I just ordered the cape dress pattern! I’m so excited! We just got back from Amish Country Ohio and I kept remarking how pretty their dresses were.
The stretch needles have a ‘ballpoint’ tip so when they go through the fabric they slip between the fabric threads.
If you sew your knit fabrics with regular needles they can pierce the threads on the material making them snap (especially when you stress the fabric) and causing ‘ladders’ in your clothes :-)
Good to know!!
Ladders? I call then "a run" like you would get in any knit like nylon stockings, etc.
Thanks, appreciate all sewing advice!
Stop worrying about what your background/house looks like. We are here to watch your family and not here for what your home looks like :D
Love seeing Xander's excitement over the lunchbox and other stuff. As a Buckeye now living in South Dakota, I will be sure to order some fabric from Mt Hope.
thank you! (: Yes, life is life. thanks for being here!
سلام
I agree…we don’t live in perfectly clean homes either. I try to keep my house clean, as clean as I possibly can. I have health issues too.
Zander is so cute 😂and good humoured. I adore the dress design and colour your wearing. All the fabric is gorgeous. Love your videos too. Cant wait for the next xx
A mom of a toddler is always busy..Zander's smile just makes my day.The little lunch you made him was so sweet and special.
As a sewing instructor for years, I can tell you all about the needles. Machine needles are either ball point or sharp. The sharp needles are universal and the ball point needles at, believe it, rounded needle which moves between the knit threads not tearing them so you don't have that dreaded run in the fabric...much like a run in your stockings. So, if you sewing on knits, the needles will be labeled knit or ball point. I love Schmetz, they sent me a HUGH needle for demonstration in my classes.
So good to know! Thank you!
Aww Xander he was sooo excite about his lunch box and his truck and tweo little toys he has the mosy wonderful smile!!! All your fabice is beautiful and the dress you were wearing!!! Don't worry about your house its you and your family we here to see!!! Thank you for sharing God Bless hugs Liz...
Thank you 🤗
@@theMennoniteMom You are very welcome! God Bless hugs Liz.
I’m not Mennonite (I’m Catholic) but Mennonites fascinate me. I’ve been to mount hope fabric and it was a lovely shop, I got some fabric to make a dress, it is really good quality for much cheaper than Joann’s!
This is dangerous territory for me, I am a self proclaimed fabric hoarder. Mt. Hope is one of the online fabric stores where I enjoy shopping, Good's Store and Gehman's Country Fabrics are two others. I have bought fabric on Etsy but find the fabrics on there to sometimes be a little pricey. Anyway, I'll see you tomorrow at 7:00. This should be fun! God Bless and have a great day! Stay safe!
Lol. Sounds like you've got your bases covered!
I'm buying nice fabric since beeing a teenager. That is 35 years ago. I'm still not fabric resistant🤪
I know I have said this before but I have to say it again. Xander is so precious. He is also your twin and in this video it is so clear. You are doing a great job Mama.
Aww thanks. Lol
What pretty fabrics! I haven't sewed since junior high, but we have a sewing machine and my husband recently got it out for our daughter to learn. We'll have to check out your "How to sew a cape dress" video.
I hope your family is doing well, and that all these renovations come together and finish soon. It is tough to be living with things not put together. Two years ago we started redoing our kitchen, and there's a little left to do (nothing major) but when it was all apart and I had to wash dishes in the tub, it really shows how blessed we are...and I was ever so grateful to get it back together. Even now, as I type this out, I am thankful that I am so blessed. 😊
Have a wonderful weekend!
I'll bet! I'm dreading not having a sink!!
He is just precious, so cute!
Love how happy Zander is all of the time. He is 1 cute little boy.U have a beautiful family .
Thank you 😊
Lovely video 👍🏼
What a little sunshine Zander is🥰
This was such a great help to me. I dress conservative and always wanted more a Mennonite styled simple dress. Your help lead me to patterns I can make for me, that reflect my style and yet I don't feel like I am ripping off the Mennonite community. Happy Happy!!
Cheers! And you're welcome to wear our style. We aren't offended
@@theMennoniteMom THANK YOU!!! how very kind that is!
I love and enjoy all the wonderful things you do!! Such an inspiration to me!! Wonderful family!!
Thank you!!
Of course there's school at home, it used to be homeschool, but now it's covid zoom school.😉
Honestly though, he's such a wonderful blessing. He's a human all his own, frustration some moments with all changes but an absolute bundle of joy like this video.
I love tuning in to y'all.
You and Nolan are so supportive of one another such a blessing to Xander. Really, gives him a great example of love and family life, how God intended. So beautiful, your mom and dad and the loving they put on y'all. Your mama even bring supper by during Reno. So very utterly blessed. Thanks so much for sharing your life with us.
Yes, so blessed. God bless you!
@@theMennoniteMom hope you and your mom hold tight to Jesus hand as the human Drs walk y'all through this growth on her kidney. Y'all remember there's the Great Pysician y'all have and some human physicians have and others of them don't.
Be in prayer that God uses this growth for His kingdom growth. As y'all walk through it with Him eyes will be watching eyes who don't know Him but might come to as y'all journey this path.
Love you and take care of yourself too.
Yay for mt.hope fabrics...great store..super people. From the same church I attend.only about 15 min. From my house...😊
Zander makes me smile every time I see him......He always seems to be happy.... Everything seems to bring him joy. Thank you for being great parents. That is what makes him so happy.
Thanks for sharing.
Your son is so precious! His smile just lights up his face. Those fabrics are gorgeous!
That fabric store is only an hour's drive from me, and it's on my list to get there! Thanks for sharing. 👍🏼😊
Xander is such a perfect mix of you and Nolan. He is the most adorable little man.
thank you! (:
THANK YOU for the fabric store recommendation, and discount code! I was going to check with Mt. Hope today, as I am doing some projects with knit fabric, and had looked at various pieces that I thought would be perfect from them earlier. So, YAY, on my first order I used your code! SO excited!!! THANK YOU!
Yay! Happy for you!
Xander has the BEST smile! The sleeves on your dress are very pretty with the lace trim.
Thank you so much!
Your son’s smile is so cute and cheesy!
This is awesome I cannot wait. Glad to see a contemporary simple cape pattern. The Friends patterns tend to be more complex or are specific dress to church. And the Holdemen Mennonites do have simple styles and some complex. The sleeves are lovely. This is great. Thank you for posting this video.
Hope it works for you!
Loved the material of ur dress and the beautiful crossover cut of the sleeves...im hoping to find someone in england to make me one with cotton fabric for my birthday..brown courderey skirt with blouse part yellow floral on a white background..i think the style is so modest which is so very unusual today to see women dressed modestly..which is something my mum taught me..God Bless u nd urs Janine1🌸🌼
Zander is absolutely adorable!!!! His vocabulary amazes me as well as bike riding!! I placed a small order from the fabric store. I bought their dishcloths which I love and will share with friends at Christmas time!!!
cheers! glad you saw something you liked!
Goodness, Xander is so stinking cute! His excitement is contagious!
Gotta get me some stretch needles! great video loves these ones!!!
That blue stripe is my personal favorite, and you are *rockin' that coral dress, Jeannine!
Hi Jeannine. My apologies for spelling your name incorrectly in my previous comments. Love your new dress, it suits you very much.. Gorgeous Xander, what a. gift he is. Was. going to explain what stretch needles are but I see a number of others have already done that! What a lovely community of followers you have.Take care. Hugs from Sth Aust. 🌼
Yes everyone is so Helpful! Thanks so much!
I have this pattern and I love it!!! I have sewn a lot of dresses with this pattern and I highly recommend it!!
Awesome! I have been wanting to sew some very simple and conservative dresses. I will wear sweat pants when I’m home cleaning but I want to wear pretty dresses when I leave my house. The Lord has impressed me to do that.
I bought the biggest size of sew basic adult dresses and thanks ever so much for telling us about mthopefabrics, their prices are so affordable and are perfectly suited for my price range. 🤗
Yay! Hope it works for you!
Your home is a journey, it’s not about the destination, though as you wrap up some of the more major projects it will feel great I’m sure😃👍🏼❤️. There will always be things to do but they will hopefully be in smaller bit size-:). You home is coming along beautifully, thank you for your kindness in bringing us along😃👍🏼❤️ Blessings all the way from Oregon. Have not caught up in bit, little Zander is growing❤️
I have used that pattern for awhile now and I love it. It is a good basic dress that you can change up however you like. You told us where to get fabric, where to get the pattern but where do you get the friend to help us sew? LOL. Just kidding. Zander is adorable!
LOL, that's funny. friends for sale! LOL
OMG do you remember the fabric outlet in lemoyne? They had a great .99 cent/yard fabric and cheapo patterns. I loved how that store smelled and sticking my arm into the enormous button bucket.
Hi, Jeannine! Thanks for the video. I can't wait to see how all the renovations come out. I hope you're all happy and well!
Thank you for making this video. I'm going to go check into the prices of fabrics at the Mt. Hope page. I want to make more of my family's clothing but fabric is so expensive that for all of us, it's cheaper to buy the actual item rather than make it. But I just don't like how immodest even the little girl's dresses are these days. I'll head right over to their site, and I'm always up for other suggestions as well. :)
Very helpful! Thank you! Enjoyed seeing Zander so happy & surprised at his gifts!
Those fabrics are beautiful! Zander is so cute & I love how excited he was to get those surprises!
Friend’s patters and candle on the hill both have cape dress patterns (I make the sleeves a lot less puffy though.
so cute - your house is so beautiful and big wow!
If I could remember how to work a sewing machine I'd love to try out the dress patterns. I'm just being honest . Love your videos. I'm very impressed by your son's ability to recognize and tell you what the toys were.
It's just like riding a bicycle-you never forget !! It will all come back to you . Start out with something easy like a pillowcase and before you know it you'll be "whipping up" a new dress!!
Lol Little Xander is such a little cutie pie. He says, heck with the hat and gloves, bring on the toys!!! Lol thanks for sharin the video with all of us Jeanine. God loves you and your family. God bless you all.
yes, the toys! LOL thanks for being here
the Mennonite Mom you are welcome. ❤️
I want to send Zander something just to see him open it! I absolutely love seeing his amazement with everything!!
(: I don't always get to film his mail gifts, but it is so nice when people send things. He greatly enjoys it. (but he has enough toys for sure!) LOL
Hi Jeanine! I used to live close to Mt. Hope in Ohio and have been to this store many times. They have a great selection. How great that you get your fabric there! I love your channel and look forward to more episodes on your home Reno! God bless!
Thanks so much!
Hello there my friend!! Xander was so happy to get those cute gifts!! He sure knows his trucks and equipment! So cute as always!! Just think of the remodel as one day closer to the end and to enjoy all the hard work it took to get it there. The dress you have on is so pretty and the sleeves are a very adorable touch ! Love the color!! I also Love the other fabrics you picked out. Can't wait to see them on you when they are finished. Loved the lunch box so cute!!! Sending Love and Light to you and the family!! Hugs from Ephrata!💓😘🙏
Thank you so much! (: it was a fun box to open!
Zander is so cute! Wow, what beautiful vibrant colors you picked! I personally go for the vibrant colors myself for spring and summer then I kick it in to the navy, burgundy, dark blue green and black for the fall, winter months 😊 I can’t wait to see the home renovation work being done! 😊
thank you. I like darker colors as well, but I look terrible in them!
Hi Janine lovely to see you and Xander today I’m sitting here with a smile on my face after watching Xander open his lunch box after you had packed his lunch in it for him , that was such a wonderful idea. Loved the materials and the dress you wore really suits you, the sleeves are so pretty. The house is certainly coming along and before you know it you will be sitting in a comfy chair enjoying it. I’m just going to feed the Hedgehogs 🦔 now and the stray cat they are both waiting.
Take care little family and keep safe, God Bless 🤗
you have a hedge hog?!! aww! so adorable!!
the Mennonite Mom
Hi Janine I get between 2 or 4 each night, and I have just put their new home amongst the bushes ready for them to hibernate. I watch them most nights, I never get bored with their antics. 🦔🦔🦔Take care ☺️
@@mollystreeter5438 that's so awesome!
Those are beautiful fabrics! I wish I live locally to that but I would probably be in trouble if I did.
Thank you so much for making this video! I’ve been a follower of Jesus for 14 years and really struggled to find a church with a same beliefs. We’ve homeschooled using Rod and Staff curriculum for 12 years. Rod and Staff became my mentor. We wanted to attend a conservative Mennonite church but didn’t have any in our area. Oddly enough thanks to covid 19 we were able to begin watching a conservative Mennonite church about an hour away from us. What a change it has made in our life! We want to begin attending the church in person so I’ve been pray for the Lord to help me find a pattern and fabric to make dresses like you wear. I feel like this video is an answer to my pray! Thank you so much!!!!
That's wonderful! But just know, you'll be quite welcome, no conservative dress needed
Oh my, I just love lil Zander! He makes smile big 😀 Love all of you new fabric, and your new dress. Can hardly wait to see more progress on your house. God bless and have a beautiful day!
Thank you! I can't wait till it's finished!
This was awesome. I already have fabric in my basket. Like I need more, I have a hoarders room of fabric and yarn.
😅
Set my reminder!! Love the colors, and sewing! ❤ I practically need a seat belt to contain my excitement. 😃 I used to sew all of my clothes...my "itch" to sew is back!
Lol. Yay!!!
I absolutely love the sleeve detail of the dress you're wearing!!
Thank you!!
It's a variation of the "tulip sleeve"
Your little boy is so precious!
I'm inspired to make a dress now, my friend! Loved the video, love that last of the 3 fabrics, those bright colors truly look phenomenal on you! And Xander's antics are adorable!
Thanks so much 😊
Thanks so much for the fabric and patterns tips! And the footage of Xander x
I really like the tulip style sleeves that you have on your dress!
Thank you!!
His reaction🥰 my girls act the same way over their toys🥰melts my heart ❤️
Zander is ADORABLE! I live about 50 miles from Mt. Hope.
Re the needle for stretch fabric, bought some this summer and I was told it has a sharper finer point so there is less pulling and bunching of the fabric by the needle. Didn't see a difference with the ones I got, but a real sewer probably would. Think stretchy fabric is just over my head. Loved the Xander intro. He is such a presh. Love the miniature trucks, too and who doesn't love Curious George???? Not something one expects to find at a fabric store! Did you slip up and let out that there is a bun in the oven? Saving a hat that is too small? Guess we will find out when you are ready. Pretty choice of fabrics you made. Love almost all florals. That floral you picked would look great as a dress, upholstery, bedspread, you name it! So happy for the progress on the exterior siding. Must be so exciting! Nolan must breathe a "Thank you, God" every time he sees the bunch of men tackling a job he thought he might be doing himself! Has Xander been "supervising" the workers? Have a great week! Look forward to next weeks video.
Yes, Nolan is so ready for it all to be finished! It was a fun box to open! (:
I love the first and second fabric it's really cute
Xander is so precious! I need a new pattern so I may check these out and see how crazy shipping is to Canada! Thanks for the info! 😀
If the shipping is too much, they might offer a digital version, where you can download it to a jump drive and either print on a home printer, or take it to a professional print shop!
Thanks! I've been wanting a new pattern! Love seeing the remodeling ...Great job!
hmm... I caught you saying about saving the hat for..... since it didnt quite fit Xander. Now can we get excited???? At any rate Xander is beyond cute. He is funny, and very personable for his young age. His smile and antics every video is so adorable . And he knew each truck and what is was before it was even fully unwrapped! Oh and when he said I'm so "cited" I melted.
yes, he was 'cited'. lol. No bun in the oven yet! I wish I could order one here without it needing to go in the oven first. LOL
Zander (Xander ?) Is cute as a button...much like his momma. LOL, I had to rewind and look for the "tail." I lived next door to a Mennonite church/school. I always enjoyed seeing the glorious cape dress colors. Love your new dress, especially the cute white trim on the sleeves. Someone has some sewing skills!
that's my friend. (: she's been helping me make dresses as it's just not my first love. (: she does a great job!
Thank you Jeannine for this great video. I will be sure to check out the fabric link. I have the Etsy shop as my favorite though I still have yet to buy a pattern. Have a blessed week!
Loved your video! I always look forward to your videos they brighten my day!
Zander is such a little heartbreaker 💙💙💙 thank you for sharing.
I love your channel! I love Zander's excitement!!
Thank you so much for this... I contacted mhopefabric.com and samples are coming!!! Yey!
Xander cracks me up. 🤣 🤣 I like all that fabric you picked out, especially that first one.
Thank you!
Love your beautiful dress! Xander is just adorable too! Be well and have a fantastic weekend and week ahead.
Thank you! You too!
I really love your choices of fabric!! Also I keep looking at the coral fabric like the dress you have on, I think it looks so dressy!
thank you! (:
Xander is growing so fast...Good job on your video today, cutie! Beautiful fabrics, and the dress you’re wearing in the video is gorgeous! The sleeves and the color / print.
Thank you so much 🤗
I have the same fabric as the dress you're wearing. Haven't gotten it made up yet but you look so pretty in it!! Got it from Mt. Hope as well! 😊
very cool! (: It's super comfy!
“Stretch” needles are for double knit or non-woven polyester fabrics. They are ballpoints instead of sharps & don’t pierce holes in polyester fabrics. “Sharps” are needles for woven fabrics.
I don't sew but I'm always excited to see your videos :-)
For dresses I need a tailor.
Zander is the most PRECIOUS little thing!!! 💙
Love that first one!
I so can't wait for this 💗😁 I'm practically doing jumping jacks!
Yay!!!
I am looking forward to this one too. I have my sewing machine in the shop for a regular tune up and then I will be ready to start sewing in the evening after dinner. I may not like sewing, but I do like modest dresses!
Oh the curious George lunch box!! our son now 21 carried one just like that for years. He wanted to carry it til grade 12 (for fun) he almost made it. we homeschooled the last couple years of high school, but it was used in decorating at his graduation party!!
That's great! Lol
Love all the fabric!! Zander is so cute!
Stretch needles ( knit needles) are ballpoint tip. They separate and sew between fibers instead of piercing like regular needles for wovens. Regular needles will snag knit fabric.
Fabricmartfabrics over in Sinking Springs has a lot of nice fabrics.
Beautiful fabric and love the dress you're wearing! Suits you perfectly ❤
Thank you so much!
Thank You for the information
Your son is gorgeous and you are very kind mum with all your heart I like that greetings from Austria
Thank you so much!
Sandwiches always taste better out of a lunch box ! He is the cutest !
yes! I have found a new trick to get him to eat them! LOL
My sincerest condolences on having renovations to your kitchen. The worst 😫
😹 I know that it will all look much better when it gets finalized 💖
thank you! (:
Love your choices of fabric, cute Zander, so excited
Awww so excited and happy for you. Beautiful fabric.
"No school at home",says Zander. If only he realized how much he has learned and been taught at home already !!
Lol, well thank you!
Sorry! I thought when I saw the thumbnail last night that this was a new business venture. Thats why i said I was so happy for you. Lol I'm sure that was confusing. I have ordered from Mt. Hope before and they have some beautiful fabrics. Thanks for sharing.
Lol, no worries! No, not my business
Your little guy is such a ham! Makes me miss my far away grandkids😊 We have a Xander, too!
This is perfect! I have been looking for some new fabric for a dress I'm planning to sew so will definitely make sure to check the shop out!
