Thanks Angela for a great round up of some lovely patterns, many of which I haven't come across before, but now think I need to make! I'm really enjoying this series, it's very inspiring 😊xx
Thank you Angela for the inspirational video,you have highlighted some terrific patterns.My favourite wrap dress is the Appleton wrap dress as I love how the neckline is constructed.I bought it originally as a Guthrie and Ghani sewing society kit and have made it many times since.l do like the look of the Stasia dress.I did enjoy your sewing room tour but for some reason I couldn’t add a comment.You are so tidy and organised I am afraid you put me to shame😂
Aaaahh yes - the Appleton wrap dress is lovely too - I had forgot about that one! I love the stasia, it's a firm favourite if mine! Thank you so much 🥰
Thanks for sharing all these patterns. It's very helpful. I'd like to add some patterns myself. The Sew Over It Georgie dress - it's a faux wrap with a lined bodice. I have 4 but have not lined the bodice with any of them, I just folded back the neckline and top stitched it. The Tilly and the Buttons Bettine dress. It's designed for woven fabrics but Tilly has a tutorial on her website on how to turn it into a jersey dress. I have 2 in jersey and really like them. 😊
Aahh great suggestions - and I had totally forgotten about the Bettine - that’s such a cute dress. Thank you so much for adding these suggestions - they’re great 😊 ❤️
I love the Westcliffe dress. I have just cut out my second. I feel very comfy and secure in the first one and really enjoyed making it. I think the Westcliff dress pattern cover photo doesn't do it any favours at all. I also like the Pattern Emporium Own Your Magic Dress. I made a stripey one a couple of weeks ago and haven't had a chance to wear it yet, but now the sun has remembered how to shine, I should get the opportunity. I avoid strappy dresses, as a 34F cup, I need more support than skinny straps allow. Lots of choice in your roundup.
@@india1422I found that too so never wear them. I’m thinking of lengthening the bodice by an inch or so the next time I make it. If it still looks awful I will call it a day
😅love your video, very informative. I tend to go for t-shirt dresses as they are comfortable to wear and look nice on almost anyone. The black dress you made with the long sleeves is fabulous. I think that style is very complimentary. I have made a couple in woven fabric. As far as body con goes, I think a lot of woman aren’t able to pull this off and for me, they are made for young woman with a fabulous shape. From any of your videos I e seen you look fabulous in everything.❤
Love your Stasia dress. I like the asymmetrical wrap skirt on McCall’s 7893. Nancy Zieman had the 1st sewing programme on television in the US. Lovely lady and very knowledgeable. I recommend Pattern Emporium. The patterns include tons of options and often include hacks for using sleeves, etc. from other patterns. Own Your Magic dress and Seachange jumpsuit are on my to sew list. Flawsome is a lovely bodycon style. She’s just started a 50% off pattern on Fridays, too. Thanks for a great video, Angela!
I love the Galena dress. I,have made it 8 times now including twice for a non sewing friend. But now I am eyeing up the Stasia dress and thinking this might be my next obsession lol
Another great round up and even MORE patterns added to my wish list😂😂😂. I do need more knit patterns though. Westcliff highest on my list at the moment but that could change!!! About to start the Victory patterns Rowena jumpsuit. Happy Sewing 😊. Lynne
What perfect timing, I had just given up on looking for the dress style I had in my mind …….. and then there is was in your video, the Charlotte Dress! My mum had some older magazines I was flicking through and saw a beautiful striped dress with a rope style cord as a tie in a channel, (I think it may have been Ralph Lauren) now I can make my own ❤
This was perfectly timed to motivate me to use my stash. I really liked some of your suggestions and hadn't seen all of them, so definitely an informative video. Thanks for taking the time to put it together.
Great vlog, loads of fabulous ideas thank you. I have that simplicity pattern and mine says both woven and jersey. Definitely on my make list for the summer ❤
I made a Stasia dress after seeing yours! I agree the pattern pictures don't really do it justice. I'm also a big fan of the Kielo wrap dress because I like how the wrap bit hides my tummy! 😂
Another really interesting and informative video. I like the look of the Estelle dress and also the Westcliffe dress, which I’d always dismissed before. I know I’ve said it before, but my favourite is the Stasia which is so much nicer than the one shown on the packaging. I’ve made 2 midi versions (and the top!) and they’re really flattering and comfortable! Thanks Angela xxx 😘 looking forward to your jumpsuit video!
You make such lovely dresses. I’m trying to relearn how to sew knits and oh my am I struggling. I managed one cute knit summer dress but my knit pajamas are a hot mess.
Oh no I’m sorry to hear that - have you tried looking up RUclips videos for tips etc? I hope you manage to see some that you love. Thanks so much for watching ❤️
Your dress is beautiful, love the sleeve hack, it really suits the pattern!
Thankyou 😊😊!

I can’t wait to give the Westcliffe a go. I’m going to check out the Magic Dress.
Thank you so much ❤️
I've made it twice and it looks awful on me. The crossover of the bodice is way too high for me
@@india1422I found that too so never wear them.
I’m thinking of lengthening the bodice by an inch or so the next time I make it. If it still looks awful I will call it a day

Thank you so much 🥰❤️

Thankyou 😊😊! ooh an excellent choice!
I love the pattern emporium follow me dress. I have made two sleeveless with the flounce. It is surprisingly quick to sew up.
Oo I like the sound of the flounce!!

Oh no I’m sorry to hear that - have you tried looking up RUclips videos for tips etc? I hope you manage to see some that you love.
Thanks so much for watching ❤️
I feel like I’ve tried every tip so far. But there are still a few I need to test out more
The dress you are wearing, I didn’t hear the name of the pattern. If you would tell me the name I’d appreciate it. Thank you.😁
Ah no problem. It’s the Sew Liberated Stasia dress. It’s one of my favourites 🥰
💙🧶🌈🍓
❤️❤️❤️
The styles I like don't fit my "old lady" body anymore
😓 oh I’m sorry to hear that
