Thanks for the pattern review showing not only current patterns but older patterns as well. You are such an inspiration. Thank you and God bless you.

OH YAY!!!! I have 2 of these patterns! Had been wondering what pattern you used for your "Happy Dress", because it's just so cheerful. Didn't realize it had a little belt piece on the front and back. Love the trim idea! Your lavender print fabric is BEAUTIFUL!!! Will put a pocket template in with the pattern. Can't wait to make. (In the process of packing for a move. Will have to wait a while to make.) Thanks, Jen! Great pattern review!!! 🥰

Thank you for your review of this dress! It was great. I also love the ease and style of the dress and I too would add side pockets. I wonder if you could alter the belt ever so slightly by adding a casing elastic belt through the front and back attacked belt segments to give the dress a little more definition at the waist but still allow for ease to not use “closures” of any type.

Hello from Manitoba Canada. Your dresses are so pretty. You have me ready to let the pants go for summer. My question is for the Easy Hacks for Project Dress A Girl. I must say the lined bodice is brilliant. I am ready to attach the skirt but unsure how to go about it. Do I attach the skirt to the outside bodice? What about the bodice lining? Did you press up the hem of the bodice lining then hand stitch to the outside bodice to cover the seam?

@TodayinJensSewingRoom
@TodayinJensSewingRoom Год назад
I've looked high and low for a loose fitting princess seamed pattern but can't find one - which is why I haven't made a video talking about this. But here's the gist of it: you can use any pattern that has basic princess seams and fits somewhat loosely. The basic "hack" (or adaptation) is simply to cut the center front bodice at the waistline so you have a separate bodice and skirt. Then double the width of the skirt. Gather it onto the bodice, then there you go. You've got this dress. I wish I could direct you to a specific pattern, but I couldn't find anything loose fitting enough in a woven. It would work with a knit, though, as long as it wouldn't distort out of shape.

They are all so pretty & so feminine looking. I want my next project to be a dress. I haven’t tried a dress yet. I just finished padding out the top part of my mannequin. Boy what a job! Hopefully it will help me with fitting & seeing what looks good on me. I’ve tried several of my tops & they all fit wonderfully on it.

Is there a new pattern that is similar to this dress? So nice to see you on a Tuesday.🥰 I made THE Simplicity pattern and didn’t staystitch the skirt. It doesn’t hang right so….stitch ripper and I have a date. Going to remove the skirt and redo the seams. Fingers crossed it will hang right. It’s a wearable muslin out of quilting cotton.
@TodayinJensSewingRoom
@TodayinJensSewingRoom Год назад
I couldn't find anything similar. But if you have a basic princess seamed top or dress, it's just a matter of separating the center front into a top bodice and a bottom skirt, then double the width of the bottom and gather it into the top. There might be an indie pattern dupe for this but I haven't found it yet.

I like the way you model your clothes. It’s not jumping around and swinging the skirt so much we can’t even see how it lays. You model nice and turn so we can see front and back!

I agree - it is cut big. I made my size (the heart one) and it was too big. Sizing down really helped.

Hi Patti! I never underline, just wear a slip if needed. And I only have half slips in my drawer, so if I need a full one I just make due by adding a cami.
