DIY Spring Cottagecore dress (Bustier dress with puff sleeve and button front) | Sewing tutorial

Hi everyone,
Welcome or welcome back to my channel. My name is Jess and I love doing DIY, making clothes in a "simply but pretty" way.
In today's video, I'm going to share with you how I made my Spring Cottagecore dress. This dress comes with a bustier design, puff sleeve with bow tie at the end of the sleeve, button front and side pockets. It's the dress I always want to have in my wardrobe. And finally I can make it.
To make this dress, please check out some of my basic information below:
- Sewing machine: Merrit Joyful Sewing
- Material: Main fabric: 2.5m of Boil fabric
Lining fabric: 2.5m of soft and thin cotton fabric
- My body measurements: 80-66-92 (bust-waist-hip). I'm 165cm and usually wear Small size.
If you don't have my Clara dress patten and want to learn to make it, you can check it out in the link below:

I learn sewing by myself. So I would love to know more sharing from you guys to improve my skill.

Jess, this dress is so beautiful! You did an amazing job! I tried to buy the pattern but I don’t see it on your website. Can you please look into it? ❤

[@JessDangDIY]

I don't have this pattern for selling as I drafted it myself. But someone has commented that it's quite similar with Mcall pattern. So you can check it out there

Your skills with lining a garment are impressive

Thanks a lot!

[@MargJMJ36]

That just looks so beautiful on you.

[@JessDangDIY]

Thank you so much

[@Nicegirl_Nursing]

This is really cute. I wouldn't describe this as bustier though.

[@shailamurphy9985]

Hi, jess! I love your tutorials so much, I’ve already made a lot of clothes from your tutorials 😍 could you try to make some fitted dresses please?🙏😊

[@JessDangDIY]

Thanks a lot! I'll try to make them soon

[@moonp2671]

Stunning! I will try this next 😊

[@JessDangDIY]

Thanks a lot!

[@olgakendall464]

OKAY, homegirl went from showing us how to measure our bodies ourselves to get the pattern, to just drafting on the fabric to this. I'm still on phase 1, ma'am 😅😅

[@minagurung2364]

How much fabric Did you use for the dress

[@JessDangDIY]

I used around 2m of fabric for this dress. The with of my fabric is 150cm

[@user-rn4mv3yp7w]

If only you could give us a DIY pattern for this kinda dress.

[@sakuranakamura5060]

She's already giving a lotttt

[@phoebeclark5938]

This dress is almost identical to McCall's Pattern M7974 (view A), if you're still interested in this kind of dress

[@anonymouswhohasaname3445]

She already has a tutorial on how to do the Clara dress patterns yourself though? So this IS diy. You just have to make the clara dress pattern from the different video and then pattern hack it just like she does in this video.

[@user-rn4mv3yp7w]

@@anonymouswhohasaname3445 can you give me the link of the video you're mentioning?

Buenos días ,me encantan todos lo que haces 😍 eres excelente. Hay cosas en las que no puedo seguirte pues me cuesta entender la traducción . Sería fantástico si pudieses poner traducción en castellano 🙏. Muchas gracias por compartir tu trabajo , es un placer verlo

[@ayzelshah]

such a gorgeous dress just had a question, how can I add finishing on the sleeve hole without using lining?

[@JessDangDIY]

You can use the bias to finish it

[@user-pk6pb8du5u]

Absolutely beautiful Jess!! I love it 😁. Where did you say your tutorial is on the pattern for your cottagecore dress? Thanks so much!

[@JessDangDIY]

I did a hack with the bodice pattern from my Clara dress pattern. You can check out that pattern on my website

[@abirdaoud2591]

Beautiful dress ❤ There is a free pattern of this dress ? 👗

[@morag4267]

I love the fabric, could you give more detail on what kind of fabric it is, or where you got it from? Thanks!

[@JessDangDIY]

Thank you! I usually get my fabrics at the local market where I live. And I've been moving quite a lot. That's why I didn't put the link of where I got my fabric as they don't sell online

[@orisisorisis6946]

Muy bonito vestido. ¿Sería posible que nos enseñaras a confeccionar el corte camisero y otro tipo rombo? Muchas gracias y saludos.

[@marwanageeb2024]

رائع

[@shakuharsha7386]

This is awesome, I love the fabric, what is boil fabric? Is there another term for it?

[@JessDangDIY]

Thanks a lot!

[@olivette9664]

Hi Jess, Pls could you explain how you cut the lining fabric? I don't quite understand it from the picture. Thank you🙂

[@JessDangDIY]

The lining fabric is the same for the sleeve and the back bodice part. For the front bodice, the lining is the first front bodice pattern. And for the skirt part, the lining is the half circle one.

[@nashaina98]

Lindíssimo ❤ 😍😍

[@fullmoon2449]

Could you please make the pattern for this dress ❤❤❤❤

[@nethlustre]

Hello Jess, where did you buy your sewing machine?

[@JessDangDIY]

I bought my sewing machine as the second hand one at the shop in my city here.

[@estelanunezchannel]

hello i was wondering where you purchased that beautiful fabric?

[@JessDangDIY]

I got it at the local market in my city like most of my other fabrics.

[@elizabethquintanilla7258]

Hello Jess,!!! a question.???? Did you remove the last video,? I tried to find it because I was about to make one and I wasn't lucky to find it. Blessings

[@JessDangDIY]

Yes, I did. Sorry for that. Because that dress might effect other people livelihood.

[@anamaldooli]

I want to get into sewing projects like this, but fabric I look for is so expensive. Does anyone have tips on how to find affordable, cute fabric? Or finding alternatives that are cheaper (like bedsheets or curtains - and what material I should look for)?

[@JessDangDIY]

You can try to go with bed sheet. Some of them are very pretty and the prices are a bit cheaper. Luckily I can get good fabrics with cheap prices here.

[@tinimaus1986]

Jess, this is McCalls M7974 and this dress is copyrighted! You should not do this!

[@user-rn4mv3yp7w]

She is not giving away the pattern for free. I think she is using it with some variation. So why can this be a problem? I have seen many other videos where people are using this pattern with alterations. So where is the problem? I didn't understand??

[@tinimaus1986]

@@user-rn4mv3yp7w because it is a copyrighted pattern. As long as she say, who owns it, it is fine.

[@JessDangDIY]

Thanks for letting me know! I saw this dress on Pinterest when finding my inspiration. This style of dress was made to sell from a lot brands. So I think this design is not belonged to any individual person or company. Besides that I was just trying to make this dress myself and sharing it to everyone. I don’t sell this pattern or use McCalls pattern to re-sell. So I think it’s not a copyright here. But if anyone like this dress and want to get the pattern, they now know where to find the similar one😊

[@tinimaus1986]

@@JessDangDIY I was just afraid, that you could get banned or sued because of this. 🫶🏻

[@cat47889]

@@tinimaus1986 Unless Jess starts selling photocopies of the Mccalls patttern, she'll be fine. McCall's doesn't have a monopoly on 40s tea dresses with button front closures. Its a super common style and there are tons of companies that sell similar patterns. Off the top of my head, Vikisews элизабет, Style Arc Belle, and Daria Patternmaking Million Buttons Dress are all pretty much the same as the M7974. If you expand to patterns with different closures you can also find similar patterns sold by Sew Over It, Grasser, Marsha Style, as well as countless vintage patterns. M7974 is just the most popular version.
