I’m wearing and Esti top @TillyButtons and some shorts from @helpersew9254

    Ooohhh Beachy Head …. That brings back memories. I am Austrian and been in Eastbourne twice living with a lovely family in my teenage years. I am 47 now.. I did not realize that you are at home in this area. I think we took a boat ride back then to see the cliff. ❤️❤️

    Cara! It worked! I put in a request to Mother Nature to send you some sun and heat! Lol. Your top with both the pant and shorts makes 2 wonderful easy, breezy outfits! Thank you for taking us along today on your bike ride. Beautiful countryside and it was nice meeting Daisy, 😉. BTW, as you suggested, I have uploaded my recent Maison Fauve Cuba Libre dress, the Salto Top, the Cicalleda Top and my 3 Grenadine skirts to Instagram! I'm going to visit my sisters in Germany in September, so I'm making more pants, Maison Fauve dresses, and a couple of their shorts patterns. Also sewed a dress from Love Notions for a friend and liked it so much I might make one for myself as well. I'm so excited to see what you are doing with Maison Fauve!!!! I bought some of their gorgeous fabrics on sale and plan on a few more Grenadine skirts too. Phew. Thanks for the encouragement! Have a wonderful week.🌾🌼🌿🐮

    All the makes are lovely! @RipperSeams made the set with the Anti top for her contribution to the Busy Bee Challenge 2024! She also had a problem with the neckline when the neck tie was drawn up. I wonder if the fabric needs to be really soft so that the neckline falls better?

      It’s a mystery to me as I’ve just made it in a linen viscose and it does the same thing, I still love it though, lovely to hear from you

  • @annielovesvintage
    @annielovesvintage 5 днів тому

    I also think if you are buying fabric especially it’s sometimes worth measuring the pattern pieces first. I cut a Summer in New York Dress out of 1.4m of fabric when the pattern said I needed 3m. Mainly because I got two skirt pieces side by side, but I also think pattern companies really over estimate the amount of fabric you need.

    @nicky-Sewandsnip 9 днів тому

    That red dress is a great colour on you and a nice style,bra straps don’t really notice and who cares as long as you’re comfortable! I quite often use bikini tops under my strappy dresses as the straps are more interesting! Black dress is great on you too. I’ve seen others having problems with the fall of the Swim Style top with the neck band worn, I think you need to really push the top of the v neck down when you have it on but I suppose it will work its way up again unless it’s stitched and if you do that it looses the versatility 😂

    Beautiful dresses! I’m planning to take a look at both pattern companies. I made the Andi top and love the style too. I think the match up with trousers is a great idea. Took me a few tries to get the facings sewn together correctly so I could match them up to the exterior! My fabric was a linen type remnant so easy to top stitch the neck and shoulders so the facings didn’t peek out. Thank you for a content filled video! Commenting from US/Florida.

    Cara, I so look forward to your Sunday videos so I can 'chat' with you. I hope all is well in your world with everyone healthy and home again. The first adorable dress you made by the Russian pattern company reminds me so much of the new Notches Kaiko Top & Dress that was featured on this morning's The Fold Line. It looks lovely and breezy on you. The Lexi dress isn't one I've come across before but it is such a flattering dress. Maybe you can make another one out of a viscose jersey for your trip. Very breathable. I just love viscose jersey. On Friday I cut out my first Saguaro Set pattern and can't wait to have some flowy pants myself. Your Grenadine skirt looks great! I also made my first one as a wearable toile in a deep purple jacquard. Hmm then I think I went a little crazy designing the next 2. First a denim with cherries on it - and wait for it - instead of piping I put in a zipper! The 3rd one is out of a peach gaberdine stretch suiting and on the bottom panel I added a fun faux leather panel with little shapes hanging off of it. That was a challenge and the panel is quit delicate. But it was also peach colored so I just went for it. I didn't include the lining in any of mine either. Lol, who has time for linings in skirts I will wear in the summer! I also made another Salto shirt in red viscose linen to go with the cherry skirt. And I've moved on the my first Cicadella blouse for my purple skirt. I'll never catch up to your sewing stardom standards, but I am loving all of these new outfits. Thanks Cara for always providing so much inspiration and fun.

      Oh my goodness Rita that ll sounds absolutely amazing! Please put them on your instagram account when you get a moment. I hope you and your husband are well and enjoyed your holiday. Can’t wait for mine. At one point this week the consultant said I was going for surgery after my holiday, then he rang and said they’d do another biopsy before deciding, I’m really well, will know soon what the next steps are, have a lovely week, your sewing sounds amazing

    Ripper seams also had the same issue with that neck tie. So I think it is a pattern issue. It amazes me how prolific you are. I have so many ideas floating around in my head, I think I need to write them down and tick them off as I do them.

      Ah that’s interesting to hear about ripper seams, thank you. It’s bonkers how much I sew, but I just find myself doing it, it helps me relax

    Wow, wow, wow, that is a vlog of inspiration to those of us watching you that think “I can’t wear that because …”. I now have some sewing to do! Time to let some of those silly hangups go and get comfortable in the summer heat. I loved all of your makes and you looked amazing in all of them. Thank you! I’m going to try them all!
