This video is a collection of still images set to music for a different way to share this version of the McCall's 6044 sewing pattern I made in 2022. I used a cotton/linen blend fabric. Back in 2020 I altered this sewing pattern for color blocking purposes. I created new seam lines down the center back, and additional seams on both side fronts and side back bodice pieces.

This video is a talk through of still images taken back in 2020 of my process of making this Boxy Top version. This make was early in my sewing and Instagram days when I realized the fun in combining a simple sewing pattern and scrap/off-cut fabrics. I purchased the yellow linen when it was on sale (no longer available) however the Blue Moon fabric was gifted as an off-cut in return for photos ...

I like your idea of metallic threads. Well done!
Ooh so luxurious, very inventive and splendid.
I just finish a pair of these today. I did not add elastic to the pants, however I put in a drawstring. You pants look like you bought them from the store. Do you ever do videos while you are sewing. I would like to see how you did the waist of these pants.
Nice!
Thank You!
WOW!!!
I'm speechless! Gorgeous ❤
Thank You
So lovely!
Thank You!
Hey, I don’t know why RUclips suggested you to me, but I am subscribed now! I’ve been interested in the ecological facets of mending my clothing, so I’m definitely here to learn. I don’t have a functional sewing machine, so I’ll be paying attention for any handstitch lessons you offer as well. It’s good to see a fellow RUclipsr starting out strong!
Fantastic!
Thank You!
That shirt is a work of art! Your husband must love it!
Thank You so much! He does!
Best dressed husband ever!
Thank You!
Editing Ro did a great job with the sound effects and captions 😂 I also LUV linen. Such a wonderful fabric. I trail off awkwardly a lot in my videos and literally never know how to end them in a not awkward way lol
Thank You!
I always love your work! The idea of using sampler squares was genius ; it takes away the pressure of the decorative stitches being perfectly placed. I don't know anyone who maximizes the use of decorative stitches like you do. I really love this top.
Thank You so Very Much!
Beautiful
Thank You!
You should call the chipmunk Dyson he just sucks in that food😂 hope you have a better week. Love the shirt❤
They do tend to inhale the sunflower seeds. Thank You!
What a wonderful dress! So many great ideas! ❤❤❤
Thank You!
What brand of metallic thread do you use? Also do you have to use a metallica needle or make any adjustments on your machine? I've had varying results with metallic thread. If often takes me forever to get my machine set up properly. I love your use of fraying, but it must take forever.
Gutermann metallic thread TEX 33 it is recommended to be used with a no. 18 needle. I don't make any machine adjustments, other than not speed sewing with metallic thread. I've personally found sewing too quickly results in unpleasantness when using metallic thread. Fraying is definately time consuming, and surprisingly messy, but I like the results.
@@rocansew My issues may stem from using a needle that is too small. I always try to use the smallest size possible so going up a size or two is a good idea. I always regret when I speed sew, so that's not an issue for me anymore. I have much better results when I take my time. Thank you for sharing what works for you.
I hope the larger needle size helps. Thanks for watching and commenting. @@nadinewoods6971
What a precise front point! Your work is beautiful as always. Thank you for sharing your lovely dress and the steps your took to create it.
Thank you so much!
Sewn with love❤ it shows! Beautiful dresses!
Thank You!
Really glad to have "bumped into" your new RUclips channel. Instagram is great for some things, but nothing like a video for this. Looking forward to learning more of your details. This colour blocking is great!👏😃
Thank You So Much!
I really enjoy seeing all the creative touches you add to your garments. It's clear you put a lot of thought into each one.
Thank you so much!
Your dresses are adorable and so well made. I really enjoyed watching you Ro, you are lovely. Please don't be nervous...you are among friends. I look forward to more videos from you. Well done.
Thank You very much!
👍👍
What a wonderful first vlog! You have such a unique sewing style and I am so happy you are sharing it with us xx
Thank you so much!
Excellent! Thanks for information about finishing that will help these dresses last.
Thank You! Glad you found it helpful!
great idea and execution. gold star for creativity, the copper, the fraying, fantastic.
Thank you very much!
The dresses are lovely. I am sure the recipients will look adorable and will love them!
Thank You Much!
I enjoyed seeing your design process. I love yellow! I like how you topstitch down your seam allowances. About a year ago I purchased a used sewing machine that came with a flat felling foot, so it seemed like a good idea to start using it (which would also sew down the seam allowance, just on one side though). It looked so easy watching others using it online, but I was never able to get it to work so easily. I just ended up trimming and pressing first. Maybe I should try your method of sewing both sides down. It makes life so much easier for garments that have to be ironed. I have also never had great results with the continuous bias tape method. It seems so much easier to just cut and piece.
Thank You so much! I have heavy duty Singer machine but not many specialty feet. Flat felled, or a simple folded over and top stitched down are my favorite seam finishes. I will pick a seam finish dependent on the seam & fabric as I find certain finishes better in certain circumstances. I will French seam when I feel it's necessary.
The most important thing is that all of the dresses you made have pockets. My mom loved pockets not only to hold things such as keys and wallet but to put her hands in. Had a school teacher in middle school or high that always had her hands in her pockets and she wouldn't wear any clothes that didn't have nice deep pockets.
Thanks! The dress pattern I used, created by Alisa, has very nice deep side pockets.
Hi Ro, congrats on your first youtube vlog. Nicely done :) Editing Ro seems to have found lots of cool features like adding text, photos, clips and sounds. Such a lot of work :) You clearly do some very interesting, somewhat organic sewing and I am intrigued.
Thank You! Trying to learn all the editing features...it's all new to me.
Those little ruffles at the shoulders are so adorable! You’ve done a brilliant job serging and topstitching everything for reinforcement. I don’t sew girls’ clothing either, but the reinforcement sounds like a very good idea 😊
Thank You so much! I followed Mari's tutorial for the gathered cap sleeves. Truth be told, im not a fan of flappy seam allowances and often top stitch my seams flat as well.
Thank you for a great overview! A happy accident that the sizing worked so well 😉 I absolutely adore that copper metallic topstitching 😍
Thank You for watching! Yes, fortunate those patterns have so much ease. I too like the slight sparkle from those metallic threads.
Oh, yes please! I love an overview and learning more details about a specific make. Thank you!
Thank You! I'm currently going through pics from past makes to share on this platform.
Ugh. What a week. It was still nice to see you and I love your raglan top fabric & pattern!
Thank You!
Well done on your first vlog 👏 I was so happily surprised to see your channel! It’s so great to see you and I know I’ll love learning more about how do your amazing seam treatments and designs.
Thank You So Much!
Beautiful
Thank You Much!
Very cute combinations.
Thank You!
Great job!! They will be very loved by the girls that get them.
Thank You!
ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL DRESSES
Thank You So Very Much!
Beautiful dresses
Thank You Much!
These dresses are fabulous
Thank You much!
Love Love love ❤️
Thank you!
These are so cute!!! I wouldn't have thought to serge and topstitch the seams, but that was a great idea as it will enable families to use these dresses for years to come, handing them down to younger siblings. Your color combinations will brighten these little girls lives.. I've seen many sewing vloggers who started out nervous about filming, but over time they've become so relaxed it's like they're chatting with old friends. We appreciate your lovely sewing, so you don't need to worry about your presentation being perfect. I really don't know a lot of people in real life who sew, so seeing people online who share my love of sewing is a real treat for me; I'm pretty sure I'm not the only person who feels this way. Thank you for sharing!!!
Thank You Much. The dresses aren't perfect but I did sew with intent. I am shy and introverted and find recording challenging and this project had an extra layer of emotional impact. Thank You for watching.
Very cute dresses, love the colors.
Thank You Much. I was fortunate to have coordinating fabrics within my collection.
Oh my gosh! I absolutely love your dresses. The fabric is so cute and hello cap sleeves!!! ❤
Thank You So Very Much. Thank You for the informative videos and Your work for Project Dress a Girl.
Great overview, thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
I’m so glad you started this channel! I love watching you work your magic.
Thank you so much!
I've never been a big fan of elastic waists either, but I'm starting to make a few more pants with flat fronts and elastic backs. These are cute. I appreciated the close up views and seeing the construction on the inside. I also like sewing multiples because it gives you a chance to perfect the fit. Great work.
Thank You So Much!
I love love love this dress , The techniques I live a challenge look dress 👏🏽 Thanks for sharing.
Thanks So Much!
This dress is so beautiful! I want to try this!
Thank You!
