@@LiftingPinsandNeedles omg that’s so weird because I was just on their site looking at the same pattern 😳 then you pop up on KZbin with a sew-along for it 😁 I’ve added it on their website but I’ll buy it from your link cause you get the commission 😁 thank you so very much for sharing this with us 🙏 and I think 🤔 you must be a mind reader lol 😂 lv Bev xx

You’re a brilliant seamstress and your tutorials are SO thorough and understandable . Thank you!

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

You are so welcome!

[@Hiker_who_Sews]

Your filming is top notch. It's so easy to see what you're doing. Thank you! Vogue pattern company re-released their DVF wrap dress pattern, so I think the style must be considered a classic and always "in".

[@courtneywalsh1707]

After I spent 45 min with the instructions trying to figure out the waistband I took a break and decided to search a tutorial for Eden. Was so happy to see you had done one! Made those waist band pieces a chinch watching you. Visual learner for sure! Thanks for another great tutorial!

The top is beautiful too Karina. Styled beautifully. ❤️❤️❤️😍

[@rmorine6394]

I love a wrap dress and I agree with you that they are classic and easy to wear when well-designed. Thanks for your great sewing tips and your amazing styling Karina!

[@IMOO1896]

Very well explained. I’ve wanted to sew a wrap dress, and this might be the one. So many have negative reviews, but the way you’ve demonstrated it seems doable.

[@lauriemarsh6600]

Thank you so much for showing us the tutorials as well as how you styled both versions. It really helps me to envision what it will look like on my body!😊 I love love love the parrot, toucan fabric!!!! Amazing!!!

[@gertrudewelsh781]

I love both your top and the dress. Just beautiful. I made a wrap dress for my daughter in June. She loves it!

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

It’s hard not to love them😀

[@NewsfromtheGrove]

So beautiful, I love to watch how you work, so meticulous!

[@marilynhardman5239]

Absolutely gorgeous Karina, I made wrap dresses in the mid 1970’s, and have always loved them. 💐

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

Wonderful! They are so classic

[@moira7083]

Looks amazing! Thank you for all the work you put into these videos - you are my main go-to for how to information!,

[@ozicats]

Thanks for the inspiration. I just purchased through your link. Maree

[@karolmolpus9536]

You look great in absolutely Everything!!!❤

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

Oh thank you!

[@BramptonGardener]

I love wraps. I have a large bust so it can be a struggle sometimes, but I do find them flattering.

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

Cup sizes are super important for a good fit. That’s why I’m so happy here :)

[@BramptonGardener]

@@LiftingPinsandNeedles cup sizes are awesome 😎

[@jackiturner9228]

So Beautiful! I love your enthusiasm for sewing it’s so helpful.

[@karengoldie6801]

Beautiful!

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@shanalennox4791]

love your video, wish I had it when i was testing! Love the wrap dress, will make another for summer.

[@krankywitch]

Just gorgeous! All the looks 😍 The old “cropped pants make you look shorter” story is only a problem for short people, like 5’2” me. You easily have enough height to ignore it 😊

[@caireenbrain9612]

Beautiful! So well thought out and sewn.

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

Thank you! 😊

[@KarenMcNeil-en2fn]

Wrap style suits you 🙂

[@donnaschindlbeck7457]

Just beautiful Karina! Especially love your “parrot “ dress! Such a lovely print. Thank you for showing us those tricky details.

[@teresas8238]

Very lovely dress on you.

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

Thank you so much 😀

[@kathygann7632]

Just beautiful! I have tons of patterns, and no time so really don’t need another pattern, but you’ve convinced me. I also love the fabric pattern placement on the back. If you look at the pictures on the pattern page, some are tied to the left, and some are tied to the right. You aren’t the only one.

[@normacooper6377]

Love your sewing videos! So interesting and detailed.🎉

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

Glad you like them!

[@lorlor2831]

Wow! Love the dress ❤those parrots are everything! Beautiful on you.

[@moyralouise7123]

Fabulous 🎉🎉🎉

[@KnitzyKitzy]

I was trying to resist because I have so many sewing plans but a true wrap dress with petite height and cup options may be too tempting! Very informative video on how to sew it. You look great in it!

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

Thanks! the cup sizes make a huge difference :)

[@J-UK62]

Gorgeous dress love wrap style. Thanks for sharing Karina xx

[@michelewegman2173]

The parrot dress is sooo pretty and looks so pretty on you!!

[@jbartrug574]

I love it.

[@wiggles0079]

That's a lovely dress you've made and you look beautiful in it. The style really suits you 🎉

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

Thank you so much 😊

[@sandraroper9866]

It really does pay off. It also makes you so proud of the end result. 😊

[@helenwood3199]

❤ how you planned the parrots and tucan placements....Even the yoke has a peeking parrot.😊

[@sherrelstroot3034]

I Karina. Thank you for another awesome video. Your videos are always so interesting and educational. I love your makes. When I was young wrap dresses and wrap.skirts were very popular. Mother made quite a few for me. I will try sewing one for myself. Thank you for your hard work. Also wanted to let you know the sound is messed up in one place.

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

My editing software has been playing games with me for a while, thankfully the glitch is only a few seconds long.

[@christinei5490]

Your dress looks beautiful and Thank you for a great tutorial. I have just purchased the pattern and can’t wait to make it up. I have 4 yards of a lovely heavy viscous which I think this pattern will be perfect. I hope mine turns out as good as yours. x

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

Have fun! I'm sure it will!

[@karenbensdon4643]

Your pattern placement is so flattering!!!

[@jirup]

The burrito yoke and the integrated waist band and ties... true stitch witchery. Thanks for featuring this pattern, I love the techniques and fabrics. The parrots are wild, I would love to find that pattern here. I did see a bed linen set locally, in a colourful large parrot motif, that might be an idea for summer, in a peplum length.

[@sonyasew2]

Lovely 😊

[@TraceyvanWyk]

Hi Karina, thank you for the awesome tutorials as always. They really help making learning new techniques easier. I bought the pattern but not sure about the size to choose. My bust measurement falls into size 16 but my waist measurement is 40” do i need to blend or do you think i could get away with a straight size 16 as it is a wrap

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

No, you need to blend to your waist size because there are darts in the front and the back. It should fit well to get the correct overlap. When I say it's adjustable, I mean that in about 2" of variation tops.

[@kirstypemmapaterson3777]

I take your sewing techniques as gold standard and watch all your videos I always use the affiliate links even if you haven’t done a specific video as I know you will have a technique video that has taught me how to make it better. I’m intrigued how this pattern compares differs from the sew over it Eve wrap dress which I have made with burrito for yokes. I had need to do full bust adjustment and I found the neckline low too. I also found the skirt pieces quite wide. I’m thinking I might have a better starting block with this one than make all the pattern adjustments and skirt might be narrower. I’m always wondering how much fabric you use for a garment as I know you are very cleaver with frugal cutting out and can get more than one garment out of some lengths and you have mentioned in the past that you tend to not buy that much meterage. I guess it’s more work for you to give how much meterage you have used and it’s totally dependant on individuals size what they would use. I just like playing a game in my head when cutting out can I be as resourceful as Karin 😂

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

The Eve dress is made for a B cup and that gave me wrap issues on the bodice that I didn't enjoy at all. A pin and deep neckline is just not what every one wants. The yardage: I'll never mention it because it varies too much with the width of the fabric, size and creative layout one might have. I do use a lot less than what the patterns say though. I don't want to be held accountable for an amount that will not be enough or too much :)

[@BrookeSimmons]

Beautiful! And you explain things so well. Oddly enough I just made a dress with a wrap top, though it wasn't a true wrap dress. I love the wrap peplum top and will probably make one next! I might try bias binding the neckline for the first time (never done that). Your videos are really helpful! One question: do you actually need the dart in the front piece? That is, I know why it's there, but couldn't you also move it into the gathers, or into the neckline itself, then close it on the pattern piece before you cut out, so that you wouldn't have a break in the patterned fabric? (That's what I did with mine -- the closed-dart pattern neckline had a little angle where the line to it intersected the bust apex, but then once you're wearing it, it just closes any potential gaping rather than looking angled.) I'm still learning about pattern drafting and am trying to understand whether that was a styling choice on the part of the pattern makers, or whether that dart really *is* necessary right there. Thank you!

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

You can always transform a dart into something else if you want. What you can't do is just eliminate it into nothing. I would keep it. It gives shape under the bust and it fits well as it is.

[@BrookeSimmons]

@@LiftingPinsandNeedles thank you!

[@helenwood3199]

Your toppers hide your waistline, which, it seems, you've been shrinking, no?

[@mgistcaful]

Do you have any comments on a comparison between this dress and the Petaluma from Itch to Stitch? I know the Petaluma is a faux wrap, but I was thinking more about the fit in the bust area....

[@LiftingPinsandNeedles]

@@mgistcaful I have not made the Petaluma. The size range is smaller for that pattern. The cup sizes should fit well but I know I’d have to lengthen the bodice. I prefer the true wrap because no zipper is needed like in a faux wrap.

[@mgistcaful]

Good point!

[@cindydevling5350]

Katrina, could I do two different dart busts for fit? I have a much smaller breast on Right due to cancer times two on that side, so I usually stay away from patterns with darts, but love this pattern. Thanks
