Dialogue: 0,0:00:11.58,0:00:12.44,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Hi everyone!
Dialogue: 0,0:00:12.44,0:00:15.90,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So, today on my channel I’m starting a new\Nseries and its going to be called...
Dialogue: 0,0:00:18.52,0:00:22.08,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So, I do a lot of sewing and creating things\Nthat I don’t actually film and put on my
Dialogue: 0,0:00:22.09,0:00:25.85,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,YouTube channel - either because I’m\Nmaking alterations or I’m trying something
Dialogue: 0,0:00:25.85,0:00:30.05,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,new or I’m making something which requires\Na lot of specialized equipment like an overlocker.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:30.05,0:00:34.55,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But, I thought that it might actually be fun\Nto start filming some of this sewing I do.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:34.55,0:00:38.08,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Because while you might have all the equipment\Nnecessary or some of the things I do might
Dialogue: 0,0:00:38.08,0:00:40.97,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,not that simple,\Nyou might be able to pick up some tips or
Dialogue: 0,0:00:40.97,0:00:44.33,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,tricks or things that you might want to purchase\Nin the future.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:44.33,0:00:48.09,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So, without further ado...\NThis is the thing that I made today.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:48.09,0:00:52.25,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And I want you to all join me as I make it!\NSo I started out with this old crop top whose
Dialogue: 0,0:00:52.25,0:00:55.05,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,pattern I wanted to copy because I like the\Nfit of it.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:55.05,0:00:59.19,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And some pink stretchy fabric.\NI then folded the crop top exactly in half
Dialogue: 0,0:00:59.19,0:01:03.58,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and I placed it on the fabric’s fold.\NThen using a washable fabric marker, I traced
Dialogue: 0,0:01:03.58,0:01:07.12,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,around this half of the top.\NAdding a small seam allowance of half an inch
Dialogue: 0,0:01:07.12,0:01:10.16,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,all around the way around.\NSo, I didn’t trace out the sleeves here.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:10.16,0:01:13.97,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,This is because I’m going to trace where\Nthe shoulder seam is instead.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:13.97,0:01:16.97,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,To do this, I’m going to be using a curved\Nruler.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:17.02,0:01:19.80,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now, the curve of the ruler matches the shoulder\Nseam perfectly.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:19.80,0:01:24.37,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So I used it to trace out the shoulder.\NIts kind of hard to see the pen here,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:24.37,0:01:28.41,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,so, with the help of some computer graphics,\Nthis is what I just drew onto my fabric.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:29.70,0:01:33.22,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Then, I just cut it out!\NAnd then I used the same piece to trace and
Dialogue: 0,0:01:33.22,0:01:37.48,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,cut another shirt piece so that I ended up\Nwith two identical pieces.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:37.48,0:01:41.15,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,One will make the front of the T-shirt and\Nthe other will be the back.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:41.15,0:01:45.65,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Next up is making the pattern for the sleeves!\NI place the sleeve onto the fabric fold, with
Dialogue: 0,0:01:45.65,0:01:47.70,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the stretch going in the opposite direction\Nthis time.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:47.70,0:01:52.69,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I traced all around the sleeve leaving about\Nhalf an inch of the seam allowance again.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:52.69,0:01:57.89,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And then, I used a curved ruler again to trace\Nout that shoulder seam.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:57.89,0:02:04.89,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So then, I cut this out.\NUsed it as a template for another sleeve piece.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:05.25,0:02:09.76,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Then I unfolded both of them and...\NHere are my two sleeve pieces.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:09.76,0:02:14.94,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Then, just to make my garment look all *professional*\NI overlocked the edges of the sleeves and
Dialogue: 0,0:02:15.78,0:02:20.15,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the front and the back of the top like this.\NOverlockers are amazing!
Dialogue: 0,0:02:20.15,0:02:23.48,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But if you don’t have one, this is not a\Nnecessary step. It's just a step to make things look nice.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:25.64,0:02:29.08,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Then I placed the these two top pieces together.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:29.09,0:02:33.93,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So, I started sewing them together using a\Nzigzag stitch and...
Dialogue: 0,0:02:33.93,0:02:39.50,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Wait! Why am I doing this when I have an overlocker?!\NSo, I used the overlocker to serge the two pieces together instead.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:42.98,0:02:44.78,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now, this clip hasn’t been sped up at all!
Dialogue: 0,0:02:44.78,0:02:48.46,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,This is literally how fast it is when using\Nan overlocker.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:48.48,0:02:50.90,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,~OVERLOCKERS!~
Dialogue: 0,0:02:50.90,0:02:52.90,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Seriously though, I love my overlocker.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:52.90,0:02:59.90,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,[music playing]
Dialogue: 0,0:03:02.22,0:03:04.86,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I then tried on the top for size and I have
Dialogue: 0,0:03:04.88,0:03:09.97,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to say its looking pretty sexy at this point!\NSo, the next step was to hem both the neckline
Dialogue: 0,0:03:09.97,0:03:13.49,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and the bottom of the top.\NNow, if you remember from before, these were
Dialogue: 0,0:03:13.49,0:03:17.79,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the raw edges that I overlocked.\NTo both the neckline and the bottom edges
Dialogue: 0,0:03:17.79,0:03:21.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,of the top, I folded these edges up inside\Nthe top about half and inch.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:21.72,0:03:26.24,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Then I sewed over the top of them using a\Nzigzag stitch with a piece of paper underneath
Dialogue: 0,0:03:26.24,0:03:30.27,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to prevent ruffling.\NI ripped the paper off when it was done and
Dialogue: 0,0:03:30.27,0:03:37.21,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,this is what the hem looks like!
Dialogue: 0,0:03:37.21,0:03:41.26,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Then it was time to sew on the sleeves!\NSo, I matched up the sleeve and the top’s
Dialogue: 0,0:03:41.26,0:03:44.46,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,shoulder seams - right sides together, just\Nlike this.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:44.46,0:03:50.48,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And I pinned the sleeve all around the arm\Nhole.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:58.02,0:04:00.34,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Then I sewed the two together carefully using
Dialogue: 0,0:04:00.34,0:04:02.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,a zigzag stitch.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:06.94,0:04:10.88,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And, this is what it looks like!
Dialogue: 0,0:04:14.54,0:04:19.24,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I repeated this for the other sleeve and that’s\Nthe top finished!
Dialogue: 0,0:04:19.24,0:04:24.87,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now, this is the first stretchy T-shirt that\NI’ve ever successfully made!
Dialogue: 0,0:04:24.87,0:04:27.49,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And I have to say that I’m pretty please\Nwith how it's turned out.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:27.49,0:04:29.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I did have a bit of ruffling going on at the\Nhem,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:29.99,0:04:33.69,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and I think that fiddling around with my overlocker\Nsettings or getting a walking foot for my
Dialogue: 0,0:04:33.69,0:04:37.27,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,machine would help me to make better T-shirts\Nin the future.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:37.27,0:04:41.17,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So, I would love to hear your feedback about\Nthis potential new series!
Dialogue: 0,0:04:41.17,0:04:43.54,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And don’t worry, Make Thrift Buy isn’t\Ngoing anywhere!
Dialogue: 0,0:04:43.54,0:04:46.83,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Its still my favourite series to make!\NAnd I also want to make this a space where
Dialogue: 0,0:04:46.83,0:04:51.55,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,you can share tips and tricks of your own\Nwith me if you have a better method for doing
Dialogue: 0,0:04:51.55,0:04:53.71,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,something, then let me know.\NAnd yeah, that’s it!
Dialogue: 0,0:04:53.71,0:04:55.32,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I’ll see you all in the next video!\NBye!
