4 Dresses & A Jacket ~ July 2019 Sewing ~

Ойын-сауық

Thanks, everyone, for voting on the jacket fabric choices!! Colin and I tallied all the votes on Tuesday. It was close. Purple flannel just edged out black and white sparkle, and mauve burnout was third. I chose black and white sparkle as you saw and I love it. The other contenders just might get sewn as well!😃

    Yes, I've used iron on tape in a pinch for seam finishing. The jacket looks great! The overlay dress, purple, diagonal print in that order. All are winners. Congrats. Now fall wardrobe planning? We have such humid & or warm Septembers- kind of a reprive. Happy sewing! P.S. have you any recommendations for working with mid & heavier weight sweater knits? I'm usually fearless cutting but these are tricky. Thanks!

I don’t know what I thought would happen - banging on the door and the Sewing Police come barreling forth with megaphones calling me out, lol. I don’t know if the fusing will hold during washing, but it seems pretty secure.😄👍

    Bravo!!!! I love ALL of your dresses and don't have a favorite because all of them are FABULOUS. You look smashing in each one!! Your jacket is a winner, too! Quick tip: If you sew a button on the reverse side of the shank (let the thread catch a regular flat button sewn directly behind it on the inside of the garment), the shank-style button will become "stabilized" and it won't come loose.😊I can't wait to see the children in their outfits. You are 👑queen of sewing! 💖👍🏽🌟🏆🌱🌹🍃👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

    I love all your dresses & that jacket is perfect with 1 button. My favorite is the asymmetrical panel dress. I gave myself permission to relax on my garment sewing. I’m traveling in October with my husband & set an unrealistic goal of wearing me made outfits over the 10 days. My skills are not advancing quickly enough & I was feeling the pressure & losing my joy in the process. I Longarm quilt & have so much more success with that, due to hours of practice. I have committed to quilting a king size quilt for my guild to raffle off as a fundraiser which is keeping me busy for now, I love your videos. Keep them coming please

    Hi, I love your videos, your wit and humility make feel inspired. I really appreciate your practicality as well, i.e.- replacing zippers when a keyhole can suffice, using bias tape rather than a bulky facing, etc. I especially appreviate it when you admit that you've made a mistake(like the picket issue on the jacket). I so appreciate that; it helps me when I make a mistake. I'd love to meet you sometime, I think we would be grest buds!

    Loving the artisan and pleated front & back dresses and I am not a dress lover. Kudos on getting the jacket done. I did not get a Barbie dress sewn but, I did have 2 miracles happen. My mother fell, didn't break anything but, couldn't walk so there was talk of a nursing home. By the next day she was walking, miracle #1. Monday morning I checked on the babies (5 orphaned kittens) and the littlest one I thought was dead. She had been fine the night before but now wasn't going to make it. I worked on her for hours getting what I could down her with a syringe but not too much. A lot of crying and praying and by that night she was able to suck on a bottle. Still don't know why but am bottle feeding her every 2 hours even though she eats with her sibs. They will be 6 weeks old Aug 5th but, think she will be staying with us, my little miracle. So no Barbie dress but would rather have my miracles

    You did it! I was so inspired by your videos that today I bought a top pattern and linen to create it. About 10 years ago I became overwhelmed by advice from 'fitting gurus' and stopped sewing clothes and started making quilts. Your advice on choosing a pattern size made so much sense to me I decided to try again. Thank you for lighting my fire for creating pretty garments again. LOLove!

    Hi Marilyn! The same thing nearly happened to me - I got embroiled in a couple fitting forums on a sewing site and my head was spinning. Then one woman told me that I would “never” understand fit, or be able to sew well fitting pants. I wish I wouldn’t remember her words so clearly, but I do. I think some advice is fine, but too much is deadly. So glad you’re feeling like picking it up again. When I spent some time with the pattern and figured out about fitting my full bust, there was no turning back. I’m wishing you much success, and thanks a mil for writing!😄
