    Auto needle threader is only good for certain needles. I wish someone would have mentioned that, cause I broke mine, but I wasn't trying to thread a small needle eye, I'll get it fixed when I have some other item to fix, not worth running to get it fixed, there are needle threaders I can use.

    I would love to purchase the PDF file For this shift dress. Unfortunately, the internet says there is no such location. Perhaps this needs to be checked and or a clickable link be put into this video so that others who see this perfect shift dress can purchase? This shift dress looks fantadtic, and the sweetheart neckline version would make a wonderful little black dress.

      Hi hi! Yes you could! A puff sleeve wouldn't require any adjustments however if you wanted a closer fitting sleeve, you might want to review the armscye shape, widening it a little to be closer to the arm (I hope that makes sense)!

    It would be really great to actually show the sewing in of the elastic and how it should look after sewing in. This was the step that I was most interested in seeing/need a visual reference for, and unfortunately it's not included.

      @gracie_steel ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks Annmarie! It was me haha!! I plan to make a video tutorial for this (either on ig or here), but essentially what I did was took one of the upper front pieces and carved a C shaped opening into the side seam. It started around 3cm from the edges and was around 2cm deep. I serged it and then when I sewed the side seams, the upper and lower edges were still attached but the centre section (as it didn't match the side seam anymore) stays open! I hope this helps.

    I made the foxie boxie shorts last weekend. I would estimate it took 3 hours from cutting the pattern pieces to finishing the shorts. I love the thick grown on waistband and how secure (not floppy) the pockets are. This is a quick sewing project and I will be making more for the summer. Based on my hip measurement, I went one size down for a less baggy fit. This is the perfect boxer short pattern and I couldn’t recommend it enough.
