    Casey, these projects turned out beautifully. What I appreciate the most about your video is your “out loud” thinking and problem solving. We may not be making a top from a crocheted pillow case, but we will all certainly come up against a situation that needs a bit of finesse to get it the way we want. It’s such an important skill to have. I recently “ruined” a dress (the serger took a bite out of the skirt 😬 when I was finishing the seams. ) I repaired the tear and then created patch pockets to cover it up. Design detail!😂 The dress looks fantastic with the pockets.

      The pillowcase top looks great with your jeans, not sure why I don’t really like it with linen pants.
      🤔 Not enough color contrast??
      🤔Legs too wide??
      Just like the Jean look much better. 🙂Really like the white tank with the linen pants, so I think it’s more the color contrast I like with the jeans.

    I was refashioning a pair of linen pants to shorts and initially ii was too small and I threw it to the side. The material was a vertical stripe and I realized I could add a few extra inches to the sides (not noticeable) and covered with patch pockets from extra. I love them

    The DIY Designer bought her crochet on Amazon. Which means it was produce from unfair labor and trade practices. Crochet can’t be machine made. Bravo to you for thrifting. It was clearly homemade and you upcycling it is keeping if from the landfill. It’s a beautiful top and is sustainable.

    Hi Casey! What a great video! Love the little crochet crop top you made from pillowcases!!! I would have never thought of doing that. I was also surprised that it didn’t unravel after you started cutting it up. Very cute!! The wide leg pants come out really nice too. I’m seeing more and more wide leg pants. I’d like to try making a pair but I’m very petite overall, weight and height. I guess I need to ponder it for a while longer. Thanks again for sharing your talent with us. 😊

    Ugh I love those pants, and the top, so so cute! I've acually boughten a couple pairs a lot like those, but I've been teaching my 7 yr old how to do laundry, and forgot ide tossed my pants in the hamper, and he accidentally washed and dried them, they just blended in with everything and i didn't notice them while helping him..anyways, both pairs, shrunk, so now I'm trying to figure out how I can combine the two so least one pair are long enough for me again, it's been a pain trying to decide how ill lengthen the one pair. Being 5'9,it can be difficult finding pants long enough but yet small enough in the waist. Ive ended up basically altering every pair of pants I get. But you make me really wish i had a sewing machine, and more so wish my Mama had taught me to sew. She always just did what ever clothing alters or skirts and dresses we wanted with just us watching her, never really got to acually use her sewing machine cus she didnt want us messing it up, being her only one she had. 6 girls we definitely would have destroyed it im sure. I sew everything by hand, and its so much more time consuming. But so far, it's always been way worth it. Idk, you really seem to know what your doing, got any tips for me for an easy simple way to lengthen wide leg pants like those? That can be done hand sewn?

    I would have found a light white cotton, washed it (to shrink) ironed it and cut out a lining for the sweet white short and voilà....They are not seethrough anymore 👍🏻🇳🇴

      I was considering that...they really are cute! Hate to not wear them!

    Has anyone tell you that every move you make is so graceful? I think you should sew to graceful music also! Maybe what I said is superfluous but I mean it. My daughter was like that when she was younger and figure skated to music. Love the linen you made the pants out of . I like the elastic idea - very practical. How did the visit with your aunt go? I shop thrift stores often - you never know what one can remake into a winner! Thanks again for your excellent tutoring. By the way, I forgot to mention I like your brothers music production.

      Thanks so much, Lavada! Visit with the aunt was great! And I am so proud of my brother--he is very talented!!

    I’m digging these pieces!!! After having put so much towards a video just to have it not work out, these are a win for you!!! Great video Casey!!! Btw, tmi, there is NO WAY I personally could go without a bra in public. Kids and age have removed that option for me 😜🤭but nippies should totally sponsor you!!!

      Thank youuuuuu!! I really am happy with the end result so the break was good for me i think! Glad I was able to give the projects more time. So funny about the nippies...I honestly got them for a little more nipple discretion when wearing a bra 🤣 then just started wearing them alone eventually, especially with athletic tanks. Nippies, sponsor me! I'm tryna sell these things! 🤣

    Just found you and love watching what you are making. I like the way you did the elastic. Could I do that to the back waist for too big jean waists?
    I have sewn for over 60 years! I love Pfaffs too.

      That might work, worth a try at least!

    Thanks for this video, I'm so glad I found your channel!! I'm learning so much from you. I know it's been a long time since this happened, but maybe those sheer white shorts could be dyed a darker color? How does that work with the thread & stitching used for construction, do you have any tips on that?

    • @PatternScout
      @PatternScout  Рік тому +1

      Yes! I actually thought about dyeing them, but probably a light or natural color. Since my thread is white and polyester, it probably wouldn't take the dye (the shorts are a linen blend I think). Thanks so much for watching! :)

    • @8squishyfishy8

      @@PatternScout awesome, that would probably work well. I actually just dyed a pair of wide leg linen pants this morning using Rit "tan", and they turned out perfectly. Now I'm planning to take in the waist a couple sizes down (also using your videos!!) 😊

    Wow! Amazing…very nice. Question. Do you trace your paper pattern pieces on to the fabric and the go back with rotary? Love the tip that you were going to hand stitch the rest of the invisible zipper…as a beginner…I would have tried to go with the machine. Thanks for keeping it real for us beginners!!!

    • @PatternScout
      @PatternScout  Рік тому +1

      Thank you, Jennifer! Most of the time I trace the pattern onto the fabric with my chaco liner (especially if I am working with limited fabric and want to get the most efficient layout of my pattern before cutting). I find hand stitching to be so efficient for little details like that--and it usually doesn't take as long as I expect it to! haha. Thanks so much for watching! :)

    That top came out amazing. I can't believe it didn't fray, does anyone know why it wouldn't?

    Love watching your channel. I notice you were using a rotary cutter, is you’re whole table self sealing, and if so where do you get them that large. I may just be looking in the wrong places.
    Keep the videos coming💕💕

      Thanks, Brenda! I bought that one at JoAnn Fabrics (they are usually rolled up near the patterns/sewing machines). I'm not positive that it is self-healing, though...but it works pretty well!

    This is a different topic but the pressing mat you have is on your cutting mat. Does it ever warp the cutting mat? I had a similar set up and my cutting mat would get warped.

    • @PatternScout
      @PatternScout  Рік тому

      That is a good question! No, it doesn't warp my cutting mat and I think it is because the pressing mat has a solid backing with a plastic exterior. So heat doesn't go all the way through the mat. It is a really great cutting mat and I wish it was easier to find in more stores! I'm thinking of trying to make one...
