My Top 7 Love Notions Patterns for Hacking

[@vickiecarney7333]

I have been sewing for over 50yrs and You have opened a new world to me. PDF patterns are fun fun fun!

[@TomKatStitchery]

This makes me so happy!

[@teresavicars9989]

I love how you show us different things we can do with these patterns. You are an enabler in epic proportions. LOL.

Before I even sit down to watch this video, I must declare that you are the reason I can't finish mopping my floors! Thanks for the excuse...smile

[@audreyborders6138]

When life got in the way several years ago, I completely stopped sewing. ~ Your channel popped up the other day, and I've found myself binge watching your videos. Now, I can't wait to start again because watching you has ignited a spark in my creativity.

[@TomKatStitchery]

[@LizzlebyDesign]

Whitney- With so much on your plate at the moment I'm always amazed at how much you bring to the sewing community. This style of video and your fabric/pattern combos are what I head for when I'm in a rut or in danger of losing my mojo. As always, thank you so much for sharing and inspiring us all.

[@TomKatStitchery]

I just love to hear that!

[@vickimorabito2657]

Love how excited you get when you’re imagining how garments would look 🤗

Thanks for the inspiration AND the coupon code! I’m hoping for some trouser hacks suitable for using stretch corduroy. Thanks!

[@TomKatStitchery]

[@evalucilledixon3879]

HINT: for the green Arlington Sweater, I think crochet sleeves would be so perfect this season. Knit the body of the sweater, cuffs, and neck band, and then crochet the sleeves. This is the best inspiration video. Thank you, Whitney. ~ L

[@TomKatStitchery]

[@glendavizecky7581]

Great inspiration video! Already own all these patterns.

[@TomKatStitchery]

[@carolynfields1038]

The Ballad blouse made into the lightweight fabric dress with the short full sleeves and the skirt without the buttons is absolutely stunning. A must have. Thank you for sharing such a great idea.

[@TomKatStitchery]

[@TomKatStitchery]

[@sandimichaels2324]

Thank you for showing this podcast. It will make you think about hacking a pattern you have not tried. I love, love your White Andrin Blouse with Eyelet sleeves. I love the idea of using lace around the sleeves and on the bottom. Love, love the Tessa and the Sybil skirt have so many variations.. This podcast has jumped started your creative side of your brain.

[@TomKatStitchery]

[@TomKatStitchery]

❤️

[@cherie_colours]

I LOVE THIS STYLE OF VIDEO!!!! I've saved it for future reference. Instead of your "Sew the Look" segments you now have "Sew the Hack"! I really really appreciate this type of vlog as the Love Notions pictures aren't very inspiring. I have a few of their patterns and like them very much. Really love your idea's and would be so happy if u did more 😊

[@TomKatStitchery]

I’m so glad you enjoyed this!!

[@menabailey859]

How cool that you are showing how to adjust this patterns! Saves us all some money!

[@TomKatStitchery]

I'm so glad you enjoyed this one!

[@catherinemorrice8703]

Brilliant inspiration,thank you. Found your channel about a month ago and have been binge watching! Lovely to find someone who is enthusiastic about sewing and making clothes, thanks

[@TomKatStitchery]

❤️

[@Maggie-yv5md]

I bought Sybil last night. I have no idea how to use these pdf patterns. The last garment I made was about 25 years ago. Looking forward to learning!

[@Loraleijean]

Love Notions has a tutorial on how to put the pdf patterns together.

[@TomKatStitchery]

❤️

[@kathygann7632]

They are amazingly easy.

[@raeirvine7216]

I love the hack of the Ballad Blouse into the beautiful dress. Thanks so much .You are so talented.

[@TomKatStitchery]

❤️

[@krazycarole]

I've just bought the ballad blouse and the Arlington as I'll be able to get so many looks for every season. Best of all they have full bust fronts. Thanks for highlighting the versatility of all these patterns, my fingers are now itching to stitch.

[@TomKatStitchery]

Oh good!

[@jeanzhsewing]

The Love Notions blog has a tutorial for adding side ties plus doing a slash and spread on the sleeves while making them long. I used it for a semi-formal dress for my daughter. It was so easy & turned out great! Love all your ideas Whitney!

[@TomKatStitchery]

❤️

[@nikki6589]

Whitney your creativity is remarkable I fear it’s way out of my league but I can always dream.

[@TomKatStitchery]

❤️

[@daniellepazz2821]

Love all the hacks, too many I love to list but the stand out for me is definitely the Ballad Blouse hack with the elbow length sleeve with ruffle using shirting along with the tired skirt attached💜💜💜💜💜 great video as always...

[@TomKatStitchery]

❤️

[@sherrycallaway]

I love the aria blouse with the full sleeve hack

[@TomKatStitchery]

[@TomKatStitchery]

❤️

[@alager27]

I love this video, so full of inspiration, I’ m taking notes for my next makes, Id love to see the tessa and sybil hack, or how one calculates the space for the zipper for example, thanks so much for your videos 🙏🏻👌🏻

[@denisedorsey2889]

No zipper. Knit dress pattern. 😊

[@TomKatStitchery]

❤️

[@nadinewoods6971]

I especially loved all your ideas for hacking the Aria. I've never had any good luck with using a blouse pattern without darts, but I do have a TNT blouse pattern that I could use. The Harmony hack with the long flounce at the bottom in gorgeous, in the right fabric, of course. Mostly I love your enthusiasm for creating / recreating beautiful things. This was a really good inspiration video for me. Thank you!

[@TomKatStitchery]

❤️

[@helenberry1942]

Thank you Whitney for all the inspiration! I think I will start with the Arlington sweater. So many new cold weather tops need to be made.

[@TomKatStitchery]

Oh good!

[@TomKatStitchery]

❤️

[@sarahpatedaniell619]

I am so glad I found you on KZbin! Love all your hacking ideas. I really want to try so bad. I used to sew for myself in the 70's, 80's and really love to sew. I have made a goal of making 60% of my clothes in 2023....we'll see, at 73 my shape has changed a bit the biggest change is losing my waist. Love the Tessa, but would want a below knee version with some variation on hem and more of a casual look, for living at the beach in NC. Just concerned as it looks more fitted. OK, looking forward to following and learning more. Take care

[@TomKatStitchery]

❤️

[@prdsjfamily396]

Yes please summer is coming for us. Wardrobe update would be nice Thankyou for sharing The shirts are amazing!
