💥Hey y’all hey! As requested we’ve got the Vogue open robe tutorial up for you: ua-cam.com/video/Rf5MQzUaM2g/v-deo.html Let us know if you sew it with us!
@@handmadeharriells I'm a librarian, people get precious about books too. I think it's remembrance of scarcity? Our great grandmothers would have cut things up to make new things without hesitation.
I am still crushing on both of you. I am learning and remembering so many things. I want one of everything you make. You are a natural born leader and teacher! Thank you for being you and two.
What a fun video!! I haven’t used a commercial pattern for years! (I usually draft my own,) but then again, my philosophy has always been, use the best fabric and the simplest construction!! Hi, Rob!!❤️❤️
Fun and wonderful as usual. Years ago I had a drapery workroom and I can agree sewing is less about sitting at the machine and running thread through it than cutting and ironing. You need to do all three correctly. Hope you have a great Valentine's weekend.
I love everything you showed on this video. You are inspirational in the sewing community. Your passion towards sewing is beautiful Robe is so so funny and your love towards each other is BELLISIMO peace and love till next time XXXXX
I stumbled upon this channel in a sewing rut and OMG I’m now a subscriber and a fan. You are amazing and right away pulled out my machine and started sewing while watching more of your videos. Keep doing what you’re doing. Amazing!!
Hi! Now that I've moved across the country from Portland to Toronto, I am finally ready to settle back into sewing. I've missed watching your videos and learning to sew from you!
Ya’ll get the cutest couple ever award! 🥰🥰 Also. Can you please start a sewing school summer camp so all the brand newbies can learn from you in person? 🙏😊
Ooh yes - I can see it now! Sewing Bootcamp with the Handmade Harriells. Rob will be walking around with his clipboard and whistle directing all of us where to go. 😄 And at the end of the week we can walk the catwalk with our beautiful new creations. All your youtube fans can follow live updates and watch the big reveal fashion show. Please please please! With sugar on top?!?🙏😊🙏
Absolutely brilliant... you make me smile, laugh and chuckle while I learn so much about sewing clothes. I love watching you both, thank you ... from here in West wales in the UK xxx🪡👜🧵🌈
I know I'm a bit late but Happy Valentines Day! I love all your tutorials and sew a longs. And your tips and tools! I've been seeing on and off for years but you have not only inspired me but busted my confidence. You are as fabulous teacher and make. Everything fun. Thank you and God bless you and Rob.
Thank you again for your great encouragement. As a DUDE sewist it always bothers me how little there is for us to make from commercial patterns. I get it that there is less of a need but what about those of us that are a bit EXTRA, we are left to our own play and creations.
Heyyyy Professor! Yeah, there’s just not enough out there for the Extra dude. But I like the way you describe it leaving you to your own "play", which is exactly how the Extra Dude would view it!
I don't have that Vogue pattern but I think I would like to see a video on how to turn it into a robe all the same. :-) I was thinking which patterns I love and would recommend to others and the one that sprang to mind was Scroop Patterns Mahina Cardigan. I've only made it once so far but I'm definitely making more once I get some good natural fibre fabric for the purpose (my first one is 50% cotton 50% polyester and that's sadly a bit too much polyester for me; but I still love it). It has a unique sizing system, nice detailed instructions, and it's just such a fun and stylish yet pretty easy to sew garment - and it's one of those garments that can be taken in all sorts of directions with different fabrics.
@@handmadeharriells I struggled more with the Ngaio blouse which is still on the naughty pile... but that was largely because I'm very much between sizes and I decided to handsew it while stuck away from my machine and all my projects in the first lockdowns - not the best idea I've had, but I was going a bit crazy. :D In Scroop's favour, the patterns are very dutifully notched which actually helped me catch some mistakes in my inbetween-sizes handsewing-geared pattern cutting! I have a couple more and I need to get cracking on making them; it's one of the many things I didn't get around to in the past two years. I love how Leimomi puts in such details like which direction to sew the seams in, and various little tips and explanations that mean you may actually learn something while sewing. Not all the styles are something I can see myself wearing, but I still think in terms of commercial patterns that aren't Burda, Scroop is the most represented in my collection (followed by Itch to Stitch) - especially because so many of the other pattern companies these days keep churning out patterns for stretch knits which is kind of the opposite of the direction I want (and even need) to be taking my wardrobe!
I am so with you on the dress, so easy to just pop on (or take off!) Love your style, love your channel and I'm really feeling that we could be sisters from another mother (because my dad had an "I'm not going to veer from this one look, ever" style too.) My dad's style was found in the 50's with James Dean (a fellow Indiana boy). I'm like, give me some color, give me a fun long dress (or a long coat, I shop a lot of charity shops for those and change the buttons or add embelishments to those). Sewing is a fast disappearing art and you keep it fun and funky!
hey sewsis! Thanks for the love, fun and funky is what I aim for 💗 Well, at least our Dads landed in some good style ruts 🤣 My dad is usually in technicolor, this is by far the classiest Negroni in his Charlie Brown closet!
Happy Valentin's day to you & Rob. Thank you, Ms. Marcie, for the inspiring videos and easy step-by-step instructions. I love watching your videos it gives me hope someday I'll be able to make a decent clothes pattern, so far, I've only mastered blankets and tote bags! I've even upgraded my machine to a heavy duty one for thicker materials. I can't wait for all the upcoming patterns that you have lined up (maybe we'll see that one for Rob😉). Thanks for sharing🥰!
You’re so welcome! And if you’ve mastered blankets, you’ve got straight line stitching in your corner, garments are a stone’s throw away. A garment is just a blanket for your body 😁
Hi. Just found your channel. Love the V1493 pattern you made. Beautiful. I would say I am an advanced beginner in sewing and would love any how to videos you would like to make. I really enjoy the video. Thank you.
This one sent me flying off into tangent land! Went over to the site to check out the cami, starred looking at their pants! Finally wandered back to let you know this was a fun vid!
I have been sewing a lot during Covid, mostly upcycles and refashioned stuff. But that kimono coat was tantalizing 😮. So, right after watching your video, I ran to my local fabric store and bought the pattern….eeeck $33.95 in Canada . Luckily, I have a membership so I got a bit of a discount😅. So I would love a sew along on the Vogue 1493! And thank you for asking …the sleeves are interesting! I have piles of thrifted fabrics to play with …happy Valentines to you and hubby ❤️
YIKES that price! I was stunned to find out you can only get big 4 on deep discount here in the US. I oughta start some sort of pattern run for Canadian sewists 🤣 I’ll try and work up a 1493 video, at the very least, the tricky parts!
Hilarious video! I made the Ogden cami for the first time last year and love it. I love how you make everything a maxi length. That's something I never do 🤷🏾♀️
You are so fun and educational! I really enjoyed this video and your information. I don’t know if you have more than one video on embellishing Jean jackets. I’ll check it out because I saw one video on the subject and enjoyed it as well. Keep doing you!
I really liked that long coat you made from your quilt. Now my question is will you be making a video. On how you did that stiching on your you quilt coat? Thank you for sharing this video. Everytime i watch one of your videos. I get really inspired even though im just a beginner.
Thanks Maria! So, that coat is made from a Kantha quilt, which already has those long colorful running stitches throughout the quilt. I just cut the pattern pieces out of the quilt 💗 I hope you’re sewing along with us!
I bought some embroidered netting to make my very own window pane jacket! I look forward to wearing it this spring, summer and fall. And the outfit you showed patterns for would be fun! And the kantha quilted full length jacket is to. die. for!
ah Debra that’s excellent, cutting out those windowpanes is really such a good time! I need to make another kantha quilt jacket, it’s been too long since I murdered a quilt 😅🤣
Phew! Rob's face got RED there at the end... Don't set the building on fire with all that heat! I love all of these beautiful patterns, but being a super-extra fluffy person, I am so scared of trying to make clothing for myself, because I am intimidated. I have gotten creative and a little adventurous when DIY-ing costumes for my kids for Halloween. And I got pretty proficient as those dang 😷, but I will never regret making masks, because that is how I found your channel and fell in love with the idea that I actually could learn to sew! Thanks you!!
and I wasn’t even trying 🤣🤣🤣his blush should make a mandatory appearance in every video 🥰 I am absolutely thrilled to hear you’re taking mask making to the garment level. That’s what I hoped for when I put that video out 💗!
one of these days I really want to make a denim jacket like that! I've always envied yours! If you do another coffee video, can we please know more about those microphones? I'm very curious.
oh the ones we’re wearing? absolutely! Unfortunately one is cutting out when we’re both on camera….which is the exact thing this set is supposed to make *easier* 🙄. So I’ll give the skinny good or bad!
Nice patterns, u guys are hilariously funny together love 💕 watching U , hav a great Valentines Day 🥰👍 Make Rob his suit, he’s such a good sport n helper 🤩🤣👍
Good morning, Marcy, the last year years I have been quilting, Now, I want to go back to sewing clothes. Since you can change a pattern, I attempted to change a pattern, too. Instead of making an A-line skirt with four pieces, I place both pieces on the fold, thought I measured right, but when I sewed the pieces, one piece was shorter than the other piece. What did I do wrong. Ut was Butterick pattern 6742. A simple pattern, just think I can change patterns like you change patterns. Thanks for any light you can shine on my dilemma.
Hi Kathy, I wonder if there were multiple hem lines on the pattern pieces? Like, View a length, view b length? I’d double check that. The cutting lines for multiple sizes can also get hairy at the hemline, I generally cut along the bottom line even if it’s not the size I’m cutting. Also, when you place the a line on the fold, you might have to adjust for the curve of the hem, which is spread out over 2 pieces now instead of 4. I hope that helps, it’s a little tough without seeing the actual pattern pieces! My best advice when doing a hack like this is give yourself insurance at the hem. You can always level the hem when you’re done sewing! 💗
@@handmadeharriells Marcy, thank you for your information. Take care of yourself and Mr. Rob. (I love him, too). Sorry, but you have to SHARE him with your audience!
Gah! 2022 is my year to tackle jeans. I was debating the Birkin Flares and one other and went with... The other 😓 now I feel I made the wrong choice. OR I should just do both. It is the year of jeans???
I love that quilt that you used for the jacket and dress. Couldn't understand what you called the quilt. Is this something that can be purchased somewhere or was it a thrift store find? Would love to get one. Thanks!
I went to the somethingdelightful link to check the price for the tulip jacket, and it was on sale for only $5.99 through 2/21! Needless to say, it’s on its way to my house right now.
Love your videos! I would like to see more styles that look good on those of us who need to lose some weight. I can't wear the low cut styles because too much bosom. I like loose fitting clothes.
I highly, highly recommend checking out the Curvy Sewing Collective website and Facebook group, if you're not already familiar with them (which from the sound of your comment I'm guessing you're not). Excellent resource and source of inspiration, and as someone whose curves are mostly bone structure, I must say that is true in general, not just for plus size sewists! The first trick that springs to mind is to look for patterns that already contain bust cup sizes.
excellent recs from @beth12svist ! You might also check out Cashmerette, she takes bosoms and curves into great consideration. And the founder, Jenny, is also a great human 💗
You were very close, here’s how Koos van den Akker is pronounced in Dutch: Koos = like nose with a k, or even cozy minus the zee sound at the end. van = v a n (a like the a in what, want) den = like den. 😄 Akker = same A as in van, k-ker, like curve minus ve. Hope you don’t mind me Dutch-splaining, I just like to challenge myself making Dutch pronunciation easy for English speakers.
,I have a hard time buying patterns. My bust is 42 and if I go by the sizing on a pattern I will have to buy a size 18 or 20 which is toooo big for me. In pants I wear a 10 and in dresses a 12 because of my boobs. So I end up buying a size 12 or 14 pattern and size it to my measurements. My mom is a seamstress. She been sewing since she was around 18 years and is now 90 and still sewing. I can help myself with a simple dress. I am now trying to sew as she does I am always asking 😅her for 😅her advice. Your videos are helping me a lot Keep them coming
That’s so amazing to have a sewing guru within arm’s reach, she must love that y’all share this passion! Yes, barely anyone fits these patterns right out of the envelope. Fitting is such a wonderful and necessary skill!
💥Hey y’all hey! As requested we’ve got the Vogue open robe tutorial up for you: ua-cam.com/video/Rf5MQzUaM2g/v-deo.html

Oh your coat Marcy! Stupendous! Thank you for cutting up the quilt.
you are MOST welcome Noël. It’s nice to be thanked for reincarnating a quilt!
@@handmadeharriells I'm a librarian, people get precious about books too. I think it's remembrance of scarcity? Our great grandmothers would have cut things up to make new things without hesitation.
I am still crushing on both of you. I am learning and remembering so many things. I want one of everything you make. You are a natural born leader and teacher! Thank you for being you and two.
I agree...You do look cute in those jeans. i'm so relieved that we've returned to flared jeans. I loved this era...the mod 60-70's. my teenage years.
Yes yes yes to the open robe!!! Did I say yes? Yessssssssssssss
Oh my sides! You and Rob make me smile and laugh. Would love to see you sew Vogue 1493. Excited to see what you create.
What a fun video!! I haven’t used a commercial pattern for years! (I usually draft my own,) but then again, my philosophy has always been, use the best fabric and the simplest construction!! Hi, Rob!!❤️❤️
He says Howdy Nancy! I like that philosophy. Sounds like a recipe for a damn good sew 💗
I am fascinated by the idea of the dress pattern turned into a cover-up. Yes, Please
Yes please!, I would love to see the Vogue dress pattern into anything! I love that dress!
Isn’t it such a great dress? It’s time for me to sew another so I’ll shoot it!
Yes, yes, yes please show us how to open up that darling Vogue dress pattern !!! LOVE your channel so much!!!🥰✌️
thankya Maureen! The robe is on the way!
You are my Sew Sistah in my head! You have the happiest hair and yes to the robe pattern.
and in life-if you sew, we’re sistahs!
Fun and wonderful as usual. Years ago I had a drapery workroom and I can agree sewing is less about sitting at the machine and running thread through it than cutting and ironing. You need to do all three correctly. Hope you have a great Valentine's weekend.
A drapery workroom, that sounds like a DREAM. Happy 💗 weeekend to you too Angela!
Can I just tell you how much I LOVE your energy? Your videos always leave me so happy!
Excellent! That’s what we aim for!
Go Papa! Looks so good! I’m going to make that shirt for hubby!

I hope that helps, it’s a little tough without seeing the actual pattern pieces!
My best advice when doing a hack like this is give yourself insurance at the hem. You can always level the hem when you’re done sewing! 💗
@@handmadeharriells Marcy, thank you for your information. Take care of yourself and Mr. Rob. (I love him, too). Sorry, but you have to SHARE him with your audience!
Gah! 2022 is my year to tackle jeans. I was debating the Birkin Flares and one other and went with... The other 😓 now I feel I made the wrong choice. OR I should just do both. It is the year of jeans???
I think that’s a clear case of do BOTH. After all you need a couple different styles of jeans!
A. Love Rob in red face, B. Okay, never gonna do any of this but at the end, feel like a master sewist C. Loved the Pam Grier shout out.
I don’t even know where I shouted out to Pam Grier but I’m happy to do it 😅!
@@handmadeharriells Jeans at 4:06. I'm just a big Foxy Brown fella.
I love that quilt that you used for the jacket and dress. Couldn't understand what you called the quilt. Is this something that can be purchased somewhere or was it a thrift store find? Would love to get one. Thanks!
Ah that’s a “kantha quilt," give it a google and you’ll find many different kinds (and prices)! They’re made from scraps and remnants of saris 💗
I would love to see you make any of the commercial patterns. I have bought them but to terrified to make them..I feel inept...
ah Rhonda, that’s no good! we’ll get you into those envelopes!
I went to the somethingdelightful link to check the price for the tulip jacket, and it was on sale for only $5.99 through 2/21! Needless to say, it’s on its way to my house right now.
SCORE! We should put out a public alert 😅
I really enjoy watching…YOU…
I love you guys❤️
Love you Marcy
Ahhh but she did say it!!!!!!!!! The look of horror on your face LOL
Rob blushes like my David.......so cute xxxxxx
She often says things and realizes what she’s said a split second later 🤣 But ain’t it fun to make them blush? 😉
@@handmadeharriells The sweeter they are, the sweeter the blush xxx
Just love you guys
You two are adorable.
🤗🤗Thankya Jeanie!
Yes you did!!! You TOTALLY said that!! 🤭
😆😆😆Yeah I really did 🤣
Great job Girl
Great suggestions!!
Thanks Tashanna! Really some of my favorites (well, one’s more my Dad’s favorite, he has like a dozen now 😅)
Love your videos! I would like to see more styles that look good on those of us who need to lose some weight. I can't wear the low cut styles because too much bosom. I like loose fitting clothes.
I highly, highly recommend checking out the Curvy Sewing Collective website and Facebook group, if you're not already familiar with them (which from the sound of your comment I'm guessing you're not). Excellent resource and source of inspiration, and as someone whose curves are mostly bone structure, I must say that is true in general, not just for plus size sewists!
The first trick that springs to mind is to look for patterns that already contain bust cup sizes.
@@beth12svist thank you so much!
@@47retta You're welcome!
excellent recs from @beth12svist ! You might also check out Cashmerette, she takes bosoms and curves into great consideration. And the founder, Jenny, is also a great human 💗
@@handmadeharriells thank you!
Love Rob's tie. Where did you find the pattern? Is it a self drafted pattern?
that’s an old Vogue pattern, I believe….and he only wore it once. With much arm twisting!
Please open robe Vogue pattern! I would love to make as gift for daughter (her birthday is September so before then please?).
well, I hope I’m not jinxing it, but definitely before then….like in the coming weeks! 💗
Yes please do Vogue 1493 as an open robe.
ah you mean the dress, right? So many asked for it so it’s coming!
@@handmadeharriells yes the dress
You were very close, here’s how Koos van den Akker is pronounced in Dutch:
Koos = like nose with a k, or even cozy minus the zee sound at the end.
van = v a n (a like the a in what, want)
den = like den. 😄
Akker = same A as in van, k-ker, like curve minus ve.
Hope you don’t mind me Dutch-splaining, I just like to challenge myself making Dutch pronunciation easy for English speakers.
this is EXCELLENTLY put. And I love knowing how to pronounce from a pro! I may have to test out my accent again in a ☕️☕️video 👍🏽
Yes please show us how to make V1735 into open
done and done! ua-cam.com/video/Rf5MQzUaM2g/v-deo.html
Do the vogue pattern.
Fanfilppingtasic video ❤️❤️💕

Once again you knocked it out if the park. You guys are so cute and I love watching your videos. #marriagegoals lol
🤗🤗🤗thankya Jessica, we love being foolish together 😅
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 love it
,I have a hard time buying patterns. My bust is 42 and if I go by the sizing on a pattern I will have to buy a size 18 or 20 which is toooo big for me. In pants I wear a 10 and in dresses a 12 because of my boobs. So I end up buying a size 12 or 14 pattern and size it to my measurements. My mom is a seamstress. She been sewing since she was around 18 years and is now 90 and still sewing. I can help myself with a simple dress. I am now trying to sew as she does I am always asking 😅her for 😅her advice. Your videos are helping me a lot Keep them coming
That’s so amazing to have a sewing guru within arm’s reach, she must love that y’all share this passion! Yes, barely anyone fits these patterns right out of the envelope. Fitting is such a wonderful and necessary skill!
