My name is Amanda. I was am Guyanese-American and I was born and raised in the Bay Area of California. I am a self-taught custom wedding dressmaker, wife and mother of 3, and I am obsessed with all things fashion design related. I enjoy making wedding dresses and special occasion dresses, princess dresses for my 2 sweet toddler girls, and I recently dove into the realm of historical sewing (18th Century). I am a medically retired Army Veteran and I currently reside in a cozy town in North Carolina.
My channel is about special occasion and wedding dress sewing. I post step by step sewing tutorials (easy sewing and advanced sewing), sewing pattern making tutorials, fabric hauls, and vlogs. Before you leave my channel don't forget to SUBSCRIBE I try to post at least once weekly.

Not only is this a beautiful dress, but seeing your babies getting in on the action is so precious. Tiniest and cutest tailor I ever saw!

[@MomthatSews]

Thank you! My son is something else

[@joycefinn5403]

Thank you for showing seamstresses how to iron as you go. It makes the finished garment look so good. You are going places!

[@artemisarojas9999]

I love this video. Thank you for showing your mistakes, this allows us to learn not to make them. And it teaches us not to be discouraged by the mistakes we make.

[@alewis2812]

This would not be a fail for most sewists! Especially the casual ones! You are doing a great job!

[@MsPandaAssassin]

I just found your channel and I want to say, it's so great and informative!! I am considering sewing my own wedding dress, I have sewing experience in the past, but because it's such an important gown, the task is quite stressfull... but watching your videos makes me more confident! with all this information I know I'll be alright! Thank you and please keep your fingers crossed for me! All the best for you and your family!

[@MomthatSews]

Welcome girl! Best of luck on your wedding dress sewing.

[@SimplySiren13]

I don't think you should scrap it. It may not be exactly how you wanted but it is still beautiful and you can make it into something a bit different than the original plan, and then just make another one that way.

[@gabrielledavis9732]

I believe in you! It's beautiful mistake or no try and try again. Experience is the best teacher. No one is perfect. Love you!!!

[@Olayinkathelagosrealtor]

Thank you for sharing this You just made me feel good about myself cause when I make mistakes I feel like maybe I'm not even called to be a designer It gets me really depressed But now from your video I am confident that failing is always part of winning

[@SincerelyMichelleLouise]

Can you do a video how you do your custom pricing and the factors of it....thanks Amanda!!!! Xo I feel like this would be a great vid for your channel. ✌🏼

[@junderwood830]

You are so extremely talented, Amanda! You may need an industrial machine.

[@MomthatSews]

Yes! Currently saving for one.

[@KaysFantasy]

This is SO MY STYLE! 😍✂️📍💖 I wore something like this beauty for my Prom 👗👠🌹

[@brendafuller1806]

You can also add a bling binding to the edge 💕

[@evilrose412]

great that you show the issues one may encounter . Just seeing that might help many to figure out how to do it differently, to avoid some things they don't like. I don't think i will ever attempt such elaborate dress but I love to watch your beautiful pieces anyway :)

[@cristina194]

Felicidades !! muy bonito vestido Mom .

[@brendafuller1806]

Love it’s a beautiful silhouette 😍, a tweek here and there is all you need, please don’t start over

[@evelynsalyuk7324]

Great video, and beautiful dress! I also love seeing little kiddos in there. My two year old daughter loves being next to me when I sew too and it’s so precious. ❤️

[@tiffytattoo2450]

Perfect mix of glam and goth for my little gothic heart =) so beautiful!

[@PiecesOfJenus]

This is still a great tutorial! I love your transparency!

[@MomthatSews]

Thank you so much!

[@alinecarvalho4383]

Meu Deus que vestido lindo!!!!

[@ladenbhutia8886]

I loooooove it

[@hafsamanouni519]

It's a wenderful job. Keep going

[@marisolo9557]

Love your videos

[@iamamarie]

Maybe instead of folding the raw edge in once fold it in twice as if you’re gonna hem and then the edge will be concealed.

[@rosesstyles1015]

Please tell me that you do workshops! I’m trying to make my wedding dress and I am running into straight deadends. It doesn’t look professional and it’s not really (?) what I dreamt of when I started?

[@cheriepolk4531]

Gorgeous!!!

[@Love3nygel]

This dres is beautiful!! what kind of fabric is the champagne layer? Im looking for a good flesh like fabric for a nude looking wedding dress.

[@FieldsofFashion]

You’re so talented! This gown is beautiful!♥️

[@ricarracain4093]

Hallo Amanda! I have to make a Wedding dress for my daughter! Please Tell me where i can buy lacer like the dark one.

[@junderwood830]

If medically retired and you have a diagnosis from a Doctor, you may qualify for help from your local State Rehabilitation. Check into this, please. You will be sent to school and get help buying your equipment needed for your chosen occupation. Amanda, I expect to see your fashions in Bridal or Prom dress stores soon.

[@cutiedoggy475]

Wow I can’t believe you’re making all these gowns on a brother sewing machine.

[@averyartistry3498]

Great video, what type of fabric is the champagne color fabric? Is it Satin stretch

[@MomthatSews]

Yes. Casa collection stretch satin in shifting sand from joanns

[@angelaroman8406]

Hi

[@nayaab4927]

Everything you make is so beautiful. And so many good tips! I was wondering when you pinned your lace, how did you get the pin to not go in to your mannequin fabric- if that makes sense. I have one of those cheaper styrofoam mannequins but I don't think that makes much of a difference, it's just that every time I try to pin things on to other fabrics that are tightly fitting on to the mannequin, somehow most of the pins catch some of the mannequins fabric do my garment is basically stuck to my mannequin. If you have any tips I would appreciate it!

[@arslanjabbar5680]

very super dress i like it

[@MomthatSews]

Thank you

[@morganscharman5027]

Love it! What sewing machine do you have?

[@MomthatSews]

Amjad Hameed هل تتحترف مهنة الخياطة ؟؟ لم افهم بعض الخطوات مثل عند قص القماش على المانيكان هل عذه الطريقة مضمونة ام قصه على البترون اضمن ارجوا الرد بارك الله فبك لا اجيد الانجليزية ولا استطيع سؤالها تحياتي

[@tykeriathompson]

What type of fabric is the Champagne?

[@MomthatSews]

It is the casa collection stretch satin from Joanns

[@malynplaza7409]

I hope that i could fulfill my dreams just like you did

[@cheriepolk4531]

Hi Amanda. I know I'm super late on this... but where did you get the fabric under the lace? The dress is beautiful!

[@MomthatSews]

Joanns crepe back satin in shifting sand

[@cheriepolk4531]

@@MomthatSews OMG... thank you so much!!! I was just looking at this one the other day because my cousin wants me to make her wedding dress and it has that color under the lace of the dress she sent me... It would be my first wedding dress and I am so nervous!!!

[@MomthatSews]

Don’t be girl you got it

[@cheriepolk4531]

@@MomthatSews Thank you!🥰😊❤ Better believe I'm going to be watching many of your videos... this one is kind of close to what she wants just a little different.

[@cheriepolk4531]

@@MomthatSews one more thing if you don't mind... where do you get your bra cups?

[@ibnsina4690]

Please tell me how much is this sewing machine

[@MomthatSews]

Around $450

[@tycollins7841]

Can i buy this pattern from you

[@sandrafrazao4994]

I'm from Brazil, não entendo o que você fala, mas gosto de ver seus vídeos

[@nadiaholmesphotography9089]

For the overlay piece and I have darts in the overlay piece as well as the under champagne fabric? Thanks so much

[@MomthatSews]

The overlay has no seams but the side seam and the champagne fabric has princess seams

[@nadiaholmesphotography9089]

Mom that Sews yes ..... but can’t I do it with seams.... is my question

[@MomthatSews]

Oh sorry. Yes you can but you will see the seaming so it’s personal preference. You could also do appliqué seams

[@nadiaholmesphotography9089]

If I were to use the flat pattern method .... because my dress form is to small for me.... would I the just cut the overly the same size as the sewn champagne fabric. .... I bought some beaded fabric yesterday and I am exited to make a dress for my mom

[@MomthatSews]

Yeap you could cut it out as a pattern piece

[@atenanajafi217]

😍😍😍😍😍

[@chisomodini1675]

I love your teachings but don't seem to follow, Please how do I get tutorials for your patten drafting. Thanks.

[@MomthatSews]

Some of my videos are more of a thought process than tutorial.

[@chisomodini1675]

@@MomthatSews Ok, is there a way I can get through with the pattern. Thanks

So are we ignoring the baby trying to pin fabric??? 🤣

Take away the appliqués in front, can’t really see the raw edge in back, maybe a drape of tulle at the back.... hell idk I’m trying to save the dress life here 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@MomthatSews]

Rightttt!! Girl I already redrafted it and I’m remaking it now. Can’t win them all lmao

[@RhinestoneQueenCostumes]

I loved this video! I’m a dance costume designer (check me out my videos at my Rhinestone Queen Costumes channel). I am stepping outside my comfort zone and making a wedding dress with non-stretch fabric with a lace overlay. Your video was soooo helpful!!! Thank you!!
