      After looking at my pile I realized that there are a ton of projects there 😂. We’ll see how much actually gets done!

    I would love to see your closet! You must be in heaven trying to decide what outfit to year each day.
    Another great video....thank you!

    Hi Whiteny they all sound fun to make. I think I will try to make some outfits for myself for thr summer. Can not wait to see your outfits finished.

    I am ready to work with linen; the possibilities are fantastic. Thanks for the inspiration. Excuse me while I shop! ~ L

    I LOOOOOVE that art gallery fabric- that you made the fitted top out if. So gorgeous.
    That's the kind of fabric that would look amazing even just as a binding!
    We REALLY do not have good fabric choices here at our main (& ONLY one) fabric/crafting etc store here in Oz!!!
    😢

    • @TomKatStitchery
      @TomKatStitchery  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you!! I’m pretty in love with that print as well!

    Yay! I am one of the people that bought the Butterick swimsuit pattern last Summer. I cannot wait for the sew along!

    So many great fabrics and patterns you’ve got planned! I’m actually working on the pattern adjustments I need to make the Love Notions Rhapsody top. I’m making the top with the 3/4 sleeve with flare. I love that style and have similar styles of it in my wardrobe already. I did make a wearable muslin using the pattern as is and only adjusting the bodice length but I found I wanted to make a few more adjustments still LOL... really probably just another excuse to make a second one 😂

    • @TomKatStitchery
      @TomKatStitchery  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It’s such a great pattern! I’m excited to make up my linen one!

  • @sallystapleton4237
    @sallystapleton4237 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I’m so pleased you are having a quiet month... plenty of time to rest..🤣🤣. If you get bored I could always help you out and send you my measurements..🤪
    I love the colour of your wrap dress on you ... perhaps get some linen in it as well... xx

    • @TomKatStitchery
      @TomKatStitchery  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Right?!! I looked at the pile and quickly dismissed any ideas of a quiet month 😂. My sister has started putting in orders as well!

    You made me tired just watching this video! Can't wait to see it all!!!

    • @TomKatStitchery
      @TomKatStitchery  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      😂 we’ll see what actually gets done!

  • @mbshanley
    @mbshanley 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I'm keeping my fingers crossed that you'll share how you alter the Pietra pants you've already made 🙂 I made the wide legged cropped version in linen and they are so super baggy in the butt. I will size down to 10 for next versions (although maybe 10 would be too small for the tapered version...so confused!). Like you, I'd like to try and slim the existing pair down without taking them apart! Thx for all you do!

    • @TomKatStitchery
      @TomKatStitchery  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I’ll see what I can figure out on that one and let you all know!

    i enjoyed this video. Since I watch the daily vlog, I have seen some of the garments already! I read a comment that said the video was interrupted by commercials essentially. I have never seen an ad on any YT channel, before, during or after the video. I have read that other channels have ads, but I have never seen them. Sort of odd I think. When you make the item from the last red you showed, pick a different lipstick than the one that was worn on the day of filming. From my screen they didn't blend. It might have been just my screen though. See you tomorrow!

    • @TomKatStitchery
      @TomKatStitchery  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      That’s so odd 😂. The ad thing is a bit confusing to me on when and who sees what!

    PSA: At the time of posting this comment, the Pattern Scout patterns are still on sale! Also, if you sign up for the newsletter, you get an *additional* $5 off by using the discount code! I bought the exact same patterns that you did, Whitney! I have been eyeing them for a while, and the square neckline is so beautiful!

  • @amandarenshaw2940
    @amandarenshaw2940 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Wow!!! You are going to be one busy lady! Cannot wait to see them made up! Just a note to say there seemed to be a lot more ads interrupting your video than normal.

    • @TomKatStitchery
      @TomKatStitchery  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I’m sorry about that! There is a button I have to select in monetization that I clearly didn’t do. I’ll go fix that!

    Apparently your linen addiction is contagious, I had to order some. And some art gallery prints, they are to die for. Love your energy, I hope that's catching too.
    Looks like your business partner is working part time 😆

    • @TomKatStitchery
      @TomKatStitchery  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It is contagious! And yes, I need to have a conversation with my business partner about her work ethic 😂.

    It’s interesting watching this halfway through the month when we’ve seen what you’ve done and what it still to come. Also, look at Hallå patterns for knit dresses. I just made the Agnes dress for me and the sunny day (I think...) for my kiddo.

    • @TomKatStitchery
      @TomKatStitchery  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I will definitely take a look at that pattern company! Thank you!

  • @beckyunderwood4220
    @beckyunderwood4220 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    A few other folks have been sizing down the Pietra pants, including Lisa K. in Spain.

    • @TomKatStitchery
      @TomKatStitchery  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Ya, I think that’s what I’m going to do for the next pairs!

  • @thaisoneon
    @thaisoneon 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I enjoy your videos and really appreciate the frequency of them. I’m pleading with you though to display things for more than a second. You flash things rather than display them. The camera often doesn’t have time to focus before you take them down. Please, thank you, and keep ‘em coming even if you ignore my request!!

    • @TomKatStitchery
      @TomKatStitchery  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      😂 I’m sorry! Is it the patterns that you’re referring to? I often don’t put the picture on the screen if I have the physical pattern with me, but I can definitely start doing that so you can see easier!

  • @ashleymainmakes

    What is the fabric of the dress you have on? Love it!

    • @TomKatStitchery
      @TomKatStitchery  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you!! It’s a cotton voile that I bought from Stylemaker Fabrics in February!

  • @evelyncummings3606
    @evelyncummings3606 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    So, will the solid red you have pair well with the red stripes for the Kimberly? Looks like it would pair well. Maybe you already have plans for that.

    • @TomKatStitchery
      @TomKatStitchery  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Are you eyeing my red?!! 😂 they are both from Joyce’s stash!

    What is your story Witney? Do you sew for a living? You seem to be very knowledgable about a lot of techniques.

    • @TomKatStitchery
      @TomKatStitchery  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I used to sew for a living. The TH-cam channel has now replaced the income I used to make doing alterations. I apprenticed with a dressmaker for a few years and then worked in a custom bridal/bridal alterations workroom for a few years and then did alterations on my own for a few years. I picked up quite a few tips and tricks during that time!

    • @dianemorrall2687
      @dianemorrall2687 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      TomKat Stitchery Wonderful! Great to have such practical skills. Thank-you for sharing.

      Janet Link for me it would be a simple guaranteed project after a difficult one.

    • @TomKatStitchery
      @TomKatStitchery  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      It’s an easy project that I know will fit and love!

  • @lynnleipold2617
    @lynnleipold2617 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I paid for the fern top pattern and had no successss downloading it from the link they sent. I only give you 25 hours,

    • @TomKatStitchery
      @TomKatStitchery  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hmmm. Have you tried emailing the company. It’s a one woman show, I believe, so I’m sure she’d love to help you out!

  • @lilybogaards5089

    Not making as much? Haha 😉💕

    • @TomKatStitchery

      Right?!! I looked at my pile and had a huge realization 😂.

  • @judysalmans879
    @judysalmans879 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Do you know how to get the patterns we purchased from AK before the new website. I have tried emailing her but she hasn't answered me and it has been a couple of weeks. Thanks

    • @TomKatStitchery
      @TomKatStitchery  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hmmm. I would try emailing her again. She seems to be back in full force now!
