Karina of Lifting Pins & Needles has fabulously simple and very well explained videos on increasing front and back rise and she shows grading of pattern using all the pattern pieces which is so simple …. I’m sure you’ll be impressed

[@SewHayleyJane]

Oooh thank you so much I'll check that out!

[@SistasofStitchcraft]

Beautiful makes. Love your honesty 🤩🤩

[@SewHayleyJane]

Thank you!

You might like to look at the Upland Trousers by Itch to Stitch. I'm plus sized and the pair I made fitted me perfectly, rise and all, with no alterations. I am planning on making another pair with the green fabric which was in your box with the Tilly and the Buttons pants pattern. It's winter here in New Zealand so the green will make a lovely spring colour. Take care.

Oooh thank you, I've never made any Itch to Stitch patterns so will be good to try out something new!

Thanks for sharing Hayley and well done for persevering with the Hughes dress. 💙🧶🌈🍓

[@SewHayleyJane]

Hehe, thank you! Worth the effort in the end!

Have you seen the Chalk and Notch Isle trousers/jeans? You may be able to get a better fit more easily with the Isle because the waist has darts you can adjust and no waistband. Also, the front has patch pockets so easier to grade. I have made two pairs and the instructions are great!

[@SewHayleyJane]

Amazing, thank you I'll take a look! they sound great

[@madebykarenmarie]

Lovely inspirational video, as always ❤

[@SewHayleyJane]

Thank you!

[@bridgetwhite5547]

Hi Hayley, love all those makes. Thank you😊

[@SewHayleyJane]

Thank you so much!

I saw a vlog that Rachel from stitched up did on the hungry bum and I think that was the Thea shorts x

[@SewHayleyJane]

Amazing I'll check it out

Hi, all beautiful makes - in particular the blue cloud t shirt and that fabulous dress. I am planning to sew up a few dresses for our summer later on this year. I find it easier to eliminate the pockets when sewing up a new trouser pattern - and then once I am happy with the fit, I reintroduce the pockets. So good luck with your next trouser project. A tried and true trouser pattern is just pure gold. Happy sewing. 🌸

[@SewHayleyJane]

Thank you so much! yes I'm definitely going to do that in the future!

I found this so helpful as I am also plus size. The soi tee shirt looks stunning on you.The cut is so flattering on you and I love the sleeve length. The blue dress looked lovely on you.If you decide to make it again you could always place the pattern pieces on top of the made dress to help remind you of how you altered it. I remember you starting your business,many years ago,before others.I am so pleased to see how you have developed and grown.

[@SewHayleyJane]

Oh thank you so much Maureen for such a lovely comment!! I really appreciate that.

[@carolinegilham2102]

I tried the Hughes dress and although I fitted into one their standard measurements it was still a disaster! Instead I have found the Shelby dress absolutely perfect 👌

[@SewHayleyJane]

The Shelby is definitely on my to make list!!

[@joyjackman6017]

by the way, love my subscription box every month, thank you 🐾🐾

[@SewHayleyJane]

So pleased, thank you so much!

[@joyjackman6017]

still trying to decide which sizes of the Hughes dress I need for which bits of me! wish me luck! 🐾🐾

[@SewHayleyJane]

Haha, good luck! it is worth it if you can work it out!

[@dianemontavon5670]

I would love to order your boxes but I live in the US and I'm not sure of shipping costs. Would you tell me the cost of the Classic box with shipping to US?

[@SewHayleyJane]

Of course, it’s £40 for a Classic box and an extra £17.50 for tracked international shipping. It’ll change a little each time depending on the exchange rate - currently that equals $72.74

[@dianemontavon5670]

@@SewHayleyJane Thank you for the information.
