Whitney, what an inspiration you are! I love your plans. I bought the fall capsule from Everyday Style and love the framework it provides. The colors worked for me really well except for the black. I switched it to dark brown. I had several items in my closet already so I’m sewing about half the items. I did spurge and buy a couple of things, the cropped jeans and the graphic T. Thanks so much for the pattern suggestions and the “why” you chose it. I’m just learning how to match what I envision with an existing pattern. I can hardly wait to see your look book. Have a great day!

First, I absolutely love your hair. And that lipstick is so gorgeous that it’s killing me. You always look great, but those two things are just extra good. I’m drooling over the fabrics, particularly the plaids, and your colors are very similar to mine, so it’s especially fun watching. I have one question about what you meant when you were talking about “monochrome” at the top of the video. I’ve heard that term used in various ways by several people recently , and each time it seems to mean different things. My art major background is getting in the way of understanding what is trying to be conveyed in each case. Monochrome literally means “one color.” It doesn’t matter which color, only that it’s all the same, with maybe some differences in lightness or darkness. But, for instance, I’ve heard one vlogger understand it to mean a strictly black & white combination - which is not at all “monochrome.” But, colloquial speech changes all the time, so I just want to understand what you mean by monochrome. OMG, that’s a lot of words. Lolol 🤦🏻‍♀️

When I use monochromatic, I use it in the art/color theory sense meaning one color, but in different tones or lightness or darkness. I've also heard it used as black and white, but I'm using to mean dressing like a paint swatch card!

Really like the Harmony blouse you had on and your hair looked great. Did you get it streaked? The lights were hitting it just right to show off the lighter strands, very pretty. Have a good week!

You’ve probably covered this in another video, but I’d love to know how you preshrink/prewash your fabrics before sewing, especially 100% wool or wool blends, silk, etc. I’ve acquired some beautiful fabrics at estate sales recently, and I’m really hoping not to have to dry clean. Can’t face a return to those days! Thanks.
@TomKatStitchery
@TomKatStitchery 3 года назад
With my coating weight wools, I just steam treat those before sewing by placing them in a dryer with damp towels. I will usually just dryclean those finished garments. However, with other weight wools, I actually hand wash (usually in the machine on the delicate or hand wash cycle) using a wool wash detergent. I then just air dry the yardage. I treat these finished garments the same way. For my silks, I wash those on the delicate cycle using a delicate detergent and then pop them in the dryer. Once they are made up, they get washed the same way, but air dried. If the dried garments feel a bit crispy or are really creased, I'll just pop them into the dryer for about 5 minutes and they soften right up! I do the same for my linen!

I am new to today’s knits. How do you choose your size in a knit pattern, because they have negative ease? Woven fabric I have no problem with, but the knits have come out a little large.
@TomKatStitchery
@TomKatStitchery 3 года назад
With the independent pattern companies, I find that I can go off the size chart and be fine with my sizing. However, the commercial patterns (Vogue, McCalls, Butterick, Simplicity, ect) put so much ease into their patterns, it can be a bit trickier. I usually just chose the size I would choose if I were making a woven garment. For instance, the size chart for McCalls would have me make a size 18, but I know that I prefer the fit of their size 14. Therefore, I make a size 14 in their knit patterns as well. I tend to pick my size based on the finished measurements of the woven patterns, but not the knit ones. I hope this helps!

I am wearing the Laundry Day today. I think the cowl is a bit too drapey. The cowl on the Bella Donna just right.

That's so helpful! I'm excited to make that one up. I can't believe I haven't yet!

I bought some horrible ponte. The one that is mostly polyester. I washed it and it was covered in fuzz balls. I want to get the one that you use, I think it is rayon and nylon and something else. Could you please tell me where you got it? I appreciate it very much, thank you, Karen

Ponte is definitely not all created equal. While I can do a bit of poly in my ponte, I prefer the Rayon, Nylon, Spandex blends the best as they wash and wear like a dream. I have links to all the fabrics I mentioned in the description box just below the video. Right underneath the title of the video you'll see a couple lines of text. If you hit the drop down arrow (or See More depending on where you're watching this), all the links will drop down!

I would see you in a dress with this last fabric. Ouf…..you have a lot of work! 😂

I'm thinking that last fabric might become a dress. I've really been enjoying knit dresses lately!

Hi Whitney!! Is the Lady McElroy Audon Viscose Jersey Stretch Knit Fabric clingy at all? Also, I’ve never made my own jeans but I’m loving the idea of the Mountain View jeans! Would you consider a sew along for those? 🧵😊🧵 Also (LOL), can you share the color codes? Thanks!! 🤗

I can't say for certain about the Lady McElroy viscose jersey, but because viscose, rayon and bamboo jerseys are heavier (and therefore more drapey), they are more clingy than a linen or cotton spandex knit. I can definitely ask Kennis about a Mountain View Jeans sew along. That's a great idea! The color code for 10% off Color Guru is TOMKATCOLOR

@@TomKatStitchery Thank you! I bought some stretch denim from style maker fabrics for the Mountain View jeans! Can I pick your brain about what type of fabric I could use for a muslin?

@@busysewingbee3819 I would use something with stretch. JoAnns usually has some stretch poly blend bottom weight that you could probably get for muslin prices!

Oh, Whitney... Are you sure you want to match plaid on the curvy Sabrina slims? Are you going to be happy in the end with that detailed grid hugging every bump or bulge? Most women our age have to consider figure flaws. Good looking fabric, though. I'd do the straight trousers. Eager to see your make.

Lines and grids can definitely bring the eye to unwanted areas, however, I find that if the grid or stripe is small or busy enough it actually works to camouflage areas. I will definitely be utilizing some tummy control (probably with power mesh) as knit pants can definitely be more clingy!
