    You are such a positive influence to make the inside of your garments as beautiful as the outside! After 60+ years of sewing I’m following in your footsteps!!!!

    I love the modifications to the dress! I'm not usually a frills and ruffles girl, but I think you did it just right, perhaps because the fabric (which is beautiful) is more of a modern print. Your sewing machine must fly at about 100 mph to get all these projects completed!

    • @cookeka
      @cookeka  ปีที่แล้ว

      You had me smiling regarding the speed at which I sew. I take breaks to ensure sewing remains my happy medium. Yes, the fabric is gorgeous which made the ruffles work. Thank you for watching!

    I really enjoyed seeing your sewing space. I know I started out on my kitchen table. Then I was able
    To have a dedicated sewing room. It is so nice to be able to leave my project, & come back
    Later & finish it, without having to pick everything up.
    Your dress is very classy ! Can’t wait til see it on you. Love your shirt too. Can’t wait to see how you tie that
    Outfit together. Thanks so much for sharing !

    If you don’t mind can you share the size you make and your measurements. That will be helping for me to figure out what size to make.

    • @cookeka
      @cookeka  ปีที่แล้ว

      Amalia, thanks for watching. I am between size 10 and 12. I recommend you cut your size from the sizing of finished garment on pattern envelope.

    The dress with the flare at the hem (its the grey and black spots ringed in khaki) is GORGEOUS!!!!!!!! So lovely. Great job!! Where did you get the fabric? It's so chic and then can be worn with a pair of sneakers for fun. Really terrific work! Congratulations.🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾❤(P.S. A Babylock Evolution serger is WORTH THE MONEY!!!!)

    Great ❤sewing space. You have it well organized. Where did you source the fabric of the garment (dress) hanging next to your gingham blouse? I love that print. And by the way I love the add of the small ruffle between the seams on the upper part of the dress.
