I have twin granddaughters with March birthdays and made them each a quilt.
Thanks you..
All the way through this video I just couldn't take my eyes of your pretty 🌹dress, you did a wonderful job with it and I loved the frilled hem. Re your Easter dress, you can imagine the hairs on the back of my neck sticking up when you said lining 😂😂. A slip is SO much easier! Cannot wait to see you tomorrow ❤❤❤💃🏻🎉 xx
Hope your Easter is special❤❤
Love your dress! Fits you so well.
Happy Resurrection Day…He is risen indeed. Thank you for sharing all your sewing tips and for doing this channel!
You are so welcome!
Happy Friday! Happy good Friday and praise the Lord, happy Resurrection Day. ✝️
Same to you!
I love the sheet dress! Thank you for sharing.
Thanks!
The dress came out great! So pretty! Happy Easter!
Happy Easter God Bless love your channel. . the dress your are wearing is just adorable
Polyester is a trickster fabric. Sometimes it tries to fool you by feeling so nice when you touch it in the store and misbehaving later. I love plan B dress!
Very pretty dress so spring 😊😊Happy Easter 😊
Happy Easter Jen! Thank you for sharing your beautiful makes and your positivity.
Higher thread count or percale sheets are very tightly woven which is why you need a very sharp needle… something learned in quilting when using bedsheets for backing. ❤
Great point!
The lisette sheet dress is darling on you. You are going to look fabulous on Sunday in either dress. My son and my granddaughter celebrate a birthday on the 18th. Have a wonderful weekend.
Yes, a sheet can be an adorable dress! And yes, I know someone with a March birthday - me, yesterday, but no, didn't make anything for myself - not yet, anyway. He is risen indeed!
Happy birthday to you! 🎉
@@sewgirl1247 thanks 😄!
You are adorable in your Lisette dress! I cant wait to see that Easter dress on you. That color is going to be so flattering! I love how you put your fabric in time out. NO NAUGHTY FABRIC ALLOWED! Have a fantastic Easter and will see you soon!!!❤❤ love you!
Can't wait!
Hello, Jen! Happy Easter😊 the dress you made out of a sheet is really pretty! Thanks for the heads up on the issues with pattern. I love dresses but I don’t make many. I just finished my Sidney Dress today; it will be my Easter dress.
I’ve been studying scripture more and more. Just makes me feel so good to read and study. May the peace of our risen Lord be with you❤️
Super cute dress! Happy Easter!
Thank you! You too!
Happy Easter and yes 2 family birthdays in March.
I've been playing catch-up, watching a bunch of your videos. What a pleasure! Trusting that your Resurrection Sunday was lovely and blessed for you and yours. I'm with you, no better celebration day for those of us walking with our Lord Jesus!
Your yellow dress is darling, perfect for Spring time and I love the blue maxi you showed - simply stunning!! I wonder which you wore.🤗
Happy belated birthday to your daughter. My youngest brother is a March baby whose birthday fell on Easter Sunday this year, kind of special as he is music worship leader at their church! Now that we're living in Miamisburg, we don't see him often being four and a half hours away. Same goes for my middle brother (I'm oldest), also located in N.E. Ohio.
Love the cute dress you're wearing, and even more so since it's done from a sheet! Need to get busy myself with a cute sheet Hubby bought for me for a summer dress! Sadly between headaches, winter sickness and now recovering from pulling my back - oi! I just want to get to do normal stuff again!!
Need to bring this book length comment to an end, so 🤗🤗🤗to you!💖
Happy Easter to you and yours Jen ❤🎉
My birthday is in March and I changed decades this year! My 4th grandson was born the day before my birthday (3/25) which was also my grandmother’s birthday.
Instead of buying distilled water I have been heating my tap water to boiling on the stove. As soon as it hits boiling I turn it off and place a lid on it and wait for it to cool. The initial steaming before boiling is suppose to remove contaminates and additives. once it's cooled I add it to my bottle. So far so good but I do need to do a vinegar cleaning like I do with my coffee maker.
The only birthday this month in my family is a sweet niece. I made her a card and sent it. I don’t think you can put photos in a comment or maybe I just don’t know how or I’d slip in a picture. Love the sheet dress, that’s a cute pattern. Looking forward to see the Easter dress modeled. Happy Resurrection Day. So thankful He arose.
I looove that dress!!❤ I also love making things with sheets too😍 yes chiffon is a beast!
I only use spring water. I got an oliso in 2020 and that's what it recommended.
I love that bible quote!
My favorite is Roman's 8:31 If God is for us, who can be against us ❤
March is a big birthday month for many in my family ~ including me!, as well as a couple of friends. I found myself shaking my head "yes, good idea/fix to wear a slip with your Easter dress". Hope you can get it finished in time to wear it on Sunday....if not both the blue dress you showed a photo off and the dress you are wearing would be lovely. AND....wow, what fun to hear you call my name as the winner of Nancy Zieman's book! Thank you so much Jen! I've sent you an email. ~ Gail
Happy Birthday Sew Girl❤!
Thank you, was the big 70 this year!
❤ your work is fatastic and expertise 🎉 happy birthday for your relative 🎉
Thank you so much 😀
Hello Jen! Yes, to a march bday,,, me too,,,,today, Friday the 29 th is my b day too but I’m old!!! lol. I’m getting ready for total knee replacement Tuesday. Say a prayer if you will. I have kept several of my hard cover Nancy Zeiman sewing books. They are full of such great sewing info. Take care and have a blessed Easter. Nancy from In who saw you back in Joann’s near the UTC mall.
Ps. My Fla daughter will be here with me , helping in my recoup time etc, on April 1. Just a short flight here and on your all time fav airlines,,, NOT!!! lol. So easy for her but seems more n more all airlines are becoming unsafe,,,seems more n more unsafe,,,lately!!!
Wish you had a wonderful Good Friday. Hope you have an awesome Resurrection Day. He is risen indeed ✝️
Hope you have a very blessed, Happy Easter!
Same to you!
Happy Easter! Hope you and your family enjoy. It’s my favorite time of year. 👗👒👡🐰🐥🐞💐🌺🌼🌸. Don’t like the sneezes and watery eyes. But I’ll still take it. Arizona is filled with pollen!!! Beware! Thank you for everything! 🌵🤠😎😘
Ugh pollen - it's awful! At least you have saline spray and antihistimine. What would we do without those?
Just love your Plan B dress.
Oh thank you!
My granddaughter was 30 last weekend.. No I do not make her anything anymore.. she has a very definite style. Could you wear your Lisette dress as your Easter dress...its really cute Happy Easter
Great idea!!
Hi Jen! My birthday was on 3/28 and yes I made myself some t shirts!!! 😁Your makes are beautiful as ever! I like the Plan B dress too, I wonder what you ended up wearing?💓-Mary
Good for you, you deserved those shirts! Happy birthday! And I wore something completely different, a dress I'd had in my closet for a couple of years that's made from a microfiber sheet. Crazy - but it just felt right and ended up being perfect.
Happy Easter, love that dress your wearing it's really cute. are you making your daughter's wedding dress? it's beautiful. Yes, we have many March birthdays, me (I turned 70 and can't believe I'm this old) my Neice who turned 48, my aunt who turned 77 (my mom and grandma were having babies at the same time my sister is 75), my middle grandson who turned 17 and my nephew who turned 52.
Happy birthday all around!
Hi Jen, your dress is beautiful! I love the Easter alternative too. I wanted to ask: I've finally decided to start a UA-cam channel... is anyone able to post with the FridaySews hashtag? I wasn't sure if it was by invitation so I thought I'd check first. Thanks so much for starting it, and all the wonderful channels I have found to watch as a result. Also, I have some home dec fabric I never used... and was just thinking I should make some trousers from it, maybe I finally will!
Yes of course!
Yes you can
Oh yes. Definitely.
Happy birthday to your daughter & Happy Easter! 😊
My beloved granddaughter turned sweet 16 on March 20. I did not make her anything, but drove three hours from my home to hers so I could join the celebration in person. Happy Resurrection Sunday!
That is awesome!
Jen quick question?? 😊 do you have a sew along for your bowl cozy’s
Nope - although I did film one and never got it edited. I tried, too many mistakes and starting over. But I can try again.
We know him as Jesus Christ the gospel of salvation the was giving to apostle Paul the apostle of the gentiles. With Corianthians 1 15 verse 1 thru 4 for us gentile.
Happy Easter Jen love the sheet dress beautiful
Thanks so much
