[@debramejia5091]

I love the way you show analysis of which sizes to cut & your pattern grading. Very helpful to a beginner!

[@SewingBunny]

Ahh thank you so much! I’m so pleased you enjoyed x

[@cathleenvance4441]

Hi Michelle, I love the way you go through and check the pattern size with us like you do and then grade your pattern...I just bought this pattern and I was so excited when I saw your sew along. I always check your channel to see if you've already made the pattern I just purchased lol....And I can't wait to make mine. I just hope it looks as good on me as it does on you...Well done you.

[@SewingBunny]

Ohh best of luck when you make yours 😁 I am so glad to hear you find my sew alongs helpful that really means a lot xx

[@theresawagner2642]

Gorgeous and I do love that fabric.

[@SewingBunny]

Thank you so much 😊

[@Kateskismet]

Thank you for another great sewalong Michelle. I ended up getting this and having a go at version b. Really chuffed with myself. Your videos are such a great help. You are a brilliant teacher. Thank you 😊

[@davylonbarnett8485]

Fantastic job. I love the dress and it looks so good on you. I learn a lot from watching your sew along videos. Thank you for taking the time and effort to film these for us.

[@SewingBunny]

Aww you are so welcome! It makes me so happy that you enjoy watching 🥰

[@maggiesanderson818]

Lovely dress and it looks really nice on you. Your Sew Alongs are always great and you explain everything really clearly. Bring on summer and warmer weather!

[@SewingBunny]

Thank you so much for watching 😁 so glad you enjoy my sew alongs 🥰 x

[@annettemorris2861]

Thank you .... just returned to sewing after many years. I want to make a few of these dresses for my holiday next year and found your video very helpful and enjoyable. Thank you

[@SewingBunny]

Thank you so pleased you found it helpful x

[@sewgems]

Love your sew alongs Michelle. You're dress is gorgeous and really suits you 😍 Love it when Bentley and Misty join you, Bentley looked so comfy in his box 🥰 xx

[@SewingBunny]

Ahh thank you so much for watching! Yeah my little fuzzy friends always like to pop in and see me sometimes whilst I sew and a lot of the time try to ‘help’ 😂

[@pharbottle]

Hi Michelle! I’ve been watching your videos for awhile now, just sort of lurking to see if I was going to subscribe. Well I think your an excellent sewist so I indeed subscribed. You’re quite thorough in describing every step in your sew a longs. I totally enjoy watching your vlog! I’ve retired as a sewing instructor, I only teach my grand children how to sew now. Here in Hawaii, sewing is not taught in schools like before. You would make an excellent instructor!

[@SewingBunny]

Ah thank you so much for watching and subscribing 😁 so lovely to hear you enjoy my videos and such a compliment that you think I would make a good instructor that is so kind of you to say ❤️

[@annettecowburn1096]

Oh Michelle I love it! It's great that you dont need a zip and you got it out of 2 metres of fabric too. Beautiful fabric and it really suits you.

[@SewingBunny]

Aww thank you so much 🥰 I just need the sun now ☀️😁

[@newcreations1064]

You look lovely in your dress Michelle. Loved the sew along,so clear and easy to follow.Thank you so much.hugs xx Jean.

[@SewingBunny]

Aww thank you! Such a lovely compliment that you think I explain things well 😁💖

[@kerryofarrell6581]

Thank you for a wonderful KZbin. I at home today with the flu and stumbled onto this and enjoyed.. nothing better, when you cannot sew yourself, watch some making something.. seriously loved your fabric.. I was practically screaming at the telly that I did not think.you needed a zip.. and you must have heard me as you came to the same conclusion.. I look forward to goi g through your channel and viewing your other KZbin.. Again, thank you from.my sick bed..

[@SewingBunny]

Oh no I hope you get better soon! Sending virtual hugs 🤗 I’m so happy I could keep you company for a little bit, so glad you enjoyed watching xx

[@marlenep2644]

If it fits, I sits! Love Bentley.💕 You're absolutely right about using the shoulders/bust measurement to pick a pattern size and adjust for the waist and hips. Much easier to alter those measurements than the reverse. Love this dress on you! Hurry up summer.. 😉

[@SewingBunny]

Haha yeah Bentley does love a box 🐈😻 thank you so much for watching! Yes bring on the sun ☀️ I can’t wait to wear this dress x

[@phaedrapotter7175]

Hello Michelle, thank you for a great video. Your dress looks amazing on you and the colours in the fabric suit you so well. Loved Misty and Bentley's contributions, so cute! I always love the way you explain how to choose the correct size and grading patterns it is so helpful, thank you.

[@SewingBunny]

Ahh thank l you so much for watching! I’m so glad that you find the sizing bits I talk about helpful 🥰 yeah I can’t do a sew along without at least 1 of them stealing the show 😂

[@jaydee7471]

hi, loved the podcast and cameos by cats! you did an excellent job on the dress tutorial. The tips about grading out etc., were very, very helpful. I now have this on my shopping list and feel I can make it with confidence using your wee tutorial. It was very courageous of you to brave the gale to bring us a twirl. looks lovely on😊

[@SewingBunny]

Aww thank you! So pleased that you found what I showed helpful 😁 hope you have fun making it if you do decide to give it a go 👍 yeah it was a bit blustery out there 🤣

[@magenta0225]

Thank you for this! I'm getting ready to do the same version & will need to grade as you did. This is the first tutorial that I've seen suggesting to check finished garment measurements, and where to find them...,hopefully this will help me with more accurate sizing. You are an excellent sewing teacher, and your dress looks beautiful on you!

[@SewingBunny]

Oh that’s so lovely of you to comment 🥰 so pleased you found it helpful x

[@elainebyrne3081]

beautiful dress.........will definitely be making this dress.........it amazes me that you can sew standing......i definitely have to sit.........thank you for a great video

[@SewingBunny]

Haha I know a few people think it is a little odd 🤣 I do sit and sew sometimes but standing can be quite nice as I keep moving around so I don’t get too stiff x

[@Mimi-pm4vp]

You look amazing in that dress. Thank you for the tutorial. I am going to buy that McCall's pattern. I love it.

[@anitaholt7783]

Your dress is gorgeous and the strong colours really suit you. xx

[@SewingBunny]

Aww thank you so much 🥰

[@cindywutzke7862]

When you did the arm hole finish you could have stitched in the ditch. It would've helped you turn over the material to give a very clean edge. Just letting you know in case you didn't. Love the fabric you chose.

[@SewingDee]

Your dress looks terrific Michelle. Such a great fit, so you obviously graded well. So sweet to see Bentley enjoying the box - what are they like? 😂

[@SewingBunny]

Thank you 🥰 I’m always a little nervous when grading but I’m super happy with how it turned out! Yeah cats always want to ‘help’ when they know I am filming haha!!

[@perryandmichelestorkson5887]

Thank you so very much for going over. how you do the sizing! That was so helpful for me because that’s where I really struggle with patterns! I actually have that pattern on my list to make :-)

[@SewingBunny]

You are very welcome! I am so pleased you found it helpful ❤️

[@sheilamitchell9108]

I have got the bought pattern with the red dress on. I’m am making the wrap front dress will send a picture when finished but it might be a little while as I making 3 baby quilts at the moment your fabric is gorgeous and the dress fits beautifully.It’s a shame the box wasn’t a little bit bigger then Bentley would have been able to curl up. He is so cute

[@SewingBunny]

Ohh lovely can’t wait to see it when you have finished! Good luck with the baby quilts what lovely projects 😁 x

[@foxeymoore]

Just bought this pattern after watching Devon Thread Tales.Thank you so much for this brilliant Sew Along. Your dress looked fabulous and I hope you are still wearing it. I wonder did you make more or perhaps tried one of the other designs..💖

[@SewingBunny]

Thank you! I do still wear it, I haven’t made any of the other views but I am tempted x

[@deniseblake6214]

Forgot to mention that I also love your cats joining in 🤩

[@vivlee3840]

I could see you wouldn't need a zip! You made such a lovely job I've ordered the pattern for myself except I know I'll have to adapt the shoulders as they are always too wide.

[@SewingBunny]

Haha yeah glad I thought to try it on first, so pleased I didn’t need a zip! I hope you enjoy making yours when you get round to it xx

Aww thank you so much 🥰 yeah it wouldn’t be a sew along without the cats joining in somewhere 😂

[@andyk1k1]

Really curious to see you wrap your fabric pieces in the tracing paper and how you work around having a smallish cutting table xx

[@Michelleshiri]

Hi Michelle, love your videos. I love how you showed how to grade the front of the skirt. Did you also grade the back of the skirt? If yes, did you use the same method as you used in the front? (There is no marking in the back skirt as the front skirt). Thank you 🥰

[@bredalynch35]

Hi Michelle got this pattern I'm doing style D I'm bit confused with the bodice part looking at instructions it looks like it has double sided bodice is that correct?... Thanks Breda

[@SewingBunny]

Hiya I haven’t made view D but I had a look at the packet. Looks like view C is where you have an overlay extra piece of fabric. View D is just single layers, if you go to the instructions for where it says ‘bodice C/D’ it tells you to layer the 2 pieces for view C but then after that step it is for the beginning of view D and carrying on with view C. Hope that makes sense x

[@bredalynch35]

Thanks Michelle

[@Wannaba10]

Great video 😃

Thank you, Michelle! I plan to make one this summer. When I do I'll tag you in instagram.

Boxes = CAT TRAPS... LOL. He says... "If I fits I sits!" ;)

[@SewingBunny]

Haha 😂 yes exactly! It does make me laugh so much he loves a box 📦

[@richardsimpson6773]

Really well explained regarding the sizing - do you ever need to do length adjustments? Also wondering what your tracing paper is.

[@SewingBunny]

I did lengthen the skirt at the bottom and I do sometimes have to alter waist lines etc.. it can be a bit hit and miss most of the time I get it about right 😁 the tracing paper is slightly different from my usual as it is wider and a bit thicker. I added it at the bottom of my description box if you wanted to get some xx

[@axelandpae]

I have the same problem about table been to small. I bought a piece of bigger wood and put it on top. It work a lot better. Hope it makes sense english is not my first language still learning 😊

[@SewingBunny]

Ahh yes that’s a great idea 😁👍

[@adadavis2443]

Love the way you show pattern and size

[@SewingBunny]

Thank you so much for letting me know! I remember how hard it was when I started sewing and understanding sizing.... it can be so confusing 🤣

[@tranquilityyogapilates2946]

Made this 2019 winter for holidays so not worn A yet but going to make D. It came up a bit short for me

[@SewingBunny]

That’s great you made it too 👍 I lengthened it thankfully 😅 x

Hi Michelle how long have you used Tracing paper. Is this the best way to do your fabric

[@SewingBunny]

I have always traced my patterns. I find it means that can make any changes easily without ruining the original 😁

[@viddy8379]

Thankyou, Where do you get your tracing paper, I am trying to buy some here in Australia

[@SewingBunny]

The stuff in the video I used is new to me which I got from eBay, it’s not my favourite as it is quite thick. I just try out different ones until I find one I like 😂

[@laurajohnson2674]

So. After a year I am finally putting this dress together. I cut it out and then didn't touch it for months! I thought I wouldn't be able to either after I managed to drop my machine needle straight down into the base of my sewing machine...somehow my husband and I fished it out so i could get started. How random is that????

[@SewingBunny]

I have done that before where a needle has fallen into the plate 😂 hope you enjoy making the dress x

[@Ajcg28123]

Hi Have you made the D dress on the M7116 pattern. Thank you

[@SewingBunny]

No haven’t made view D unfortunately x

[@sew_So_beautiful]

Lol at least your cats are relatively well behaved. Mine sat between me and the sewing machine, right on the fabric I was sewing, put his front paws on my chest, and proceeded to lick me all over the face. He wouldn't take no for an answer. This behaviour continued this morning when I attempted to put together a PDF pattern, so that was a complete write off. He was always the well behaved one when my little girl cat Chloe was still alive, and she was the sewing pest, but now he seems to think its his job to take over where she left off and then some.

[@SewingBunny]

Aww bless him! He sounds like such a loving boy 😻 they don’t like it when our attention isn’t fully on them do they 🤣 x

[@andyk1k1]

Hi, could I ask where you get your wide tracing paper please?

[@SewingBunny]

Yeah sure it’s not my normal stuff but trying lots of different types! I got this one from eBay www.ebay.co.uk/itm/283419270855

You could use a light box, or if you have a large window and tape your pattern and paper and trace that way
