I think the reason the Style Arc Posie Knit Top works for you is because the seam that the "sleeve" is sewn into moves onto the bodice; so, the gathering of the top of the "sleeve" gives the illusion of widening your shoulders while the seam the sleeve is inserted into moves down, narrowing the look of the bust line. It would be interesting to see this made into a dress. 🧐 I thought it was kind of funny when you were talking about your colors and your dress melted into the yellow dot on the screen. Spot on! (Sorry - had to say it) 😊 Question: How do you keep track or organize your "Summer Sewing List?" Do you just stack up the fabric and patterns to be cut or do you make a To Do list . . . ?

@Cynthia2v 4 месяца назад

Agree, I was thinking a bateau neckline on tees might be a good choice as well, the focus moves to the face.

@TomKatStitchery 4 месяца назад

When I was editing the video, I noticed my dress blending into the dot as well 😂. As far as organizing my sewing. I have a general "to-do" list of things I want to make and then I parcel that out each week. I like to batch cut a few things so they are all ready to sew up when I get time to sit at the machine!

@priscillathomas9215 4 месяца назад

Hi Whitney, this looks like a fun wardrobe with many pops of colour. Your planned projects should compliment your wardrobe beautifully. I have been busy planning my winter wardrobe and am approx half way through my planned projects. It has only just become a bit cooler here and finally we have had some rain - so very happy about that. 🌸

Whitney, yesterday I was looking at your older videos on sewing modules--my pending retirement needs 2 overlapping modules--and WOW have you grown before our eyes.

@dawnjeffersramstad8401 4 месяца назад

Jenny, get Whitney a subtle ear mic where you run the wire under her dress. Newscasters frequently 15:42 tuck the batter pack into their bra. As a preacher, I make my pockets with a hidden slit in the seam opposite the inseam pocket opening, battery pack in my pocket, wire runs under my clothes. It will seriously improve your sound quality. In addition to live Sunday worship,, I produce an on-line worship service for my home bound folks weekly, and this is how my sound tech and videographer mic me. Good luck! But your off camera talent is making Whitney look so great on camera!

@dawnjeffersramstad8401 4 месяца назад

How about a Fall 2024 module challenge?

@TomKatStitchery 4 месяца назад

Thanks for all the comments, Fall 2024 module challenge could be fun!

@millysews5646 4 месяца назад

Love your summer plans. Lots of good inspiration. I am starting a summer plan trying to use fabric from my stash. Also trying to sew a dress for a wedding I am attending next month. Crossing my fingers that works out.

@TomKatStitchery 4 месяца назад

Have fun!

@robinduggins2561 4 месяца назад

I love your wrap, it's lovely. I think it's great that you got to get something hand crafted to add to your own hand crafted wardrobe. I'm in Texas we are already in the low 90's and just looking at that on you made me feel warm and sticky. I actually found a piece of chiffon in a remnant section that was all misshapen and I evened it out and finished the edges and I use that. It's a beautiful golden yellow crinkle chiffon that goes with most of my color palette.

@TomKatStitchery 4 месяца назад

That's a great idea for a little wrap!

@MaryCunningham-u5j 4 месяца назад

So much fun to see what you have and how it all goes together, and such fun colors! Love that shawl thing - funny how we forget we have something unless we put it front and center - I just rediscovered a handbag for the summer I totally forgot all about - and I was very happy to find it, too - it was just what I was thinking I needed 😄. Looking forward to seeing your new items, too, when they're done.

Lots of eye candy. The Style Arc top with the ruffle has wonderful shape. The line drawings make me wonder if something similar could be done with a full flutter sleeve.

@TomKatStitchery 4 месяца назад

That's a great question--now I wonder the same!

@patgottshalk8808 4 месяца назад

@@TomKatStitchery I was just looking at the Posie pattern. It naturally creates an hourglass with the seaming. I think this is why it is so successful on various bodies. I do not own the pattern but I am stalking their site. Have a great day!

I love that LN Tidal Dress. And those blue flats are to die for!! You always make me want to run to my pattern list and fabric stash and sew up a storm after these Capsule planning videos! I am organizing my fabric stash in my new stash hub app and getting rid of the fabrics that are so not my colors. Had my colors done for Mother's Day and now feel so "on track"!

@TomKatStitchery 4 месяца назад

How exciting! You're going to be tearing through that stash now that you have it organized and have unlocked fit! I can't wait to see what you do!

I'm not really a bag person, but I LOVE that woven bag you got in NY. Who did you say that designer was? Also, I have that same belt bag from Amazon and I love it too! Mine is in a beautiful dark-ish blue color. Seriously one of my best Amazon purchases.

@TomKatStitchery 4 месяца назад

The designer is Clare V. Thanks for watching.

Hi Whitney. There was a lot of super casual stuff here so I was a little disappointed. I like to be a bit more put together than a t shirt. And all this casual stuff is kinder everywhere since the pandemic. We all need to be a bit more stylish than a t shirt. I don't mind a nice pair of shorts but again this shorts were kinder too casual. But thanks for sharing hopefully you will be making some more stylish stuff like you did when Italy inspired you ❤

@TomKatStitchery 3 месяца назад

So what I've learned about myself is that I tend to wear more casual clothes and not reach for the more formal things. And I want to wear what I make--a lot! So my everyday wardrobe is more casual and I will make more formal clothes occasionally.

@JaneyJane_sews 4 месяца назад

New subscriber here. What is your favorite pants pattern? I’m a similar shape and need some help? Janey

@TomKatStitchery 4 месяца назад

Hello and welcome! I think my favorite pants/trouser pattern is the Itch to Stitch Upland trousers. I REALLY love Itch to Stitch bottoms as they fit me really well. For summer, I really love their Belize shorts.

@KathyinKentuckyUSA 4 месяца назад

Whitney, by bust is just large enough to know the boat neck tee style can be tight across the front. I suggest you proceed with caution if the stripe knit doesn't have much stretch, greater than 40%

@TomKatStitchery 4 месяца назад

I'll check the pattern for the stretch percentage, because you're correct. If the pattern is drafted for a fabric with more stretch than the fabric has, it will be tight!

@madypennisi4823 4 месяца назад

@Cynthia2v 4 месяца назад

I just snagged a piece of white stretch denim to make another Taroka skirt. I am sizing up because I want it to hang on my hips rather than sit at my natural waist, plus I will add a couple of inches to the length. I made a dress similar to yours (TNT pattern) out of a cotton/spandex from Purple Seamstress that reminds me of a Lily Pulitzer fabric. Dresses are more comfortable in summer!

@TomKatStitchery 4 месяца назад

Yes!

@upcycledcopycat8389 4 месяца назад

I golf, bike, and urban hike (walk around) in skorts. At last count I have 24 of them. Every skirt I made in the last couple years is a skort. I just love wearing them instead of yoga Capri's all summer or shorts. It's the first thing I scout out in a thrift store and discounter. My first golf of the year last month I bought a sleeve of fluorescent pretty pink balls and a tiger striped skort. Only bought it before heading out on the course(on a discount rack) because I forgot to pack one for a spring road trip to visit gkids. Threw the golf bag in the car but forgot all the golf attire. Duhhhh Waiting to see what you come up with for a golfing capsule that you mentioned you might do. Wonder if I've already got the patterns.

@TomKatStitchery 4 месяца назад

Stay tuned--there is one planned for this summer!

@janicek6399 4 месяца назад

My mom's lowest ribs sat on top of her hip bones so she had NO waist so as she aged her styles really changed. But in pictures her wedding dress (1945) had a peplum to fake a waist. In today's sizing it measures a "2". She was very stylish and learned to enhance the illusion of her waist.😊

@TomKatStitchery 4 месяца назад

That's a great tip!

@kyliespooner9262 4 месяца назад

Wow! I love the gold eyelet jersey ruffled top on you. I’ve often heard you say that you should not put ruffles on top because you’re top-heavy, but I think you should ignore whoever told you that advice. That whole outfit with the fun little flirty skirt looks tremendous on you! Thank you for these videos. As a plus sized person, it is so great to see sewing patterns and clothes on all kinds of bodies.
