    The dresses are beautiful. I enjoyed the different flow in your explanation. Although you didn't do a "formal" up close and so personal, you explained your steps with video clips and showing the actual dress. Very well explained. Thank you!

    Your dresses are beautiful. You are an inspiration. I have to say I wear all my clothes until they wear out. Then they take on a second life sometimes as a dusting cloth.

    Karina, I just purchased the Tallinn pattern and I love how you changed it, especially cutting the enter front on the fold and I must try the V-neck. You are so talented!

    This is gorgeous. I haven't been drawn to this pattern until now. I can now totally see myself in a Celeste Dress. I am going to buy it this go around. It is so lovely the way you cut out the stripes and created this piece of Art. So gorgeous and flattering.

    I saw that dress and didn't like it because of all the seams. It just seemed like a bit much. But after the way it fits and flatters you figure. I'm going to have to take a second look at it!

    • @LiftingPinsandNeedles

      I always love the seams. They are just sort of straight and not complex to sew. They make such a difference 😀

    You are so very creative, I just loved this! I know you put much thought into them.
    Your dresses are pretty and flattering. You look so cute in them.
    I often feel that you are giving me permission to experiment and that’s so good. Your ideas about stripe placement is very helpful.
    Take care! ❤️

    I’m wearing the five tops I made quite a lot because they fit and feel great (finished seams). No more RTW for me! You never cease to inspire me. Another wow on this dress and can’t wait to see you style it with another make.

    • @LiftingPinsandNeedles

      Love how you constantly challenge yourself to look at an old favorite in a new way. Like me fabric is the inspiration. As usual there is a subtle détail and voilà!!!!

    I have already made the Celeste dress twice with wovens. I love that pattern. Thanks for the inspiration to make it in a knit. I'll miss the pockets, though.

    • @LiftingPinsandNeedles
      @LiftingPinsandNeedles  2 роки тому

      It’s not that I don’t like them but they’d sag with this fabric.

  • @barbarawarner4645

    Both of these dresses are flattering and . . . . . . perfect, as you know. Thanks so much for the inspiration. After you made the Itch to Stitch dress last year, I hacked it ( without pockets) with a princess lined pattern I knew already fit. A favorite dress for me. It’s such a great pattern though, I decided to buy it to sew for my daughter who is several sizes smaller.

    I've had 5 patterns in my wish list for Itch to Stitch, I just used your link and popped over there to pick them all up...thank you for the information on the 25% discount! I'm intrigued by the La Paz jacket, maybe in a French Terry.
