You're the reason I started sewing again after I got fat. I didn't think I could do it bc plus size sewing is SUCH a different skill than straight size sewing imo, but now I sew buckets of my own clothes. You're amazing, just thought you should know 💜
You look lovely in your dress❤. I like very much how you explain the process of modifying the toilette for a better fitting. It was very informative for me. Enjoy your dress! Love your channel!
All that trouble fitting shows in the delightful finished result - a lesson for us all! Liked the tip for a crisp iron-on interfacing .. uh .. facing. 🥰
WOW! I love everything about this video. Haven’t seen fitting and pattern adjustment like this before,and I have watched and follow many sewists. I can’t thank you enough for this video! Looks amazing!
Those pics at the end by the trees was beautiful and dress looks perfect on you especially with pockets and by the way I bought the book. That’s how I found your videos
I made the honeybourne dress and like the fit on me. I agree this book is good value. Really like the job you made of your dress and its very flattering on you.
Your dress looks fabulous! I am a novice sewer. I've not been happy with the fit with the things I've made so far (Hinterland dress, Huon dress), so I bought Ahead of the Curve. I'd love to see you make the Kersoe top from it.
Great video. The dress looks lovely on. I love that you explain everything so well, I will definitely be saving this video for when I make this dress myself. I am so glad I came by your channel today! Thank you ❤
A few things... OMG what a cute dress and the ice storm vignette is so gorgeous!!! What's a waist stay and how does that work? Also, appreciation for the color matching box of La Croix under the dishes cabinet 😂. It takes dedication to shop food packaging in a color palette 😝.
Honestly the Limoncello La Croix is my favourite flavor it just works out 😝. A waist stay is sort of an old fashioned technique where you tack in a piece of ribbon at the waist and it has its own seperate hook and eye and you are able to have it take some of the weight of the skirt so it doesnt strain the dress and prevents it from stretching out. Its useful when you have big/long skirts.
I just bought this book so it was great to see your thoughts about it! I am excited to try her method for a narrow shoulder adjustment because I have mixed results with just cutting a bit off the side😆. Your method for finishing the facing by sewing on the interfacing was genius, Can't wait to see more!!!
Probably the roseclair even though it was a lot of work and the turner dress. The first time I made a turner dress I was like, this is what it looks like if something is designed for me. I havent tried out the pants yet, no. I am not a big pants person. Eventually I will make some.
