DIY Mini wrap dress | Step by step sewing tutorial

Hi everyone,
Welcome or welcome back to my channel. My name is Jess and I love doing DIY, making clothes in a "simply but pretty" way.
In today's video, I'm going to share with you how I made my Mini wrap dress from scratch. This dress has the top and the bottom of the dress in one piece. The tie of the front is belong to this piece too. So it will create the gathering fabric at the front when you tie the dress. It makes the dress look very pretty. So I hope you will like it and try it out.
To make this DIY, please check out my basic information below:
- Sewing machine: Merrit Joyful Sewing
- Material: 2m of linen fabric
- My body measurements: 82-64-92cm. I'm 165cm tall and usually wear Small size.
I learn sewing by myself. So I would love to know more sharing from you guys to improve my skill. Please join me in this sewing journey by being a part of it here www.jessdangdi...

GENIOUS!! GENIOUS!!! GENIOUS!!! THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS WITH US - YOU´RE ONE THE FEW THAT REALLY DO THINGS I ACTUALLY WANT TO WEAR...

[@JessDangDIY]

Thank you so much!

[@raraavis7782]

Very nice. I'm not really into the whole 'cottage core'/ruffles/puff sleeves thing, so I'm glad, you did a more clean and elegant design, this time.
Your drafting instructions seem very clear and easy to follow. Looking forward to trying this on the weekend.

[@JessDangDIY]

I hope you will like it

[@JessDangDIY]

Thanks a lot! After un-sew to create the hole, re-stitching 2 ends of the hole to keep the seam

Paaaaahfeksssshhhhiooooon!

[@ItsYasmeennn]

If I wanted to start? Where would you recommend starting as far as learning how to sew? What would be some examples of smaller projects before this one?

[@iriswiedemer5886]

If u want to start really small u could try pillow cases and things like that but if u want to start making clothes then I recommend making tank tops. Depending on what tutorial u use they can be really easy

[@JessDangDIY]

Yeah, I think it depend on which level of the beginner you are. If you just bought a sewing machine and have no experiences before, I think going with some small project like pillow case, drawing string bag,.. will help you get to know your sewing machine better. Then you can start with making some clothes for yourself. You can start with some thrift flip from your old clothes that you don't wear anymore. You can check out some of my t-shirt transformation to follow along. Some of them are very basic and beginner friendly.

[@bebesofia8902]

Waw so cute and looks easy. But dunno 😅

[@sarahchin3632]

Love this so much! Thanks for the tutorial Jess 😊 would it be possible to do a DIY work clothing series?

[@JessDangDIY]

I'll try to check it out soon. As my work doesn't need to wear work clothes, I need to see which one will be good for it first :)

[@avecmoncoeur]

Great video! Very straightforward. Only thing I don't understand is the very end. You say to un-sew part of the side seam to create a hole for the tie. Wouldn't that leave a raw edge? And there's no backstitching to keep the hole from getting bigger. Can you clarify? I'm sure I'm misunderstanding something. I'm still very new! Thank you!

[@JessDangDIY]

Yes, after un-sew a little there to create the hole, you need to backstitching 2 ends of the hole to keep the seam
