So glad you didn’t play it safe with black. I do love green. I’m just finishing a simple pale green Spring dress. Thanks for your vlog.

Another great collection of makes! I really like the max tee as a pullover. That is brilliant!! And good save on the Alice shirt to Emmi Tee! I have noticed you do that a few times…cut on the cross grain, sew an extra seam because you could get it on the fold or jigsaw a few pieces to make one…and it is a good way to put our creative experience to use! Thanks for sharing your aces and your saves!! That frocktails dress is going to be a stunner! Mr. French Seams is going to want to whip you off to a night at the Ritz in that lovely number! Have fun sewing it!

Oh, this was exactly (!) the sewing inspiration I needed today. I can't believe how productive you have been, even when your boys have been poorly. So well done! I love your Nest sweatshirts, and that Mari dress will look stunning! I look forward to following your journey into jeans making. I keep referencing the Stitch sisters video on jeans patterns. They did a long video where they talked about all the patterns they had found. I was thinking that the Halfmoon atelier 101 jeans might be for you? It has a straight leg, but it is low rise, and the shape looks like it could fit you very well. Have a lovely weekend, and thanks again for spreading your love of sewing with us!

Lovely makes again, Rachel! I think you looked so glam in your electric blue skirt and navy top and I also love the orange top you’re wearing - great use for the offcuts. After 3 years of sewing I’m starting to branch out a bit into crafting and made the fold away tote bag you made a month or two ago - gorgeous simple make. Thanks for the inspiration! Can thoroughly recommend Gail Patrice Yellen’s KZitem tutorials on finishing seams with different types of thread on overlocker/coverstitch. ❤

Hi Rachael, I too found the SOI Alice top VERY low at the centre-front. I managed to raise it 1" at centre-front and the second version was better. I also graded the front cup and front cup lining from a 12 at the armscye to a 10 at the bottom of the pattern piece and this took out some of the fullness and gave it a better fit overall. For reference I am 35.5" A/B sewing cup and generall get a good fit from SOI size 12 patterns. Hope this helps you as it is a nice top when it fits.
@TheFrenchSeams_vlog
7 ай бұрын
Glad it’s not just me! Raising the front is a great idea, but does it make the tab much bigger? I never fit in their size 12. I need lots of adjustments. It is a shame as the top is really cute! Thanks so much for the feedback and thanks for watching!

Hi. I am new to dressmaking (and your channel), with little experience when it comes to working with knit fabrics. I like your Max Tee and wondered if I could make it from scuba fabric. I purchased a remnant at a bargain price and have been wondering what to make with it. Also, in last week's video, you showed us your Donni shirt - I wondered if it is geared towards a beginner like me. I assume it is made using a woven fabric, which I am used to working with.
@TheFrenchSeams_vlog
7 ай бұрын
Hi Linda! The max tee is a fabulous pattern and it would totally work with scuba. It would have great structure just like the one I’m wearing. The Donny is a fabulous pattern. I can’t seem to find where it shows the sewing level. It’s a bit tricky with the burrito neckline and some finer tailoring details but they do have a fabulous sew along so you could give it a go? Yes it’s woven and you could choose a nice stable one. Perhaps choose some cheaper fabric to practice with? Very best of luck!!!
