    My girlfriend has asked me to make her a dress for a film award ceremony and your page is the only page I've settled on. I watched your video on how to create a bodice and it was so detailed and simple. I scoured the internet and thought about starting my own page because shit was so confusing, then I found your page. Looks like you've already filled that gap. We may be competitors in the future... I love your work and energy. Now, if you'll excuse me, I've got part 2 to watch.

    I’m destashing also. I have too much fabric. 🤦‍♀ I’m making skirts and dresses. I went to buy some interfacing and walked out with more fabric, patterns, zippers, thread and … interfacing. 😂 Thank goodness I didn’t forget the 1 thing I went there for. Then I had to order buttons. 🫢🫣🙄 I’m going to have some nice items made when I’m done though. 👍🥰 Love your video, can’t wait to see everything you do, and I have 2 of your patterns on the cutting table also - with some of my fabric stash. ❤❤

    Love how it turned out! These videos are some of my favorite. Curious about the shirred back. With the facing does it loose most of that ease from the elasticity (except at the waistline), like is it mostly for the look? If you wanted to keep it all stretchy, what other ways could you do the back facing?

    • @misss7777
      @misss7777 Місяць тому

      To me it looks like the facing ends at the shirred back on both sides in the video. That's also how I would do it if someone asked me how to keep it functional.

    • @ThrillsandStitches
      @ThrillsandStitches  Місяць тому +1

      The facing spans across the shirred back piece - that keeps the neckline together, but it still gives more flexibility from the neckline down, so the belly area has more room to move/grow/shrink, which is quite nice! You could definitely stop the facing before the last back panel, that would make it even more comfy.

  • @LRWdesign
    @LRWdesign Місяць тому +1

    On the striped sundress, it looks more like narrow elastic channels instead of shirring. Think about it some more. It’s the distance between that makes me think that.

    I wonderabout the zipper...
    Why you need a zipper if you sheered the back?

    • @ThrillsandStitches
      @ThrillsandStitches  27 днів тому +1

      It’s an additional measure to make it more comfortable and forgiving, it also helps keep the fit tight :)
