Hello from Atlanta! I love the navy blue linen with lemons. Can’t wait to see your dress!

[@sequingirlie]

I love your channel and your davenport is gorgeous xx

[@madebykarenmarie]

Thank you so much, lovely! ❤️ Love yours, too. Your style is so lovely and colourful. Oh.. and that green Seasons of East dress you have is stunning!

[@virginiamahon2863]

I think that was a great idea! And, yes, please film the next one. I do like the top.

[@madebykarenmarie]

Thanks! Then I’ll make a note of that :)

Love your recreated dress! Very cute wrap detail! You’ve reminded me how much I love the davenport.. I need to make another.. and oh that pink and red fabric is divine

[@madebykarenmarie]

Thanks! Yes, I love the Davenport :) I’m thinking hard about what to make with the pink and red viscose..

Hello Karen Marie. Lovely to see you again. Being able to recreate a much loved garment is an amazing skill to have. Your top looks lovely and like you said, using this one as the basis of the next one is a great idea. I would love to see some footage of how you do this. I had the same idea of a brooch as another option to a button. Your Davenport dress looks beautiful on you! Looking forward to to seeing your makes. The cardigan pattern from muse pattern really y speaks to me...I get a vintage vibe from it which is definitely my thing. I think I'll be paying muse patterns a little visit ! Stitches out and starting to use my hand more. it does become tired and achy but slowly but surely I'll get there. Have a wonderful warm week and see you next vlog

Thanks, Julie!

Originally commented before I saw your material. I like them all. I think the pink /red print will look nice on you. I think the navy with lemons would look nice in a short sleeve shirt dress. Can't wait to see everything

[@madebykarenmarie]

Ooh. Yes, that is a good idea!

[@shambolicsewist3836]

Love all of the fabrics! I think the lilac will look sensational on you. I think the frida and shorts sounds like a good idea, then you can mix and match them across your wardrobe.
I also think the lemons would make a fabulous dress: fringe? Myosotis? Thanks for the video 😊

[@madebykarenmarie]

Ooh. Yes, I have the Fringe pattern, but haven’t made it up yet. That might work well.. I’ll have a good think about it :)

[@astridoma7413]

The davenport dress is lovely. Perhaps I should give it a go. I made the Esther shorts recently. The fit is good, but I found it a bit too high wasted for my liking. I ended up changing it.

[@madebykarenmarie]

Oh, do tell more, please! What chamges did you make?
