so cutee !!
Agh you were one away from naming all of your sewing machines after my three aunts on my dads side, in birth order, who were Barbara, Judy, and Susan!
I just binged watched about 6 of your videos and I enjoy your personality ! Lol. I wish I could sew but I can’t! You should sew me one and send it to the US for me lol!
i made this a few weeks ago and it turned out awesome!
Ahhh so glad you liked the pattern too! I am honestly thinking about making another one now
That's so good to hear, congratulations!
I love that you named your machines. Mine are Little Nikki, Pearl, Rosie and Sergio (the serger). My mannequin is named Betsy! Love your videos. I'm planning panties this weekend thanks to you!
The reason why your hem facings were too short is that they are not supposed to go all the way to the edge of the front opening. They are supposed to end tucked inside the front button placket. So when you sewed the front button plackets as your first step, you should leave the bottom few inches open. Then tuck the end of the hem facing into that placket and then sew the last few inches of placket down. This will reduce the bulk in the front center corners.
You are absolutely correct! I drafted this pattern for Mood and that is exactly what was intended for the hem facing. This way, it reduces bulk and gives a clean finish.
@@PaTTernHack yup and with a thicker fabric it's very beneficial!
Omg!! Yessssss!
I have that same green black and decker iron 😜
The ultimate trick of lining up serged seams(works best with serged seams), is to let the edges 'hug'.
1. Hold the two layers in your hand
2. fold the edge near to you to the left, fold the edge away from you to the right
3. Now a little 'edge' emerges because of the fold, both in opposite direction
4. press slightly both sides against eachother until you kinda feel the edges push aganst eachother.
5. pin it and just sew it with a few stitches with your sewing machine.
6. Pin the rest of your sleeve/whatever(I use this trick on lycra, works like a charm even with high stretch fabrics)
7. serge the rest of the hem.
U are amazing.
Girl! U r smokin!!!😁😀😌
Nice shacket. I think the original pattern of the bottom trim is not wrong. You added a small piece to it, so it would fit over the whole length of the bottom. But the inseams of the two front parts are supposed to go full length from neckline to bottom and the bottom trim has to go under it. So the trim can be a little shorter (the width of the inseam minus 1 cm). Alternatively, but not often done with jackets, you can cut the bottom trim full width of the jacket and stich it 45 degrees angled to the front inseam.
Great catch, Marlene! (I drafted this pattern for Mood and you are correct)
54 yo grandma here. I really enjoy watching your videos Jenna
Muchas gracias 🎉❤ desde Argentina
Fabricana -- love it! It's called Fabricville here in Quebec 😅
I literally thought Penelope and then you said Penelope and now I think I’m psychic
You are as creative with names as I am 😂 your mannequin is Manni and my port is Porter 🤣
Love the outcome of this project 😍
love the green jumper you're wearing in the begining! did you knit it yourself? looks simmilar to the one from that course from demestika
So beautiful. It helps to get the collar to lay down, if the underside is slightly' 'smaller' than the top piece. smaller the short way, especially. Sometimes you even get two patterns. Especially for heavy fabrics. If that right side corner continues to stick up, you might consider picking away your sewing and re sew it by checking the curve, and then sewing it on, maybe by hand. Does that make any sense? lol
So, I want to make this jacket too, but the sizes really confuse me, which size did you use? I‘m scared it‘s gonna turn out way too big lol
Hi Jenna, I’m so happy to have found a free pattern for the Shacket! I have a question: does it have pockets for your hands?
Hi! I'm the collaborator who drafts the free Mood patterns. I'm so bummed that I didn't think to include side-seam pockets for this one, but you can easily borrow a pocket from one of the other free Mood patterns and use it for this shacket.
Pro tip: sew the shoulders together then the top of the sleeve , then sew the arm all the way down threw the arm pit , past the arm pit seam and down to to the bottom of the jacket the side from wrist to hip.also hem the bottom, then the fron so your doubled hem faces downward 😉
Have you seen the trillium ensemble from mood fabrics? I have been dying to make it for almost a year I think, just need the motivation hahaha. But it is so freaking cute and I'll think you will like it a lot!! xx
Te quedó muy hermoso Jenna, pero los ojales se hacen en horizontal (el aparato para hacer ojales lo indica en la punta que va con el borde de la tela) y el cierre de las mangas te quedó al revés, tiene que ir de adelante hacia atrás. De todas maneras, felicitaciones y me encantan tus vídeos!!! Saludos desde Chile 🇨🇱♥️👏
Please do another crochet balaclava tutorial!!
you can use a razor blade to cut in the button holes rather than a seam ripper
The part where you though you're almost done then saw a part where you sewed something upside down. Relate much 😂
Sewing seems like magic to me. How. Do. You. Do. That?
Love this shaket Jenna but oh my days isn’t is life sucking when you have to undo and redo the work!😖 well done it looks fab
🚨🚨Sewing tip 🚨🚨 when you seam rip button holes put a pin at the end horizontal so that way you don’t over rip the hole! It stops the seam ripper
Can i get a reply from the queen herself. I love your videos ;)
For the hem facing, it looks like you’re supposed to sew it to the bottom of the front facing first, and fold the front edge with the hem facing attached to it inside out, then sew the hem and the the bottom of the facing in one continuous stitching. That probably didn’t make sense. Sorry! It’s hard to explain in words…
Hi Sachi... you nailed it! I'm the collaborator that drafts all of the free Mood patterns - even they didn't catch this detail when the sewed the sample for blog instructions.
The name of my sewing machine is Melissa😂 a long story why I named her Melissa. And I really like your jacket
The projects I did in sixth form, last year of high school, for my art class i named Barbara and Penelope...
Really like your jacket in 3:37 !!
Where did you bought it from??
