So cute! Wow, you are so good!! It is so impressive! I can only hope some day I can do this too, but it’s going to take lots of practice!! I love seeing your beautiful animal babies! They’re all so sweet! Thank you for sharing your talent with us!
The ULTIMATE shirt for jeans! It is really flattering and you once again have nailed the fit! So glad you showed the FBA. Can’t get enough of fitting instruction for sure! Thanks so much for sharing.
I REALLY like that blouse, the color and the pintucks... This is the kind of patterns I'm interested in.. Something for everyday.. Thanks really love your videos.
Love the video Still watching but I really love all the added details about your dress which is beautiful btw but the chin story had me laugh out loud which was really healing for me. Love it all Marie.
Amazing way to add fullness to the blouse without the top looking oversized!!! Very, very ingenious! The plaid fabric is lined up along the front placket very nicely. The back has the dominant strip 😊😊exactly in the middle of the back! Nice work!
You can almost never stop learning when you sew and make your own clothes. Whether you're beginner or an advanced sewer, there's something more to learn. As a guy making men's patterns, I watch your videos and see techniques I can use to hopefully make great patterns for my younger sisters.
Ms. Marie thank you so much for showing pattern hacks. I learn so much from you and appreciate the details and problem solving. I gain so much confidence. Zoraya Luna
I loved watching (and listening to) you bring this shirt together...and am in total agreement with all of the other commentary about how wonderful it looks on you!
Oh wow, it turned out so great! 👍And very practical for this time of year, being flannel. I was nodding vigorously when you talked about chin hairs - age plays nasty tricks on us ladies of a certain vintage 😪 Hey ho, I dare say your accountant didn't notice. If it isn't in a spreadsheet it doesn't register... 😉 Enjoy your lovely new shirt, Marie, you look fabulous 😍
That’s a great shirt! It looks fabulous on you as well. That full bust adjustment was a mind boggle, i’m in awe of your skills. You made it look so easy 😊
What a wonderful looking blouse. It fits you to a T. I can’t wait to make this pattern. Full bust adjustment and even the tips on the collar and band were so helpful. I usually avoid a 2 piece collar but those tips will really help. Love that you made it out of a fabric that shows the tucks!
I have had this pattern for several years but haven't had the courage to make it. Your tutorial is so well done and I will definitely refer to it! I am large busted which is why I've been hesitant. Thanks for showing how to increase it! ❤
suggestion: it would be helpful if you draw your lines on the pattern with a darker, thicker marker - so we could see it on the video. thank for the detailed instructions! The shirt looks great on you!
Oh Marie I love it! And so so happy you showed me how to take a frustrating collar instruction to a simple enjoyable collar! Thank goodness I found you!
Nearly split myself Re., the chin hairs! That is indeed life! These are the kind of things I remember in the wee small hours now I'm old! LOL! Thank you for a good laugh and reminding me that we're all the same.
I always pick up little tips whenever I watch one of your videos. Thank you so much for a really great tutorial. I’ve cut out my shirt from the same pattern and now I’m worried that I may also need an FBA but at least I now have some idea of how to do it for next time. 😊
Another great tutorial Marie! Best part for me was the chin hair story. It made me laugh out loud (probably because I can totally relate). So thanks for the laugh and I love your collar technique. I’ve tried it and much prefer it to the standard instructions.
Oh Marie you look adorable. That looks GREAT on you. I love this pattern. You really look good in this sort of shirt. Have a great weekend love ya girl. Kris
Thank you for making this pattern and the compliment pattern to this one. I appreciated all your commentary during your process of making this. I learned how to make the collar better with a easier method by following your way. Also I so messed up my FBA and because of you now know how to do this as well. Thank you!❤
I love this pattern and have made it 3 times. I was drawn to it because of the dart features. It’s a fairly easy pattern. The darts take time to make but other than that it’s a simple pattern. On my third blouse I used a 2.0 twin needle to make the darts by making sure the bobbin thread was a little tighter than the top thread causing the top fabric to raise up ever so slightly. All I had to do is mark a straight line for the dart and sew in that line.
I love the top on you! I’ve been wanting to make that pattern up for so long and I’m so glad that you did a full bust adjustment so I know how to do that now. Thank you for sharing.😊
I saw the packaging tape and I immediately knew the disaster that was forthcoming. I’m so glad you persevered and were able to still accomplish what seems like an incredibly complex alteration. I’m so impressed by your pattern adjustment skills! The shirt is absolutely fabulous!
I have this pattern and never got around to making it last Summer. I will try to get it done this year and will try the full bicep adjustment for more ease in the sleeves. Do not need the FBA .
Might want to use a waist or fanny pack for your cord? (Avoiding a sore shoulder from constantly carrying heavy bags on it has become an issue for me.) Bummer 😵💫about the tape debacle! I feel your pain. It’s like when you get a paintbrush hair in your fresh paint & try to remove it. Never works.🥴 Really cute shirt! I typically prefer longer sleeves since I’m usually cold. If I’m doing something messy, I’ll roll them up. I like the convenience of three quarters sleeves in the fall or spring though. Looking forward to watching the pants project, though the shirt looks great with jeans. 😊
I'm so glad you are doing the FBA. My bust measures 42". How many inches will I have to increase the bust area? I have this pattern and will closely follow what how you're enlarging the bust area. Thanks!!!
Hi Good morning from Au. Thank you very much for teaching in detail. Also would you be able to sew a men shirts and maybe jackets. I am trying to make historical modern mix shirt and jacket for my son. Inspired from Brielle website, maybe you could sew for your husband:)? It is just an idea think about. Again thank you so much for your time.
That was absolutely terrifying, full of suspense and drama. I only dream of having your skills. New ish sewer here and i sew up the pattern and if it doesn’t fit I just have to grin and bare it. I always find blouses I make tight across the back. I am going to be brave and try some of your hacks ( literally). Thanks.
Hello, I look at the amount of ease that is built into the pattern. Some patterns come with enough ease that I really don't need to do a full bust adjustment. This one was actually fairly fitted, and just to be sure that I did not have any strained buttonholes I figured it was safer to add a little bit. But it really depends on the design of the pattern. Look at the actual bus to measurement on the pattern tissue and compare it to your actual best measurement to see how much extra they're working in.
Can I use this same collar method for a men's ribbon shirt ? That would be an excellent video if you can do it ! There aren't any goof videos of how to make a men's ribbon shirt online - but like a nice one with a collar, cuffs, gathers on the back and front and a split hem at the bottom. I'm trying to make one myself but you're much better at sewing and recording videos!!
Most of the pictures of ribbon shirts that I see look like basic men's dress shirts of course with the ribbon embellishment. I'm actually working on a men's shirt for next week's video that has gathers to a yolk in the front and back more of an old west type shirt. But I don't know that that's what you're looking for. But yes if you find a man shirt collar in a pattern that is a similar cut this is definitely a usable style.
@My Bucolic Life Yep that's usually the basic style of the men's ribbon shirts but some are made with more work than others. You can make a very simple pattern but I want the yokes and gathers. I will watch your next video when it comes out I'm sure it will be helpful!
I left my accountants office, after dressing smart in my me-makes, to find my zipper was down the entire time. Luckily, my top was longish and, since they were me-made, my pants fit really well and didn’t seem to gape. I noticed while sitting in the drivers seat backing out of the lot. The fly was peeking out from the hem of my blouse. 😂😭🤣

Loved this vid! You inspired me so much I went straight to Joanns and bought the same fabric and both patterns - looking forward to your pants video!
Best collar tutorial ever!!!! Beautiful blouse!!
Thank you! 😊
I think you can call that one a big success. Nice modification instructions.
Love this pattern. Looks wonderful on you. I will need to make most of the adjustments that you did, thanks for showing me how.❤😊
I REALLY like that blouse, the color and the pintucks... This is the kind of patterns I'm interested in.. Something for everyday.. Thanks really love your videos.
Love the video
Still watching but I really love all the added details about your dress which is beautiful btw but the chin story had me laugh out loud which was really healing for me.

Your blouse is so awesome! Looking forward to the pants video, stay warm
Of all the blouses you have made, this one is the best. Looks great on you.
This pattern is on my short list of what i want to fit & accomplish before the end of the year. So cute! Love the design pintucks. Unique.
I love your blouse and it looks great on you!!! You never cease to amaze me with your sewing abilities. Great job!!!
Pearl looks so pretty. I like the way you did the bottom of the lining. Great job and I'm sure your daughter is going to love it.

I love the fit on you, wow. Thanks a lot for the step-by-step instructions on breast and sleeve. It's exactly what I need to do.

🤗🤣🤗
That’s a great shirt! It looks fabulous on you as well. That full bust adjustment was a mind boggle, i’m in awe of your skills. You made it look so easy 😊
Your shirt looks great on you…..the fitted style flatters you so well.
Queen of easing….lovely blouse.
What a wonderful looking blouse. It fits you to a T. I can’t wait to make this pattern. Full bust adjustment and even the tips on the collar and band were so helpful. I usually avoid a 2 piece collar but those tips will really help. Love that you made it out of a fabric that shows the tucks!
When I saw this pattern I did not look at it twice. After seeing it on you I went “Oh Wow”. It really looks nice, specially with a pair of jeans. 😊
Beautiful, perfect fit!
I have had this pattern for several years but haven't had the courage to make it. Your tutorial is so well done and I will definitely refer to it! I am large busted which is why I've been hesitant. Thanks for showing how to increase it! ❤

Love this blouse i have thought about making this now i probably will. So cute and so practical. Thanks.looks great on you.
Such a cute blouse! Love those clever tucks. Great video!🥰
Oh Marie I love it! And so so happy you showed me how to take a frustrating collar instruction to a simple enjoyable collar! Thank goodness I found you!
I love this blouse! The sleeves are perfect!
This is so cute and looks very good on you! Thank you for another wonderful video. Looking forward to the pants.
Wow! Beautiful shirt. Looks good with jeans.
Very cute and well fitting! I love a flannel shirt!
Nearly split myself Re., the chin hairs!
That is indeed life!
These are the kind of things I remember in the wee small hours now I'm old! LOL!
Thank you for a good laugh and reminding me that we're all the same.
Marie, I absolutely love this blouse that is really cute!!

Beautiful work ! Your videos are excellent, they help me so much- Thankyou for the work you do !! ❤
Love it. You look great. Have to get that pattern. Great instructions.
Oh it looks so cute on you. Such a great job.
That turned out so cute.
Wow, I love the shirt. I have to try a shirt like it, soon.
Oh Marie you look adorable. That looks GREAT on you. I love this pattern. You really look good in this sort of shirt. Have a great weekend love ya girl. Kris

Love those waist tucks, very flattering. Nice project.
Wonderful as usual
I love this pattern and have made it 3 times. I was drawn to it because of the dart features. It’s a fairly easy pattern. The darts take time to make but other than that it’s a simple pattern.

All I had to do is mark a straight line for the dart and sew in that line.
Yup, the double needle is the way I have always thought of pin tucks. I was a little confused by this other way.
Thank you for sharing. I never thought of using flannel. Yippee now I can make another one.
Loved this weeks make
Choice of pattern n fabric great
Look forward to next week channel xx
Cute!
I love the top on you! I’ve been wanting to make that pattern up for so long and I’m so glad that you did a full bust adjustment so I know how to do that now. Thank you for sharing.😊
beautiful good job Marie
Your top looks fantastic
I saw the packaging tape and I immediately knew the disaster that was forthcoming. I’m so glad you persevered and were able to still accomplish what seems like an incredibly complex alteration. I’m so impressed by your pattern adjustment skills!
The shirt is absolutely fabulous!
I love it! It looks like it is a lot more advanced than my beginner skill level, but I am going to get this one!
I have this pattern and never got around to making it last Summer. I will try to get it done this year and will try the full bicep adjustment for more ease in the sleeves. Do not need the FBA .
Your blouse looks great on you! Thank you for another great sew along.
Hahahahahah, I snort laughed at your colostomy bag!
Might want to use a waist or fanny pack for your cord? (Avoiding a sore shoulder from constantly carrying heavy bags on it has become an issue for me.) Bummer 😵💫about the tape debacle! I feel your pain. It’s like when you get a paintbrush hair in your fresh paint & try to remove it. Never works.🥴

I like shirts to
I'm so glad you are doing the FBA. My bust measures 42". How many inches will I have to increase the bust area? I have this pattern and will closely follow what how you're enlarging the bust area. Thanks!!!
That depends on which size you are starting with. If give yourself about 3" of ease so a finished with of 45"
Hi Good morning from Au. Thank you very much for teaching in detail. Also would you be able to sew a men shirts and maybe jackets.

Hi what a lovely shirt you made
What is correct name of fabric as never seen in uk n it looks so warm n uk never warm 😊 keep up good work Caroline x
That was absolutely terrifying, full of suspense and drama. I only dream of having your skills. New ish sewer here and i sew up the pattern and if it doesn’t fit I just have to grin and bare it. I always find blouses I make tight across the back. I am going to be brave and try some of your hacks ( literally). Thanks.
Thanks! Now I'm thinking of inserting dramatic music at the scary parts 😂🤣
I want to remind you to write on your pattern directions the adjustments to the collar seam allowance...😉
Love your shirt but how do you decide which patterns need a full bust adjustment and which ones do not thank you.
Hello, I look at the amount of ease that is built into the pattern. Some patterns come with enough ease that I really don't need to do a full bust adjustment.

Flannel shirts are like secret Pajamas 😊
🤣🤣yes!
I left my accountants office, after dressing smart in my me-makes, to find my zipper was down the entire time.

Oh 😳🤣🤣😳 I hear you!
I laughed at it to
