Removing the "button front" feature from any dress + lining. Lyric & Holyoke dresses. Twinning!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 жов 2019
- You can eliminate the button front feature from a dress sewing pattern you already love and know fits you to have a simple front, both for the bodice and the skirt. I am showing how to find the reference on your pattern to make this change with the example of two different dress patterns: The Lyric (Love Notions) and the Holyoke (Cashmerette).
Both are tried and tested for both my mother and I and due to the chosen print of the fabric, the button front feature was not required.

Oh, and I am also sharing how to line the Lyric dress!

I did not want to make this video too heavy with information, so the custom skirts drafted for the bodices can be separate if there is interest in this topic. Otherwise, ignore the pencil skirts and pretend the original skirt pieces were used without the button front feature too 😊

I would remove a button placket now that you've so expertly shown how to do it. The pictures of you and your mom make me smile 😍
Yes! I like my dress. Love you Karina, my sweet little girl
You look so beautiful 😍
I'm a little late but You are So Talented! Everyone needs a Daughter like you!😀😀
I always learn from your videos. That is why I have so many saved for future reference. Thank you.
Thank you so much 😊. That makes me super happy 😃 and I’ll let you in on a little secret: I’ve used my own tutes when I’ve forgotten a detail of something I haven’t sewn in a while 😀.
Amazing amount of planning! Awesome job. I couldn't begin to demonstrate that much forethought regarding pattern placement. I think this really demonstrates your level of expertise. Thank you for sharing.
You and your mum look absolutely fabulous. I absolutely LOVE watching and listening to your videos. Your voice is so relaxing and beautiful to listen to and your content is superb, you can't beat limitless sewing. Thank you xxx
Your words mean the world to me. This is the vision of the channel and I absolutely love what I do. I’m so happy you enjoyed it 🤗
Oh you two look absolutely darling in your dresses! I love what you decided to do with the pattern so not to disturb the print of this fabric! And Karina, you know I am a lot like you in respect that I love changing a pattern I know fits me to make it work for the idea in my head!
Stunning dresses on you and your mom!
Beautiful dresses. Great fabric placement.
Thank you so much 😊. It took a bit of brain work to get it to work but so worth it 😄. Thanks for watching 😊.
This is your talent, changing patterns and making them into a design that works better or differently for you. This is why I enjoy your channel so much!! Your Mum and you look so good in your dresses!!!!! Take care and God Bless.
I’m glad you enjoy the little changes, this is the essence of who I am as a seamstress. Sadly, these types of videos are the ones that few people view for some reason 😢, it’s predictable and makes me question many things.
@@LiftingPinsandNeedles This is very sad! I don't know if I know anything, but I see tutorials from young people, some are trained & have a lot of knowledge, but they still make things without turning up the hem or doing proper finishing all around. I think some of these sewers or their viewers don't care as much about quality & longevity. It seems they want things as quick as possible, they want it for right now and will throw it away later. I watch several " yt families" with a variety of subjects- Homesteading, growing fruits & vegetables, DIY around the home and many others. All of them that have been with "yt" a long time have said something has changed with how they are doing things & it is hurting very good people! I do not understand but I sincerely hope this changes. God Bless.
Excellent video, Karina! Both you and your lovely mum look gorgeous in your dresses! I really appreciate all of the sewing content and useful information you include in the up close and sew personal segments.Your limitless sewing ideas provides even more inspiration for using patterns multiple times.😘
Thank you so much. These types of videos are my “essence, vision and ethos” and I love sharing these tips. It makes me super happy you enjoy them 🤗🤗.
So agree on reusing and playing with patterns that are already fitted. Great designs for that lovely fabric. 💕
It’s a wasted opportunity to not use again. All the work done the first time.... the print of the fabric is totally mum’s and I style. Thanks for watching 😊.
Thanks for the tips on the changes you made to the pattern, so helpful. And, your mom is turning out to be quite the model. She is so cute. I could see her llittle smile as she walked back and forth.
She’s never done stuff like this before and my dad was there, so she was laughing so much 😀
Love your videos! You explain everything so well. Getting a kick out of the outside shots because my cousin is half Brazilian from the same area. My mother is Norwegian and our other half is Danish and we live in the US.
How cool! I’ve normalized all the green and sounds here and when I go somewhere else, I miss the endless green.
Such a helpful video! I have a vogue pattern with buttons all down the front and I have removed the button placket. I just need to make it up but its a summer dress so will have to wait until next year. I've done that with the sleeve lining before it works so well. Thank you for sharing :-)
Thank you so much. Some prints and fabrics just don’t benefit from the button. This one would’ve looked terrible. I love the button fronts too but enjoy being adaptable 😀.
Thank you so much Karinna for sharing this detailed video with you. I really enjoy watching your video's and have almost seen all your video and look forward to your next video :-)
Lovely! I never thought to take away the button band, with your instructions I will be doing it often. I don't like making button holes ☺️
Thank you 😘
I do love a good button band but some fabrics don’t need it and this one didn’t need the disruption of the print in the middle. Thanks for watching 😊.
Karina! You never cease to amaze me. Thank you for these up close and personal videos. I love them:-) keep up the good work.
I’m so glad you like them 🤗🤗
Stunning dresses. You explain your finishes very well, thank you. Fantastic sewing and pattern placement. xxx
These were special dresses and I’m so pleased to have made them like I envisioned. Thank you so much 😊
Your video opens up all kind of possibilities with patterns I already own, so thank you! Enjoyed seeing you and your mom in your pretty dresses.
I’m so glad you can apply this to your sewing 😁. This is too fun not to try. Thanks for watching 😊.
Very pretty!! Love the idea
Thank you so much 😊
Fabulous love the sleeve attachment, you both look gorgeous
Thank you so much 😊
As always, I learned a few more sewing tricks. Thank you for sharing with us.
You’re very welcome 😊. It’s my pleasure.
You and your Mum are adorable❤️ I was actually just looking at that Cashmerette pattern today thinking how nice it was except the buttons put me off! You read my mind!
Ha ha that’s great timing! I do like buttons but sometimes they don’t need to be there. The Holyoke has the option of making the placket fake too. The dress can be slipped on.
Beautiful dresses!
Thank you so much 😊
That fabric is beautiful! I definitely will try this adaptation. Thanks for the great tutorial! Those dresses look amazing, ver flattering.
Thank you so much 😊. These were very special projects. Sentimental value here. I’m so glad I like them and the video.
Lovely!
Thank you so much 😊
Lovely! 😘
Both dresses are gorgeous! Quite an accomplishment. 😂
Very special dresses indeed! Packed with sentimental value too.
Another great video , love the black band, looks as though it should have been there..
Thank you so much 😊. I like it and saved me some main fabric too. Win win 😄
Lovely dresses. Your mom has the same taste that I have
Thank you so much and I copy her style too 😊.
How sweet upu and your mom twins
Gteat Great makes ❤❤
Thank you so much 😊
My favorite part: How you attached the lining at the sleeve. Thank you!
I’m glad you liked it 😄. It’s easy and neat that way. Thanks for watching 😊.
Great advice as always. A separate question here, did you ever do a review of the itchtostitch La Paz knitted jacket? I thought you did but couldn’t see it from your library of videos. Can you point me in the right direction?
I have the pattern but haven’t had the chance to sew it yet. So many patterns and so little time 😌. I hope to get to it in November 😀
Thanks for the great video! I have a top pattern with buttons down the back…I want to change it to a keyhole type opening in the back. Should I follow the same steps as this video?
Yes. Find the button hole placement, fold it away and that’s the Center back. You can add a seam to have the slit on the top or cut on top and make a little facing for the keyhole opening.
Thank you!

What kind of material do you use for the lining? Is the dress a knit?
The fabric is cotton sateen with a tad of elastane. It’s a woven. The lining is satin charmeuse with a tad of elastane too. Thank you so much for watching.

If you put 2 red buttons in the middle of the waistband it would look like a black belt
