I Made A Sheer Linen Camisole (because lining is for punks)

Either I didn't realize this linen was so sheer, or I just lack the foresight to double my layers to put in a lining. Either way, I made myself a plus-sized camisole to fit under an upcoming project! The pattern is the Classic Camisole Top and Dress by Ellie & Mac, with a little pattern hacking to attempt a better fit.

The tank top turned out beautifully and the kitten content was definitely a needed mood booster on this monday morning!

@MaireColclough 5 месяцев назад

I'm glad they're helping your case of the Mondays!

@eh1702 5 месяцев назад

Naughty and nice! As for fit, the cat (which has grown beautifully) had no doubt about fitting on the lightbox.

@MaireColclough 5 месяцев назад

It's the law of the cat's universe: If she fits, she sits. So she sat. 😁

@Nessi-dances 5 месяцев назад

A very good cami, I hope it helps this summer! Your kittens probably like the wool mat so much because of the lanolin, which smells like a mother cat producing milk. There's a picture, somewhere on the internet, of a cat up to it's elbows in wool on a live sheep in full kitten mode.

@MaireColclough 5 месяцев назад

I figured it was probably the lanolin. I don't think it's going to get a lot of use until I can build it into the ironing section of my eventual cutting table. And then it may get a cotton topper to keep kittens from scratching and chewing it. Either that or I'll use it when the kittens are locked out of the basement 😁

Hey that’s truly cute! I love watching your channel. Your humor and fearlessness of “giving it a try “ makes me motivated to also try stretching my new sewing skills. Thanks for sharing your journey with us. Viewing you from South Mississippi

It's gorgeous! And definitely looks fine under any of your jackets & cardies. A good choice for a warm day at home, then pop a shirt over it if you're going out. Looking for your next pink item! 🩷🩷🩷

@nataliestanchevski4628 5 месяцев назад

It's a lovely camisol and the kittens are hilarious. One of my cats ran into my room and vomited on my rug while I watched this. Thank goodness, he might have gotten splash back if he did it on the tile or hardwood floors in every other room. 🙄 I hope the cami helps keep you cool this summer! P.s. don't look at the sun today!

@MaireColclough 5 месяцев назад

Happy Eclipse Day! Enjoying the sun from indoors while watching someone's live stream of the event. 😁 Sorry to hear about your carpet cleaning issues...been there. Glad this house has 90% hardwood/tile... 😶

@jacquieskipper4907 5 месяцев назад

Hello from Long Island. Solar eclipses are so stressful even if you're not in the path of totality but kitties have a calming effect

@MaireColclough 5 месяцев назад

@theresaanndiaz3179 5 месяцев назад

I love camisoles, I wear in a temperate climate that has mood swings, foggy mornings burn off to warmer days and back to cooler evenings, so layers are the way to go and camisoles fit into that perfectly.

@MaireColclough 5 месяцев назад

Tank tops are a lifesaver for me every summer. This will get a lot of use 😃

@festivalkyrie 5 месяцев назад

That fabric reminds me of those old, bell-sleeved overdresses, that were really in fashion in the 70s and the 90s. Like making an overdress, and being a flowy figure in dark alleyways :3

Maire it’s gorgeous!! And I’m glad to see your cats like ‘helping’ just as much as mine do - although they have a new rival in a chihuahua who thinks he’s a cat!! And as for the heat? Second month of autumn in Perth, Western Australia and yesterday we hit 36 degrees Celsius - I need me some camisoles!!

@MaireColclough 5 месяцев назад

Sounds like our summers/early autumns are very similar. Definitely camisole weather!

@louisalowry6229 5 месяцев назад

Hot and getting hotter? Our firies have officially extended the bushfire season to the end of April and are keeping the air tankers around. We’ve just had the driest six months in recorded history.

@@louisalowry6229 Yep...that's about it! 🙄

@michellecornum5856 5 месяцев назад

That camisole is very nice. I find it vexing that the larger the pattern size, the more distorted it becomes. Especially around the arms and shoulders. We won't even go into the immediate square it becomes for the body. Human shoulders do not grow at the same rate as what is hanging off of them. If I make something that slides over the apron, I continue to slide right through the neck hole. Sorry, this could become a massive rant. Pink is definitely your color.

@MaireColclough 5 месяцев назад

Mum was right about a few things (like pink, lol)! As I grow more proficient at sewing, I'm finding that the pattern is just the starting point. It's up to me to customize from there. There's a whole video in what I could say about it, I think 😁

@woochles 5 месяцев назад

I hate how pattern grading seems to think the circumference of my neck grows at the same rate as the circumference of my waist as I gain weight. Why the huge neck holes? Also, as you said, shoulders don't actually get wider so bra straps need to stay more centered or they fall down.

@werelemur1138 5 месяцев назад

Your kittens have turned into cats! My furry pattern weight likes to chew on plastic. Usually I cut out the pattern pieces before taping them together, I find it slightly less annoying. I love the pink on you, and the red in the first part of the video is also a great color for you.

@MaireColclough 5 месяцев назад

Kitties! ❤ Also, pretty top! I don't like facings, I feel I'm being strangled by my clothes when the facings keep just doing their own thing. But I'd never thought of catch stitching them to stop it.

@MaireColclough 5 месяцев назад

Just be really careful with the size of your stitches on the outer fabric... ..or cover them with something infinitely more interesting!

@neanahidden 5 месяцев назад

“Well, I never. The audacity of titling their work with “Modesty” only to then proceed in frolicking around in their unmentionables.” The camisole looks very versatile and cute. I’m not a pink person, but it looks very good on you. -well, yes I am pink person but that’s hereditary, not a decision- Btw, feels like you and your mother had a traditional master-apprentice thing going with the crafts :)

@MaireColclough 5 месяцев назад

Yep. We were kinda like Jedi that way. Just with knitting needles instead of fancy laser swords 😁

@SimpleDesertRose 5 месяцев назад

I love that color on you. But I see what you mean by how sheer it is. I couldn't get over the kitties being in your space. I can totally relate to the light box. I had mine out the other day lining up pattern pices and had a cat jump up to park her furry butt on it. 😂😂 I love Ellie and Mac patterns. Lindsey is awesome. She tries very hard to be size inculsive. She made a couple of dresses for my duaghter before she started making patterns. Back when she was just doing little girl clothing. I actually have this cami pattern and printed it out with the intention to make it dor my duaghter to go with the jammy pants I made her for Christmas two years ago. In the end it turned out i had over worked myself sewing 5 pairs and getting everything else ready for Christmas. If I don't have to make a bunch of stuff and do a bunch of last minute cleaning, I may try again. Or maybe i will raid the stash and make one gor myself.😉

@MaireColclough 5 месяцев назад

I definitely recommend the cami! It might be a good breather from your larger projects 😃

@SimpleDesertRose 5 месяцев назад

@@MaireColclough you're telling me! My duaghter is almost 16 now and has been wanting to history bounding to the dances. We did a regency dress from some fabric I pulled from my stash, a full on shelf butt bustle gown and now we are doing a romantic era inspires crinoline gown. The last two we slapped together in a week. This one we have a little more time.we have the majority of the work done just waiting for some hook and eye tape to arrive, becuase I am not sewing that many hooks and eyes in place by hand. I did it once and never again.

@taymc407 5 месяцев назад

My cat also loves wool. Whether it's something I knitted or a wool fabric I'm working with, he goes nuts for it like this too. I wonder if it's the texture or the lanolin smell that wool sometimes has that makes the cats love it so much?

@MaireColclough 5 месяцев назад

According to another commenter, it's the lanolin. 🙂

@ah5721 5 месяцев назад

your struggle with the paper patterns is why I don't buy pdf patterns - that I an have scaling issues and no working printer. it's still a cute cami !

@MaireColclough 5 месяцев назад

I like having the pattern, particularly if it's multi-size, because I can re-make anything I like if I shrink. Not a fan of wasting paper and ink is expensive, so I'm checking out another option that will hopefully be seen on the channel soon 😃

@s.maskell7134 5 месяцев назад
