You did a fantastic job this year. There's no shame in going back to alter your clothes as you discover ways they could be improved. The garden dress is too pretty to give up on! Since you already removed the zipper, why not add loops and make it lace up in the back? That should allow more room!
If you ever want to be able to wear tour garden gown again now that it doesn’t have a zipper, just put laces in the back! Then it’s more adjustable and you don’t have to sew the zip again! Always love watching these types of videos, Happy New Year!
YES, I absolutely loved the videos where you went back to previous projects to fix them, because I learned a lot from you and it keeps things real! I've only been sewing for about 3 years, so watching your sewing journey unfold with all its victories and hardships is reassuring and motivating 😄
That sweater is gorgeous! Please share the link to the video, I'm very interested in learning how to knit. Thank you for sharing your sewing journey, you have inspired me to learn. Happy new year for you and your family!!
I think the retro green blouse with the white color would look really nice styled with some high waisted wide leg trousers in a coordinating color like white, light pink, or a neutral beige.
That blouse would look great with a white skirt or white pants. Matching the collar and cuffs looks intentional. Shoes that bring out an accent color or add black accents, black or white accessories. That blouse has some really nice lines. Very vintage looking so make the pants or skirt vintage looking.
black palazzo pants would be lovely with the blouse.. you have done so well this year with your sewing and all your videos are lovely with the music and your efforts. thank you x
Great job this year. It’s interesting to have this review of the clothes and hear which one got worn and which ones didn’t. Sometimes I wonder if I am the only sewist who hates some of the things I have sewn and never wears them so it makes me feel better when I hear you say you’re not 100% convinced by some of the things you made. I love the parts when you say what you liked or disliked and I think it’s important to have « learning years » (I just went through one which also explains why I hate some things now that I know what I could have done better). Thank you for sharing your journey with us.
You did so much great work this year! For the green blouse maybe you could pair it with the black skirt you wore in this video or plain black trousers? Definitely something plain because the blouse has such a busy pattern! 😅
That sweater! Oh my goodness, what beautiful work and the stripe matching!! 😍😍 I have had many projects this past year that were “failures”. Some were fixable and some were just opportunities to learn. Thanks for sharing what worked and didn’t. It’s actually very helpful! Baby clothes are SO fun to sew! My kids were school age when I started sewing, but I make baby clothes for friends and family as new babies come along. Picking out the fabric is so fun and I love to splurge on fun prints bc you only need a tiny bit! 😊
It looks like you did move a lot out of your comfort zone, thank you for sharing. Oh BTW, what was the video you used for your sweater you knitted? I don't see it listed.
I hope you had a very happy Christmas and that your new year is- well it’s gonna be the best year ever! I was just reminded that mistakes help us learn and grow. I whether it’s learning a skill or it’s learning things you don’t like to do or that you love to do or that you want to do more of , you learned. You leveled up on everything. That’s pretty cool. I think if you did it end of the year wrap up that included your home projects too, that would’ve been fun but I’m pretty sure that was a big enough job already. I wish you and your family all good things for the coming year. Tell Robert hi for us all and congratulations.😊
Bedankt voor dit openhartige kijkje achter de schermen! Ben het helemaal eens met je slotwoorden: liever eerlijk laten zien wat er ook is misgegaan dan alleen het goud dat er blinkt. Daar word je toch wijzer van. Ik haak mijn eigen kleding en stukken uithalen en opnieuw beginnen hoort er gewoon bij - elke keer weer. Fijne jaarwisseling, lieve Lucy!
I absolutely loved this! I taught myself to sew after I had my son since I was going to be home for a year on Mat leave, and when I was learning I always loved watching your videos. Honestly one of my favourite things to do is to press my garments and seams while I have one of your videos on in the background. Can’t wait to see what you sew in the new year! 🤍🤎
Hi me again, I would also love to see you sew a sweater like the one you knitted. Knitwear is something I haven’t ventured into yet and I’d love to know your experience if that’s something you ever want to try.
Great job! My style is so different but I can appreciate your beautiful and fun work. I think the long purple dress is a great candidate to be turned into a skirt and it would look super cute with a little knit top. I love seeing how you don't give up and keep reworking things to make them wearable.
I can't wait to see you make baby clothes! I just moved as we where is the progress of buying our first home when I lost my baby. 3 weeks "postpartum" and none of my clothes are fitting me (I was in my 2nd trimester when I had my miscarriage) so once I get my sewing machine set up I need to make myself some clothes that fit. And I'm planning to try again so I know I'll be making baby clothes in the future.
Hello My you have been busy this year! As a knitter and crocheter I really liked your sweater. I knit a vest this past year (and other things). The vintage blouse (I can sew but haven't for some time) I like a lot. It would look great with nice black or white slacks, or a black skirt. Have enjoyed watching you work and I think we crafty types can all relate to the struggles. But that's how we learn and improve. I get impatient and don't research and think things through enough sometimes because I just want to dive in and start working. Sometimes it pays, sometimes not. It's a gamble but we're also doing what we love. Have a Happy New Year! Take care ☺
Loepsie, I have to say that you have been looking absolutely radiant! I've always thought that you have a lovely face, but there is something extra specially beautiful about you right now, this inner joyfulness and femininity is just shining through! Pregnancy definitely suits you very well ❤
I love seeing you go back and fix or alter things because it gives me so many ideas! Also yay for making baby clothes! And for knitting, check out kutovakika! Almost all of her patterns have video tutorials
I don't use this account I used as a teenager. I used to love you so much as a kid because I thought you had similar interests to mine and had a personality that seemed so inspiring and relatable. I love seeing that you seem to be very happy and hitting milestones and like a lot of the youtubers I watched as a kid I still feel like I share your same values as me. You are so cool still, you where when I was a teenager and you are now I'm almost 30. Idk if this is too soppy but eh. I love your dresses and I love you! Happy new year's.
Hi Lucy! I would enjoy taking a look at that sweater video, but I don't see it posted! I think you did a fine job on those garments and enjoyed watching the videos, even if some of them didn't quite meet expectations. I wonder if you would want to sew some slacks to match that 30's/40's blouse in the dark color (dark green?) That would make a cute outfit!
If you are planning on breastfeeding, you should try nursing bras. All bras are pretty easy and you are not wasting a lot of fabric, so you can take a couple of try’s at it. They are so expensive to buy.
I believe the pattern and tutorial is by Florence Miller - Handmade by Florence on TH-cam. Can't link it but the downloadable pattern is on Ravelry and the video tutorial guide is named "knit your first sweater! free pattern & detailed tutorial".
Hi - just wanted to suggest a solution for the lilac "dream-dress" (where you took the zipper out):) A corset-style back might solve the problem of it being a tiny bit small (and also might be a great idea for postpartum):) Lots of love from vienna🤗
11:00 So sad that this dress is too small. Would it fit / would you enjoy it more if it had a corset back maybe? I mean the one with loops and a ribbon going zigzag trough?
I absolutely loved everything you made this year!!! What is the name of the lingerie supply store you got the kit from? I'll be in Amsterdam next summer and would love to check it out!
I don’t want to scare you but some of those clothes might never fit your body again after giving birth 😅🙂 that’s just what happens to most women, it happened to me too, your body will change in pregnancy and look different after birth then it used to look before having children. That’s not bad but some of the measurements you had pre-pregnancy might never come back. So be ready to say goodbye to some of your clothes, especially if they are very very fitted. But you did a great job in sewing each one of them and they are beautiful! 💖
i had everyone and their mother tell me this 😂. But I've had 2 kids and wear almost everything that I owned prior to my first pregnancy. I hope no one gets rid of things they love until they're sure they will never be able to wear it again.

Never be disappointed in making a mistake. It is just an opportunity to learn something new. Beautiful knit sweater!
I think the retro green blouse with the white color would look really nice styled with some high waisted wide leg trousers in a coordinating color like white, light pink, or a neutral beige.
could you please link the knitting video tutorial you've learned from? 🥰
That blouse would look great with a white skirt or white pants. Matching the collar and cuffs looks intentional. Shoes that bring out an accent color or add black accents, black or white accessories. That blouse has some really nice lines. Very vintage looking so make the pants or skirt vintage looking.

I started sewing this year! I've only made small projects so far but I'm hopeful I'll be able to make myself a dress next year
Wow! That raincoat is awesome 😍
I loved the fabric of the garden dress 👍
That sweater is amazing! From what I can see from this distance your tension is incredible!!
You did so much great work this year! For the green blouse maybe you could pair it with the black skirt you wore in this video or plain black trousers? Definitely something plain because the blouse has such a busy pattern! 😅

It looks like you did move a lot out of your comfort zone, thank you for sharing. Oh BTW, what was the video you used for your sweater you knitted? I don't see it listed.
I appreciate all of your sewing videos, successful or not. Thank you for sharing them❤
Love this recap video, you learned so much and made such beautiful clothes!
I hope you had a very happy Christmas and that your new year is- well it’s gonna be the best year ever!

I started sewing this summer. I have only made a few skirts but I hope to do a lot more next year

Hi me again, I would also love to see you sew a sweater like the one you knitted. Knitwear is something I haven’t ventured into yet and I’d love to know your experience if that’s something you ever want to try.
Have you thought about doing lacing at the back of the purple flowery dress so it can fit you and revive it? Just an idea!
I’ve loved following your sewing journey, you’ve been so inspiring! I think the Eowyn dress is my favourite. ✨✨ Happy 2024 to you both!
Great job! My style is so different but I can appreciate your beautiful and fun work.

So sorry for your loss ❤
Oh boy, I hear you! I did my masters project and thesis on the challenges and solutions for written knitting patterns 😅
Wish you the best 2024 ever!! ✨💕
Can't wait to see what new things this new year brings😊
Hello
My you have been busy this year!
As a knitter and crocheter I really liked your sweater. I knit a vest this past year (and other things).
The vintage blouse (I can sew but haven't for some time) I like a lot. It would look great with nice black or white slacks, or a black skirt.

Have a Happy New Year! Take care ☺
The top would also look good with yellow overalls maybe
Loepsie, I have to say that you have been looking absolutely radiant! I've always thought that you have a lovely face, but there is something extra specially beautiful about you right now, this inner joyfulness and femininity is just shining through! Pregnancy definitely suits you very well ❤
I think you could rescue the big tulle floral dress but making it into a skirt. It’s lovely and a shame not to be able to wear it.
amazing makes! Beautiful!
Happy New Year, Lucy!! I really enjoyed seeing your progress and pushing your skills to new heights. I’m looking forward to seeing more this year!
I love what you made this past year! Thanks for sharing.
I love seeing you go back and fix or alter things because it gives me so many ideas! Also yay for making baby clothes!

Really enjoyed this video :))) great job :)
LOVE It!! Lilic dress you can safe It with a corset back and a modesty panel.
Hi Lucy! I would enjoy taking a look at that sweater video, but I don't see it posted!
I think you did a fine job on those garments and enjoyed watching the videos, even if some of them didn't quite meet expectations. I wonder if you would want to sew some slacks to match that 30's/40's blouse in the dark color (dark green?) That would make a cute outfit!
I adore these! God bless your pregnancy 🙏❤️
I love these videos! Nice to see an overview and how youve grown! I should start doing something like this as well
The purple dress could you up a corset back on it? Then you could maybe get use of it?
If you are planning on breastfeeding, you should try nursing bras. All bras are pretty easy and you are not wasting a lot of fabric, so you can take a couple of try’s at it. They are so expensive to buy.
This will be great for breastfeeding! I recommend a snap instead of stitch if you want to secure the front
Happy New Year! And thank you for your lovely videos!
Great video! Will you be sharing the link for your knitted sweater? Amazing job, it is lovely
Hi!!! What was the pattern for the sweater you knitted?
I've also only ever knitted scarves, would love to venture into sweaters!
I believe the pattern and tutorial is by Florence Miller - Handmade by Florence on TH-cam. Can't link it but the downloadable pattern is on Ravelry and the video tutorial guide is named "knit your first sweater! free pattern & detailed tutorial".
Beautiful work. I hope you’re excited to make baby clothes. Definitely make some bonnets. Happy new year!!
Hi - just wanted to suggest a solution for the lilac "dream-dress" (where you took the zipper out):) A corset-style back might solve the problem of it being a tiny bit small (and also might be a great idea for postpartum):) Lots of love from vienna🤗
Everything you make is impressive. Will you make baby clothes at all in the new year? I tried dresses for my girls that turned out horrendously 😅
Hello Lucie! Im so in love with your raincoat 😍 which pattern did you use? Thank you x
11:00 So sad that this dress is too small. Would it fit / would you enjoy it more if it had a corset back maybe? I mean the one with loops and a ribbon going zigzag trough?
Welke video heb je gebruikt van de gebreide trui? Ik doe zelf altijd haken maar wil breien proberen. Maar weet mijn god niet waar te starten🥴
I absolutely loved everything you made this year!!! What is the name of the lingerie supply store you got the kit from? I'll be in Amsterdam next summer and would love to check it out!
Would love to see you doing a babywearing coat!
4:28 where is the link? I can't see it in your description box 😢
I didn't see the link to the sweater tutorial video in the description?
Can you tell us the pattern for the dirndl dress???
🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡
Great job! That lingerie is awesome.
It looks like the swimsuit might work for breastfeeding, no? Is that a drawstring on it?
I don’t want to scare you but some of those clothes might never fit your body again after giving birth 😅🙂 that’s just what happens to most women, it happened to me too, your body will change in pregnancy and look different after birth then it used to look before having children.

But you did a great job in sewing each one of them and they are beautiful! 💖
i had everyone and their mother tell me this 😂. But I've had 2 kids and wear almost everything that I owned prior to my first pregnancy. I hope no one gets rid of things they love until they're sure they will never be able to wear it again.
