@@madebycathcraft I've ordered that last pattern, it's currently £5 from Hobby Craft 🙂 Find the Indie patterns easier to follow but it does have a lot of options, could see myself making the dress version as well as the jumpsuit.
Oh my I love your selections.....the arianna by style arc I made and i had to adjust the bust abit but after that it was great......oh and I shortened the skirt 3 inches and was still to long for me but then again i am 5ft 4inches......but I liked making it just as much as i like wearing it. I made two dresses and I hacked the skirt to make it into a "peplum " blouse for my 3rd.
Hi Cath. Just viewed you for the first time. Love your summer wardrobe selection, especially the 'Chalk & Notch' dress. Trying to improve my skills, keep re-making a shift dress pattern! You've inspired me to branch out! Obtaining pretty fabrics such as you've used isn't easy though, especially during lockdown (even the buttons you've chosen look great). Any help on that would be much appreciated.
Hi Susan, thanks for watching! Some of my favourite online fabric shops are Minerva, Guthrie-Ghani, SewMeSunshine and Lamazi Fabrics. The latter three are small businesses and really responsive if you have questions about fabrics, pattern matches, etc. For buttons I often to go Minerva and also Textile Garden.
You are a very talented sewist. All your dresses are so well made and look good on you. Thank you for your Vlogs and I look forward to each one that you upload. xxx
Thoroughly enjoyed this video Cath so much so I ordered the Honeycomb dress by Cocowawa to try. Just getting back into sewing after quite a few years of ill health. Fingers crossed it goes ok. Thank you again, take care from Newcastle upon Tyne xx
Lovely patterns and you you always pick a lovely fabric, your button choices make the garments - a garment looks more professional with the right finish👍
Could you maybe either do a sew along using double gauze or your tips and suggestions on how to sew with double gauze, because it's a bit tricky to work with and you seem to be really good at sewing with it. Your makes are beautiful!
I really enjoy your five favourites videos, you have sewn some beautiful dresses and your sewing is so neat. I thought that your button choices were spot on.Do you have a go to shop for buttons, if so please share.🌹
All of your makes are beautiful, I don't know which one I like the best. I just purchased a McCalls summer dress pattern. I can't wait to start sewing it.
Thank you very much! Hope you enjoy sewing your McCalls summer dress, I’m definitely starting to feel like sewing for summer now we are getting some sunshine.
Lovely vlog as always! Definitely make up a Fringe dress for your daughter! That would be adorable 🥰 Agreed on the Charlie Caftan being fiddly! I made one up in viscose and I watched a tutorial multiple times for the waist placket 😬 I have the Ariana dress pattern! Great inspiration to sew one up 💕
Thank you very much! Yes I’m really tempted to get the mini fringe for my daughter! 😊 I’m glad it’s not just me re the Charlie caftan, I’m looking forward to trying it again at some point and seeing if it’s just as fiddly second time round 😄 The Ariana is such a pretty pattern hope you enjoy sewing it 😊💖
Hi Cath, lovely sewing. I’m sure you know that Sew Over It are revising their pattern sizes, so hopefully the Penny dress will be one they will bring out in the new size range. 🌈🍓🧶
Thank you very much! Ah that’s fab re Sew Over It, yes fingers crossed they’ll bring out an extended size range for the Penny soon, it’s such a nice one. Thanks for watching 😊💖
What an excellent video! I am IN LOVE with the fabrics you used, especially the penny dresses! Wow! 😍 P.S. Both pronunciations of voile are correct. One is American English and the other is the more French. 😁
As usual, great makes. The fabrics you choose for the patterns are always spot on. I'ts interesting how we all have different opinions and success with indie patterns. I for one have not been successful with indie patterns. I purchased the book "Tilly and the Buttons -- Stretch" after seeing it in your channel, and have had absolutely no luck in making the the Stella Hoodie and Joggers. I can't figure out why I have not had any luck. I also tried making the Bibi Pinafore dress without success. I have been curious as to why all your makes are from indie patterns and not the top four. I grew up with my Mom sewing McCalls and Simplicity, and that's what I've always sewn. Good to see you as always.
Thank you very much. Oh that’s a shame you haven’t had success with the patterns you’ve tried from the Stretch book. I would like to try more big 4 patterns, I have really liked the small number of ones I have sewn to date and I feel more confident with their instructions these days 😊 thanks for watching
Thank you, I’m looking for a shift dress pattern with fitted sleeves. Have you made and shown this type of dress ? I’m new to sewing dresses, and I really enjoyed your video. 😊
May I ask a question? The dress on your opening screen, the one with pink flowers, is just what I have been looking for. Can you share what pattern that is?
thank you for another fab vlog, there are some great recommendations there :) I've been eying up the charlie kaftan for a while and you've convinced me that I NEED it (that's what I'll tell hubby anyway lol) Also.... is shirring difficult? I've avoided it because it looks all technical, but it gives such a nice effect! Thank you again :)
Thank you for watching! 😄 glad to have convinced you on the Charlie caftan, it’s such a nice pattern for summer. I was a bit daunted by shirring but it was more straight forward than I thought. I hand wound the bobbin with the shirring elastic and then gave it a go on some practice fabric first and used normal tension and it worked fine. 😊
Loved this video! Thank you, I have the fringe dress and the penny dress and I'm now thinking of buying the cocowawa pattern - I wonder if you know of a similar pattern (love the side ties) but with a full collar rather than mandarin? I'm not keen on mixing patterns as I'd hate for it all go wrong x
Thanks for watching! That’s a good question on a similar pattern to the honeycomb with a full collar, I haven’t come across one but I know the Foldline have a really good pattern database on their website so you could try having a look there x

Your makes were beautiful!
Thank you very much! 😊
Beautiful makes and top tips Thank You xxx

All the dresses were lovely I couldn't chose a favourite dress. The fabrics are all beautiful. Now all we need is good weather.
Thank you very much 😊 yes fingers crossed for some lovely warm weather soon!
thanks for sharing I'm loving that last pattern, been looking for a jumpsuit with that neckline :-)
Fab, so glad you found it helpful, thank you for watching! 😊

Oh fab that’s a good price! Yes I prefer indie pattern instructions too but I did find that one not too bad to follow, hope you enjoy it too 😊

Thank you for a wonderful presentation of summer dresses! Really inspiring and well done! 😍
Thank you very much! 💖
Love all your makes, it gets very tricky deciding on what to match ones fabric to a pattern.
Thank you! Yes I find it tricky matching fabrics to patterns, I’m a lot more decisive with some fabrics than others!
So beautiful thanks🙏🏻🌸
Thank you very much 😊💖
I love the striped Ariana dress! And now I dream of a summet vacation at the beach...
Thank you very much! Yes I’m dreaming of summer holidays too 😊
Really enjoyed this. Lovely to see these patterns made up in the different fabrics.
Thank you very much!

WoW they are all amazing. You are very talented and the styles really suit you
Thanks so much 😊

Oh fab thanks that’s great to know ☺️
Beautiful!!
