That housecoat is just adorable. It looks like something my Mom would have made for me. I really love this channel because it has made me realise all the loving work that went into the clothes that my Mom sewed for myself and my sister and our Barbie dolls.
I Agree! Mom sewed similar clothing for my sister and I…my favorite with the adorable babydoll pjs she’d make for us too wear during the hot summer months - typically in gingham or seersucker. I so love this channel! And you are correct…I never realized, until I began sewing, how much skill and effort it took for my Mom to create these wonderful clothes for me.
My grandmother sewed most of my sisters and my clothes. I never realized how beautifully made until after she passed, and I was making my own clothes or buyng when I had the money. My mom was also a great seamstress, but also worked full time. The only problem was when my grandma sewed us matching clothes..how embarrassing!
I had a quilted housecoat/bathrobe when I was a little girl . It had an eye lit collar trimming …. In the 70’s we always had to walk around in housecoat and slippers
I'm 7 months pregnant, and your description of how practical your housecoat was makes me think i definitely need one too! Simple and stylish are music to my ears. I'll have to see if i can find this pattern or a similar one.
CONGRATS🥹💕❤️❤️. No lie the long version of this housecoat was the very last thing I made before going into labor then it sat on the dress form until I came home. It was the first thing I put on and I wore it nonstop for months I can’t recommend a flattering/ convenient housecoat enough. It’s practical but you still feel beautiful.
Love that! I never thought about the difference between housecoat vs robe! You are so right! I also like your tip on cutting the pieces as you need them. If you have to pause sewing you don't have to figure out what to do with the pieces and not get pattern messed up, etc. TFS!! 💜
Your housecoat is so sweet. My mom used to wear housecoats and house dresses and always looked put together. The white eyelet dress is gorgeous as well. The photo of your wearing it was beautiful and you looked like a model.
Thank you so much! House coats and dresses are so nice. They are my single favorite thing to wear around the house. I do wish we could still buy pretty boudoir shoes with the small heels on them
I just love your videos! Oh my goodness, my mother had the housecoat on the right, light blue, long, "shiny" glass buttons, little collar lined with small lace. Mid-sixties, I remember her wearing it up to the mid-seventies! 💙
Wow, great job! As a long-time seamstress, I would have been terrified of that fabric, you really made it sing. Also kudos to you for learning how to use your attachments, they really do make the job easier when you use them. The buttons were perfect and the daisies look really cute. Thanks for the video.
I love this little housecoat; I especially like the way you decided to do the hem! Even as a slow-stitcher myself I do find there are times when the slow-stitching can be a little tedious!
Thank you so much! Yes I would rather be out with the kids and doing summer projects outside. This is the first year that I’ve made videos over the summer and I realized it’s because I don’t usually do bigger projects.
Gosh, that is the cutest housecoat ever! I love that lace detail, and the ribbon belt, and that floral hem is just perfect! You are so slender, it must be like making beautiful doll clothes for yourself.
Ohhhh my goodness that daisy stitch is so precious!!! 🙌🙌🙌✨💞🙌 making me wanna get my sewing machine out girl you do not play around!?! 😅😊 SO inspiring! Love your style soo muchhhhh!
You made something that i did not think was pretty very pretty it suits you the eyelet trim made it special. Thank you so very much for sharing and inspiring..
Just rewatched this - one of my favorite of your creations...however, I like all your creations! I love these colors and the cheeriness of the print - such a nice summer housecoat.
It turned out so cute! Love the fabric choice! I need to make a couple of these. I have a 2 month old, and need some nursing-friendly clothes that arent baggy t-shirts. ;)
I’m in my 70’s, I remember many of the pattern clothing styles. You are so pretty, these clothes look so stylish on you. You have such good taste. I love your channel.
My Sears Kenmore when I found it came not only pristine and ready-to-use but I also came with all the tools and extra attachment isn't that wonderful that even includes the original instructions in perfect condition and extra needles for the machine and a few bobbins what I like about that is it came with a ribbon maker a bias binding foot and things that I wish modern machines would come with
Yesterday I got the butterick 4790 I ordered it from Amazon I know it's the remake of that particular pattern but I like the style of it and I like the fact that they made it not just for your body size but also for bigger women like myself
Hahaha thank you so much I am seriously considering getting coffee from a drive thru in it. My husband always says nobody would know my housecoats aren’t dresses.
Thank you! I was thinking the same thing! One of my favorite things about vintage Barbie is that she had all the pastels at her disposal and not just pink.
Too funny. Just checked my stash & I own that exact pattern. Simplicity 5726, size 10! (My grandmother was a dressmaker & seamstress. I was fortunate to inherit many of her patterns, some dating back to the early 1900s.)
The floral pattern on the hemstitching makes me think of a pinafore I had when I was a girl. Can't remember if it was made by Mom or Grandma, used a wheel/gear that stitched little ducks. 🦆
@@SewRena her sewing machine is in my spare bedroom at the moment, but I think any attachment like that is probably packed up pending her moving back into her home when the remodel is finished.
You mentioned that you hadn't seen a housedress-specific pattern. Cris Wood Sews has the Casita Dress, which is inspired/based on the Mexican housedresses in her Latina heritage. It would look really cute with some embroidery. Folkwear Patterns also has the Mumu pattern which would work similarly, and it comes with an explanation of the history behind Mumus. I remember my Great Aunt Sandy wore Mumus whenever she was home for the day; I think she even passed away wearing one, but I could be wrong about that detail.
That housecoat is just adorable. It looks like something my Mom would have made for me. I really love this channel because it has made me realise all the loving work that went into the clothes that my Mom sewed for myself and my sister and our Barbie dolls.
Awww thank you so much and I’m so glad it’s keeping those memories at the forefront of your mind 🥹💕❤️

That is so cute 🥰 it’s demure but a little sexy too and oh so practical and useful. I think I need one or possibly two in my life ❤

This is so pretty! The fabric is so "happy", I think it is a requirement that you must smile when seeing it. It looks amazing on you!
Thank you so much 🥰 this wasn’t even the fabric I sent my husband to the store for but when he showed it to me I instantly wanted it.
You have inspired me to set up my sewing machine. I used to make everything and I miss it so much. Love your videos.
Me too! Happy sewing 😊
Just found your page lastnight. I'm hooked. Thank you for tge inspiration... 🎉🎉 You are like a breath of fresh air. 🎶🎶🎶🍷
Thank you.
Awww welcome so glad to have you 💕🤗🤗
Granny/Auntie/Uncle time are some of my favorite memories. I may be a little spoiled. Very cute house coat.
Hahaha my kids were absolutely spoiled in the best way possible. Thank you so much.
It turned out really nice. I love the decorative stitch at the bottom and the lace trim.
Thank you so much 🥰🥰

I absolutely ADORE your fabric selections! This housecoat is fantastic!

Ohh that sounds so so pretty 😍 thank you so much love 🥰🥰
My mother made my sister and I the red version as children in pink. I still have the picture of the three of us wearing them. 😊

Thank you for bringing back that wonderful garment, the beloved housecoat. Yours is adorable!
I have two quilted house coats from the 70’s. So cosy
Beautiful housecoat when I was little I love to wear a housecoat and nightgown and slippers thanks for sharing
Super fun house coat. Vintage patterns are such great fun to see come back in style. Your channel is going in a great direction. Keep inspiring.
Wow I was born in 65 it brought memories and tears to my eyes because my grandmother and aunts had the same patterns😢 Thanks for the Memories❤
Omg the aspic pattern weights are DARLING
Gosh, that is the cutest housecoat ever! I love that lace detail, and the ribbon belt, and that floral hem is just perfect! You are so slender, it must be like making beautiful doll clothes for yourself.
That’s so cute! The fabric pattern is so bright & cheerful too
Ohhhh my goodness that daisy stitch is so precious!!! 🙌🙌🙌✨💞🙌 making me wanna get my sewing machine out girl you do not play around!?! 😅😊 SO inspiring! Love your style soo muchhhhh!
You made something that i did not think was pretty very pretty it suits you the eyelet trim made it special. Thank you so very much for sharing and inspiring..
Thank you so much 🥰 fabric choice makes the difference for sure. This bright and happy Daisy print would make anything cute.
Just rewatched this - one of my favorite of your creations...however, I like all your creations! I love these colors and the cheeriness of the print - such a nice summer housecoat.
Great use of decorative stitch. I’m definitely going to have to sink that one into my brain for future retrieval 💙👍🏻
So adorable I love the bright colors.
It turned out so cute! That daisy stitch was perfect!
Thank you so much I want to start using more decorate top stitches for the kids and my lounge clothes there is so much to choose from
The house coat is so cute! Thank you for sharing the process.
Ooh I love this! I love feeling cute and put together in the house. You look beautiful in this!
It turned out so cute! Love the fabric choice! I need to make a couple of these. I have a 2 month old, and need some nursing-friendly clothes that arent baggy t-shirts. ;)
Very cute! Glad you had some time for yourselves for a weekend ❤
I love the way you style it all, so pretty! Love that coat, so cozy ❤
I have been looking for this exact thing. You've always got it, Sewrena!! 💖💖💖
Absolutely fabulous, too too cute!!!🥰
I love how this came out! Great for summer.
Another successful project - LOVE that fabric.
Thank you so much 🥰🥰 the fabric was so fun 😍
I’m in my 70’s, I remember many of the pattern clothing styles. You are so pretty, these clothes look so stylish on you. You have such good taste. I love your channel.
This was so fun to watch and your housecoat came out so cute! Love the oversized buttons!
Thank you 🥰! I needed a quick win with this project.
Tbh, that looks more like a dress than a robe! It came out sew pretty! ❤😂
Awww thank you 🥰 perfect for the days you want to look cute but don’t want to get dressed
Love love love the decorative stitching.
I really like how you explain things ❤
I love those colors!

Adorable! Love the fabric combo!
Very cute ! Love the fabric!
Love it ❤ I think my mother had something like that in the 1070s, but it was all pink.
So cute! Love the daisy hem!
You're so adorable and talented.
Very cute.
What a lovely pattern and cut, it looks so pretty on you 🌼 I need 10!!!
Thank you 🥰🥰 you could probably get 10 made up in no time. Against my better judgement I might make it in a heavier fabric like a quilted cotton 😂
SEW cute! I'm ordering this pattern now (brand new subscriber- love the channel, love you, love your content). Thank you for sharing!!!!
You’re wall paper is awesome
Beautiful housecoat
Yesterday I got the butterick 4790 I ordered it from Amazon I know it's the remake of that particular pattern but I like the style of it and I like the fact that they made it not just for your body size but also for bigger women like myself
I leaned how to sew on that machine. I would have to wear that house coat out to go shopping, etc. Much too cute to just be used around the house.
Hahaha thank you so much I am seriously considering getting coffee from a drive thru in it. My husband always says nobody would know my housecoats aren’t dresses.
Beautiful ❤️
Thank you 🥰
Have you seen the movie " Mrs. Harris goes to Paris. If you haven't, you will love it. Everything in it is vintage. Blessings to you!
Very mod Barbie! I love it
Thank you! I was thinking the same thing! One of my favorite things about vintage Barbie is that she had all the pastels at her disposal and not just pink.
@@SewRena I agree. It's like the 80s hit and they went Ummm? Girls like pink right???
Housecoat? That's a darling summer dress if ever there was one.
This looks amazing!
Gorgeous
Lovely, thank you 🎉❤
Love this! also you hair looks amazing!!
Thank you 🥰🥰
Great video.

That’s so cool will you make it? I love mine

So cuteee
I just love the vintage fabrics that you use when making your garments. Do you find them online?!
Yes online or in store. I buy whatever catches my eye I have only bought true vintage fabric once and I still haven’t used it yet

That is so damn cute ✨
Fabulous x
This is so cute I love this fabric, also this childless person hermits all weekend lol
Thank you. We were probably out more than childless ppl we only came home to sleep 😅
Suddenly I feel the urge to sew a whole bunch of housecoats 😅
Make them all they are useful and comfortable
I have this pattern and am currently working on view 1 :D
Sewrena, I just saw your video for the "Tulip Farm" dress. What brand is that fabric? Did you get that fabric online or at Joann's?
I like the fabric. Where did you find it.
Thank you Joann
Where do you get your vintage patterns?
You are a beautiful person and great seamstress.
Thank you so much 🥰💕
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I’ve been look for a pattern for a dressing gown and can’t find one
Have you tried backroomfinds.com? Etsy and eBay is a good place too
Super cool look and skill ..
Very cute.
