Superb xx I too use duvets as practice pieces x This is fab to wear out xx
@alwaysaheart1645 Yes, it's a.great cheap way, to practice on, isn't it ? Sometimes it's wearable too, hehe
New subbie. Great tutorial, although im pea green with envy over your gorgeous fabrics. I watch the hoarders show, too, when stuff starts piling up in my craft space, which is my bedroom. Ha. These would be pretty in the bathroom, too. I live in America, and we put pretty tea towels on the oven handle. I had two pretty vintage tea towels on mine. Told my son not to touch them. I always do any leftover dishes in the sink before bed and wipe down the counters so i dont wake up to a messy kitchen. I got up on a Saturday morning and the kitchen was a hot mess. Dirty pots in the sink and ... OMG ... both of my tea towels were piled on top of the stove and had grease stains and tomato sauce. Turns out my kid got the munchies watching a movie, was cooking something and it boiled over. He also had made bacon and thats where the grease was. They were both ruined. That was 2 yrs ago and im still mad. Ha. Great tutorial, Patricia
@3rscrafting hello yes I have had beautiful teatowels in the past and my sons wiped the counter tops with them and marked them so I don't invest heavily in expensive.ones now but have some fancy ones still in drawers maybe one day I will use them again hehe
This is a tip when I.gather the waist I use a different colour bobbin this makes it easy to take out the thread lv from Canterbury uk
That's a great tip. Thank you, and have a nice day 😊
Beautiful dress. Looks really nice on you.
Why that's very kind of you to say
What a wonderful surprise from your lovely son, going to two of my favourite countries n Europe. You must be well loved to receive such an amazing gift. Love your down to earth videos, don’t stop doing them. X
How very kind of you Thank you, I will try to. I've got many patterns to make up and am just trying to find some pretty fabric for the liberty pattern I've shown. Have a lovely day, whatever you do.
Who is this beautiful wholesome person?!
As a Brummie Pebble Mill wasn't far from where i lived, you could walk past the front of the building and see them live on air at 1pm .... now I to live in the countryside & my interfacing arrives courtesy of ebay 😁
I remember watching it years ago, and they talked about a variety of things. I bet that was great living nearby. Did you see some of the famous actors or stars walking about? I must try ebay thank you for the tip
@@victoriamakes I saw loads of famous people, singers, actors etc, it was a very chatty show but always finished with a singer or a band, so sad when they demolished the building !.....Amazon also has interfacing if you need it asap & there's Etsy....& I love you chatting, I make a big pot of coffee grab some knitting/crochet/sewing and settle down to chat back to you (yes I know, I'm insane) 😁
I was on Pebble Mill once as a child in the 70s. In a group of children singing a folk song Probably wassailing.
@feltaria9177 That's a nice memory for you DID you watch it in later years ot had it finished
What have you been making lately?
@marvelfangirl7791 just this dress bit I've also made another windbreaker and bag for a friend to use at the beach if you haven't seen the video please check out my get beach ready video for more inspiration 😀
I’m so glad I found your channel. Your voice is so soothing and this is one of my favorite patterns. I think I’ve made six or seven.🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻
Bless you how kind yes it gets addictive doesn’t it I wish you could post your dress pictures here I bet they are lovely Look out for my next video I tweek one of the patterns I’ve done before so it’s slightly different
Victoria, what a lovely dress you made and so relaxing to watch you construct the pattern first from cheaper random fabric. Very enjoyable WELL DONE Thank you.
Thank you very much that’s very kind of you to comment. I’m just choosing what to make next
I love it. Just ordered the pattern x
It's lovely and good instructions hope it turns out lovely 😍
Wow that dress looks great on you, especially how you’ve placed the fabric pattern down the centre front!
Thank you! 😊 I Just love the fabric not too confident to wear it though 🙃
I am on a 2 year waiting list for 2 other consignment stores. And my birthday is in December
Hope it’s Worth it All good things Come to those who wait
I make doll clothes for the 18" , 111/2" and baby dolls. Children's clothes and a lot of other things. I was taught to crochet, knit, and embroidery also. I have taught myself to use some power tools to refinish small pieces of furniture. I am 74 until Dec. I was in 2 consignment stores but had to leave them because they had to close their doors. I used what I sold to supplement my social security. I am a retired beauty school instructor. I like to use old clothes as well as new fabrics.
@johnettehaines6291 wow so much talent I'd love to learn crochet I bet you've made so many lovely things and I think you need to go back early to raise consignment stores 😊 have a great time there and birthday in September. Happy Crafting
I was taught that from my Granny and my Mom
@@johnettehaines6291 lovely to keep the old ways Do you do anything else?
Yes I did
Sometimes I go to a store called SAS or I check out Good Well for fabric. But I have several tubs filled with fabric and used clothes. I like to take old used things to make something out of it. Plus I only buy patterns when JoAnn Fabric has them for sale at $1.99. I took a pair of shorts that wore out in the sit and made a shorts outfit for one of my eldest Great Grand daughters. My granddaughter now has 3 little girls so the shorts outfit will be going to each girl in time. Phoenix, AZ, USA
@johnettehaines6291 How wonderful that is to pass on clothes and repurpose them? I'm all for that and bargain patterns. Great tip for all
I am from Phoenix, AZ USA. I just took a rectangular holiday tablecloth I had for years when I had a rectangle table. Since I now have an oval table, I couldn't use it. So I cut it up to make 8 placemats and a long table runner. It is a dark blue covered with white stars. I used a cotton red and white strip fabric to make the bais trim to go around placemats and table runner, plus 8 napkins.
That sounds lovely. Did you use it on 4th July ?
hello very nice lady please kindly film how to thread the sewing machine how to wind the bobbin and please kindly film how to operate the sewing machine electric foot pedal how its used to sew please kindly let me know ok?thank you very much 😊
Hello, I will try in a future video. So please subscribe and hit the notification button to keep updated of new videos uploaded. Thank you for your suggestions and have a great day
I love this top/ dress because it could be either depending on the hem length. It ĺl looks so nice on you. I took home economics in high school. My teacher taught us to read through the pattern and imagine doing the sewing in your head. It's hard at first but gets easier each time. So I sew everything I make two times, first in my head then on my machine. How long have you been sewing because you are doing great.
Hi it is a lovely pattern and yes could me made into a shorter flowing top that would be lovely a great idea I've started sewing several months ago, although I did a bit at school and just after a couple of book tubes and Sarah skirts when I was 18 then gave up. That was a long, long time ago, haha. I'm now on my 5th dress, but I'm looking at other more slimmer fit ideas for skirts and dresses. 😊 Thanks for your comment. What about you, have you any craft projects on the go?
First video I looked at for removing the partly worn original pvc covering on the cabinet doors,mine are unpainted,and I have a heat gun so if it comes off as easily as yours which I think it will then that will be great,then they will prepped maybe to spray in a plasticote colour or see prices by pro restorers (under £20 per door I think,don’t know if they strip them for that price as well though) or so cheap if done diy. but 100s for a total kitchen reworked is better than into multi 1000s 👍 Good informative video you done there 😃
Thanks its so easy I couldn't believe it and so economical they still look fab today I would do it yourself then go on holiday with the money you've saved hehe Thanks for your comment have a great day and a fab DIY project.
The dress is amazing and look soooo good on you! It’s quite dreamy!
@janvas7690 Bless you, I'm not sure, but it turned out well. I love the pattern I would recommend it
You’re lovely and so enthusiastic about your creations!
@janvas7690 Bless you. My hubby says they don't suit me, so I'm not wearing them. I love the style, though, not sure. I do love sewing, that's for sure. Have a great day 😀
A pillow case make a bodice top for dress I have brought pillows case for lining cheaper then buying lining and it cotten
@alanmarsh5834 Thank you I've seen some lovely pillow cases lately I will be picking those up now too
I enjoyed your tutorial, every now and then, throughout my life, I attempted sewing. Had an old machine given to me, couldn’t get it to work, everything would get knotted up. But I was determined so…… I thought it must be this old machine, I’ll treat myself to a new one and I’ll be able to make all my clothes…… couldn’t complete a single line of stitch, things coming unthreaded, things knotting up, machine seizing up. I would put it away for years at a time and then pull it out and try again…. I finally just passed it on and I know it’s getting good use. As for me, I’m all thumbs, green thumbs that is, I’ll stick to gardening. Have a lovely day, anyone reading this.
I bet you have really green fingers though, , everyone has a special talent how lovely it must be to make a garden grow enjoy yourself and treat yourself to some new seeds when the seed catalogues come out I love to watch gardeners world (UK programme) that is so inspiring but alas I don't have a large garden. Sometimes, it's just the machine - Always blame the tools haha 😄 Thank you for your comment. Have a lovely week 😊
@@victoriamakes thank you for your response, and may each day bring you lovely adventures.
@@greenthumb8266 The same to you 😄
This video is the first I've seen on your channel, I just wanted to say how happy it made me feel - thank you. Im much older than you, but it took me back to being a girl at home x ps The dress looks great on you
@J-zr9lg Ah bless you I'm so happy you enjoyed it and it brings you happy memories Happy sewing days and Thanks 😊
Victoria! Your video was recommended in the feed and so, Like and Subscribe, it is. You are absolutely delightful, and a lovely educator. Thank you for sharing your talents.
@4GiveN4get wow thank you so much much appreciated
Hello! South Australian here. Love the video. Not sewing at the moment as I need to fix my brakes. Have an awesome day.
Hope all goes well with the 🚗 and you can return to sewing soon
I've just ordered this pattern , so I'm well impressed how pretty it turned out, it looks fabulous on you ,its meant to be loose fitting, like an artist smock I believe. I hope once I find some material that I like it'll turn out just as nice, tfs hugsx
@Mumakinder Ah bless you. I hope yours turns out lovely. Enjoy sewing it. I certainly will be making it again. Let me know what material and pattern you go for. Thanks for your comment too
At about 28:50, when you were asking about ‘clipping the corner,’ whenever I’ve had to do that it’s usually at a point where I have to sew around a corner turn, or where several panels come together, so I just put a small cut in the fabric so that the fabric will lay more flat over itself rather than if it had to fold onto itself (which makes that particular area bulky). Is that what you were referring to? How did that area turn out for you? I couldn’t see any major bulky spots when you tried it on… And by the way, it turned out adorable! Tunics are some of my favorite tops to wear, so I love this project! I may just have to go hunt down the pattern for myself. And my favorite spots to get fabric to reuse is local thrift stores (I think you call them ‘charity shops’ over there). Thanks for a great video 😊
@yoginimichelleh yes , that's exactly it! Thank you. I just didn't dare clip it too much but snipped it a bit, and it seemed to work. Hiw lucky u am to have your comments for confidence in the next time I have to do this thank you and oh yes thrift shops are brilliant I think it's also the excitement of the unknown what we may find on a thrifting adventure What's your favourite find so far ? Yes, find that pattern 🤞 it's a lovely one. 😊 Happy sewing, crafting friend
@@victoriamakes my favorite finds are retro fabrics from the ‘40’s and ‘50’s, anything silky and/or patterned (recently I have a lust for flowers!). Lately I have been making aprons of all sorts with my thrifted fabrics, and have been thinking of maybe having a go at selling them online… we’ll see if I’m able to part with any of them LOL! Thank you for another inspiring vid!💛
@@yoginimichelleh I’ve done that made lot of aprons but a friend told me no one wants to buy them at craft fairs here so I gifted them to friends😀 who were very happy. I have saved a collection to wear in the kitchen for myself, so even if it rains everyday I would Always have a clean apron! 😃 Your fabrics sounds amazing. I bet everything will be super. Have a go selling them let me know how you get on and the best of luck with it all . very exciting
@@victoriamakes will do!
Hi Victoria. Your dress looks beautiful. I think that I'm going to have a go at that pattern. On the pattern piece for the bodice, is there a dot in the angle, where the front dropped section meets the upper bodice part? You would usually clip from the angle, to that dot. So that the front seam and gathered waist seam fit comfortably together. I hope that I've explained it ok. I'm loving your videos x
@annielord4151 hiya, yes there was, and thank you for confirming this. I'm lucky to have kind viewers helping me bless you all, and thank you for your lovely comments. 😍
Oh, you will be startled. I am beginning an ALL new wardrobe. Also, I just got a message from an old school friend asking about an apron.
@Avotts sounds fun, and that will be amazing sewing everything from scratch. A whole new wardrobe that is planned from the beginning sounds great. The pattern I made _ video is the blue checked apron dress by dottie angel (a few months ago), would make a great apron style, too
Beautiful, thank you! ❤ I plan to make the Ellis dress soon wish me luck😊
Yes I’m already making another o think it’s my favourite pattern now Have you chosen your fabric for it what is it ? Hope it turns out lovely sure it will. Happy sewing
Hi just found u, love what u do but the music was overtaking ur speech, no need for music. I'm off to look what I can paint now!!!!
@susanwoods174 Hi, Thanks for your feedback. I won't be adding music in the future. I hope you enjoy the future videos. Happy painting, what will you be doing, and what finish are you going for?
i love your blouse, it is lovely. I would think the pleat is to make the pocket usable. dress is very pretty. i would add some lace to the neckline.
Great idea! Thank you I do love lace Have a great day. Have you any craft projects on the go at present ?
Love that you sew in the kitchen and don’t have all the expensive equipment- overlocker. Your dress is lovely and I really like the coordinating fabrics
Bless you, no posh mod cons here. Hehe, just a love for sewing and chatting and making new youtube friends and having fun trying to sew new patterns and sharing tips 😊 along the way
@@victoriamakes I’ve just made a Nell dress out of a charity shop sheet. It’s huge!! Hey ho good experience for nicer fabric
@SueSmith-hq3dx ooh who makes the nell is it T& the button pattern Was it a good pattern? Is there anything you'd do differently
@@victoriamakes yes T and the B. Lovely easy pattern. Went down 1 size. Would go down another. And take more out of the back. Lots of buttonholes which I don’t need to use it’s so big!!!
@@SueSmith-hq3dx I know what you mean my latest video due out next week is very large I thought I could cut it down the front middle and make it into a floating kimono perhaps?
Really sweet result! Beautiful. I can’t see another fabric choice being cuter than that combo.
Yes I'm learning on these cheap fabrics and happy they have turned out well Thank you for your lovely comment 😊
Tencelis lovely. Feels like a combination of cotton and rayon.
I must try this thank you 😊
👏🏻👗
You did a fabulous job I’m very impressed
Thank you. You never really know do you how it will all turn out. I just hope it all comes together Are ypu sewing anything or doing any crafts at present?
@@victoriamakes Yes actually I am working on several different quilts. And I recently bought a dress much like the one you just made for a pattern to make myself a dress using a different fabric
@@treyshields7848 Wow how lovely to make quilts i bet that’s so relaxing and rewarding
Loved your video, I’m tempted now to get out my sewing machine to have a go, I’ve not used it for about 40 years. All my old sewing patterns are from the 70s, will need some resizing lol. I used to make all my clothes and I loved it, I’ll need to have a look. I love your chatty style and showing each step of your progress, brought it all back to me. Looking forward to seeing your other projects. Thank you 😀
How fabulous I bet you have some amazing patterns have fun looking through them and deciding which to sew. That's really exciting let me know what you make 😀
Fantastic job well done suits you.
Thank you kindly It turned out well. you never really know beforehand. Are you sewing anything nice at present?
Your videos are a treasure. Subscribed, and a thank you from California.
@@carolynsuedickens wow Thank you very much I thought they must be rubbish and maybe give it up but I’ve been so fortunate for people to find me lately which has given me some confidence to do some more Thank you I’m so happy people are saying they are liking what I do having fun and learning along the way let me know what you make and any tips you have have a great day
Consider adding ties to the sides that tie in the back. That would fix the baggy problem and make for a cute addition to the pattern.
@Palebunny nice.suggestion, 😊 Thank you
I like the longer videos xxx
Great feedback 👍
New subscriber here. I really enjoyed your video and I am inspired to hunt out some pretty duvet covers to try new patterns with. I am also tall, so lengthening patterns has become a way of life. I usually use the lengthening line on the pattern otherwise it can throw the proportions out.
True that's what I've done with other patterns before it is the best way thanks I must remember Im getting a bit dippy lately 😀 Any pattern recommendations you've made please?
Looks beautiful Thank you so much 💙🩵
Thank you too! 😊
Love the dress. I have been thrifting fabric from opportunity shops (charity shops inAustralia) for many years. I also deconstruct clothing to remake into something else. You are very easy to listen to ❤️🇦🇺🦘
Wonderful! I'd love to go round your Op shops. What have you made lately, and have you tried any other types of fabric items? I'm thinking of doing something with quilts if I can find one
I've made this dress as my first garment in forever. I really love it.
Wonderful! Happy sewing journey what will you be making next?
