Two cardigans, because it's getting to that time where bundling up is just a daily way of life. Hoping to also bask you a bit in velvet shimmer. Thank you for watching!!
I was excited to see this and the cardigans looked amazing. I was wondering if you would take more time to show more detail in your videos of measurements, cutting etc. I realize they are in your blog but I'm a very visual learner and find it much easier if I watch something step by step in a video. Thanks for your awesome tutorials and if you haven't the time to do them this way, its not a problem:)
+Lovaine Niblock My videos are no way as pretty as Wendy's, but they're aimed at people with a little less experience who like to see each stage of making in real time. You can check out my channel if you have the sewing bug! :)
+Lovaine Niblock Yes I will be slowing down in the future! This tutorial didn't turn out as perfectly timed as I had hoped, so I'm sorry that it is a bit fast :(
I've always wanted to make my own clothes but I'm terrible when it comes to sewing. For the most part is because I never actually learned the basics so you can imagine how overjoyed I was to find out that you're going to start a basics series soon! gurl, you just earned yourself a new subscriber
No waaayyy... I probably was to eager to start with all the stuff you are learning us, but I just heard you say "blog post". You film it al and have the energy to put it all in a blog post too? You awesome! Thank you!
Super excited for the turorials, im waiting for my very first sewing machine to arrive. Just in time! What do you think about using dress forms? Have you ever tried it? Would it be easier to use, you think?
+Lilox in my personal opinion this wouldnt be very hard without a dress form, think of sewing from a pattern as making one of those 3D paper dolls. or somewhat to a step by step coloring book. you dont really need a dress form unless youre fitting garments, altering, or draping something
Please help. I think I’m addicted to your channel 😭. I come back to your channel everyday to watch your videos and I’m so stoked to try some of your DIY’s when I have a break from work
Paula Moreno Post a WANTED AD under the FOR SALE section of your local Craigslist - sounds weird, but most people look through the for sale stuff as CL has it open on default to that section (or most apps have that as a default). You'll get MANY replies... I got a vintage machine worth a lot of $ for free, a sewing cabinet that retails for $450-$500 for $20 and help taking it down a flight of stairs, and OMG you should see the FABRIC that ilder women who sadly can't sew like they used to give me! YARDS OF beautiful wool tweeds, real woolled flannels, heirloom linens and laces, yards of organza, buckets of zippers, buttons, elastics, thimbles, CRAZY more fabric, patterns and more patterns and MORE fabrics... The only price I pay? I usually plan to be there for an hour or two, as the woman who is giving me stiff will start talking about the time she bought it - what it was for, if she made it or not and why... It's actually one of the most amazingly cool ways of getting things for cheap or free - I usually just say "Sewing Lover ISO fabrics and notions to make my own clothing with. I'm happy to pay what I can - but it's not going to be very much. I'm hoping that posting here, people will think of me when decluttering or culling their fabric & pattern stashes - am happy to meet you in public, at your home at your convenience, or whatever works for you. If you have ANYTHING, it would help me a lot, and if there's anything I could help you with - like sorting your fabrics, or taking some things to a charity shop, I am nore than happy to help out as much as I can. Eyelets, laces, curtains, vintage tablecloths, border prints, calico, youll find some amazing stuff.
This kimono looks awesome, you and your friend are gorgeous wearing them, looks so comfortable. I'm definitely gonna sew one for myself sometime soon, thanks for the tutorial!!!
you are really my inspiration in fashion that's why i ordered a mini sewing machine(i cant afford the big ones coz still a student) i will definitely do your diy's so much love from the philippines ❤️❤️
Im a new subbie. Your videos are amazing! Only thing I wish is to see you sewing the pieces together a tiny bit slower. Sometimes it can be a little bit confusing. Much love and success to you! :)
I'm finding this hard to follow but I think it's because it's going so fast! But I love these videos, these are some really cool things! I think I'll try the blog post, I might be able to follow that one a bit easier :)) keep up the great work!
I LOVE YOUR SHORT HAIR!!!! Ugh long cardigans are my world. I have a fashion sense where nothing I like seems to exist, can you create some of my visions?! Omg i would die.
I'm new at this and i still dont have a sewing machine but once i get it i'll make all of the awesome stuff reaalllly you are amazing ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ i can't afford to go to a fashion school so I'm hoping to learn everything from you❤️💜
Beautiful makes,amazing colours .Could you speak slower and take time to explain how to cut out the patterns and make them.I've checked your blog but the explanations are too fast.Your,obviously,talented but can you be more in depth with your explanations and instructions.Thanks,
Maureen Cullen there is a pattern making video on her channel-nice and easy (and slower going as well! easy enough to understand even for a non native English speaker)
Wendy! I just stumbled upon your page as I was teaching myself how to sew and you are such an inspiration! Can you do a tutorial for a light trench? In the mean time, I'll tackle this one. SOOO excited to try all your DIYs!
Hi Wendy, I love your videos!!! A have a request, I would love to see a video of your work station and filming set up!! Like what your workspace looks like, what kind of camera you use to film and take pictures of your work, things like that :D keep up the great work!! I'm super stoked to give this cardigan a try :3
Wendy - you are amazing! Thanks for sharing these videos which have reignited my passion for sewing. I will be doing the cardigan and the bralette for sure. I'm currently working on a rendition of Gucci's metallic bomber this weekend. SO glad I came across your site (while looking for an easy way to take in a pair of pants) Xoxo
lol im 13 turning 14 n yassss... u will love trying a sewing machine.. i've been wanting to design since i was 6 bc my mom inspired me n the singer aaliyah.. so ig it runs in the family but anyways enjoy.. rn i have a starter (Singer Sewing Machine)
I am in love with your channel. This cardigan is beautiful. I will definitely make this. Looks like a light weight velvet...Maybe a rayon velvet? I'll check your blog for more. Thank you so much. I love your style of vlogging, editing, etc. Fast. Too fast for me to follow but that's what the speed setting is for. You sounded drunk at half speed...lol...but it helped to slow it down. Don't change a thing. Thanks for explaining that there's more description on the blog. So cute.
question of the day, where did you get the beautiful fabric for that sea foam cardi? I want to make it, idk if I can, but I'm definitely willing to try haha.
Where did you get that dusty pink velvet from??? I've been trying to find a fabric with a similar movement and beauty but just can't. Absolutely beautiful cardigan and kimono!
Can you show us how to make a plaid button down shirt? :D I found some really nice material at Joann's Fabric store but I just wanted to see how you would make your button down shirts because your tutorials are so nice and simple!
Hi, Wendy! I really love the clothes that you make. I'm still a beginner at sewing, so I'd really like to know how you cut your fabric, mine always ends up asymmetric :'(
Trust us, more detailed tutorials in the video is not dry, Wendy!!! :-) Yes, we want! Some of us are visual learners, and I know you want to sound and look 'cool' and all, but we just want to *learn* from you. So, it's ok to slow down the visuals a bit so that we can catch what you're doing, esp. for 'beginners'. You're amazing, love your vids and ideas! Hugs...***Asteri***
for someone who's never made a jacket would you consider this fairly easy? I've sewn with velvet so I'm not too nervous but I've never done arm holes are anything like that
This is so pretty I have some old velvet the only thing is that has lycra so is streaky would it would with this fabric too? Thanks for sharing this beautiful idea!!
+alager27 As long as the velvet has good weight so that it really drapes from the shoulders it should have the right silhouette. I'd avoid velvet with stretch though, will be harder to work with for the kimono style.
+withwendy Thanks for answering beautiful, yes that is what I figure, need to look for the right velvet ;) yours turned out so feminine and look light weight, need to look around the shops, Thanks a lot! Beso
how did you learn how to sew? i want to make this so badly! maybe this weekend hmm ^__^ Also, how many yards did you have to buy for the velvet and silk for the fancy cardigan?
LOVE your tutorials and style! I know you said it's draining to put in too many details, but I was wondering if some parts could be slowed just a tad bit. (For future vids???) The cinematography is beautiful, but it's kinda fast. 😅
I understood the tutorial (because I've been seeing for awhile), but on some parts of the video, I was like "woah did I accidentally click 2x speed ?!😳" Lol But yes, I agree with your comment! It'd be great if the video is slower just so the tutorial can be done by people of all levels of sewing skills since Wendy's creations are amazing 😊

Loved the video. Speed was perfect for me and instruction were understandable for experienced sewers. Thank you.
I just love kimonos, they're very stylish, and warm.

Yo what if she collaborated with coolirpa bruh they could make their own fashion line if they wanted to
yaaaas!!
Talented, but could you slow down a little bit? Couldn't see a thing you were doing - everything went so fast. :(
you can slow down the video in the settings

A basics series sounds so great!! Really looking forward to it!!
I’m so in love with these! Especially love the Velvet and Silk combo!
The cardigans are so beautiful, you are so talented Wendy! I can't wait for your learn to sew series, I definitely need it in my life.
Please help. I think I’m addicted to your channel 😭. I come back to your channel everyday to watch your videos and I’m so stoked to try some of your DIY’s when I have a break from work
YAY, I'm really looking forward to the basic serie!! I just asked my mom if I could use her old machine! :D I'm super pumped!
I honestly never make anything. I just love to watch how talented you are and how awesome these things turn out.
Anyone else want to do her tutorials but can't?
It can't just be me ;(
I love you!
ikr :/
I can't cause I don't have a sewing machine and it would be a pain to do it by hand :/
they always have them at thrift stores for cheap where I got my first one

Hi Wendy. I really like the simple cardigan! Thank you for showing me how to make it! 😊

I really love all your tutorials. You're so innovative. But I can't seem to keep up. I wish I had half your sewing skills. You're super talented :)
Wendy! I just stumbled upon your page as I was teaching myself how to sew and you are such an inspiration! Can you do a tutorial for a light trench? In the mean time, I'll tackle this one. SOOO excited to try all your DIYs!
I can't wait for the basics series! 🙌

Love it. Simple to make. Question, what other fabric that you suggest that the cardigan can be made out of other than velvet? Great diy. Thanks :-)
I am in love with your channel. This cardigan is beautiful. I will definitely make this. Looks like a light weight velvet...Maybe a rayon velvet? I'll check your blog for more. Thank you so much. I love your style of vlogging, editing, etc. Fast. Too fast for me to follow but that's what the speed setting is for. You sounded drunk at half speed...lol...but it helped to slow it down. Don't change a thing. Thanks for explaining that there's more description on the blog. So cute.
please slow down, please!!! many of us are trying to translate and understand the sewing process at the same time
I totally loved your version more! Nice!

ohhhhh myyyy i judt didcoverd your channel and am bige watching it! LOVE EVERYTHING very well done

In all honesty, I really like the two designs. :) As in I'm drooling for the number 2. I want to have a relic of it. Waaaaaaah!
I fell in love... *.* You are so so talented. I want to learn how you do this! 💛💛💛
We basically saw you saw a scrunched up ball of fabric into a beautiful masterpiece 🥰
question of the day, where did you get the beautiful fabric for that sea foam cardi? I want to make it, idk if I can, but I'm definitely willing to try haha.
+principessa3x This one was from a place in downtown Toronto called Affordable Textiles. The crushed velvet adds so much magic!
This is inspiring me to start sewing again.
Love the color!!!
I love all your videos they're so good and helpful. Can you please do a tutorial on making an oversized long coat thank you x
Really nice, love, love them both! I'm making some! Class!
This is fantastic! I will have to try it! If your friend ever decides to sell her le fou kimono, let me know! It's a beautiful piece!
Thank you so much for showing my recreation of your cape.
+Spilling Autumn so happy to show it!!
Oh wow I thought you made both those kimono styled ones! Great job!!
omg u made it look so easy!
Where did you get that dusty pink velvet from??? I've been trying to find a fabric with a similar movement and beauty but just can't. Absolutely beautiful cardigan and kimono!
i love u wendy i m watching your channel since i was in 5 std . love u soo much from india
Can you show us how to make a plaid button down shirt? :D I found some really nice material at Joann's Fabric store but I just wanted to see how you would make your button down shirts because your tutorials are so nice and simple!
i love your hairstyle!
Thank you for this video. I like both styles
Hi, Wendy! I really love the clothes that you make. I'm still a beginner at sewing, so I'd really like to know how you cut your fabric, mine always ends up asymmetric :'(
Oh my gosh! I'm late to the party, but I love this! I do need some tips on sewing velvet, though - it slides so badly I can't get a straight seam.
This was awesome, I need to go get some velvet
Wonderful!!! I will do it!! 💕
Amazing video!! Thank you Wendy!!!!!!!
Amazing!! So doing this next! Thank you!
I love you wendy!!! I love everything that you make. 😊😊😊 💗💗💗 Love lots!
- From Manila, Philippines.
wish i'm in Manila too so I can get all the fabrics that I want. 😫
You ARE AMAZINGGGGGGGG! OMG 💕 I AM IN LOVE!
ooo super nice...new subbie....I must binge watch now lol
can you make kimono guides for a lighter fabric? like those v=beach cover up kimonos? :)
I loved it. these were amazing.
Trust us, more detailed tutorials in the video is not dry, Wendy!!! :-)

Thanks, luv! ;-)
You make sewing really fun
I love this video, is definitely my favorite.
for someone who's never made a jacket would you consider this fairly easy? I've sewn with velvet so I'm not too nervous but I've never done arm holes are anything like that
I love your videos they have helped me out so much😝❤❤
Just subscribed! Thanks so much! Love it!
this is so great, I can't sew but I want one... I'll have to learn :D
I just loved it, Im suscribing!!!
YOU ARE THE BEST
It looks so simple to make, but it's so cute! I think I need to break out my sewing machine~
This is so pretty I have some old velvet the only thing is that has lycra so is streaky would it would with this fabric too? Thanks for sharing this beautiful idea!!
+alager27 As long as the velvet has good weight so that it really drapes from the shoulders it should have the right silhouette. I'd avoid velvet with stretch though, will be harder to work with for the kimono style.
+withwendy Thanks for answering beautiful, yes that is what I figure, need to look for the right velvet ;) yours turned out so feminine and look light weight, need to look around the shops, Thanks a lot! Beso
will the second cardigan's pattern work well with a thicker material? thinking about making a coat similar to that
Is this Allan Gardens!? My old hood!!! Now I'm home (Toronto) sick and making a cardigan. (lol)
how did you learn how to sew? i want to make this so badly! maybe this weekend hmm ^__^
Also, how many yards did you have to buy for the velvet and silk for the fancy cardigan?
Mostly my mama and self taught through experience. That cardigan needs 2 yards of velvet and 1 yard of silk :)
What other types of fabric do you recommend for this cardigan other than velvet?
How did you get the measurements for the kimono style cardigan?
LOVE your tutorials and style! I know you said it's draining to put in too many details, but I was wondering if some parts could be slowed just a tad bit. (For future vids???) The cinematography is beautiful, but it's kinda fast. 😅
I understood the tutorial (because I've been seeing for awhile), but on some parts of the video, I was like "woah did I accidentally click 2x speed ?!😳" Lol
But yes, I agree with your comment! It'd be great if the video is slower just so the tutorial can be done by people of all levels of sewing skills since Wendy's creations are amazing 😊
You go so fast in all of your videos :(
Can you make a video on seams?? As in: types and which ones to use on certain fabrics)
Love your videos! I just subscribed 😊
