I love the fact that you do tutorials on free patterns and show how they fit. It's such a great help. Would you consider unfettered patterns also? Love your fabric choice for this top.

[@Sew-Happy]

Thanks so much! I can't believe I've never heard of unfettered patterns! 😲 I'll have a look. 💕

Hello, I want to thank you for your time and dedication in sharing and giving us the PDF of the blouse patterns. I love this style, but when I have a question, when I went to my printer, many lines appeared in the double patterns. First of all, I want to tell you I am a beginner in sewing and I only sew according to a pattern.

[@Sew-Happy]

Yes, her patterns include separate seam allowance lines and it can hurt your eyes. 😆 You find your size line and the corresponding seam allowance line (usually 3/8 or 1/2"). Then cut along the seam allowance.

[@elsycastro7629]

Thank you for reading and answering my question. I understand that the extra line along with the size you need is the seam allowance, thank you.

[@elsycastro7629]

Gracias, es un modelo de blusa que me encanta, y el estilo de las mangas genial. Muy agradecida por su tiempo!!

[@Sew-Happy]

Me alegro de que te guste. Gracias por ver!!

[@karenneiman856]

Wouldn't it have been easier to finish the sleeve hem before attatching the sleeves to the bodice and serging the seams with no gathering instead of using the two step process? I can totally see sewing and then serging the seams with the gathers though, maybe even using a basting stitch, in case adjustments needed to be made. Thanks.

[@Sew-Happy]

Good idea. 💡

[@kath_168]

[@Sew-Happy]

🥰

[@terryweister9577]

I love this blouse & your tutorial. I have the pattern printed but I am confused as to the way to cut out my size. Can you help?

[@Sew-Happy]

Use the “layers” function in adobe to isolate your size lines only and then print. You will love it!! Find directions on how to choose the layers on KZbin or Google. Let me know how it goes 💜

[@user-tm3px5nj8f]

Question: I noticed on most Tiana patterns you use a 3/8 seam allowance for the total garment when the pattern shows different seam allowance for example this one shows side seam at 1/2. Is this just a preference of yours ? I actually prefer smaller seam allowance for less fabric waste and since I don’t have a serger I use an overlock foot so I don’t have to trim seams.

[@Sew-Happy]

To be honest, I can't access the layers when I print, so it's hard to find the allowance lines that match my size line. So, I just create 3/8" for all seams. Thanks for catching it.

[@shif7905]

Thank you for the sew along. Can u please tell me what size you chose?

[@Sew-Happy]

Thanks for watching. I made size XS

[@justmejust4553]

love i t

[@Sew-Happy]

Thank you! 💜

[@tlt43]

Thank you for the video. It looks like you lengthened this top as compared to where it hits on the website. About how much did you lengthen it? I like where you're hem sits verses how cropped it is on the site.

[@Sew-Happy]

I actually didn't add length! 😳 I hemmed at 1/2" and I think the allowance was 1", but no other change.

[@user-tm3px5nj8f]

When you use an overcast foot instead of a serger to finish your edges, do you backstitch before and after sewing?

[@Sew-Happy]

It's a great question -- no, you do not need to backstitch when you overcast.

[@kellemoody3614]

I really like the look of this pattern; however, I cannot get the ties to turn right side out. Anyone else struggling with that? Any other maybe easier ways to turn them?

[@Sew-Happy]

Try this - works perfect every time!! Sew THIN Straps 🤯 🧵 kzbin.infoUaaLLv-rfJQ?feature=share

Okay will do! Thank you!
