    Your sewing skills and ability to fit your shape are simply amazing. But what I find the most inspiring is your ability to choose the PERFECT fabric/print for every pattern. That only comes with years of experience and an exceptional eye for design. Just gorgeous. Thanks for sharing this lovely year of makes. 💚💚💚

    Very inspiring in many ways. Your round up gave some nice tips, indirectly 😀. I have limited time to sew. What I especially keyed in on, is that you use patterns that you’ve already fitted, several times, or you do a “mash-up”. So, your wardrobe still has variety and you can focus on making the garments rather than fitting all the time. I can make better use of the time I have by imitating this idea. Thank you!

    • @LiftingPinsandNeedles

    • @LiftingPinsandNeedles
      @LiftingPinsandNeedles  5 років тому

      I’d never want anyone to feel slow, especially comparing to what I do. The difference is that this is my job. I do this dawn to dusk basically. The way I sew is not fast. I take multiple extra steps and precautions in all stages of my projects and am never ever rushing anything. I never take a break. So please I’d love you to feel great about your sewing. If my channel wasn’t my job, I’d probably make only 2-3 pieces a month only.

    This was brilliant. What a great idea to do a round-up of your sewing for the year. I'm not surprised that the big4/simplicity got more views; their price point is perfect for those who are new to sewing or just prefer them over the indie patterns. And as the big4 use the same block to create newer patterns - once you know what changes you usually make, it's easy to carry them over to their other patterns.
    This was really fun to watch. You start from simpler makes and move on to more statement pieces (and lovelier fabric choices!). I gravitate to the quirkier/statement pieces more even though my wardrobe needs more of the staples 😆. I should really get cracking on my rhapsody pattern!

    • @LiftingPinsandNeedles
      @LiftingPinsandNeedles  5 років тому

      I also see why the big 4 videos are viewed more. I wish they were accesible to me. The few I have have been sent to me by generous friends in the US. Mc Calls has pdf options for some of them but the price for these is almos $14 and they never go on sale. This makes these even more pricey than the indie patterns. I’ve had great results so far and love the diagrams in the instructions too. I know my channel would grow more if I highlighted big 4 patterns more often. Ah well, indie pdfs are the ones accesible to me. I also need the basic staples but they are no fun to sew right? Thanks for watching 😃.

    • @LiftingPinsandNeedles

      It’s a combination of shipping fees and HUGE import fees. I live in Brazil and they’ll tax you the same amount the item is worth plus the same shipping you already paid. It’s really impossible to get things shipped from overseas due to the price. Indies end up being cheaper and especially during sales.

    Would you be able to show how to make a puffer jacket with a hood and pockets?

      Hi Francine. I live in hot tropical weather (Brazil) year round and the style you mention would not fit my lifestyle not would I find the right type of fabric. I can show a jacket with pockets and hood but not in puffer material. My son would like a lighter jacket this year. Thanks for watching.

    Hi there luv your work! Your instruction is great for us who would luv to be as good as you! Do you agree when sewing with linen you should go down in size for pants due to stretch?
