Thanks for sharing this video. I am 87 years and all my life I have wanted t be able to draft patterns like you do. You are truly a talented young lady! I wish I had even a tiny bit of your knowledge! Great job!

[@KimDave]

Wow thank you for this beautiful comment 🥰💕

[@4Waridi]

@ruthdunn9170 Was being a fashion designer your dream? Please give it a go if you can. A desire accomplished is sweet to the soul. It is not too late.
I am in a creative group with many seniors who discover their creativity in their elderly years and thrive in it. They are producing mind blowing art.

[@leslietaylor1570]

The dress is beautiful. It’s amazing how in your house and light background the purple was the dominant color but at the venue with the gold balloons the yellow was dominant! Belle of the ball(prom)!!

[@KimDave]

The decor at the venue really went well with colour palette of the fabric 👌👌👌yes to gold balloons 😍

Because of your videos i remember my dressmaking lessons in high school and still learning more, love your tutorial, love your style, I'm a monochromatic girl but now I'm not scared anymore of prints and patterns hope I can have a degree in fashion, love from the Philippines ❤

[@KimDave]

[@KimDave]

Thank you so much!

[@abbyadekugbe2635]

Thank you for all of your amazing sewing videos, your skills are truly amazing. Your videos have been pivotal in my sewing journey. Would love to see a pattern and sewing video for a puffer vest or jacket!!

[@KimDave]

You are so welcome! 🤗
Appreciate the love. It’s spring here in the U.K. which is a slightly late for a puffer jacket but maybe coming winter we might get to making one

[@gladysscott526]

Thanks for watching

[@purplegira1248]

You look absolutely stunning in that!! And, I love how happy you look in it, getting to go to that prom must have been a really magical experience
As a trans woman who didn't get to be herself at her high school prom, this is really inspiring me to try and do something similar. I'm just starting to learn how to make garments, but I really wanna find a queer prom somewhere, sometime, and make my own absolutely over-the-top dress for it now.

[@kikic4185]

Beautifully made and worn ❤. Definitely a 10

[@KimDave]

Thank you! 😊

[@damayanthiperera7444]
