Hi Chery, your Version is the prettiest and the more stylish, not "Mam home made" that I saw on net, really very nice ; thanks for all your wise tips, bizzzz, Sylvie
You look so darned classy Cheryl! Even though I’ve been sewing for many years, I still find it amazing that we can create our own garments with endless possibilities of fabric and pattern choices. That dress is wonderful on you. I’m just delighted for you that you have 10,000 subscribers. That’s amazing! It also means that the sewing community is growing...
thank you Loriann, yes isn't it wonderful we can create such unique clothes? Thanks for your kind words, it's a lovely community too, I'm grateful as many groups on the internet aren't half as nice as sewing friends.x
Don’t be scared to have so many followers Cheryl, I think that’s brilliant! I love watching your vlogs and trust your reviews....oh and I always love your fabric choices!
I love your reviews-they are always so detailed without being too chatty. By the way, you have the most amazing voice! I listen to audible books sometimes when I sew and I think you would be a great reader. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you, great review. I love the suggested fabric part of the review as I think that is difficult to pick what would be suitable. I enjoy your channel!
Your persistence and tenacity has really paid off and you have a beautiful dress! Thanks for this very helpful review! I love that poplin and it’s fun to hear your suppliers fun facts! 10000 is awesome and it’s because of your content and presentation which I appreciate very much!
Oh you are naughty! I love your fabrics now I am going to spend my pennies I love the dress the skirt is so flattering I am a member of the SOI PDF club and didn’t buy this pattern but now I will because I am thinking of making the skirt, thank you for a fantastic review and now am going to your online shop 🤗
Hi Cheryl, the dress looks great on you. Love the fabric. Your hair is really growing quickly now. Thank you so much for sharing and have a great weekend. Val🇨🇦🇬🇧❤️
Hi Cheryl, your dress is gorgeous and the print and colour suit you so much and shows off your lovely figure perfectly 💞. You always do fantastically detailed reviews of a pattern and this one is no exception 👌. It makes me wish that I was more of a dress wearer 😉😁💖😘
I made the same version. I definitely confused myself more than once to the point I had to walk away a couple times. It also took a lot more fabric, than I anticipated, but I get compliments on the dress when I wear it.
Love the dress, love the fabric. There are (thin, flat) clips with which you can pull in your bra straps to the middle of your back away, so they won’t show anymore. Turns regular straps in kind of racerback. I use that on sleeveless tops like this one, even when armholes fit well. Prefer it over inconvient, insecure strapless bras.
It looks lovely on you Cheryl. I hadn’t really considered this dress on versions Ive seen before. I had issues of gaping on the Vintage shirt dress and took darts on the sleeve near the shoulder. ( it was sleeveless luckily)
I guess appearances are deceiving because it doesn't look that difficult to put together, but thanks for the reviewing the pattern! I may give it a whirl!
Hi Cheryl - I am hoping to sew the Kitty Dress soon so your review and advice will be very helpful indeed. Yours looks beautiful and is so flattering. Px 😘
Hi Cheryl! Thanks for the super useful review. I've just bought the pattern and wondered about your measurements. Honestly I can't believe you cut a size 14! You look very slim :-) So if you don't mind, just so I have a good starting point (because grading between sizes on this pattern would be a nightmare!) could you share your chest and waist measurements please? I suppose the hip measurement doesn't really matter? iMany thanks.
Such a beautiful dress. It really fits you well and is very flattering. I loved all your tips but have a question about overlocking the skirt pieces before sewing them together. Usually once you've sewn a seam you cut some of the seam allowance away but I'm assuming if you overlock the individual pieces first you don't cut away any of the seam allowance. Is that correct? X
Thanks for the review. I am positive my skills are there yet and its nice to know before hand. I love your fabric choice too. Question: Your fabric colors & prints always complement your coloring. Do you consider that when choosing fabrics? I'd love to hear how or what you consider when choosing a fabric. As a beginner, it's disappointing to make a garment that doesn't work for my coloring or body type...thanks again for the video
donna foust thanks Donna, you can do it 💪🏻 I tend to just choose fabrics I like, it’s the ‘intake of breath test when I spot something 😂’ I’m drawn to earthy colours and pastels which suit me better than neon brights, although I’m working on a very bright wrap top that’s coming up soon, let’s see if it works 🤷🏻♀️😊
You do very well with your videos to make them seem as though you are talking directly to me in a small group. You've got it!
Ann Blachly aww thanks Ann 😊
I love your dress Cheryl! It looks absolutely stunning on you and that fabric is the perfect fabric for this pattern!
Myra Lorraine thanks Myra 😊💐

Sally Dingle thanks Sally, I too should wear more dresses, they can be easier to wear than choosing separates 👍🏻😘
I made the same version. I definitely confused myself more than once to the point I had to walk away a couple times. It also took a lot more fabric, than I anticipated, but I get compliments on the dress when I wear it.
Rina Smith I think it’s worth it, it’s a beautiful dress 💐

Lily Bogaards thanks Lily, great idea 😊
I love that dress on you. I have been eyeing this pattern and now I definitely want to make it.
Hey lovely girl. Your hair looks beautiful. My grow out looks about the same length. I took off 4 inches last month. I'm liking it so much now
thanks Dianna, I'm loving my new grombre :-) Good luck with yours too.x
It looks lovely on you Cheryl. I hadn’t really considered this dress on versions Ive seen before. I had issues of gaping on the Vintage shirt dress and took darts on the sleeve near the shoulder. ( it was sleeveless luckily)
Ruth Lanwarne thanks Ruth 😊
My arm holes are always too big on SOI patterns. Always end up taking in a huge amount on the side seams at that point.
It looks beautiful on you
Tracy Frost thanks Tracy, I’m enjoying wearing it 😊
I guess appearances are deceiving because it doesn't look that difficult to put together, but thanks for the reviewing the pattern! I may give it a whirl!
moniquedawn thanks Monique, yes it’s not a speedy sew but worth it in the end 👍🏻😊
Hi Cheryl - I am hoping to sew the Kitty Dress soon so your review and advice will be very helpful indeed. Yours looks beautiful and is so flattering. Px 😘

Congratulations on 10K! (But, really, it's just me!) Hugs!
peggydid thanks Peggy, hugs back 🤗 😘
Great review! The dress fits you like a dream. Is there a stretch lawn? Lol
Kathleen Barron thank you Kathleen 😊 ha ha I wonder? I haven’t spotted one but I bet there is..the stretch cottons might work if fine enough 👍🏻
Great review,
thanks Dee 😊
Soooo cute! I didn't know they had this one.
Thanks Helena 😊
Such a beautiful dress. It really fits you well and is very flattering. I loved all your tips but have a question about overlocking the skirt pieces before sewing them together.

Gaga Knits thank you 😊 yes, no need to trim any away, just aim for the edge rather than trim off. You can always dis-engage the blade too 👍🏻
I love your hair
brinagotsued thank you 😊

A halter bra would work, beautiful.
1950steele good idea, thank you 😊

Do you send fabrics to the US?
Beautiful dress you look stunning. I think you will get plenty of wear out of it. You will forget the agro it gave you. Meg
Meg Graham you’re right, thanks Meg 😊💐
Missing you and your videos. Sure hope you are doing well.
Donna Dannessa thanks Donna, just busy juggling work and school hols 🙄😊xx
