I’m so happy you made a maternity dress! I am 5 months pregnant and I have 2 wedding this summer and I can not find any formal dresses under $60 that I like!!!! Totally making me one now!
Yay!!! Have so much fun :)
I will! And I will let you know how it goes!
Hey, friendly heads up: remember to either have enough seam to take it out or make the dress very close to the wedding, beause those bumps can trip you up and it'd be a shame if they don't fit at the day of. Just something to be aware of.
ya, im not pregos but my cousin wife is ( until tomorrow, shes getting induced) and I wanted to get her a nice maternity dress but like plus size clothing maternity cloths are limited in style and colors and just look like ugle curtains made into shapless dresses. Plus the ones like this beautiful and nice are over 100$ so its ridiculous.
Just a heads up! Asos has a gorgeous maternity line with free shipping over $50 and free returns! I love their formal wear I just got my graduation dress from them!
It looks beautiful, and would also make a great maternity wedding dress. That festival vibe becomes a nice mother earth vibe in maternity.
It definitely could be a wedding dress as well!
Aww, she's so beautiful! The dress looks absolutely perfect on her, I love the way the lace frames the baby bump
PoisonTheOgres I agree! Love it more on her than how it was before on me! Lol. Thank you ❤️
That so sad..hope u get better soon
Beautiful transformation. I remember your alterations 2 years ago, this is soo much better, I think because of new layers of fabric, your design and more importantly because of glory of momma to be.❤️
You are so talented. You have a real gift. Not only are you beautiful outside but inside too. I really like how you make all your family and friends look beautiful in your creations. You are gifted. ❤
The dress is so beautiful, and so is the mama! The area you filmed outdoors is so pretty!
April I thought you were pregnant when you said "a little life update for you" in the beginning :D
LOL..Everyone's over here getting pregnant, while i'm here breaking my foot :P
coolirpa hoping for a speedy recovery
anastasia smith I did :)
Ssaaammmeeeee
@@coolirpa when you get married ?
absolutely beautiful. The pictures are going to be an incredible memory for their little family. Thank them for allowing us to be a part of that.
What a stunning dress you made for Eddie's sister-in-law. And the reveal at the end with her and her partner is just wonderful. So sweet and loving.
This is so pretty! I love how you took an old garment and made it maternity-friendly. How cool.
Lovely for Eric's bro and sis in law to have such a beautiful memory of her pre baby gorgeousness. I hope she safely delivered a healthy little niece or nephew for you and Eric to love on. Xo
That lace overlay is so beautiful - really gorgeous cape shape. I would love to have a dress like that... in a different color. The ivory makes it look a bit like a wedding dress, perfect for a summer outdoor wedding.
You could do reactions, watching old videos, tips & tricks, stories about when you started out, sketches of projects you'd like to try one day... there's so much.
Keep up the awesome work. DYI and transforming something old is where it's at! Great job.
this dress looks stunning on her and the color makes her glow so much. absolutely love this look!
The dress is so beautiful. It made me cry! She is so beautiful! I hope Coolirpa, you can make more dresses for women of all shapes and sizes, especially for curvy girls. Love you girl! 💖
Omg this actually is way better than I thought. The lighting was really good for the tone of the dress. It made it seem more soothing. I love you did a little montage for them, it's a good little memory. I wish I would've done a maternity shoot when I was pregnant 🙁
Post a video on how to make a proper corset ?
Harpreet Kaur Omg yes proper corsets are such a fun and rewarding project! Especially fun to learn a new skill working with busks, boning, and a real patterning challenge. I fully fully second this idea 😍
I third this. I've been obsessed with corsets lately.
I fourth this!!!!
I fifth this!!
Sixth!!!!
The transformation was beautiful and the couple absolutely adorable
I love this. Im so glad you did a maternity video because im pregnant and im looking for alternatives to buying an expensive prom dress. This is so helpful. Thank you!!
That dress is amazing. She looks like a fertility goddess! You are so talented. Thank you for sharing and thank you even more for admitting your mistakes and how you corrected them.
The end of this video was a lovely moment and I glad they shared it with us.
Love how the new fabric so much better matches the original lace.
You must have read my mind I was reviewing some of your videos and was going to ask about this dress. What a beautiful dress and the model film was so tender and expressive. So sorry that you hurt your leg prayers for you and get better soon.
Omg this dress is so cute 😍 my boyfriend and I aren't even close to ready for kids yet, but when I am at that point in my life, I hope I can have/make dresses and stuff that will look as cute as this!
I'm sure you will :D If you see a cute secondhand dress that might have potential in the future, GET IT! I've kept this dress in my closet for 2 years waiting for the right moment :P
Omgosh. You're so talented!! I seriously am jealous of people who can sew and or knit. It was so nice of you to make the dress and it turned out beautiful.
She looks like an angel! I remember the old dress & LOVED it and now I see this 😍😍 you’ve grown so much, like please never stop what you do!! You’re AMAZING 💖
What a beautiful dress!!! And beautiful model for the dress too.
Also as a suggestion while your leg is healing, maybe a beginner series? Such as how to sew, how to start, etc? It can be done with scraps you have around the house so you don't have to shop around.
yes! especially with knit stretchy fabric. i changed the needle & it made a huge difference.
This brought tears to my eyes. She looks so beautiful and classy. I'm definitely making this if I ever have a baby shower
The way the lace drapes makes her look like an angel.
I love the dress but I love Nou even more !!! What a fantastic model!!! Well done by all!!!
Wow, the dress looks amazing, and she looks elegant and beautiful.
Wonderful job!
I like that u use that old lace another person would have just thought it out. Beautiful. I hope u get better soon
Hope you heal up well and quickly! The dress is so stunning. I loved the lace cape on the original when you first showed us, so I'm glad it has a new life now.
When I got the notification, I thought, that you are pregnant 😂
SAAAAME!!!!!!
Me too 😂
Right. I was like when did that happen?
Me too!
Katerina Krasova same!
By far the most stunning maternity dress!
So beautiful, elegant, stylish & graceful, with the lace Cape playing off the fitted part of the dress, but also looks like it's super-comfy at the same time it's totally glam/elegant!
- Wonderful, fun & informative video as always - Thanks again!
- I loved the sweet reveal & the lovely energy between the expectant parents.
- I'd also love to know where that portion of the video was shot.
Incredibly beautiful.
I love this but I just forgot that I don't need one anymore! I literally just had a c-section 4 hours ago lol ughhh. Fantastic job, very beautiful material!!!
I really want to know how you broke your foot. All the details please
True...
How I wished this tutorial was made a few weeks ago. This is my last weekend pregnant as my daughter is scheduled to be born on Tuesday. She looks beautiful!
You are the most creative on all your project , you’re a genius 😍😍😍
It makes me want to start sawing again ! I enjoyed watching all your videos and all your creation ! You’re also very eloquent and so easy to follow the instructions on all your videos 😍😍😍
She looks so beautiful and that dress is gorgeous! Absolutely love!!
You should do more of these! Sidenote: I binge watched all your videos while I was pregnant and was in need of altering some of my clothes to fit my baby bump ): but alas, bookmarking for next time!
The montage at the end literally made me tear up. Beautiful job!
The dress is amazing!
They look so happy, congratulations to the happy couple!
beautiful, your so right maternity dresses are super expensive. You did a bang up job as always. love it!
What a lovely gift! And I hope that you recover quickly.
This is such a beautiful dress!! It's really flattering, and it looks professionally made😍 amazing job, and I hope you get a speedy recovery💙💚💜
Thank you so much!
This is a beautiful, ethereal look. I loved the dress on you and now her as well!
Me encantó 💕👏😇 sigue así ...desde tiempo te sigo y con cada vídeo me sorprendes como estas creciendo en que es confeccionar y diseñar ... Felicidades 🙌
This design could make a lovely wedding dress too 😳🥰
I'll be taking fashion and textile technology this coming August and your works are inspiring me alot! I hope to be just as creative as you are 🤗
This was awesome! I think since you’re going to have a lot of downtime with your broken foot you should go digging through your closet and see if you can revamp some already owned clothing. Diy with what you already have
XxBroadwaygonnabexX I agree! That would be awesome to go back to old projects and your own clothing and touch stuff up!
I would love to see more maternity diys! All maternity clothes are expensive and I'd love to see more alternatives.
An awesome result for your first maternity dress!! It's so pretty, good job 😊
The ending is so cuuute! I'm crying!
I hope your foot heals soon! Very cute maternity dress transformation. I might have to try something similar.
The dress looks fantastic!
The dress turned out so pretty! ! ! Also I hope your foot heals fast!
she looks angelic in that dress
Amazing looks almost like wedding dress. Nice views with drone too.
So did so good!! the end bit when she where she was wearing the dress was so heart warming awww!!
Oh that dress and your SIL look gorgeous!
They look so cute together. You did a great job with the dress.
Thank you :)
I'm so excited you made a maternity dress!!! This has just made my day!
Thank you for watching Manda :D
This made me tear up. This was really beautiful.
You always find the most beautiful locations to film
I have just been following you for about 2 weeks. This is my first comment. You are so very talented. I have truly been impressed by your abilities. This dress, though? April, I am blown away! I have not seen the original transformation yet. Was the lace in the form of a cape on the original? Just asking because it really makes this dress stand out! Thanks for sharing your talent! Prayers of healing!💕🙏💕
So pretty !! ❤ I wish you a speedy recovery April !
Omggg, I've been following you for so long and I'm also expecting my 2nd child in 3 months. This is totally exciting! ❤❤❤
hope your recovery is smooth. it would be very fun too see types of diffrent shawls.
So gorgeous! You are the inspiration to why I started sewing. I'm finally preggo afrer 10 yrs and I'm so doing this
Omg the dress is so beautiful and elegant. Good job!
Beautiful dress. Some ideas for more projects...simple slippers, a circle coat with or without sleeves in different lengths ( the kind with the wide collar) trapezoid dress.
How beautiful! Great job on this one; thanks for the reminder to understitch the lining!
Oh maybe you could make a compilation video highlighting different sewing techniques like how to sew hems or how to sew in zippers, that way its possible to use footage you already have, and just explain the processes in more detail, I know I would like to see that!
I would love to see some thrifted transformations on nursing tops/ dresses. I am almost done nursing my little boy and had very little luck finding nursing tops/dresses I liked that were affordable. I would love to be able to make myself something the next time around. I mostly wore a lot of over sized t shirts. Not flattering.
I love it! I've never seen a boho maternity dress before. So cute! I would like to see you make some more boho outfits! :)
Oh I loved that beige dress! I made some screenshots of it to recreate it. But you made a beautiful other dress out of it !
It looks amazing ❤
I hope your foot heals fast
(Btw the average amount of time for a cast to be on is around 2 months but you might still need to use a special boot
But it verries depending on the type of break)
I was wondering about the seem down the middle. When I shop that's one of my biggest pet peeves I find in clothes 🙈 but love the dress other than that! The lace is so pretty!
Remember when the model tried on the dress and it was fitted around the bump? By having a seam there, the alterations could be more exact. Fitting a bump correctly requires more seams because you are tring to fit a flat surface (cloth) around a curve. Its the same basic principle when making garments for a large bust
The dress is so pretty and the footage you got of them is so wonderful 😍❤
WOW. Absolutely stunning. I’m blown away.
I’d love to see you try some embroidery 💕
I like it!! It celebrates the baby. Beautiful!
Great transformation. She is beautiful pregnant! Wishing them all the best. Sorry about your broken leg!! My husband broke his Ankle April 1 and it is May 20th and he's still not weight baring. I think it will be quicker for you though as you are younger and your bones will heal quicker. My husband is 55 yrs old so it will take some more time. It really sucks though!! Would love to hear how you broke it. (my husband twisted his ankle walking down the front steps!!)
I love your videos so much. I hope you heal up fast. Maybe you can make DIY stuff for your cast 😅 Anyways, I look forward to this video a lot. I just had my little guy a month ago. I wish I could have followed this video while I was pregnant. It was impossible to find affordable maternity clothes in my area. I just lucked out and was able to wear most of my regular clothes. throughout my maternity.
This is absolutely beautiful! You’ve outdone yourself!!!
would love a “boyfriend sews” video
Awesome job. What a sweet thing to do. She looks lovely.
its is beautiful, the dress, your sister, the photo shoot. wow empowering. its very 60's i feel and love every bit of it. maybe try a photo shoot in a magical forest.
Awe... How absolutely beautiful and precious. 💓💓💓💓💓
I love how beautiful you reinvented the dress! and congratulation!
Hope you have a speedy recovery!
Also, have you ever dyed fabric? For example, making faded jeans look blue again or changing a light shirt color to be darker? I messed up a black jean jacket by throwing it in the wash and I don't want to throw it out because other than being faded it still fits perfectly.
Kassie you could probably just dye it black with fabric dye
Kassie th-cam.com/video/jET-357NYyQ/w-d-xo.html This is a pretty good tutorial! Adding the dish soap is something you don't always see/hear about in other videos/blog posts; it makes sense and I think that it makes a huge difference in your material absorbing and holding onto the dye better! Be forewarned, she talks a lot in the beginning. lol You can skip ahead a bit for actual info!
Kassie Also, Rit dye is fairly inexpensive. Michael's has a 50% off coupon out now! ;) Just sign up for text messages/e-mail.
Yvonne Villalobos I really appreciate all the info and the video link :). Thanks a lot!
Kassie Yay! :D You are welcome!
It looks wonderful! Another skilful transformation. I wish you were my sister in law!
Beautiful dress and great drone shots.
How is the cape portion of this dress made? Is there a video on that? My daughter would like a cape added to her sleeveless dress to cover her arms. I love your work! You are so inspiring! Thanks!
I just found you! Spending hours watching your videos. Just beautiful!!!
You can’t tell us you broke your foot and not say how it happened lol
I will share it in my next video lol
