Very cute fabrics Angela!
Hi Michelle! Thank you! 😊
Love the fabrics! I used a free pattern Mari mentioned in her Sew Frugal video in March 2024. It goes all the way up to a size 12 and is super cute and easy to sew. It doesn’t have pockets included, but easy enough to add those yourself.
Sounds perfect!! I’ll have to check it out. Thanks for sharing! 💕
Ponte knit! 😊
Perfect!
I’d make this pattern with a lightweight wool in anticipation of cooler weather! Certain wools are great for year-round too. I like to line my wool, too, so it would be helpful if the pattern already included that. 😂 Less thinking on my part. 😘
Wool would be great! I took a peek at the pattern and the coat IS lined!!
My Dress a Girl Around the World ambassador has a pattern we copy that is a peasant style with an elastic neckline. I use contrast fabric for the raglan short sleeve and 2 pockets. Very cute & fast. She collects dresses year-round. Love to be involved with this organization. ❤
That's so awesome and the dresses sound really cute! Thanks for sharing your experience. 💕
Cute fabrics! The pink and the black is fabulous! My video for the vlogger tour is going to be quick reviews of 6 different patterns so that has been really fun! In terms of the trim, I’m using some bits of lighter fabric but I wouldn’t use a solid white bottom ruffle because I think it could get dingy quickly. I vote pink ruffles for everyone! Haha
Hi Erin! Love your idea to do pattern reviews, how helpful that will be! Thank you so much for the input on a white ruffle, had never thought about it getting dirty easily. Likely gonna go with pink for everyone (love it, lol). Keep it simple and easy. Hope you have a great week ahead!
I am using McCalls Stitch Save # 2004 copyright 1999. It is an adorable pattern and it is SO EASY to make it into a lined or even reversible dress. I wish they would bring it back into the catalogs. LOVE the pattern you are using and your fabrics are AWESOME
Your pattern is so cute!! I agree - wish they would bring it back. Thanks so much for stopping by, Becky!
I've made it 4 times-out of a "silky" with a sueded poly edging and cuffs, a silky poly twill, and georgette...but after hearing you read the suggested fabrics, I think I need to dig it out and do it in a cozier fabric for the upcoming season...need to check the stash Thanks for the inspo
Wow! What a glowing recommendation for this pattern! Thanks for sharing!
Polar fleece
Yes!!
Love the patterns you picked up. And so sorry, please feel free to share your PDAG plans 😊
Thanks, Mari! No worries, all good. I'll definitely be posting about them soon. Excited to be a part. 😊
Good looking patterns, Angela! That skirt pattern really kicks! That might be a good one for me to try. With the right fabric, I might be able to wear it to church; we’re pretty casual. 😊
Hi, Lynn! That sounds awesome! Would love to hear how it turns out for you if you end up making it. 😀
Hi Angela - I have also bought the cargo skirt pattern. I just love the idea of all those pockets
Hi Becky, absolutely! Would love to hear how it turns out once you sew it up!
Hi Angela! Cool books! Roman numerals are a challenge for me too. I remember it some from school way back when, but it takes me a while to think it thru and I probably get it wrong 😂
Right?? I'm so glad we have "regular" numbers now. 😂😂😂
I think a linen would look nice for the jacket. I agree with the commenter before me that a rayon challis would look nice for the dress. Wow, just remembering those long jackets from the 90s lol.
I totally agree! Yes, still love those 90s fashions. 😄😄😄
I suppose it depends on the view one is making. A rayon challis for the dress might be nice. 😘
I think so too!
I loved looking at your new/old Swiss Family Robinson book was indeed a series of classics reprints....my family had a bunch of them when I was a kid in the 60's. It might have been a subscription type thing. I think we kept ours on the shelf with their jackets on, that was so long ago!! I used to have a couple of favorite used book stores nearby that had my card and preferences on file. I would get a phone call if any Jack London, Robert Louis Stevenson (and a few others), or Modern Library Editions came into the shop. I have since downsized my books and have kept only the JL (which is pretty nearly complete) and my Alistair MacLean paperbacks (ditto). Book Nerd alert! 😁
I'm so happy you enjoyed the book segment! And, it's nice to know I'm in good company. ☺️ #BookNerd
I live in Northern Kentucky, in Erlanger. Where is the antique/thrift shop?
It's Motley Home in Burlington. There's a link to their Facebook in the video description. 😊
@@JustMeAndMyFabric Sorry, I didn't look. I looked online and finally found something. I'll check to see if it's the same as your link.
@@dianemontavon5670. No worries! Just wanted to make sure you knew how to find them. Would love to hear if you end up visiting them or not, and what you think.
the material is beautiful I would to have a few yards
Isn't it?! Looks like they are getting low, from what I could see on the listing. So you might pop over to Surge Fabrics to take a look (link in video description).
View A with the B length. I think rayon twill would be so nice.
Love it!
I would make it out of challis fabric to have a soft flowing skirt. I really like that pattern.
Beautiful!
Voila cotton but with summer coming to an end I’m not sure love the pattern!
@@juliehenze1103 Good choice and good point!
I would like to do a capsule wardrobe but right now I don't have enough time
I totally can relate to that! Part of the fun of this project for me was the planning itself. Then I took my time making all the items (or most of them at least) over the course of the year. Perhaps you can spend some time just dreaming of what you'll make later. I just love doing that and it's a small way of keeping the creativity alive. Thank you so much for watching this video and commenting. I appreciate you!
Nice picks ,also love color of your hair
Thank you so much! I appreciate your sweet comment! 💕
Thank you for the shout out. Love your fabric, it's stunning.
You are so welcome! Thanks for stopping by, hope you have a great weekend!
Angela your skirt looks awesome! I love it with the deep green tank. I just may have to get that pattern.
Thank you so much! 😘 🙌🏻 I appreciate your sweet comment! I'll be excited to wear it the first time. Hope you have a great weekend!
Hi Angela, I love your skirt! The fabric is so pretty 🤩. I’ve never sewn a skirt like this 😮.
Thank you! 😊 I think this was my first time doing that drawstring technique. I was somewhat concerned at first but that part was very easy, as it turns out. Thanks so much for watching and commenting. Hope you have a great week!
The skirt is such a nice addition to your wardrobe! I love the combinations you came up with! Love the new patterns.
Hi Katinka! Thank you so much. I appreciate your kind comment and hope you have a great weekend!
I love the skirt and all the combinations are great.
Thanks so much, Diane!
Fabric Warehouse Direct has a poly knit crepe that is a really nice fabric. I have some in royal blue and this would be beautiful in that fabric.
Nice! I’ve had good fabric from them too!
I would love to find something that sparkles
Love it!
Looks like a stable knit is required, so a stretch sateen would be nice too. Especially for a fancier event the shine would be nice. I would call this a cocktail dress.
Elegant!!
I used cotton and it was terrible.
Oh no! So sorry to hear this!
Hi Angela! Your hoodie turned out so good! I love the idea of a woven hoodie cardigan. So nice that you have all of your changes on the pattern pieces so you will be all ready to go if you want to make it again and it will surely go much quicker next time. Your skirt fabric is BEAUTIFUL!!
Hi Michelle! Thank you so much! ☺️ I can definitely see making this pattern again, and maybe out of something with heavier weight to it. Can't wait to dig in to the skirt. Started tracing the pattern this evening! Thanks so much for your sweet comment! 💕
I would fold it over only because that lovely color can be worn in a venue where youre not just casually dressed. I actually like the slightly contrasting serger thread but with it folded down you'll get a little more versatility from it? Either way is fine though.
Hi there! Thank you so much for you input, greatly appreciated! I tend to agree with you and I'll have the final reveal this coming Friday (taking some needed time away right now). Thanks again for watching and commenting! 🙌🏻 ☺️ 💕
Its more stylish and seems like it would lie more flat on your head and not have a pointy vibe from the center seam. ❤
💯
Ramie or banana silk.
How perfect!
I have some beautiful embroidered netting and this pattern. I know, I’m a rebel. I’m planning to make it as a wedding gift as a part of a honeymoon lingerie set. 😘
That sounds lovely!
Georgette would be so pretty. And great for a summer topper.
Agreed!
Definitely rayon challis... boho print...
Yes! Perfect!
