I have McCalls 5668 but haven't sewn it yet. Nor have I taken it out of the envelope to notice all the great information included. I used to be scared of sewing button-up shirts, but I conquered that. I'm ready to overcome my fear of jean-making. Life's too short to be lived in fear. 😉

Wow, you have a daring taste when it comes to prints. I admire that. I would love to sew that bomber jacket too (in most likely a classic houndstooth print) since these types of jackets are supposedly on trend again. I only have made two shackets before. Anyway, whatever you decide to film about the construction is going to help me when I finally decide to take the plunge to sew the bomber jacket.

Fly front zips are my ultimate fear... but I say that without having actually put one in. Just reading the instructions on them was enough to instill some unreasonable fear inside me and I've done everything possible to avoid them...but I also really love pants and I feel like one day the two will have to meet 😨

I haven’t sewed a fly front zipper either, primarily because I can’t find a pants pattern I like enough for it to be worth the effort 😂

@@SewSewLounge I remember not liking the way the collar was done. Maybe there was something I did not understand. Also the seams and darts seemed bulky and did not want to lay flat enough where it all came together. I used a fine Irish wool that was not thick.

@@nancyshaner8548 I’ve made a similar collar on a dress earlier this year-it can be a little tricky to get everything sewn in the right place so it lies flat. Re: darts, did you press them after sewing? Wool loves to be pressed. I’ll keep your concerns in mind when I see my jacket.

I’m not fearful of sewing anything really but I do tend to not sew more time consuming items such as proper sleeve cuffs with a lap or placket because I’m lazy. I will just replace it with a gathered sleeve with a simple cuff instead 😂😂 On the flip side, I absolutely love sewing jackets! I have made so many and set in sleeves are a cinch for me. Have fun sewing all of your jackets!

I prefer an invisible zipper. Once you get the hang of them they look great, but you can’t use them for everything. As of right now I have mixed feelings on a separating zipper.
