Have you ever tried making clothes multiple times but been frustrated because they didn't turn out neatly?
What if you weren't satisfied with the 'home-made' look that everyone else was looking at?
What if you know the process of making clothes well but feel frustrated because you lack the skills?

45 key points that frequently appear in pattern books
A popular Yangjae instructor will teach you exactly what you need with one-point lessons!
Solve problems that were difficult to find answers to anywhere else.


01.
Learn tips from popular Yangjae instructors at home.

Veteran dressmaking instructor Koda Aoi will help you upgrade your tailoring skills! Having published several books on tailoring, the author says she always wanted to explain the clothing-making process in more detail, but felt she couldn't fully capture it.
Having taught 'clothing' classes for nearly 20 years, I know very well what students struggle with.
That's why I've included the secrets to sewing neatly and beautifully in "Clothing Making Classes That Teach You to the Point."
It is explained step by step so that even beginners can understand it without difficulty, let alone intermediate or advanced users who have made many clothes.
Now you can learn the 'essential know-how of clothing making' at home without having to go to a clothing making class.

02.
Making clothes isn't difficult.
It points out the key points and tells you exactly what to do.

We'll explain 45 key points that clothing making teachers were curious about.
If you look at a clothing making book, you will see a variety of pockets.
But that explanation is too simple.
This book will teach you how to make various pockets, from patch pockets to seam pockets, side pockets, piping pockets, and box pockets, as well as how to sew pockets, and points to keep in mind.
Not only does the process of making it become much easier to understand, it also gives the impression that it was made with a lot of effort.

The process of sewing the shoulder line and sleeve side seam, which we have been doing without thinking, clearly tells us to sew 'the shoulder line from the end of the shoulder' and 'the sleeve side seam from the shoulder line toward the sleeve cuff.'
If you sew from the shoulder line, the shoulder line and the side seams of the sleeves will not stretch out.
It's easy to get confused about where the shoulder end is and where the shoulder line is, but we'll explain it clearly with illustrations.
Applying these tips will help you create more complete clothes!

When making strings and loops, it shows you how to make them neatly when the width of the string is more than or less than 1 centimeter, and it explains in detail how to make thin loops, strings with one end hidden, and strings with both ends visible.

The collar is considered a relatively difficult process.
There are many types of collars, such as shirt collars and open collars, and there are also various ways to wear them, such as types with support collars, flat collars, and stand collars.
When making a round collar, did you know that if you sew the curved part tightly, it will be easier to round it and finish it neatly? Also, when attaching a collar with a collar, did you know that if you make sure that the outer collar and inner collar seam allowance are misaligned, the collar will look pretty?

It contains key know-how that is difficult to find in general pattern books, so you can apply it effectively in real-life situations.
In addition to this, you can also solve the problems that have always been bothersome, such as attaching zippers, sewing cuffs, sewing the bottom, sewing the top, and adding elastic to the waist.

Mastering the 11 Best Tailoring Techniques, from Pattern Making to Tailoring

In order to make clothes, there are many things you need to know other than sewing, and a preparation process is required.
The thing that you need to pay the most attention to is the pattern.
You must transfer the full-size pattern to the pattern paper to match the size and mark the seam allowance.


In the "Clothing Making Class that Explains in Detail," we will explain in detail how to transfer and correct a full-size clothing pattern.
In particular, it tells you how to draw corners by extending each part, drawing them at a right angle, or drawing them inverted, depending on the situation.
And I even included instructions on how to modify the pattern to fit your size.
Even if you find an item you like among the patterns included in the pattern book or patterns sold on the market, it is not easy to make clothes in the size you want.
The pattern book appendix is ​​based on standard body types, so you need to modify it to fit your actual measurements or season.
This book will teach you how to adjust the length and width, including adjusting the overall length, adjusting the sleeve length, adjusting the pant length, and adjusting the pant width.

And we will select 11 of the most basic Yangjae techniques and explain them in detail with illustrations.
It covers how to pin, how to use sewing machine stitches, how to start and end a stitch, how to sew darts, how to sew a seam, how to make a gather, how to make bias tape, how to attach a hook, etc.


When making pleats, almost all books only explain something like, 'Sew two rows of thick yarn with a large amount of sweat and pull the thread to make the pleats.'
This book explains the secrets and reasons for pulling the bobbin thread, saying, "When pulling, always pull the bobbin thread. The bobbin thread is looser than the upper thread, so it's easier to pull." It's easy to understand.

Also, take a look at the Q&A section, which contains frequently asked questions and questions from students in the clothing making class.
When asked about the difficulty of cutting fabric exactly like the pattern, the solution is to cut without lifting the fabric, cut the corners 0.5 centimeters more, and cut in a cross shape.


If you've made a lot of clothes but felt frustrated because they weren't finished neatly, or if you were worried that they looked like homemade clothes to anyone who saw them, I recommend this book.
Anyone interested in clothing making will find this book very helpful, from beginners looking to improve their skills to intermediate and advanced craftsmen.
