Making the Chanel Jacket #1 - Trim Making and Shaping, Front Stabilization and Dual Buttonholes!
Thank you for watching this video! I am using the book COUTURE SEWING, The Couture Cardigan Jacket, Secrets from a Chanel collector by Claire Shaeffer and I highly recommend that if you want to create this jacket you purchase the book. I am also using the Vogue 8804 pattern, which is also by Claire Shaeffer. I have modified the pattern to fit my needs as far as length and fitting issues. As I strive to follow Claire’s guidance in spirit, I do go on my own as far as technique.

Welcome to the first episode of Making the Chanel Jacket. This is going to be fun! In this video I will explain my overall process, my trim choice, how to make it and shape it to fit the jacket, 101 ways that you need to stabilize the center front piece before you can even get started on buttonholes. And finally, step by step through the process of making the dual buttonholes which are hand embroidered/knotted on the outside and bound on the inside/lining side. Whew~ And we are just getting started!
Thank you SO MUCH for watching!
