- Опубліковано 22 сер 2024
- I am sharing my version of the gorgeous Willow wrap dress (Love Notions). Due to my fabric choice, I made some construction modifications for the design to be successful and look the way I wanted. I am sharing how I lined the bodice partially while enclosing the shoulder seams and how I am binding the neckline and sleeveless armscye. I’m very excited about this dress!

Thank you for being so thorough in your explanations of your process. I love the pattern. Lovely fabric too!
I love your dress. I’m so thrilled you made the sleeveless. I love that no adjustment was needed. I actually really like the idea of the lined back and double binding too. I’ll use a lighter weight fabric so I can do this also. Looking forward to making this one. I don’t really care for the full skirt option so this is ideal. Thank you for all you do. I used your link. Yay!! 🪡 💕
Thank you for your wonderful instruction. I've bought patterns under your ambassador link and even though they were in sale your link have me an additional discount! Thank you! And such great instruction. Thank you
Great pattern
Thank you Karina! I am making my youngest the Willow Wrap Top (straight version) but as I was cutting the fabric I was thinking it was finer and stretchier than my experience could confidently handle. I like the way a binding looks and I find facings always turn out nicer. I knew you must have a video on fine stretchy knits and the Willow wrap. Thanks again!
Also - yours looks so good on you! love the print
I found your channel when I was looking for a bias binding tutorial (which was wonderful). I had also recently found Love Notions patterns. I made several of their Namaste pajamas as Christmas gifts. Thank you for taking the time to make these videos...I really enjoy them! I will be sure to use the affiliate link when I go back to purchase more Love Notions patterns.
You look great! I love your video's and teaching style
Thank you so much 😊
Very nice and flattering dress. Another great tutorial!
Thanks for watching 😊. It was such a simple style but there’s always something practical to share.
I am so in love with your dress. So beautiful! You are a lovely woman. Thank you for sharing the construction of your dress with us. I am just learning to sew with these beautiful knits. I appreciate your explanation of the negative ease needed with these stretchy knits. I also appreciate seeing how you adjusted the pattern for your size needs. My daughter is taller like you and would most likely need a similar adjustment. I am a petite so would need to either go with the pattern size or shorten. Most of my length is in my torso with short legs. LOL! I really enjoy your videos. Cheers!❤🤗
Karina - this is lovely! I have been away from my sewing for about a year and I am soooo happy to be back! I have been binge watching you for the past two weeks and I am delighted to see all of the wonderful things you have made since we first met such a while ago ~ you are doing great things with your channel and I am so glad to see you! Blessings and be well dear!
welcome back to sewing! I hope you are safe and well :)
A beautiful dress expertly made! I love all your bodice construction.
Thank you so much 😊
Lovely dress and love how you talk us through making it, thank you
I’m glad you like it. It’s my vision for the channel.
I was rewatching this Willow dress video and decided that I really need a few. I checked my pattern stash and was sure I owned it. Nope. I have the Willow Top pattern. They are slightly different. I guess I will wait for it on a $5 Friday.
Patterns are featured once a year or more, so it could be a bit of a wait :)
Thanks for the wonderful review - you look great in the dress. It seems tob e pretty much the perfect wrap; no gaping neckline, no ties to fiddle with, AND cup sizes! It's been on my list, but now it's in my downloads - thanks again!
It really is very comfortable, wearable and easy to sew. I’m silly I’d only made the peplum before. Thanks for watching 😊.
Beautiful dress! Thanks for showing the binding, I'll be doing that a lot.
I always love your videos they are always so well presented . You are a great teacher and I can’t wait for your next video. Thank you so much for producing this (and other) video.
Another great dress on you and another well informed video.
Thank you so much 😊.
I really like your style Karina and the quality of your sewing is superb. I am learning so much from you. This is a beautiful dress.
Very pretty dress. Like that neckline.
Thank you so much 😊
Another GREAT thorough tutorial! You always have sensible techniques to enhance the garment. I will definitely use the back lining idea in my next make and add it to my toolbox of sewing goodness. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with me in a small in Texas, USA.
I’m so glad you liked it. I’m always thinking ways to adapt when the fabric choice isn’t exactly the best one. I really liked the print on this one and had a vision of it in this style. Thanks for watching 😊.
Great vlog as usual! I've sent this off to the printers and will make it myself soon. Cant wait!
Super cute on you!!
Thank you so much 😊
Adorable dress .That fits you perfectly .Bravo!!
Thank you so much and a quick sew too 😁
Looks super gorgeous on you
Hi Karina, Love the dress, love the fabric!! I am very math challenged. I understand you have a "feel" or knowledge/experience for the fabric stretch. With your math ability & your experience you know just what to do! I will keep learning and paying attention to these details. Thanks so much. God Bless.
I’ve always loved maths and love that aspect of sewing, but some things go by feel and that’s the free part of sewing. Thank you so much 😊
Very cute dress, looks great on you. Thanks for the video, love it.
Hi from England. I am always way behind watching vlogs! i may catchup one day! Enjoyed this, as usual, the dress length is slightly longer on you and I really like it. Thank you for doing these videos.
So many dresses and skirts later, I know the length I like and adapt patterns to have that. It’s second nature now. Thank you so much for watching 😄
Wow, the coverage! Another pattern for my wish list. 😃
It's so good! I really like this one :)
Lifting Pins and Needles By the way, thank you for making these videos! I wasn't all that impressed with the patterns because I don't like the fabric choices and styling in some of the photos. But your comments on fit have convinced me to try out Love Notions patterns!
Gorgeous dress and one I had overlooked before went straight through your link to purchase :D
Thank you so much 😊, you’ll love it 😍
Its beautiful. But everything you make is beautiful. I think you will make a lot of these this is my style I hope I can make one as gorgeous.
Yours looks great!! I've had this pattern for awhile. I need to make it. Great idea for the thinner fabrics to make it more stable! I'll have to remember that!!
Beautiful Karina. I just picked up this pattern yesterday, can't wait to sew it up, thank you for the review and tips. Love how you lined the back bodice.
Thank you so much 😊. I’m sure you’ll love it. The lining at the back was a great choice to add support to the back. I’m very pleased with how the dress feels on.
Some great tips there as usual Karina. I hate that "bra strap" bulge in the back and I love the way you lined the back. Dress looks cute and very comfortable.
Nothing worse than the bra bulge on thin fabric. Makes things unwearable. This is a practical solution and the dress feels amazing on with the extra support. Thanks for watching 😊.
Very flattering; looks lovely on you! Thank you for your wonderful tutorials in 2019. I look forward to following you in 2020!Happy New Year.🍾🎆
Thank you so much 😊. This was the last make of 2019 and it ends the year on a high note 😄
Wish it was still $5. Adorable dress.
There’s a 40% off sale starting tomorrow :)
@@LiftingPinsandNeedles Oh, thanks!, I was just thinking if we wished hard enough it would make it so.
Beautiful dress as always, happy Christmas to you and yours 🎄🎄🎄🎄🎅🎅🎅🎅
Thank you so much 😊. Merry Christmas to you too.
Great tutorial! I plan to make this soon using your tips - Thank you for sharing.
Yèè Karina. I was waiting for your video. I wanted you to help me to make my choice. You did it ! 😀. I am going to purchase this pattern (via your link of course as usual 😁). Thank you and Merry Christmas
It really is an awesome pattern and you’ll love it 😊
Very very pretty. Wish I had seen this before making my stretch velvet dress, it was a little thick for my pattern which was very similar to the one you used. The pleats were too much. Anyway I shall wear it.
Lovely style on you. I like the slightly longer skirt. I always thought I liked the shorter length on you, but for some reason ( volume of the skirt?) this one is extra special.
I feel good with above or mid knee and since I had the fabric for mid knee, I went with that length here :)
I like it and it looks great on you!
What a lovely job!
Have you ever tried sewing the bodice to the skirt in between the lining and regular bodices?Then you could have mpst of the garment sandwiched inside the back lining and the back part.The armholes would still be open, so you could pull the garment through there. Just a thought...Linda Palmer
I do that when I line the whole bodice. In this case the lining is just at the back so I can’t really do what you are saying.
I just ordered the pattern. Thanks.
Thank you!
You’re very welcome 😉
Merry Christmas honey, you are amazing
Thank you so much 😊. Merry Christmas to you too.
Thank you ! I’ll try that Merry Christmas to you and your family
This is a great pattern for a wrap style dress. Most of them are either cut too low, or gape open to show the world all the assets. I tend to stay away from this type for those reasons.
I’ve had to modify these types of bodices before but not this one. The higher neckline is perfectly modest for me and I really like that. Thanks for watching 😊.
Gostei.😍😍😍😍
I am absolutely looking at making this dress, but was wondering if you use a straight stitch on stretch fabric how the stitches don’t pop 🤔🤔🤔
I used a straight stitch on binding all the time because they don’t pop. There’s several seams done with binding :) also, this was my mum’s machine and I had no other option. On my machine, I use a shallow zig zag :)
@@LiftingPinsandNeedles 😊 thank you for such a quick response 🌺🌺🌺
Are you going to do a video on the willow wrap top?
Ive been waiting for the pattern to be updated. It’s an older pattern with a limited size range ah this point :)
Please discuss how the commercials work. Do you make your wages if we click off of them? What if we watch part of it? The banner ads at the bottom of the screen - do you make your wages if we leave it there? Just want to make sure how to help your paycheck while on UA-cam. Of course - I am going to Patreon tomorrow so moot point - but that is a monthly payment to help your wages instead of commercials. I think it would be helpful for all of us regular viewers to know best how to help your bottom line. If you have previously discussed all of this - please point me to that video or post ~ thanks so much! You can see that I am binging your Love Notions playlist because of the sale that starts today, lol. I don't own any of their patterns and I have made sure to use your link!
I’ve never talked about them on a video because UA-cam discourages the discussion and I’ve never truly understood how it works. I know that watching them partially helps, but they are also skippable to give the viewer a choice too. The amount made in every video is very very little and that’s why I set up patreon last year to help offset the costs. Thank you so much for your willingness to support my work 🤗
I love this dress. You look great. I can't find your affiliate link to order the pattern.
In the description box of the video. But here it is also :)

Silly question maybe...but did you lengthen the back bodice by the same amount?
Of course :) Same amount.
Lifting Pins and Needles yes I should know this. I am making this dress for a friend. First time doing this so quite nervous. My head is bouncing around with everything I need to do so not thinking too clearly.
I should’ve mentioned there back also. I only talked about the front there 😳. Relax and take it one step at a time ☺️
@@LiftingPinsandNeedles -+ I just bought the pattern and I was wondering as well, as the pattern itself doesn't show any shorten/lengthen line on the back bodice piece. Thanks for your help!
@@monica_diaz_tourist_guide I make my own line in the place I need it, usually matching where I did it on the front.
Karina how do you measure for the binding around the arms? And as everybody has been saying this dress is beautiful on you.
I measured the same as the one on the neckline. Measured the circumference of the armscye and cut the binding at 85% or 15% shorter.
Would a stretch velvet/velour work with that swing skirt?
Yes ir would 😀
