How To Make The Jacket

The jacket is only one piece with only two seams on the sides. This is a special tutorial for beginners as it is very easy to do. Custom jackets are very easy to accomplish and sew but depends on you.

You will need to:

• Fabric that does not fray to simplify the work and it is not necessary to finish off.
• A jacket that you already have, which will serve as a reference.
• Scissors and your hands or sewing machine.

First, the seams of the forward are opened, and then a ballpoint is given to join the cut where the living pockets will be stitched later.

Re-enter The Front

After this, the re-entry of the forward arrives and we start from the chest seam, dividing the re-entry into two parts: the waist down and the waist up. One thing that can never happen to us under any circumstances is that this clamp that we are talking about always has to have a small curvature forward, it can never have that curvature towards the back, since if so, the safest is that the songs of the strikers end up being flown. Starting from the curvature of this clamp forward we will begin the reentry with the iron to shape the shape.

Interline

Now comes the time for interlining. There are many kinds of interwoven so I use two different models with more or less body depending on the thickness of the fabric.

Once the chest has been stung, it is time to empty the clamp, in this case, it has two empties; the first is one of the same sizes as the emptying of the fabric and another that will come out of the armhole.

Once the two clamps are sewn, it is time to re-enter the interlining. In this step, we will use wood to maintain the shape of the chest, since as we have said before, we must work the anatomical curvature that everyone has from the beginning of our work.

Basting

Once you have finished ironing the striker and the interlining we will proceed to baste the strikers to the interlining of the jacket.

This is one of the points where more varieties exist. Some tailors tend to baste the strikers, from top to bottom, others bask them from the bottom up. I like to baste them starting at the waist, and from there, we continue down, splitting the striker into two parts.

When basting, we must be very careful with the amount of fabric we drag.

Iron and Mount

After this point of the dive comes the time to iron the striker. This we will do in the same way that we have ironed the interlining, helping us with the wood too, finally, give a review of the iron by the right.

The only thing left is to ride the test, this is to join back, front and a sleeve, the right.
