Awesome job! First, I was going to comment on your hair and say how nice it looked, before I even knew you cut it..Secondly, I love what you made for yourself and how awesome it was to see you turn a shirt and skirt into a dress. That looked sooo good!
I recently cleaned my sewing area and found two projects I had started probably upwards of four years ago. I think this year is a good time to finish them...they even still fit!
This was a fantastic tutorial, I like how you did this one. You get better and better Jen, thank you for sharing your wonderful knowledge and humor with us!♥️
I think your new haircut is cute. Short and sassy. I am in love with this shirt. My favorite is the second one and that is because I love that pattern. How can you not love animals drinking cocktails. Thanks for the video. Take care
OMG I totally missed this video somehow! Thanks so much for sharing the love. Also I love your impulse haircut, we've all been there. I absolutely adore these blouses!
I love love this top on you ❤️ You must make more! I purchased this pattern years ago and never made it! Guess I am now! Thanks for sharing your love of vintage and your sewing skills you are such an inspiration!
Love the idea of making a shirt & skirt in the same fabric to have the look of a shirtwaist dress, but have the versatility of separates! Also I am a clutz so having half the outfit wearable if a mishap causes a stain is great insurance on investment!
So stinking cute! I’ve yet to sew anything with buttonholes…this pattern might just have to be my first attempt! I can’t get over how much it really does look like a dress when you used the matching fabric. Kinda reminds me of Gertie’s Scout dress.
Yesssss!!!! If your machine does buttonholes it makes it not too bad! Now that you say that it totally does! I really need to get that dress on my sewing schedule!
Gorgeous peplum shirt, soooooooo flattering really slimming, neckline beautiful……. This pattern is so classy, it would look amazing in oriental fabric the shape is giving me Mitzi gaynor vibes in South Pacific. Loved the happy coat you made…. so glamorous. The hair too, that blunt nape shape being shorter makes your hair look fuller and thicker it really suits you. Another great sewing 🧵 video👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 kind regards Craig.
Love both tops on you but the yellow one is my favorite. It looks superb with both the pencil skirt and the gathered one. I find 1940s shape is very flattering to most women .
A curved ruler 😂 Love it. None of us sisters learned to sew but I always dream I can & think I could in a past life but in this life, I have bad learning differences. I'll keep up the baby steps but I need basic easy help to do 1940s patterns. I love this video. Helps me dream I can learn 😬
LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!!!!!! Damn, girl! Love the pattern! Also, the way you explain everything so easily and the beautiful fabrics you always choose. You look great in them! Thank you for sharing. Looking forward to your next video!
Love love love this pattern!! It looks absolutely fabulous on you! I used to have it years ago but I had bought the wrong size so gave it away. Had completely forgotten about it till now so thank you! I’m now going to be on the hunt for a copy! X
I absolutely love this top on you. Makes me want to drop everything and sew one for myself. Also I love your short hair. Super cute! and also barging with the kitty. I'm dead.
I just learned something... (AHA moment for me! ) when you were transferring the dart to the fabric. you used a curved ruler to help line up the line with the tracing wheel ~ Thank you for that hint !
Omg I LOVE HOW THEY TURNED OUT!! You are very talented 👏❤️..I love the top/dress you're wearing in the video too! Lol literally everything feels like it was 2 or 3 yrs ago 🤪
I love your hair! It’s the first thing I noticed, and I thought how good it looked on you 😍. I liked both tops.for different reasons. The darker colour is lovely, and will go nicely with your cigarette trousers, and any colour skirt. The lighter coloured top will be perfect for the spring/summer. I am glad you’re making sewing videos again 😄❤️
@@JenniferEliseI know what you mean! I hadn’t been to a hairdresser for 2 years, during the recent pandemic. I was starting to do a very good impression of Repunzel 😬. Last November I had about 2 foot cut off, and it now sits at the top of my shoulder blades. I gave my hairdresser strict instructions on how to cut a vintage horseshoe haircut. Now I can style the Rita Hayworth curls 😄. Anyway, your hair looks very pretty! 🥰
Love it! So pretty and I loved both fabrics you used to make the blouse - great eye for possibilities with the dark background fabric because holiday sure didn't come to my mind when I saw it. Just perfect!
Very lovely pattern, very cute on you, and great choice of fabric! I love the dark one better, but am very impressed with how the second looks good on it's own and sensational as a "shirt waist dress."
So I really love that print on the first shirt and will be searching for that fabric to make myself a dress out of it. But I love that second shirt so much paired with that beautiful peplum fitted skirt it looks amazing on you and those colors look amazing on you.
These looked amazing! I love the collar! The second one was so summery!! (Also I think you’re my mum’s absolute favourite TH-camr because she asks me every day whether you’ve uploaded 😅) The shorter hair looks really cute on you. Also every time I watch your videos I look at the fabric in the background and today I found that possibly tartan/plaid fabric that I love 😊 And mum just told me I should send you some of my sewing projects 😐 not sure whether you’d like to see them
It's such a good collar ❤️ Tell your Mom I said "hi" and give her a big hug from me. Ohhhh...that's a good fabric spot...its a good one. I always love to see peoples sewing projects! ❤️❤️❤️
I have to try the collared version now. You’re right! It looks so cute with the collar open. My first version was too wide at the shoulders and my fabric choice too stiff so I’m gonna dive in and give it another go after seeing your gorgeous creations. Thanks 😊
Yoy look STUNNING in that style,. Gonna draft me one of those bad boys and make it up in a black and white cotton that's just....hanging around. Great video, loving your sense of humour!
This was a lovely video. Such a great pattern. Wish I could get hold of it for myself. Although its 50s it still fits well for 30s for me. The abstract crosshatch is my preference. Not my colour choice but its looks wonderful on you and will be superb for those myriad casual outfits.
well now i want this pattern, i love the darker one. looks comfy and classy. on a side note i love the other one paired both ways the tulip skirt was a perfect choice.
The good thing about transferring it is you don't have to worry about damaging the original pattern and you instantly know the pattern fits once your draft and mock up are done. I think you should turn the old mock up into a kimono or something light to cover your shoulders like a bolero
Love this! Also, your hair looks adorable! I do a long middy cut on mine, so it's pretty much above my shoulders most of the time now, and most of my life I've had super long hair, so I get ya on the suddenly my hair is short oh my! phase! ;) I'm getting excited because I'm going to be starting the process of bleaching my hair from black to pale so I can get gorgeous magenta hair also! ;) Can't wait! Really love your videos. Your directions are so clear, and as a plus size girl myself, it's nice learning how to size up.
I LOVE how cute those tops turned out! They are definitely a combination of cute and comfort. I’ll have to check out peplum tops soon. Side note: do you have a good shirt waist dress for beginner sewists?
Thanks! ❤️ You know I haven't sewed up a skirt waist dress yet but I know that Gertie has a pattern that would be great that's available for free on her Patreon page, its the Scout dress. I suggest it because she also has a sewing video on it as well. I'ts definitely on my list to sew :D
Oh that is a great pattern and you look amazing! I have the original pattern buried in Grandma P pattern stash, now I’m wondering why I never made it up.
I love the animal print version but then again I have that skirt from you too! Also, did you see that kinks and quirks has an elephant brooch that I think goes soooo cute with that print? (so much so that I bought it to go with my skirt lol)
Thank you for this. I'm getting back into sewing and I'm thinking this blouse is my first sewing project. Also, the blouse (or top) you're wearing in this video is lovely. Is it from a sewing pattern?
Oh I looove this!! I'm definitely going to make a few for the coming warmer months. Also, where did you get those black capris? Or did you make them? They're adorable with the trim at the bottom.
Yay...I'm still obsessed with this pattern! The capris are from Di Brooks Outerlimitz. I have a few of her handmade items and they are amazing and pricing is so reasonable!
Did you sew the shirt you are wearing in the video? If you did, what pattern is it from? It's so pretty. I mean the one you are wearing, not the one you are making.
I love vintage fashion, but so much of it is form fitted or tucked in. I have a super high waist on a B shaped body, which means I have not one, but two tummy rolls and hold all my weight on top. Sigh. And since the top roll is larger than the bottom, belts or tucked in styles look horrible on me. Same with empire waist things. Basically everything makes me self conscious, but it's really hard to find anything that doesn't emphasize that I am basically an apple on stilts. Plus, since this isn't a very common body shape, there are no style tips out there. Another sigh. So, I will just admire your awesome fashion sense from afar.
Hugs. I know finding the right style that works with our confidence can be difficult. I have a lot of stomach issues which can lead to bloating and discomfort so there are days I can't even look at something form fitting or even that has a waistband. On those days I tend to embrace fabulous caftans and more of a 60s A line dress shapes, things without a traditional waistband and not clinging. If you haven't already this could be a fun fashion avenue to explore. ❤️❤️❤️
Ugh. This blouse is amazing. I need 40 of them
What a lovely top! I think your hair turned out very cute. It looks like the perfect length to rock some 30s styles
Aw thanks so much! I'll definitely be trying out some finger waves! ❤️
I have the shirt you are wearing! I love Unique Vintage. I look forward to all of your videos. I hope that you have a great weekend!😊
Aw thanks!! I love that top and its fluttery sleeves :D
Awesome job! First, I was going to comment on your hair and say how nice it looked, before I even knew you cut it..Secondly, I love what you made for yourself and how awesome it was to see you turn a shirt and skirt into a dress. That looked sooo good!
Aw thanks so much! ❤️❤️❤️
I recently cleaned my sewing area and found two projects I had started probably upwards of four years ago. I think this year is a good time to finish them...they even still fit!
It's so hard to get back into a project you put to the side but you've already done half the work!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Such a pretty feminine shirt - I love it! Thank you for taking us through the upgrading to a different size and attaching the peplum 😊
The impulsive haircut is really cute.
Thank you so much! ❤️❤️❤️
This was a fantastic tutorial, I like how you did this one. You get better and better Jen, thank you for sharing your wonderful knowledge and humor with us!♥️
Yay! I'm so glad you liked it! ❤️❤️❤️
I think your new haircut is cute. Short and sassy.
I am in love with this shirt. My favorite is the second one and that is because I love that pattern. How can you not love animals drinking cocktails. Thanks for the video. Take care
Aw thanks so much! ❤️ Animals with cocktails is the cutest!
Oh dear, your hair looks very nice on you .More 50s isn't possible ! 😍
Thanks so much...It was quite the journey in haircutting thats for sure. lol
OMG I totally missed this video somehow! Thanks so much for sharing the love. Also I love your impulse haircut, we've all been there. I absolutely adore these blouses!

A curved ruler 😂 Love it. None of us sisters learned to sew but I always dream I can & think I could in a past life but in this life, I have bad learning differences. I'll keep up the baby steps but I need basic easy help to do 1940s patterns. I love this video. Helps me dream I can learn 😬

I don’t sew but I love to see what you make!
That makes me happy to hear! ❤️❤️❤️
Love this top. Well done.
Thanks for this video! I'm working up the nerve to try this pattern for the first time!

Yesssss...you're gonna love this top! ❤️❤️❤️
Oh My Goodness! I just found you! I MUST HAVE those pedal pushers!
I'm so glad you found my little corner of the internet. ❤️❤️❤️ I got those from Di Brooks Outerlimitz. Her stuff is amazing!
Do you think you can show how to construct vintage brazier?
This was a lovely video. Such a great pattern. Wish I could get hold of it for myself. Although its 50s it still fits well for 30s for me. The abstract crosshatch is my preference. Not my colour choice but its looks wonderful on you and will be superb for those myriad casual outfits.
Yay I'm so glad you liked the video! Yeah I was sad to see that Simplicity isn't making the pattern anymore.
It’s so lovely. I feel like my style has become soo boring lately. This may just be the shift that I need to get back my mojo.
Yeah....lets get that mojo going! ❤️
Cute cut!
❤️❤️❤️
I'm loving this pattern as well. I'll have to pick one up and make a few blouses. Yours turned out great, and I LOVE that Christmas fabric!
I need to make even more!
It looks amazing 😍 I have this pattern in my stash and seeing yours makes me want to give it a go.
Oooo...I think you should! It's a fun sew!
well now i want this pattern, i love the darker one. looks comfy and classy. on a side note i love the other one paired both ways the tulip skirt was a perfect choice.
It's such a cute top!!! You will not regret it! ❤️
The good thing about transferring it is you don't have to worry about damaging the original pattern and you instantly know the pattern fits once your draft and mock up are done. I think you should turn the old mock up into a kimono or something light to cover your shoulders like a bolero
So so true. I am thinking of finishing it since I'm in the middle of a diet so it might actually fit soon. lol
Love this. I like how you did the collar. I don't like anything close to my neck either. I really enjoyed your videos!
Yay, I'm so glad you liked it and that I'm not alone in the neck thing! ❤️
Love this! Also, your hair looks adorable! I do a long middy cut on mine, so it's pretty much above my shoulders most of the time now, and most of my life I've had super long hair, so I get ya on the suddenly my hair is short oh my! phase! ;) I'm getting excited because I'm going to be starting the process of bleaching my hair from black to pale so I can get gorgeous magenta hair also! ;) Can't wait!

One big plus is it takes less time to do my hair now! lol Oooo...your hair is gonna look fabulous!

@@JenniferElise Thanks for the recommend, it looks so cute!
Supercute!!!
❤️❤️❤️
Everytime you said "peplum" I kept thinking "plumbob" haha XD
gah ha ha...love it! ❤️ (also I was just talking about the Sims the other day)
Oh that is a great pattern and you look amazing! I have the original pattern buried in Grandma P pattern stash, now I’m wondering why I never made it up.
You might have to dig that one out!
You look so cute!!!!
Aw thank you ❤️❤️❤️
I love the animal print version but then again I have that skirt from you too! Also, did you see that kinks and quirks has an elephant brooch that I think goes soooo cute with that print? (so much so that I bought it to go with my skirt lol)
I just looked and oh my!!! I might need to get that. lol ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for this. I'm getting back into sewing and I'm thinking this blouse is my first sewing project.
Also, the blouse (or top) you're wearing in this video is lovely. Is it from a sewing pattern?
Really cute! I like the solid orange skirt you wear with the second blouse. Did you make it, and do you have a pattern number for it?
I did!!! It's from Charm Patterns and is the Night and Day Dress pattern and its the Trumpet skirt variation.
I loved that skirt type too on her body, it’s sooo stinking cute 🥰 the top Is Gorgeous 😉love your hair also 😎
Back ties on clothes are a deal breaker for me too! 😬🙅♀️
Right!!!!! At least I'm in good company! ❤️
Oh I looove this!! I'm definitely going to make a few for the coming warmer months. Also, where did you get those black capris? Or did you make them? They're adorable with the trim at the bottom.
Yay...I'm still obsessed with this pattern! The capris are from Di Brooks Outerlimitz. I have a few of her handmade items and they are amazing and pricing is so reasonable!
Im glad I'm not the only one who hates a tight neck at the throat ! You are sew cute in your tops !! ps where did you get your pattern weights?
Did you sew the shirt you are wearing in the video? If you did, what pattern is it from? It's so pretty. I mean the one you are wearing, not the one you are making.
I didn't...it's from Unique Vintage and it has magical sleeves! 😊
The entirely real response to being offered 4 fillet o'fishes bc honestly same.
Right!!! LOL He's such a funny cat.
I love vintage fashion, but so much of it is form fitted or tucked in. I have a super high waist on a B shaped body, which means I have not one, but two tummy rolls and hold all my weight on top.
