    The chocolate colour of your shirt and the orange in the dress give your face a nice glow. Keep using colourful fabric.

    Love the dress Sally! Good job with the invisible zipper 🥳 it’s always such a nervous moment isn’t it? 🤭 Thanks for your lovely words about Better Fit Academy! Of course I always recommend making some kind of toile but I’m not judging you for cutting straight into your fabric in this video, sometimes we just gotta do what we gotta do! 🤣 I think the dress turned out so good 🥰 /Josefine

    Love the dress Sally. Great fabric choice for that pattern. Interesting how there was so much ease at the waist too.
    Thanks for another great vlog.

      I know - very strange! I’ve since thought that the bust is probably so roomy because it’s not sized on cup - only chest size 🤔 xx

    Another great video, I really enjoy watching you stitch. I rarely do zips these days because I like a looser fit but in my early sewing days (the 70s) styles were much more fitted and pretty near every thing needed a zip. Something I found helpful was to put the zip in before I joined front and back together, patterns rarely tell you to this but it is so much easier to deal with a zip with flat fabric either side. It does mean you have to be sure of the fit or that you can do any alterations on the side seams but it usually worked for me. Hope this tip helps. Thanks again for your time making this video ❤

      Thank you for that tip. Would you do it with a normal zipper? I usually do that with invisible but haven’t tried with a regular zip 😊

    Love your finished dress, I tried making this dress in the summer but struggled to get the fit right around the bust. It’s been put in the naughty corner for now but after seeing yours I think I’ll get it out again

    • @SecretLifeOfASeamstress
      @SecretLifeOfASeamstress  День назад +1

      It’s a difficult one! I still have a lot of room around the bust and I think that’s because it’s sized on body measurements but not cup size. I don’t mind the looser fit but honestly if I wanted to re-size it I don’t know how I would do it in the bust cups 🤔 x
