    A beautiful coat! Love the blue dress with a v neck. Both so classy, so elegant. You are fortunate to have some wonderful fabric sources, and, of course, you select the best!❤

    • @Sloths.and.Orchids

      Thank you, Frances! I find it that it is easier to pair things up when they are made with plain fabrics.. hence my recent obsession with plains 😄😍

    Your sewing skills are amazing. Everything looks so impeccable and professional. Just beautiful. I’m sure you have told us before, but who taught you to sew? And how long have you been making your own wardrobe?

    • @Sloths.and.Orchids
      @Sloths.and.Orchids 10 месяцев назад

      Thank you, Jan! I've been sewing on and off for years and I'm mostly self-taught, looking things up on RUclips and sewing books. I love it when a pattern comes with the detailed instructions too. I'm also a repeater, when I make a garment I like, I make it again multiple times and I think it's helpful to perfect my sewing technique that way. Thank you for your kind words 💕💝

      @Sloths.and.Orchids 10 месяцев назад

      Oh great!! What do you think of the Alison dress? I'd love to make more but need to find a slightly heavier but soft and stretchy fabric. Do you remember the viscose mix we got at the London show? I should have gotten it in all the colours 😘🥰

  • @leelahmcguigan7468
    @leelahmcguigan7468 10 месяцев назад

    Love your coat. I agree about basting/tacking. Some say life is too short. No life is too short not to baste. It saves so much time ( with the seam ripper). And gets you better results. And as you say. Helps when you are doing something that you are not confident about.

    • @Sloths.and.Orchids
      @Sloths.and.Orchids 10 месяцев назад

      Thank you Rimma 😍 I shamelessly copied the colour of their sample dress .. But it's such a good combination.

That's what I love about sewing, you never get to the point where you know absolutely everything 💖🥰😍

    If your sewing machine suddenly doesn't do button holes to your satisfaction... Remove the plate under the presser foot and check that the feed dogs are clogged up with lint, & fabric gunk etc. I was amazed how much stuff was clogged up in there. There was so much stuff compacted in there no wonder my button holes were crappy. They're great now and I clean them out usually before I start a new project.

    • @Sloths.and.Orchids
      @Sloths.and.Orchids 10 месяцев назад

      It was more the case of the machine programming, all the automatic buttonholes would come out different sizes 🤷🤷 Anyway, it's all in the past now as I've got a magical Brother machine which makes buttonholes on any fabric like there's no tomorrow 💖🥰

    Love the color pallette. Leather skirt is a dream. I would wear the white dress to the theater/play, recognition ceremonies. There is no food involved there. Try with a chunky chelsea boot for a more casual look or caramel accessories for sophistication. The aubergine dress- Grommets or studs placed in an interesting fashion as part of design would give the dress a bit of an edge and still feel casual.

    • @Sloths.and.Orchids
      @Sloths.and.Orchids 10 месяцев назад

      Thank you Yelena! Love you styling ideas! Especially the caramel accessories, I've been thinking about getting a bag and shoes in that colour, it's like you're reading my mind 💖😘 The grommets sound fun as well, except that the hole was right in the middle of one breast so probably not the best place for one 🤦🤦 😜

    • @yelenalevchuk7802
      @yelenalevchuk7802 10 месяцев назад

      @Sloths.and.Orchids Bummer. You are right.Yikes, Grommets would not be a good idea😃. Not many alternatives there. I really like how you finished the sleeves and neckline. That "raw" finish is pretty neat. We have the same coloring. Naturally, the wardrobe colors are similar as well. I also think we live in similar weather conditions because your choice of staples are very relatable. I'm Seattle,WA. Rainy, gray and gloomy with an occasional sunshine.

    • @Sloths.and.Orchids
      @Sloths.and.Orchids 10 месяцев назад

      Well that's handy, we must exchange wardrobe tips 😚 I think I have a slight olive underdone actually, even with my white skin.. English weather is pretty much the same all year around which means I'm only even sewing for one long season 😁

    • @yelenalevchuk7802
      @yelenalevchuk7802 10 месяцев назад

      @Sloths.and.Orchids Its a pleasure to connect with you over sewing. A girl needs her sewing 🧵🪡village💃💃💃😄 Yes on the olive undertone, except I have brown eyes. And the olive is more prominent after getting a tan, so I do have to mind my colors for basics, that they can serve me throughout most seasons. You've done a great job though. Great balance of neutrals and colors. Something to aspire to for myself. I feel that I have been leaning towards neutrals heavily. Time to pull those colors from the stash!:)

    Glad to know I’m not the only one making tiny holes on my garments. I have done this twice.

    You can make a pie shaped wedge from the armsye down the sleeve under your arm if you have some scraps?? It will not be noticeable AT ALL and will be oh-so-comfortable.... ask me how I know. Lol. Also, I " serged" a hole in a dress and had to make it a size smaller at that seam. I was so sad at the time!! Now??? I can't remember which dress!! I am speaking of your beautiful Aubergine dress. I am taking fabric and pattern notes!! On ALL of them!!! Love your makes❤

      Thank you Vicki, I like the fabric scraps inserts idea. I think I will try the dress again when I'm slightly slimmer and see if the rest of the dress fits ok, and reassess it again then. Thank you for watching and for your lovely comments 💖❤️

    I hope you will consider boycotting Viki Sews. By purchasing these patterns you are sending hard currency to Russia. Those transactions are being taxed, so in addition you are providing funds for the brutal invasion of Ukraine and the atrocities being committed. All of our purchasing decisions matter. If you’ve ever wondered if there is anything you can do to support Ukraine, this is something you can do.

      Thank you for your comment. I have a long history with Vikisews, long before the war started. I don't know if you watched any of my other videos but I talked about it in detail. All foreign currency purchases are going to Vikisews LLC company house that was registered in America on the 15th of March 2022 - all the documents and information is available on the internet and you are welcome to look.
