Part 1 of My Final 2024 Fabric De-Stashing Marathon: Holiday Sewing Projects | Thrills and Stitches

[@SaucyMamas]

I am brand new to the art of sewing. I’ll be self taught and I can already tell there’s an entire world of sewing and language to learn but I very much enjoyed this video. Amazing to see someone work through projects who’s gone to fashion school and drafts their own patterns! Cannot wait to watch and learn more. Stunning fabrics and pieces. Thank you for sharing.

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Welcome, it’s fun here! Thank you, I am glad you enjoyed it and wish you much joy and fun on your sewing adventures 🤗 Hopefully I can be of some help along the way 🪡

[@allisonc.-jt4rc]

Yeah, I love sewing marathons! Also, not wanting to leave the house for a zipper is so relatable. 🌧️☺️

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Right?! Glad I didn’t have to go in the end ☺️

[@chlomo2618]

I like your aesthetically appealing outdoor reveals, but appreciate it must be a bit of a mission to film them. But for me, the most important thing is to really be able to see the details. Taking time over the pattern's features, and showing the dress from the back (you sometimes don't really show the back, or move quite quickly so we don't really get a chance to see it). You take the trouble to design and sew your garments, so it's great to give them the attention they deserve.

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Thank you, I‘ll take the feedback! I didn’t realised the thing about the back, but now you said it it’s pretty obvious! I’ll keep that in mind next year ☺️

[@kattetzlaff4051]

For your ask me anything, please share your KZbin favorites (the people who's uploads you wait for)!

[@jenniferr2033]

The real mvp is asking questions i was too afraid to ask

[@kattetzlaff4051]

​@jenniferr2033 is it rude to ask? Oops 😅 I thought she would have the best ever list of sewing ..

[@jenniferr2033]

@kattetzlaff4051 i too dont think it is rude??? The problem with the list is that it would be free promotion for the other channels. I dont think she is that type of person to not wish other people success but it is a point to consider

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Hi all! I would most definitely share my favourites! I’m all about lifting others up and sharing the good stuff ☺️✨ Not least because others have kindly given me shoutouts in the past! I will be sure the share a list when I do the next AMA.

[@muellerm32]

I love to learn more about fabric in 2025! Maybe take us fabric shopping

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Good idea! I’ll make sure to keep it in mind 👌

[@lidabard2121]

The red skirt is the winner for me. It is very flattering on you.

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Thank you ☺️

[@teruldacz]

Hi, I have a suggestion for next year's sewing pattern. I'm really missing pant patterns that would fit good on someone with bigger waist to hip ratio. I am 88-90 cm in the waist and around 124 in the hips so finding something that excentuates that and is comfortable is almost impossible. Also making more tops and blouses to wear with skirts and pants would be amazing. ❤

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Love the suggestion! Trouser patterns are the next hurdle for me to take, I hope 2025 is the year ☺️

[@bdelgador]

Love the red skirt! It has the perfect amount of "puff". 💖

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Thank you! I think it ended up looking pretty cute ☺️✨

[@love2dancee14]

I would love to see a jumpsuit pattern (like the green one you did) or the wrap dress 👀😬. I’m so glad you told us that you want to do biweekly scheduling. Your videos are apart of my weekly routine so I do feel a little sad when you don’t post. Thanks for giving us a head up. ❤️❤️The vampires wife wrapsody dress you recreated had a very beautiful reveal toward the end so I think it’s really awesome that you want to put more thought into videos even if it means biweekly videos. I also think it’ll give you a bit of a necessary break because I feel like you get sick around the same time every year. So maybe this is really good thing. 😂

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Haha, you see right through me I can tell! The wrap dress is still in the works, and I attempted a jumpsuit pattern not too long ago but put it aside at the time because of complexity. I’m glad you enjoy my videos so much 💙 That really makes me happy. I might squeeze in a vlog here or there to up quantity of videos and show my face a bit more. I’m looking forward to see how 2025 will develop ☺️

[@sunshinexoxo4984]

The blue dress is amazing

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Thank you 💙

[@yvettefeyjoo-booth2670]

Love your content! As for ideas on creating sewing patterns, I would love to see more pants. I’m a big fan of the high waisted wide leg look. I have a problem with fitting. Especially in the hip and crotch area lol! You create such beautiful garments. Always look forward to your videos. Thank you. 😄

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Thank you so much, I‘m glad you enjoy my stuff ☺️ noted! Trousers/pants will be the next challenge to take for me. Hopefully 2025 will be there where I can make it happen!

Yeeess new video just as I got a break from sewing to eat lunch 🤩🤩🤩

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Perfect timing 💥

[@michelewegman2173]

Absolutely beautiful makes!! The black skirt is my favorite, but all of them are sooo cute!!

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Thank you ❤️

[@kristenwyatt3971]

I love how the red bubble skirt turned out! Love the shape and I think it has the perfect amount of volume! I’m not sure if you’ve done anything similar to this before, but it would be cool to see your take on a pattern for a two piece suiting set with a blazer-type situation and a skirt or pants. Also, definitely think if the bi-weekly cadence fits your schedule/needs better, we’re all happy with whatever allows you the time you need. Can’t wait to see what you have in store for us content-wise next year!!

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Thank you ☺️ I’m thinking about doing a twin set pattern next year with a jacket + mini skirt and short option. It’s high up on the list!

[@bea6987]

Omg the blue dress is stunning! Merry Christmas!

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Thank you so much 💙 Merry Christmas to you too ✨

Oohh everything turned out so beautiful!! The bow in the skirt is an amazing idea ❤

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Thank you! 😊

[@evanick823]

Sewing with silk is always difficult and so well done for getting it right. The dress looks lovely and the skirts, I may have a go at making the bubble skirt.

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Thank you! 😊 I love the bubble skirt, and it’s super easy and beginner friendly

[@taylormmmf]

New to sewing and new follower (found you through Etsy! Love your patterns). Idea for content that I think could be really helpful as a viewer but also keep up the same schedule which I think is generally good as a growing channel is if you did the bi-weekly videos of your regular format and then bi-weekly “quickie” videos that show a skill (how-to) or go over fav fabrics or recommendations for helpful sewing tools etc (shorter format where you’re not having to make actual pieces?) just a thought!! Thank you for your content 🫶

[@zsuzsannaszunyogh4402]

I love all your makings. Could you maybe make a video on how to choose the right fabric to different projects? Thanks 😊

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Someone else also asked for that! I will be sure to make a video on that next year ☺️👌

[@tinasmith9998]

I love your current content. And I would agree I love your reveals. But I really like that you follow along with your thought process right from the design to the execution of the pattern. As a relatively new sewist, it has made me a lot more brave to try my own hacks.

[@marianellavelasquezcruces2878]

Hello! One idea! Maybe you can make a series about what fabrics are good for your patterns.. because for me that’s a struggle.. and they can be videos just chatting and having ideas about styles or colors.. 🤓

[@ThrillsandStitches]

That’s a great idea! I’ve noticed that’s something that a lot of people would be interested in!

[@nathaliepalladino4128]

Yeah! Perfect video and now I can’t wait for the next❤

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Yay! Next one’s coming soon ✨

[@dinaelbishbishi7090]

Amazing,especially the blue dress😍 waiting for part 2

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Thank you ☺️ part two is coming soon!

[@melekkeskin4173]

I was just thinking to myself; "A destashing video would be fun right now."

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Perfect timing 💥

[@bublegumpink8549]

Looking fabulous as usal 😊

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Thank you 😊

[@tanyac9262]

Perfection😊

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Thank you! 😊

[@Golfgirlv]

Those are all fabulous. I think the red bubble skirt is ‘better’ than the big puffy ones. It looks very nice on you!

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Thank you so much ☺️ spoiler: there will be more bubble skirt action in part two, so we will have something to compare it to!

[@irinazhilina8830]

Beautiful dress, beautiful you💙💙💙

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Thank you so much 💙

[@anitacollingwood4224]

Lovely outfits 😊 well done!

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Thank you!! 😊

[@marinagoncalves589]

i would love to see some lounge wear videos :)

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Noted! January and February might lend themselves for lounge wear videos 😏

[@zukoinstyle]

Your destashing videos are top knotch❤❤❤❤

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Thank you, I’m glad you think so ☺️

[@neneirene]

love these videos ❤

[@ThrillsandStitches]

So glad! 🥰

[@theknitsitch]

Would love to see you make (and pattern) more everyday wear. Examples: trousers, t-shirts (with cutouts or extra details) tank tops, cardigans and midi skirts. I want my whole wardrobe to be comfortable for everyday but interesting, colorful and fun. Your videos are very inspiring ❤

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Thank you ❤️ That’s absolutely something that’s been on my mind! Glad to hear you’d be interested in that

[@chokaylatte]

i would love to see how you make your patterns! i always wonder how that works with sizing but also how it works to make it all into a4 size and stuff!

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Thank you! I do have a couple of vlogs from early last year when I made my first few patterns which show a bit of the process. This is Kachi has great tutorials on how to digitise patterns, I learned a lot from her so would recommend watching those as well ☺️

[@kimharrison8380]

Amazing as always. Such an inspiration to watch your ideas from fabric, to pattern, to garment come to life.

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Thank you so much, I‘m glad you think so 🥰

[@ramblingrebeca]

Bubble skirts were a thing here in Brazil some 15 years ago (damn I'm getting old) and it wasn't my favorite but I actually liked the proportion on your skirt way better than what is usually out there. ❤

[@ramblingrebeca]

Also I'd really like to see an oversize button up shirt or maybe a wrap blouse for new patterns :)

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Thank you, I‘m glad you liked it ☺️ I have a tutorial on how to self-draft a shirt, but no downloadable pattern yet. Will keep it in mind gor next year ☺️

[@KittyHurryUp]

Hi Elisa, i can imagine how much pressure it is to post every week and i totally understand if you decide to post every second week. 😊 I subscribed you so I’ll get notifications anyway. I’m happy to watch your videos but you should also have fun in your own life, not being slaved to make Videos to keep up the schedule.

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Thank you, that means a lot ❤️ I‘m glad you enjoy my videos and I hope you’ll keep loving them ☺️✨

[@LRWdesign]

I don’t mind if you do less videos, as long as you continue to make your fantastic patterns and upload tutorials. 🥰❤👍

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Oh thank you! I certainly will ☺️✨

[@annapaola7703]

surprisingly, I love the bubble skirt. it's puffy enough. not too much, just right. but...on boy the blue velvet dress. 😍 I love it. I'm looking for blue velvet too, possibly not poliester.. I just bought a vintage blue velvet blazer and I'm in my velvet era. you've been such a good inspiration routine 😊 since the the vampire wife dress more or less, when I landend on your YT channel. I loved your in -detail drafting videos.

[@ThrillsandStitches]

I love velvet! It’s a bit of a love-hate-Situation because it’s difficult to work with, but once it’s done it’s amazing! ☺️ Thank you so much, I’m glad you like the newest makes and thankful that you’ve been watching and enjoying my stuff for so long 🥰✨

[@constancemaymiller]

Omg that silk velvet looked terrible to work with but the result was so good ❤

[@ThrillsandStitches]

It was! I’m glad it turned out well ☺️

[@khulood.0]

the red skirt is gourgues.

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Thank you ❤️

[@tinasmith9998]

I love your current content. If you were to ask me, I would suggest still uploading weekly as that would help with your growth. Keep your content the same or whatever you want because this channel is about you which just make them span over two weeks instead of one. And I would agree I love your reveals. But I really like that you follow along with your thought process right from the design to the execution of the pattern. As a relatively new Soest, it has made me a lot more brave to try my own hacks..

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Thank you, I appreciate our opinion! ☺️ I‘m glad you enjoy my videos - I will see how the year plays out!

[@rebeccafindlay9068]

Is that a marker on your shears for seam allowance?

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Yes! A handy little gadget

[@brendastevens8325]

Gorgeous makes ..love the dress Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Thank you! heart ❤️ You too!
