Lol, I did a paper on the Hight vs Highth. The gist was the latter is a modern colloquialism that rose from other measurements like lengTH and widTH. But Hight is Correct. The assignment was to see if we could take a mundane topic and make a full technically formatted research paper. Have to love those old AP classes and the random things you remember! I did an econ paper equating credit reporting agencies to Pinky and the Brain trying to take over the world. Teacher said it was the only title page that made him laugh because I printed a picture of the cartoon! Lol, thanks for the trip down memory lane!
Glad to see the “team” back together!!😁 Back (way back) in high school, I made a new dress almost every Saturday- I had 3 or 4 patterns that I swapped out parts of, sleeves from one, bodice from another, etc! It was a big help to have a head start because I hadn’t learned how to draft a pattern yet!! Have a great weekend, you two!!❤️
I swear, this is what they do on commercial patterns anyway! Every new release, I side eye a dress and think….I already have that pattern, they just changed the sleeves. Which is understandable, and of course convenient if you just want a new look without playing Dr Frankenstein. But I like sewing science 🧟♂️
Marcy - Your new video is so "Ebullient"😁You are "sew" creative! I love all of the wonderful ideas & suggestions! Please make a video on how you incorporated those scallops in the fabric into a neckline feature! Thank you for sharing your ideas and expertise! 👏
Sew glad you're back!!!! Bring the patterns on. I cannot wait. I think I've made Vogue 9253/1753 at least 7 times. The last time I mashed it with McCalls 8098 pants to make an unbelievable jumpsuit. Thank you sew much for the Vogue 1493 Origami Jacket. I love it. I had two of them ( of course). I just recently shared one with a dear friend. Glad you and Rob are back. Hope you both are prospering in your lives together,🥰🥰🥰
Thank you so much Anmaree, and I LOVE hearing this sewing rundown! Did you do the tiered pants view for the mashup?? Isn’t that origami jacket amazing….I’ve made it about 7 times now, my favorite is going floor length with it!
So wonderful to see you two! Every time I see your videos it brings me joy! Off to find a way to create something fabulous for an event in 9 days! Thank you for the inspiration!
Hi from UK, just found you Marcy. Great tips you have given us all. Switching up patterns,, adding on, cutting off, using unusual fabric etc. Thanks so much. You and your husband are so cute together too. 😍
Am I glad to see you beauties back on your channel. Looooking good as always. I love your take on what to do with your own patterns it is a great idea. See you again 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Your comment to changing up the pattern by piecing different ones together was actually a hack my late mother used to do all the time! Maybe it was the sleeves, maybe the bodice, whatever floated her boat @ the time & that’s what she did. There wasn’t anyone could tell her not to either! I’ve picked that up from my mother, & now I do the same w/ my sewing projects. So thank you for bringing that tip back to life. It was a chance that I was suggested this channel, but there’s some very familiar tips as well once I actually clicked on it & opened. Like Olaf from Frozen says: All Good things, All Good things. YOU my Dear; are amazing! Keep it up!😊
Yes to a scallop tutorial. And an explanation of negative ease - this year I'm working on learning ease, fit and tailoring. Ease can be negative... OK? OK, you've talked me into it - I'll try a half circle skirt. Yay for patterns from you! Much fun. Good seeing both of you Crazy Kids. We're doing OK, up here in the snowy north. About 2 weeks ago I finished my version of a 1951 weskit/vest for the Foundations Revealed competition. Teal blue fabric, hand quilted fish, machine quilted water (the theme of the competition was nature, so I 'depicted' my favorite in-city fishing spot). OH! And I brought home a Featherweight of my very own. In. Love. Lord, but that thing can stitch... - Cathy (&, accidently, Steve), Ottawa/Bytown/Pimisi
You have the best, EBULLIENT personality! Always love a Marcy video. Can not understand why you’ve never been picked up for a major tv and/or movie role. It love that you are here on RUclips.
(**SCREAMING**) HI MARCY AND ROB!!! It's like seeing old friends!!! I absolutely loved this video!!! I have four crates (16"x16"x16") of patterns that I would love to be able to use again and this video has inspired me! I live in Westchester and teach a basic sewing class in Dobbs Ferry on Wednesday evenings. I think my sewing students would be so stoked if you could visit one of our classes. You have an open invitation!!
You know, with your oomph and more is more attitude and your pleated trim and quilted fabric for volume, I think I now want to see you in something 18th century. :D I wanted to say you'd been inspiring me to be more adventurous with my sewing for a very long time; but then I realised one of my first projects was a dress where I moved the darts and made it sleeveless to suit my vision; so even though said dress was a boring beige, I guess the truth is more that I've always related to your approach to sewing on some level. :D This list is a great example of that attitude.
@@handmadeharriells Yessss! I am certain there are wax print 18th century dresses out there. I think Not Your Momma's History has something in that vein. (I don't really follow her because there are only so many people I can keep up with, but I come across her every now and then.)
I love this video. I’m quite new to sewing and I love seeing how you can personalise a pattern to make it your own. Thank you for sharing your ideas, I’m so glad I’ve found your channel!
Hello Marcy! I looove your channel! It is what I needed to push me over the wall to really get started sewing. Thank you so much for your cheerful and positive outlook. I appreciate ya! Learning so much from you. Thanks! Bought me some stickas from the dolla sto today! Decorating my sewing machine and my new sewing space my husband refashioned for me. Looking forward to more videos.☺Peace Out!!✌
You are amazing. Love tweaking. i have been sewing a top then added big gathered sleeves/ high low hem / also done a big bell sleeve - my hubby asked are you going to sew another one and YEP was the answer. There is nothing wrong with having 5 tops mostly the same but in different fabrics 😅. I call it a ME top because it is so meeeeeee
Thank you so much Marcy and Rob, I really really enjoyed watching you take us through your different ways of changing patterns and you certainly have it right!!!!!!!! I’ve subscribed and given you a thumb’s up too. And I’m very well too thanks for asking. Please stay safe and well too xxx Mags
Hello from Canada, I made my entire wardrobe when I was in my teens, a looooooong time ago. I have a huge fabric stash but the Mojo has gone missing. Marcy, you have enough Mojo for everybody. Thank you for the awesome video. That navy blue pinstripe frock with the unfinished neckline that made me look like nun is getting scalloped. Woohoo.
WOW. I cut up a lot of rtw clothing as a teen, but how cool to have made your full wardrobe from scratch! Yes, it’s time to get your sewing superpowers back. I hope those scallops are happening this weekend!
I’m doing really well at the moment. Thanks for asking! Just realized that your Vogue duster was what made me think I could make something as well. So I made kimono-like, uhm, kimono. And I’m still very proud of it.
You’re so welcome, and we’re very glad to hear it 💗 I love that it inspired you to sew a different look than what was in the video, that’s really what I hope for-I almost never sew the pattern as-is, so why should y’all sew exactly what’s in the video?🥰
That first dress you showed, I used to have a white cotton one but with an empire waist and the cutest black and red bandana styled paisley trimmings on all the tiers! I loved it but it has sadly been misplaced. Thanks so much for sharing that pattern I can finally try to recreate it if I ever find a similar fabric!
First time watching you. You are adorable. Love your video. Your style is a little to young for me but the ideas you give are magical. Thanks for sharing!!!!
Thankya Debbie! One of the many things I love about the sewing community is the inspiration we draw from each other, even if the style or color palette isn’t our thing 💗
Love this video! I have just begun to try altering my patterns to make them more mine so this video showed up on my feed "right on time" Thank you so much for coming into my world just when I needed it! And just I would love to learn more about adding "scallops" to the bottom of that coat!
So glad you found us! It’s my belief that every pattern needs alteration, it’s a rare bird that’s a “one size fits all”. I need to do some scallops for y’all soon!
This is my first time seeing your channel. I’m so impressed and excited to see what you have in store for us. I’m a prolific sewist as well. New subscriber.
hey Bettye, this response is from an impersonator! They've been blocked and reported, but I'm leaving the comment up so that RUclips can see it and hopefully remove the account altogether. All that said....we're glad to hear you're good! Planning on a longer Harriell fix soon, Rob's got some catching up to do 😉
Your video and tips were awesome and your hilarious. Just what I’ve been looking for. I’ve been sewing for more years than I can count and although I stepped away from it a bit, I’m back. You have refreshed the spark in me to do what I use to do and that is to change up a pattern, pair it with another pattern. You gave some really great tips and ideas and I appreciate that. I’ve now subscribed to your channel. Keep it fresh, keep it warm and mostly keep it fun. Thanks. 0:12
WOW!!WOW!! WOW!!!!. Such fabulous inspiring ideas.I will spend March and April trying out some of these and have already started buying the fabric ( 🙂( while I was watching this video.I was so excited to see your ideas on changing patterns, I have seen them no where else but I love just them many many of them. PLEASE Keep sharing your creativity with us. AND Please do a part two.
Hold up, hold up, hold up! Do you have a pattern coming out? 🤯 I cannot wait for the details. I love what you do and how you do it. #FashionPassion #MarriageGoals
I’m glad you popped up in my feed. I was too through after your joggers oops turned jumpsuit…..yaaassss….I loves. I totally get it and that was a good one. New follower!!! Now to practice sewing . Blessings lovely one. Love your style too
Brilliant thank you for this tutorial loads of ideas here.... I have a few patterns but as of today still not jumped into making clothes... I have promised myself that I will this year .... Thanks again from a cold Wales in the UK
I would like one of everything please! Thanks so much for sharing your tip and tricks. This was so helpful because I need a dress for a wedding this summer. You inspire me!
So good to see you both!! We ❤️ you here in Miami 🌴 Thank you for all of the fabulous tips. I'm attending my step-daughters wedding April 2nd , the colors are Teal & Gold. I've been procrastinating because I have not been able to come up with anything, however your idea of blending patterns is a great idea and I think I have finally come up with a dress that I want to make for her wedding. Thank you so much!!
That’s EXCELLENT! I hope you sewed all weekend long! We’re going to a wedding next weekend and I did a little slam sewing of my own 💗 Congrats to your step daughter!
I love your videos. And I am a bit envious of your colourful wardrobe. I love jeans and seem to go for more blue and less color fabrics, after watching your videos I decided I need to change that.
Yay! I'm glad your schedule was so full with that show you had been posting snipits about on Insta, but I'm even more glad you're back here again! Ok, video's over, time for more chatter. First, your hair looks AMAZING!! Got a little chop done? I guess the warmer weather in the south kinda makes it necessary. How about we just say FUN to describe fabric if we want to stop using the word "crazy?" About adding length to the back of the joggers pattern: so is that why sweatpants, leggings, and hosiery always ends up looking like my old pregnancy pants did? Rode waaaay up over the belly to meet "the girls" while the back waistband sank down to be at a normal height. SO annoying! HIII, ROB!! We've MISSED you!! Please make more guest appearances here, we love to see you! (I'm sure you didn't REALLY want to know how I am, but I'm suffering from a lack of SNOW here in PA. This has probably been our warmest winter in decades, and I am NOT ready for hot weather yet! Though, when it gets hot, I do tackle more sewing projects cuz my basement is sooooo much cooler than the rest of my townhouse. Hmm...) Okay, I love you both, thank you so very much for the entertainment, and take care! 🫂❤️🫂
We DO want to know, and I, being a summer baby, am agog at a lack of snow being a problem ! 😅 Hope you’re enjoying the sewing room whatever the weather. Yes…it’s easier to pop in on instagram, but, it’s so nice to be back here. And DOUBLE YES, this is why pants ride up in the front and down in the back, some of us need more fabric real estate to cover the curves in the back! Ps, Rob is getting allllllla these memos. I told him I’m going to have to rename the channel "the handmade HARRIELL” 🤣
We love see Rob….you are such ebullient fun couple!!! I still have an actually made garment from a pattern but I have plenty of patterns for when I am going to take that Leap 😊. Thank you for all your tips. They are extremely helpful. And I too want to make a garment out of an actual quilt. I’m probably going to start with a hoodie because I already do you have that pattern in my stash. AND!!!!!!!… have you always hidden the microphone in your hair?….because that is freaking awesome!!!!!
Jump on in, the water’s FINE! That first time you sew something wearable is all it takes 🥰 And yes, the hair is easiest for me! When I do theater that’s almost always where they hide it. There’s definitely plenty of curls to keep it locked in 🤣
Girl, I'm all over the idea of being extra. Lol. I'm back into my crocheting mood so I decided it was time to learn mosaic crochet. But, me being me, I could not possibly make a simple patch or sampler square for practice- no! I made a cardigan for my partner and it had to have a dramatic color scheme and a contrasting ribbing as well. Took me all winter.
@@handmadeharriells What? You want a life?? It is nice to see you whenever you are seen. During COVID with no performing is one thing so as we slowly claw our way back to normalcy of sorts, you guys are performing again. Your followers adore you no matter how often you post.
Marcy, I’ve been experimenting with the TDCO (Top Down, Center Out) method for fitting pants, with a lot of success! Have you heard of this? The crooked hem has an awesome series on this method of pants fitting. It came out in the summer issue of Threads.
Yes, I saw that threads article! They have the best stuff. I also love fitting from the top down on bodices with shoulders, I heard Kenneth King talk about that at a demo at Mood.
Lol, I did a paper on the Hight vs Highth. The gist was the latter is a modern colloquialism that rose from other measurements like lengTH and widTH. But Hight is Correct. The assignment was to see if we could take a mundane topic and make a full technically formatted research paper. Have to love those old AP classes and the random things you remember! I did an econ paper equating credit reporting agencies to Pinky and the Brain trying to take over the world. Teacher said it was the only title page that made him laugh because I printed a picture of the cartoon!
Lol, thanks for the trip down memory lane!
PINKY AND THE BRAIN. I love alllllll of this!!!!
"Nothing in my closet is safe!" My new motto for 2023! :D
😁it’s like the tagline for some sort of sewing cop buddy movie 🤣
'Didnt realize how much I missed you two, until I saw you here. You're refreshing
🥰thanks Dottie, we’ve missed it here too!
Glad to see the “team” back together!!😁 Back (way back) in high school, I made a new dress almost every Saturday- I had 3 or 4 patterns that I swapped out parts of, sleeves from one, bodice from another, etc! It was a big help to have a head start because I hadn’t learned how to draft a pattern yet!! Have a great weekend, you two!!❤️
That is so smart! Why reinvent the wheel? 😊
I swear, this is what they do on commercial patterns anyway! Every new release, I side eye a dress and think….I already have that pattern, they just changed the sleeves. Which is understandable, and of course convenient if you just want a new look without playing Dr Frankenstein. But I like sewing science 🧟♂️
Death Proof mama in the skirt, is that you?😮
Marcy, you are absolutely fabulous, creatively, as well as personality! Watching your videos is such a treat! Talent, talent, talent!
Thank YOU so much ! 🥰🥰🥰🥰
I absolutely miss your videos. I have a mess of a craft room and can’t sew. Thanks for your wonderful videos. Hey Rob👋
Haha! Whenever a sewing tornado hits my room, I take a day to organize and get all sorts of new ideas as I’m cleaning…….nudge, nudge! 😉
I can’t tell you how much “freedom in sewing” this video gave me. I’m excited to put these ideas into my projects. Thank you.
That is SO EXCELLENT to hear! I hope you’re stitching with wild abandon!
YOU are very talented! You also look terrific in everything you've made and your husband id a lovely man! Live long and prosper!
Thank you so much, from both of us 🖖🏽!
Marcy - Your new video is so "Ebullient"😁You are "sew" creative! I love all of the wonderful ideas & suggestions! Please make a video on how you incorporated those scallops in the fabric into a neckline feature! Thank you for sharing your ideas and expertise! 👏
Alrighty, it’s on the list!
Sew glad you're back!!!! Bring the patterns on. I cannot wait. I think I've made Vogue 9253/1753 at least 7 times. The last time I mashed it with McCalls 8098 pants to make an unbelievable jumpsuit.

Glad to be back! Got more coming for you today 💗
I missed you too! Hope your new patterns will cater to us big beautiful women. Can't wait.
I’m trying my best to cater to a wide range-I’ll have details soon!
@@handmadeharriells either way I'll still love ya and call you my sewing teacher lol
Yes we love seeing your works and tips! Even simple patters like this makes the outcome so beautiful. 🤩
Thank you! I’ve got more garment video ideas in the hopper 💡
I already alter for my 6' frame and it's nice to know I'm not alone with messing around with it further.
Oh yeah. Plenty of messing around with sewing in these parts!
Feeling raised spirits after watching y’all. You’re so cute and funny!! Both of you 😅😂😅
That’s wonderful to hear. Thank you!!
Your comment to changing up the pattern by piecing different ones together was actually a hack my late mother used to do all the time! Maybe it was the sleeves, maybe the bodice, whatever floated her boat @ the time & that’s what she did. There wasn’t anyone could tell her not to either! I’ve picked that up from my mother, & now I do the same w/ my sewing projects. So thank you for bringing that tip back to life. It was a chance that I was suggested this channel, but there’s some very familiar tips as well once I actually clicked on it & opened. Like Olaf from Frozen says: All Good things, All Good things. YOU my Dear; are amazing! Keep it up!😊
Thank you so much Charlena 💗! What a wonderful passion your mother gave you, I bet you think of her every time you sew. Sewing is empowering, truth!
Yes to a scallop tutorial. And an explanation of negative ease - this year I'm working on learning ease, fit and tailoring. Ease can be negative... OK? OK, you've talked me into it - I'll try a half circle skirt.
Yay for patterns from you! Much fun.
Good seeing both of you Crazy Kids. We're doing OK, up here in the snowy north. About 2 weeks ago I finished my version of a 1951 weskit/vest for the Foundations Revealed competition. Teal blue fabric, hand quilted fish, machine quilted water (the theme of the competition was nature, so I 'depicted' my favorite in-city fishing spot). OH! And I brought home a Featherweight of my very own. In. Love. Lord, but that thing can stitch...
- Cathy (&, accidently, Steve), Ottawa/Bytown/Pimisi
I could’ve sworn I replied to you! Isn’t that featherweight GORGEOUS. And I bet your competition quilt was too 😍
You are inspiring!
And the two of you are so cute together.
You have the best, EBULLIENT personality! Always love a Marcy video. Can not understand why you’ve never been picked up for a major tv and/or movie role. It love that you are here on RUclips.
I wouldn’t kick a major role outta bed 😜 and I’d still play over here on RUclips to boot!

Your videos always make me smile! Prints look so good on you. LOVE your style ❤. I have a few patterns I’m going to play around with now.
EXCELLENT! Play time with patterns is the best!
I would like one of everything please! Thanks so much for sharing your tip and tricks. This was so helpful because I need a dress for a wedding this summer. You inspire me!
There’s a lot of wedding sewing going on in this thread! My advice: start early. Then you can make multiple looks 😜
@@handmadeharriells Thanks so much!
So good to see you both!! We ❤️ you here in Miami 🌴 Thank you for all of the fabulous tips. I'm attending my step-daughters wedding April 2nd , the colors are Teal & Gold. I've been procrastinating because I have not been able to come up with anything, however your idea of blending patterns is a great idea and I think I have finally come up with a dress that I want to make for her wedding. Thank you so much!!
That’s EXCELLENT! I hope you sewed all weekend long! We’re going to a wedding next weekend and I did a little slam sewing of my own 💗
Congrats to your step daughter!
I love your videos. And I am a bit envious of your colourful wardrobe. I love jeans and seem to go for more blue and less color fabrics, after watching your videos I decided I need to change that.
Manuela, I’m all about personal style, even if it’s all-black….but I LOVE to hear I’ve inspired some color 🥰🥰🥰
Fun watching this while I work on a jacket I cobbled together from a blouse pattern! Good vid per usual! Interested in your hinted-at project!
So many hints 😅💗Love that you’re sewing with us!
Ahhhh, welcome back!!!
You set my brain on fire. I will be trying some of these for sure. Thanks foe the boost . Subbed
Hahahaaaaa I love it! Thank you!
Love your creativity! Thank you ❤️
You’re most welcome!
Fabulous ideas!!! I also like to change up patterns. Thank you, for all the great info.
Love y'all so much! So adorable!
Thank you!
Love your videos and always great to see Rob popping in 😊 x
Loved the video.some great tips....🤔glad you are back. Any chance you have some more upcycles for us??
I’ve got some ideas!💗💗
Yay! I'm glad your schedule was so full with that show you had been posting snipits about on Insta, but I'm even more glad you're back here again!
Ok, video's over, time for more chatter. First, your hair looks AMAZING!! Got a little chop done? I guess the warmer weather in the south kinda makes it necessary.
How about we just say FUN to describe fabric if we want to stop using the word "crazy?"
About adding length to the back of the joggers pattern: so is that why sweatpants, leggings, and hosiery always ends up looking like my old pregnancy pants did? Rode waaaay up over the belly to meet "the girls" while the back waistband sank down to be at a normal height. SO annoying!
HIII, ROB!! We've MISSED you!! Please make more guest appearances here, we love to see you!
(I'm sure you didn't REALLY want to know how I am, but I'm suffering from a lack of SNOW here in PA. This has probably been our warmest winter in decades, and I am NOT ready for hot weather yet! Though, when it gets hot, I do tackle more sewing projects cuz my basement is sooooo much cooler than the rest of my townhouse. Hmm...)
Okay, I love you both, thank you so very much for the entertainment, and take care! 🫂❤️🫂
We DO want to know, and I, being a summer baby, am agog at a lack of snow being a problem ! 😅
Hope you’re enjoying the sewing room whatever the weather. Yes…it’s easier to pop in on instagram, but, it’s so nice to be back here. And DOUBLE YES, this is why pants ride up in the front and down in the back, some of us need more fabric real estate to cover the curves in the back!
Ps, Rob is getting allllllla these memos. I told him I’m going to have to rename the channel "the handmade HARRIELL” 🤣
I 🎉 the ebullient crenolin dress, also your jazz tunes.
Ain’t that jazz smooth 😎
I’ll tell ya, I love having music under the videos, but I do wish there was more in the Jazz category!
I just love you too guys together you’re just such a cute and beautiful couple need I say more I love and I enjoy watching the two of you❤️💖💕💗
Thank you Betty! He’s been too long away, I’m reading every comment to him to get Rob back more 😁😁
You two are adorable!❤
😁🤗
Such a fun video! You both have made my day!😊
We’re very glad to hear it!
Thanks sooo much for sharing your ideas! Absolutely loved this video!❤️❤️❤️
I might have to do what you did with that McCalls pattern. I have a dress I love but the sleeves are too tight. And that’s an awesome idea.
It’s SO easy, you’ll wanna do it to everything!
Loved seeing you ..great info...have a beautiful weekend!!
We did have a beautiful weekend…so beautiful I stepped away from electronics! Hope you did too 💗
We love see Rob….you are such ebullient fun couple!!! I still have an actually made garment from a pattern but I have plenty of patterns for when I am going to take that Leap 😊. Thank you for all your tips. They are extremely helpful. And I too want to make a garment out of an actual quilt. I’m probably going to start with a hoodie because I already do you have that pattern in my stash. AND!!!!!!!… have you always hidden the microphone in your hair?….because that is freaking awesome!!!!!
Jump on in, the water’s FINE! That first time you sew something wearable is all it takes 🥰
And yes, the hair is easiest for me! When I do theater that’s almost always where they hide it. There’s definitely plenty of curls to keep it locked in 🤣
First time visitor hello Marcy!
Loved this inspiring video!
💗Thank you so much!
Love your channel! Awesome content to make me get to the sewing machine 🤩
Yesssssss get to that machine!
Great video. Thanks!
Girl, I'm all over the idea of being extra. Lol. I'm back into my crocheting mood so I decided it was time to learn mosaic crochet.
But, me being me, I could not possibly make a simple patch or sampler square for practice- no! I made a cardigan for my partner and it had to have a dramatic color scheme and a contrasting ribbing as well. Took me all winter.
YES. Go extra or go home!
I just found your channel and subbed. Love this! Great ideas!
So happy to have you here Delores!
Where have you been??? Nice to see you.
I’m starting to realize weekly videos + life are not the easiest equation 🫠
@@handmadeharriells What? You want a life?? It is nice to see you whenever you are seen. During COVID with no performing is one thing so as we slowly claw our way back to normalcy of sorts, you guys are performing again. Your followers adore you no matter how often you post.
The front opening tip is 🥳
the use of birthday party emoji vis a vis sewing tips is also 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳

Hello Marci I missed you love your personality and your videos you are a very beautiful woman thank you for sharing your beauty and knowledge.
Thanks! You’ve enticed me to go through my patterns and use some imagination. BTW…how do you organize your patterns?
Oooooo I gotta do a video on that…..
I am well! I miss you two!!
Good to hear 💗💗💗
Your amazing. Such great tips.
💗thank you, Marisol!

Marcy, I’ve been experimenting with the TDCO (Top Down, Center Out) method for fitting pants, with a lot of success! Have you heard of this? The crooked hem has an awesome series on this method of pants fitting. It came out in the summer issue of Threads.
Yes, I saw that threads article! They have the best stuff. I also love fitting from the top down on bodices with shoulders, I heard Kenneth King talk about that at a demo at Mood.
☺️☺️ do you have a hack for taking a full skirt and creating a skirt or wide leg pants??
I don’t…..but I’m intrigued to look into it!
