    That was like watching a baseball game where the first 3 pitches were all home runs. Absolutely stunning results.

    THE DRESS!!! 🤩🤩🤩 Sorry, Calvin, but that is totally what that dress is meant to be! Looks amazing on you, with and without the godets. And the top is so cute as well! What a great summer staple, plus probably cute under a cropped cardigan. Great flips, Casey! Now I want to go thrifting…

    • @PatternScout
      @PatternScout  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you!!! So happy I went for it. Now I need somewhere to wear it! haha. These flips made me want to flip more items that I have in my mend pile! That tank would be so cute layered, too!

      Loved this video. Now, I see what I could have done with those dresses that I gave to charity. Oh well, doesn’t matter. Someone will like them as is. Now, to redo a large baggy linen blouse into something I can wear. It was a clearance sale. Beautiful fabric.
      Edit: I like all your re-dos. They suit you much better.

    OMG the Freeze of Self-Doubt is so real! I love how the CK dress turned out. The pattern, a sort of "winter" floral with its black background, looks really nice with your skin tone and dark hair. P.S. The platform Tevas are the move, for sure!

    • @PatternScout

    Not to mention your architect-like strategies that really set your channel apart.
    I only occasionally sew or do alterations, but your channel gives a lot of style inspo as well! You really got it all 💕

    I loved all of them. You fixed those jeans quite proper. You are the only other person I have ever seen try stuff on inside out to pin it to perfection before sewing it, besides myself. Very well done. 😃

    • @PatternScout
      @PatternScout  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you! Sewing is definitely a super power! And adding the side panels...I've had to do that at least a handful of times to make something work, haha.

    Awesome! I'm 5' tall and getting ready to tear (literally) into my wardrobe. Everything I buy is too big so this should be fun. Thanks for the educational tutorial.

  • @awishtostitch1543
    @awishtostitch1543 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Wow!!! All of these flips are so impressive - you can't even tell the jeans have been altered, the burgundy dress looks like it was always meant to be a cropped peplum top, and the CK dress! 😍😍😍 It suits you SO well - the style and the colours - what an amazing find!
    And I loved the bit where you froze - so much of my sewing process involves me freezing while I try to think about what I'm doing and if I'm doing it right etc 🤣👍

    I especially loved the dress flip. It's given me inspiration for a similar shaped dress where I've cut the bodice off but am stumped how to proceed. I hadn't thought of gathering the top, I was too focussed on the skirt! 🙂

    • @PatternScout

    @varieta9466 ปีที่แล้ว

    I love to sew and love to repurpose stuff. The flowery fabric reminded me of a DOLCE & GABBANA dress I saw, which was ruched on the sides all the way down. Form fitting but the ruching makes it seem less tight…. Haha. Your redo looks very pretty! I would do a slit on the sides of the maxi dress just for movability. Leaving it maxi adds versatility to your wardrobe!! Lots of very casual “every day” maxis out there! You do such a great job!! Bravo! Consider doing a lil modeling on the side! ❤️👵🏻

    • @PatternScout
      @PatternScout  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks so much! If I leave it long, I may need to add the slit for movability like you mentioned. Appreciate your kinds words! :)

    I'm new to your channel and love what I have seen. I'm an experienced sewer and I appreciate how you share your "mistakes" and how you showed how you have corrected your errors.
    I'm 76 and don't need much for myself, but my younger friends who still have many events to attend will benefit from thrifting and redesigning and I would be very happy to help them all.
    I'm subscribing just because you have a great way of encouraging and teaching.

    New to your channel and Subscribed today! Exactly the content I was looking for, finding a piece you love, and making it work. I recently started wearing my "dressier" clothes because I got tired of never wearing them. You can keep your maxi dress or any dress casual with your comfort sandals or a pair of sneakers. I also pair my dressy tops with jeans or a jean skirt and casual shoes. I have a trunk full of thrift flips that I work on as time allows. Thanks again, and keep creating!
