nah not at all yet. knoch is so much more familiar with patternmaking and the technical side of sewing, much cleaner lines/stitching etc

this jacket took a long ass time because i ran into a lot of problems with it and basically made it twice. like two months
cost is probably around 80 dollars for materials

>>9312604
>>9312625
mostly from rockywoods fabrics, zippers and snaps from ebay
i havent taken any classes but i might go to school for fashion this year. i bought a pattern online for a bomber, made a jacket following that to see how it would turn out and become more familiar with it, then i edited the pattern a lot for this one. havent read any books but i hope to.

>>9312611
<pic is the only one i have atm

>>9312636
just spend some money on decent materials and get at it. good synthetics are pretty cheap (9~10 a yard) and you only need about two yards for the shell and two for the liner for a jacket. (insulation is a different story, i spent about 35 bucks on two yards of primaloft to insulate this jacket but not every jacket needs insulation). if you are making a jacket with a liner, get a pattern w/ instructions online because it is kind of confusing how to do that if you've never done it before

Also if you have pants with a flat felled seam on the inside you open up both the inside and outside seam up to the flat felled one on the waist and then re-do and press the inside flat felled seam again before closing the basic outside seam when the trousers are turned inside out. This shit is basic spacial awareness.

i've tapered several pants from the outside and they are all fine, its a case by case basis tho because some wouldnt have enough room between the thighs if you do it that way.

it takes up the rise if you dont undo the seam completely and just sew above it which is what a lot of 'beginners tutorials' tell you to do

Perseverance ≠ knowledge ≠ talent

He even admits he just modified an existing pattern, so he's just able to read instructions. That doesn't mean that he knows how to tailor everything. Not knocking on the fact that he stuck to it and made this jacket, but no reputable tailor would ever take in a jean from the outseam given how many things you have to open up and fuck with. His jacket is fine, but it doesn't detract from the bad advice he gave.

I get when we try to respect differences in opinion in things like inspiration threads, cop or not threads, and whatever, but this is pretty cut and dry. If an anon is asking for information, shouldn't be at least somewhat concerned with the accuracy of what we share?

Despite being disproportionalty large, the head hole barely fits over my head. I didn't use enough material for the collar so 3/4 of the head hole has a collar. The patterned shirt fit really loosely but this shirt is way to tight, and the shoulder holes are uncomfortably tight. Not to mention the thread broke every 2 minutes.

You can't. That's a function of the actual pattern pieces. That said, all twills have a bit of natural twist to them (left hand vs. right hand), which is why legs of jeans tend to wrap a touch around your ankle.
