🚨I do not sew on commission🚨 - Jak na to + styl
Young lady it is a Blessing to see someone so young keeping a skilled tradition alive. My mother was a Tailer. Thank you for sharing.
Absolutely love this video. Brought me way back. I made this exact dress in 1963 to my high school prom. I made it out of pink satin with a lace overlay that was scalloped on the bottom edge. The lace fabric was 48 in wide enabling me to use it over the entire skirt with the embroidery going up from hem. I made the jacket the same with scallop along the hem. I was so proud of this and loved it so much, I shortened the skirt at the waist bringing the scallop up to below my knees. Then added spaghetti straps to the strapless top and wore it for graduation. I was able to wear it to friends weddings that next couple years. I'm 79 now, have no idea what happened to it but seeing this video gave me warm fuzziness. Thank you and you looked fabulous. ❤
Beautiful!!!
Lovely
What a lovely memory...I can just picture the dress you made
That’s wonderful ! I was hoping you were going to say ‘I still have it ‘❤
@@scarletred8888 I wish I did too, but I have pics at least.
Love that old Kenmore. Just proves a seamstress doesn't need a new machine with all the fancy bells and whistles to make a beautiful creation.
Beautiful outfit. You are very talented. I’m 74 years young and you remind me of the skills and talent my mother had. She made clothing including winter coats for her four daughters. Today is actually the 13th anniversary of her passing. Was a wonderful treat to watch you at the sewing machine it was like watching her. Thank you 🙏 I hope you continue to go out and wish you much success.
A high school friend and I were talking about how it was when we were in high school back in the very early 70's. Our mothers made our clothes. We had a sewing chest at the house with extra fabric so when you needed something in a hurry you might be able to find some fabric and notions already on hand. It wasn't unusual for Mom to "run one up" a day or two before a special school event.
My mother and grandmother started teaching me to sew when I was ten by first pinning patterns to fabric. I first helped grandma make one of her bib aprons and was so proud of it. By the time I was in high school I made most of my skirts, tops and dress's. I made all my children's clothes until the boys got into zipper pants. Sears "tough skins" for boy's were indestructable. I couls not match that.
The dress is beautiful, and those gloves…wow. You look stunning.
And so clever to select a fabric that would still allow you to use your device
Thank you for using a vintage sewing machine too! Kudos!
Lovely project!!! You look divine, and your up-do hair was so elegant! You are a talented and beautiful lady--your sewing skills are SO impressive!!! My mom and my grandmother both sewed like you do--they made our outfits including coats!!! Such wonderful memories of all the sewing adventures we shared! Thank you for sharing your wonderful productions!
You have a real treasure in that Kenmore machine. Never let it go.
I have a 1970s Kenmore sewing machine, love it
My groom of two weeks gave me a sewing machine ( Designer) for our first Christmas together in 1979. I made both my younger sister’s wedding dresses, most of my maternity clothes, baby/toddler/up to about age ten when my daughter decided she wanted clothing from a store. Our Swiss exchange students silk sage prom dress, my mother of the bride in a dark brown silk, many chair/sofa covers and sun shades. I love coming up with an idea and making it happen.
This young woman has skilzzzzzzz.
I remember my mother making this exact pattern when I was in middle school. The dress was in peacock blue peau de soi and the jacket in matching velveteen. I’m a great grandmother now!!🎉
Beautiful!!
Oooo la la! You look like a French impressionist painting. Absolutely gorgeous! I am so happy that you finally went to a Frocktails party! You know you had a good time when you almost lose your voice the next day! LOL! Those poppy gloves are so creative and I love the touch of sequins that you added to enhance your natural sparkle! Thank you for sharing!
I read comments before watching ..

Very sweet outfit. Love it with the jacket too. Brings a nice balance to the whole silhouette and it’s a different one from most of what’s out there today. Very refreshing to see something different.
You are super talented. I love vintage the fabric is beautiful who would have guessed. It was the perfect choice love the dress
My mother had a seamstress and I remember this dress when I was a child. Mama was a mix of Elizabeth Taylor and Jackie Kennedy. Mama passed away 2yrs ago and was still very beautiful,a true Southern Belle. I also have the exact same sewing machine!
Wow your mom must’ve been so 😍 beautiful
The fabric is astonishingly beautiful just like the finished dress. I wish I could sew. You're very talented and have a good eye for Beauty. And you look gorgeous in it.
Oh my! You look lovely! How much fun. I’m 74. I wore dresses like that to dances and proms when I was young! Hugs, treen 💕💕💕
Oh wow! It's beautiful! Thanks for sharing! Hope you feel better!
You nailed the theme! The structure is divine
That dress is so beautiful. You look absolutely gorgeous in it. Thank you for sharing the process. Hope you had a great time at Frocktails
LOL time flies when you leave the house (so I hear... well done getting out, maybe someday I'll join you!)
This is super cute! I'm also in my sewing outfits for events era, it's nice to have something specific to wear things to. I hope you had a wonderful time
I like how you say, "Waspy Look"!!
I truly love your channel.
It is peaceful, respectful, wholesome.
Brautiful! I just love your sewing machine. Those ole workhorses are the best.
Soo beautiful!! The fabric, the sequins, the bow 🎀 I have this pattern in my stash to eventually dip my foot into trying a “wiggle dress” (as my hips are so much wider than my waist so I figured this silhouette would fit). I‘m so happy you made this pattern! 🩵
You will look amazing in it I’m sure!!! Everything you touch is gold
@@SewRenaaw thank you!! 🥹🥹🥹
Wonderful skills demonstrated here , lovely dress too, and brings back wonderful memories of sewing! I made most of my young son's Halloween costumes and school history costumes, decades ago... whatever he wanted, I made.
😂 I was thinking „oh you’ll be wearing a slip anyway“ just as it popped on the screen!!
Stunning. Gorgeous. Tasteful. Elegant. Talented! Beautiful job!❤
Oh my goodness!!! The dress is beautiful just like you!! Beautiful material, loved the poppies!!!! ❤️
I love it with the jacket. Wish the celebrities today would revisit this style!
❤ I just your show, when I saw the simplicity pattern I was back in high school home economics
Thank the memory.

My Southern Louisiana Grandmother had my dressess made because I was so skinny and I remember Simplicity in the 1960's. Wow, and today I am drawn to the vintage style. Thanks for this great video 👍🎉🤗💌
This dress is perfect on you. I never had the skills (or the passion) for sewing. It is a great talent to make your own dresses.
Wow! I am just blown away by your talent. My mother was a top class seamstress, but sadly I’m not. My forte is quilting and embroidery but I would give anything to have a hundredth of your talent. You are an exceptionally gifted woman. God bless.
That fabric was an inspired choice!And you made excellent use of it. The complete outfit is gorgeous! Love the poppies on the gloves, and the buttoned-back of the bolero. So glad you had a great time at Frocktails!
Beautiful dress - what a talented seamstress you are!!! 🥰
Wow!!! What a beautiful dress. Very nice video showcasing your extraordinary talent 😊
You picked a beautiful classic dress. Lovely.
The dress is awesome. You have good eye putting different patterns together. ❤❤
I remember simplicity and butterick patterns and making clothes for myself oh so long ago. Your work is beautifully done.
Amazing dress, I love it! You’re brilliant and beautiful. ❤️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🏆
The dress is beautiful and not too tight it fits perfectly.
You look perfectly beautiful in your very lovely gown. ❤
