  • Hello Guys,
    I have, over a period of time, used Simplicity 8873 to create several summer dresses. This pattern has been my tried and true pattern, which encouraged me to continue using since it works well.
    Thanks for watching!

      Deidra, I am so happy you enjoyed watching and have shared your feedback. Thank you, I will start wearing them all😀

    These dresses are all so beautiful! I hope you start wearing them more! The nautical one looks like it should be worn on a cruise. So cute!

    • @cookeka
      @cookeka  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you, Tiffany. A cruise sounds ideal for that dress. I plan to start wearing these dresses soon🙂

    I really like the dress with the tiered midi skirt. As usual, your workmanship is impeccable. Would you consider doing a tutorial on the dress, as I would like to see how to sew the lining.

    • @cookeka
      @cookeka  ปีที่แล้ว

      Marlene, thank you for watching. The tiered maxi dress does not have a lining, and the dress I plan to sew will not have one. If I sew another dress with a lining, I will definitely record and share🙂

    Karon, I can't say enough about your sewing skills! You have taught me how important it is to finish each garment on the inside. All of your summer dresses are gorgeous. I can't believe you haven't worn some of them yet!

    • @cookeka
      @cookeka  ปีที่แล้ว

      Janice, I am happy my video provides encouragement. I appreciate you watching and sharing your kind words. I mostly work and home, so there is not much opportunity to wear😀

    Karon, those sundresses are just beautiful! But I find it tragic that you’re not wearing them. 😢Dresses are perfect for summer! Cool and classy! I love all of them but my favorite might be the nautical one with the cute sandals. You don’t need an occasion to wear one, put one on and go grocery shopping!😊

    • @cookeka
      @cookeka  11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Donna, yes, I have started wearing them now. Previously, I didn't think I had places to go to wear the dresses, but I put them on some weekends now😀

    Those are so beautiful! I like the pink dress, I don't know where you could wear it, but it is lovely. You really to either quit making pretty dresses or start wearing them! You are so gifted with your hobby, but wear your garments!

    • @cookeka
      @cookeka  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Marcia, yes, I agree. I am happy you found one you liked. It's time to start wearing them😀

    I’m a guy and don’t wear dresses, but this was a cool experiment seeing the same person in the same (or 90% same) pattern just in different fabrics. Sometimes it’s difficult understanding how to make something that isn’t a copy, or HEAVILY inspired by, the pattern envelope fabric choice. Thank you. Nice work.

    Absolutely love. Your summer dresses but the one you are going to draft from the mc calls skirt and butterick top is going to be gorgeous. You sew so great and your insides are impeccable! Keep making your great blogs too as I really enjoy them! Have a great Sunday!!!

    My goodness, Karon, you are a skilled sewist. The inside of your garments looks as wonderful as the outside. I have mastered French seams, but I sure couldn’t apply bias binding as neatly as you do. I’m also impressed that you get so much done in addition to a job outside the home!! I really enjoy your videos. Thanks for sharing your beautiful makes.

    • @cookeka
      @cookeka  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hello Jan, I am sure you would do a beautiful job applying bias binding to your seams. I appreciate your kind feedback. It is often challenging to balance both sewing and work, but hopefully, it gets easier. Thanks for watching 🙂

    Wow you do love that dress! I do have that pattern and made view B. It turned out beautifully! I used a boarder print. I love it so much I ordered another boarder print fabric. I plan on making view A also. I did line the top of the dress. It’s an easy make! All of your dresses were gorgeous. 👗🧵🪡🥰

    • @cookeka
      @cookeka  ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi Karon, you are so very talented in your seamstress skills. You are a very colorful person and look adorable in ALL of the dresses. You definitely know what looks great on your person.
    I feel you should use that full skirt pattern. Give it a go. Maybe you can lower the waist and back bodice with the fuller skirt?

    I can't believe you haven't worn any of those beautiful dresses. You do such a wonderful job creating them. You must wear them. Would you consider doing a sew a long on one of your dresses or button-up shirts?

    • @cookeka
      @cookeka  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Vanessa, it's easy to sew and forget to wear garments. I have limited occasions to wear them, but I will make the effort to dress up even while home to enjoy my work.
      I will add a shirt dress or button-up shirt to my list of videos. Thanks for watching.

      @cookeka  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Carolyn, no, I do not. I have only lined the two linen dresses in this video. The fabric was too transparent for a skirt, and the lining helped with the structure of the garment. That would be too much work for me.
