I haven’t made myself clothes in years (most of my sewing is decor items, rag dolls, and embroidery/cross stitch) so I am encouraged by your determination. Liked your haul. I am heading back to Hobby Lobby for a few more patterns this week!

    Hi Jacque! Great choice of patterns. I don't remember the swimsuit cover up using loads of fabric but I did make the short sleeve version. The sleeve is all in one hence the long sleeves version needs mahousive amounts 😂. That is such a cute little strawberry dress 🍓. Great job on the geocaching, we avoid the coordinates one in case we do it wrong 😂. We haven't done any for ages, we need to 🕵🏻‍♀️Thanks so much for the shout outs and yes, I have so many of those patterns ❤ x

    Hello. Your channel just showed up in my feed today. I enjoyed your video. ❤ Why don't you redo the waistline and gathering and make the toile perfect to wear. It'll be good practice for your better fabric and will look lovely! I look at anything I have to fix along the way of my making as extra time to be involved in the process of my craft... it changed my outlook on the whole process and I came to recognise as I got older that I am very much a process maker and as such I don't try and sprint anymore to the end, but just enjoy my meander along the way 😀

    Jackie, know that G_d is the only Being who can create perfect gathers and a perfect waistline. I am taking liberties here to assume that Our Creator has many other things on the To Do list aside from sewing so perfect gathers and waistlines will never happen. Your toile is lovely and the print is soft and feminine. Please consider finishing it and wearing it, if it seems imperfect to you, well nothing we create is perfect. Seriously, it is lovely as is the laundry day tee and once again young lady you need to work on that habit you have of being so self critical. ❤️

    Your project bag came out great! In the past three years I “discovered” you tube and instantly found Jen Sews and the Fab Five,ViviMom, The SewingRoom Channel, Evelyn Woods, and then each channel linked to so much more, including your channel. And then there is Floss Tube!!!!! I was always into embroidery, but not cross stitch. I have become an avid stitcher now. I am still learning and discovering both in sewing/quilting as well as several forms of needlework. My only problem is that at 72 I am racing with time to do so many fun projects that I have seen. Your amazement at the quantity of projects some people get finished is spot on….how do they do it!!!! I really like the little devotional messages that you and Jen share….it is the cherry on top of each episode. Thank you!!!

    I am glad that you found your joy and are giving yourself grace. The grace we give to others we also have to give to ourselves. I’d look at how tight the sleeve is and if the shoulder seam is too far off of the shoulder. Is the shirt riding up when you lift your arms? Why are we supposed to cut knit fabric right side out?

    • @thesewingpastorswife
      @thesewingpastorswife 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I haven't put the shirt back on yet - but will check that out! She said it is much easier to see and line up the grainline (when a knit has a right and wrong side) if we cut facing up. My brain always says right side down - I don't know if I was taught that back in Home Ec or what! 🧵jacque🧵

    Jacque, you did a fantastic job on that neckline. You knocked it out of the ballpark with all of your finished projects. I absolutely LOVE that project bag. Like you, I talk to myself out loud and chastise myself when I make a "stupid" mistake. I'm looking forward to what you accomplish this week. Thank you for the wonderful devotional.

    You nailed that neckline! I made the Laundry Day Tee a couple of times now and there is something going on with my shoulders too and I’ve heard the same from a lot of people… so… it’s not you or your sewing skills. I also find the armsceye is VERY tight on that top. If you had a little bit more room at the upper bust (so if your armhole was a touch bigger), your “assets” would not be so on display 😂 But that top is meant to be fitted at the bust and then swing out.

    • @thesewingpastorswife
      @thesewingpastorswife 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      You know, I didn't even think about it until I read your comment - the first one I made also fitted. DUH! I think it wasn't as noticeable to me in the first one because of the print on the fabric for that one. And THANK YOU for the confirmation on the shoulder. The best thing I did was shorten the length of the tunic by 1.5 inches. I really love the shape of the LDT. 🧵jacque🧵

The bowl cozy and the project bag came out awesome!! I have never cross stitched but I’d love to try it ..I do crochet ALOT.

    Bravo! Yay! Go you! Believe me I know all about being self critical and can give good advice because CHIEF OF SINNERS HERE. I am trying to do better. Everyone tells me this but I never listen. And yes I do talk to myself out loud. Your neckline looks really, really good! As does your bowl cozy, even though my husband graduated from Michigan State and grew up in Columbus as a Buckeye fan. I am supposed to be loyal by marriage but honestly I grew up in Ohio too and I don't really care. And your project bag! So cute! I am no expert, but I think the problem with your top is that your shoulders seams aren't long enough and that's throwing off the whole upper half thing. Which leads me to think that you may either need a half size larger or an FBA. I would certainly try the half size up first - Nancy Zieman the Sewing Queen always said to go with your upper bust measurement when you are finding your size. That works most of the time for me, I just grade out to accomodate for my much larger waist. Oh the joys of getting older and the old lady spare tire! If that doesn't work, then you might just need to lengthen the shoulder seam so it reaches to that bone. The top doesn't look that tight to me, just close fitting. But like you said, if you're uncomfortable with it just throw on a cardigan and you'll be all set. First thing I noticed was the sleeves and I honestly thought 'how did she get that cute trim on the hems? Is that a rolled hem? Oh wait, did she just leave them raw? Genius, it looks so good!' Total Diet Coke snob here. I didn't know there was an app for geocaching - what fun! Oh, the faithfulness of God. Thanks for calling it Resurrection Sunday - we always do that too. Have a great time at your sunrise service rejoicing in our King!

      "supposed to be loyal by marriage" - that made me LOL. Whenever I see someone wearing a Michigan shirt I want to say, "Go Blue!" and then remember: I don't care and it isn't even "my" team. 😂 Will try another LDT for sure because I love the shape of this shirt! I'd totally forgotten that my first LDT was also close fitting - it just wasn't as noticeable due to the fabric choice. I shortened the overall link by 1.5 inch (I'm only 5 feet tall) and I'm so glad I did. I don't know why I was so nervous about shortening the pattern - ha! Thanks for giving me the talking to - I needed to hear it!!! 🧵jacque🧵

    I talk to myself , too…and often out loud. If the shirt doesn’t fit the way YOU want, then it needs to be changed. I like things a little loose, for similar “asset coverage “. Your project bag is lovely,,,love the colors! Thanks for the comments on God’s faithfulness to those ..umm… maturing. Which always includes me. Glad to see that you seem to have traveled through your own season of growth , with an improved attitude and big smile. Loved all of it…except the Michigan fabric (kidding).. my house is Ohio fan country. Have another great week…Chris in FL

      Thank you! We have a few Ohio State fans in our congregation and PD has definitely had some fun this past year! I just need some Diet Coke fabric for my bowl cozy because that's the only team I care about. hahaha. Blessing to you! 🧵jacque🧵

    You could fo aFBA since it fits good everywhere else. Karina from lifting pins and needles has an excellent vlog on it.

      Karina is a fabulous teacher! Love Notions patterns always have an FBA option but my measurements said I didn't need one. Sigh. It is supposed to be a closer fitting shirt - I'm just so used to wearing oversize clothes, I wasn't even thinking about it. Also, the print on this fabric versus the first one I made is very different - my other one was close fitting too - I just didn't notice as much because the other fabric was darker, I guess. 🧵jacque🧵

    The minute your video started I thought "I love that T shirt ❤". Great job on the neckline, I think it has just come out looking like a fitted T shirt, it doesn't look too tight it looks like it is meant to be slim fitting around the 'assets' 😂. Many of my T shirts looked the same! That bag is SO PRETTY 😍. It looks so similar to the wet bags I made a couple of weeks ago, why didn't I think of making them without waterproofing for other bits and bobs? thank you for that idea 😊. I LOVE geocaching and we have done it in many countries 👏🏼, we have found 150 now and always try and do one on our vacations. The best thing to do with or without children 😂. Great to see you ❤

      I totally realized after Izzy mentioned it that the LDT IS supposed to be close fitting! I made my first one in that blue fabric that you and I both have from Joann (with some black and then yellow flowers) and the fit was the same - just not as noticeable in the darker fabric. Every time I look at that project bag, I'm so darn pleased with it. I can't wait to make another. And I need a waterproof one for the kids swim suits when we go to the creeks and splash pads!!! We did a mission trip to Spain some years ago and I made PD go geocaching with me. I was so excited to have that badge on the app! I try to get at least one anytime I visit a new state. It's been a while since I've done it but going with Eloise made me remember how fun it is! 🧵jacque🧵

    The shoulder seam should fit at the edge of your shoulder. It looks like it is popping up because it is a little small in that area.

    That bag is darling! If it makes you feel better about making mistakes, I made 3 tees for my 1 year old grandson and I totally cut one of the out with the print upside down. I just had to laugh.

      Thanks! And I've done the upside down thing too. 🧵jacque🧵

    I noticed first off how great the neckline looks! Is isn't too tight. If I feel a little uncomfortable, I will put my arms inside and swish them back and forth to kind of stretch it a bit. Styla has a TH-cam channel with sew alongs!

      I need to get those sleeves and hem finished - I'm still going to wear this because that fabric is too pretty to not wear it!! I love so many of the Styla patterns. And the Little Lizard King dresses are so gorgeous - I need to show them to my granddaughter and have her pick one out. (I'll have to filter out the ones that are "above my paygrade" haha) 🧵jacque🧵
