Just seeing your joy when your ideas work out as planned is worth every second of watching your vlogs.
Amazing! Can’t wait to make multi colors of cardis
What a superb job you have done Karina you are so clever.😘
Thank you so much 😊
Really interesting, and inspiring. I would not have thought the change to make a cardigan would be so simple, and I loved your tip about the front waist on the dress pattern.
Super lovely! I love both pieces! Great Job Karina!
Thanks so much! 😊
You are so clever and inspiring. Thank you.
So nice of you
The dress looks fabulous on you! Great job. So creative!
What fun and joy! And beautiful gorgeous outfits.
I've adapted a TNT t-shirt pattern into a waterfall cardigan and now I want to do a raglan cardigan and dress! Inspiring video. Thank you Karina!
The lace top you made is beautiful, I never would have thought to use that type of fabric. Nice job on the cardigan, you have such a good eye to see beyond the pattern.
The pattern makers are so lucky when you decide to play with their patterns--so many great (and tempting) ideas for us!
Thank you so much 😊. I truly enjoy this.
Nice makes. Very creative pattern hacks. Seeing you do them makes total sense. But would not have seen that cardigan in the pattern. Thank you to keep challenging us to take another look at patterns. 💕
Now you can make any top into a cardigan :)
What great ideas you come up with ☺️!! These turned out great! You've given me some ideas 😉
Go for it! The sky is the limit :)
Thank you for your vid. You are charming ...& your style is very flattering.
Great hack for this raglan sleeve T. Thanks.
It’s so much fun :)
Thanks for watching 😊.
Karina what a fantastic video as always! You give me so much inspiration but all I need now is time to make all the things. My head is buzzing! Thank you again for your generousity with your knowledge. You are my go to for any pattern changes I need. I live in the Netherlands and if ever I can help you get anything that you cannot find in Brazil I am more than happy to.
I'm so happy to inspire. what I do makes me so happy so I can't help but share.
Lovely as per usual. You are like a mannequin who looks good in anything!!😁
Aw Thank you 😊
Great hacks. Very inspiring. Thank you for sharing. Your enthusiasm is infectious🙂
I truly love sewing 🧵 and I guess is shows :)
Inspirational as always .great makes.stay safe😘
Thank you so much 😊
I love all the lace. You have such great ideas on changing things up!
Glad you like them! This is too fun for me :)
very clever hack, fantastic results xxx
Thank you so much 😊
Karina the two looks good together.Thank you.
Thank you so much 😊
I learn so much from you. Your videos show not only what and how you did things but the thinking behind getting your results. That's very helpful,
Thank you so very much Karina!
I’m so glad you like the vision I have for my channel :)
Love, love the dress! Looks great with the black cardi.
Please keep South Louisiana, USA, in prayer!
We are waiting for the 4th hurricane of the season.
As of right now it's heading straight to Morgan City where I live.......
Oh no! Are you ok? I’m keep you in my prayers.
We are okay, just waiting for the storm.
THANK you!
Love, love, love your first and final makes! You glow in them! Very cool and very relevant pieces! :) So happy for you with every step you take! :)
Thank you so much!!
I really love your explanations. I can follow them so good. Greetings from Germany!!
Love it
Thank you so much 😊
You are such a great inspiration! I've taken my sewing machine off of the shelf and completed some upcycling. Today I will complete the Peppermint Ruffle Sleeve Top. It's looking great and fits perfectly because I also did my first muslin! Thanks for all you do Karina!
Awesome! Muslins are so helpful.
yes, the 2nd dress reminds me of a versace print too. thanks for the inspiration as always
You’re very welcome 😉
Beautiful makes and I love the idea of using the elastic to get the waistline position. So simple but so clever. Xx
Can’t go wrong and out body can tell us so much :)
I just had to have the pattern after your video so I ordered it through your site. Can’t wait to try your hacks but just working my way through a Namaste nightgown first. I love all your videos.
All in due time. You'll love them :)
Love both your makes again Karina. What a handy cardi! When don't we need to have one of those?! I laughed when describing the fabric for your dress, "That Versace stuff" - you should be selling fabric honestly :))) and your dress also looks beautiful on you. What a great fit, nice flow to the skirt section and the whole dress just skims your body which I also think looks classy.
I'm not a huge follower of designers but Versace has such a distinct print style, I recognise it :) I love skimming type dresses. That makes them wearable and I don't feel self conscious.
Wonderful ideas, your creativity is amazing, never thought of making a cardigan from a tee shirt. I may have to add this pattern to my raglan collection, you can't have too many can you?
I think this is the only raglan pattern I have :)
Clever, clever, clever love these makes love the top you are wearing and the dress is so pretty. I would never have thought of making a lace top out of a normal top pattern what great idea, I ordered the Love Notions ladies tee shirt o my goodness just bought a printer never used one before I just do not have a clue how to get started it looks so complicated, so many instructions I think I’m to old to be doing this sort of thing. 🤓🤪
Susan Kidd where do you live Susan. If you live in the U.K. I can recommend a company that will print out an A0 paper version of the pattern that you can trace or cut out 😁👍
Lynne PRENTICE Thank you Lynne I live in Newcastle upon Tyne. Susan
Susan Kidd Here is the link. These are really good, reasonable and a speedy turnaround! www.google.co.uk/search?q=planprint24&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en-gb&client=safari. I use them all the time!
One step at a time. The Love Notions pattern support group is very helpful. As Lynne says, you can get patterns printed on large papers too and that's easier :)
I love this mash up! Could you have cut the skirt and top in one piece since the patterns matched up? I'm still learning about patterns.
I’d rather have the separate pieces for the shaping I need on the front of my body to accommodate the volume of my bust. Being one piece, that shaping can’t be done and the bust ends up pulling the dress up in the center front. That’s the reason a separate bodice is so much better.
Karina, I LOVE all of the garments you made using these hacks! I have to try all of them. Thank you so much for the ideas! Did you make the skirt that you’re wearing with the v-neck t-shirt? If you did, what pattern did you use? I love your channel so much!!!
The skirt is self drafted from my skirt block but can be made from the base of a pencil skirt. No pattern for it, but you can do it too! This is the video about it: th-cam.com/video/0VExH0x5ayg/w-d-xo.html
@@LiftingPinsandNeedles Ty so much! It looks perfect with the top that you paired it worth! Perfect length too for both the top and skirt!
Good evening Katina, I pray that you and your family are doing well. I love your 2nd dress that you made and yes the fabric looks like something that Versace would use to make one of his original designs with. One question I have for you. You raglan top you wore today - did you use the v-neck method that you learned a few months ago that you never seen or heard of before and make a video on? I have tried to find this video and have been unsuccessful in finding it, can you please help me? Like many, sometimes we have a hard time with v-neck bindings and you make it so look so easy and they turn out perfect. Your sewing techniques, ideas, and tips have given me the passion, inspiration, drive, and creativity to take my sewing to the next level and for this I want to thank you very much. Many of your videos I have watched several times as I get more information every time I watch them.
The V neckband on my raglan tee is the normal V neckband method for a knit top. The one you refer to is the tiny one on my stripe Rhapsody dress? I haven’t filmed it actually. That technique is fiddly and a tad more advanced. I’ve noticed that advanced techniques are not viewed much at all when I try to post them.
@@LiftingPinsandNeedles I wonder if people are put off because it looks or feels too difficult? I always find your videos helpful, whatever the subject, and explained in a really clear and simple way. I don't know if there's a way to get that sense (that it will be fun and not so scary) into the title and thumbnail? I may be off target, but just a thought. Thanks for all you do. x
@@EileenR11 it’s the fact that it’s a very specific technique that many people are not searching to sew. It’s too specific. A lot of viewers will most likely not watch a more advanced technique and I’ve proved that over and over.
Love the hack! Are y’all still in lockdown in Brazil?
Everyone is wearing masks and schools and churches are not open but otherwise people are living their lives. We still stay at home.
Nice ideas! For the cardigan, if I want to cross the bands and add a button, do you recommend to cut it larger than 10cm? Thanks.
You can make the band wider if you want.
