So cute top and hummingbird! 💖🙏
Thanks Yvonne! 😃 The hummingbird was so pretty, I was so glad to get a little clip of it 😄
I love your videos and learned a lot from them thank you ❤
Loved making this top for my girl
That's so wonderful to hear!!! Thank you so much for following my tutorial 💕 If you'd like to share a picture I'd love to see!
Very cute, simple and fun top! Would pair well with some high waisted shorts or capris. Thank you for your thoughtful comments on the current difficult times we are going through.🙏🏼❤️
Thank you so much!! I’m happy you like it 😃 I’ll have to try it with a pair of high waist shorts, I hadn’t thought of that but I think that’s a great idea! And thank you for your kind words as well. I hope you’re staying safe and health 💕
I love youuu i made a lovely dress from one of your turtorialssss ! This one is so good cant wait to try
Just subscribed>>Awesome and easy to learn.
Monica presents bugs, birds and a sewing tutorial. Pretty pink top, so cute with the tiny sleeves, easy for anyone to make.
😂😂 I should change my channel description to nature bloopers plus a little sewing in between! I’m glad you like the top, thanks so much as always for the support and I hope you’re doing well!
Love your tutorials, so easy to follow. Can you do one on a twist neck halter
Thank you so much, I’m so happy you enjoy them! have a lot of projects lined up right now but I’ll add that to my idea list. Thank you for watching and for the suggestion 😃
Love it!
Awww the hummingbird was so lovely. And that fabric is so pretty Monika. Great tutorial, as always. Lee xx
Thanks Lee! I was so excited to get a little clip of the hummingbird 😃 Thank you for watching and I hope you and your family are staying safe and healthy 💕
This is extra cute xx
Thank you!!! 💕
I love the simplicity, and yet super cute! Thank you!
Thank you! So glad you like it!! 😃 I’ve always loved the detail on these styles of tops, I think it makes them look more complicated than they actually are! Thanks for watching!
I love this top. Cant wait to make it myself. And thankyou for saying youre praying for justice. Alot of youtubers arent saying anything about whats going on and its sad. Also What kind of sewing machine do you have?
Thank you! I’m so glad to hear you’re gonna make one, I’d love to hear how it turns out 😃 And yes of course, I feel like it’s so important to speak up and I want to have a space here that’s safe and comfortable for everyone. I’ve posted more about it on a couple of community posts here on CZcams as well as on my Instagram but I’m trying to do what I can to make a difference in my personal life and on here. I’m also really taking a look at what brands are speaking up and taking action (or not) so I know that I’m buying and recommending fabric from brands that care. Also for the sewing machine, I have a link in the description for my sewing machine - it’s called a Singer Stylist. Last time I checked it was sold out on amazon but you could still see what it looks like and all the features with that link. I got it last year on an incredible sale during Amazon Prime day and I love it! Thank you so much for watching my channel and I hope you’re staying safe and healthy 💕
@@ComicatCreations that's awesome. ☺. Yes I've been looking closer at brands and restaurants. If they haven't said anything by now, I am no longer a customer. This is something extremely important and NEEDS to be addressed. So thank you for using your platform. Also I posted the crop top I made following your tutorial on my Instagram ☺❤✊🏿

Lovely blouse, Ms. Monica! Love it!! Nice fabrics you used too!! 😊😊
Thanks Marissa! So glad you like it 😃 Thanks for taking the time to watch and I hope you’re staying safe!
You've helped me make some of the cutest items!! I love that you're tutorials don't require us to be mathematicians! How would I make this top with a non stretch fabric?
The top is so cute 😍 thank you for tutorial
Thank you! 😃 Glad you like it!
This came out amazing! Love the top ❤️
Thanks Sandra, I appreciate that! So glad you love the top 😃 Thanks for taking the time to watch!
love it❤️
Thanks Rhea! I appreciate you taking the time to watch 😃
I’ve just seen this on Instagram, and I realised I’d not seen anything from you for ages! I am a long term subscriber, but I hit that notifcation bell.
Ohh that’s so weird, I guess I better start saying to hit the bell in my intros!! I’ve heard people say that before but didn’t realize apparently how important it is! Thank you for letting me know 😃 I hope you’re doing well and staying safe Julie!
Amazing! Also which accent is that? I love it
Thank you for watching! I’m from North Carolina in the USA - although I don’t really sound like it because I don’t have the strong southern accent a lot of people from here have lol!
where did you go, miss your tutorials
