Love your videos, you’re my Saturday morning breakfast date
Awwh. Thank you. I enjoy your company too. Thanks for stopping by. Have a great week❤
Love your plans. Hubby and I often watch your videos together on Friday nights and we sometimes try to guess how old you are, can't believe you're in your 40's, girl you look great. We had you pegged for 30-33. I often read the transcript to videos but the interpretations are always way off so I had a good laugh when I read that you're not 100% sure what to wear to "Frog Tails".😂❤
Ha ha Frogtails😆😆. That'd be an interesting night. Your so kind. Thank you so much for watching. I hope you have a great weekend ❤
Hey I hear ya with the pronounce of words. I love the camillis dress. Please make that. I’m gonna look at that pattern! I have to be careful with tiered dresses cause I have a short body ❤❤
I always love your plans video. The Tommie skirt style is certainly still around and i think it would look so great on you. I think the stretch denim would work with the Tommie, i guess the pattern will advise how much stretch. Im looking forward to seeing some of these garments on you. Enjoy! ❤❤
Oh Deb. Me too. I am so anxious about Frocktails and this collaboration after having such a unproductive month. I have almost finished my collab project so hopefully I can relax a bit and make something more practical. Thank you so much for dropping by. I really appreciate your friendship.❤❤
That’s why I haven’t made pants! I know I’ll have to work on getting the fit right. I can’t afford the fabric to make mock-ups and our thrift stores around here are even expensive! I may try some elastic waist knit pants! It seems odd that you’re talking about spring clothes. I live in the US and I need to sew for fall and winter, pants and long sleeves! Right now I’m working on quilts for my 4 adult kids that I started about 25 years ago. I just finished the second one and I almost have the top done on the third. My goal is to finish that one before Christmas since that daughter is coming home for Christmas! Happy sewing!
I hear you about the expense of mock up fabric. I find knit fabrics are really expensive here. Our second-hand stores are getting expensive too. The local community op shops are much more affordable. Do you have them there? We are very used to you guys being in the opposite season to us. The UK and US are always on TV. Not unusual to us at all. It's funny how being such a big country we get forgotten all the time. I really appreciate you spending time with me and taking the time to chat. Have a lovely week 😊❤
What an amazing plans❤ I loved the fabric your partner got for you. Also I really like StyArc patterns, but little bit worried to try on them since their constructions are a bit skim. I am looking forward to see your makes as always. ❤😊
Thank you so much for watching. Style Arc is good as long as you read the instructions carefully. If your really new, they probably aren't a great start but if you have a few makes under your belt, I think you could do it. The more recent patterns are easier. I'd choose a simple project to start off with. I hope you have a great weekend and a chance to sew.❤❤
I've made several Pattern Emporium Take a Chance shirt dresses. Loads of different sleeve options, excellant instructions and you don't need to add tiers at all if you don't want too. I had limited fabric for one dress and didn't do tiers at all and it is lovely. I really recommend giving the pattern a go!
It looks like a great pattern. Kate looks great in everything. Thanks for letting me know how it went for you. Have a great weekend ❤
Love the plain green for the Palmer and I also have the PE shirt dress on my raider as well, had the pattern for a while and you have inspired me to get moving on it. 😊
Oh I hope you get the Palmer dress made up. I'm so looking forward to getting it made too. They look good on every one. Thanks so much for watching ❤
Hi Katrina, loved your vlog this week. Denim appears to be a trend OS for autumn/winter, so not surprised we still seeing it here. which denim skirt should you make? Make what YOU want to wear, what speaks to you. Try not be overly influenced by what RTW designers etc say you should be wearing. You do you (cos I think you do it well!). definitely make up the fabric your husband bought you. It's beautiful and work beautifully next to you. I have SA the palmer shirt dress pattern as well as Streat dress from the Sussex seamstress. Have been looking at both but think I am going to make the Streat at this point. in time. Can you give a number to each item (say 1-5) 1. being low and highest. That may help you narrow it down a bit? Take care and see you next vlog😎
Thank you. I love the faith you have in me. I think fashion trends are a good guide to what's out there but I definitely don't believe in wearing them if it's not in line with my personality. I also don't want to look too trendy. I think that's a teenage thing. Looking fresh and well presented is more my goal. Also comfort. Thank you so much for spending time with me again today. I always look forward to chatting with you.❤❤
I really enjoyed this plans video. I also have heaps of plans, but not much time!
The Hudson pants are a great tracksuit pant pattern. I have made 4 long pairs, plus 1 short pair for myself, as well as a number of pairs for both of my daughters.
The denim you are using for your skirt is lovely. I used that denim to make a Friday Pattern Co Bernadette Skirt. This is also a great skirt pattern that you might like - coming from a similar age sewist with possibly similar body size issues.
My suggestion is to make the Tommie Skirt! It is a classic ageless style. I made one recently and have already worn it heaps.
Don't be afraid to make the Jenna shirt it white. It will look fantastic! However it would also look great in the purple.
The Zalia dress will look wonderful in that linen. The fabric is gorgeous. It may not be a priority sew, but sometimes you just have to make something just for the joy of it.
With the shirt dress patterns if you don't want to do the gathers you could always lengthen the first tier. I am planning on doing that with the PE Take a Chance.
The ITS Comillas dress would look fantastic in that beautiful fabric.
And finally, I also sew in my head much faster that I do in reality!
😆I love how you think. If only we sew faster. I love all your suggestions. I'm looking forward to getting these dresses made so I can move on to my every day clothing. Thank you so much for watching ❤
Great vlog! Thank you!❤
You are so welcome!
I made the Tommie in a rigid denim and it worked well. I actually emailed Stylearc and asked if it was only suitable for stretch denim and they said either is suitable. Denim is going to be popular for a good while. I'm seeing lots of denim dresses, shirts and skirts with gathers (which don't suit me). You could always use a gored skirt pattern to emulate the denim skirts you're seeing.
Thank you for your suggestions. I am really enjoying all this denim. It would be good if I could use a denim from my stash. Thank you so much for passing this info on. Thank you so much for watching and chatting ❤ ♥
Always leave housework!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣Best advice ever! ❤❤
Every time you say your age I'm shocked, no matter how often I hear you say it. In my mind you are at least 10 years younger than you say that you are. You seem just the same age as my son and daughter in law. But looking young is something you will appreciate in the years to come anyway. Lol.
I think you really need the Clo Bias skirt. I've heard of it but never really had my interest piqued until now and I selfishly really want to see it made up by you. Lol.
That's is so kind. Thank you. I really want to make the Clo skirt too. I've made good progress on my current project. Hopefully I can sneak it in. Thank you for stopping by again. I hope you have a great week.
