This one is a winner. Thank you for the detailed instructions on making a neat, couture style finish without a serger. I love it that your patterns include a range of custom cup sizes. ALL patterns should be designed in this way. It's the #1 problem home sewers have with getting a good fit, and the reason that the big pattern companies tend to add excess, almost sloppy, amounts of ease.
The capped shoulder and close to the body armhole are very nice design details. It is more comfortable, allowing greater range of motion, and more elegant, timeless, and flattering.
I am currently working on my Ava dress and I have the top almost done!! It is coming together really nicely. I got a very nice surprise yesterday when I saw you had the Brigit tee!! Of course I downloaded that pattern and can’t wait to make that next. Your patterns are very flattering and directions are easy to follow. Thank so much!!!!
You make it look effortlessly! Love watching your sew alongs. I’ve learned so many new and interesting things. Looking forward to more from you Casey. Thank you so much 😀
Great pattern, great tutorial. I just wore my linen Fern top the other day as we’ve really begun to get some warm (hot) weather. I forgot how much I love it. I’m planning to sew up another one! I can appreciate that you bought your red linen from Joann. For some of us that is our only option.
Pattern Scout's methods, sequencing, and explanation are very good. I am a lifelong sewer who is getting back into sewing, after inheriting a huge stash, and would recommend this pattern for a beginner. Cotton poplin sews itself almost.
hi, great video. could you tell me why you open and iron the seam for the french seam and then close it when you do the seam. i have never done that.thx
Hi There should be cutting toutorial regarding measurements and all to understand easily and properly to sew this beautiful dress . Anyway, u have made a beautiful dress with good explanation 👌
There are more detailed instructions on size selection and cutting in the pattern booklet when you purchase this pattern, but maybe in a future video I can do something similar with a made-to-measure pattern and pattern drafting instructions :) Thanks so much for watching!
I usually choose a lightweight interfacing for most projects (or something that feels appropriate for the fabric. I can't even remember what type this one was 😩
A 5/8" allowance is easier to sew and allows for different seam finishes (in this case, french seams). It's also cleaner to sew a wider seam allowance and then trim down to neaten edges. Some areas don't really need the 5/8" allowance, but I just keep the seam allowances consistent throughout the pattern to keep it simple so people don't have to constantly check the seam allowance for different parts of the pattern. I also use my serger quite a lot to finish seams, but wanted something a little fancier for this project. :) And I don't love the look of pinked edges on my garments, so I don't really use pinking shears. Hope that helps explain it! Thanks for watching!
So who else is binge watching all of her videos 😊
Aw thanks!
The way you put a pattern together is incredibly thoughtful. I am truly impressed! 🙌
Thank you so much, I appreciate the kind words! :) I'm obsessed with sewing and finishing! haha
I love the facing to interfacing method.
I'm so impressed by the way you've finished your beautiful dress. It's really lovely. I can't wait to make my own.
Thank you so much!

Yay! So glad you are making the patterns, thank you! I was just thinking last night that I want to make another Ava Dress this summer...

That's so great, thank you! I love wearing my Fern tops in the summer. Joann is a great resource, I shop there often ❤
So crisp and comfortable. Love it.
Nice finishing technique for the facings by using that flip the interfacing trick.
Thanks Judy! :)

It’s so cute!
Thank you Claire! ❤
I know this is an older video but did you prewash your linen since it can shrink? Thank you!

Did you add seam allowance to the puff jacket with two layers and it's how many inches or cm
What type of interfacing don’t believe it was mentioned unless I missed it please :)

Why do you sew a 5/8" seam only to trim it away? I also don't see you use pinking shears. Reason? I've used my serger to finish seams
