Absolutely fabulous, gorgeous makes and beautiful fabrics. I love the way you model the dresses. looking forward to all your content in 2023. My favourite is all of them! Especially love that black starry fabric from fabric godmother....you have done it justice.......I do prefer the lace on the bottom only. Always inspirational. love your garden and looking forward to the dahlias coming into bloom XX
Fantastic makes!. The opening outfit, pink, really your colour!.many faves here , what stands out to me is the 50th coat and dress combo. Tx for posting.
I have been catching up with your past videos and loving them. They are so enjoyable. All your makes are so lovely. I am like you in that I don’t have enough plains in my wardrobe. ❤
Thank you so much for your great videos. You always provide such wonderful inspiration. If only we lived about 12,000 miles closer! I know it sounds strange, but when I have your channel on in my sewing room, it feels like we're in there together. In this season of my life, that is quite healing. Wishing you and your family a magnificent 2023 with good health, prosperity, and challenge & reward in equal measure.
I’m caring for an adult special needs daughter, She is the reason I began sewing, and I love sewing for the 2 of us. My time, however, can be limited, and watching your videos keeps my love of sewing alive in between the times when I can be in my sewing room. Thank you so much😊
What an amazing year of sewing. Thanks Kristen for going over some of your favourities - I will be sewing a couple of them in 2023 🤞😍. Wishing you and the family health and happiness for 2023!
Kristen, I have been watching your channel for about 3 years, and have ALWAYS found them to be very inspiring! I am unable to order any of your fabrics because of shipping costs, but want you to know how much you have helped me on my sewing journey.
Love all the fabrics , especially Lise Tailor and Madame Iris . Now to decide what to sew with my stash that I’ve purchased . I have to wait a couple of weeks to get started as we’re moving house and are busy packing. Thank you for all the inspiration.
Kristen it’s so nice to see these beautiful garments you have made! I’m looking forward to seeing more this year and I want to wish you and your family a blessed 2023! ❤
Happy 2023 Kristen and also to all your family. I have truly valued and appreciated all the inspiration you have delivered throughout 2022. I haven't sewn in years and now I am thoroughly enjoying making my own wardrobe. I feel my skills are improving and could probably call myself an experienced beginner ready to tackle some more challenging makes. All the very best, looking forward to seeing more content and staying in touch. Thank you.
Hello Kristen, what a collection of beautiful makes. I have to say that I am one of those who you have inspired to dust off my sewing machine and find my sew-jo again. Thank you so much for that. Sewing has most definitely helped me through some challenging times over the last couple of years. Out of my makes in 2022, I have 3 favourite garments that I have absolutely loved making and wearing this year. Fringe Dress and Top by Chalk and Notch, Lisa Dress by Tessuti and Ora Pinafore Dress by Soften Studios. I have worn these makes so many times.....just love them. So enjoy your platform and content.....and always look forward to your volgs. Happy New Year ❤
You've certainly been a really busy lady in the sewing room. I made a Charlie dress in a viscose challis called Tokyo Nightlife from Lady McElroy and it is the most luscious dress to wear. I also love the Pattern Emporium patterns - I wore my Take the Chance Maxi today and was complimented on it - it seems to get alot of comments. I think your collection of 2022 makes are inspiring. Happy New Year.
@@thedahliasewciety I actually found out today from a Korean lady that the "writing" on that print I mentioned is Korean, Cheese and Japanese which I thought was interesting. Thought I'd share that with you as something interesting.
Wow,wow,wow, what a fabulous wardrobe you have. It’s stunning, your sewing is gorgeous and I love your a fellow Aussie doing such great things and spurring us home sewers on. Thankyou so much.
Thankyou Kristen a lovely video some gorgeous makes. My favourite make for 2022 is the Eva dress from Tessuti in 100% linen I've made 3 so far and have a 4th cut out! Love your videos xx Darwin Australia
Wow so many makes! I loooove the pink coat 😍 And so many beautiful prints! The black shirring top is lovely as well, I need to gather up some courage to try shirring again (kinda failed the first time 😅) Beautiful garden too 😊
Happy New Year, Kristen!! I’m still jealous of that beautiful pink Nova!! My favorite make of yours last year, hands down, is the Hortence blouse! That one just looks extra fabulous on you!! Cheers to the new year! I pray heaps of blessings over you!
Happy New Year to you and yours. I love your collection along with your hydrangeas. Reds, pinks and blues change according to the soil but the white stays true.
Happy New year Kristen, Dawn and to all your family, and look forward to more of your inspiring content and very being tempted by your online store. I dont seem to have the knack of matching patterns to fabric like you do, Ahh well just keep practicing I guess 🤣🤣🤣
Great vlog! I thoroughly enjoyed revisiting your sews from throughout the year. Oh and BTW I have to say, your hair looks absolutely fabulous, it’s so much softer around your face - you look lovely.
happy new year Kristen. glue the lace on? what a great idea for Christmas day, that made me smile from ear to ear and then the I'm to lazy to trace the patterns lol you are a girl after my own heart. i love all of your makes and, in fact, went back to watch this episode twice, because i did not have the time to finish it yesterday. If you did not want to permanently attach the lace again you could use black hook and eyes and stitch the eyes to the bottom of the garment and the hooks to the lace and just hook it on when you wanted that look. I hope you have a great year thanks for the content. Mayzie PS i have 4 dress patterns that i have brought because i saw them on your channel, all still waiting to be made up.
My favourite is the pink Nova coat. I have to have it on My make 9 as I have had it cut out since Winter. But I also love your Wanda in the linen/silk. I have Some similar coming from my sewwrapped prize, without any idea what to make, so it will be a puff sleeve top of some sort. Love your round up.
Thank you so much, Kristen, for the work you did on this video. I have some of these patterns and you are very inspiring! A Happy New Year to you and your family.
So glad you have recovered well after being unwell. You made so much! I thought the ava dress really stood out. I love pattern scout patterns. I'm so excited to see what you get up too next. Happy New Year❤❤
Thank-you for this..what a mammoth year you've had! For some background research for the history behind mainly fabric types, I've listened to a podcast series called 'Torn'. It's from the BBC and they each go for about 15 minutes. A really good series I've found. Might be of some interest to you? Happy New Year xx
Came across your channel towards the last part of 2022 so I have really enjoyed seeing your makes for the entire year. More gorgeous patterns to explore! Thank you😀
Happy new year! Thank you for all your vlogs, they are such an inspiration. You have a gorgeous wardrobe and I love the reviews of all your makes and the tips/advice you offer.
The fabrics are gorgeous!! I've been away from the channel for quite a while, doing some consulting work that took a huge amount of time. That is done for now, so hopefully I will be able to watch your videos once again! All of the makes were so pretty and flowy which is what I like. The pink short jacket/coat I think was my favorite. It looked so nice on you. I also liked alot of the dresses that had the big red flower prints and the little bird pattern dress. You were so busy this year and it sounds like the business side is going well for you too. Congratulations on being able to accomplish all of this! I hope you are feeling proud of the accomplishments because you deserve it!! Happy New Year to you and your family! OOO
Happy New Year Kristen. So many lovely makes, and so much inspiration, that it's hard to pick out favourites. Your two coats stand out in my mind, and that pattern-matched dress. I like the idea of your new series. I made the Charlie Caftan. Loved the pattern overall but had some issues with that central front placket, possibly due to material choice: I find that my delicate but relatively heavy viscose pulls down at the front because of all the weight in that placket so I keep having to hoick it up. Am wondering if it would be less of an issues in a lightweight linen or cotton lawn.
I loved the Closet Core Charlie Lagrange from that gorgeous blue fabric with those vibrant red flowers, and also the robe (I think, or was it a wrap dress?) With the gorgeous very large print on it. I love large prints, but am never sure of what to do with them. (Of course I will look back and see what pattern you used but TH-cam doesn't let me stop writing and check back on the video.)
Absolutely fabulous, gorgeous makes and beautiful fabrics. I love the way you model the dresses. looking forward to all your content in 2023.
My favourite is all of them! Especially love that black starry fabric from fabric godmother....you have done it justice.......I do prefer the lace on the bottom only. Always inspirational. love your garden and looking forward to the dahlias coming into bloom XX

Pink is so pretty on you. Could you please share the buttons you used....not sure which ones on website match the fabric.
