I've been sewing for over 50 years. My mom taught me when I was very young, then I worked in the factories and from there I began making my own clothes. I had such a passion for sewing and I was quite surprised when I let it go a few years ago. However, your energy and words made me realize how much I miss sewing and now I want to teach others to sew. So I thank you for re-igniting my Love for my talent :)

Don't wash your fabric first, that's why everything is fraying. It is annoying, and also lessens the amount of useable fabric you have.

When we're talking about men's patterns, bear in mind some of us are non-binary and looking to these pieces as the few options for sewing something that isn't femininely styled. So I appreciate hearing about menswear trends you're seeing, because I do love an on trend moment! A toweling camp shirt sounds like fun!

Honestly, I don’t think that Laura Ashley dress is what everybody’s been waiting for from Laura Ashley, however it’s very cute and I like it. Not because it reminds me of Laura Ashley, but because it has the big pocket in front. I love a big patch style pocket. I do think that the print and the long maxi are very different looks and they don’t even look related like they don’t connect in anyone’s brain but I think they’re both very cute for what they are so long as you weren’t expecting the print to be elegant or the white to be homey casual. I think they’re all very individually different even though they have the same basic shape there’s a lot of possibility and one simple pattern. I like that western shirt dress . it would be easy to make it longer and it looks comfortable and not everything needs to be somehow suffer. Sometimes we just need simple things, in fact,most of the time we just need simple things. It could be made with all different different kinds of fabric into all different different kinds of dresses. I like it and I want to make it.

@InsidetheHem 29 дней назад
The waist line is the smallest part of your torso. It is where it is. Now, if you like to wear your waistbands lower, you do you. But, you can see the waists on the models because they curve in.

It’s so weird to me how with some of these (like the first and second) the design lines look nice, but the fabric choices make it look very homemade, like homemade in the early 1980s. Do they have to use a certain brand of wholesale fabric or something?
@InsidetheHem

The jumpsuit looks so heavy and for summer heavy = hot. It's cute, but I'd rather make a waistband and only use the bottom part for a cute pair of flared pants. The one thing I remember about jumpsuits, is when you need to use the restroom, you are practically naked which feels really awkward. Caftans are adorable, but it you're petite and a women's size, it looks frumpy.
@InsidetheHem
@InsidetheHem 29 дней назад
That's true. Caftans are not for everyone if you're concerned about flattery. But, can't argue with the comfort!

M8510 These were all the rage when I was in college in 1974. They were done in fall colors or blacks. You wore Bo ho jewelry and a peasant top or a knit tank. I loved it and wanted one but was broke as a joke They were swirl skirts. Surprised to see all the color blocking. I liked most of this collection. Are peplums making a comeback? I wore the knit version with leggings in the 1980’s and matching pumps
@InsidetheHem
@InsidetheHem 29 дней назад
Yes! Peplums are back! I'm indifferent toward them I think. I'd rather just make a dress.

A couple of the indie companies use clear elastic, not stretched, at the waist on the bodice to support the bodice and stop the stretch lines, so that might work on that knit jumpsuit

Aaaah! Kaftans! I’m living for it- wanted to make one using guipure lace but it’s just so stiff, absolutely no drape. I looked like a statue. Maybe I’ll try cotton eyelet lace. I love the way the fabric is cut and placed in the sample! Also I have no chest so a deep V is always a go for me. 😂

hiya hun humm I don’t mind the little misses jumpsuit & romper but I hate the wide leg trousers that are in fashion now (I wore them in the 70’s 😂 showing my age now 🤣) but I do really love the romper but I’d have to add side seam pockets 😁 can’t do without me pocket’s lol, totally agree with ya about the caftan pockets 😁, I love the Laura Ashley Dress & Top 🥰, I think the Shirt Dress would of been better if it had a belt or just add a belt 😁, & love ❤️ the vintage 1980’s jumpsuit romper dress I remember wearing them in the early 80’s lol 😂 great video thanks for sharing with us xx

No thanks, to unisex patterns and unisex shoe sizes! How often would they be better than a Men's vs Women's fit? I envy men's RTW for the superior fabrics, colors and workmanship compared to women's RTW, but fit is a problem. While some women's bodies adapt OK to the fit of menswear, most would need too many adjustments to make it worth buying the unisex pattern. It's easier to "masculinize" a woman's jacket pattern than to "feminize" the collar size, collar bands, armscye, sleeves, cuffs and hem. Look at the Vogue model: the jacket collar is way too big, as are the shoulders and sleeves. The pant crotch wasn't designed for female anatomy, and the bulge just gets worse with rounder bellies. Remind me, what's the point of sewing a custom outfit again?

Yes, DVF used to make wrap dresses out of 100% silk jersey. It was wonderful, densely knit material. Oh: I see they still do silk, but the prices have more than doubled since I last saw them at a department store.
