I second the motion for metallics as neutrals! Especially in shoes, I’ve worn gold and silver metallic ballet flats with everything. That pink tweed is gorgeous. You’ll just have to be brave and cut carefully⭐️ ❤️
Yes definitely! The right tone matches with so much stuff. The tweed is going to be one of the first things I sew in 2024, you're right I just need to take my time 😬
I loved your partywear video last year, looking forward to this year's! I'm just wrapping up a partywear project for a friend's wedding. I mashed up the wrap bodice of the By Hand London Hannah with the Frankie wrap skirt by Made Label. It's very very cute!
Lovely plans. Love the dress ideas. I have had this happen to me I machine washed a long sleeved top, and when I took it out half of one sleeve had ripped off!!! I have no idea why 😂 Great video, thanks for sharing ❤
Ahh no, sorry you had this happen too. I'm still heartbroken about it! my washing machine gets a beating with the amount of prewashing I do so maybe it was just throwing a tantrum?! 😂❤️
My neice is getting married in October and I've been looking for inspiration for something to make for me to wear after I've finished doing all the alterations on her dress and the bridesmaids... Im in Nashville so yes, it's going to be at a gorgeous barn venue and I have boots to wear and an option, long-sleeved wrap dress, if the weather is cool. However, that time of the year it could be 90 degrees F or 30 we just don't know. I also just happen to be knitting a gorgeous Brushed Alpaca Silk and Merino sweater with an open gauge that could be an option to go with a longer skirt.... I love your style and immediately thought of you. Any ideas for a warmer weather fall dress pattern or a skirt to go with cowboy boots and a wedding? lol sorry so long 💙
Thanks Gina, I enjoy you videos more than any other sewing ones as we have the same taste! I too go through net a porter for inspiration. Will update you on my current sewing projects. Please keep your videos coming!
I've heard a couple of great things about the McCall's shirt dress now, can't wait to see it! Thanks you, my top is the Alissah Threads Valdivia sweater and the fabric is a cable knit from higgs and higgs ☺️ I'll pop links in the description box for both ❤️
@@lindaboby6007 you're so welcome! The 2nd vlog still isn't up unfortunately, I haven't got round to sewing it our house has been full of sickness bugs and colds the last few weeks! Hopefully be back to normal soon so I can get back to it ❤️
I had a rayon dress rip itself up in the washing machine once. I was devastated, I spent a _lot_ of time getting that to fit perfectly. I decided it either got caught around the agitator, or got hopelessly tangled (which is so rare!) tore and got out of the tangle. I fully sympathise with your loss 😩
Ah this is absolutely devastating!! It sucks, especially when it's something you've spent so much time and effort creating 😫 such a shame, hopefully it doesn't happen again 🤞
I found your channel yesterday and I love it so I had a lovely two days watching all your vlogs. Usually I watch people’s fabric hauls and quite often I’m thinking why are you choosing that colour it’s completely off your colour season… you’re the first person I’ve watched and every colour suits you, no clue what colour season you are as you seem to be able to wear everything. Thank you for such a brilliant channel x
I'm so flattered, thank you!! I've been paying lots of attention to colours this year and feel like I know shades that suit me but still don't understand which colour season I am! One day I would love to do a professional consultation to find out. I think it would be so interesting to see if I'm getting it right. Thank you for watching ❤️
Love that coat pattern - I wouldn't mind having a go at that myself. Your tweed fabric is fabulous. There is someone on Minerva who has made a tweed skirt and jacket set. I think it is the same pattern as yours but can't find it to show you but it was just beautiful with sort of fringing on the pockets and skirt hem. I am really looking forward to seeing what you make with it and can imagine it would suit you so well.
Oh wow, I'll have a look through their site and see if I can find it! I'd love some more inspiration before I cut into the tweed. I love the idea of the fringing as well. I was thinking of adding something like that in gold to the jacket to make the gold threads in the tweed really stand out! ❤️
Thanks for sharing these. Some flare at stuff in there. As an aside, I LOVE the blue jumper you are wearing. Can you tell me what pattern it is? Thanks
Thank you for watching ☺️ For my jumper I used the Valdivia pattern by Alissah Threads. The sleeves are amazing!! The fabric is a cable knit from Higgs & Higgs which is so soft and incredible quality. I'll pop links for both in the description box now ☺️
Hiya! Yes this one is handmade, it's the Valdivia pattern by Alissah Threads. The fabric is a cable knit from Higgs & Higgs, it's so so soft! I'll pop link for both in the description box ☺️❤️
That Tweed is stunning ❤
It's beautiful isn't it?! The colours bring me so much joy 🥰
Thanks for sharing your autumn inspo!!🍁🤎🧡I now have 3 patterns you shared on my must buy list!😁That tweed fabric is gorgeous!!!!
Thank you so much for watching!! Ooh I'm curious, which 3 did you pick? ☺️
Oh! McCall's 7999, Simplicity 9679, and McCall's 7931❤❤😊
This was a great round up of patterns. But, I was totally distracted by what your wearing. That blue top is stunning. Do you mind sharing the pattern.
Of course! It's the Valdivia pattern by Alissah Threads in a Higgs & Higgs cable knit. I'll pop the links in the description box ☺️
Thanks for sharing I'm also wanting to make S9644 as well this month
Thank you for watching! Have fun sewing it, the pattern is gorgeous 😍
What a lovely vlog. I am now inspired by your patterns especially the little suit Jacket and skirt. xx

❤ THAT TWEED!!! I have that sewing pattern as well and I bought tweed and - same!- I’m terrified to cut it
Ah why it's a scary thought isn't it?! I think it's the texture, it looks quite tricky to work with. Hopefully we can pluck up the courage soon 🤞
I loved your partywear video last year, looking forward to this year's! I'm just wrapping up a partywear project for a friend's wedding. I mashed up the wrap bodice of the By Hand London Hannah with the Frankie wrap skirt by Made Label. It's very very cute!
It's coming tonight hopefully, all being well with technology that is 😂 ooh that sounds like a stunning combination ❤️
Great pattern choices. That tweed is beautiful, get it cut! It's only fabric and it needs wearing 😊
Absolutely! I need to stop being so precious about fabrics 😆❤️
I love your picks! Beyonce's recent IG pic makes me want to try M8307.
Thank you!! YES, that outfit is so cute. I love her all denim look recently too 😍
Lovely plans. Love the dress ideas. I have had this happen to me I machine washed a long sleeved top, and when I took it out half of one sleeve had ripped off!!! I have no idea why 😂
Great video, thanks for sharing ❤
Ahh no, sorry you had this happen too. I'm still heartbroken about it! my washing machine gets a beating with the amount of prewashing I do so maybe it was just throwing a tantrum?! 😂❤️
Party wear, yes 👍 Loved several patterns you reviewed, thank you 😊

Thank you so much for watching! Do you have any other recommendations for RTW places to look for inspiration? I need some new ideas I think! 🥰
Is that jersey a printed on fabric printer or handknitted
Love the tweed!! What pattern was the top you were wearing? I have made the Mcalls shirt dress was a great pattern too
