How To Create a BEAUTIFUL Romantic Vintage Top From a Plain White Shirt

[@gingerlancaster3033]

My grandmother taught me how to sew many, many, years ago. She was a very traditional seamstress. Your videos have shown me that all those traditional methods, if deviated from, can create quite dramatic and beautiful results. Thank u for helping me to think outside the box❤❤❤

[@tmyershandmade978]

Aww I love that! I struggled with 'sewing class' in school, didn't enjoy sewing until I started to do my own thing.🤗💕💕💕

[@kellievanes9087]

Same! And I'm finding that it is FUN to improvise!!

[@marsharice4799]

Imma be searching for doilies now! Lord have mercy on me! I could watch your videos all day every day.

[@tmyershandmade978]

😍💕💕💕

[@CeliaCase-q6z]

Thanks for another inspirational video Traci! I'm a seamstress who makes historical reenactment clothing, which has to be researched and made with historically accurate fabrics and construction techniques. I was getting kinda burned out. Your projects are so fun and creative, I just love trying them! I look forward to Sunday afternoons to see what you are going to do next. Keep up the great work and ideas, you make sewing fun again!

[@tmyershandmade978]

Aww such an awesome compliment from a talented seamstress!!🤗💕💕💕💕💕💕💕

[@marymem9864]

You make Sunday, Funday!!! You are so loved!!!!!!!!!

[@tmyershandmade978]

Awww love you!🤗💕💕💕💕

[@chrisdunmyer4359]

Thanks to you and your videos I started sewing about 3 to 4 months ago. I am having the best time just being creative, not having to use patterns or traditional rules in sewing/upcycling. I bought a sewing machine and serger and changing my guest room to a sewing room. THANK YOU!!! 🫶

[@tmyershandmade978]

Wonderful! That is music to my ears! Have fun🤗😘💗💕💗💕💗💕

[@amandapittar9398]

Dear Traci, you have given us all so much, both in time and knowledge. I think you need to set up an account so we can all, fund an overlocker/serger for you. I sure others would agree. I would happily contribute. Anyone else?😊😊😊

[@tmyershandmade978]

Awww so sweet! I've considered trying one again, had one years ago and struggled with understanding it for some reason. Can anyone recommend a super 'user friendly' serger?🤗❤❤❤❤

[@bonniebonnie7149]

Yes, the Babylock Sergers have very simple threading. They have an Air puff which sends the thread thru to the loopers. My sewing machine store gave free introductory classes too which really helped!

[@tmyershandmade978]

@bonniebonnie7149 great info! Thank you so much 🤗💕💕💕

[@suemussatto3543]

You weekly remind me to not sweat the small stuff...and making any kind of sewing goof can be ripped out, added to or totally changed ..its suppose to be enjoyable and fun! I love this week's top.❤❤❤ I enjoy your videos so very much. Thank you for sharing your art of clothing tutorials with us😊😊

[@tmyershandmade978]

Aww I love that! Yes, it's just 'stuff' that we can change in any way we want🤗💕💕💕💕💕

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

Tracey the way you used that cute little embroidered runner for the sleeve is pure genius! 🤯 That's it I'm on the hunt for some now 😂❤❤❤

Thank you Traci - the top is so beautiful - the process you go through is always fascinating, instructive and inclusive - it makes even me feel like there's hope for my upcycling journey

I will have to try this sleeve method. I finally am learning to use my sewing machine I bought recently. It’s been a huge learning curve because I know nothing about sewing, but I’ve been happy that I have been able to learn some machine basics pretty quickly to get things started. My sleeves I attached look ok until you look closely and they are a hot mess. lol 😅 There is much room for improvement, but it’s fun to experiment and try some of the things I see you do so thank you sooo much for teaching as you are going along because it’s been invaluable to me for getting started! Another gorgeous creation from you and I so enjoy watching everything you do!! Thank you!! ❤😊

[@tmyershandmade978]

Awww thank you so much! Enjoy your creative process!🤗💕💕💕💕

[@waheedaanwar1078]

Your work is amazing n very inspiring. A couple of things I would do differently is over the girl panel on the sleeve so the raw edge is inside and leave the embroidered corners open like a slit on the Cutwork part. Thanks💕

Thank you so much for this tutorial. I would never have thought to do the sleeves like that with the insert. I am definitely going to have a go at that. I also have been thinking of tea staining my current project and now i know how to do it. I loved the pickets too and that has given me another idea to do 😀

It really does look very old. It's also interesting. For some reason I would like to see it with a medium brown skirt. Most browns look wonderful with pinks. Your wine pants (that you had on earlier) may work well with that top. Well it's beautiful. You know what you have that works best with it. Thank you. It was fun watching you make this.
