I love the white shirt that took three years to make. Sooo delicate! Just beautiful! You are very inspirational!!

[@theseamstressatthecottage]

Thank you, that shirt is still a very proud moment. I love it.

[@rozannaeastland1247]

That long white printed dress with the cardigan that you knitted is really nice! You look beautiful!

[@theseamstressatthecottage]

Thank you, Roxanne, that is one of my favorite dresses

[@Finny_finn_finn]

I love that you told us that you would change things...I feel like that every time I make something...I always would have done something different if I make it again

[@theseamstressatthecottage]

@Finny_finn_finn I am often changing things , even in garments that have been around for a while. I mostly use good quality fabric so I wear things for many years. I also like to find a pattern that works with my body and then use it in different fabrics. Hope you have happy sewing moments in the days to come.

[@Finny_finn_finn]

@theseamstressatthecottage I truly believe in thrifting or making things myself...fast fashion doesn't last....I keep trying but to be honest...I make phenomenal quilts...and so-so clothes

[@theseamstressatthecottage]

@Finny_finn_finn I like your ethos! I am not a quilter but have made 2 in my life time. I am truly inspired by quilters!

This is my first time to see your videos. I love your style and your creativity. I have gone through a very long slump and have withdrawn from sewing. But, you have inspired me to sew at least one garment this season. Thank you. ❤

[@theseamstressatthecottage]

@lindavirden9592 Hi Linda, welcome , I am so happy to hear that you are inspired to sew again!! Sometimes, we go through a sewing drought, and then something waters it, and things come alive. Today, I feel thankful that you're drought has been broken. Happy sewing.

[@ruthe8095]

Thoroughly enjoyed this episode. You have some beautiful garments. I have sewn since a little girl and the hobby has stayed with me for 50 years. I am very much a slow sewer making more complicated pieces, rather than fast disposable sewing. I appreciate how you adapt patterns and shapes to meet your needs and wear your pieces all year round- like your trousers, they are fab!

[@theseamstressatthecottage]

@ruthe8095 thank you, Ruth, I am also getting back to more complicated but timeless sewing.

[@antoniaburlingame5921]

Hi Katinka. What a great walk through with twirls of your autumn/winter wardrobe! Thanks for taking us along. Just an idea to avoid anything tight around the waist, I made overalls out of wool fabric (lined). They are wonderfully warm. The fabric was inherited from a friend: a brown and cream small houndstooth check. I imagine wool overalls would look great with all your lovely hand knitted sweaters, Antonia

[@theseamstressatthecottage]

Thank you, that is such a good Idea. I have some wool in my South African stash that I could use. I will have to look into that for next winter.

[@engelinasimmons4686]

It was so much fun seeing all the pretty things you have made! The barrel-leg pants are brilliant and I really enjoy how all the pieces can be used at various times of the year through layering and the thought and creativity you bring to sewing. I must have the one house in America that is cold in the winter - I need three layers, including a hoodie, to stay warm 😄!

I'm so glad to hear that you enjoyed it, in South Africa we also have to put lots of clothes on inside because our houses are not warm and heating is so expensive. Stay warm and have a wonderful day.

[@downtoearthsewing]

Your wardrobe looks very versatile so far! If you are looking for a comfy pair of pants, I would recommend the love notions Duet trousers. I made a pair in Ponte, and immediately made a second pair in stretch corduroy from JoAnn's. I gave them a yoga waistband so they are super comfortable, just pull them up, no zipper. The pattern is designed with a generous rise and accommodates a sizable bum. I really should made a petticoat like yours! Meanwhile getting by with my old slips. And I love all your sweaters and cardigans!

[@theseamstressatthecottage]

Thank you, that pattern have popped up on my radar quite a bit, I need to look into it.

[@downtoearthsewing]

@theseamstressatthecottage I resisted for a long time but so glad I did. Big 4 pants never fit me right. The Duet are drafted for a much curvier shape and fit great without modifications.
