Your dress is absolutely the cutest thing I have seen in a long time. You have a true talent when it comes to sewing and seeing something in a flat piece of fabric that can turn into a fabulous dress. Love your kitchen. Love your refrigerator.
You are right about the insert above the refrigerator making a difference. What a charming and sunny look The dress you made from a tablecloth is so creative and cute. How thoughtful of you to include sewing something for or with your nieces. Your videos are always refreshing and I look forward to each new one.
Love the dress! You’re so creative.
The dress is super cute. You are no way a beginner in sewing when you created a beautiful dress like you did. My Mom made all of my sisters and I clothes when we were growing up, she would be impressed with this dress.
Also the wood piece over the refrigerator is stunning. Such a great addition.
thank you! :)
Love the way you used an old tablecloth to make a beautiful dress....you have impressive sewing skills
Yes she does.
thank you! :)
Good morning Andrea! Your tablecloth dress turned out beautiful😍🤩 As a hand embroiderer with more than 60 years experience it just makes me so happy to see new young homemakers such as yourself turn our much loved but not longer popular hand done items into fresh new garments. Also loved the embroidered buttonholes you added to your dress.
Tablecloths like that take hours and hours of skilled work to produce and it saddens me greatly to see them tossed aside.
Aww I'm glad you like it! I know there are mixed opinions on cutting them up, but I love repurposing them & showing off the details!
That dresss!!! You are way beyond a beginner!! The way you were able to cut all those pieces to be symmetrical is AMAZING !!!! So cute!
Thank you so much!!
I have a full sewing setup in my basement and I hate it down there so much that I just don't sew anymore. Your sewing room makes me think maybe I should move my machine upstairs!!! Love your channel - found you from your sister :)
move it up!! 💃🏼
That piece is perfect above the fridge!👏🏻
thank you! :)
Love today's vlog. Such a joy every Wednesday. You put out positive and helpful content.
thank you! :)
You are welcome. Enjoy your evening.
When working with corduroy, remember there is what is called a ‘nap’ direction. This means all of your pattern pieces must be going in the same direction. I am sure you can find a video that shows how to do this. Good luck.
I have heard of that, but don't know exactly how to do it! going to have to look it up!
I'm only 2 minutes in to your video and Oh My GOSH That above the fridge brings me so much joy too!!!!!
haha well thank you! :)
Used to make my girls pinafores with remnants of eyelet that I found on sale. Such cute summer outfits with or without a dress or shirt underneath! Have fun!!!
Aww love that!
Your dress turned so pretty and unique! Love it and great job!
thank you! :)
The dress is gorgeous, and the buttonholes look amazing!!!
thank you! :)
Your dress is adorable. You totally pulled it off girlfriend. I love it!
Thank you so much!!
Daaaang, that dress was gorgeous! It would sell for hundreds at a place like free people! I love it so much
How cute is that dress??!!! I've always loved vintage tablecloths and this opens up so many possibilities of how to use them! Thank you!
right?! I love getting to use them in a new way!
@@Oursweetsunnydays Yes! Now to figure out how to use the seven tea towels for the seven days of the chore week my great aunt made. Been holding onto them for decades!
The dress is very beautiful especially because you managed to make it with the fabric of an embroidered tablecloth. The idea is beautiful, thanks!
thank you! :)
Love the gap piece! It makes a huge difference in the look! The fabrics are beautiful. You got great selections. Your talent for sewing is incredible. I love to watch the process and dream about doing it. ❤
thank you! :)
A dress from a tablecloth? So very creative and absolutely adorable!!! Love!!!
Thank you! 😊
You did a beautiful job on that dress. What a talent you have.
thank you! :)
Your dress is beautiful. So many details.! Just lovely
thank you! :)
Wow! That dress turned out amazing!
thank you! :)
You did a beautiful job on your dress. Well done Andrea. You are talented just like Lisa and Laura.
Thank you so much!
What a cute dress! How wonderful to be able to make your own clothes! Very talented young woman you are!
Thank you so much!
For the lime green corduroy, maybe seat or stool cushions for your kitchen!
I love spring too. And summer! Love to watch you make a home!
I love your dress. What a great job. Your fridge is awesome. I love the older appliances
Beautiful content! Lisa is right! You’re doing great!👏🏼👏🏼And the dress looks fabulous! Very sweet … the end with your healthy home made popsicle👌🥰
She is adorable!! And such vision for creativity!!!
thank you! :)
My mother taught me the basics of sewing, but it was not until I began to work at it the way you are, one skill at a time, that I became an accomplished seamstress. That dress is SO cute!
This encourages me! :)
The trim above the fridge is perfect.
thank you! :)
Winter is hard for me - I do try to savor the good parts and keep cozy but YES to that feeling of spring finally being here... it is always such a relief when the trees come back green and you know you've made it through. Love the dress!
couldn't agree more!
In home economics class during the 1960s, we learned to do button holes by hand. 😂
Hi there! New friend here from Portugal, Europe! 🙋🏼♀️ Just found your channel and fell in love with your videos! ❤ Can't wait to see more from you!👍😍 Have a blessed day!
Thank you so much!!
Matching overall dresses with the lime green corduroy!
I was thinking similarly! :)
❤❤❤ very calming!
You hit the jackpot on that sewing haul!
right?! i am so excited!
OH my gosh, what a great video!! Love the piece above your fridge and that dress!!! All the attention to detail paid off. It's gorgeous!
I love the painted custom piece above your fridge! So polished. Very cool.
I have basically thrown out all jeans, only wear leggings for pjs, and just wear dresses and skirts. Cotton or linen is SOOO EXPENSIVE!!! I seriously want to start sewing my own and for our daughter. This dress is sooo cute, you did a great job and so encouraging to watch. I miss sewing.
Aww you should! It's so rewarding.
Love watching you see!
Pretty touch above the refrigerator. I store my baking sheets in that same spot. Loving your sewing area!
I am in awe!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
The dress came out perfect! I love the little piece above your fridge! The perfect touch! I made egg salad this weekend after watching your video from last week! So glad I did!
Aww i love that! Thanks!
Super adorable dress! You're so talented!
That dress is a work of art and absolutely adorable!
Great dress, and the piece over the fridge
Thank you! 😊
Your vlogs are a joy to watch!😭🥰 and that dress😲😲😲I can't even!!! I enjoy sewing but mostly make clothes for my 2 and 4 year old but you make me think that maybe I should try sewing something for myself too. Also I love how there's so many different varieties of sewing styles out there and yet so much to learn from each other (similar to cooking). I definitely have my own way of sewing but I get so inspired by other sewists, too😊.
i totally agree! def sew something for yourself - you'll get years of wear out of it.
Wow, your dress came out so beautifully!!!
New subscriber here, coming from Lisa and Laura's channel, the dress is adorable and you are very talented. Nice to see such creativity in today's young ones, keep up the great work!
Creative stuff blooming!
Loved that dress. Ive seen many table cloths that were beautiful for dresses. So enjoyed this video. Im at beauty shop with my friend telling about your sewing project.
Thank you so much!
❤ oh my gosh that turned out beautiful you're really talented
thank you! :)
You’re so talented and refreshing in your colorful yet crisp style. I love your sisters but I’m out here cooking for 3 in my midcentury modern! Thanks for the relatable content 🙂
The dress turned out so dang cute!! I would buy that 😍😍😍
thank you! :)
I’m new to your channel and can’t get enough!!! Love your style and even the name of your channel lol I too love a good sweet sunny day ☀️😃
aww me too! :)
Loved the whole video! Your dress turned out so well and way to go on the pattern placement in cutting it out. I also really love the buttonhole design you did. Excellent tools really make certain jobs so much more enjoyable! I've had issues with necklines gapping and you can sometimes avoid them if you baste the top together with pins and pull the front piece up at the shoulder seam to make a new seam line. I've also pinched out a small wedge at the neckline on the paper pattern. Kinda tricky to explain without showing! I hate to leave a comment zeroing in on one tiny "issue" and leaving unsolicited advice when it really is such a lovely dress. Just hope it's helpful!
Thank you so much! I appreciate the tip - the neckline gapping was annoying me, but had no idea how to prevent it in the future!!
That dress is darling! Amazing job.
Thank you! 😊
Gorgeous dress!!!!! Please do a tutorial on those button holes! They are to die for ❤
That is the cutest dress ever!!!! I love the addition of the piece of decorative wood above your fabulous fridge. Sewing, any type of needlework is the best!!!!
i agree!
That dress came out amazing! You are so talented. What a fun way to repurpose a tablecloth!😊
thank you! :)
That dress turned out adorable! You did an awesome job. I love seeing young women make their own clothes. I made many of mine from the time I was 8.
That is awesome!
Wow! That turned out beautiful!!!
Thank you! 😊
I enjoy sewing, too. Glad to see the dress you made. The buttonholes were beautiful!!
Thank you! 😊
The dress is SO cute!! I love your videos so inspiring!

You're dress you made With the table cloth is beautiful you are very talented. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching
Love the dress, very boho with a little 60’s thrown in. I’m thinking you could sew professionally, you are able to take an idea and see it through to fruition, not everyone can do that. Can’t wait to see the next project
Your dress turned out do cute. You are giving me inspiration to sew some clothes which I haven’t done for many years.
Ooo go for it! :)
❤wow! What an amazing and one of a kind dress! 👗 Great job. I hope that the candles 🕯️ turned out well too.
What skills or projects do you want to try that is unique to you (maybe one your sisters don’t really do)? I’m a younger sister too.
What you made with the tablecloth is what is called a mock up. It’s of like a first draft and practice run. It is done to test the pattern and to make sure of any changes or adjustments before making it with either the real piece or more expensive fabric. I’ve made a few in less expensive cloth to test whether I like a pattern on me.
Your button holes!!!! so much better than mine! I avoid buttons and put zips in instead but with your embroidery machine, you are going to create wonderful things with your new skills and your existing skills. Thank so much for sharing your journey. I am loving your channel for South Australia
I avoid zippers haha! Thanks for watching!
❤❤the table cloth dress is so lovely and unique. Great job!!❤❤
Thank you! 😊
You are such a talented seamstress. I want to learn to sew! I have no idea where to even learn. ❤
