    Great choices for basics in your wardrobe! One note, I have made one garment from Unfettered Patterns and their instructions are extremely limited. I would say you need some sewing experience to use them, but with the knit cardigan, it would probably go well. Happy sewing! 💖

    • @whatbecsews
      @whatbecsews  Před 4 měsíci

      Thank you, yeah I am not too worried about the instructions, as I don’t tend to follow them 🙈 however when I review I will note this because most people are good and follow them 😂 x

    I am a relative beginner Bec and so appreciate your tips on the Pomegranate skirt. I have that pattern and had thought of pairing it with a heavier fabric but maybe that's why I've never been drawn to skirts since I have a larger body. I think now I'll try it with a viscose and see how I feel about wearing a skirt. I do have Mary Ellen's press which I use for quilting so might try that. Thanks. xx Karen

    • @whatbecsews
      @whatbecsews  Před 4 měsíci +1

      I’m pleased this tip helped, the starch spray will make it so much easier to work with, also when your sewing, if you have a walking foot that will help.

    Good advice on Munro! I’ve just thrown that pattern away and the boat neck because of the arms. I said I’d never try again but maybe I need to do the armholes widening!

    • @whatbecsews
      @whatbecsews  Před 4 měsíci

      Honestly just widen the arms and make sure it’s a stretchy fabric - viscose jersey works well and they are really lovely. Quick sews too 😊 x

    Oooh I like your Sabina with the cardi. Good look. I have made it and I don’t like mine I feel swamped in it. Maybe I should try a different fabric. I’m not sure if it was my pattern but I found the pocket notches missing. I worked it out but they were missing.

    • @whatbecsews
      @whatbecsews  Před 4 měsíci

      Yeah, it took me a while to decide if I liked it and certainly playing with styling, shorten it slight, that might work, also maybe eliminate the pockets, use the back twice it would remove some of the bulk x

    I have made the Hannah slip dress by Mood Fabrics-- their instructions are usually a little lackluster, but this one was relatively ok. The bias cut is hard to do, but not impossible, for a beginner like me. I do recommend that beginners stick to cotton voile and not something slippery for this one-- I had an AWFUL time with the silk I chose, and I completely ruined it IMO. Also, the straps aren't adjustable, so make sure you pin and mark where to cut them for your personal preference.

    • @whatbecsews
      @whatbecsews  Před 4 měsíci +1

      Thank you for the tip, how did you find the facing? I’m thinking of lengthening it? X

    • @jeanlinder1310
      @jeanlinder1310 Před 4 měsíci

      @@whatbecsews Might be a good idea to do that. If you're using a floppy fabric, tack it down a bit more than the directions say to-- I tried to also sew the facing by stitching in the ditch down the side seams (mine didn't match, so it made it worse, but in theory it should work).

    Really enjoyed this and will look at some of the links. I particularly like the cardigan. I also have plans to make the Little Pomegranite skirt for the summer. My advice with the Tessuti monroe turtleneck is to use a very stretchy material. I tried making it in a french terry and it didn't work. Fortunately I only made the neck collar, tried it on and couldn't get it over my head (which is small!) Next time I will use a knit with much more stretch.

    • @whatbecsews
      @whatbecsews  Před 4 měsíci

      I agree the more stretch the better, I widened the arm holes though just to make that more comfortable x
