  • Hello! Hope you're enjoying your day so far! In this vlog, I spent the day sewing a new dress using a Japanese dress pattern! I've only had experience with English patterns so it was a very interesting experience learning and comparing the differences! I used the pattern as a base and altered the design and added side pockets as well. In the end I was very happy with the results! It was very comfy! I spent the remaining of the day crocheting granny squares for my blanket that I started a few months ago. I took a break from it during the summer months but now I need to finish it before it gets cold! Hopefully I will finish soon! If you like to sew, make clothes, and crochet at home, I hope you will like this video!

    Very professional sewing. I love pockets - they make my housework easier because i can stash things in them as I'm cleaning & picking up. The dress would be a good maternity dress - young girks always wear tight fitting clothes when they get pregnant but when I had my babies, we always wore baggy dresses. Anyway - its a great all-around dress - I love it❤ - thanks for sharing

    Hallo from 🇩🇪for the next time to sew a nice dress….it will be easier to copy the pattern to the interface, cut the interface exactly and press it on the fabric. Now you can cut the fabric with the interface and so the fabric don‘t loose the shape. Sometime it can happend so…😉

I always enjoy your video’s and I get *SO EXCITED* when a new one pops up!😊 I’m doing an EPP 1 inch hexagon guilt now, just finished a king sized one. I love the way you do your small EPP projects and you’ve inspired me to do some of these! Thanks for sharing this content that I love so much. Hugz, Tree (from Missouri)

    Hi Kiko, I love how the dress turned out! It was nice to see you modeling it. 😊 I am working on a crochet Granny Square Afghan as well and I’m just starting to block mine. I wish I had a bigger board like yours. I think I will only be able to do a couple at a time. Once they’ve dried can’t you take them off? This is the first time I’ve blocked squares. I always look forward to Saturday mornings for your new videos. ❤

      @camillewinnie27 5 місяців тому

      @@kikosabi I’ve been wondering the same thing. Will they stay in shape after? I think if you wet them and let them dry on the board, they’re supposed to stay in the same shape they dried in. Maybe that only works with pure wool.
