    Hi Everyone and Welcome Back to My Bucolic Life Channel. Meet my new sewing project.
    I needed some new PJ's so here we go! The pattern calls for knit and I did use one, but it was pretty lightweight and ill behaved... as they are. The pattern instructions show sewing the project with a straight stitch machine, so I went along with that just to show that it is possible, but please, feel free to use sergers and other stitches. It's your project :) And you can meet my new little dog Misty!
    Hope you like it!
    ~Marie

    They’re nice fancy pancy pyjamas. They’re very pretty.
    That was a good solution with the tricot tape for the binding. Those ultra lightweight knits are horrible to sew 😩
    I hope your little rescue girl settles in well. Your black one doesn’t seem to mind her existence. That makes life a little easier.

    You could wear those pjsi the garden, they are lovely. Rose is a pretty machine. I think you are brave to use knits. Love the new puppy. We call them puppy farms here. Glad you have saved her, she will love her new home. ❤

    Gutterman have introduced a new thread called Maraflex which can be used with a normal sewing stitch on stretch fabrics. This thread has a slight elastic component added. No need to use a zigzag stitch just use your normal stitch. Game changer. 😊

    I just found your channel today and I am so excited. I have already learned so much by watching. Thank you. I also have a very high waist which was why I began sewing. I agree, store bought pants are a nightmare for me as well. I’m looking forward to watching your channel, learning and getting to know you. ❤

    We all need those pjs. Look so comfortable and bright. I know a lot of sewers hate knits but I love them. I use a rotary cutter and serger when sewing with that type of fabric. I love how soft it feels and no ironing. 😂

    I hate that knit, especially if it's DBP or SBP. I prefer wovens too. Love the video, it shows us that someone who is as accomplished as you has trouble with some fabrics. I think that pattern would make a cute daytime outfit. Cute little puppy.

    Interesting pattern with “watch video!” That’s fine if you’re able to access the Internet (which I typically can), but what are you supposed to do if you cannot?😳😵‍💫 One wonders these things. 😂 Cute pajamas. Adorable dog. Thanks for sharing your project.

    I love the pattern, it turned out so cute. The new doggie is a sweetheart. I might do that pattern in a lounge set but I’m a nightgown lady. I don’t like waistbands when I am sleeping…long gowns are like sleeping nude but not…lol

    • @mybucoliclife

    I was at Joann's on Thursday and bought this pattern thinking it was for a blouse! I didn't know they were pj's until I saw your video. I guess I can still make a blouse out of it and probably will make pj's because I loved how yours turned out. Love your new rescue puppy, so adorable!

    Thinking that is probably a liverpool knit. I had bought some from fabric mart fabrics but haven't made anything with it yet. I could tell it would be trouble. I don't need any trouble in my life right now. Love your puppy. She seems so sweet. Enjoy!

    I tune in to see the animals at the beginning. Love the new baby. Looks a lot like my Maltese poodle mix that I also got from a puppy mill. I thought the top nice enough to wear with street pants anytime. I was glad to see you use a Teflon sheet to attach the interfacing. They are great for applique too. And Rose is beautiful! Take care; and you can expect me to continue watching.

    Now you know why that fabric was in the bargain bin- no one wants to work with it. You did a fantastic job as ever. Ah Misty- sweet little girl. She doesn’t know it yet but she has a happy life ahead ❤️

    @grandymommy4531 Рік тому +1

    I have seen this pattern and wasn't sure how that front would lay on a real person. It, on you at least, turns out to her very flattering. So, I'm considering getting it. With the sleeves it might be a good choice for my Christmas sewing. I don't really like sewing with knits so I'll need to read the pattern to see the choices for fabric. It would be great for lounge wear for my granddaughters. I think it is fairly easy, but, you know, you make everything look easy!

    Cheap fabric is often a pain to work with, but sometimes expensive fabric also gives us the runaround... 🤷‍♀️ As long as the end result is good, it's worth the aggravation, and those PJs are lovely. As for the puppies, they are adorable! 😍 Hopefully it's not too hot for puppy cuddles 😁 Have a super weekend!

    I really like the design of the whole garment. Thank you for the sew along. I will put this pattern on my fabric store pattern sale list.
    I agree with you working with light weight knit fabric can be challenging.
    The top looks like it would be a nice dress.
    I love your new puppy friend. She is very lucky to have such a wonderful new family and home.

    Very pretty PJ’s! I would wear those outside. I see you are wearing what I think is Simplicity 8910. It looks so lovely on you. I want to sew that soon but am concerned about getting the bodice right as I am 5’2” and usually need a FBA along with being short waisted. Would you say going by bust measurement is easiest as you did in your video or should I try a FBA since I am so short? I am very inexperienced and have just got back into trying to sew clothes after a long break. I love watching your videos to learn new methods and inspire me to just give it a go. Also Misty is just adorable.

    • @mybucoliclife
      @mybucoliclife  Рік тому

      I'd start with using the bust measurement for picking pattern size. If you're not sure, try just using the front and back bodice pieces as a mock up, no sleeves, just to make sure the shoulders are good too.

    I'm just about to make Butterick 4913 which has the same bodice with the pleats/darts and v neck with buttons down the front so was so glad to see you make these pjs. They look really great and I enjoyed watching you make them. I can now go ahead and make my dress with some confudence. Love little Misty, she's a darling. I'm sure we'll see more of her.
