THANK YOU!!! I was planning on making this, and I have a lower belly, too. I appreciate the candor.

I think this will be helpful for me. I have purchased PDFs but I haven't had them printed because the researching companies was overwhelming to me. I do not want to print and tape them myself. Thank you!

Thank you for your bravery and honesty. I’m a regular viewer (miss your vlogs, hope all is well) about to try the Donny, will be adapting it to be longer before I toile it, thanks to you!

I don’t mind taping together because I like having a pattern instantly and I love the idea that I get to keep the digital file.

Hello Michelle, I was thinking about you today. I miss seeing you but understand how life works 😊 I hope you and your hubby are doing well. I look forward to the next time you put a video out. Wishing you and your family a beautiful holiday season 🌺

I did not know about it, but then I also just learning to sew.

This review was so helpful. Thanks for taking the time to put this together. I love the flower panel especially. Your dress turned out great and it looks really nice on you.

I'm a beginner. Do you have a video i can follow to help me with Trinnie Woven Dress 10-12 MLDW0822M? Thank you. This pattern was very expensive. I hope it was worth it.

Thanks!

Love the tie dye top, fabric and style

I absolutely love your dress! That was a great save! I’m in the middle of making a Donny shirt! I have been struggling with adding the back bodice and doing the burrito. Looking for advice. When I sew the back bodice to the back yoke RST then do the burrito I have twice had to unpick it because the back bodice is inside out! 🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️ I have watched the video but she goes pretty fast and I have read the instructions. Any ideas on what I’m doing wrong? Thank you for this video! I am built similar to you and will probably have to adjust my pattern too! Love you 3rd rendition! ♥️

This is the first year I have heard about this project. I will definitely be sewing this year to donate next year. I love to sew and just now beginning to follow the sewing community.

Mitchelle, I love your use of colorful fabrics to make such joyful dresses.

I just heard of it on line on you tube

Your duster looks fab! Great description. I’m tracing the pattern out now and I am a similar height (t-Rex arms and legs too hahaha) and size so your fit notes are perfect!

I had the privilege of being on the vlogging logging tour. Your dresses are so cute.❤ You had me cracking up with your downloading of bags rationale.😅😅😅 Have a blessed week! 🙏

Love your fabrics. So bright and colourful. Unfortunately I have to use fabrics from my stash but I am Sure some little girl will love it. I heard about the project 2 years ago and planned on making some but failed. This year I am making it a priority.

Just learned about this a few days ago. Would like to participate next year. I have a large stash of fabric.

Beautiful dresses! 🥰

Girls are going to love wearing your dresses❤ great video😊

I made Alisa's 2024 dress this weekend.

YOUr dresses are perfect.. How lovely for some little girl to get them.. I'm just happy to see you each week or there abouts😄

I love your bright beautiful dresses. I love me some color. ❤❤❤❤thank you (BLESSINGS TO YOU!)

So pretty dresses the little girls you get these will be so happy❤😊

Thanks for sharing your adorable dresses for Project Dress a Girl. I love the beautiful colors. I plan to sew several up this year. One of them I will sew with my 6 year old granddaughter who loves to sew and also has a real heart for children in need.

Such pretty dresses, great choice of fabric. This is my second year, I made five pop over sun dress last year. This time I have finished four with six more cut out. All of these are for the size twelve as they mentioned they get fewer of this size. I also downloaded the Alisa’s latest pattern & will make a few of these. Re the pockets I always line mine & as you mentioned it strengthens them. Thank you great video.❤

What a great find! I will have to grab that new pattern!

I love the Popover Sundress and have made several for PDAG 2024.

I go off pattern instructions too and double up the fabric for pockets for stability. Lovely dresses xx

I always do the double layer patch pockets too. They don't stretch out the way single layer pocket. Plus trying to iron over the edge. Is stressful

The girls who receive your dresses are going to be so happy with them!

Lovely dresses! Project Dress A Girl is such a feel good thing for me. I combine it with my love of thrifting... it's amazing how much donated quilting cotton I find during the year. Thanks for the smiles 🥰

Michelle, you have such a great eye for stylishly matching colors and prints together. Not everyone is able to be as adept at this. What a great gift. I love color! Super cute dresses! 🥰 Bernadette

I’m coming back to quilting after 24 year hiatus and not interested in traditional blocks and a whole lot of perfect. I planning on collage, and art quilts for placemats using Ankara remnants . I’m drawn to improvisational quilting. I’m a former rule follower turned rule breaker in garment sewing 🪡 and quilting now😮. But great to see you again. Sometimes we need breaks even from the hobbies we love. And, I love your dress. I make those as well.

Def give the business a try, and see how it goes! I wonder if “Hand-dyed” would bring more traffic than “Ice-dyed”, since it’s a more broad description? 🤔 I cannot imagine weeding all that vinyl for the cruise shirts! 😱 You are AMAZEBALLS! 💗

I just made it yesterday. I lengthened it by 7” but it’s very large and boxy, no shape at all to it. I also lengthened the sleeves.to full length.

I’m pretty new at following print out patterns (or patterns at all)/beginner at sewing and decided this jumpsuit would be a good starting point. Immediately got intimidated by the pattern lol, but your video was really helpful and informative, thank you!!

Michelle, I would love it if you had a channel and sold your ice dyed fabric, as I would be the first one in line and purchase as much as I cold. Yor fabric that you create is wonderful. All of the dresses were beautiful and looked gorgeous on you.!! I get so much inspiration from you. It is good to see you back. 😀❤

Some really pretty sewing! Thanks for sharing. I confess I didn’t know the click into a queue information.😱🤣

Hi Michelle. I'd love to buy some of your ice dyed fabric! All the pieces you've shown have been gorgeous. If you're at the concept stage, I'm not sure if you want any details yet. But others have already mentioned fabric bases, so I'll offer my preferences. My favorite fabric is jersey knit of 95% pima cotton with 5% spandex. That mix seems to be the most dependably soft cotton-spandex fabric. The softness is what makes me want to buy more of what's on offer along with rich wonderful colors and patterns. Same with rayon wovens -- the ones that are soft are the most appealing to me. That even applies to woven cotton fabric for me -- the softer ones like cotton lawn are often more appealing to me for garments. I make quilts too. For those projects, I'm usually looking for light but densely woven cotton fabrics with beautiful prints or colors; to me softness is nice but not essential for that use. I think it's exciting that you might create a business and hope it could be structured to result in a decent income for you and all the time you invest in creating the fabric. Wishing you the best as you think about possibilities and jump into researching and learning and expanding horizons, Antonia

Love the dresses. The tropical one turned out really cute.

I would love to buy your fabric. I would wear it and quilt with it!

Love both the dresses I have sewn s/arc cocoon dress with adjustments i Love it great fabrics oooogreat colours lots of fun ahead 😊😊😊

Hey its great to see you and hear what you are up to. Maybe a tee shirt business is in your future too.

I don’t recall if you have a serger or not. You could run the towels for your swatches through the serger and it would cut them and finish one edge of the fabric. You’d have to run the opposite edge(s) through serger separately. Just an idea if your pinking rotary blade doesn’t work well. I have one and dislike it.
