  • Hi folks, in this weeks video I show how I sewed up my basic Caped Dress. The base of this one, just like my last, is super classic in style and with the cape feels so cosy and comfy to wear. I am definitely going to revisit this pattern and see what else I can come with🤓 I hope that those of you interested in sewing something similar enjoy and find the video useful. Susanne💕

    Your dress is spectacular - the fit and craftsmanship are tremendous, and the 'fussy cutting' of the print on the cape and the dress makes it that much more remarkable. Beautiful.

    Hi Suzanne, I haven't been following sewing videos on RUclips over the last few months and I've just returned to your channel after my hiatus. I just wanted to say that the quality of the editing and production of your videos has really improved leaps and bounds! I have always loved following you for your lovely personality, style (you make such beautiful things - I would wear your entire wardrobe myself!!) and your tremendously informative videos but now your editing has now really caught up. Thank you for sharing all your makes and the process with us - I look forward to catching up on the content I have missed over the last few months 💛💛💛🇦🇺

    Another great make. I have employed your technique for adding a zipper and it is so worth that machine and hand-tacking prior to using the zipper foot to finish. I know I have said it before, but I have learned so much from your videos. Thankyou. This dress is stunning!
