Welt Pocket

Sewing a welt pocket can be a little daunting if you haven't done one before. We have added a tutorial video to support you through all the steps with lots of tips.

Fit adjustments

The Marlowe waistcoat's many seam lines, make small fit adjustments easy. In this tutorial we have included some video clips to demonstrate a range of small tweaks which can be made to perfect the fit. 

Attaching the lining

The side seams are left open to help sew the lining. This short video is a quick guide to each step of the lining attachment.

Buttonholes

The buttonholes of the Marlowe are horizontal which will mean you need to position your buttons slightly off centre in the buttonholes. Check out our buttonhole masterclass video to get perfect placement.
