- This video is a tutorial for making a dress shirt by hand, which will have no exposed seams.
Not being able to remake the whole video (yet) I remade the intro to fix the audio issues it had.

May I make a suggestion... The use of a material that has a noticeable Right/Wrong side would make it easier to follow the process.
Thank you, this video should be my top priority to fix, so I'll get an appropriate material
truly bespoke, thank you so much
I see you've got an older Janome machine, Nice. I've just purchased a newer computerized Brother machine which helps save time immensely for me, especially when making waistcoats! I am in the process of perfecting making shirts and I love this video. I prefer double cuffs at all times, it's a comfort thing
Just found your channel . Great content and thorough instructions. I will be working my way through all your videos. You are obviously talented. Thanks for taking you time to teach us.
Thanks for you work! It is very useful!
Yes but please show us how to make a tabcollar out off a normal collar please
Thanks!!!!!
First time of watching , what a talent , lovely. How long did it take you to master tailoring. Thanks for posting video.
I've been learning for maybe 4 years by now. But this video I'm not too happy with anymore, it needs to be updated. Thanks though
Thnks lots
so ok bro... you down...
Have you thought about using French seams? I find i can get a super tight seam along with it looking neater and being quicker than me trying to do a flat-felled seam. Theyre a pain if you have to alter the shirt though...
I expect it's difficult to alter the shirt to make it bigger anyway
I would agree it's probably much quicker, but I figured the point of flat felled is to keep the seam flat with the rest of the cloth rather than the French seam sticking out from the fabric.
Can u tell me shirt measurements and how do you draft that pattern I want learn it so
Bruh
@@caffeinatedtailor tell me sir
What size stitch should be used on a bespoke shirt?
In bespoke, typically much more dense. Often about 1.5 on the machine, if the dial is in numerals, or about B if it's alphabetical. I don't remember the stitches per inch though.
Wow the amount of depth on the side seems at the waist point reminds me my youth days 😢😊
I'm enjoying it while I can🫡
@@caffeinatedtailor I’m sure you do 😉👍
I’m really struggling to sew the curved hem on the shirt
I actually found this video really helpful to me czcams.com/video/mreUDKlDrUI/video.htmlsi=-CqvavqCcnGwyobv
Great video. Out of interest, where are you based and where did you learn your craft?
London. I learnt the draft from a video on my university video platform. The make from a domestic-shirt maker. I need to thoroughly remake this video, among others, in light of new knowledge
@@caffeinatedtailor London, cool. I ask as I am looking for a shirtmaker to collaborate with. Do you work for yourself? I'm over in Bristol.
Pardon my ignorance; I've done precious little sewing in my life. The only time I ever had to sew a button hole was for a quick 3 day project in a college class where the professor showed us how to do it on a sewing machine. is there a reason you do it by hand?
You definitely can
@@caffeinatedtailor I was going to ask why you might hand sew it instead, but I just found your video on that topic. Thanks for the reply!
@@lasersight70 I actually misread at first. I thought you asked if one could sew a *button* by machine.
Sewing a buttonhole by machine is fine too, especially on shirts if you have the machinery for that.
Although like you've said I have touched the topic of hand sewing buttonholes by hand.
@@caffeinatedtailor Hello. Can you elaborate on your favorite interlining materials for the different parts of a dress shirt?
@@testnametestsurname1032 I use the same canvas for each part of my shirt here. I wouldn't say I have a favourite, the one linked in the description is just the only one I found.
Also you'll mostly find people using fusible interfacing rather than a shirt canvas which I have no idea about either.
I guess this doesn't really help at all..
