Bagging Out the Back (Free Online Class)

If you have been following along with our free online classes that The HTA hosts on the last Friday of the month, we're piloting a different way of delivering the class by uploading a lesson of the video instead. Let us know which way you prefer in the comments section below, on our subreddit - https://www.reddit.com/r/TheHTA/, or on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/handcrafttailoracademy/ Rather than repackaging and repeating the same techniques long associated with handcraft tailoring, Rory takes a different approach. Drawing on his background in production tailoring, he demonstrates a method not shown in any of his previous videos. Taking inspiration from his former master, Eugene Foley, Rory shows how the lining side seams and hem can be machine sewn to achieve a flawless finish while saving valuable time in the garment-making process. Once the side seams are joined, Rory turns the coat inside out and machine sews the lining side seams. He then focuses on the hem, carefully trimming back the lining so that, when sewn, the pleat is preserved and falls effortlessly across the hem of the coat.
