How to sew authentic double welts | Guide to a Bespoke Suit

This is an indepth guide to sewing double welts. It is to act as a foundation for my previous and updated series involving sampling bespoke tailoring methods of sewing pockets and other parts of handmade garments before the actual garments. Written and illustrated PDF guide: https://Tailorsperks.co.uk/introduction-to-bespoke-tailoring/ If this is the first of my guides you’re seeing I am a training tailor making guides to as many parts of bespoke tailoring as I can for you to learn as well. I suggest referencing earlier content to better frame what I might do differently. There are fewer bespoke resources and it’s a different process to production garment making.
