I’m glad that you didn’t put any music background but I prefer to hear you talking explaining or narrating what you’re doing. I love to hear your voice.
@@CorneliusQuiring, I loved the video. It seems like you had to move the camera a hundred times. Does anyone help you with measuring and marking for finishing touches like hem length? Did you do these in just one day? Anyway, the background sounds toward the end were pleasant and it seemed perfect for the anticipation of a completed job that was well done. I do like that feeling.
This is inspiring to watch. Tomorrow I'm going to be starting my sewing journey by making scrunchies. Maybe next year I'll be making my own trousers like you! 🤞🏻
Very precise sewing and finishing around the pleats, waistband, pockets and zips. Very well adjusted to your slim frame. You are developing a very good and useful skill here. Congratulations.
I bought a machine, need to make a workable and then wait for the sun to give charge to the solar panels, so I can embark on this journey. Lots of repairs first, then bespoke farming clothes. What an inspiration you are! Man, I can only dream of having a fraction of your skill!
Cornelius, this is mesmerising. It is total Genius. You make creating these pants look so easy. Breaking down and demystifying the process. Your instruction is freeing my sewing creativity. Thank you ❤
Videos like these are such a rare find on UA-cam, amazingly clear by just showing what to do, with only adding instruction when necissary. Amazing content and talent. keep it up.
Hey Cornelius I subscribed to your channel a couple of years ago and life goes on and I saw you in my list and decided to have a watch and now you're a master tailor getting 10,000 views Your sewing is incredible I kept saying "oh my god" out loud at the expertise you've achieved since your earlier videos! You should be so proud of yourself There's a comment somewhere from about two years where I predicted your videos would grow popular It was so obvious because you're such a character and so charismatic and natural It's made my day Still love your early vids though! Well done!
It's so nice to see you in the comments again! Reading your comment yesterday made me feel really good about myself. It's a challenge sometimes to see my own progress because I'm the one taking every step, but having you reflect it back to me gives me a good perspective. Thanks for being one of the early supporters! I really do appreciate it.
I don't know anything about this sort of thing, or why I'm watching this, but my man here's got skills. I guess I'm just fascinated with craftsmanship.
I like this format of video. Also I adore your personality you exposed in previous videos. I would enjoy your talk in intro and then would love to see such detailed focused on process video. Thank you for making videos!
Exceptionally Well Done!!! I get a lot of joy and inspiration from watching you sew. I'm sure whoever taught you to sew must be extremely proud of you. The fact that you construct such well-fitting garments without the aid or guidance of commercial patterns is truly masterful!
Oh my. Those are very kind words. Thank you. I have UA-cam to thank. I have just patched together different tutorials to figure out what I need to know to make what I want.
@@CorneliusQuiring can you suggest me any yt channels to learn sewing for beginners?, Like how to make pants including the pattern step by step..i think i really want to take thus seriously now 😂😂, seeing your video has really inspired me to do the same
It's not so much that there are specific channels that I've used to learn, but more so just searching for techniques and skills I am interested in. So say for example "how to sew a pants zipper". Or, "how to sew a welt pocket" As for pants, you're in luck. I just spent the last few months putting together a deep dive series on how to sew men's pants from scratch: ua-cam.com/play/PLtDVn_Yb2SVunNpcCO_g8n-uJUS_ZhsgA.html
@@CorneliusQuiring i see..it's just that it can be a little bit harder to learn by watching videos since you can't really see the detail quite clearly, but anyway thanks for the reply and thanks for the link
Great video. I enjoyed watching it. Seeing the details helps me to learn, just as you said in your comment; a how-to video. Thank you for sharing your sewing talent. The video production is well done, also. It is a joy to watch. Thank you.
Those pants look great on you and I love the color you choose. All around awesome job 👏👏 as someone who has never touched a sewing machine, this is incredible
It is with great pleasure to always click on your videos! So young and so dedicated and passionate about this craft! I sew everyday and these sounds are so hitting home hehe.This made me realise that I love these sounds and i would miss this craft if I would be in a situation that I couldn't sew. I can't imagine not to practice this beautiful craft. To me it's like sculpting which I always wanted to learn but I ha e other skills that are close to it. Kudos to you for your great self made wardrobe! It is a special feeling when someone asks where you get them from and you can say: I made them! Much love from the far corner of Transylvania, Romania
Oh my, those are very kind and flattering words. Thank you. It felt great to wake up this morning and read your message. It's wonderful to hear from others around the world who also enjoy the art of making clothes and yes, it's a fulfilling feeling to be able to say, I made these clothes. Thank you for watching!
Beautiful production quality and a great pair of pants. I can only imagine the hours of time involved in filming, changes and editing. Well done. The pants are nice too. You sure went for some bling on that button. 😂😂❤️❤️
What can I say, a bit of gold detailing really gets me every time. Thank you for the kind words. Yes, it was entirely too much work making this video! But now that it's done, I am happy I did. 🙂
I am glad to hear you like it. I did a full tutorial on these pants here: ua-cam.com/video/j9ljDpkkB8w/v-deo.html and I also did a general pants making video here: ua-cam.com/video/Y_c1xdDOSGA/v-deo.html Thanks for watching.
I think here in North America, at leat in my school days, it was referred to as home economics. The "basics" of living at home and in society. Haha. Not sure if it's still a thing here. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Keep making great contents as always. I have been watching you videos to create a future wardrobe full of clothes tailored to my body since I’m always having a hard time finding clothes that looks good on myself.
Well thank you for watching. Making a wardrobe is a very rewarding feeling so I hope you do make one. We really do each have unique body types as well as styles.
WOW. WOW. WOW. You are so inspiring! I've been wanting to try pants for a long time but they seem so complicated. This proved they are!!! you execute with such precision and the style is just wonderful! When I have a couple of months of free time maybe I'll give this a go 😁
Hi Cornelius. I have just disovered your videos. May i say i find you awe inspiring. A man of many talents. I am just about to start my own oattern making journey and find your videos very helpful. Thank you so much.
I recommend a lesson an experienced teacher told me. Get a piece of lined paper and use it to 'sew' on. Don't put any thread in your machine, just use the lined paper as the fabric and sew a straight stitch following the lines. Do the same with any shape you want to draw - blank paper draw curves or circles. Practice. It works.
This is such a well put together video, from the shot setup to even the motion design. I think it's amazing how you captured the entire process. It just shows how much love you have for tailoring. My only question is (and I know it is something outside of the realm of the video), how did you go about creating your original guides and patterns? What is a resource you used or tips you would give to someone wanting to create their own guides for pieces? Also are there any resources/books that you read about men's tailoring that helped you hash out the steps needed to create the correct fit for clothes, or is it something you have discovered more with trial and error? Either way, fantastic work. Keep it up!
Thank you for the kind words! It's really been a process of trial and error. I started by downloading a pants template off of freesewing.org and sewed it. Then I tweaked it until I got it to fit me well. I have also in the past bought pants from the thrift store that I though fit well and took them apart so I could copy the pattern. I hope that helps.
@@CorneliusQuiring Question. Did you add zigzag stitching at the very end of the front pleats? I couldn't totally tell. I'd figure yes since it would be a stress point, but I thought I'd ask. Bonus question: Where did you source the fabric? Locally or is it somewhere you might be able to link for us? Keep on, keepin' on, Corn. ✌
You are correct. I did add zig-zag stitches on the end of the pleats for strength. And yes, I did buy my fabrics locally. Being able to feel the fabric is an important part of the buy experience for me.
I have a pattern very similar to yours and wanted a walk through before I got started. Great video especially the zipper(I’m not good with them). My pattern has a step not included in your video to iron pant legs before any sewing and stretching them in certain directions and then steaming them, then start the pockets. Do you have any videos on that? I want my pants to look the best I can but not sure about this step.
I do not have any videos on stretching and steaming fabrics. That is certainly an interesting technique though to essentially mould & shape fabric. I haven't done too much of it but may do a video eventually when I feel more confident in my technique.
Watching you wear pants that are filled with pins filled me with anxiety. None the less, it was both interesting to watch and has inspired me to try to make some pants.
Look I won't get into nobody's business, but the flipflops with this shirt and pants made me laugh a little 😭 idk why but I feel like some sleepers would fit better
Great video! The pants came out great!!! Kinda nostalgic styling, thought it would look better if the waistband was considerably thinner as the top of the pant had enough extra fabric itself and isn’t needed in the waistband…??? If it were modernized…hmmmm…..Thanks!!!
That's the fun thing about sewing, we all have our slightly unique and different ways we want to make our clothes. It's always nice to hear other peoples ideas. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Another joy to watch video! Very inspiring how the construction flows and the quality of the make 💯 I was wondering what you were using for interfacing. Maybe something from Vlieseline?
I used what I can best describe as run-of-the-mill interfacing from my local shop :). It's a light to medium weight adhesive interfacing. Thanks for watching.
I saw the button flap from the blue pants video had some trouble looking round. I suggest instead of just snipping the edge, cut little darts out of the seam allowance and it should obey a little more readily I do see that it turned out beautifully on this pair so great job I would enjoy a bit more conversation so we can get to know you and your projects a little more
Yeah, I definitely did not put enough notches in the blue pair of pants! Also, good to know you want to hear a bit more from me and the motivations behind them. Context is important. Thank you for the feedback, it helps me grow.
Mr. Corn (may I call you Corn?) You have done it again! You had my hopes high from your Instagram and you have delivered ten fold. This was a pleasure to consume. Your stitches were absolutely pristine and that is just the beginning of my praise. I have so many questions, I don’t know where to begin. I hope this is a first of many for you! Seriously, killer work!!! 👾🔥👾 Edit: I have all this to say and I’m only seven minutes into the video!
Oh my. I feel very flattered. Thank you for the kind words. I am glad to hear you are enjoying it and ask away. I will try my best to answer all the questions as best I can. Thank you for watching.
They are looking very nice! Do you maybe have a video on drafting the pattern for them? it would be nice to know how to make them... But it does look like in the video you use some what of a basic pattern and then adjust it, am I correct in assuming that?
Yes, I have a basic block pattern that I use as the foundation for all my projects. I do not unfortunately have a video on drafting the pattern of these, but I've had several requests so I'll probably make one at some point. I'll let you know when I do.
@@CorneliusQuiring that sound great! I did get a book yesterday on men’s patterns so will read about it there as well but a video is always welcome! :) and thank you for making them!
That is so cool! I want to learn how to sew these pants in 30 days, but probably not possible. I've only ever tapered jeans and shirts in the past. BUT I'M WILLING TO TRY! Any tips?
I like the enthusiasm. I am sure you can learn the basics in less then 30 days! I recently did a full tutorial series on both drafting a pair of pants and then sewing them. That might be of interest to you?! ua-cam.com/play/PLtDVn_Yb2SVunNpcCO_g8n-uJUS_ZhsgA.html
Yes, the pattern I drafted in the video is the same one I used to make the pants in this video (of course with a few minor tweaks to make them high-waisted.)
You did a great job! So I attempted to make pants last year but the sizing of the legs turned out too slim. How do you ensure that the pattern size is correct before cutting the material?
Well congrats on giving it a go. A good rule of thumb would be following: 1. Measure the circumference of your thighs. 2. Add about 3 - 4 inches for room so they aren't skin tight. 3. Now add another 1.5 inches for seam allowance. 4. Finally, divide by 2 and you have a good width for the 2 pieces of each leg. As well, it's always easier to size down than up, so don't be afraid of making the pattern pieces bigger than you think you need them. I hope that makes sense & helps.
Just discovered your videos. I'm so impressed. I've been watching as I sew for the last 2 days savoring each one. 😊 I do have 2 questions. First, where did you learn to sew? (Maybe I just haven't gotten to that video yet. ) Secondly, what is the name of the curved needle that you use to conceal your serged ends?
Well thank you for watching! I am self-taught off of UA-cam and a whole lot of practise :) As for the needle, that's called a large-eyed blunt needle. hope that helps.
hi cornelius! I was wondering, what pattern do you use as the base? I’m making my boyfriend a pair of pants for the first time and I’m very lost 😅 love the video!
I have created my own pattern based on random UA-cam videos. Good news though: my next, next video is how going to be a pattern drafting tutorial. Bad news: it's gonna take about a month to make.

What fun is life if there isn't a little danger?! 😏 Thanks for watching.
Look I won't get into nobody's business, but the flipflops with this shirt and pants made me laugh a little 😭 idk why but I feel like some sleepers would fit better
Seems you caught me in the comfort wear of sewing in my own home :) Thank for watching.
Great video! The pants came out great!!! Kinda nostalgic styling, thought it would look better if the waistband was considerably thinner as the top of the pant had enough extra fabric itself and isn’t needed in the waistband…??? If it were modernized…hmmmm…..Thanks!!!
That's the fun thing about sewing, we all have our slightly unique and different ways we want to make our clothes. It's always nice to hear other peoples ideas. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Andddd subscribed, this is great content; very nice production quality, it’s better than legacy media by far
You are kind, thank you!
Another joy to watch video! Very inspiring how the construction flows and the quality of the make 💯 I was wondering what you were using for interfacing. Maybe something from Vlieseline?
I used what I can best describe as run-of-the-mill interfacing from my local shop :). It's a light to medium weight adhesive interfacing. Thanks for watching.
I love it 🥺❤ good job
Thank you and thanks for watching!
@@CorneliusQuiring you are welcome , keep up
Great video
Thanks.
Soo nice! Thanks!
O my god this looks amazing I wish I was so good as you
I am glad to hear you like them. With a bit of practice, you could make them too. 😊
@@CorneliusQuiring Yea i need to practice a lot, i still dont know how to draw patterns its complicated for me :(
I am still confused by patterns sometimes. But I like the challenge.
I personally prefer the pleats to start right at the top, it looks a lot smoother I think. But apart from that, a great piece of satorial art!
Right on. Thanks for watching!
Hey Cornelius! That's an amazing job! Would you mind telling me what type of fabric this is?
Thank you for the kind words. It is a cotton twill fabric. The type chino's are usually made out of.
I saw the button flap from the blue pants video had some trouble looking round. I suggest instead of just snipping the edge, cut little darts out of the seam allowance and it should obey a little more readily
I do see that it turned out beautifully on this pair so great job
I would enjoy a bit more conversation so we can get to know you and your projects a little more
Yeah, I definitely did not put enough notches in the blue pair of pants!
Also, good to know you want to hear a bit more from me and the motivations behind them. Context is important. Thank you for the feedback, it helps me grow.
Mr. Corn (may I call you Corn?)
You have done it again! You had my hopes high from your Instagram and you have delivered ten fold. This was a pleasure to consume. Your stitches were absolutely pristine and that is just the beginning of my praise. I have so many questions, I don’t know where to begin. I hope this is a first of many for you! Seriously, killer work!!!
👾🔥👾
Edit: I have all this to say and I’m only seven minutes into the video!
Oh my. I feel very flattered. Thank you for the kind words. I am glad to hear you are enjoying it and ask away. I will try my best to answer all the questions as best I can.
Thank you for watching.
They are looking very nice! Do you maybe have a video on drafting the pattern for them? it would be nice to know how to make them... But it does look like in the video you use some what of a basic pattern and then adjust it, am I correct in assuming that?
Yes, I have a basic block pattern that I use as the foundation for all my projects. I do not unfortunately have a video on drafting the pattern of these, but I've had several requests so I'll probably make one at some point. I'll let you know when I do.
@@CorneliusQuiring that sound great! I did get a book yesterday on men’s patterns so will read about it there as well but a video is always welcome! :) and thank you for making them!
My pleasure and good luck! Tag me if you end up posting a photo of your make.
@@CorneliusQuiring will... might take a while as I plan to sew them by hand. :)
That is so cool! I want to learn how to sew these pants in 30 days, but probably not possible. I've only ever tapered jeans and shirts in the past. BUT I'M WILLING TO TRY!
Any tips?
I like the enthusiasm. I am sure you can learn the basics in less then 30 days! I recently did a full tutorial series on both drafting a pair of pants and then sewing them. That might be of interest to you?! ua-cam.com/play/PLtDVn_Yb2SVunNpcCO_g8n-uJUS_ZhsgA.html
@@CorneliusQuiring very much so, thank you for the follow up!
@@CorneliusQuiring any specific fabric you would recommend for a guy who is 78 inches tall?
I would recommend a cotton twill. I found it enjoyable earlier on in my sewing days.
duuude nice job!
Excellent! Thx for sharing.
🤠🙏🏻
Love it and love your channel. Please do more videos (longer ones :-) ) Thanks you for a nice 20min show :-)
Well thank you for the kind words and thanks for watching. I am still at it making videos regularly :)
Great job.
Thank you.
This is so inspiring! Are you using the same tecniques for when you drafted your pants in your other video?
Yes, the pattern I drafted in the video is the same one I used to make the pants in this video (of course with a few minor tweaks to make them high-waisted.)
Beautiful
Thank you
I would like to see an easy pair of white linen pants either pockets
Great thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching.
Amazing !
Thanks!
Thank u !
You did a great job! So I attempted to make pants last year but the sizing of the legs turned out too slim. How do you ensure that the pattern size is correct before cutting the material?
Well congrats on giving it a go. A good rule of thumb would be following:
1. Measure the circumference of your thighs.
2. Add about 3 - 4 inches for room so they aren't skin tight.
3. Now add another 1.5 inches for seam allowance.
4. Finally, divide by 2 and you have a good width for the 2 pieces of each leg.
As well, it's always easier to size down than up, so don't be afraid of making the pattern pieces bigger than you think you need them.
I hope that makes sense & helps.
@@CorneliusQuiring thank you!
Just discovered your videos. I'm so impressed. I've been watching as I sew for the last 2 days savoring each one. 😊 I do have 2 questions. First, where did you learn to sew? (Maybe I just haven't gotten to that video yet. ) Secondly, what is the name of the curved needle that you use to conceal your serged ends?
Well thank you for watching! I am self-taught off of UA-cam and a whole lot of practise :)
As for the needle, that's called a large-eyed blunt needle. hope that helps.
@@CorneliusQuiring Thank you!
Nice work mate, at the rate people are going Clothe shops will be out of business cause people will end up taking up sewing to make their own LOL!!
Wouldn't that be a wonderful world. Maybe we would have less clothing waste then :)
hi cornelius! I was wondering, what pattern do you use as the base? I’m making my boyfriend a pair of pants for the first time and I’m very lost 😅 love the video!
I have created my own pattern based on random UA-cam videos.
Good news though: my next, next video is how going to be a pattern drafting tutorial.
Bad news: it's gonna take about a month to make.
still a bit conflicted on both high rise pants and pleats, they seem to work on taller guys of athletic build, but this pair looks great on you.
I appreciate the kind words and yes, not all clothes look good on everyone :)
