    Thank you , I have this dress cut out waiting to sew it. I see I will have to make sure all the markings are in place before I do anything else . You did a very good step by step of making this dress Thank you again

      I'm almost done. Just the hand work to finish. I love the way this fits. I will be making several of these in different fabrics, mine is in the same green as in the pattern picture.

    I adore polkadots! That dress was extra treat for being spotty & somewhat I Love Lucy-ish. It looks fabulous on you 🖤🤍🖤🤍

    Wow, that collar and neckline was intense. Love your videos, in case I haven't mentioned. 😍

      Haha ... Yes, it was a bit of a tight squeeze to sew before opening up the back slit. McCall's 7948 has a very similar back facing, so I knew it would all work out. 😂
      Thanks for the kind comment -- so happy you love the videos. 🌺

    Thank you for posting this video. I am jumping back into sewing after a 20+ year hiatus. Picked up this same pattern and was feeling lost. Thanks to your video, I was able to finish the dress 👗

    What a lovely dress and the silhouette is perfect for this fabric! I keep holding onto some polka dot fabric but now may need to re-think my project, entirely. Thanks for sharing another great project😊

    • @Sew-Happy
      @Sew-Happy  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I'm glad you like it, too! When I saw this fabric, I knew a vintage pattern with few seams would be best. Polka dots are happy prints for sure. 😁

    I am so glad I found your channel. I have learned so much and am now making the Everyday dress. I was wondering if you could show how to add trim, like lace or ribbon to spice up garments. Thanks for all your efforts and teaching me to sew.

    • @Sew-Happy

      What a lovely message -- thanks for taking the time to comment. I'll be on the lookout for a pattern with optional trim and I'll post it when I do. 🎉

    I bought the patterns you made recently! I'm going to watch this one here. I don't do belts because they just roll up on me, but I do like seeing how it looks good on other people.

    • @Sew-Happy
      @Sew-Happy  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Nice -- sounds like you have some relaxing sewing time ahead! Party🎉
      I wonder if you might make a thinner belt that won't roll, reducing the width of the pattern piece by half.

      @@Sew-Happy Mari, I never thought about that. I gave up belts years ago because they always rolled up on me. I might try that.

    Back in 1950's 3 inch hem was standard, I only stopped doing that a few years ago.

    • @Sew-Happy
      @Sew-Happy  ปีที่แล้ว

      Very interesting -- thank you. It's odd, because the bottom of dress is slightly curved, so you would have to ease in the material for that deep of a hem. 🤕

    Wonderful tutorial. Looking forward to making the dress once I get the fabric. May I ask if you went with the recommend ease of the pattern? I want to make a size 18 for recommend bust 42 and the finished size shows bust 54.5. If it is the correct ease for the look I will make it but if it is best to go down a size or more I would love to know.

    • @Sew-Happy
      @Sew-Happy  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you for watching. 💕
      I did not make any adjustments and just cut my size as matched my measurements. 🎉 I believe the ease will be just fine, and is complemented by the cinching of the waist belt.
