Ps hilarious about the dog bowl … lucky me 🤣
Actually it’s lucky ME since the purchase came out of the household budget instead of my sewing budget. My husband claims that was “accidentally on purpose “ 😂😂😂thank you so much for stopping by and offering help and responses to questions REALLY kind of you 🤗
@@thebigsewalong Pleasure is all mine!! :)
Gini, LUV the pink stripe caftan/tunic. You're right---perfect pattern for the fabric. Silky , slim , cropped pants will be excellent in lieu of leggings. So cute!!!
Thank you Beth I really love this pattern and can’t wait to make my next one!
Hi Gini, It’s Trish from Me and Miss Moore …your followers contacted me about your channel and that you are trying the Feel Good Dress. I’m so delighted 🤩 thank you and hope you enjoy the pattern… I’m here if needed …. Trish xx (& enjoying your insights)
Linda Lee over at the Sewing Workshop wears hers so often that I think of the phrase as all one word: blackpicassopants.
😂😂😂
To match, or not to match….whether you want to or not!🤣 Thanks for the chuckle 😂
😂😂😂
Oh you enabler! I just bought 3 new patterns from Me and Miss Moore! I do hope you like making yours. Cant wait!
Hi It’s Trish from Me and Miss Moore… I am so delighted your sewing my patterns 🤩 and a big thanks to Gini and you all for trying them out …. Hope you love them :) Im hear if you need any help Xx
I do what I can 😂😂😂which other ones did you get?
@@thebigsewalong I bought the Adeline A-Line dress and the A-Line Pleat Button Top/Dress as well as the Feel Good Dress. It was wonderful to see a new source for my obsession!
Every week I’m jealous of how prolific your sewing is 😭 Wonderful work as always. Happy sewing Ginni!
Thank you Rosie! 🤗
Like Rosie_ie, I too am jealous - such great makes! I also never want you to move that calendar to any other month but May. Hahaha! I have yet to make a size 16 top front with size 12 back, but now that I have said that I have probably jinxed myself... I accidentally made a fun summer top by chopping off the sleeves on a toile of the McCalls M8 8144 sweater. I had made it miles too large (I really don't know my measurements) and when I lopped off the sleeves the shoulders draped great. And it has a lovely cowl neck. As always, lovely to see your videos. Thank you!
Thank you Georgie! How short did you cut those sleeves? Bicep? 💪 elbow? It’s a cute pattern. My sister in law gave me that calendar and I love it. I often forget to change the month so chances are you’ll be seeing May for a while oops I just realized it’s already June 🤣🤣🤣ok time to change the calendar
@@thebigsewalong hahaha! They were dropped sleeves, so they just 'drop' to bicep-ish length. Cut out another version in a grey/dark lilac knit with a small diamond pattern in the weave from my local store Bolt (Portland, OR) . Divine store! Can't wait for your next video and update on the new Etsy dog-bowl (pics please!). Cheers!
❤ Thank you!
Thank you once again Gini for your fun and motivating video. Love the pink and black tunic and I really love those sandals! Do you by chance have a link to those?😊
Thanks Christine! I wish I did have a link for the sandals but they are about ten years old. An old customer gifted them to me and I absolutely love them
Hi, Gini! When I have things that don’t turn out as pictured in my head, they are re-cut or in your case, those pants would become PJ’s. I love how we RUclips sharers always share our: Don’t do this! I have a friend here that teaches sewing classes and she tells us something to not do and follows it with, “Ask me how I know!” Then we all laugh🤣
Kaftan pattern is cute! I want to see the large floral😊
😂”ask me how I know” should be my mantra 😂😂😂
@@thebigsewalong I love hearing her say that; we can all relate😊
OMG that pink and black caftan is stunning 😍. Always love your vlogs. 😊 Lynne
Thank you Lynn I feel like I need to go to a pool party in that one
Love the caftans! I may need that pattern for summer. Have you seen the new top from Tessuti? I think its named Cora and I have no idea why Im so attracted to it. I probably have a pattern exactly like it already but I keep looking at it again and again, aarrgghhhhh!
😂😂😂well isn’t that just the way? I hadn’t seen that top until now but it’s pretty cute and I might need that too.
Nice makes. I love the accidental dress pattern purchase. Definitely my style and excited to see it. I hope you have a super week. I’m in lower MI on vacation. ❤
Ooooo are you by the lake ? Lake MI I mean? I love it there. Have a great vaca!
Southern MI and N IN on the lake. Grew up close to lake MI and have been there dozens of times. Grew up on a lake. Moved to AZ 35 years ago. Some family still in Midwest. ❤
Hi Gini! Good to see you as a great start in my Sewingsunday! ❤ Thank you for your video! I like the new pattern ❤❤❤
She has a couple of other patterns I like the look of too. I’ll make this one first and let you all know how it goes. 🤗
I love the two different sizes for Strata -- and that they both look good. I'm curious to know what your pink top is. I like a square neckline. Thanks for adding your bright touch to my Sunday morning!
Came here to ask the same thing. Love the look of the pink top!
Lol, I was wondering the same but I found it in last year's video from April 30 2023. It's Chris Wood Sews Casita dress. So cute!
Yes! @DebCanDo is exactly right it’s the cris wood sews “casita” dress/top
criswoodsews.com/products/casita-dress-instructions-pdf-download
One of my faves from last year
A slimmer version of loose pants... So another pair of Pleats to Meet You Pants in black? 😁
😂ummmmm why didn’t I think of that?
Hi, the Feel good Dress seems nice, however can't find the info on whether it needs a zip?
It does not need a zip! Somewhere in the description it says “pull over” or “pull on” anyway I’ve already printed mine out and read the instructions and there is no zipper
@@thebigsewalong Hi it’s Trish from Me and Miss Moore…. Yes no zip needed… I’m so delighted your going to sew this… happy to take questions field any issues questions … and wish you all happy sewing 😀😀😀🥰 xx
@@TrishaMoore-qy4cy I had wondered the same thing but when I checked the instructions there's a small opening and button at the back neck, right? I'm wondering if it's loose enough to omit that. Buttons there always get caught in my hair!
@@ctaylorluce ah yes... you must be looking at the Adeline Dress.. there is a button at the top. The v-neck is high and would squeeze over your head... I can with mine but its tight. I have considered removing it and making the neck wider - it would be a simpler sew but I like the high neck. Anyway I suggest taking a little of the whole way around the neck maybe 5-7mm or 1/4' (body and facing) and this might work. PS I get the hair and button thing it happens with me too!
