    Dear Alisa, thank you very much for the wonderful tutorial, that I used to draft a raglan shirt with short sleeves for my 6-year old. He did even help pinning and sewing and it looks so good although we are not finished yet. It came together so quickly - I will be making a raglan shirt for myself for sure! Thank you for sharing your knowledge on all things sewing that made this success possible.

      That is so great - getting your little ones excited and participating, that's awesome, my little one helps too - pinning, cutting the tissue paper, sewing. I am sooo happy for you! Now you can use it for long sleeve, short sleeve, add a hood to it and turn it into a hoodie, make it longer and turn it into a sporty dress for yourself - so many possibilities :)

    I have to say every draft pattern I have learned and sewed with your tutorials are A+. I just threw away a premade pattern today because the measurements were so way off. Darts were everywhere! I know I will not use that pattern and everytime I would look at it I would not be happy. From now on only my patterns will be created with your tutorials.You are easy to understand. I have made two garments from your tutorials that fit the best I've ever sewed.

    Thank you. This is very helpful! Love how the cat just walked right over and got in the way. My cats looove doing that to me. They like to sit on top of my arms, grab my arms, and headbutt my hands when I'm trying to do stuff. One of my cats just jumped on the keyboard and fastforwarded through the video so I had to go back to where I was before. LOL. The outfit you made for your daughter is adorable!

    This is a great idea . I’ve been making a lot of knit dresses and have a lot of good sized square scraps and hate to waste the fabric! I can make a load of these shirts with fun co-ordinating sleeves!

    I have always feared my sewing but because of you I achieved sewing 3 vests and 6 scarfs for Christmas. They turned out PERFECT even using faux furr....which is a nightmare.lol

    • @ThoughtfulCreativity
      @ThoughtfulCreativity  3 года назад

      Nice, great job!!! He he, faux fur - for sure is a thing, I usually love the outcome but not so much the clean up, oh my, takes me a few times to get rid of ALL if the fur. So happy for you! You did a lot of sewing! What are you going to make next?

  • @mishyfishy389
    @mishyfishy389 2 года назад +2

    I just finished my raglan sweater and it's so cute!! I was nervous about sewing the collar but your instructions were spot on. I can see one small part where I didn't stretch it far enough, but other than that it's pretty good for my first attempt 😁 thanj you for sharing!
