It's so much fun watching you showcase your makes. I love seeing how prolific you are with your garment sewing, Rebecca. Thank you for taking the time to do these videos and sharing your work. It's inspiring and very much appreciated.
Love all your self made clothes. The pj set you could use the shirt for a blouse. You are an elegant sewer. Love the top you are wearing with the periwinkle pants. Love the color and the print on the side. They all look beautiful on you.
I love to see basics in beautiful quality fabrics! I could totally wear those black pants so much (minus the drawstring 😂 I get annoyed by drawstrings) Your self drafted tank is spot on. Very inspiring as always.
I have just found your videos, such beautiful makes and love the attention to detail for finishing. I think a beautiful cream shirt (in the pj top pattern) would look lovely with the black trousers and the blue ones your wearing ❤
Thanks so much Sarah! So glad you found the channel! Great suggestion- I'm thinking about making that top and the skirt in a nice neutral tone- and I do have some lovely cream fabric in my stash.
Morning Rebecca, just love all your outfits. The attention you give to detail and your sewing skills are phenomenal. I particularly love the periwinkle blue pants you are wearing. Thank you again for sharing with us and the time and love you infuse each vlog with.❤ I look forward and appreciate each vlog you publish. Once again thank you so much❤ A quick question - for woven garments do you use a 3 or 4 thread serger? Another question - with Vogue 1437 did you need to modify your periwinkle pants? Also wondering why you needed a size 16?
Thanks so much Francesca! Always happy to answer any questions! I usually use a 4 thread serger stitch- unless I'm doing a narrow hem. My silk skirt has a 3 thread narrow hem finish. The periwinkle pants had the zipper moved to the back (the pattern has a fly front closure). I did no other modifications. That pattern is from 1994 and the 16 felt true to size for me B 38, W 30, H 40. I'm currently 36, 29, 41. I find most Vogue patterns today have too much ease built in so I usually cut a 12-14. Older patterns I always stick to the measurements. I find the true vintage patterns fit my shape best so I rarely need to do any alterations. Hope you're having a great weekend!
