    They are all beautiful. The sleeveless dress is my favorite. Well done.

    Love the way you cut the fabric. You really used the print to its best advantage.

      Thanks so much, Sara. I don’t usually sew a lot of geometric and stripes so these were fun projects.

    All three dresses looked great on you! The blue striped one is giving me an 80s vibe. AH.....good times..lol

      Thanks Nell! Yes, I am loving the retro vibes.

      Thanks so much-you know I resist stripes but everything I have made with stripes lately, I just love!

    I love the flare sleeves. I only purchased maxi dresses. I love the vertical lines in the last two dresses. You have inspired me to start sewing again. I just need to carve out the time. I enjoyed watching this video. 👍🏾❤️

      Thanks Lady Cheryl! I know you are always rocking your maxi dresses, even in your garden. The one you had on from your mom was gorgeous too. I hope you find some time to sew. Let me know if you make something. Hugs! ❤️

      Thanks so much, Linda! I really loved these dresses-took them all on vacation to Sedona, Arizona.

    I've had the Tshirt dress for years and I mean years.. at least 15.. I used to teach sewing and got it for an easy sew for beginners.. It looks great on you

    I have that See and Sew Pattern, but I haven't sewn it up yet. Now that I've seen yours, I want to move that up the cue. That one with the sleeves is especially adorable on you! I love that fabric. Thanks for sharing and taking the time to make the video.

    • @ShereesAlchemy

    Not sure if you will see this since this was five months ago. I have the first pattern. I haven’t sewn yet as I am short and squatty but gonna make it one day. You are a big help and inspiration

    • @ShereesAlchemy
      @ShereesAlchemy  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      You can always shorten it so it doesn't drown you out. Find a fabric to make a mock up and see if you can adjust the length or fit to better suit you.

      Thanks Susan. It’s funny because I hardly see with stripes. But you can have so much fun with them. I need to sew with striped fabrics more as I love how this turned out. Thanks for watching! ❤️

    Its frolicking time indeed! Lovely dresses, they look gorgeous on you, I am about to start sewing for summer time, Ive been working on some garments for my mom, she comes first on my makings list heheh, Im planing on trying new patterns from cris wood, rebecca page, knipmode and fibremood, btw they are offering five pdf patterns for €15! In case anyone like fibremood, love your makes they are very inspiring! Blessings and happy gardening!

    • @ShereesAlchemy
      @ShereesAlchemy  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes to frolicking! I treated myself to a subscription to fibremood. This reminds me I need to cash in my 5 free pdfs for the latest issue. I want to try Rebecca Page. I have a lot of knipmode in my stash from living in Germany. I’m too lazy to trace and add on the seam allowances though. 😩

      @@ShereesAlchemy I know, its a bit tedious to do it, I wish they would include A0 options to be printed, hopefully they will move into the digital rout soon 👌🏼😘

    I just bought that pattern at Hobby Lobby about a month ago. I’m making McCalls dress # 8053 currently and then I might make the New Look dress. I have an ITY fabric for it. 😊👚
    All your dresses look great! 👗

      Awesome Suzanne. Good to know it’s still available! I don’t know why it took me so long to sew these up. I’ll check if you have a TH-cam channel as I’d love to see your dresses. Hugs!

      Thanks Ginger! I think I mentioned each one in the video. The snake print and the orange geometric print are from fabric mart fabrics and the other one is from Joann fabrics.

    I have the pattern with 2 dresses...I have not had time to make yet. Thanks for your review and both of your dresses are beautiful. I have looked for your gardening channel...is it also a You Tube channel? Can you leave a link if it is?

      Hi Sandra! You have to try that pattern and let us know how it turns out. My gardening channel is AtHomeWithSheree I’ll try to put a link here. I need to put it up on the screen the next time I mention it in a video. Do you garden also? Thanks for watching!
