 Hello everyone, so as you can tell I moved back into my studio quite messily if I'm being honest I just like brought everything threw it on that couch still need to organize where it goes over here But basically today, I wanted to make a two-piece. So yes, I'm ignoring the mess and I'm gonna make more But I sketched out this cool little like vest idea I had and like a pant combo earlier this morning and I wanted to give a shot give it a shot and making it So I've also already traced out the pattern pieces I can show you guys and honestly pattern making is like one of my favorite parts of sewing just because you get to kind of create something from nothing which is crazy, but we have The front piece where the pocket is gonna go the actual pocket pattern. I'm doing these cool flaps They kind of look like bees. I guess upside down bees They're kind of like bees, which I think would be really cool on the actual jacket pocket So I have the front with the pocket and then also the back I'm gonna give it a yoke this time because the last time I made a jacket the back stood up a little bit too much because it was so short So I'm gonna see if a yoke solves that problem. I'm using this awesome and this kind of like my little sketch I can't draw to save my life by the way, but whatever. I don't have to sketch to know how to make Anyway, I'm using this really cool like zebra print fabric that I drifted a while ago. It's heavier It feels more like a like a heavier linen. I don't know if it's actually linen But it is a heavier weight fabric, which I think will give the vest a lot of structure Which I'm really excited about the only issues I'm looking out for our fit Just because I use the measurements from a bigger vest that I had on and so that might be a little off But we'll just take it as we go, but let's get started So I started out by cutting everything out. We have our front pieces pockets Both the back yokes and before I cut out a lining I went and sewed the back yoke and the back together and then cut out the lining This is everything pinned down ready to stitch I left the sides open so that way I could flip it inside out as you see here The next thing I did was top stitch everything so it stay in place before I attached it I also put on the pockets and I actually should have put the pockets on first before I attached the lining So that way you wouldn't see the stitching in the back. It's okay. You live and you learn Now right sides facing I'm attaching the front to the back at the shoulder seam and the side seam I actually use French seams for this which is really cool So I just finished the vest Super excited about it. It's lined on the inside with just this random lime green that I found That's the back of the yoke Super excited on starting to cut out the pants now Next I used the pants pattern that I already owned to cut out some things I had three pockets because I wanted an extra one on the front plus the waistband I went ahead and sewed all the pockets together so that way they'd be easier to attach to the pant Also went ahead and marked my darts in the front and back pieces and sewed those down as well Once those were sold I went ahead and added the back pocket to the back pieces Once that was sewed down I also went and started to work on my front you guys know whenever I work on a zipper on camera It always does me dirty so I went ahead and did this off-camera and it was pretty simple So I'm happy that that went well Hey guys, so it's been a couple of days I have some other stuff to do because I'm making something for someone for the first time well someone who's not related to me So that's really exciting But I wanted to show you guys where I left off on the pants So I mean I got super far the last thing you do is attach the waistband because the pants are done I even got my little extra little cargo pocket here The back pockets here, which look really nice So the waistband is on but as I was putting the waistband on I normally use zippers that are longer than The actual zipper fly and I unzipped the zipper from the top So it like came all the way off so I was struggling a lot to try to put it back on and it wasn't working I'll try again today, but if not, I might just have to take the zipper out Either do it again, or I'm thinking I could Unstitch both sides of the flap and make this like a button fly and like add button holes here And then add buttons on this side. So I mean we'll see what I do for right now. I have to clean Oh, well, that doesn't look that messy But I just need to organize all of this because it's a little too crazy and I can't continue with this until I feel like my Space is clean So that's what I'm about to do and also for you guys who watched multiple of my videos If you remember the video where I made that two piece for my sister. I actually got to shoot it for her graduation So I'll just insert those clips here because it really doesn't like surprise as its own video But I also made a dress as well so you get to see the two piece and the dress. Hey vlog But we're shooting my sister's graduation photos today and you guys are gonna see that okay You guys are gonna see the outfit reveal from the part one video All right guys you ready for the big reveal of the outfit. Oh Just gonna here we go Very cute. I mean if you follow me on Instagram you start already now turn to the back because that's the best part We got the cute little buttons Hold up. Can I see that is it in focus there? We go got a little button snaps and then even on the bottom Yeah, sorry you're on the bottom. We got a little buttons Very cute. I mean tell me how I did down below. Let me know now. It's time for Off it you didn't even see me draft the dress I actually struggled a lot with this dress because the fabric was one that I was not intending to work with But you ready Here they shut up her neck or something. This is the dress the super cute has a little slit in it I'm gonna give us a little up close There's a little let's fix this and look a little wobbly on the side. That's better It's a navy blue even if you guys can't tell I know you can turn around to the back I got a little draw to take blue zipper on there. I Killed button color day. Oh She said help me Yeah, she was so I've gone ahead and undone my zipper Some left with like my little zipper flap and then also this part and had to unstitch this The cool thing about this is that like your pants kind of start off like this before you even add your zipper So if you don't have zippers or are Intimidated by zippers you can put buttons here instead. So like my dilemma right now is deciding whether I want The buttons to show on the outside or you could open this up all the way and put the button holes on the inside So when it's flipped around like this and then sewed back down When the buttons are sold here, you can just attach them Like that and then you won't be able to see them But I kind of like the idea of the button showing so I ended up going with the buttons showing on the outside I thought it looked really cool So I went ahead and measured an equal distance apart for me It was three inches and then I sewed in those buttonholes using the buttonhole like machine or function on my sewing machine Always give me anxiety because I'm like oh my god What if I mess it up halfway through because that definitely has happened before but I got it done The next I went ahead and sewed the buttons to the little button placket on there I wasn't originally intended to be that but I'm glad that it worked out. That's the finished product Super happy with the way it went And last time I was gonna attach the waistband to the pants and him the bottom and then I'm all done and just like that I'm finished The button for I actually didn't turn out as bad as I thought it was going to be so that's good and it matters Well with the vest Had to move my mirror over to the light so you guys could see it And also, I don't know where I'm gonna wear this too, but I just really wanted to make it So I'll do it. I love the little pockets. I'm so cute This little new addition and then the back pockets look like That Yeah Actually really enjoyed this is so much print in its entirety But yeah, I'm actually super happy with this and the way it turned out So yeah, I hope you guys enjoyed this week's video If you did make sure you hit the like button down below You can subscribe for more fashion content if you want to and I'll see you guys in the next one See you guys later
