Wonderful to have you back! My condolences regarding your pretty red dress- such a bummer! Good to see you have recovered and are looking forward to new projects- I can imagine my colorful language upon discovering the unseaming!😁They say it’s all part of the learning process🙄😬
I'm still catching up (about halfway thru your Vlogmas). I'm so sorry to hear about your Christmas dress! Bummer! Good idea to keep it, thought - you never know if you'll feel up to fixing it later and it truly is a beautiful dress. I have to tell you, your Monroe looks great. It's chilly here in FL and it looks so cozy! That blouse is adorable! Your McCall's jumper - I did a review of it and noted a couple of things, but overall it's SO cute. And I'm really looking forward to seeing your jumpsuit; I always like that pattern on others but I'm still unsure about it on me. Here's to Fridays and catching up! I'm so glad to see you back!
Sitting on the sofa for 27 days sounds amazing 😀. I think the dress seam opening is every sewists' nightmare, but at least you weren't out. I didn't realise the kielo pattern was drafted for a jumpsuit - I'd be the same about the back. Glad to see you back
My first project of 2022 was to use a huge piece of black sweatshirting that has been in my stash FOREVER to make a two piece set! I made a Toaster Sweater 2 and a pair of Hudson Pants. I love them and they have been on constant rotation. I want the two piece set trend to stay forever. Especially in athleasure. Thanks for the video!
That sounds wonderful and perfect! I love the matching set trend too! It’s so easy and cozy! Bonus for a stashbusting project! You’re off to a great start this year! 👍
@@WanderingBobbin Yes! I actually decided to make a "Make Nine" of nine fabrics I want to sew from my stash. I really liked one of your videos where you found a fabric in your stash then went on a hunt through your patterns to find a good match for it. It inspired me to try something like that for this Make Nine. When I've tried to do the regular pattern Make Nine, I have found it hard to stay motivated to sew some of the patterns. I think it's just too long to plan a year out for me. I like to plan in three projects at a time now. It seems to work better for me.
Welcome back I've missed you. My goal for 2022 is as I think I commented before about becoming better at sewing knits. I bought myself a cover machine and I don't know why it intimidates me. It's supposed to be simpler than a serger and my serger is something I'm very comfortable with so I'm sure I can conquer this. Anyway I absolutely love the style arc patterns when I look at their pictures. I bought a style arc Issy top pattern back in 2016 and it came with an entire booklet of instructions and it is one of my favorite patterns. So in 2020 I bought the style arc Casey coat. That came with an index card of instructions. I managed to make the coat but I don't think the neckline and collar is quite right as I never was able to figure it out. When you talked about something happening when you got up to change out of your dress I thought you were going to say you sprained your ankle lol. How unfortunate that your seams came undone. That's almost as bad right? Anyway happy new year!
Well…to be honest….I did feel some physical pain when I saw it! But luckily it was just the shock of it all 😂 They style arc Kennie has the index card instructions. I made up the muslin last weekend and the collar was so tricky. Took me ages to figure out. There is also no double notch in the sleeve….where do you start/end your easestitch stitches?? Who knows, I have to google it this week. Anyways, I bet you’ll love your cover stitch. I’ve never used one, but if you can use a serger, I bet it will be a piece of cake! You can do it! 💪
Oh nooo that's soo traumatic! Yea I'd be put off for a bit too!😓 Your monroe shirt looks good! Well if you remember I have beef with style arc..measure your test square! If it's wrong they will blame your printer! Love the overalls pattern!❤
Thanks, April! Luckily, I had my pattern printed at PDF plotting...I cannot even deal with my printer anymore. It NEVER prints the test square correctly no matter what I do. ugh.
Good learning tool for the slippery fabric. Yes, it should have been safe not being exposed, but not without some sort of finishing. There are quite a few seam finishes besides serging, too. fitting is part of the sewists journey, it’s part and parcel of the learning to sew thing. Sewing without fitting is meaningless activity. And learning fit is just that…learned. Now, I can eye a pattern and think, that won’t cover my arm, that looks tight, because I’ve sewn so many. And I have broad shoulders too, didn’t realize you did until you showed us the back. (I don’t think like that unless someone says something!) Even moving the fold edge 1/2” away (I’d probably do 1”) away from the fold itself will give you extra fabric for the back. I steer away from puffy sleeves, too, I look like a middle aged linebacker. Keep up the good work, it’s normal to grieve for your carefully crafted dress, you put a lot of effort into it, and it was beautiful. Like some beautiful things like butterflies, it didn’t have a long life and died. A skirt perhaps can be born, with extra reinforced seams…….❤️
I love that way of looking at it! 🦋🦋🦋 And if absolutely nothing else, it will be a memorable project for sure! Who remembers the projects that go perfectly!?!?
Nice plans! And yes, you did have quite an adventure/break! but sounds like you've got your enthusiasm back! Excited to see your corduroy project - the last thing I finished up in December was corduroy Morgan jeans, and in January some corduroy Lander pants (first ones!) with a Roscoe blouse and Nikko top on the side. The solution to your dress issue will come to you in the shower, in bed staring at the ceiling, or behind the wheel of your car.... 😉
💯 some of my best ideas come to me in the shower and in the first few moments after I wake up! Those are all some great projects you've been doing! Do you like the Morgans or the Landers more?
@@WanderingBobbin I've made the Morgans at least 4 times (one in corduroy) with another cut out; the Landers I've only done once, but there will be more. They are totally different; the Landers have fewer pieces and steps with a higher rise, and the Morgans are more traditional jeans. Both of them fit me well, but I will probably reach for the Morgan first just because I know it better. 😁 It's nice to know I have a higher-waist option now!
So happy to see you back again, Katie! Love your videos! ❤️ My first project for 2022 was a Toaster sweater, absolute best choice for coming out of Christmas sewing burnout! Happy sewing!
I have also not been back to my machines yet! I went on vacation and then just had knee surgery today 🤕 I guess I couldn't wrap my head around it until after this. Hopefully back in my sewing room next week!
Looking forward to your Kennie blouse! No doubt it'll hold up MUCH better than the dress...how frustrating, especially after all the time and effort poured into it! We all have those projects, I think. I have the Kennie all ready to go for Feb (trying to pace my sewing so I don't burn through so much fabric this year!). The pinafore is cute too. I have that pattern but am yet to make it. Have fun getting back into the sewing groove!
I have to say I am definitely looking forward to making the Kennie out of COTTON! It will be such a breeze compared to that crepe back satin! What fabric are you going to make your Kennie out of?
@@WanderingBobbin Yes, cotton will be dreamy after that nightmare. I'm making my Kennie from plain black rayon challis, that I've starched the crap out of so it behaves. We'll see how it goes!
@@faithmathingsdal79 Ooo that sounds so good! I think the drape of the challis will be lovely with the Kennie! I just made my muslin out of cotton and my final version will also be cotton, but I was thinking it would be really nice in a drape-y fabric!
So happy to see you back! Sorry about your little red dress😢 it was so pretty. Sometimes I let things that puzzle me go for awhile then bingo a fix pops in my head! Looks like you have some lovely makes planned. Life has gotten in the way here but I have a sewing weekend planned. I think a Love Notions Arlington and the Itch to Stitch Foz top🤞
Definitely! I am going to let it marinate in the back of the closet…maybe I can transform it for next. Christmas 🎄 Love the Foz, well I haven’t made it, but the style is super cute! So is the Arlington!
Sorry about your dress. I had a similar issue with that type of fabric a few years ago and I haven't tried that fabric again which is fine since it's not really my thing. I'm more of a natural who loves wearing natural fibers mostly and I have no need for any type of dressier fabrics. I have not yet made a garment for the new year but I will shortly here. I did though make fringed pillow shams for my bed. Since we bought a house last year we have been focused more on the house and yard because I'm putting in my first garden this year and we are making the house our style inside and out. I am hoping to get to make my joggers this coming week. This current week my husband has been working from home because of Covid in his office but he should be able to return next week and I can focus on my sewing again. Glad to see you back.
I miss the days when my husband went to work and I could sew allll day long if my schedule allowed. He’s been working from home since the beginning of Covid. Making your new house a home is a worthy distraction from sewing, haha! I bet it is wonderful and having your own garden this summer will be amazing! 🪴 Whay jogger pattern are you planning on using?
Hey, I'm here with you. Here is where I am with fit..Inside the hem has a download Fit guide. It's, like 5 dollars. Girl, I have been able to understand the amount of ease in the pattern at my size. What "I" like for ease in a top, and I have sized down on a LOT. I hope that helps. It sure has me!!! PS. I heard Style Arc has a very...well instructions assume you are intermediate sewist. Just what I've heard
Oh that sounds like a great resource! I’ll check it out! I was thinking I should actually do some research and buy a fitting book or two soon. I have been just doing tons of googling for info, but I love books. Yup, that’s what I’ve heard about style arc too….🤞
Katie! That's tragic. It is such a beautiful dress and it looks stunning on you. I understand why you wouldn't want to be in the sewing room for a while but happy you're back and have great plans.
Tragic is the right word for it! 😭 But like I said, 2021 problems…onwards and upwards! Thanks for watching! I am happy to be back and ready to sew again!
Hi there! Just came across your channel and enjoyed this video. I hear you on fitting issues. I've been sewing for quite a while and still don't feel like I have a firm handle on how/when/what to make fitting adjustments. Almost always throw together a quick muslin first, maybe one day I won't need to do that :) Looking forward to seeing more of your videos. Cheers! ~Angela
Hi Angela! Thank you so much for watching! I am also hoping to not have to make muslins anymore someday! that’s probably not realistic, haha, but it would be amazing to know what adjustments to make right off the bat! I guess it will come with time and experience 🤞
So happy to see you back Katie! That's such a bummer about your beautiful red dress 😫 I have the Style Arc Kennie on my short term to do list - I LOVE that pattern!
Hey Michelle! 😀 I am so excited to see how the Kennie comes out! The more I think about it, the more I love that collar! I hope it suits me…I haven’t really even tried on anything with a collar that big before 🙈
I made my first Jarrah and then decided to take my sewing room apart, clean my machines, do a thorough de clutter/destash for donating, and the first thing I am going to do when I get things back together is the Nikko top. Happy new year to you!
Great to see you back! I took a short break after the holiday from sewing too. I have to take a break from sewing every so often and I find I come back refreshed and inspired. Looking forward to seeing your makes for 2022!
So glad for your first 2022 vlog!! I am working on the Foz Sew Along with TomKat Stitchery and also the Jalie Emilie #sewtogether2022. Looking forward to a sew along with you sometime this year!
Next time, use linking shears. It will be enough to mitigate shredding and because it's a zig zag line and not a straight line, it tricks the eye if there is anything shadowing through BTW I am currently wearing the Monroe...
Hi Katie! Happy New Year and nice to see you! Would you tell me if your charcoal corduroy leans to the slate/blue part of the color wheel, please? Thank you!
Hi Alecia! It definitely leans blue. Almost navy blue. I actually had to email Stylemaker to make sure they didn’t accidentally send me the navy blue color because it was so much more blue than gray looking when I got it. Hope that helps!
Katie, thank you so much! That’s exactly the color I want and so appreciate your response. When I buy fabric online, I’m trying to see the color of the fabric as it is and not as I want it to be…without waiting for a sample. I hope you’re happy with it and I can’t wait to see your pinafore! Thanks again!!! 🤗
@@aleciacope3503 Your welcome 😊 Buying fabric online is so tricky when it comes to color! It’s so hard to tell. Even though they assured me they sent the gray, I still wonder sometimes, haha. Doesn’t matter tho, I think the pinafore will be really cute no matter what the official color is 😂
I think the arms are a tad short on me. That may be because the arms were tight overall causing them to ride up a bit though. Hope that helps! Thanks for watching!
I live in an apartment with a loft. You are seeing the laundry closet, bathroom, a closet, and the front door! There is a short tour in my Q and A video from December, if you’d like to see it from another angle! 😊

I am sorry about your dress. I finish my seams with a zip zag stitch or overcasting stitch. Some people will do a French seam to finish the seams.
Thanks, Vanessa. It was so disheartening. I think a simple zig zag might have done the trick...next time!
