This video shows you how to create a little flap of fabric that covers your button opening and hides the buttons and buttonholes. Not only does this sewing technique look super professional, it also happens to hide wonky buttonholes and mistakes! Cause we all make 'em. I hope you love it!

Thank you so much for this tutorial. I've been having trouble understanding how to make this, and you managed to explain it so simply and clearly. Also a BIG thanks for the captions. I have a language processing disorder and being able to read what you were saying let me focus on the instructions and not working out what words you spoke.

BRILLIANT! I've been making the SOI Kate and the SOI Dana and ignoring the concealed button placket step (just making it exposed instead) because their pictures and worded instructions are so so so unclear. But this is extremely helpful! Thank you!

Hello I love the video and was curious as to how you would add a collar to this after finishing the placket

@BonnieWiscombe 5 жыл бұрын

Good question! That would be a little trickier. You’d actually have to add a collar stand (strip of fabric between shirt and collar to help it stand up) as well as a collar. I recommend looking at/using a shirt or dress pattern that already has a collar and copying those instructions.

This is so valuable! Thank you. What is the finished placket width?

@bunnanah 2 ай бұрын

I just did this in a scrap fabric and I'm glad i did. The front and back pieces were misaligned by about a half an inch. I will try again with a wider slit. 1/2" on either side of the center line.

heyy what is the width and length of the finished placket? it looks amazing and the tutorial was so clear thank you!

@BonnieWiscombe 4 жыл бұрын

Hey you’re welcome! It ends up being about 1 3/4” wide and 9” long. Good luck!

@marisotoserna 4 жыл бұрын

Great tutorial would there be any other way of finishing the botton of the plackets i dont like the x in the front i know u used contrasting thread for the tutorial but i just dont like it

@BonnieWiscombe 4 жыл бұрын

You don’t need to sew the X. It just adds some stability, you would need to sew the square though in order to secure it closed at the bottom.

Can i use this method for button down shirt gown? If yes? Pls explain how to me.

@BonnieWiscombe Жыл бұрын

Yes for sure- it’s actually easier! You’ll just add the placket cover to the entire length of the gown, instead of ending it halfway down the dress like I did.
