Hello, it's Susan here from Koumori
No Hime Cosplay and welcome back to the 20 Years of Anime Project, in which we countdown to the year 2020 using costumes. Today
we're going to be going back to 2007 and making Hinata's jacket from Naruto Shippuden.
To make Hinata's jacket
I'm going to be using McCall's M6614 and we're going to be using view D
because it has the zipper up the front, though I am NOT going to be sewing the pockets.
And for the fabric,
I'm using purple and white stretch knit fabric that I got from my local Joann's. Cut the sleeve pieces out of white fabric and
sew the dart in the
top of the sleeve
following the guidelines marked on the pattern.
Cut the front and back jacket pieces out of the purple fabric and we're going to sew them to the sleeve pieces along
the
shoulder seams
all along
the jacket. So essentially we just have a
large cape-like garment right now. Putting right sides together, we're going to sew
along the
bottom of the sleeve,
around the underside of the arm, and
back down
the base of the jacket
so that it becomes a jacket instead of a cape.
Cut the jacket hem piece out of the purple fabric
I cut mine to be a little bit shorter and
a little bit longer than the pattern piece because I didn't want it to tug at
the jacket and I also didn't want the jacket to be too long.
So that's the reason behind that. Fold it in half and now we're going to sew it along the bottom of the jacket.
Then we're going to insert a zipper into the front of the jacket. The separating zipper that I found
was a little bit too short,
so as you can see
there's a gap there, and I'm going to just trim away the
material here so that it slopes down. That'll work for Hinata because she wears her jacket partially open anyways, though
this does mean that for the hood pieces
I'm going to have to make them a little bit longer to accommodate for the fabric that I'm going to be cutting away here.
Cut the hood pieces out of the white fabric,
pair them up, and sew them together
along the curved side.
Putting right sides together,
sew the two hood halves together along
the opening. Turn the hood right side out and sew it onto the jacket. To finish up the jacket,
we're going to add the purple cuffs to the ends of the sleeves.
I trimmed away some of the sleeve because it was a little bit too long on me
and this is what I'm going to be using to create a pattern for the purple cuff,
since the cuff pattern that was included with this pattern
has the sleeves gathered at the end and Hinata's sleeves are very open and flowy. So I'm going to cut
the cuff out of the purple fabric, fold it in half,
and sew it together
along the side. Turn the cuff right-side out and,
putting right sides together, we're going to sew it to the bottom of the sleeve
so that when it is unfolded
it forms a nicely finished cuff. To finish off the look
I paired it with a stretchy fishnet top. It seems kind of cheaply made but it should work for this project.
And I also got a ninja headband off of Amazon.
I'll have an affiliate link if you want to check out and see exactly which one I got. I just tied that
around the neck. And with that, Hinata's jacket is done! For more cosplay tutorial videos,
