    The bow top is so adorable! And the knit rabbit is very very cute. I really like the way you've described the negatives of the projects haha. I think it's kinda incredible that you made an entire cardigan. Your enunciation is really clear lol. Congrats on meeting your goal!!

    "...make room for... Growth?" I laughed so abruptly, I choked! Thanks for reminding me that i have two pairs of boxers cut for my husband. They're two different quilting cottons featuring bananas :-) I like to add 2" to the waist height for a folded elastic channel. That way, I can use standard 1" elastic, because the kind with the fuzzy side is not available to me locally. I love the idea of a long wool dress lined with flannel. That sounds super cozy, but oh, the fabric consumption!

    • @ablueleafy
      @ablueleafy 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Sarah Mariam has pretty good instructions, and the three in one bubble bag has some youtube instructional videos as well.

  • @kaytemnorwood
    @kaytemnorwood 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    If you're worried about the pants staying up, you could always try suspenders. I don't really like belts because they squinch my waist in a way I don't like, but suspenders have really changed the way that I wear pants. It'll also keep them up when you put things in your pockets. All your other makes (and including the pants) turned out so cute and whimsical. Great job!

    • @ablueleafy

      @ablueleafy 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I could, but I don't know how they work yet because I've never actually used one. I think Peppermints Wide Leg pants pattern that I am making next has one though!

  • @rootedromantic
    @rootedromantic 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Sew many projects! I’m excited to see how things turn out. That guy on a bike pattern looked slick. How can you tell if a fabric is synthetic or not?

    • @ablueleafy
      @ablueleafy 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I do a burn test! You can tell by ow the fabric reacts to being burnt. For example, cotton smells like paper and turn to ash when burnt where as most synthetics turn into a hard nub of plastic.
