Hi everyone, what did you think of today's project? I hope this inspired some beginners out there to try making this dress! Today's video is extra long as I wanted to show you every step. Hope you enjoyed! 😊🌸
This dress is gorgeous on you. I really like the tip you gave on why the corner with your strap wasn't right. That is something a beginner would likely have a hard time figuring out.
Great job! To make the strap neater you could have turned it inside out and sewed the strap on from the inside to avoid top stitching. Also you could probably shorten the bodice a little too to get rid of the bunching at the waist. Looks great still!
I recently bought a walking foot that has a cutting blade on it. Pair that with the overlock stitch on a regular sewing machine, and it’s supposed to be like a surger . I haven’t tried it yet, but today I’ll try it on a dress I’m making. Note: If it doesn’t work out I’ll simply use an overlock stitch close to the edge like I’ve been doing.
Oh that's great, I've never heard if a walking foot with a blade but it seems like a great idea! An overlock stitch is a great serger alternative, that is what I used for years before I recently bought my serger. Thanks for watching!
Love the dress! Thanks for sharing. When I finally get a serger I'll probably serge everything, too...but seam finishing is generally not considered necessary for a lined garment. Just thought I'd mention for newbies.
When I make dresses I always try to sew a lining in it, even if the pattern doesn’t call for it. The reason I do that is because I’ve noticed that a lot of females don’t wear slips. I was raised to wear a slip with my dresses, or skirts. To me a dress without a slip makes it look unfinished, and many times tacky.
Great question! It isn't always necessary to finish enclosed seams, but i do tend to finish all my seams so that they will last longer (especially if the fabric loves to fray!) Plus, I was just excited to use my new serger! 😊

@@MadeByMelm Well, I’ll see if it really works. I can see the blade, but haven’t tried it yet.
This dress is gorgeous! I sew a lot for my toddlers, but I’m wanting to do more for myself. I think I’m going to buy this pattern
Thank you very much! I hope you love the pattern and have fun making it! 😊

It definitely feels nice to take the time and add a lining, the finished result feels very beautiful 😊
Why do you serge your enclosed seams?
Great question! It isn't always necessary to finish enclosed seams, but i do tend to finish all my seams so that they will last longer (especially if the fabric loves to fray!) Plus, I was just excited to use my new serger! 😊
