Do you have a video on how you cut the diagonal? Also, does this work with premade double fold bias tape?
Very nice. the Arm slits look really interesting from the side and back blending with the surprise on the Back. Just so lovely. I do the same as you, having worked in the Apparel Industry on CAD, with production, and traveling overseas. Now I'm a believer in using what is here and know the damage fast fashion has done. Consider my comment 1000 likes.
You could add a gusset on your underarms to gain more movement independent from the unique and pretty draping you created
Hi, I Refshion too and love this. I do Redesgin and am making a wrap knit dress from Mens Polo shirt. I have 4 of the same color even, so much fabric. Using this lovely video for inspiration. Thank you.
This amazing thank you...can I ask how do you do this with a cargo pant with pocket on the outside seam?
I found this video because i was considering trying to put elastic in a chunky cardigan to give it a waist. I purchased an olive green hip length cardigan, and it ages me 5 years. Do you think it would be enough to change the shape?
Thank You. I Understand This Video, More Than Most.
Wonderful! ❤
Thank you! 😊
Very good , I will try it 👍
All the best
My probleme is to equalize the hem after put the godet pieces in
I'm not sure what you mean! Can you offer a little more clarity.
@@colleenglea when I cut the sides and sew together one side is longer than the other and IT is not easy to find the rights length both sides
Thank you! I can’t believe how far down I had to scroll to find the perfect video! Well done!
You're very welcome!
Absolutely love your hair x
Thank you!
Wow!! Fantastic - The very best of luck with everything !! The shop is beautiful, the perfect little haven away from city life - must have taken so much effort to create. It's so lovely !
Thank you so much 😀
Thanks for your teaching.
You are very welcome
Great tutorial. I bought a thrifted sleeveless top that was tight in the armholes. I got so far cutting and shaping then panicked about the binding! Sorted and it looks great.
Sew happy my bias binding tutorial helped you to get a great result.
Where can I get the pad
More shops that sell sewing supplies.
Thank you 😊
You're welcome 😊
vorrei la traduzione in italiano
Thanks
No problem
Every time I need to add a godet, I refer back to this video. You have explained the process so clearly. Such a great help!
Great to hear!
Thank you.
You're welcome!
This was very useful thankyou
You’re welcome 😊
Make some pretty patches (and sew them here and there) to help hide what you want to hide.
I'm happy with the outcome.
Thanks, new sewer.
You’re welcome 😊. The best of luck in your fashion sewing journey.
Thank you
You're welcome
Thank you ❤👍
You're welcome 😊

You're welcome!
Thank you.🙂
You’re welcome 😊
I'm happy and thankful that I've found your channel. This can help me in my DIYs!
Glad I could help!
Sewed my first hip pockets! Thank you for a wonderful tutorial. Really appreciate how you took the time to explain each step.
You are so welcome!
A wonderful tutorial. I was searching for a hip pocket tutorial not even knowing that was what this pocket was called. You are an excellent instructor. Thank you!
Thank you!
Thank you for that fix
No problem!
Isejskejwo love thisss tyyyy sm for thisss
No problem!
i looked EVERYWHERE for a good tutorial for exactly that problem. its short but so well explained! thank you!
You're welcome!
Damn you look good
Thank you!
I want some 😊
You can do it!
I'm officially staying away from velvet ! It's unbelievable 😳
Have a go at sewing it, the more you sew with it the better you will get
@@colleenglea I'll keep trying. That's the only way I've made it this far.
That is beautifully done! Just what i was looking for. I didnt want to use a top stitch because my dress hasnt got that anywhere else. This looks so nice! Thank you for the video
You are so welcome!
So chic!
Thank you!
Thank you. I bought several silk shirts from H and M in large and the medium would have been a better fit! Gonna try this on one of them and see how I go. Thanks!
Good luck!
Thank you for the informative video? What about inverted pleats in the side seams of the dress? Like the late 1960s style? I have pattern instructions but the pleats on the dress are sewn a little differently than what you've shown here because they are in the side seams. Any advice?
The only advice I can give is to try my method to see if the dress hangs the way you want it too.
@@colleenglea okay! Thank you.
Love love love all, one 💋 suggestions? Will you be allowed table brollies over the outside tables? We do in Australia and they allow patrons just a little more privacy from the noise and movement around, but not detracting from the ambience whatever as that's why we should choose your cafe to go to in the first place! Well done and best wishes with your business!
Thanks for the idea, I will look into that!
How to you put lace in the arm hole with bias tape.
You may struggle with lace if it's not cut on the bias! Try placing the wrong side of the lace to the right side of the bias tape and sew into place.
YOU ARE STUNNING!
Thanks!
Love how you said "please" to Alexa, ha ha! That's such a cute boutique, love it! Wishing you loads of success with it.
Thanks so much! 😊 I don't think she likes me much, she does not always do what I ask of her:).
CONGRATS🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thank you!
@@colleenglea You’re welcome 🤗
Exciting ❤️
Thank you!
Oh my 😮! Congratulations on your new endeavor ❤. We want to know all the details. I’m so excited for you guys 🎉.
Thank you so much!!
Thank you - this was so helpful. I really appreciated your teaching points regarding how to place the sleeve inside the garment and info about notches.
You are so welcome!
