I am so pleased I found your channel. This video really shows how perfect you are for someone like me who is just beginning, but wants to work towards producing pieces of a professional standard. Some channels are professional, but are impossible to follow unless you are also professional. This can be disconcerting because they don't admit this, but any attempt to actually do any of their projects can end in a tangle of threads and tears! Then there are those who continually say how easy things are or they take shortcuts that will make the garment look cheap. This is a folly of our age. People want quick and easy rather than accept the truth that producing something of quality takes hard work and application. Thank you for your video. I am so glad I subscribed to your channel.

I've been going through your catalogue of videos and Oh Dear do I wish I had seen this 2 months ago. I've exclusively been making things that did NOT include sleeves since, because I was so frustrated by a pattern with non gathered sleeves. Honestly thought it was my lack of experience with patterns as I grew up drafting things myself and have only recently (by recently I mean 6 months) started using patterns. And knowing you have an "energy issue" just like me really gives me the confidence that I can actually do it.

This video was exactly what I was looking for. I cannot tell you how many times I've had to trash sewing projects due to not knowing how to attach sleeves correctly. Most of the sewing tutorials I've found on YT are practically useless as they almost always fail to provide true step by step instructions, which are necessary for beginners. In fact, I just left a video where the guy was already in the middle of the sewing process at the start of the video! Not only that, but he had positioned his camera in such a way that you couldn't even see what he was doing due to his sewing machine obstructing the view. This vdeo on the other hand provided a much more thorough explanation of the process, so after commenting I will be sure to leave a like as well as subscribe. Thanks for the tutorial!

@@RetroClaude This was a very fiddly technique indeed, but I have to say that it worked very well. I had a hard time at the shoulder area because the pattern marking indicated made for a larger seam allowance in that particular area, which didn't make sense to me. (Later on I discovered that some markings in punched patterns would be off if they happened to be at the bottom of the stack for the punching machine. Or maybe they added more fullness to the sleevehead in 40s patterns in order to accommodate the shoulder pads?) So I did have to unpick my stitches at the sleevehead and use steam to get rid of puckers. I did not make any shoulder pads for the shirt, because I already have wide shoulders. Anyway, I've been meaning to give you my feedback. Thank you for uploading this video.

I don't know if it's because I watched it at 0.75 speed but this was incredibly relaxing to watch. And so satisfying too! I've been sewing them the wrong way forever because I didn't know the excess in the sleeve was there for something, but ever since I decided to stop winging everything (after 4 years of doing so) and learn professional neat techniques, a whole other world has opened its doors to me and it's so soothing to watch videos from creators who take their time and are interested in perfectioning their method and making every detail of their sewing process count! Your video made me want to go try this for myself but I have no project in the making haha I should fix that and make it my next goal :-) My only "??" is the gathering part, doesn't it show a little on the finished dress ? I would be afraid of doing all of this and ending up with a small gather on the top of my sleeve! I'm not sure I got that part. Anyway I'm saving this and will be using it next time I sew sleeves :-)
@RetroClaude

The gathers shouldn't show on the finished dress but might show on the seam allowance on the inside. Because of the curve of the shoulder you need the seam allowance to be a little smaller than the area that you are actually sewing. I hope that helps! Thanks for your lovely comment ☺️💚

Interesting. I learned to set in sleeves by doing a gathering stitch just to the left and right of the stitching line. Eases the fabric in perfectly and the gathering stitches can still easily be removed afterwards. I never tried to just pin out ease. I'm impressed, it works so well - something to keep in mind for delicate fabrics, where you may not want gathering stitches on the visible part of the garment. Did you loosen the upper tension for the gathering stitches,btw? You didn't explicitly mention it, but if you didn't...it doesn't just make gathering the fabric easier, but also the removal afterwards. You can basically just tug on the upper thread and slide it out...hardly any snipping necessary.

The ease stitching shrinks down the edge of the fabric to be the same size as the line you are sewing. The very edge of the sleeve seam allowance is longer than the sewing line and shrinking it a bit helps to ease everything in smoothly. I hope that helps 💚

Hello! I must confess I have never sewn with leather so I'm not the best person to ask. But my instincts tell me that gathering is a no go because it'll leave holes in the leather and all that pinning is also out of the question. I don't know how much leather can ease in either. There is a technique used in traditional shirt making where you put the sleeves in before doing up the side seam or sleeve seam. I've only done it with jersey but it might work out better with such bulky materials 😊

Hello! The first pin is just a holding pin to make sure you are lining the sewing lines up exactly. This pin needs to be at right angles to the fabric at all times otherwise the two layers of fabric will slide about. So as it isn't securing the fabric you need to grip this pin firmly to keep everything nicely lined up AND THEN put the second pin in. As you've got that first pin anchoring the two layers of fabric together they won't slide about as you push the second pin through. You can then remove the first pin now that section of the seam is secure. I hope that helps!

Oh no, no, no. Stitch the two lines of long running stitches between the notches, one just inside the seam line, the other just outside the seam line. Then pin the sleeve in the armseye and use gathering stitches to pull in ease. Stitch between the flat surface of the fabric that lies between the gathering stitch lines. Pull out long gathering stitches and set the seam stitches by pressing. Your sleeve will be set in perfectly. No muss, no fuss.
