I use to work at a fabric shop in the 1990’s. I love Mettler thread. My top favorite thread brands are mettler, gutermann and coats n Clark. I learned that the wool pressing mats are meant for the heat to pass through the bottom so make sure your not pressing on your plastic cutting mat. 😅 Balloon pants, I think they also call them lantern pants. I just saw some made in linen with a pleated detail at the bottom. They were very cute. Oh I want to see how the ball dress turned out. 😊
Please try to fit more videos into your hectic schedule! Your personality is so uplifting...I think I said that correctly. Anyway, I look forward to seeing your videos. Thanks for sharing!
Hi Brittany, I really like the tweed material. You remind me when I went to Jomar (Philadelphia, PA), I saw some tweed material for $2.00 a yard. I purchased 8 yards & paid $16.00. However, I still have not made anything 😮😊. Hopefully, I will be making something soon. 😂 thanks for sharing!
Love the fabrics! Especially the chenille tweed!! So much so, I went to Hobby Lobby and got some. ( I’m in AZ) it ended up being stored underneath the displayed fabrics!! Love watching you and hope you do some sew-a-longs with the fabrics you shared! ❤️
I bought a bunch of Sara Flex spools earlier this year and still haven’t used it due to time, but am so excited to use. I hate zig zag stitch and the double needle hems with a regular machine. I don’t feel like buying a cover stitch just for hems either so am hoping the Sara flex will be the miracle I was looking for. 😊 The ironing mats are interesting too! I may have to look into that.
Fun video! I've been thinking about the bias tape maker too but need to aim my budget at a new iron - maybe some day. Oh, the pants in the Simplicity pattern 9907, with the apron, those are called Barrel Leg Pants.
I haven’t heard about Mettler elastic thread before now. I have been using Coats and Clark Eloflex. That’s also a an elastic thread. It threads in both the upper and bobbin spaces of my machine. I find it to be a great thread! So I’d like to try the Mettler brand. Thanks for talking about it 🙌💃
I heard about Eloflex and Meraflex from Gutermann. Haven’t tried those though but thank you for sharing that you’ve enjoyed Eloflex, I may have to check them out too!
Hi! I really enjoy watching your channel. I made a coat (S9186) out of that same tweed. It is really nice. I'm looking forward to your video on the making of the bias tape. Enjoy the ball! I know you're going to look great!
Oh really nice fabric pickings. You inspire me so much my fabric is currently in dormant smh... I really need to do better I think I might start a small project so I can get back into the swing of things. But I'm excited for your sewing projects and can't wait to see the finished garment ✌🏾🫶🏿 oh and the black dress tomorrow yaas gurl 🙌🏾
I am about 70% through the mccalls jacket pattern doing view B and I am so proud I made it through the welt/gusset pockets I’m scared of the zipper and the snaps. I want this jacket to be long lasting so I hope it works out. I used hounds tooth denim from Joann’s.
@@leepayk-bann3489 I have that pattern too! I’d have to length the skirt some for my comfort but I should definitely see if I have enough fabric for it! Thanks for the reminder ❤️
Two words for you: Zipper Tape! It’s a long zipper, rolled up, that you can cut. It comes with zipper pulls. You bar tack the bottom end. There are tons of TH-cam videos “how to.”😇 Happy sewing 🧵!
OMGosh, I have 2 rolls of zipper tape but it’s not invisible zipper tape. I didn’t know they made invisible zipper tape! I’m about to google that now because that will be a game changer! Thank you for sharing this!
Love the fabrics Brittany and the Mettler threads also had my eye on the bias tape maker were did you purchase the maker from. Also Brittany I signed up for your newsletter but still have not been able to received it.
Hi Angela, I’m not sure what is happening with the newsletter, but I haven’t sent one out in a few months. Next time I do, I’ll be sure to email it to you directly until we figure out what’s happening. ❤️
Keep up the good job. You’re always so spunky.

Hi Brittany, thank you for this review. I would love to see an overview of the bias machine.
Hi, great video 🙌👍

Love your material
I love the Mettler Seraflex thread. I started sewing my own workout clothes and that thread is a game changer.
Lantern shape 😊for the pants…..❤ love them, and I like the apron too.

Same, I’m not a fan of the zig zag stitch on hems or topstitching so I really am enjoying this thread.

Yes!!!! Barrel leg pants! Thank you so much❤️
You are going to be doing some really serious exciting sewing! ❤
I’m ready too✂️✂️❤️

Thank you so much Donna! I bet your coat is stunning! I can’t wait to use this fabric!
Yes show us a tutorial for the simplicity bias tape maker
I am assuming they’re called barrel pants, as there are apparently very much in fashion at the moment
Yes, they are trending for sure! And thank you, it is Barrel!
Oh really nice fabric pickings. You inspire me so much my fabric is currently in dormant smh... I really need to do better I think I might start a small project so I can get back into the swing of things.
But I'm excited for your sewing projects and can't wait to see the finished garment ✌🏾🫶🏿 oh and the black dress tomorrow yaas gurl 🙌🏾
Thank you so much and yes, start small and enjoy the process. You’ll be sewing through your fabric stash and making beautiful things in no time❤️✂️

Yasss! That’s awesome! Before doing the zipper and snaps on your jacket, test it out as many times as you need on scraps and you’ll nail it! ❤️✂️
@@brittanyjjonestv thank you!!!
Mccalls have a pattern for a matching skirt and jacket in a chanel style it would be great for the Tweed.
@@leepayk-bann3489 I have that pattern too! I’d have to length the skirt some for my comfort but I should definitely see if I have enough fabric for it! Thanks for the reminder ❤️

Is there invisible zipper tape? I’ve only seen it for a regular zipper.
@@bodyandsoul17, I haven’t seen rolls of invisible zipper tape, but it might be worth a deep dive on Google.

Where can I get the bias tape maker at?
Are they called lantern pants? 🤔
I thought about lantern too but I think Barrel pants is the name. Either way, I can’t wait to make them lol. Thanks for watching❤️
@@brittanyjjonestv oh yeah, that’s it 🙂
