Your work outfit looks really smart and very comfy Tania. Those trousers might have taken a long time but are well worth your dedication.

[@justletmesew]

Thank you Annette, I hope they last me a long time. They are so comfortable, I'd like to make a thicker pair for the winter 😊

[@ErinSews]

Both pieces turned out so well! The red pop of color inside the trousers finishes them beautifully and is so much fun. I appreciate you suggesting other patterns, that’s a great idea to give viewers more options and info.

[@justletmesew]

Thanks Erin, I guess most garment styles have been around a while and are reworked and tweaked by different pattern companies, so there are usually options to suit what you want 😊

[@jensee1]

I always find trousers the hardest garment to make and look good. I find they so often need adjusting for better fit even if I've made the same pattern before. Yours look great on, I'd call that a definate win. Thanks for the video and your suggestions. Happy sewing.

[@justletmesew]

@@jensee1 They are hard, I'm with you there. Tops and dresses are much more forgiving if the fit isn't spot on but there's nowhere to hide with trousers! Thanks for watching 🌼

Hi Tanya, your work outfit looks fab. Thanks for sharing your plans 😊

[@justletmesew]

Thank you, and thanks for watching 🌼

[@ZeldaSews]

Hi Tanya. Your pants look amazing! I always worry that anything I make is gonna fall apart, and I'm gonna be stuck in an embarrassing situation.😅😅

[@justletmesew]

We're not alone then! Your makes are brilliant, they won't catch you out 🙂

[@ZeldaSews]

@justletmesew Awe thank you!

[@Avril-Steward]

Beautiful makes.

[@justletmesew]

Thank you 🙂

[@leannsews]

Love the look on you. I'm short so wide leg trousers don't do me any favours.

[@justletmesew]

Thanks Leann. What's your favourite trouser leg style?

[@leannsews]

@@justletmesew I guess straight leg or boot leg. I don't mind a bit wide, but if it's too wide, it makes me look like a box. 😄

[@justletmesew]

@@leannsews They can swamp us if we're not careful!

Another version of the blouse is the Style Arc Kennie. I have made it. The facing is a little fiddly but I love my Kennie.

[@justletmesew]

Ah yes, I've heard of the Kennie. How did you find Style Arc instructions?

[@makingwithmichelle]

@@justletmesew There are two sew alongs on UA-cam. I was find with all the instructions other than the facing/collar attachment. when I make it again I would draft a facing that goes all around the neck and button band.

[@justletmesew]

@@makingwithmichelle That's great there are sewalongs, so helpful 😊

[@sdcgren6301]

Hi is your video reversed? I noticed this already with not being able to read the numbers of the pattern?

[@justletmesew]

Hi, I usually put the pattern numbers on the screen and link them in the description too. Yes, they were coming up mirrored but my latest video should now be the right way round😊
