    You are so funny when you're crabby! I love how you warned us about the not-so-good patterns, and how you described what it was that displeased you on those. Sew on, you wonderful sewist! We love you.

    I love your blue dress, it is so elegant! Your choice of fabrics are wonderful, the border print and the last fabric are my favorites. A seam ripper gets a lot of use in many of my projects but lately I start my garment with basting seams to check the fit especially if the pattern has a grown on sleeve which always seems to be too big and hang too low. Looking forward to your next video, happy sewing!

    Since you don’t like adding zippers, the blue dress pattern would be great in a stretch cotton sateen, as it would give a little. I agree with you on the tee shirt, loved the pattern. I made a dress with a great fabric (think Lily Pulitzer bright floral) and I made sure those flowers were not in prominent places! The shift dress is adorable! I have to make a bicep adjustment in any dress or blouse with sleeves, and I don’t have huge arms. The Kwik Sew dress fabric reminds me if fabric from the 60-70 era. 😊
