I’m an advanced beginner to sewing and have watched probably a hundred or more video tutorials. Your methods and explanations are by far the best. Thank you for the work you put into these videos. It’s helping so much!

I really struggle with jersey neckbands but I am determined to conquer them Thanks for the very useful video! Edited to add: I tried this and did a PERFECT neckband!!! I'm so happy!

Brilliant tutorial delivered in a lovely Scots accent 🙂. Thank you

Fabulous. It always confused me aboout quartering, not realising that you dont use the shoulder seam. My necks always worked out well because I just used my common sense realising that the front scoop is longer. But your instructions were brilliant. I love your Scottish accent too. Thank you. You are never too old to learn I am 75 and been sewing since I was 12.

This has been a huge help to me. After managing to make my wife a T-Shirt I bought a pattern to make myself a sweatshirt. The instructions for the neckband (along with fuzzy photos) left me very confused but this video made everything clear. I realised after watching the video that I bought the material for the T-shirt from your shop so thanks again for helping me advance my sewing ambitions.

Thank you very much for this video. You explain very well and very clearly what you are doing and why. You also provide easy to see demonstration. I also liked you showing different alternatives to sewing the neckband and it was very good to show how you use a double needle on your machine.I am looking forward to watching more tutorials from you. Well done and many many thanks.

This is very helpful for me as I begin summer t-shirt sewing! And learn about sewing stretchy t-shirt fabrics. Thanks!😊

The bobbin hack for the twin needle is brilliant!! YT is great for beginners!!! Awesome tutorial

Great video. Just what I've been looking for. Have been sewing for over 60 years and have not worked with knits, but I will now. Time to fill my closet with lots and lots of custom T-shirts. Thanks again. Happy sewing everyone.

I could listen to you speak for hours! thank you for the very useful tips!

This video makes me feel more confident about sewing becomes.. Thanks

Thank you for this Lauren. I used to sew a lot...decades have passed and I've taken it up again but I'm finding a lot has changed. New products, different types of fabrics and techniques...I'm not as confident as I once was. I was dreading doing the neckband on a knit top that was coming out really good as I didn't want to mess it up in the home stretch. Your tutorial helped me out immensely - it made a lot more sense than the instructions!

Just done my first successful neck band after watching your tutorial, can’t thank you enough.

GREAT VIDEO - sewing knits suck and your direction actually makes it feel more attemptable and one might actually succeed - Bravo and Thanks!!!

I love the way you teach. I've been sewing for a long time and I still don't know a lot of stitches and how to finish off garments with a clean look. Watching this video has helped me so much. I can't wait to make my own shirts.

This is the clearest and easiest to understand of neck binding tutorials I've come across. I think I finally get it, thankyou!

So glad I found your video. I love working with jersey fabric but get frustrated when working on necklines. This makes perfect sense and answers so many questions.

OMG Lauren you have saved my sanity! I am relatively new at dressmaking, although I have been a sewing machinist for over 30 years in soft furnishing. I thought I would try making a dress in ponti Roma fabric (which is a first for me). But I became totally unstuck when trying to add the neck binding, even though there was a step by step phamplet instructions! I started at 8am yesterday unpicking the binding, sewing back on again, only to find it still didn’t lay flat, then I thought blow this I have enough fabric left to start again. But then I messed the neck binding again and noticed a click in front of the bodice! I never stopped all day 🤪trying to get it right, (part from meals)! So at midnight I went to bed with a heavy heart.

Lauren thank you for ALL your tips on sewing the neckline on jersey fabrics. Great tips and information on the different types of interfacing brilliant.

I never knew that a twin needle stitch will do a zigzag on the underside. Now I will use this technique more!
