    Thirty is a great age, I had alot of fun in my 30's. I once jumped on stage with Anthrax and did Jaeger shots! Of course you're to young to remember Anthrax but, that's what mommies and daddies used to listen to.

      I don't think I'll ever do a Jaeger shot 😂 but sounds like you had fun!

    Beautiful dress! One of the things I love most about watching you sew is when you are faced with a technique that is different from what is common today you tend to embrace it. I find this refreshing because I hear so many sewists bashing instructions on Big 4 patterns. They tend to forget thousands of women have followed those instructions successfully for years.

    • @LizVonVillas
      @LizVonVillas  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you! 💘 I have run into a few instructions that I thought were kinda silly or just outright wrong, but for the most part I find them to be pretty doable. I especially like learning vintage sewing techniques 💕 Thanks for watching!

    I’m so glad you made this video. I bought the same pattern a few weeks earlier and was STRUGGLING. I gave up looking for tutorials bc no one had made any videos. I got a lot done by myself but the front tripped me up.
    AND WE HAVE THE SAME MACHINE! Wow 😭❤️🙏🏾

    • @LizVonVillas
      @LizVonVillas  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      The front was definitely a bit tricky! Glad I was able to help 😁❤️ and yay, go Brothers!! 😂

    Like you, I have heaps of patterns I purchased when they were on sale ($1 each) which I intend to sew, one day, some day, maybe 😊. Having all these patterns in my stash really paid off over the last six months, because of Covid.

    Beautiful pattern and fabric.I think this would also look great in a plain fine wool with long sleeves.

    I kind of clenched when you didn't make a muslin - then I remembered, back in I was a standard size 8 worried about the fit.

    Team trace...Hurray! There's another big TH-camr who has actual vintage patterns, like from the 30's and 40's, who's team cut. Makes her alterations right on the original tissue pieces. Makes my heart very sad.
