- Think this is going to be my summer staple series. Today I'm taking a thrifted bed sheet and making the cutest little tie-front top. Subscribe so you don't miss the making of the shorts.

Awww this was so cute Julie! I like the extra details you added like the curved hem, and I was glad you found a way to incorporate the border checker print in the sleeve. Always fun to follow your sewing process, thanks for bringing us along
Thank you so much! I really like how this one came out and am already mentally marking fabrics for the next version LOL
This screams summer!!!
cute duo. and you were able to use the border. lovely.
Thank you! 🥰
Now I need a floral short set, thanks a lot 😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣 anytime!
Omg I love the colors of the mock up!!! And I love the final project!!!
Thanks! And I'm so sad because in the frenzy of re-doing the sewing room I think I threw that mock up out!!!
That set turned out so cute! I love the fit of the shorts and I think keeping the checkered edge on the sleeves is a fun detail❤
Thanks so much! I’m really happy I found a way to incorporate the border 😊
What a fun outfit! I'd buy this pattern, just saying... 👀
🥰🥰🥰 I've been working on what I thought would be my first pattern but it is taking longer than I would like. Maybe I bump this one up...
That looks so comfy!
Thank you! It really is perfect for these ultra hot days ahead!
Very cute. I love that you incorporated the border on the sleeves.
Thank you! I’m so happy I found a way to use it. I feel like it gives the top and the bottom some much needed differentiation
Super cute!!!
Thank you! 😊
Cute!
Thank you 🥰🥰
I think it’s cool that use Adobe Illustrator to draft. I’d to eventually learn how to use that software.
Thanks! It makes the process so much faster!
? How long have you had that sewing machine? How do you like it? Do you embroider with it? How has that gone?
I’ve had it for almost 2 years now and I LOVE IT! I do use the embroidery function as well. It can only embroider small or almost medium sized images with the attachments that come with the machine but that’s perfect for my kind of use. It’s a pretty intuitive machine in my opinion.
@@thecuratedcurvy TY for your quick response. My current machine (although not old at all if stripped because of doing a couple heavier projects - not that heavy - imo) Your machine doesn't seem expensive (which is GREAT) so I am wondering if you use that machine when you are sewing thicker materials. Fleece, velvet, corduroy, denim, etc.? I only have small embroidery in mind at this point, but wonder, with being new to it, if it would be too cumbersome or fiddly.
@@Northandsouthsewing you’re welcome! The price was definitely a major part of why I bought it. I use this machine for everything. When I first got it - I also had a singer heavy duty which I thought I would use for thicker fabrics but I eventually donated that one to my little sister and since this is my everything machine. I love to sew with denim and have never had a problem with the thickness of it. She really is a workhouse of a machine, imo. I sew just about all of my clothes and as long as I clean it out about every two months (I do it myself) it runs relatively smoothly.
@@Northandsouthsewing the embroidery part I found to be rather simple to get going. This is my first embroidery machine so I had no prior experience
The time you took to go on the computer I would have recut the sleeves. I do not understand why you all just go by the pattern and do not look at ypur own measurements. Patterns were not made to fit black women, we always have to alter things like, shoulders, waistline, hips, sleeves.
I created the pattern… I took the sleeves from another pattern I created, which was meant to have a more fitted sleeve therefore it wasn’t working with the vision of the pattern that I was attempting to make in that moment…
