    Love your shorts. They look great on you. Lime green is one of my colors Iove wearing. The dresses are all really nice but the orange maxi is my favorite. It looks amazing and you could dress that up for any events with some accessories. It is the kind of dress that can go from casual to date night.

    Love your dresses! You look awesome in the maxi length. I’m only 2” taller than you but not in my legs. Many people say not to wear maxi length when your not as tall as a model but I get so many complements when I wear a maxi length. It’s so slimming. You look amazing in all of them, but my favorite is the maxi length. The Tungsten also looks amazing on you. It’s so flattering!! The color is absolutely perfect on you. You did a great job on all of them, as usual. Blessings, Liz

    Your three stretch dresses would easily transfer into your fall capsule with other fall colour accessories. I love the button up, all the perfect colours! I was just typing that the button up would look cool as a topper over what you are wearing in this video when you said it on the video! lol Your navy dress is going to be your new go-to dress for all occassions I can see it now! The fit and style is perfect for your body!

    All of the dresses look great on you but the Tustin-it gives you soooo much waistline definition! Very flattering! One more thing-so how would a person know if the pattern’s waistline matches mine? Would I measure from my shoulder to my natural waistline then measure the pattern to see if it matches?

    • @TomKatStitchery
      @TomKatStitchery  ปีที่แล้ว

      Are you wondering if you need to raise or lower the waist line? I find the biggest fitting issues come when the waist line is hitting too low. That can cause the smaller parts of the pattern to hit where your body starts to get wider - causing clinging. I don't recommend measuring from shoulder to waist as that measurement has quite a few outliers that an effect the fit. If you can pinch out a horizontal amount at the waist and it brings the pattern up to a more flattering position, then I would try shortening the pattern at the waist!

    Love your Max! Really beautiful. I also love those green shorts you have on. Those are the paper bag ones you were talking about it I think. I definitely think I might try those. Do you have any videos out there regarding that ball buster adjustment on one that doesn’t have a dart that’s in a dress like that I know take it and get into the waste but there’s not a waste with that is there? I have no idea how to do that, I don’t think.

    • @TomKatStitchery
      @TomKatStitchery  ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes! The green shorts are the paper bag ones I was trying out. I'm very pleased with the pattern! I'm not sure what you're asking about the ball buster adjustment. Can you clarify?

    @creepyed ปีที่แล้ว

    I just love the Tidals!! Ok, I have some thoughts about the cut aways, after watching a couple videos. I like the full screen B roll because you take up the full amount of vertical screen, so it's bigger and easier to see. However, if you wanted to do a split screen that keeps using the full vertical height, that's fine too. I know it can feel awkward to stand all the way to one side when filming just to make sure you have blank space for a split screen, but if you're able to use key frames and transitions you can still use A roll and shift it to the side. I'm not sure of your editing flow and I basically know enough to be annoying, so take it with a grain of salt 😂

    I am really trying to love the Tidal dress. I made one last summer, am fairly happy with the fit in the front, but don't love the back. I know the seam is there to make adjustments, but I would love to see what those adjustments are. I have slimmer hips and a flat bottom and I don't think it hangs right on me.

      @@rebeccarobinson2840 ok! That’s easy with a center back seam. You will just slash the pattern from center back to the side/princess seam and create a “hinge” at the side seam. Take the necessary length out at center back. This will create a more curved center back seam, but you’ll just need to smooth it out. It will fit much better!
