Thank you! I’m so pleased you enjoyed seeing everything including my mistakes 😊 I normally have to unpick something along the way and I’m learning all the time xx
Excellent tutorials and the pinafore looks amazing 😉 as for unpicking . I’m think I am the fastest un picker in Weston super mare. If I don’t have to unpick I think I haven’t done it right 😝
This is fab Michelle! Love your version and the fact you show the mistakes you make as well is great, shows it’s not just me! I hope to start this one next week so will keep you posted on how I get on 🙋🏼♀️❤️xx
Oooh yes Helen you must let me know how you get on!! I love seeing other people’s versions of patterns I have also made as each one is so different and unique 😊💕 thank you so much for watching and commenting 🥰 xx
Such a good Sew-along! I really enjoyed it. It looks a lovely straightforward sew...I should really make one soon. It's great to hear about the size you went for as I'll definitely size down also. I love the fabric you used, it's so fun and it's a lovely colour. Aww your cats are gorgeous. I used to have a black cat and she used to do the same as what Misty is doing, headbutting for fuss all the time. Thanks for this ☺️👍 xx
Yeah I’m so glad I sized down as it just gives a slightly more closer fit. The fabric makes me smile so much 😁 awww yeah Misty is a little cutie pie she also dribbles quite a bit so I usually get some slobber too 🤣
Thanks for sharing your sewalong Michelle, I am new to sewing so love watching videos like yours to learn hints and tips. You definitely included the best twirling clip with your beautiful cat xx
Thank you! 😁 yeah I got a bit confused when reading the instructions on my first version but it’s great now I know it as I can then use it in other patterns now too 👍 xx
I really enjoyed your sew -a - long. I bought this book in main because of the Olive pinafore so now am inspired to make it when I finish everything else I have planned😆Thank you 🙏
A great sewalong as usual Michelle, find myself looking forward to them every month so thank you for sharing. A great pinafore in lovely fabric, you always inspire me to want to sew more 😍
Ahhh that’s so lovely to know you look forward to them 🥰 I find watching sewing vlogs inspirational too so I’m so glad it makes you want to sew more xx
Yet another great tutorial, think I'll give this one a try. When the world is back to 'normal' you should consider teaching some sewing classes, you're a natural. x
Ahh thank you so much! That’s a lovely compliment that you think I may be good at teaching 🥰 I don’t think I have the confidence quite yet but it would be wonderful to do one day xx
I enjoy watching your videos, it’s apparent you love sewing and I laughed with you when you sewed the wrong side of your garment together, I’ve done that several times over the years of my sewing, lol. Thank you you for sharing your beautiful makes🎃
Super video Michelle. Cerys fancies a pinafore from the neeedlecord we got recently and I’d forgotten about this one. Thank you.... Misty is the perfect twirling accessory 💕
It is a lovely pinafore and so easy to wear 😊 I was quite tempted by your needle cord too as I am loving needle cord at the moment 💕 i had to put the film with Misty in as I love seeing pets in vlogs 🤣 xx
Another enjoyable video and sew along Michelle! That fabric is adorable and sewed up so nice in the Olive. You had my mouth watering with the brownies. 😁
Ahhh thank you so much!! I’m so glad you enjoy my videos that lovely to know 😊 I am really happy with the pinafore I just need more long sleeve tops to go with it for the cold weather x
Really enjoyed your sewalong, I think I may have to treat myself to the book. As a novice sewer I love picking up tips of how to construct, it does make more sense to me when I see rather than read instructions. End result looks great on you.
Thank you! Yes the book is really good and Tilly is so good with her instructions! I think hers are one of the best pattern companies for holding your hand throughout 😊 I’m the same I love learning through watching and if I can help in anyway by showing some steps visually in my sew alongs then I am one very happy bunny xx
As always Michelle, great video, clearly detailed with hiccups as well. You make it such an easy watch each month. Love the material, I’m sure I bought the same needlecord design but in pink to make something for a friend for Christmas, as she is made on cats also. Finished article looks great and am sure you will get a lot of wear out of it.
Ahhh thank you! It is such a fun fabric and I think my friends will certainly know this is very ‘me’ with all the cats 🤣 thank you so much for watching and commenting it’s lovely to have your support xx
Brilliant! Yes you should give it a go 😊 it’s a lovely dress for layering up with long sleeves tops and tights or leggings and also to wear on its own in the spring/summer xx
Yea you should! It’s a lovely easy to wear dress and I love how it can be excellent for layers to ensure I am kept warm in the winter and then I can wear it on its own in the warmer weather 👍 thank you so much for watching xx
Ahhh thank you!! So glad you enjoyed 🥰 yeah I tend to do a practice ‘twirl’ to see how the details show up and as Misty was being so cute I just had to have that in there 😻
Hi Michelle I “stumbled” across your tutorial, and have now subscribed to your channel as I enjoyed it so much. I have the Make It Simple Book and I’ve made two of these pinafores so far and I love them. However I chickened out of the poppers as I’ve only found the little plastic ones which would not look good. I ended up doing buttons and buttonholes. However I would to get the popper set that you used but I don’t understand where I need to look on your site to find a link. Could you please give me a clue? BTW I agree that everyone should have a cat to help them sew.... lockdown has made it hard to find one, but I haven’t given up hope.... Thank you again. Janice
Hiya that’s brilliant that you found me and thank you so much for subscribing 😊 don’t worry about finding the kit I have found the link for you here - www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Heavy-DUTY-POPPERS-Snap-FASTENER-Press-STUD-Sewing-Rivet-Clothing-craft-set-UK-/183663800325 Thanks again and hope you enjoy my future videos xx
Excellent video with clear instructions. Nice to see I’m not the only one who always manages to have to unpick something. Your overlooking looks super neat! May I ask which settings you used for the needle cord fabric?
Ahhh thank you so much I’m so pleased you thought it was nice and clear! That’s such a compliment! Thanks for saying my overlocking is neat I have the Brother M343D and my tension numbers were set at (from left to right) 5.5/5/6/4 but I guess every machine is slightly different depending on the fabric xx
Thank you for this, it’s next on my list, one question could you use buttons and button holes instead or would I need to change the facings? I have a black medium weight denim. Yours looks wonderful, and you explained it all so it seems like something I could have a go at.
Ahhh I’m so pleased that you enjoyed 😊 yes absolutely you can do button holes instead of snaps no problem 👍 good luck if you decide to make it I’m sure you will enjoy it x
It is such a cute print! Total impulse purchase when I saw it as it was so pretty so I am so happy I now had a finished garment out of it 😁 thank you so much for watching xx
Thanks again for lovely lovely video , I think I need to start sewing this pattern, I have the book but have not done anything in it yet . Say hi to your cats 🐈 I also have to cats. Nils and Daim. , and the are very helpful when l’m sewing 😂
This was an awesome tutorial!! I ordered the Make It Simple book for this pattern alone. I have a light weight denim I wanted to use for this pattern. Do you think it’ll work out?
Great! So glad you enjoyed watching 😊 yes a lightweight denim would be perfect! I used a lightweight needlecord for mine which is probably a similar weight! Good luck with your version I hope you have fun sewing it up xx
Haha I have just got used to it 🤣 I do sit down sometimes but as the table is high I have to put the pedal on a stool so often I just find it easier to stand. Great that you enjoyed and have fabric 🤩 x
Thank you! Yes sorry I didn’t include that bit but I have included in the description box a link to another video where a fellow sewing vlogger has done a tutorial on them so that may be worth checking out if you are wanting a closer look xx
Thank you yeah I’m happy with how it turned out 😄 yes I do sew standing up I know it is a little strange 😂 when I got my machine I put it on the table in that room which is high and it never occurred to me that you usually sit down and so I got so used to it! I find it means I keep moving a bit just like a stand up desk in an office 🤣
@@SewingBunny wow..., I’ve never seen anyone sew like that before. Perhaps when I get a higher table (especially for cutting out) I will give it a go! 😁
I have a silly question, but when sewing in the facing, wouldn't it be easier to sew the armholes together first, and then sew in the neckline using the burrito type method like you just did the armholes? I'm thinking this because it's only one thing to sew in and not two (although it would be in 2 parts I suppose), but the neck isn't a closed circle and is much straighter to pin and sew. So it wouldn't get as many bumps and pushed together bits. You would also have the long parts sewn together when you do the armholes as well so you only have the section around the neck to do. Does what I'm saying make sense, or am I confusing you? I know writing it as instructions would probably be a bit of a nightmare though to get people to understand it. I just thought that once you know how to do it the way you did, the way I'm thinking might make it sit smoother.
You are probably 100% right 😊 I’ll be honest in that I am such a visual learner and I do quite heavily rely on instructions still. I get what you mean though and yes I think it could give a better result 😊 x
Ahhh thank you so much! I’m so glad you think I make it look easy 🤣 the book is great and has a nice selection of patterns! I think it would be very easy to put pockets in but I don’t know if it would add a bit of bulk if you did in seam pockets at the side 😊 however some patch pockets would be a good option and I think the book even gives you ideas for that as well x
@@SewingBunny Thank you. Never ever think of patch pockets but they could work. I'm going to take a look at buying the book now. Thanks again for taking the time to reply. x
@@shirleyscott6997 I've just made it with the patch pockets they are included in the pattern. If you own the book you can download all the patterns from Tilly's website, much easier than faffing about tracing etc I think!
@@janetephraim4034 Thank you for this. I have just bought it now and I did not know you could download the patterns from the book. I'm going to have a proper look now. Grateful for your reply. x
I can't seem to attach the facing as it is a different size...I have checked the pattern and its all cut the right size. The back facing lines up but the front doesn't... any ideas please
Hi, could it be that the fabric has stretched out in some way? I have had that before with other garments. Sorry if that isn’t too helpful, both my versions I didn’t encounter that so that’s the only thing I can think of 🤔 x
I’m sure there is a way as the bodice is lined, so you you may be able to extend the lining sections it has already? Sorry I couldn’t be more helpful x
I did mine slightly different which I found easier it’s the way I’ve always done it I sewed the armhole facingst the armholes and the I sewed the side seams of dress and facing last Hope it makes sense
Oh no how annoying! It’s such a shame when snaps don’t work out well! Did you manage to salvage it at all? I had a couple of tops I made with bad snaps or if I put them on wrong and it is so disappointing when they don’t work x
@@SewingBunny I have put it away for now, although did manage to salvage enough to turn into a mini skirt. Going to try again and follow your tutorial, may try regular buttons 😁
Your video of how to do the facing is a lot clearer than Tilly's. I'm hoping I'll be able to finish my pinafore dress now!
Thank you! I was getting so frustrated at the facing and this video was so clear and helpful 😊
I love that you didn't edit out the "rookie error"! Gives courage to the rest of us 😊
Ahhh brilliant! Yeah I do stuff like that all the time 🤣 the seam ripper is always on hand! Xx
Thank you!! I spent ages reading this section in the book and watching the video that goes with it. Yours was a massive help, thank you!!
Ahh I am so glad I could help 😁💖 x
Great sew along video, thank you for sharing your mishaps as it really helps others less practiced x
Thank you! I’m so pleased you enjoyed seeing everything including my mistakes 😊 I normally have to unpick something along the way and I’m learning all the time xx
Excellent tutorials and the pinafore looks amazing 😉 as for unpicking . I’m think I am the fastest un picker in Weston super mare. If I don’t have to unpick I think I haven’t done it right 😝
Haha yeah my seam ripper is always close by 🤣 glad it’s not just me x
Absolutely beautiful. I love the way you explain every step. Thanks you.
Thank you so much x
Thank you for the tutorial.
You work sooooo organized. 🤗
❤️ from Belgium.

Thanks mum xx

Aww thank you xx
I have 2 different size of Taylor hams, but I could do with a tutorial on how to use them
Thank you that’s good to know! Maybe in another sew along where I use it I will do a bit more detail on it 😊
I did this dress but it got ruined with adding snaps my partner tried to hammer them as i have rheumatoid arthritis
