[@nadyanugraha284]

I understand but I don’t think u shld be calling it tutorial, kinda misleading

[@hsolakk]

Hi, love the way it came out, thanks! Does the pattern on your Etsy page include different measures for S, M, L or is it just one-size? :)

[@tintofmint]

The pattern is in sizes from UK 6-16 ☺️

[@cyycy5739]

Hi! What kind of fabric did you use??

[@tintofmint]

I used satin for this tutorial ☺️

[@emilyjohnson6957]

your patterns are wonderful the public needs more of them !!! slip dresses, slacks, blazers, tops anything!!! love love love love!

[@tintofmint]

I'm only just starting, believe me 😉

[@SL-lz9jr]

Since people can't be bothered to read the description, maybe you can try mentioning that your tutorials are for patterns you sell. Either as something you say at the start of your videos, such as, "Thank you for purchasing xyz pattern from [insert your store name]" or you can insert some text in your video to this effect. So much better than having to repeat yourself to everyone who's too lazy to read. :) PS. I could tell from your video title that this was associated with your own patterns since you did mention your store name and you gave a name to this product which to me is very indicative of a professional video versus a hobby video. BUT it seems many others were expecting a free pattern or something. Go figure. I guess deducing skills are lacking these days. Haha. Thanks for the informative video nonetheless. I"ll go check out your pattern store.

[@tintofmint]

Thank you! 🤗 You got a good point and from this video moving forward I'll just show the pattern at the begging of the tutorial to avoid any confusions☺️

[@lilianbanda5970]

bruh right ffs

[@audreybae7417]

I hope this isn't a question that's already been answered, but I came from your trousers video and loved how you added in your own measurements/how much fabric you used so I could see for reference. As I'm a beginner, I'm not sure how to estimate how much fabric I need for this project, so may I ask for your personal measurements in this top and how many meters/yards of fabric you used? If you aren't comfortable with displaying them, how much fabric would I need for US sizes 2-4? Thank you so much for this wonderful video, this is my number one project that I want to complete! :)

[@tintofmint]

Thank you so much and that's no problem at all. My bust is 90cm, waist 72 and hips 91cm. To make this top you'll need 70cm of fabric that's 150cm wide. :)

[@irenekim4597]

hi! i’m sorry i’m new to sewing, but would appreciate if you could help me figure out some confusions i have! how do i know what pressure to set my sewing machine and how do i end a stitch? as well as this, how do i know what type or stitch to do(straight,zig zag,)? Finally, sometimes when i’m sewing the back of the fabric will have big loops on it and i’m confused why...love the cowl neck and will likely be buying the pattern! thanks, hope you can get back to me!

[@tintofmint]

Hi, usually you don't have to change ant settings on you machine in terms of pressure. Use a standard foot and straight stitch to sew the top. You can use a zig zag stitch for the seams to stop them from fraying. Also it sound like the tension of one of your threads is wrong. Try to unthread the machine and thread it back again. Hope that helps 🤗🤗

[@irenekim4597]

Do you have to overlock the seams after having done a straight stitch? I’ve seen other videos and they do it in one step? I’m new to this and I find it a little confusing aha 😅

It's up to you really, but the overlocker gives a nicer and more professional finish to the garment and prevent the seams from fraying ☺️ Hope that helps!

you could also try out french seams if you don't have a serger or flat felling the seams. French seam: sewsweetness.com/2011/09/french-seams.html?v=7516fd43adaa flat felling: so-sew-easy.com/flat-felled-seam-finish/
