    Congratulations on getting to the summit. Lovely pictures of the Scottish country side. I use the technique of putting woven pockets in jersey fabric too. It just makes sense to me as I am always stuffing heavy things into my pockets. I bought a Lady McElroy remnant at the Stitch festival also and am making a co-ord set. I'm still working on the top but hope to finish it this week.

      Thanks Barbara! I can't believe I've done it. I'm so happy my knees didn't betray me hahaha. Ooh co-ord. I am quite obsessed with them too and Lady Macelroy cotton's are great for our (showery) summer!

      Ah yes that would be a good pairing! I'm thinking of going since Harrogate is not that far from Newcastle but I think I will just go for one day. The workshops are not available on the website yet so not sure which day would be best. I better prepare my shopping budget too. Enjoy shopping 😅🤣🤣

    This is the best video that I have seen about the festival, the tips are very useful for people attending for the first time. I am a Londoner so I usually go and this year was no exception. Like you, I bought at the Lady McElroy remnant section. I made a skirt with it , which got compliments from complete strangers because of the amazing fabric, and I am now working on a waistcoat with the leftover fabric. I hope I bump into at the Stitch Festival next year.

    The black version gets my vote. :) I'm 5' and pay attention to the details that make a dress or top look frumpy. We have to be so careful with sleeve length and other adjustments. We are about the same size. I recently made a linen shift dress with puffy sleeves, making me look pregnant. LOL, I'm not. I'm going to start incorporating zippers, princess seams, and shirred panels in the back of the dress. Trimming the the size down of any ruffle or flair also helps. I love your style and appreciate that you are sharing your sewing skills. I need all the help I can adjusting my petite stature.

    • @Justine_made_it
      @Justine_made_it 5 місяців тому

      Thank you! The black one is the one I have been wearing at work. I have worn it with either black or nude sleeves undershirt. I love the trend of big puffy sleeves but it is challenging to pull it off when you are petite! I have made another one of these Ganni inspired tops and hopefully will post it soon ☺️

    Thank you so much for putting this video out! I've just bought the corset style jacket pattern you used and I found your tips very useful especially the Maratex thread and identifying the pattern pieces once they're cut out. What size jacket did you make please? Sometimes I find McCalls patterns quite big..... Thanks for responding 😀!

    • @Justine_made_it
      @Justine_made_it 8 місяців тому

      Your are welcome 🤗 My measurements are 34-29-38 inches and I cut size 12. It's's a little roomy around the chest area. It is a corset style jacket so I could have adjusted that area to be true to the style of the pattern but I'm comfortable with it as it is. Good luck with your project ❣️

    • @dglady5168
      @dglady5168 8 місяців тому

      Justine- thanks ever so for responding! I'll give the 12 a go (I'm a size 10/12 but a pensioner so not as swelte as you! ) but I'll decrease the seam allowance which will be easy enough on my overlocker. Many thanks once again 🤗

      @Justine_made_it 8 місяців тому

      Ah nice! Id like to try the hoodie option with long sleeves and thumb hook but I'm not sure about the pockets. I think it might distract from the corset style of the jacket. Let me know how you get on.❣️😄

    You look great in your two piece. Thank you for your view of mariflex thread, I am going to try it for my next stretch project. Do you have a zipper foot for your machine? I have a different brand of sewing machine and I have two types, one for invisible zips and one for standard zips, which allow me to sew really close to the zip teeth.

    • @Justine_made_it

    Hi Justine, I really enjoyed hearing about your learning journey through the 3 makes. I also learned something new about gingham! I can see why no. 3 is your favourite, but no.2 stands out to me because of the clever way you’ve used different scales of check and how that shows off the details of the construction 😊
