I'M BACK !!!
I know ...I know Its been a minute... well between recording tutorials
for the Build Your Wardrobe Series and fighting two bouts of bronchitis
... Im back and well !!
So
where did we leave off ?!... I know most of you finished off the series
on Instagram with me and I LOVED seeing all of your creations that you
shared with me !!
Week Three was the Blazer Our lead blogger for that week was Erica Bunker
I
was so pleased when Erica agreed to be a part of the series .. I knew
that her vast knowledge of tailoring and her class and sophistication
would be perfect for this series !!

I began the blazer but quickly realized that it would take longer than
one tutorial to cover this garment so today I will be showing you Part
One ... it really takes time to get everything right!! That is why I feel
that tailoring is NOT for everyone .. it definitely takes patience!
Here is the Pattern I used M6172 :
I
will say that the instructions are VERY DETAILED ! They really get into
beginner details of tailoring and they give you these things called
"Pro Tips" that really help take the blazer to the next level ... I
SUGGEST taking the time to follow some if not all of the tips they give
you .. they really taught me a lot !!
For my welt pockets i used a combination if McCall's instructions and Erica Bunkers. Hers can be found here . Mine came out pretty good. I must say they where what I was dreading the most !
Overall the pattern is really easy to read , I really liked it !
Here is Part One of The Blazer Tutorial:
I hope you enjoy !! I am working on Part Two Now !!
Thanks again to Erica Bunker ! Our Lead Blogger for the week !!
