    Been on vacation and as soon as I got back I laid on the couch and looked for your video. I’m so lucky to see you sewing one of the patterns I have. Now I’m 70 and I’m making this dress and wearing it. I don’t care that I’m showing some skin. If you don’t like don’t look. As to flappy arms my great niece (she’s ten) says to me that I’m going to need those wings when I get to heaven. I like her point of view! 🤣

    It's so pretty! Just sew an invisible (clear plastic) snap along an inner edge of the ties to close them across the middle, or not lol. I love how you make the patterns your own. "'I'm not doing that" is becoming my mantra"!!

    I think it is the perfect gardening dress! (You had me at pockets) 😂 The opening in the front will definitely give you some ventilation and since you don’t wear a bra with it… well that is one less sweaty bra to wash!

    I like your new dress.
    You can easily construct and sew a removable piece of fabric and place it in the area below your chest to block the exposure, using velcro or snaps.
    It is a pretty dress and you will increase your vitamin d.
    It looks nice on you and you will Tan nicely 😊. Good for you. I live on the west coast a few miles from the beach and it's in the 60's during the day. Not sun dress weather for me

    Brava! Being of a similar age and build, I understand the shyness... but I decided (once I retired) I no longer cared when around the house. I have several lightweight sweaters and camp shirts that I throw on over sundresses if I feel like I need a little more coverage. :)

    Beautiful dress n it looks lovely... I myself would be just as pale... lol... n the opening would be a no go... right away I thought rulo loops n lacing... then... your pocket lace sewnin a triangle insert... buttoned from the inside to help secure the placket top... please enjoy your dress n you are beautiful in it...

    I like the sun dress but as you get older those peekaboo don’t work for older woman’s. I am glad you made that pattern. I did not realize how big the peekaboo hole was. I don’t think I would be making that view. I would be put my hands over that big gap all day long my confidence would be shot to glory😂😂😂

    You look perfectly cute in that dress. I understand the side boob concern, but you have a flat tummy and your arms have nothing wrong with them, so show them off and be happy about it. It will feel wonderful to wear that dress on a hot day in the summer.

    This is a really cute sundress. I don't know if I could ever have worn it and at 74 I know I couldn't now! I wonder if the two bodices could be combined to get a smaller peek-a-boo and still keep the bow and gathers at the bust. Hmmmm. I'm thinking of my older granddaughters, though, not myself!

  • @normacooper6377
    @normacooper6377 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I love the fabric of this one! Soooo pretty & looks cool enough for hot weather wear. Also, probably not as bad to show the garden dirt as a light colored one would be. I second the slathering on of sunscreen, especially on that front central opening as that’s a really bad place for sunburn-never mind how I know.🤦 If you added a little bit of a cotton lace panel there you’d probably be safer, but the sports bra idea is a good enough solution for around the farm, especially in case someone (UPS or others) show up unexpectedly. 🤣 Thanks for sharing your lovely make🎉

    @lumindina699 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I hope this becomes the favorite of dresses from your husbands aspect! I added in two spots right below the tie elastic string and small buttons on mine and that helped me to feel better when bending over or turning as it pulls the fabric closer to my skin right below the breasts. If I could find a matching bikini top to wear as a bralette I will wear that under it if I go out to the beach or someplace like Adventure Island. Enjoy the summer breezes this year! It looks great on you!

    What a cute dress...i have to admit, you TOTALLY surprised me with that view you choose... When you first showed the pattern, I expected you to choose the full coverage top. I'm proud of you for stepping out of your comfort zone & like you said... For around the house/yard, it'll be comfy & will help you get a little Vitamin D exposure. (LOL 😆)!!!
    Glad to have you back & that You're feeling better!

      That dress is nice but I would take the top off and make a plain bodice with cap sleeves maybe. You did a great job it’s just not your style. You were uncomfortable wearing it, if I’m wrong sorry.

    The line art lied a bit, it looked more closed up than the end result was. Still lovely though!

  • @meganmills6545
    @meganmills6545 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Well - it's official - there's nothing the least bit unpleasant or unsatisfactory about your arms or your midriff!! We really are much too critical of ourselves, I think - your skin looks great. I can understand the self-consciousness about the possible 'unplanned wardrobe malfunction' with a side view - but that's just because I'm a bit shy. :-) If you're self-conscious with just wearing it as it is perhaps you could get around it by wearing a bright purple bra and letting the straps show - or even cover the straps with the same fabric - then it would just look like it's part of the dress design? Great dress for popping over a bathing suit too...
