I've never used a machine just hand sewed, but I want to start making my own clothes...... With skirts how do you measure it? I think I'm a size up from you maybe 1.5..... if I'm bloated lol sorry I just found your videos yesterday and been beidge watching. I'm ADHD and Autistic (41) but didn't till I was an adult so I grew up thinking I was wrong..... But your clothes is all I want to wear!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But they don't sell that in the stores. Can you help me?

I love the part about feeling the energy of the fabric, and what story they tell together! Next time I'm matching fabrics, I'm going to compose a story❤️ Thank you for this video!!

So excited to get started tonight! Ps. can't wait to see what you'll turn the galaxy bedsheets into. You really inspire my sewing game, so thank you for that

It totally does take the stress out! Agreed!

It was really interesting to have a peek into your process as a small business owner! You got some beautiful fabrics from your thrifting adventures in this vid; the pink flowery fairy garden fabric is my fave, it gives me such 90s vibes; also the purple space themed fabric is amazing! I'd love to see a video of you making a wedding gown with those gorgeous lacy fabrics

Thank you so much !! Sadly nooooooo :'( I would have LOVED to though!

Hi Carly 💗 What a fun video! I love all your videos but this might be my favorite. Loved seeing behind the scenes of your business - really inspires me to get going on a biz of my own! Also loved hearing about your process of finding fabrics and combining ones that are “friends”! Such a sweet method - I’m going to try that out! Thank you for all the tips you share🌷 I’d love to learn how you make different types of puff sleeves and how you figure out overall dress sizing. 🦋 I find both kinda tricky. 🙃 I’m about to start making a gardening/Winnie the Pooh themed quilted vest for my aunt’s bday! 🥰

Aw :') Thank you Ellen! This is so nice. Ooooh good luck if you ever decide to open your own business - it is such a fun thing to do! hehehe let me know how you go! Sometimes just focussing on finding 'friends' in fabric choices can take the pressure off deciding fabrics & it just lets your inner child play! That sounds INCREDIBLE! Please update on quilted vest - I'm already so excited for your project!

Thank you Carly! That was a beautiful video and you give me so much inspiration and positive energy, during a time that I'm really self-conscious about my upcycling work and I really needed it 💖

Thank you so much for watching! I just find it so beautiful & rewarding to play with scraps! (although my studio doesn't always look beautiful storing all the scraps loll). Also that sounds amazing - I hope it goes super well!

Another lovely video 😍 for some reason I have been limiting myself to buying 100% cotton sheets for sewing but after this I think I'm going to explore other materials. Curtain is such a fun idea 😍 At the moment I'm sewing bags. I don't see to have much endurance for bigger projects and I love finding colours that go together for the bags. And if the colours are too crazy, it's just a bag 🤩 Looking forward to your next video x

Thank you so much! I mean 100% is super ideal - I often find myself looking for that label too. But there are SO many other fun textiles to play with too! I just started working with furnishings for pants & jackets & that has been awesome as well. Bags! I love it! It sounds like you're having a lot of fun which is amazing!

Hi Carly! Loved this video and getting to see your process. It’s helpful to know that you “bite off” little tasks instead of doing them all at once- I think that’ll help my productivity! You’re also just so darn cute! Just curious, what are the grey bands around your wrist?

Hi Carly! Thanks for sharing your process! It was very inspiring to watch!!! And congrats on your fresh YT channel! Meanwhile, I've noticed that you're using sticky tape to attach your labels... I used to do the same until I discovered half-sheet self-adhesive shipping labels. Just wanted to share it with you as they literally saved my life and time :)

Hi Stacy!! Thank you so much for watching. oOOOOh I'm going to look into that - I would love a more efficient way to label. Appreciate it alot!

Really like this video

Hey Carly - instead of overlocking - would the zig zag or another hack work? I've seen in another YT video that when she cut the design out of her squares, some of the stitching came a part - but maybe that was because she hadn't overlocked it/done anything with the seams...??

Would love to know what brand of iron you’re using

Why have I never thought to just block out an hour for sewing??
