I don't dry any of my clothing in the dryer. What I will do is air dry them then toss them in the dryer with a softener sheet for about 20 minutes to soften up the crunch. Your new Lamma hoodie really accentuates how much weight you've lost! It looks amazing on you!
Whitney, I love your Waffle Pattern coat in the plaid fabric. The Itch to Stitch sweatshirt is probably the best sweatshirt pattern I have ever seen for a women and one for us large busted women. Your choise of fabric has always been a favorite of mine as you really know what fabric to put together with what pattern. You have a really good eye for your designs and I am learning to put my patterns with my fabric, thank you for your continued help when it comes to that. Take care and God Bless you and your family and stay warm. It is only 19 degrees in snowy Mankato, MN. I am due for a shopping trip SR Harris..
It is hands down the best sweatshirt pattern I’ve come across for a large bust. I was so pleasantly surprised! I’m also so glad to hear you’ve been enjoying the channel. That makes me so happy. Also, I’m SUPER jealous of your impending SR Harris trip!
Thank you! I was so pleasantly surprised when I finished it up. I didn’t think sweatshirt fleece could be worn flatteringly over a large bust 😂. It can!
I love them all! I am anxiously awaiting the moment I match colors, flattering shape and fabric like you have, someday . . . . . . As for drying laundry I figured out to toss things in the dryer for 10 minutes and then hang them to dry. It removes the crunch factor for me without the heat damage. The time in the dryer might need adjusting based on how hard the water is. There's not much worse than air dried towels
I’m the neighbor that dresses up for walks with my husband too! Also my walks with my dog, too. I thought I was the only one. I started after I retired last year and found I still wanted to dress nicely, not sloppily. I wore nice casual dresses in the summer and I got lots of compliments. Yes lots of coats makes sense to me here in the freezing cold Midwest.
When we lived in upstate New York we referred to it as “the land of many coats”! There were many people who only saw me in a coat. And, winter weather (snow, sleet, dirty cars) requires you to clean you coats often - you need alternatives.
Born & raised in the Adirondacks. Can confirm. You need AT LEAST four winter coats (two "nice" coats [black wool peacoat with hood] and two that are more suited for the slopes [and snowball fights]) because you never know the occasion, plus one might be dirty or soaked through...you must always be ready. Being well-versed in the art of layering is a must to survive winter in "the great white north".
I have collected up all the supplies I need to make a warm wool winter coat to help me survive the upstate NY winters. I plan on interlining the coat between the wool and the kasha lining with thinsulate which is dependably very warm (which I did locate at a reasonable price but very expensive shipping rate considering the actual weight is quite low) and currently I am trying out various techniques for the linings, facings, shoulder pads, hidden front button placket, all new to me. This coat is turning out to be such an interesting and challenging project, perfect for filling the long hours of home time these days. I am enjoying your coat sew alongs as some of the techniques are also a part of my coat project. Thanks so much!
I just spoke with vogue fabrics. I got the shipping down to $22 by using fed ex. That’s for six yards. I also live in very northern NY. Not cold yet this year, but it will come.
@@Timpsonsews wow, wish I had thought of that! I ordered the Kasha then went back months later and swallowed the bullet on shipping to get the thinsulate. Closet Core Patterns has a tutorial on using thinsulate to line a coat. I have decided that I will sew a very light weight interlining, then add pieces of the thinsulate into each section, sewing close to the seam lines, then using that lining as the back of the Kasha lining fabric, treating the two linings as one, if that makes sense. I didn’t want to apply it directly to the back of the Kasha only because I don’t want the stitch lines to show where I am adding the thinsulate, but I plan on stitching in the ditch to secure the two linings together before I place them into the coat. I am using Vogue 8841 and there is a full workshop on that pattern in Craftsy, the paper pattern is included in the cost. He adds a hidden button placket , doesn’t use thinsulate but that style coat will easily accommodate a heavy lining without having to alter the pattern or go up a size.
Wow! That was a good one! Loved the sweatshirt color blocking. I think that’s another reason it is so flattering. You inspired me to make a coat this January. I even put bound buttonholes in it. Since I live in south Texas, I hope I have a cold enough day to wear it! I enjoy all your shows. Thank you so much!
Well just to catch you all up on us in the southern hemisphere. Mid summer its 3:37am and it 8°F . Seems we have a cold rain snap. Lol. 💘 making winter coats, I've made many in my sewing life. Starting at age 8 with a coat and hat for my doll. Done by hand, nana wouldn't let me use here hand turn machine. Flip I'd been using my grandmother treadle for at least two years. ...... Love your chatter its real and reviews are truthful and informative.
I love the new Itch to Stitch hoodie, but I think when I make it I will make the one with the cowl neck. I reckon that you could make this with some active wear fabric too. I made the Itch to Stitch Orono Top and I love it. I made it from some brushed French Terry that I bought from Lush Fabrics here in Australia. I was wearing it last year and whilst in the supermarket a young lady came and complimented my top, she couldn't believe that I had made it! I do hope you are feeling better and don't forget to do some self care! I will let you know about Bendigo Woolen Mills when I go and visit next week. Take care and Love to Gidget
You could definitely use an athletic knit. I’m pretty sure Karina from Lifting Pins and Needles made one of hers in athletic knit. It’s a very versatile sweatshirt!
Fun review-- I especially love the bamboo coat, the orange pants, and the Hepburn turtleneck (I've made two-love this pattern!)!! The Anorak coat looks so nice as well, I may have to check into that!! Everything of course looks fabulous! Oh my word-I just received an email from "Itch to Stitch" this morning for the Lamma-and I bought it!! That looks like a must have for any wardrobe-I love your version!! I had just bought myself some red sweat-shirting-will have to sort through my stash for the contrast, as that really makes it so figure flattering I think!! Oh, I'm so sorry-I received their email-so I didn't see your video prior to my buying!! So sorry!! Next time I will check first. :+)
Michelle says I'm Late to the party on this, but I LOVE coats, I watched X Files (going way back now) for Gillian Anderson coats. Loving your channel. Keep well. (I'm a coat lover in the southern hemisphere.)
I so agree about the skinny jeans appeal waning for me too. But I think it is because I am also an inverted triangle. When I do a selfie, my legs look like pencils although my calves are athletic, 🤣. Enjoying the coat extravaganza this year! I have the Liesl sewalong pattern and make crack it shortly! 🙏
Oh good! I know what you mean about the skinny jeans. They can make my lower half look very disproportionate to my upper half as well 😂. I’ve been enjoying playing with other leg widths!
Morning Whitney, love the new Itch to Stitch sweatshirt, looks fantastic on ,very flattering style. Looks like I will be buying a new pattern today. Great video thank you. Val ❤️🇨🇦🇬🇧
Hi there Whitney! Where's your snow? I was jealous looking at your green grass. I'm north of Toronto ON and it's white here. I really like the slimming lines on that sweatshirt and thanks for reminding me about the turtleneck. Those patterns should help with the chilly weather.
So I just called vogue fabrics. They suggested fed ex shipping is a cheaper than postal service. I got it down to $22 for six yards slipping! Still a lot but do able. It was me who told you the original shipping was quieted as $45. Because it is so bulky.
I’m so glad they were able to get it down a bit! As soon as we can travel to Chicago again, I’m planning a Vogue Fabrics stop. I’ll have to make sure and grab some of that while I’m there!
I am a coat-a-holic. I spend a lot of time outside between work and walking. I want to be warm, dry and stylish. I am currently working on a coat from thrifted Scottish tartan, thrifted lining, and a thrifted vintage pattern probably from the 70's. That Itch To Stitch sweatshirt is perfect.
Even though I don’t have the need for coats I still love watching your makes. Is the shoulder on the style arc cardigan very dropped that is about as coating I ever need. You are using your colour palette so well.
The wide leg pants look great on you. Have you thought of doing a vest to go with the B6702 dress or a high-hip length jacket or a vest and a high-hip length jacket? I've watch your coat production and learned a great deal and --- it has caused me to want ------ a ------ cape. Go figure! I have not figured out how to inter-line a cape, yet, so that project will have to wait.
I was laughing to myself as you we’re talking basically about not leaving out people in warmer climates that don’t need a lot of thick coats. You said you didn’t want to ostracize and I thought you were going to say “my fair weather friends”. Lol
I put my jeans in the dryer for 10 to 20 minutes with a dryer softener and then I take them out and hang them to dry. I also do that to my husbands jeans and for him we stretch his waist band. He buys a 34 waist which is just a little tight, 35’s are hard to find. We just need to give them a good tug which helps them to fit just right. You can also pull the legs to make them longer. They feel much better than jeans just air dried.
Hi Whitney Just a quick message about you storage problem with you Vlog, pictures and twirls. I take a lot of pictures and digitize lots of old photos for family. I store all my photos and videos on a external hard drive, (4-Terabyte) I have 3 of them. They are not to expensive and I feel better knowing that I have them backed up in flies I can get anytime I need to. Love your explanation of wearing your Coats out in the neighborhood, as if you were in Paris, or NYC. 😃☀️
@@TomKatStitchery Hi yes I can we got it from Amazon, it's a MyPassport. The website is www.wd.com, it has 4 TB capacity, they are right around $100. I find it to be very useful 😊
You look good and hope all is going okay. On the waffle pattern, it would look real cute if you would make a beret cap out of the plaid. I have to let you know - I find myself answering your questions or nodding my head when I agree. Lock me up and keep an eye on me, please ! lol
Sorry for not mentioning the garment I was asking about. The question for a second time is, how did you adjust the size for your jacket with the thicker lining
No problem! I didn’t adjust the pattern at all. Quilting the lining to the Thinsulate smashed it down enough that I didn’t have to make any adjustments. I wear that jacket over my thickest sweaters and sweatshirts and it fits great!
Do you think I could line a boiled wool coat or jacket with polyester fleece? The fleece does have some horizontal stretch while the boiled wool has none, of course. I’d really appreciate your opinion because this’ll be my first attempt at a non-beginner pattern.
I think it could be done. I would caution the sleeves, though. While you could definitely line a sleeve with fleece, it will cause your clothes underneath to catch. I prefer to have my sleeves lined with something slippery as it’s just easier to wear. Another thing to keep in mind is that the fleece will cause a bit more bulk so you might need to size up the pattern!
Thanks. Did you do a sew along on the Kelly Anorak. I want to make that ( bought way back when) but not sure how to do that jacket. I want to make out of a rainwear fabric or a polyester that would be water resistant. Also is the waist cinching really at the waist. I don’t like ties higher up, bu I could always lengthen that. Thanks.. love all your garments. I got the Itch to Stitch email today and accidentally deleted. Hope I don’t need a discount code.
No discount code needed for the Lamma. It’s discounted on the site! I do not have a sew along for the Kelly. Closet Core Patterns has so many sew alongs, tutorials and even classes you can buy for their patterns that I don’t do any tutorials or sew alongs on their stuff. They do, however, have a series on how to make a waterproof rain coat with the Kelly pattern!
Hi! You mentioned that you have been wearing clothing from your color pallet. How did you find what this is for yourself? Or have you made a video on it? Thank you!
I want to make the sweatshirt. But I have an off topic question? What is the name of the nails (fingernails) you used? I have rewatched a bunch of Volgmas. But I just can't find it
I got my thinsulate from Vogue also and I dont remember the shipping to be expensive. I know there are different thicknesses, perhaps the person you mentioned wanted the thicker thinsulate
If there is something special you want me to pick up just let me know, while I am there I can send you picture to see if you like the fabric. Take care.
I don't dry any of my clothing in the dryer. What I will do is air dry them then toss them in the dryer with a softener sheet for about 20 minutes to soften up the crunch. Your new Lamma hoodie really accentuates how much weight you've lost! It looks amazing on you!

My own personal cat walk 😂.
The Lamma Hoodie looks really nice on you. You look very proportionate and does not make you look large in any way!! So extremely flattering!
Thank you! I was so pleasantly surprised when I finished it up. I didn’t think sweatshirt fleece could be worn flatteringly over a large bust 😂. It can!
Thanks, Whitney, for making me break my "no patterns" rule for 2021! Love the sweatshirt! Great video!!
😂 sorry about that!

Love seeing and hearing about your makes, ideas, etc. My general motto is if it makes you happy and doesn’t hurt anyone else go for it!
I love that!
That sweatshirt is ADORABLE on you! Very flattering to your figure gives you nice shape!! And those colors! 💚
Thank you! This is the first flattering sweatshirt I’ve made!
Wow! That was a good one! Loved the sweatshirt color blocking. I think that’s another reason it is so flattering. You inspired me to make a coat this January. I even put bound buttonholes in it.

Oh goodness, you look great in all you creations! The sweatshirt makes you look slim.
Thank you so much!
The Itch to Stitch sweatshirt is so flattering on you. I love how you made it with the coordinating fabrics. Well done!
Thank you so much!
What fun, to have a new coat almost for each walk. You gotta make the most of it 😀
It makes getting ready to walk out the door fun, even if i take too long and annoy my husband 😂.

Thank you!
Nice to hear back after some time, which patterns and makes turned out to become favorites. 💕
I agree! It was nice to look back and see what I seem to grab the most often!
Love these coat pattern, also the sweatshirt thank you love your videos

I don’t normally get excited about sweatshirts, but this really surprised me!
Love the new sweatshirt pattern. I need it😊
It’s a good one!
Great Video. Extra interesting to see how we fall in love with certain items after the fact.
It really is!
Just ordered the Hepburn turtleneck and the new Lamma sweatshirt. Thanks for suggesting these patterns. Great video!
They are two great ones!
Love that Itch to Stitch Sweatshirt ---I can see why it would flatter anyone.
I think the same. I think I could even wear it with my rectangular shape.
It’s amazing! I’ve never worn or sewn a sweatshirt that doesn’t give me uni-boob or make me look boxy. This is a really good one!
That Lamma looks fantastic on you.
Thank you!
Love the sweatshirt, its very slimming on you. A must buy pattern...lol
It’s a great pattern!
You look great !! Love the patterns you are sharing in this video. 12/28/2022
Thank you so much!
The Lamma looks fabulous on you.
Thank you!
Hi there Whitney! Where's your snow? I was jealous looking at your green grass. I'm north of Toronto ON and it's white here. I really like the slimming lines on that sweatshirt and thanks for reminding me about the turtleneck. Those patterns should help with the chilly weather.
I know! We’re 10” behind normal for snow so far this year. It’s crazy!
So I just called vogue fabrics. They suggested fed ex shipping is a cheaper than postal service. I got it down to $22 for six yards slipping! Still a lot but do able. It was me who told you the original shipping was quieted as $45. Because it is so bulky.
I’m so glad they were able to get it down a bit! As soon as we can travel to Chicago again, I’m planning a Vogue Fabrics stop. I’ll have to make sure and grab some of that while I’m there!
Like that sweatshirt
It’s a great pattern!
I am a coat-a-holic. I spend a lot of time outside between work and walking. I want to be warm, dry and stylish. I am currently working on a coat from thrifted Scottish tartan, thrifted lining, and a thrifted vintage pattern probably from the 70's. That Itch To Stitch sweatshirt is perfect.
Ooh! Your coat sounds gorgeous!
I'm going to post it on Instagram when I finish it.
Try Seattle Fabrics in US for Thinsulate. Also there is a version at Connecting Threads in US you might be able to use.
Thank you! I love having more sources!
Even though I don’t have the need for coats I still love watching your makes. Is the shoulder on the style arc cardigan very dropped that is about as coating I ever need. You are using your colour palette so well.
The shoulder on the Como is very dropped. It hits about the middle of my upper arm.
The wide leg pants look great on you. Have you thought of doing a vest to go with the B6702 dress or a high-hip length jacket or a vest and a high-hip length jacket? I've watch your coat production and learned a great deal and --- it has caused me to want ------ a ------ cape. Go figure! I have not figured out how to inter-line a cape, yet, so that project will have to wait.
I have been thinking about vests lately! They are showing up on the runways again!
The hoodie is fantastic! It's super cute and looks so great on you :D
Thank you! I was so pleasantly surprised!
That sweatshirt is amazing!

The sweat shirt sure makes you look so slender! Love the color and the inserts from your daughter's dress!
Thank you so much!
I love the coats-all of them. Just bought the Lamma Hoodie pattern from your link! Wonder if I could use a lightweight non-pill fleece?
I think you could definitely use a fleece for that pattern!

I have made a video about my experience here: th-cam.com/video/T5vbDyt-LgE/w-d-xo.html . It was well worth the investment!
Well I think you feel a whole lot better about life if you feel gorgeous inside, and a choice of fabulous coats will do that 😉
You are so right!
I want to make the sweatshirt. But I have an off topic question? What is the name of the nails (fingernails) you used? I have rewatched a bunch of Volgmas. But I just can't find it
The nails are Impress by Kiss and you can find pretty easily at any drugstore. You can also find them on Amazon. I’ve been so impressed with them!
For jeans, I dry my jeans long enough to get them hot then I hang them up and they are not crinkly.
That’s a great tip! Thank you!
What skirt are you wearing with the Hepburn turtleneck? I am looking for a nice button front skirt pattern.
That is the Fiore Skirt by Closet Core Patterns!
@@TomKatStitchery thanks! I was thinking about getting that pattern.
Sweatshirt outfit you look very slender. I love it. I will probably be making it.
Thank you! I was shocked how flattering this sweatshirt was!
I got my thinsulate from Vogue also and I dont remember the shipping to be expensive. I know there are different thicknesses, perhaps the person you mentioned wanted the thicker thinsulate
That could be!
Appreciate the quiet intro.
Oh good! I’ve been lowering the volume on that to make it more even with the video!
Have you ever considered making a shirt jacket(Shacket)?
I have! In fact, I think I’m going to try and create one with my 1 pattern 3 ways series I’m going to do next month!
@@TomKatStitchery I look forward to it, will it be a tutorial?
@@cheri101099 I’m going to do a sew along on the pattern as drafted, but I’ll be sharing how I do my hacks as well!
How did you adjust the size for your lining.
For the Kelly Anorak? I didn’t adjust the size. Quilting the lining to the Thinsulate kept it flat enough to not need a size adjustment.
If there is something special you want me to pick up just let me know, while I am there I can send you picture to see if you like the fabric. Take care.
That’s so kind! Thank you for enabling my fabric addiction 😂.
I love the Lamma it would be very flattering for me being big busted as well🧵
It’s a magical pattern!
Why not sew a fabric hat?? Would be soo cute.
That would be adorable! I’m on a pattern hunt, now!
😀
❤️❤️❤️
An external hard drive would be your friend for you excess pictures.
Yes, it would. Unfortunately, I have yet to find a good one. They all keep crashing on me!
What State do you live in?
I’m in Indiana.
