All of your garments are always so pretty.❤
@@sheryllstarr7115 Thank you 🫠
How fun is that pink vest! Simplicity 1499 is not that exciting to look at, until you show us how it's done ❤! Now that's exciting!😊
@janisdressler7380 😊 I know! You really have to see it. The fabric choice is so important
@donnabrown0130 I have been looking at videos and reviews about sewing with faux fur, it's a challenge! Bravo.
I love this collection! I can definitely relate to having the itch to sew. It is so hard to step away or slow down. I find myself gravitating back every time!
@jessikaj.create Yes! I believe it's the joy one has in what they do. Passion is such a strong desire! Thank you for watching 🫠. I watch & enjoy your channel also
My question for you, where do you find the time to finish so many pieces so quickly???? I'm interrupted frequently and then can't get back in the rhythm of the project.
I love the garment, pretty color.
@@latonyamsnead9539 Thank you!
Hi Donna that’s a nice set to make. I may join you in February
@@gladysscott526 Wow! That would be great. Keep me posted 🥰
Hi Donna, your dress is so nice and the Ankara version is beautiful too. I really like your blue and tan color scheme for your upcoming collection. I do have a few questions for you. I was just wondering what is your favorite fabric to work with? Do you prefer knits or wovens? And who taught you to sew or are you self taught? And lastly how long have you been sewing? You sew so well and you are so good at choosing fabrics for your collections.
You are so sweet! So glad I found your channel!
Hello my friend, I'm so glad I found your channel 😊.
@@latonyamsnead9539 Hello🫠. Welcome. I'm glad to have you here
@@ShelbyEwalt Welcome! Thank you so much for watching🫠
Please accept my subscription to your channel
Love your garments! Thanks 🙏 so very much for sharing!❤️❤️❤️
@@deidrabenson361 Thank you! I love to share with this sewing community.
Do you do adjustment to the patterns before they are made , If so can you will you show doing adjustment
@victoriagreen1931 I don't do adjustments often, but yes I do. I will certainly show it soon. Thank you
Oh I definitely see you as a sewing expert! I would love to ask you sewing questions! Your garments always look very professionally made!
@@patriciaallen3046 Thank you so much🥰. Ask away... I'll be pulling the questions from the comments in this video
I can’t wait to see the finished collection! Love the color scheme
@helenfillmore3063 Thank you so much for watching. Blue & tan is so basic. But it's a classic combination. I love it!
You inspire me so much with your collections! I love the colors you pair together 🤎
@@Sewcially.Awkward Thank you! I love a good collection 😉
I love that collection and I enjoy your videos s much. Thank you
Thank you so much! I think it will be a good basic group.
That blue dress is so pretty. I can’t wait to see your collection. Happy sewing 2025! I have to tell you, I’ve been sewing for many years. However, I have never made pants, well almost. Home economics teacher had us fitting & sewing a pair. Mine turned out terrible, I think it scarred me for life. :)
Thank you. Try making S8056- the amazing fit pattern. It works well for me. With any pants pattern, I have to shorten the crotch about 1/2 inch. Once I tried it, I use it for the majority of my pants. But I definitely can relate to what you're saying🫠
Thanks for sharing. I always enjoy your videos.
@@lindarogers4188 Thank you so much! I appreciate you watching 🤗
You are so talented.love that outfit you have on.
Thank you so much!
I’m starting my first sewing livestreams this year, as far as equipment recommendations, topics, as well as not being overwhelmed with timelines, what would you share about for “seasoned” sewists? 🎉
You are absolutely right... deadlines & timeliness can get stressful. I do like to plan out what I'm doing. I don't like to be all over the place. I think consistency is very important. This community is very supportive. But we all know that everything is not for everyone and that's okay. Think about what irritates you when you're watching & then be sure not to do 'it' in your video content😅. I've been doing this now for almost 2 years. I do it for joy & pleasure. However, I do like the challenge some of these patterns/designs present. Taking breaks & rest periods are necessary. Don't stress out. What's very important is the quality of your videos. I am not good with technology. I didn't have any special equipment or lighting, etc. I'm just starting to invest the proper time in getting it right. As I said, this is a great supportive community. Let people see the good & bad. As a 'seasoned sewist', use your skills as teaching moments whenever you can. We all started out as beginners. Happy sewing ❤
I made that dress because of your video. I love it. ❤❤❤
@@dianagalloway9039 Awesome!!!!
Found your channel when browsing for 9610 makes and I love yours! Wearing that crop top as a little jacket is brilliant. Thank you for showing your adaptation for the waist band. You look great in all of your sewing makes and I enjoyed hearing you talk about them!
@janisdressler7380 I'm so glad you found the channel! I appreciate you watching. 9610 is definitely one of my fav 'fun' makes🫠
Love the garments, especially the vest!
@@carri9072 Thank you so much!
I can’t find the finished garment measurements for the jacket. They only list the back length. Do you recall where the rest of them are
The denim skirt is 🔥
@@SewciopathWithScissors Thanks! I like it too🫠
These garments are all so very pretty and I love the fabric choices❤❤❤. Thanks for sharing, Donna😊
@@brendajefferson5984 Hello. Thank you so much. I love sharing with this community
I love the grey one the most
@aliciaedwards8735 I think I do too😊. Thank you!
Cute furry vest! You did a fantastic job on those skirts! I am so impressed that you did those without a pattern! I especially love the black crepe. I'm seeing that one with a beautiful satin blouse, and a wide black belt, and black pumps. Classy!
@@janegilson1886 Thank you! I love this skirt. Great suggestion.... I definitely love a satin blouse🫠
Love it all you need to make a denim vest for the denim tuxedo skirt that would be perfect! God bless!
@@silverfox70 Hello. Thank you. That would be nice
Love watching Janelle . The best fabric looks so soft and cozy. Everything looks great. Awesome video!
@@sewchidesigns4 Yes, she's very inspiring. Thank you so much🫠
Hi Donna! Happy New Year🎉 The vest is very pretty. I love your pleated skirts! They are very figure flattering and versatile. I have a similar body shape to you. I want to sew up a few of those! Thank you for the inspiration!
@@lidabard2121 Thank you so much The skirt has a very comfortable fit. Enjoy making it!
Hi Donna happy new year 🎆 I love the vest and skirts what was the pattern for the skirt?
@gladysscott526 I didn't use a pattern. After I watched the Rosery Apparel video, I cut my own. Once you watch the video, you'll see why. The video link is in the description . Happy New Year!
Beautiful, I have that pattern ready to make Ty for your video. It’s so beautiful 😍 😊
@@stephaniecruz8260 Thank you. That's #4 for me😅
I have been watching Janelle for years on Rosery Apparel! She’s great! Your skirts are so cute! 🥰
@@RunningWithScissors-th8jo Yes, she's really good. Thank you!
Donna you did a beautiful job with this vest! I love it!❤
@ZeldaSews Thank you. I thought of you when I was making the skirt. I think you would like it.
I have S1499 but I still have not sewed it up yet! I've had the pattern for many years. Your vest is STUNNING! Wow! Great job with the lining. The snap is beautiful. GREAT skirts too!
@@sewlovelywithgrace Hi Grace! Thank you. S1499 is a great outerwear vest. I enjoy my quilted fabric ones. And now this!
Looks like fun!
@@4016kiwi Yes!
OOH that flapper dress/fabric combo is my favorite! All good pairings. And M7999 goes without saying. Can't wait to see your animal print duster. 🥰
@@sewlovelywithgrace Thank you! I'm ready to get started🫠
These are going to be amazing. That pink knit is 🔥
@@maxinekershaw9756 Thank you so much. The challenge is a little exciting. I'm going to need patience because I want to sew them all....now😉
@ honestly..I thought to myself…she about to make all these in 2 weeks🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'm so excited that you've chosen to participate Donna!!!!
@@unsewcial I'm happy to be a part of the challenge 😊
Hi Donna. That purple charmeuse fabric looks like the fabric you sent me. Very pretty.❤
@ZeldaSews Hi. It's the same but from different stores. I'm waiting to see you make some pj's 😅
Yay Donna! I'm playing fabric roulette along with Carole's (from So Carole) fabric wheel of fate which are the same concepts!
What a fun challenge Donna!
Hi Cathy! Yes it is
Thank you for sharing.
@@okirp3613 Thank you so much. I appreciate you watching 🫠
Looking forward to seeing the maroon faux leather skirt made up, and also the bronze flapper outfit!!!
@@janegilson1886 You know I want to make that flapper style dress. I will be patient 😅
This will be fun! I’m looking forward to seeing your makes!! 🥰👍
@@RunningWithScissors-th8jo And yours as well! We'll have plenty to watch between the two challenges 🫠
