- I've shown you my best , now it's time for the worst! This is a small selection of some of my epic sewing fails. I'm not all about the perfect sewing , I like to keep it real and I actually found it quite fun to film this one. There are some good future re-make projects in here.
Thank you, as always , especially for all your kind words and encouragement.

"A spotty sausage" OMG I am screaming with laughter here.
🤣🤣 literally the body shape of a sausage ❤️
The polka-dot outfit is adorable
😊❤️
We are our own worst critics. None were so disastrously bad that they could not be redeemed. For the easiest..the 2 piece pants n crop top..wear it with a tee but let the straps of the tee show as you did with the tee showing at your mid section. I honestly said, before you spoke, that it was cute. The solid black mid section really helped the overall look. The boho dress..add elastic across the front and over the shoulders to pull the dress in. The coatigan..ok I was gonna give up on that but thought I love the overall concept so elastic at the cuff n elastic on the back waist. This will make it not so wizardy 😂. Just wear your makes..feel fabulous in what you make even if you are an overdressed dropoff or pickup Mom.. Happy sewing 😊😊
These are some brilliant suggestions 🙌🏼❤️
@ChrissieConlayMakingStuff the wizardry robe would be good in the winter months just sew up the front and you have a wonderful warm house coat.
Commercial pattern sizing is a mysterious thing! I find that most of the time the finished garment measurements are written on the actual pattern pieces and they are a much better indicator of what size best fits. I've made some shockers in the past too, but I agree, just jump in and make a mess...nothing is wasted! We're always learning!! Enjoyed your trip down memory lane!
I totally agree! ☺️❤️
So glad I am not the only one 🤣
We have all been there 🙌🏼❤️
The brown dress looks lovely on you apart from the fit, I’m not very good at doing this, but the colour really suits you, perhaps unpick the top bit and get it to fit you better xx
Thank you ☺️ I do wish it fit and I wish I could be bothered to un pick it 🤣🤣❤️
Great, we have all been there. Thanks for sharing. So funny.
Thank you 🤩 ❤️
This is the first video I’ve seen of yours, you made me laugh ! We all have those disasters, thank you for sharing, Bridget
Thank you for watching ❤️
I agree that the more mistakes you make the more you learn.
Trust the process 🙌🏼❤️
I just found your channel and have to say, you have just made my weekend. This is the best review of "worst sewing projects" ever! Your honest review of these patterns is so great. Thanks for the honesty and laughs.
And you have also made mine with your lovely works so thank you ☺️ ❤️
Chrissie, I loved this video. I lost myself at the oatmeal jumper and pants with burgundy cuffs. I didn't know why you were criticising it... until you explained. And the back-and-white set was also ok at the first sight, but your critical approach was quite convincing. Yet, I think, maybe you can still wear it… (?) Anyways, I would like to thank you. I restarted sewing after 20 years, in the COVID 2020 year. Actually in the second half of the year. And I made a couple of equally baggy, unfitted, quite bizarre garments. But I haven't admitted to myself that they're actually not good. I preferred to pretend there's nothing wrong with them. But this video opened my eyes. So I really appreciate your work here!!! And thank you. Would I not wear these unfortunate garments anymore? I don´t know. At least I would be more aware about what's going on, and maybe I will not make mistakes?... Doubtfully🤣😂😅
Thank you so much for watching ☺️ ❤️
I have just found your channel and what a blast 😂I'm sorry I had so much fun at your expense thanks for sharing.
🤣🤣 I am here to entertain ❤️
The best of the worst makes out there🥰
Thank you for being wonderfully entertaining. I was rocking some of my own #wizardcore while watching this and laughed so much I shed a tear, or two.
🤣 wizardcore forever 🙌🏼❤️
😂 loved this vlog. Thanks for sharing with us! 😊
Glad you enjoyed it! ☺️❤️
Too much fun! Yeah, I've had some Big Fails, but as you say, it's how you learn...unfortunately!
And sometimes expensive mistakes ! 🤣❤️
Plus time and effort!!!@@ChrissieMakesClothes
Bright emerald green sounds great. Beige and brown are too dull for you. Next time, spend as much for fabric as you can afford in a color you love. Measure as carefully as possible and take your time. Make sure your fabric is one recommended for the pattern. I'm 78yrs old and I've been sewing since I was in junior high and made lots of stuff that was really awful. I gave up dressmaking and learned to quilt. It was my nitch. Best of luck, hope you have more success than I. Fitting was my failure ( I could never follow directions).
This is some amazing advice thank you ☺️ ❤️
Hey Chrissie, loved this vlog. You are so real! I really liked that puff sleeve dress, such a shame it didn't fit. Could you add some shirring into the back panels to cinch it in? 🥰🥰
Thank you so much ☺️ I really want to try and fix it up ❤️
LOL I can see why the crop top gets hate, I'd add a bottom half to the top and make it a whole one. 😄
Definitely needs a middle 🤣 ❤️
You made my day!!! I totally relate…
Got to keep it real ❤️
Another great vlog Chrissie, you are so funny and your honesty is refreshing 😂☺
Yay, thank you! ❤️
Loved this vlog so much! I have learnt so much from my 'fails' - thank you for sharing yours! 😊
You're so welcome! ❤️
haha...i love the spotty outfit on you! i think it looks great. i dont wear crop tops either but with the black underneath fits it great...just add a wide waistband to it...itll be like gertie's rita pattern...awesome peasant top...tfs:)
Oooooo that’s not a bad idea ❤️
Hahaha. This was great!
Thank you ❤️
There's an old video on YT by Nancy Zieman on how to customize the pattern for your measurements.
M8018 - put elastic across the bust and over your shoulders, or (as a former tailor) I would take apart the bodice at the princess seam and take in the center only (front and back, equally). Pin it on the outside and try it on. No hope for the rest of 'em! 😂
Seriously check out that video!
Oh awesome I’ll have a look ❤️
Lmao 😂 I'm still making failures! Loved this vlog ❤️
Long live failures!! They are more entertaining 🤣❤️
@@ChrissieMakesClothes they are for my sister 🤣
You’ve made me belly laugh again; I’ve made the hug hoodie and slow pants many times - fav patterns
Aren’t they soo good ??? I need more ❤️
Just found you and enjoyed your video! And subscribed. So entertaining.
Thank you for watching 🙌🏼❤️
I loved this video😁❤️❤️That rust colored dress could be salvaged if you add elastic shirring to the bust front and back. 🤔I could do a video several hours long if I shared all my sewing fails. 😂😂😂Just subscribed.
Ha ha there are plenty more 🤣 thank you for subbing ❤️
I found your channel today Chrissy and have really enjoyed your videos. You are so natural and very funny, looking forward to more 💜 #wizardcore 😂
Hooray for wizardcore 🤣🤣 thank you so much ☺️❤️
I laughed my way through this vlog Chrissy. Not at your makes, your just so entertaining 😃🤣🤣🫶🏻
I had the most fun doing this honestly 🤣🤣 maybe sewing fails are my thing 🤩❤️
Gday. I Think you are too hard on yourself, the cut of your garments look great on you, just alter the sizing, remake in different fabrics 🤩The White collar on your dress could be swapped out as the dress itself really does look lovely on you 🤩You do make me laugh, you are a breath of fresh happy air 😀Have a great weekend, thanku 'sew' much for sharing 🪡✂🧵🙂
Thank you for your lovely comment ☺️❤️
Recently found your channel. Loved the refreshingly honest take on your failures. I actually thought the coat was a dressing gown at first 🤣🤣
Could you dye the loungewear set to a darker colour?
Thanking you for watching ☺️ I might give dying it a try 👍🏼❤️
🤩🤩👍
🙌🏼❤️
I loved this blog , you made me laugh so much 😂😂. I do wonder though if you did this same vlog in a few years, would your view on any of these outfits change, given fashions change. Maybe not on the hug hoodie and slow trousers, I agree the colour is challenging. However hasn't the nude look just hit the catwalk?? Loving your channel
That’s very true , wizardcore could be the next trend 🤣❤️
this was so funny omg
Hooray ❤️
I love this made me laugh. I identify. I have a naughty corner for my fails. The Empire dress is gorgeous. If you take off the top and remake that in a smaller size maybe in a solid black I’m sure it would look stunning. Can you dye the tracksuit? But maybe you don’t want to because it sounds like the fabric is 🤮.
I try to use my unfortunate purchases for muslins . I’ve learned I won’t wear them. ❤🧵📍
I’ve definitely learnt what to buy and not buy these days. Thank you so much for watching ❤️
