    You look so cute today! Not that you don't every day! I made the Monte dress and will be remaking it into something else! I just do not like seeing myself in a dress anymore. Plus, I didn't notice the fake pockets being so low on the top portion when I did just the top! Will redo the dress into a top and recut the fronts and facings to shorten. All is not lost! Will make a Cielo top out of the bottom portion. I love that top on me. Leaving for Vegas for my daughters wedding this week, so my machine can have a little rest! Always enjoy your makes!

    Your animal print will look amazing in the fall and winter with your leather boots a bright orange red Genely and your camel blazer (I'm sure you made one! lol) The floral one, wear it with your white collared blouse crossed over with a belt on the outside and heals in a bright colour to match a flower in the skirt! Ava's skirt looked like a hi-low skirt, I wouldn't worry about the dropping unless it looks really bad, for now it looks like it's suppose to be like that! lol

  • @SamanthaLlanos

    Love your skirts! It's motivating me to whip that pattern out and make one! The faux wrap is so sleek! Zipper series would be great! I'm not great at invisible zippers, and would love to see how you do a lapped zipper!

  • @vannahhall915
    @vannahhall915 3 роки тому +3

    I saw your daughter's skirt and thought it was a new asymmetrical hem! 😂 She looks great! And you look smart with the faux wrap. Hope you have a great weekend.

    Love the idea of zipper insertion series - it'd be a great resource indeed! Insertion types I'd suggest include invisible, lapped, fly, exposed

  • @thaisoneon

    I always enjoy your channel and will eagerly await your zipper tutorial. I’ve watched videos and read articles but have yet to find even one that deals with the excess zipper tape above the stop. I know I’m not supposed to just cut the excess off but have never learned the rules /guidelines for folding it out of way nicely. The tape is invariably stiffer than my garment fabrics, and usually the top of the zipper is at the neck or waist, where there is already extra stiffness from collar and waistband interfacing. I fervently hope you’ll include this information! And yes, I’m ,prepared to be embarrassed for having to ask such a basic question! Thanks.

    • @TomKatStitchery
      @TomKatStitchery  3 роки тому +1

      I agree that this is often brushed over. I feel like most zipper tutorials just show you how to insert with scrap fabrics as the “garment”. My plan is to actually make a garment with the zipper so you can see how to finish things off as well!

    This video is so timely. I bought some sale fabric at JoAnn yesterday, thinking I might like a skirt. And then today!!! LN kindly tags the Sybil skirt for the Friday sale. I love your makes! And. . . it's one I don't have --until 5 minutes from now. lol. Thanks for the review.

    The first two fabrics are right up my alley and I hope and can get them today because if all goes well (fingers crossed) I will be sewing this weekend. Yes on the zipper classes. I have yet to sew one and been avoiding any pattern with zippers however I’m so drawn to fitted items so maybe it’s time to level up my sewing skills.

    How funny, I’m sitting here with 2 yards of that floral fabric, trying to decide what to make with it! I loved it, too. Does the shaping extend to the hip length or how far? Your daughter’s outfit will be so cute with a Jean jacket for school this fall.

    I had this pattern a couple of years ago and made the A line skirt, there was a problem with the pattern being too short by a 2-3 inches on one side. I am writing this so that others measure the sides of the A line skirt before cutting to make sure this problem has been resolved. Happy sewing everyone.

    • @TomKatStitchery

      I find that midi skirts are all about proportion. As long as they hit the correct spot on your leg, it doesn’t matter your height!

      It’s an Apple Watch and I can answer my phone on it. However, I don’t have a cell plan that includes the watch so my phone has to be somewhat close for me to be able to answer or talk on it. It’s great for around the house because my phone can be on another floor of the house and I can answer from my watch if I know I won’t make it to the phone!
