McCalls 8160 ~ Sew With Me

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Here is a very easy learn-to-sew pattern! I take you through step-by-step and I add a lining! I show a simple alteration too. It is oversized with a drop shoulder so be aware that the fit may look different than on the model. I went down a size and it was still big!

    Yes I knew the clips to adjust the fit! I feel that is deceptive! Therefore we have to make a t wall for nearly every darn pattern! More work on our part to get a garnet that fit our body!

    I love that colour and fabric on you! You sparkle ✨ in it. I honestly can see this shortened with leggings and more of a long top than dress. You can rock this one with accessories! I haven’t lined anything in years good review for me, thank you for sharing your sewing with us ❤️

    Thank you! I agree the length isn't right. I am planning a "where are they now" video of the changes I made to projects. This one is likely going to make an appearance. The fabric is so lovely, I have to salvage it. 💖

    Yes a medium would work. I hate it when stores clip tops. Love the fabric. I wouldn’t keep that pattern. Yes chop it off. Maybe do some rouching on the sleeves. Great job!

    You sew all the things I love! Have you thought about on over view of what you are doing? It would be so very helpful for us to see what's happening and you wouldn't have to hold everything up. Happy new year to you!

    Veronica, you have great taste! 😁 I have some videos with overhead filming, and hope to go back to it soon. I'm going to be doing a complete sewing room makeover soon and will finally get all things unpacked and set up. So - coming soon a better set up for filming! Happy new year to you!

    I really appreciate the time you spend on sizing and grading of the pattern. Made the shorts from this pattern last fall. Not happy with it. I was hoping you were more successful than I. I am smaller on top and carry my X-Large on my stomach.

    Ahh... The reason we sew can also be the reason we throw our projects across the room. I lent the shirt to my sis for a bit as we are built differently. It fit her well though too long. I will be revisiting it before long because I love the fabric and would like to get to wear it! 🧵

    Thank you for making this. I have the pattern, but now I've seen it made up (beautifully by the way), I think I'll use it to make pyjamas as it is very loose, and roomy.

    Thank you for this! You're a beautiful lady, and you inspire me to sew! 💕😊 The thing with plus sized gals like us and these patterns, is they think our top size is plus too.

    Horray and thank you! You are right about fit issues. No two people are the same even if they wear the same size. That is part of what makes sewing so wonderful (and sometimes frustating). 😅🧵

    Beautifully sewn. I love the fabric and the dress. I think that you could sized down from the neck to the armpit --- and then from an inch down, start grading out. Thank you so much for sharing x

    Looks comfy! I like the silver fabric too.Did you end up adding some accessories? It would be perfect for a relaxed evening out (or in 🤭) I'm going to start working with this pattern today. Your video was very helpful. Thank you for taking the time to share the process.

    It is comfy! My sister has worn it a few times. I never have. The sleeve needs shorted a bit to be more flattering for me. I am glad you mentioned it. It is time to drag it back to the sewing room and get it fixed. Let me know how your project turns out!

    I think it turned out cute after your changes. I agree about shortening the sleeves. That’s one reason why I like PDF patterns because there are so many testers that you see in all different sizes once the pattern is released. Seeing one picture or drawing on an envelope is not enough for me. 🤣

    Thank you! I am not through editing this project for certain! You are right about seeing the actual garment made on different models matters. I love the cute drawing on patterns but they are not acurate at all. It has been a while since I have done a PDF pattern. I need to revisit them.

    I like the dress on you. I was wondering when you wash it, don’t stick it in the dryer and then try it on. I like it is a bit roomy in the shoulder area.

    I am so glad you commented on this pattern. This project is in my re-do pile. My sister has worn it once. The dropped shoulder style just isn't for me.

    They have the model in a video on Instagram and her dress isn’t clipped, I think it’s just sized down. I thought your dress was super cute though. Seems like a good basic t-shirt dress pattern.

    That is good to know! I looked at this dress this morning. I am still thinking about a few revisions. I think it could be a staple pattern!
