I really enjoyed this! Thank you. Im getting back into sewing after a 3 year break since having my son and I always enjoy your pattern recommendations.
A thoughtful collection of patterns! I thought it was good that you included more formal trousers as well as the dress which can double as a pinafore, and a simple but very wearable skirt!
Thank you, Rebecca. I enjoyed your selection of patterns. Choosing a tank dress as a basic was inspired. You have a thoughtful foundation for others to build upon. Great podcast!
I'm currently making my first capsule wardrobe. I don't need sweaters, jackets or coats in my climate, so I would add a shirt dress which can also be worn open as a duster. I have The Assembly Line Shirt Dress pattern but haven't made it yet. I would also add my two most made patterns, the Rue Blouse and Clo Bias Skirt, both from Soften Studio. Quick to make, require few to no fit adjustments, and are versatile pieces that look elegant.
Love your suggestions. I would also like to know more about the patterns. Do they give you apex marking, waist marking. Do they offer bust sizes? Height files? I find most patterns give you basic horizontal info but the vertical data is missing. I know it's a little extra work, but it sure helps me decide if I want to try a pattern company.
Thanks! Those are great points. I think the majority offer lengthen/shorten lines at pertinent points, as well as instructions on how to adjust for height differences. Some offer different size ranges to accommodate bust measurement, and most mark waist/apex/etc points. I think doing individual in depth pattern reviews would be helpful and I'll consider that in the future!
Great list of basic patterns. The only downside of the Nano Iro book is that it is only for smaller sizes. It has beautiful patterns and fabrics, though. I think I would go with Helen's Closet for the tanks dress as I have made a few of her patterns, and I can get them to fit me well. Thanks, Rebecca! Yes, I would enjoy a video of a 10 item capsule from your handmade wardrobe.
I'm glad you like the list, thanks for the great feedback! I agree the limited sizing is an issue, I just love the silhouette. I’ve made the Helen’s closet dress as well and also really enjoy the fit!
This was a very fun video, loved the format and the recommendations. Would definitely love to see a complete wardrobe video!
Thank you!
Thank you for all of your time and energy you put into these videos! I look forward to them. 10 capsules from your closet would be great to see!
Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoy them :)

I love the idea of a shirt dress! Also I’ve been wanting to try a soften studio pattern, thank you for the recommendations :)
@@Rebecca_Good I hope you enjoy making them.
@@Rebecca_GoodA shirt dress is great for somebody who is not a dress sort of person .

Oh that’s a great one!
