I looove wrap dresses!! They are so flattering and easy to wear! Can’t wait to get this pattern and some pre-loved fabric and make all kinds of wrap dresses!! 🪡🧵

I will for sure buy the pattern and give it a try 👍🏻 thank you Janelle for your great work and inspiring so many to try sewing 🧡

Congrats on your new pattern janelle! Look amazing and the fabric choice is beautiful 🤩

This is such a gorgeous dress! Thank you for the helpful tutorial!! I also appreciate that you have many sizes for this dress! 🙂

Thank you for your patterns! So easy to follow as I am a beginner with zero background on sewing.

It’s so satisfying to watch your tutorial videos! I can’t believe how speedy you are with the darts. I need to mark the stitching lines when I make mine otherwise I will be very wonky! 🤣 I just wanted to add that I always sew my thin woven fabrics with French seams (including pockets and sleeves). I own an overlocker but I prefer that method as I think it looks nicer inside plus it encases the seams nicely. Both dresses are so beautiful. You’re very clever being able to design and pattern cut and grade your patterns 😊

Love wrap dresses, they are so comfortable to wear.

Just bought this pattern today. It is the first pattern I have paid for on my sewing journey and I am so excited for the results. I love that there is a tutorial to go along with it. That is the only thing that gave me the confidence to buy the pattern.

Can’t wait to start on it when it arrives. Thanks again for showing us how to make it too! X

Loved your work! So inspireing. You are so clever and talented.Thank you.

Ahhhh I just bought the digital pattern and I'm soooooo excited to make it! It's such a beautiful, classic, and versatile silhouette - I can imagine myself wearing this for every occasion and every season by changing the length of the dress, the type of sleeve, and type of fabric I use!!! Also, just to echo what pretty much everyone in the comment section is saying: thank you so much for sharing these wonderful videos and patterns and sewing knowledge with us! I love watching all your videos and following along your instructional videos! They are so easy to follow and make the impossible seem possible. Additionally, you have inspired and motivated me to make my own clothes - so much so that I've bought a serger, which just arrived yesterday! Haha the serger came just in time for me to make the willow dress! ^_^

This is so exciting! It's so fun and creative. (just like you!)

Hi Janelle! Regarding the darts, I learned this technique where you start from the wider point of the dart, backstitch, sew down the length of the dart and then before you reach the “tip” of the dart you gradually decrease the stitch length until you reach the smallest one, and then you continue sewing just over the edge of the fabric and tie the threads in a knot like normal. I just learned this one and it’s been giving me really clean results so I thought I’d share! Especially considering how many darts you sew with every dress lol, maybe you’d like to give it a go. Anyway, I really love this pattern! I fell in love with the dress since that earlier video of yours. I’m really proud of you for your work, you’re such an inspiration 💖

Your pattern looks SO much easier than a McCall's one I got in the spring. I'm a newbie sewer and long story short, I ended up with one yard of useable fabric and the left and right front pieces of the pattern. Bonus points: the fabric was a limited edition print.

This is the best tip I can give you and the one I got when I first started to sew. Make a muslin before you cut into your main fabric of choice, after you made your first try and have seen how it looks on its time to make any changes if needed. This will make sure that you get the experience you need to make a beautiful well fitting piece with that fabric you first wanted. One more thing, when you create a muslin you should use a material that is as much alike the fabric you want to sew you garment in as possible. It is key to be sure it fits well. Normally I use old bedsheets, fabric from old or thrifted clothes and if I find a roll of something really cheep I buy that.

Aouch ! That sucks ! I did buy a few industrial pattern when I started sewing (McCall's, Burda and whatnot) and I got so confused by their instructions, I could never finish a single project. I went back to circle skirt and cloning some of my simplest garments until I discovered independant pattern-makers such as Janelle. Reeeal game changer 👌🏽 Especially since I'm far too lazy to sew toiles beforehand 😅

I bought this pattern as an early birthday present for myself. I am planning to use some fabric my Nana gave me that she had hoarded from the 80s (white with red polka dots). I can't wait to see how it turns out! Thanks Janelle :) keep up your great work

Just bought the pattern and SO EXCITED to make it! This will be my first clothing item I will have sewn and I'm happy I was able to support you on this journey lol I have a question about how much fabric to buy. The instructions have 45" & 60" for each dress and I'm wondering what does that mean? Should I follow one based on how tall I am? Is one the measurement for the front and the other for the back? lol hope this isn't a silly question but love you and LOVE the pattern!!

Nice dress! So sad I missed the sewing kit 😭

That dress looks beautiful on u

When you overlock does it increase the seam allowance? I don't know how to explain what I am asking, but I'm new and I don't quite understand how overlocking works. If I use an overlocker will it makes all the pieces smaller? I'm scared too make a dress too small to wear since I am already inbetween the sizes.

Would this also work with a large bosom? Mostly wrap dresses are a nightmare for me... but I live the look of yours! It’s so cute ♥️♥️♥️

@RoseryApparel

I’ve made it so it’s pretty covering at the bust, plus the wrap design makes it so you can tighten or loosen which helps depending on the look you’d like 😊

I like this style a lot and doesn't look too complicated, so I might try making it- although I'll have to wait for spring here in the northern hemisphere. ;-) Is there a particular reason why you make an extra "button hole" for the straps instead of just leaving some centimeters of the side seam open? I presume it would be safer to keep the fabric as intact as possible so it doesn't rip easily. What do you think?

Hi, I just found this pattern today. Looking around on Pinterest, it’s difficult to see if bodice/skirt seam falls closer to the natural waist or above. I tend to like more of an empire “waist” - if I wanted, could I just shorten the bodice to raise the waist seam?

Hi Janelle! I fell completely for a wrap dress in a shop made in a fake silk fabric. It was quite costly and it was not in my size, so now I want to sew one instead. The only problem with wrap dresses is that my waist is the same width as my bust size, and my bust is quite small, meaning the size fitting my waist and hips would be 14 cm too large in the bust area. Would it still be ok to use, or would it be too gaping in the bust? I read that this pattern is meant for sturdier fabrics, but do you think it would be ok to sew it in a sandwashed silk fabric? Thanks for all your wonderful sewing videos, they are really quite helpful ❤

Hi there! Thanks for being interested in my Willow pattern. There is a bit of shaping in the bust, but due to the wrap design it is possible to adjust the fit by wrapping it a bit tighter.. and yes, silk fabric should work beautifully 😊 x

Lovely dresses and I can't believe how beautiful your seconhand bedsheets look ! But I have to admit I am very confused by the name colour of your linen. You keep calling it ''mustard'' but on screen it looks like a rich brown (what I would call ''cognac'' or even ''camel'') and not at all like a dark yellow. Is the camera altering the colour that much ? Or is mustard a shade of brown in Australia ? I am really wondering because in France it is the dark yellow but sometimes, colour names change a lot from one language to the other !
