    Anita I stopped in the middle of this video and bought the pattern. You are such a “bad influence”. You have become my sewing muse my friend.

    I LOVE how the necklaces and the zipper compliment each other. Zipper jewelry :). Nice versatile dress!

    • @AnitabyDesign
      @AnitabyDesign  2 роки тому

      Yeeesss! "Zipper Jewelry!" I love how the necklaces complimented the zipper too. I'm gonna get so much wear from this dress.

    Lovely Anita!! This dress looks better on you than the model on the pattern
    You actually "pair" this dress extremely well. I wouldn't change a thing!

    You are so correct, sewing inspiration can be found anywhere... I once found it on the moss of a tree (seriously).😊 That dress is a timeless classic, and I love your t-shirt. I feel exactly the same way...JESUS and a sewing machine!

    So many of the women in my family are seamstress that I decided to give into my God given talent and join them! Yesterday I picked up my Singer 4452 and started watching UA-cam videos. I'm SO glad I found your channel. You are THE most clear, informative and thorough instructor I've found. New subscriber here 😉. Blessings

    • @AnitabyDesign
      @AnitabyDesign  2 роки тому +1

      Yaaayyy, Kimberly! Welcome to the sewing community! Oh my goodness! Your family must be dancing and singing about you joining them. Oooohhh, how I wish my sisters would sew. What a beautiful gift you have. I'm so glad to have you join me here. I hope you will enjoy your time on the channel. Blessings to you too, SEW Sister! 💕

    I love this dress. I’ve made it twice already. I eliminated the zipper even though the zipper makes the dress. I’ve never put in a exposed zipper before and didn’t want to mess it up. I am determined to make it with the zipper once I’ve watched more videos on how to insert the zipper. Thanks for the video! 👗🧵🪡🥰

    • @AnitabyDesign
      @AnitabyDesign  2 роки тому +1

      Oh yes, Sharon! You must try it with the zipper.

  • @nonabatiste219
    @nonabatiste219 2 роки тому +1

    Loved this pattern. I’m going to make three; one for me, my daughter and my granddaughter. It would look great with a crop or long sleeveless vest. I’ve been sewing since I was a young teenager and now I’m an old lady and my love of sewing has never wavered even when it’s popularity changed. I’ve sewn for my children, grandchildren and strangers. Your videos help to bring back a skill that I thought was going to fall by the wayside for young ladies, who never even learned to sew on a button. Thanks

    • @AnitabyDesign
      @AnitabyDesign  2 роки тому

      Oh Nona, you just made my heart smile. Wow! You've done a lot of sewing. After I came back from a long break from sewing to raise my family, I was shocked to see so many people sewing through online communities. I'm thrilled that the internet provides opportunity for people to learn sewing from anywhere. Thank you so much for being here and leaving a comment.

    Love this! I recently found your channel. I used to sew dresses for my daughter when she was young. I stopped when she got older. I never sewed for myself. The thought of all the adjustments seemed too daunting. About 2 years ago I pulled out the machine and started making quilts inspired by my Aunt and dresses for my granddaughters. I'm just now reconsidering making clothes for myself now that the rust is off (lol, it's been 10+ yrs). I've got one of your sew-alongs on my list for 2022. Thanks for the inspiration!

    • @AnitabyDesign
      @AnitabyDesign  2 роки тому

      Yaaayyy! I'm so happy to hear you're planning to sew something for yourself. Have fun and please come back and tell me how it went.

    Beautiful dress, so versatile. You look wonderful in it. One lady said your videos are such a bad influence, she goes and buys the pattern mid way through to make what you are showing. I’m afraid I will be doing the same thing! Thank you for your videos and your time!!

    Dear Anita, you have done it again perfect shoes and boots for this sofisticated dress, no tips needed. I think it would also adapt to a pencil skirt.

  • @marymac4729
    @marymac4729 Рік тому

    Anita, you just make me smile! I’m so glad you took on this pattern! I put mine away after I installed the too short recommended zipper and then ripped it back out! It is still in the bottom of my sewing bag! I temporarily gave up on it, and probably never would have finished it, but ran into your review and tutorial today! You have given me the sewjo to return to it!
    Of course it looks fabulous on you, as even a paper sack would! I love your patience and style of teaching. When your hands are shown in the videos, I find myself thinking God Bless those hands! Your book is great, and I have it in my sewing room for inspiration!❤️

    Good Morning beautiful!!! This dress is amazing and you are wearing it my sister. I have NEVER sewn ANYTHING. I just got your book and I have so enjoyed the reading. So very sorry for your loss. So Thankful you’re doing well. I love your website and I think I’m taking your sewing class. I lost 40 pounds and have packed so many clothes that I need to get on my sewing machine I purchased 15 years ago and made NOTHING. Thank you for your channel. I’ll look into your class. God Bless you and your family ❤️

    Love the dress Anita. I have a lacy blouse that I think would work good with that dress. I 'm planning on getting the pattern to make for myself. I'll let you know how it works. I love your site. You are a good teacher. I have been sewing since I was 13, but I haven't sown in about ten years. I am retired and I recently lost my husband. You have inspired me to start sewing again since I now have alot of time on my hand. Thank you.

    • @AnitabyDesign
      @AnitabyDesign  2 роки тому

      Oh Stephanie, I'm so very sorry to hear about your husband. I'm sending you so much love, my sister because I'm familiar with that loss. Sewing has been very therapeutic for me and I'm glad to hear that you're getting back into it. Congratulations on your retirement. Welcome back to sewing, my sister.

    Wow!! You look stunning in that beautiful dress!! ❤️ Did you have to purchase extra fabric since you cut it out on the lengthwise grain? Would love to see a tutorial on how you do a swayback adjustment.

      Hi Diane! Thank you so much. No, I actually had more leftover than I thought I would. I think it would depend on the width of the fabric you purchase. This fabric had plenty width-wise to accommodate the length of the dress.

    Go girl! I like all the ways you styled it! I liked the belt. It added that cinch to the waist. I would keep to silver jewelry because of the silver zipper. Those black zipper shoes are sooo perfect! Gotta love it!😁💖

    Anita, you are super cute!!! I love ❤ your dress and the different ways that you've styled it. What a great idea to wear an animal print shawl with a belt. I thought it was a vest at first!! Clever!!! You are a fashionista!!! The dress would look great with a short faux leather jacket too...Happy sewing!! I love your shirt...I ordered the mug!!

      Hi Patricia! Yes, I thought the scarf vest was a cute idea. And I love the idea of wearing it with a short leather jacket. I have one and I plan to wear it with the dress one day. Thanks for purchasing the mug. I appreciate your support.💕
