Karina, your workmanship is always exquisite. Thank you so much for all the time and hard work you put into your channel. I’ve been sewing for almost 50 years and the learning never stops. You are my favorite TH-cam sewing channel!
Hi from Montreal! I love what you do and I've been watching all your videos since the very beginning. I'm learning a lot and I appreciate all the time you invest in your presentations. Sincere congratulations for your work and your confections.
Karina, Thank you, you make everything less scary. You explain everything very clearly. You have amazing sewing knowledge. Love the linen series.love watching you.
Thanks Karina! This is a suburb video. Your Poppy pants have got to be my all time favorite pants by a sewist on You Tube! I love that fabric, and how they are on you. As always, so inspirational.
Gorgeous makes, and so many fabulous Love Notions Patterns! The Allegro is so versatile! I wish they would update the Glissando pattern with the zip fly front included. Thank you for this inspiring and educational series.
This series has been so inspirational. You're passing on so much sewing knowledge and experience and I'm so grateful to you for your time and effort. Thanks again Karina! xx
Wow! Soooo awesome. Perfect timing with the linen sales and I love linen! Your sewing is so exquisitely executed. Good thing I buy muslin by the bolt! My Toiles(muslins) for tops often wind up getting worn. I also like to embroider on them. The pants usually only make it to shorts for the body fit. That’s a fun one. I am basically shaped like a lumpy pear. Hah! I learn and relearn so much from you. Thank you so very much! I take notes when your TH-cam channel is teaching this older woman more and more. Thank you!
Always learn something fun when watching your videos ~ Thank you! But, when you use the term “medium weight fabric” , could you possibly also include the weight per yard? Sometimes it’s hard to know exactly what “light/medium/heavy” translate into on a fabric.
Karina you always inspire and get me exciting about my next sewing project with your videos! Can't wait to see your Nellie Joggers as they are at the top of my list for sewing projects this summer. Thank you for all the time you put into your videos and sharing all your tips and tricks as they have made it so much easier to get back into sewing.
I love all of these pants. But my favourites are the summer caye. I’ve already got the pattern but not used it yet so I’m going to order some linen and get started xxx
What a brilliant run through of trouser patterns suitable for linen! I salute you, Karina!🙏 I am glad you mentioned the True Bias Emerson pants as to my mind they are the perfect wide leg trousers - the little pleats are great for my shape, and the combination of flat front with curved waistband and elasticated back is just so comfortable 😊 I have made one pair in pure linen and numerous pairs in cotton. You might also consider a linen-cotton blend as well as linen-rayon? I have found that works well for trousers too. Thanks for being so thorough as always x
🤔 I wonder if there are any linen-rayon-spandex blends out there. I’ve become addicted to stretch fabrics, especially for pants. LOVE your videos Karina! Thanks so much 😍
Fabulous video. There is so much inspiration here, I need to rewatch and make some notes. Thank you so much for doing these videos on linen, I have some turquoise linen blend bought for trousers, I just can't make up my mind which ones. I also love that you made matching jackets for some of them.
Fabulous video. I really appreciate all the info you shared and seeing all the pants on is so helpful. I am currently watching your videos to help me fit Pietra pants. I have too much crotch volume and rise lenght in the front and not enough rise length in the back. Fingers crossed that I can figure it out!
Hi Karina , another interesting video . Love ALL yr makes Especially yr Poppy Pants ❤️. If I want to leave out the curved pockets , would this mess up the style ?
This video was incredibly informative. Thank you! I don’t know if you’ll have time to answer this question but do you think it would be possible to use the Love Notions Summer Caye waist band on the Allegro pattern? I like the slimmer legs on the Allegro but always do a half tuck on my blouses/t-shirts so I’d prefer the flat front waist band of the Summer Caye. ThankYou again for such an informative video.
I also found (after I had made them) that the rise on them did not fit correctly and that I needed to reduce it but I think after all of that I did not feel like going through it! So not sure if I will ever make them again.
Hello Karina, I need help I remember from watching your videos, you mentioned that you are in Brazil. I moved to Brazil São Paulo last week, I'm struggling to find any sewing supplies store near me. Everything on Google is far from me 2-3 hours travel. Can you Please recommend me if you know any. I'm in Avenida Paulista street. Thank you
There’s a road called Joli and that’s where all the fabric shops are. I’ve never been there. Email me and I can send you links to online fabric shops that are great.
Karina, your workmanship is always exquisite. Thank you so much for all the time and hard work you put into your channel. I’ve been sewing for almost 50 years and the learning never stops. You are my favorite TH-cam sewing channel!
I thank you all the time for the yoga waistband instructions. It has made a huge difference in my life.
Also meant to say - fantastic pants and thank you for all of your sewing techniques and tips,
Your love of sewing is contagious! Thank you for taking the time to talk through each make. Love your channel.

Beautifully fitting pants.
Thank you :)
It's so helpful to see you modeling each of the different styles and inspirational to see your creative hacks. Thank-you!
Gorgeous pants!
Karina, Thank you, you make everything less scary. You explain everything very clearly. You have amazing sewing knowledge. Love the linen series.love watching you.
Pleats look better when the pocket reaches towards the center front seam. Woven fabric flattens the belly area, and the pleats shine.
Beautiful sewing!

Love watching your videos so many good tips really appreciate your time you are wonderful sewist
I love your flowery linen pants. I can only find plain linen or linen blends in Joann's. Haven't been to the bigger fabric stores for a while though.
This series has been so inspirational. You're passing on so much sewing knowledge and experience and I'm so grateful to you for your time and effort. Thanks again Karina! xx
You are so good at details,and I’m grateful for your experienced judgment. Great respect.

I use pockets and like them in everything. Love your videos. From the US
thanks for all the tips, and inspiration!
I can’t wait to try some of these patterns. Thank you for sharing so much with us.
I'm really enjoying this series. Thanks, Karina!
This WAS SO HELPFUL! I always love how detailed your videos are and informative and helpful1 Thank you!
Karina, This video is so helpful. Thank you.

Always learn something fun when watching your videos ~ Thank you! But, when you use the term “medium weight fabric” , could you possibly also include the weight per yard? Sometimes it’s hard to know exactly what “light/medium/heavy” translate into on a fabric.
If you look at this video about linen, I mention that in detail and with examples and weights per yard: th-cam.com/video/DffsrL3waYc/w-d-xo.html
Thanks so much. Great information.
Loving this Linen series!! Great info!!

Love this video and will go back over again a few times. 😊 Thank you Debby
Love your videos!
I love all of these pants. Especially the cream ones. And I love the two green tops you wore. I am going to look into getting the Summer Caye pattern.
Thanks!
Love seeing your projects! And your tips and pattern reviews are very helpful! Thank you!

I looked online and did find a few of these stretch linens.
Fabulous video. There is so much inspiration here, I need to rewatch and make some notes. Thank you so much for doing these videos on linen, I have some turquoise linen blend bought for trousers, I just can't make up my mind which ones. I also love that you made matching jackets for some of them.
Superb!
Wow I have much to learn
Thanks sooo much for sharing your knowledge! Loved all of them!❤️❤️❤️

I have too much crotch volume and rise lenght in the front and not enough rise length in the back. Fingers crossed that I can figure it out!
Check out my video on how to adjust the crotch length. I show all the scenarios.
Hi Karina , another interesting video . Love ALL yr makes Especially yr Poppy Pants ❤️. If I want to leave out the curved pockets , would this mess up the style ?
The original has the slanted pockets. You can sew them without pockets too.
This video was incredibly informative. Thank you!

I like the slimmer legs on the Allegro but always do a half tuck on my blouses/t-shirts so I’d prefer the flat front waist band of the Summer Caye. ThankYou again for such an informative video.
do you find that the linen/rayon fabric stretches much with wear (crotch seam/knees)? I know 100% linen is known for doing that. thanks!
Yes it will. But once washed it’s back to normal.
Linen 💕💕
I also found (after I had made them) that the rise on them did not fit correctly and that I needed to reduce it but I think after all of that I did not feel like going through it! So not sure if I will ever make them again.
What type of material did you use as a muslin?
I buy cheap polyester curtain fabric for testing pant patterns :) it’s got zero give and stretch.
@@LiftingPinsandNeedles Thank you so much for your response. Really love the videos!
