Love, love, love that you’ve made a curtain dress. I’ve collected so many pairs of beautiful curtains over the years with the sole intention of making clothes from them. I remember being very young and seeing The Sound of Music for the first time on Telly one Christmas. When Maria makes new clothes for the children from the curtains I think my eyes almost popped out of my head! I think it’s my earliest memory of being totally inspired by something. I would even go as far as to say, now that I think about it, that that one scene could be responsible for my love of trawling Charity Shops and finding alternative uses for the treasures that I find - making use of the resources that we have around us. Seeing this video and your dress has given me such a thrill this afternoon that I feel I could cry and I just want to give you a massive (virtual) hug. ❤
😊👍 I actually have a pinafore dress that I call The Sound of Music dress as it was the first one I made from a pair of corduroy curtains! Then I have the Joey dress. That was made from the duvet cover that used to cover my Mam's parrot's cage 🤣
@@marionsworld24 Yes!! Using your imagination and your own hands brings these objects to life in a way that no new shop bought item ever can. They all need names to go with their stories. 😁
Just love the curtain dress. We could call you Scarlet O'Hara. Hahaha. Your tree is fabulous and may just inspire me out of my doldrums to finish off mine. Lolol. Thankyou Marion its always so relaxing to watch you with your organic way of stitching.🥰🥰
My husband was sorting through his mother's cedar chest just a week ago and found dish towels with needle turned applique feathers on embroidered chickens and roosters. So, your needle turn applique leaves are very timely 😂... he thinks I should try my hand at it. Your tree is gorgeous!!❤ Have a wonderful vacation. Love your dress, especially the gathers on the bodice rather than darts. You are an inspiration to us all ❤😂❤
You are such a good teacher Marion! I love the needle turned applique and look forward to seeing how you finish your beautiful tree. Have fun on your trip. It will be fun to see how it goes.
Have a wonderful time with your Sister, Marion :) Can't wait to see your film from the show! Your tree is absolutely magical & I have very much enjoyed seeing you progress with it. Excited for a new page next time :) Safe & happy travels, lovely ladies :) Suze xXx
Have fun at the show Marion. Love your curtain dress and the tree page is looking so lovely. I love how you have the imagination to add so many different stitches and methods. Your videos are so informative and relaxing to watch. Thank you for your time xx
Marion I wait each week with great anticipation for our next 'chat'. I tell my friends I feel I'm in the room with you learning, as a fellow stitcher. Love following your trips..places I would never get to see. I live in a small country town in Western Australia, 200 km from Perth city. I've been Uk 30 years ago but am 'touring' with you. Thank you for all your enjoyable presentations. Have a grand visit in Birmingham 😊
I Was so happy to see you add a fabric leaf to your tree. I had already added 3 to mine and loved the variation. I haven't yet tried the chain stitch with the French knots, so that will be my next leaf. I thought I'd finish off with a few tufts of grass. The embroidery has been an education, not all as beautifully executed as yours, but I'm not changing it, as its a journey to look back on. I'm excited to see how you get on at the show in my home town of Birmingham. I'm don't get to see these wonderful events as I get claustrophobic in crowds. I hope you enjoy it . By the way, your curtain dress is lovely.
Thanks Denise. I have to admit that I'm not keen on crowded spaces either. If it gets too much I go out for a breather, but actually everything seemed to be quiet spacious last year it wasn't a problem.🧵🪡😊
I absolutly love the tree and leaves so beautiful !!!! Also love your curtain dress .amazing as always Marion you never stop amazing us with your talents and teaching abilities
You are so inspiring!! I keep popping in to enjoy your videos and I keep having more recommended to me. I could spend all my days watching along. Thank you for everything you create ♡
This tree is turning out to be so much fun to watch you and to stitch it too! I am enjoying all the new techniques I am learning. The mix of colors and patterns in the tree makes it so uniquely pretty. This has been my favorite project from the stitching book so far. The dress looks lovely on you. I don’t think it looks like a dress to go to a weeding. I think it is a lovely “welcome spring” dress. I particularly liked the two tone bow and the draping of the skirt. ❤❤
Beautiful magical, mystical tree. I enjoyed seeing it come to life. Very pretty curtain dress, fit for any occasion. Enjoy your adventure to the stitching show. X
You look beautiful on that dress, Marion! 👗 Cheerful color. You’re a fantastic seamstress. The tree came out beautiful. Thanks for showing us how different stitches can be used. Very clear instructions. Thanks Marion. Have fun at the Sewing for Pleasure! Warm regards, 🌷tess
Marion, you are adorable. I love all that you do and your curtain dress is just so lovely. I’m watching you from Boulder Colorado. USA and I look forward to each and every video. Thank you for being you.
Thank you for your easy to understand tutorials. I have wanted to try applique for a while, but I wasn't sure how to do it. Now, though, I'm feeling more confident and will have a go. Enjoy yourself at the show. Bye for now, Sue x😊❤
The dress looks great Marion. Made me smile though as I have the same Laura Ashley fabric as curtains in my sitting room. I have a different colour though, Autumn shades of gold and tans. Not forgetting all those different leaves you have sewn on the tree. So many new techniques to try out. Oddly I have been sewing a small embroidery using net over the fabric and embridering on top of the net. I painted the net with intense colours. Have a wonderful time at the show. Looking forward to seeing how you got on ...perhaps on Sunday evening. 😊
Well this vid will be my go-to for needle turning ... I'm a beginner at all the stitching and my first needle turning was a disaster. Lucky, I'm still proud of the piece I continue to work on ... Thank you for this relaxing and helpful video!
I love appliquè. And the tree gets more beautiful every week. Your dress is lovely. You can use the pink side of the belt on the outside. Because the pink of the neckline and the belt fits very nice together. 🤗 I hope you and your sister and friend have a great day tomorrow. We will see the video, sunday or a week later.
How funny you should show your appliqué leaf this week, I go to a monthly quilt class and that was this months project, so thank you for sharing. Your dress is fabulous too Marion
Fantastic instruction capped off with a view of your BEAUTIFUL, new dress which fits you so perfectly! I'm VERY excited to see your "Sewing for Pleasure" video of your time with your sister there--so jealous as it sounds like you're headed for a crafters-heaven! ENJOY and safe travels there and back 🙂
Thank you Marion for your video. So handy in this week's leaf as I am just about to try some needle turn . The whole tree is looking very majestic. A new page 🤔 what will we be treated to next I wonder. Your curtain dress has turned out lovely and very summery Marion. You can turn your hand to anything. Have a wonderful day today with your sister and friend and I look forward to seeing all your shenanigans whenever you post it.
The curtain dress is just as lovely as the kawandi one I think! I love both! The tree is really growing too and is beautiful! Thank you for the film and have a safe trip with your sister! ❤
Thank you, Marion. I love your create as you go style. It’s fun to see what evolves. I think you are doing so well in filming your videos. Hope you had a good Mother’s Day. Smiles from Washington State.
Just LOVED the "no-name" (=Marion style) raw edge fabric leaf!!! I made the veins a bit denser & added some longish couching stitches to them so they would hold up in the wash. Very pleased with the way it's come out. Gonna try it with other shapes as well. Thx a million 😄
Hello Marion. Every time I see the work you have carried out on your tree I am amazed. It is exquisitely beautiful - truly, a tree of life! You should be utterly proud of what you have created. As to your curtain dress, it is lovely. The colours seem both vibrant and muted at the same time. Definitely a classy combination. As always, I am looking forward to what you bring out in your next video. I know it will be a wonderful treat, whatever it is. Have a great time in Birmingham - you certainly deserve it. Take care and best wishes.
Catching up in my B&B while my husband's watching rugby after a visit to an elderly relative in Suffolk so no chance of going tonthe NEC but I look forward to watching your visit. I love the leaves and your dress is a success and in good time for the summer weather. At least coming here meant that I got wool to knit a new jumper from an old pattern to be ready to replace a favourite sweater I knitted many years ago - and still wear😊
That tree has turned a new leaf :) and it's just beautiful. I knew I'd love that dress because I loved it as a curtain, beautiful fabric and it looks stunning on you. The belt looks good either way, back or front. I could easily see a green, white, or soft pink t-shirt underneath as well. Have fun at the show.
Love the curtain dress. My Mum was a great seamstress and made all our clothes. Lots of them were made with curtain fabric because it’s usually a better quality than many dress fabrics. She didnt use second hand fabrics, (no thrift shops in those days) but curtain remnant pieces were cheap and often dress, or at least skirt, length. Though dresses in the sixties were pretty skimpy so didn’t take much fabric. And of course I was …ahem… a lot skimpier too 🙄. My boys especially see photos of me from from the sixties and are very critical of the length of my skirts… hehe. Oh to be young and skinny again 😂😂
Agree with all of this 😊 I was trying to think of what was there before thrift shops..🤔 In the UK at least there were church jumble sales. Which usually meant the church hall filled with all sorts of everything that people wanted rid of. I can't remember whether people sold their own stuff or whether it had been donated to sell for church funds. I was was when I was little.
I love your tree with all of the different leaves, so attractive ☺️. Your dress is a success! It’s really lovely, you are truly a talent Marion. I look forward to watching the video of your visit to the Birmingham show 😊❤
I really like the turmeric dyed leaf color. You are so talented. Look forward to every video. I'm trying to learn embroidery and slow stitching. You do amazing work. Also, your pinwheel is outstanding!!! ❤
I can’t tell you how beautiful this tree and the leaves are turning out ❤❤ I recently finished washing all my fabric fragments that I’ve been accruing since the fall and ironing them up, tearing crooked edges and pulling the threads. I had quite the stash of different colored threads - that and all the snippets from a monthly embroidery project that I had accumulated, that I actually tossed literally the week before I saw your video where you made the tree. I’ve never been one to save remnants, but I now have a container to save them so I can try to make a tree comparable to yours. Thank you for sharing ❤
Still laughing "stitched my finger", reminds me of the time I sent the machine needle into my finger and had to get it cut out because it broke into 3 pieces. That will always give you a reminder to be careful when sewing. I love this tree you are doing. Beautifully done dress, I love it.
Another lovely tutorial Marion. Enjoy your time away at the show. Must tell my friend about it as I’ve never heard of it. Looking forward to the next instalment. The dress looks lovely, I made one out of a duvet cover too. X
Hello Marion I missed out on last week, being on holiday with my daughter, so now I'm catching up your stitching. Love your tree, especially the leave with chainstitch and knots. I hope you enjoyed your stay in Birmingham and I will watch the video tomorrow. Warm wishes, Karin
Your tree is lovely a joy to watch. I hope to finish my tree next week . And your dress is made for a tea party it looks so beatiful. Is looks likes its made in the fifties. I love it. Hope you have a nice time in Birmingham❤️

Lovely addition of new leaves on your tree, & your dress is so no nice too ! 💗

I LOVE your dress. It’s so nice to think outside the box….or in this case, outside the dress shoppe. 💖💖💖

The dress turned out so cute! I like the bodice. It’s a good fit. And I also like the bow in the back. It’s more flattering. Your awesome ❤️

You definitely have. It’s as though you’ve been filming for years. Your friendly, kind nature certainly shines through. 😊

Catching up in my B&B while my husband's watching rugby after a visit to an elderly relative in Suffolk so no chance of going tonthe NEC but I look forward to watching your visit. I love the leaves and your dress is a success and in good time for the summer weather. At least coming here meant that I got wool to knit a new jumper from an old pattern to be ready to replace a favourite sweater I knitted many years ago - and still wear😊

I love your made up stuff! Can’t wait to stitch these leaves!
Brilliant as always. Love the dress. looking forward to seeing you video of your trip to Birmingham
I really like the turmeric dyed leaf color. You are so talented. Look forward to every video. I'm trying to learn embroidery and slow stitching. You do amazing work. Also, your pinwheel is outstanding!!! ❤
Thank you. I hope you carry on enjoying embroidery 🪡
I just love the tree, it’s beautiful. I laughed out loud when you said you felt like a wedding reject 😅. Love your channel 😊

I can’t tell you how beautiful this tree and the leaves are turning out ❤❤ I recently finished washing all my fabric fragments that I’ve been accruing since the fall and ironing them up, tearing crooked edges and pulling the threads. I had quite the stash of different colored threads - that and all the snippets from a monthly embroidery project that I had accumulated, that I actually tossed literally the week before I saw your video where you made the tree. I’ve never been one to save remnants, but I now have a container to save them so I can try to make a tree comparable to yours.
Thank you for sharing ❤
Oh dear... I'm encouraging you to stash more stuff 😅
Your dress is so pretty
Enjoy time with your sister Marion , have a lovely time at the show . Beautiful tree love all the different textures and techniques.❤

Another lovely tutorial Marion. Enjoy your time away at the show. Must tell my friend about it as I’ve never heard of it. Looking forward to the next instalment. The dress looks lovely, I made one out of a duvet cover too. X
You can't beat a good duvet dress or a curtain dress 😂
😂😂😂 and you’re close to 20k now, how wonderful 👏👏👏👏❤️❤️

Hello Marion
I missed out on last week, being on holiday with my daughter, so now I'm catching up your stitching. Love your tree, especially the leave with chainstitch and knots.
I hope you enjoyed your stay in Birmingham and I will watch the video tomorrow.
Warm wishes, Karin
I hope you had a lovely time with your daughter. I'm off to see mine today!
Lovely
Be sure to show us your trip pictures!! Can’t wait.. have a great time!❤
