  • Is this a 'I see it, I want it' installation??? It might be! I needed a little black dress and had 24h to do it, so it was the perfect opportunity to try my hand at a very expensive Liberty silk print.
    I hope you like the outcome!

    The amazing thing about being able to design and sewing our own clothing is catering to unique body shapes, even though I've struggled so hard lately to like anything on myself... I'm working on that this summer, trying to motivate myself, fix my health, and feel like I'm taking care of myself instead of me binge eating and not caring... But I think being able to start making things for my body no matter the size it's at right now can help me navigate those feelings.. Anyway, love seeing you make something for yourself and you do an amazing job as per usual!! :)

      Thanks so much Stephanie for this sincere comment! I love that you're looking out for yourself and start your self-care journey. It's so important to be healthy, but it's also what makes us feel good! I also want to take more care of myself - as you might know, running a YT channel can be hard work and it's easy to forget how important it is to take care of our bodies. I wish you the best of luck with your journey xx

    Such a perfect use of that gorgeous fabric.
    I gave the Liberty sale a miss because I'd just gotten back from traveling and I'd bought a fair bit of fabric while I was away, but I have regretted it ever since 😄

    Whenever a vacay or trip rolls around, I'm exactly like you and want to make something! And that's when I realize I have some serious gaps to fill in my closet. Your dress turned out STUNNING! I always love Reformations style, but feel like the quality isn't worth the price so it's super cool you made your own version!

    I have a Bernina and rarely do the off brand feet fit. I’m pretty thrifty and paying 25$ and up per foot is not feasible. I bought a set of feet and I realized I could modify the opening with a metal drill bit and file. Now I have inexpensive feet for my machine. Great self drafted dress!

    Hey, I just discovered your channel and I LOVE this “I see it, I want it” series. You’re an inspiration for me (I only just started sewing this January). Question for you! Do you use a serger? If not, how do you normally finish your seams?

    • @ThrillsandStitches
      @ThrillsandStitches  Рік тому +1

      Thank you so much ☺️ I do use a serger! It's a fab addition to your tools if you want to expand, and I use it on most projects. I didn't use it here because my needles were dull and I wanted to make sure I don' ruin the silk 😬 Since I lined this dress, serging the sides wasn't necessary ☺️

      @ThrillsandStitches  Рік тому +1

      I have a Brother Innovis sewing machine and a Brother Lock 2104D serger, both bought at the same time. I love them both! At this point, I would probably go for a model above the Innovis, but it is a great, reliable machine that does everything it needs to do, including button holes :)
