You look exceptional in the autumn colours patterned top you wore today and that’s probably why I think you look so good in your multi coloured suit. I’m looking forward to seeing more of your patterned makes.
LOVE the square neckline tee! Square necklines are my jam - somehow really flattering on my curvy figure. Thank you for mentioning this tee design - I had never even heard of this designer!
A) It is a good thing that you made the Eddystone jeans and modeled them for us, because they look like regular almost skinny jeans in the Itch to Stitch promo photo.Yours are what I want mine to look like B) the Wanted Tee you are wearing today is perfect in every way 😃 🇨🇦
That white boden skirt with buttons!!!!!! love it. Great looks, the bold colours are fabulous, I am never afraid of being bold...and beautiful, and neither are you xxxxx
@@TomKatStitchery I am thinking about buttons from the stash that are singles but around the same size so as to use them up. I have a few jars with my nana's buttons too😍😍😍
Lace tee? Yes please! I am so glad you suggested that Love Notions pattern for the lace tee. I Will do that for sure, lace is my total thing! I had an idea for the non-hem in addition to what you were going with. How about a galloon or scalloped edge, from a double border lace? You would have enough for the sleeve edges with a double cut if it. Some of them even have a bit of stretch, not necessary with your pattern choice, but still nice to have options. That is definitely what I’ll do. I just got a bunch of lace in new colors intending to do a couple of dresses with a nude under dress. I would love that anthro tee look with a nude body shaping cami. I think I’m going to make one right now. Yay!!
thank you . It was a lot of fun. Love the colors of what you were wearing on you. Still marvelling how the changes to the 'autumn' colors made to your whole look!!
Love these sew the look vlogs! Lovely ideas. Thank you. I’m currently making bags for scrubs and scrubs for our NHS. Once that’s done I shall be turning my mind to trend sewing! Diana
Like all especially the last picture with dark orange skirt and burnt orange top. I would go right out to the thrift stores and find this outfit, but they all closed🤔 I can wait to go out to eat again. Happy Easter ❤️
Good Morning from chilly Michigan. Spot on with the spring/summer looks. Looking forward to warmer weather and lighter fabric sews. I look forward to you vlogs every morning such a fun way to start the day.
Hi from England. I am 2 weeks behind watching your videos but I had to jump in with this one when I saw it in my inbox. Great, so much inspiration, thanks, love these types of videos.
Thanks, Whitney. I love the inspiration. I’m recreating an Anthropologie dress with a bright pink silk crepe I got from a friend. I chose the fabric because it was in my stash but how fun to find out I’ll be bang on trend!
For the stacked ruffle dress, you could use Mimi G's Simplicity 9114. But, hers is a maxi dress and buttoned up the front. Love to see the styles you're going to make! Thanks so much.
Love all these ideas Whitney - my favourite kind of video. Maybe you could use this as an idea for another sewalong, with a new hashtag? The last one was such fun.
Great video. Thanks Whitney :) Look forward to the tutorial on taking the shoulder pad ease out of patterns. I have a ton of 80s patterns. This will be invaluable!
Whitney, I love your videos! I have a pretty different style than you, but I’m always so inspired. You make it easy to imagine how each of us can take our personal styles and incorporate the same ideas into our sewing.
Great vid!! My favorites are the Camel pant with the yellow blouse and wrap-and the last one you showed-the camel or butterscotch jacket with the red skirt!! I do love camel with red! Very chic!! I have to get going on my own sewing-maybe soon...if not, I'll get to it later. These looks can also transition into fall-easily. Thank you for sharing!!:+) Have a great week!! (I'm behind, again)...
I really love the fabric of your wanted t. I also made the Wanted t but in a plain black. Yours has me envious. Watched your tshirt making series and really enjoyed following that.
Thank you! This wanted tee only happened because I had JUST enough fabric leftover from another project and I’m so glad I was able to eek it out! I’m so glad you enjoyed t-shirt week as well!
These are some fun looks! i like every one of the looks. I love the thought of wearing a shirtdress as a topper. I don’t wear dresses often, but I wear toppers a lot! My favorite look is probably the white top (probably because of the square neckline) and gathered skirt. It’s so beautiful! I’ve worn one of my wraps already this spring. It was surprisingly effective in keeping me warm!Also, the color blocked idea with analogous colors is amazing. Emily Hallman just made a very similar look. Thank you for the inspiration!!!! By the way, I don’t find you talk about your colors annoying. I like the reminders and I like to see how you adjust your mindset and habits. Color on!!!!
I agree your Tee and the colours in it suit you so perfectly! Thank you for another great video - I always love these when you take us through "street style" and what patterns are out there to recreate the look. I have to put in a plug here (no not sponsored at all!) for Cashmerette - the Montrose is perfect for the lace, top, tee underneath and she has a couple of shirt dress type patterns that are fabulous too. Her patterns always fit me SO perfectly :)
Great style picks. Having lived thru the 60s, I avoid anything mini, midi, maxi or flounced! Having said that, all these are adaptable to whatever one's style is. I must be in your colour palette (altho grey haired now!) as I love your colour choices.
I see some really beautiful fabric behind you in your colors!! Those Pietra (?) pants, if I am referencing the right one, would look great with the top you are wearing today. You know, I emailed the French woman about the Wanton top and she just never got back to me. It's up on the site for ordering, it said to email her for shipping to the U.S., but I've heard nothing. Any ideas? I really liked the patterns you picked out for Spring and Summer. I already have picked out some really flowy skirts and tops to sew up with my linen stash, which has become the predominant fabric I have. I have already made silk slips to go with them, a tank, a half slip and a full slip so I am covered in that department. Thanks so much for sharing these. Can't wait to see them made up!
You are right about the Pietra pants with the Wanted Top! The pattern is, however, a PDF only pattern so you can just order it off her site. The instructions are all in French, but hopefully the sew along i did would help!
thank you, thank you, thank you I spent the whole day yesterday looking for a woven tank top pattern with darts that I could use for this beautiful silk fabric I have. I could not find it I was so frustrated and then I saw your love notions Harmony pattern! That's it, it's perfect. Thank you for your pattern suggestions I love the looks that you featured
I don’t think I’ve been seeing ads on your channel...and you taking care of your business during these hard times? All the other blogs I pop into are running ads...
To sew knits? Yes, you can just a regular sewing machine. You will want to use a stretch or ball point needle and then sew with a stretch stitch (looks like a lightening bolt on the stitch selector) or a narrow zig zag (like a 1 width and 2.5 length).
GREAT spring suggestions! Any chance you can do the Closet Case Rome pieces as a sew a long??? Also love that square neck - I have to bring out Connie Crawford's tee shirt knit sloper which includes a square neck option out. The Buttons on the skirt is also a winner!
I’m glad you enjoyed it! I don’t normally do sew alongs for the indie patterns because they typically have their own sew alongs on their websites. Sorry about that!
PS i’m pretty sure Style Arc has a pants pattern that looks almost exactly like those tapered leg pants, with a flared and a tapered (or rather: tied) option!
TomKat Stitchery LOL! I agree that their site can be a bit overwhelming... Which reminds me: I have a lovely pattern of theirs, the Georgia peplum, but I'm stumped on how to do an FBA on it because of all the interesting seams on the front... I emailed them and got a written reply, but I'm a visual learner and cannot make sense of it... Going to have to try it on my own! (There will probably be a gazillion muslins 😂)
Thank you another great video. Love the square necked tee and will try the cielo dress (i've had this in my stash since it was released!). Thanks again.
Does butterick 6725 actually have custom cup sizes? It came up when I did a filter on their site, but didn’t see it indicated on the package. I was very disappointed that they seemed to offer nothing with custom cups this season.
😂 the fabric is from Minerva and I showcased the top in Sunday’s video (it’s the reveal video that ended t-shirt week). It’s the wanted tee by Vanessa Pouzet and I’m pretty much in love with the neckline!
I love the rainbow buttons on that simple flared skirt. I also love autumn colors. They look great on you.
Wasn’t that skirt adorable?
That white skirt with a rainbow of buttons - swoon! I have to go dig through my buttons.
Love your sew the look vlogs
Hi Gidget ♥️
Right?!! I need a rainbow of buttons ASAP for that skirt!
The rainbow buttons are such a cute idea! I want to do them for my toddler!
Isn’t that cute and so easy to recreate?!
You look exceptional in the autumn colours patterned top you wore today and that’s probably why I think you look so good in your multi coloured suit. I’m looking forward to seeing more of your patterned makes.
Thank you! This top encompasses pretty much all of my color palette so it’s a good one!
LOVE the square neckline tee! Square necklines are my jam - somehow really flattering on my curvy figure. Thank you for mentioning this tee design - I had never even heard of this designer!
I agree that they are super flattering! I think they are great on a larger bustline!
First off, I adore your square necked tee! Between the fabric pattern and the style it's beautiful! All the street styles you picked are really nice.
Thank you so much! I’m pretty happy I was able to squeeze this t-shirt out of the leftover fabric from my jumpsuit!
You look stunning in all your colors, especially the tee you are wearing
Thank you so much!
Enjoyed the spring look book. Thanks for taking the time to put it together.
My pleasure!
It’s so nice to think about Spring and being outside ! Thank you for the video !
Right?!!
Your Wanted Square necked T is fabulous! So striking on you. Loved this video of spring looks. 💕💃🏻👏🏼
Thank you! I’m definiltey in love with that neckline.
Great inspirations and awesome pattern choices. Go the mustard jacket for the first style. Love the image.
I’m so glad!

Aww! Thank you! I’m glad you like my Eddystones. They are definitely a more relaxed fit and I’m really loving the different silhouette!
That white boden skirt with buttons!!!!!! love it. Great looks, the bold colours are fabulous, I am never afraid of being bold...and beautiful, and neither are you xxxxx
Yes to being bold! Isn’t that skirt adorable?!! I need to find a rainbow of buttons ASAP!

Hi Whitney. Happy Easter to you and your family. I love that shirt you are wearing.
Thank you! I hope your Easter is going well also!
thank you . It was a lot of fun. Love the colors of what you were wearing on you. Still marvelling how the changes to the 'autumn' colors made to your whole look!!

You and me both! I am VERY excited to be able to go thrifting again!
Thanks so much for this. Love, love the white skirt with rainbow buttons!!
Isn’t it a cute idea?!!

What a lovely thing to hear! I’m so glad you’re enjoying the daily stuff!
Hi from England. I am 2 weeks behind watching your videos but I had to jump in with this one when I saw it in my inbox. Great, so much inspiration, thanks, love these types of videos.
I’m so glad! They’re really fun to research and film so I’m glad you all like watching them!
Thanks, Whitney. I love the inspiration. I’m recreating an Anthropologie dress with a bright pink silk crepe I got from a friend. I chose the fabric because it was in my stash but how fun to find out I’ll be bang on trend!
Woo hoo! I love copying ready to wear things and then comparing price tags 😂.
For the stacked ruffle dress, you could use Mimi G's Simplicity 9114. But, hers is a maxi dress and buttoned up the front. Love to see the styles you're going to make! Thanks so much.
That’s a great suggestion!
Love all these ideas Whitney - my favourite kind of video. Maybe you could use this as an idea for another sewalong, with a new hashtag? The last one was such fun.
Do you mean like The Great Module Sew Along? That could definitely be fun!
TomKat Stitchery yes definitely. It would be fun to make, and use previously made, garments inspired by yours or our own street style images.
Great video. Thanks Whitney :) Look forward to the tutorial on taking the shoulder pad ease out of patterns. I have a ton of 80s patterns. This will be invaluable!
Oh good! I just filmed it today!
Whitney, I love your videos! I have a pretty different style than you, but I’m always so inspired. You make it easy to imagine how each of us can take our personal styles and incorporate the same ideas into our sewing.

Thanks Whitney., Nice styles. See you tomorrow. Stay safe and healthy! ❤
I’m glad you enjoyed it!

I love the camel and red as well. I feel like that combination needs to happen sooner rather than later!
I agree!
Great top! Thanks for this video ~ love these!
Thank you!
Great pics! I love all the looks! I need to buy all the patterns. 😂😍
😂 I so easily fall into that hole as well!

You are right! The Montrose would be perfect for that lace top!
For the Look 8 shirtdress I immediately thought Megan Nielsen Matilda, she even made a sample in an orange linen!
Yes! That’s an excellent pattern pick for that one!
I enjoyed the tutorial. Love the looks. Great tips.
I’m so glad you enjoyed it!

Thank you!
How do you find/curate these inspiration images? Do you look for specific words on Pinterest?
Love this video!
I look on various store websites and then search certain key words on Pinterest (like wide leg pants street style).
I love the street style videos, thanks Whitney! I have a few of the patterns you recommended and am excited to go fabric shopping in my stash :)
Oh good!
That last look....You have the same two colors of fabric on the table in back of you!
😂 I noticed that as well!
I don’t think I’ve been seeing ads on your channel...and you taking care of your business during these hard times? All the other blogs I pop into are running ads...
Hmmm. I’m still showing a green light on the monetization. I’ll check into that!
Ads working today! Thanks for checking... we need to make sure we take care of each other.
Fun TY
My pleasure!
Can I use a regular sewing machine if so what stich do I need to use. I don’t have a serger

I am aching to make up the Cielo. I think it’s going to be next on my cutting table!
Did you see? The last look's colors are rught behind you!
😂 I know! I’m obviously just being drawn to those colors at this point!
😀

Check out this link. He used the Siena maker jacket and adapted it for himself. mainelymenswear.com/tag/sienna-maker-jacket/

It does. It has it in small print on the back of
my pattern. I agree. The only other pattern with cup sizes was a top pattern (that I also bought!).
Thank you!

I'm on a pattern ban, might have to ignore that
