Embrace the bright colours! They really suit your colouring. Bright colours on myself, and other people, lifts my spirits.
Thank you very much 😊 Yes you’re right bright colours are lovely and uplifting aren’t they!
That dark green jungle print looks amazing on you! It’s absolutely your colour!!! 🐅 🌴
Thank you very much! 😊💚
I think the green print really suits your colouring. I think we started we often over-think our garments. I have yet to see something which you have sewed which doesn't suit you
Thank you so much 😊
Hello Cath! Thank you so much for the effort you put into all your videos. I’m really enjoying your Me Made series. I agree with your daughter in that the Fringe dress looks lovely on you, the style looks smart yet relaxed and the color suits you well. Honestly, most of your makes inspires me to sew them all because they are garments that suits my lifestyle… relaxed and put together. Have a great weekend! See you in your next video 😊
Hi there, I’m so glad you’re enjoying this series, I’ve been enjoying making these videos 😊
Thank you I think on consideration I like the fringe dress more having got it out and worn it again, I really like the colour of it.
Ahh thank you relaxed and put together is a lovely combination, so glad my makes inspire you!
Hope you have a great weekend too 😊
I have to say, every time you share your walk to or from your house, I just think what a lovely, peaceful spot, and I always wish I had a trail right by our house just like it. I love to hike, and we often will hike the trails as a family. You are so blessed to have such a beautiful walk near you. :)
Thank you, yes I love that we can step out straight into trails from our house, it’s one of the things that we loved about the house when we first viewed it 😊
Good morning Cath, thank you for all the work you have put into your Me Made videos.
You are very welcome 😊 thanks Mary
This has been such a fun series! Since I've followed you from the beginning of your channel, it's been fun to see your old makes. I remember watching your original videos when you made them!
You look so elegant and beautiful in the dress that you say feels too fresh to be a day dress.
And the green tropical with tigers looks amazing on you! Honestly, from the distance of the camera, I didn't even see the animals until after you mentioned them. I don't think it's too bright. It seems to be a darker hue, and it looks lovely on you, rather like the navy colors do.
Thanks for all you put in to your videos!
Thanks so much Tammy 😊 it’s been fun to revisit some of my older makes from back when I started the channel!
I do love the darker green colour in the green tropical print. That’s interesting to know you didn’t see the tigers until I mentioned them, maybe I’m overthinking them being on there. I do really like the rich green colour of the fabric.
I’m so glad you’re enjoying this series 😊 have a fab weekend and see you again soon
Hi Cath.
Just wanted to say how I've enjoyed your videos with your honest feelings of how you feel about your memade clothes. I think all sewers can really relate to how you're considering why you tend to wear or not your clothes - very worthwhile!
Hi there, I’m so glad you’ve enjoyed these videos, I’ve found it really useful to talk my outfits through on here, I’m glad you can relate to how I’m feeling about my different garments 😊
I agree that the green print brings color 2 Ur face. It reminds me of the mustard green dress. I think U are an autumn! Be blessed. Ciao
Thank you! 😊
I think your analysis of what you do or don't like about your outfits has been really interesting. The dress with green foliage and tigers looks so good on you in my eyes but it's your comfort and perception of personal style that matters. Thank you for all your videos this Me Made May..
Thank you, I’ve really enjoyed filming this series, it’s definitely got me thinking about my wardrobe.
I love the deep green colour on the dress with the tigers, I enjoyed wearing it more than I thought I would 😊
I love the Fringe Dress and the print looks lovely on you! I have made one Fringe dress and I think my next one will have the hem the same length all around for Summer. I love that tiger print and hope they still have some.
Thank you very much 😊 I think they do have the tiger print in stock and I believe it comes in a few different fabric bases too.
Cath I absolutely LOVE that green on you, totally understand it’s hard to wear something that doesn’t feel like ‘you’ but I think it looks so great on you xx
Thank you so much, I appreciate it 😊 xx
I think the length is perfect, very flattering!
Thank you 😊
I love your green dress, it looks beautiful on you
Thank you so much 😊
Hi Cath, another great vlog. You have a lovely area around where you live, I also have lots of oak trees around me, living so close to the New Forest, enjoy your weekend 🥰
Thank you very much, ohh the New Forest is beautiful, I’ve really enjoyed visiting there! Hope you have a fab weekend too 😊❤️
Yeah I think you should hem it up..the dipped hem is too long for you and I can see you feel uncomfortable in it. Just try pinning it and see how it looks
Thank you that’s a really good idea to pin it and see how it feels at the shorter length before I make a final decision!
The animal print is beautiful the hem is perfect
Thank you 😊
That fabric is beautiful and honestly you look lovely in it. One thing I do not like the dipped hem but that is just my personal preference, I would of preferred a straight hem.🙂
Thank you very much 😊
Hi Cath, great vlog. Love to hear your views on your makes. All great patterns. Must try Coco, it's a lovely shape. The Stevie doesn't look too boxy. Must try that also.
Thank you very much. Yes the Coco had a really nice shape! Hope you enjoy it if you try it, and the Stevie too! 😊
Thanks for sharing Cath. 💙🧶🌈🍓
You’re very welcome , thanks for watching Jenny 😊❤️💜
I actually love the Fringe dress on you. The animals in the print dont seem to be too dominant.
Thank you very much 😊
I can see what you mean about the jungle dress, but it's lovely and I think might just need a bit of lippie on for a bit extra contrast in your face to rock it!
Thank you 😊 ooh that’s a good plan for some lippie, I don’t often try that!
Cath would you kindly consider in future, adding details (with pictures) onto your blog, on how you hacked the Mandy boat tee neckline onto the Angus top please? I’m new to garment sewing and I’ve looked at both patterns (made Mandy boat tee before) but don’t have a clue how to do it. Thank you 🙏.
Yes definitely I will add it to my list 😊👍
@@madebycathcraft thankyou ❤️
Would be nice ro see more of your necklines, they are always covered by your hair😊
Thanks for the feedback, I will try to remember to pull my hair back to show necklines more clearly! 😊👍
Like you, i like a navy. I'm seeing a Nova jumpsuit after i saw yours. I'm waiting on more fabric- i don't know how i did it, because i labelled each piece, but i ended up with two Left-hand backs and fronts ...i am so disappointed as i was really enjoying seeing it. Since i had to order more fabric I also ordered some lavender jersey to make a second one.
Oh no, that’s a shame! It’s an enjoyable sew isn’t it, hope your extra fabric arrives soon so you can continue. A lavender version sounds lovely too!
The fringe dress looks lovely although I have the same feeling about the actual animals on me. Have you thought about using a dye? It wouldn’t remove the animals but they would be more subtle. The viscose would take a dylon pot dye but any stitching in polyester would not dye.
The white backed animal print Stevie would make a good pj top? I think it’s just not your colours. Great video and thoughtful outfits. Enjoying your series.
Thank you very much 😊 I hadn’t thought about using a dye, thanks for the idea!
That’s a good option for the Stevie top thank you! Yes I’m not sure it’s my colours.
I’m so glad you’re enjoying the series 😊
