[@erinsymone1645]

Is anyone else just in complete awe of creative people like this? I know I am!

[@Manifesting_Secret_Sketchbook]

I'm one of those creative peiple- I appreciate handmade things

[@duchy13]

Yes!!

[@lacynicolp]

That must be so satisfying to look at and think, “yeah, I did all this!” They looking amazing!

[@gwynt909]

It is fun. I started making my own clothes when I was 8. The satisfaction comes when someone asks where did you buy your clothes and you can answer "I made this" and it is completely unique and it fits, unlike many off-the-peg clothes which just don't fit. I figure if I have to adjust store bought clothes to fit I might as well just make the garment from material I want and the pattern I like.

[@vegemitegirl1971]

Your Laura Ashley dress is the pattern I had made up for my 3 bridesmaids in April 1994, except the girls had short sleeves and the dress was in claret. So 1994. Thank you for the memories.

[@violetbee2857]

I love that you give old material a new life. Thank you for recycling! ☆☆☆☆☆

[@crystalneel748]

Wow I feel antique! Lol☺️ Just imagine I actually made several of those exact Laura Ashley dresses for myself…when the pattern was NEW!😲🤭

[@cathytarapacz]

I still think that your vintage table cloth that you made into a button up shirt is the best, I lovvveeeee the daisy dress I have almost finished my second one and have plans for 2 more,

[@RoseryApparel]

Thanks Cathy! I’m so glad you love the Daisy as much as I do 😍

[@SongbirdCollageArts]

I bought a sewing machine in November and it’s still in the box. You’re inspiring me to learn how to sew, I just need to find the time. Thanks for sharing your awesome content. If I figure sewing out, the Rosa dress is the first garment on my list!

[@annebrown3538]

I loved this video Janelle, I went and had a look at my own sewing journal after watching this and I have made 20 items in 2021. A variety of dresses, tops, trousers, a long night dress and coat. My journal is so useful as I keep notes so that when I make the pattern again I know what adjustments I need to make or ideas to hack it next time alongside the fabric I used. Happy sewing in 2022 ✂️🧵 x

[@Manifesting_Secret_Sketchbook]

WELL Done- you are using your skills- not wasting them You ARE living your life. Congratulations- your clothes remind me of the 90s lovely memories Thank You.

[@gradosa8272]

😍 I remember one full year I was wearing something new every day. very satisfying.

[@lenapas9480]

What I like the most is, they all dresses and modest dresses 👗 great work!

[@francinelessard2676]

Just like you I love the Popcorn cardigan and the Daisy dress in this beautiful green. Thank you for your enthousiasm, I would love to sew a new wardrobe, so feminine!

[@lizhopkins6926]

Your taste is impeccable.. I love that you use second-hand fabric, too! 🥰

[@katinkasirena]

So many great makes. My three favourites are your popcorn cardigan, the blouse from tablecloth - the usage of the embroidery was genius and the picnic dress - I love the silhouette.

[@sheryllstarr7115]

You know we enjoyed your video. I appreciate you sharing your fabulous 👌🏾 garments. They are still so on time in 2023. You are very pretty and your garments match you well. Thank you😀....Always, Sheryll

[@trishwintour4597]

The dress you don't like looks stunning on you. Keep it!

[@MabruBlack]

Your me-made wardrobe looks amazing! I think that the gingham dress from the vintage pattern (the one that you didn’t like how it turned out) could make a super cute jumpsuit! That way the seam on the middle will integrate to the design. Otherwise, I think that getting enough fabric to remake that panel from the front without the seam is an option too, and fabric from the old panel cam be recycled into smaller projects.

[@TheDovesNest]

I think it’s beautiful on you and maybe even something as getting rid of the pockets for a smoother silhouette would help. (Getting rid of pockets is so sad, so I k ow you might not want to do that)

[@teresacarle294]

@@TheDovesNest 💯% agree with you both. #️⃣1️⃣ Janelle's 2021 Me-Made wardrobe is impressive. #️⃣2️⃣Even the vintage plaid garment looks lovely on her. 🤍Do love pockets, but 🤔 think that dress would flow beautifully over her darling figure without them. 🧐Plus, I would consider adding a center (or side split). 🤍Do love, love, love a tea length dress. It's my jam, but this length can🪓 chop us off😱. It can make almost anyone seem "stumpy🪵", esp. like me when you don't wear heels👠 to help off-set that impression. Not petite like Janelle, but having a low waist on an hourglass⏳ figure does give the unfortunate impression my torso is ⬆️longer⬇️ while my legs are ➡️shorter⬅️. Tea length dresses only make that more obvious🤣. A split in the skirt with a 👀peek-a-boo glimpse of leg counteracts that message. It visually fools the eye👁️👁️ into thinking the legs go on & on above the split too. This simple trick elongates↕️ the overall vertical line. 💚 Bridget from Cali☘️ (using my pal's YT acct)

[@lisahoffmann3274]

I love your wardrobe. It's so beautiful and feminine.

[@Minnie11chula]

Wow one thing to sew but to create patterns!!! I am in awe!

[@hollysews1170]

This was such a satisfying video to watch, the colour palette of your wardrobe is amazing! It's a shame you didn't love your longer gingham dress, but I'm so glad you shared this with us, sometimes sewing projects don't work out how I hope and it's good to know I'm not the only one. I'm currently working on a perfect everyday dress too with your Rosa pattern. Excited to see what you come up with in 2022 x

[@wendythomas4930]

You are soo gifted with creativity! Such beautiful and feminine pieces.

[@carlacrawford9322]

Loved many of the items! The blouse from a vintage tablecloth, McCalls 7974, the shirred sleeve dress, 3691 Style, the shorter vintage dress from same pattern as long version you didn't like, and the corduroy dress, and the five rectangles dress. Your popcorn sweater is beautiful!

[@pinkteaforfemininity7958]

I love the cardigan, the beautiful sage green long dress on you, and Laura Ashley dress!

[@cindypeterson1629]

I think everything you made is absolutely beautiful! but I think one of my favorites is your red gingham picnic dress I am just in love with that so beautiful

[@DominiqueRamseyArt]

Your skill and knowledge in apparel making is phenomenal!! All your pieces are beautiful, makes me want to wear a dress myself

[@PetDKK]

It is incredible that you made all that! All your garments are so perfectly made! If I didn't know you made them I would have thought it was expensive designer clothes 😍😍😍

[@RoseryApparel]

Woah such a compliment! Thank you 🧡

[@stephaniestange662]

You just added sooooo many dresses to my 2022 sewing plans lol. Thanks for sharing!!

[@Handbagqueen23]

Yessss I’ve been looking forward to a video like this, I love your work

[@RoseryApparel]

Thank you so much 😊

[@ZaraKimori]

Satisfying seeing how well all the pieces fit together. Gorgeous 😍

[@marcidunfee6063]

Beautiful pieces. I love the popcorn cardigan 🧡 and the daisy dress in green. 💚

[@patriciasmith9039]

All of your garments are lovely…my favorite is the long sleeve dress that has shirring on the waist, sleeves, dress, etc…so dreamy! And, I covet the popcorn sweater…so talented….Be Blessed….

[@mickeymouse2295]

I really enjoy your designs. They are a modern version of vintage design. You are an amazing seamstress. So talented!

[@RoseryApparel]

Aw thank you!! 🧡🧡

[@anhthule1204]

I love the orange earth tone pullover.

[@sheilaanderson912]

What a beautiful wardrobe you created! The plaid dress that you do not like too much is lovely. It looks really good on you even if you don't think so. Thanks for sharing :)

[@mzphillygurl]

Beautiful pieces. Love love love the floral vintage dress! 2nd fav is the green layered gathered dress.

[@RoseryApparel]

Thank you! 🧡

[@veronicapurcell5067]

I love styles like this. These dresses are so adorable. I used to sew but haven't for a while but still have my sewing machine. I find these styles lovely however some people look at me strangely when I wear them but I don't care. They're one of the styles I like. I enjoy varied fashion. You did a great job on these items. Well made and stylish.

[@pamelafreeman4548]

All are beautiful! Love the popcorn cardigan and colors you use and all the feminine details!!❤❤❤

[@fancyfauns4651]

Your wardrobe color palette is perfection 👌😍 the smocking and knitting pieces are probably my fave, they're all so cute!!!

[@RoseryApparel]

Thanks so much! It’s definitely very satisfying to look at them all together like this 😍

[@fancyfauns4651]

@@RoseryApparel yes, so satisfying!! Having clothes arranged by color is so aesthetically pleasing

[@laurenbradynutrition]

That color looks so good on you. I love seeing people who know their colors.

[@jacquelinehetharia360]

Love love love all your selfmade items. Please keep sharing to inspire us.

[@giirlchan]

I love the corduroy dress idea!! I wanna make one!! And the laura ashley with the dipped waist looks amazing on you

[@ann-mariejensen2623]

How fun! I love your enthusiasm about all your creations. I’m inspired to start making clothes again.

[@jongliushiu187]

Iam a big fan of dresses.... You are such a creative designer...All the dresses are so beautiful.

[@vickimajor7843]

The maxi is my favorite. I also crochet and haven't made a cardigan for myself.

[@lauriepayseur5897]

All of them are gorgeous and you should be proud to be so accomplished!

[@Luna04567]

The sleeveless dress is my favorite! Perfect year round as a dress or pinafore

[@MsBubu26]

I love how everything suits each others.

[@soniaadams3559]

Very pretty. You certainly have been busy. Thank you for sharing 🙏

[@cherryspritztastic8923]

So inspirational! I have two small boxes of ideas and outfits, many many crop tanks and tops - lets hope I can do it! 🖤🤍

[@GaiaCarney]

Rosery Apparel 💐 I always enjoy your wardrobe reviews! You make lovely clothes, I wonder if you’ve come up with a pattern for a slip?? They are very hard to find these days and I bet you’d design a great one! Thanks 🙏🏾

[@deniwolf100]

Wow! Those colours and fabrics are just gorgeous and I'm in awe of the entire collection! Well done you! 👏 💕

[@peggyolson6511]

Hard to choose a fave, but oh my goodness, that blouse from a vintage table cloth! Such mastery in the way you worked with the pattern of the cloth. So pretty. And so inspiring. There are so many vintage tablecloths, but so many have a flaw here or there. But in a project like this, I think you could avoid those spots if you plan it all out carefully.

[@rashone2879]

I love altering clothes to make more pleasing/flattering styles, but I’m not in the same sewing universe as Rosary Apparel. Incredible, makes me want to step up my skills.

[@annerobinson647]

Such a beautifully curated wardrobe.

[@jollyfish84]

Thanks for all your videos Janelle, I found you while looking for how to make a scrunchie of all things, and then the KZbin algorithm has kept throwing more videos at me...I've always said I don't make clothes... I was going to make the daisy dress after seeing that pattern, but decided it's not really my style, but the Rosa Dress is. So yesterday I bought the Rosa Dress pattern, tiled it (and half way through emailed my local print shop to see if they print A0 size so in future I NEVER have to do that again!) and made a toile of the bodice... and about to cut into my fabric!!!

[@gregariagirl]

How did it turn out?

[@jollyfish84]

@@gregariagirl Really good! I took my time, cut carefully, pinned making sure everything was the right way around and didn't have to unpick anything other than my gathering! I ended up with a dress I can actually wear in public and I've even splurged on some rather nice fabric that I'm now considering one with sleeves! I've got a really long torso so I'll probably drop the waist a bit next time and the neckline is a bit high, but these are things you learn and I'll make some adjustments next time!

[@miroslavafear7926]

What a splendour 🤩Clever Lady with excellent taste.👌Love your video ❤️

[@hopeinparis]

It's a beautiful collection, and your technical skill is excellent. I've been sewing for more than 50 years and sew at a professional level: I can tell when things look homemade and yours do not! You've done a gorgeous job. Bravo!!

[@Manda29.29]

Wow! Everything is lovely! Looking forward to watching your other videos and tutorials! This is my second video of yours. Sewing clothes is intimidating but you make it seem easy! I might just have to give it a try again very soon! I especially love the sweater you knitted 😍, the Laura Ashley Dress, and the floral printed dress you chose as one of your favorites. The fabric and details are STUNNING. I was oooing over it as soon as you pulled it from the rack!

[@jazelcaviness]

I love everything in your collection. I’m so excited for my first dress also! My sewing machine just came today! 🤩🥰

[@charbynovak2061]

💐 I think on the brown checked dress that you don’t like: shorten it a lot, on the flat stomach part, make a fake corset look. 😊👍

[@zhisu2665]

I saw the first blouse and oh my god its everything

[@cookiecuttercottage3088]

The tablecloth blouse is absolutely beautiful! I love that idea! ❤

[@sarac.3259]

I love the first two dresses so much. They are very similar in shape (high waisted) to my favourite dress which is more of a tunic length on me, because I am tall. I have done dressmaking in the past, but studying and family life have left me with less time (and space), and it's too long since I made myself clothes. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@AM-dm1pl]

Definitely orange polka sweater, then sage long sleeve with the textured fabric, then the tablecloth shirt! So unique

[@carolynledford6484]

Girl, can I just say, you are so talented!!! I am a lot older than you; but I absolutely loved everything that you made. My sixteen year old granddaughter would be obsessed with EVERYTHING you made! Keep it up, and I just subscribed to your channel,so I look forward to watching your videos!!

[@erinstar82]

Great video, it really highlights how versatile your patterns are and ideas for pattern hacking them. Looking forward to seeing more in 2022.

[@Matildraon]

My favourite is definitely the Rosa dress and the remakes of the Rosa dress (perfect everyday dress?) Hope I'll make my own dresses this year 🤞🏻

[@RoseryApparel]

Thanks, they are definitely my most worn! Good luck making your own dresses, I’m sure they will be great 😄

[@johannaforsman7466]

You are just so inspirizing person and I have pretty much learned to swe by your tutorials. 😍❤️

[@thecozyfeather]

oh my GOSH!!! Everything is so pretty, I'm obsessed!!! I need to learn to sew better! Definitely going to be watching the tutorials! (watching this while wearing the exact shade of orange you mentioned lol)

[@Aplusinskal]

From having followed at least a dozen other seamstresses here on YT, I nowadays only watch your videos Janelle =) They're so perfect in every way, the colors, the quality, you.. One can watch your videos and become INSPIRED, not as with many other social medias where one becomes anxious and suffers fomo or other negative effects. Instead, I can't wait for life to settle a bit more, so that I can start making at least one dress that you have taught us

[@debbies6192]

[@rookmeeneeseesurn1087]

Very very pretty & I love the colors, thank you very much for sharing I love them all

[@finbohannon9581]

I think all your pieces are lovely and the one you don’t like actually shows off your figure very well and is very flattering. My favourite is your vintage flowery dress. Well done.

[@a.zehrakeskin7685]

My favorites are picnic dress, green daisy dress and gingham everyday dress. All of them are beautiful of course 🤍

7:59, 8:47-Vintage mccall's 7974, 9:33 Hannah wrap skirt in pink & white with ruffle, 10:32 longer Hannah wrap skirt, 11:10 Daisy puff sleeve dress, 12:21 grey 1/2 puff sleeve, long sleeved, long dress, 12:58 altered vintage pattern with vintage fabric, 13:37 Laurs Ashley 4319 MaCall's vintage pattern in gingham-(I absolutely love this one!), 14:43 black & white gingham baby doll is also totally adorable-15:20 the gingham gathered waist long skirt, I LOVE. I would LOVE to see that slit into Japanese hakama pants, with a simple whote tailored 3/4 sleeve with a vest. I think that would be beautiful. Hakama pants are soooo comfy. They look lile a long skirt, very sophisticated, but are not user friendly, and can be made like a wrap skirt at the waist. Idk if you have anything similar, might be a long gaucho pair of slacks. But being my first time ever seeing any of your videos or anything you've made I'm blown away and totally needing to push myself to get into my file cabinet as I have a row of vintage patterns in it and lots of material to start with. That vintage dress and the beginning that you weren't very impressed with was very flattering on your figure and reminded me of the 1940s or something it was just absolutely adorable. It was one of my absolute favorites. Amd the popcorn sweater was totally cute! I could see that in a milky lt pink or red, or white(to go with more bottoms and dresses. My mind is offically blown and I am thrilled you were a suggestion in my opening you tube feed. I camt wait to try some of these things and get those 2 patterns and get going. You have totally motivated me ! I will have to email you when I have gotten moved and gotten going on some things. Thank you for being such an inspiration. You are bmvery blessed and gifted by God and thabk you so much for sharing your blessings snd inspiring others, like me. May God bless and watch over you now and always 🙏❤️

[@Tamarind525]

It’s so fascinating to see what color people choose most often when buying fabric for their own garments. I don’t have a lot of it in my wardrobe, but I LOVE a good chartreuse or lime-colored fabric.

[@MsCraftyWPB]

I love both cardigans. The pink gingham wrap skirt is a favorite too. 😍

[@margauxduprez6460]

I think my favourite would be the McCall's picnic dress that you made recently. It is so flattering and I love the pattern. For the gingham dress that you don't like that much, the front seam makes me think that it could look good as a jumpsuit but I don't know if this is your style. Otherwise, you could turn it into a blouse with a ruffle at the bottom? Happy new year and I love your videos!
