Pattern Pals - Ep. 29 - Our finished and Slightly Unfinished Kalle's!

[@cynthiasloan3867]

In all my years of sewing I never thought to reverse the seam width on a curved french seam. Thank you!!!...Good job Arthur :)

[@carrie7209]

I think that patterned fabric looks stunning on you, especially with your lovely hair colour 😊

[@valclements7092]

Hi ladies, I loved all three of your Kallie shirts, dress. Great tips too. Arthur the director did an amazing job. Thank you so much for sharing. Val🇨🇦🇬🇧❤️

[@published1789]

I didn't quite understand the French Seam tip ... that penny will drop someday, no doubt. Thank you so much for the tip about making a wider bias tape. They can always be trimmed, can't they, but so hard to work with if narrow. :-)

[@Giorgia839]

You ladies are looking brilliant! Louise, that green gives me all the heart eyes!!

[@patternpals2999]

Thank you! xxx

[@sandrabilodeau8220]

Thank you for another wonderful video & tips!

[@thedahliasewciety]

I need to make a Kalle now! Great work ladies!

[@clothandthemachine9734]

Lovely to see your Kallies and hear your tips and changes. Thank you ladies💙

[@Autsom57]

Arthur is doing a good job. Today my brother Arthur 68 birthday. Thank you for this site❤️

[@marshaloneagle4646]

The director's commentary was adorable and ty for the tips.

[@Beacreative1]

Thanks for all tips and hints! I really like the bottle green colour on Louise😆

[@margueritec989]

Thank you for all the tips on making this pattern. Your garments all look great on you. Barbara I am too working on my style and rethinking fabrics I have purchased. Still love the fabric just not what I want to wear now. Anyway love what you all have done. And yes Arthur did a wonderful job, I could hear his direction during the filming and it all sounded very professional. 😀

Thanks for the tip about curved French seams. Although I use French seams fairly often, it's easy to forget those finer details. I used a faux(?) flat-felled seam on my Kalle dress and it is holding up very well but it definitely took extra time.

[@sewonsister]

Thanks ladies! Great video as always and I love the director's commentary. Thanks especially for the french seam tip. Happy sewing!

[@dianegould1696]

Love the French seam tip! Will be trying that with works in progress! Thank you! Arthur did a great job!

[@lindadinnocenzo4857]

Thanks for the wonderful video. I’m going to watch it again as I might have missed some of the tips and I’m wondering what the fabrics were. I couldn’t agree more about boob pockets!

[@lisahurst8565]

I love all your Kalles. I have made this twice so far and really like it. I did find that the online sew-a-long instructions were much much better than the pattern instructions. Especially for the burrito yoke and sleeve cuffs. Thanks for the tips!

[@barbaracartwright2737]

Great makes as always girls! Thanks for sharing and the tips ☺

[@debsmadethis]

Love this pattern, yours all look fab! Your colour choices are super ! Love this sneaky glimpse of sewmesunshine shop and Arthur soundtrack 😍

[@christopherarmistead2550]

Love Barbra dress looks gorgeous on her I like the other two as well. Thanks ladies that was a great video. Love X

[@karenwarr4613]

Nice directing from Arthur 😀

[@pamelareptis1532]

Get better soon, Lisa! Arthur was gorgeous in the background. Another great video full of good tips xx

[@Calgary27]

Maybe this is a Canadian vs overseas perspective but that dress looks wonderful on camera and now it definitely is not Hawaiian. Looks very fall and appropriate ❤️ from 🇨🇦 ❤️

[@helenversteeg4516]

The Kallies are very pretty ❤

[@lavadajenkins2955]

Great video girls. I like all three makes.

[@sarahalbert6062]

I love your loud green fabric choice Louise! and that brooch matches your colour choice perfectly, where is it from ,sorry I didn't catch it (must be something wrong with my hearing) love watching your plans and makes

[@patternpals2999]

Hi Sarah, Louise here thank you for watching. The fabric was from my stash and the brooch is from a company called wolf and moon hope that helps

[@helenawagstaff9755]

Looking good ladies, I made this at Ray Stitch in a class and loved the sew. Cropped version and front/back same length and bias bound hem. Great tip about French seams on sleeve, will give it a go. Thanks Lisa. 😊

[@Autsom57]

The colors on your dress looks very Autumny

[@littlehills8605]

I’m making my 2nd Kalle right now but struggled both times with the “burrito” yoke instructions and had to KZbin it. Still got the arms, hem and buttons to do. But may try just hemming the sleeves as it looks great.

[@lisahurst8565]

I found the burrito yoke pattern instructions to be very confusing. The Closet Case website's instructions under sew-a-longs are way better.

[@kerryofarrell5028]

Love, love your sews. Lisa hope you feeling better, your top looked like it had darts in it where as the other girls and the pattern from memory does not.. did you add them? Or was my eyes playing tricks.. Barbara that dress/fabric does suit you..

[@addiekl]

Lisa said she did a full bust adjustment so that's how she got the darts. You are correct that the original Kalle does not have darts.

[@kerryofarrell5028]

@@addiekl thank you x

[@billiev8705]

What pattern is Harriet wearing?? I NEED IT!!

[@patternpals2999]

Harriet wearing ready to wear dress but we agree it is very nice x

[@kathisews9425]

Hey Ladies, thank you so much for the awesome video, I could give 10 thumbs up 😊 I wonder if you would think the Kalle Shirt (Dress) could be made out of a flannel? I have one in my stash that I desperately want to turn into a shirtdress very soon but I am sooo not sure what pattern to take. Please help!

[@patternpals2999]

I don't see any reason why you couldn't use a flannel for it! There's loads of versions of it if you search the #kalleshirtdress hashtag on Instagram, that might help you make up your mind. Lisa 😊

[@Autsom57]

Cute❤️

[@mariamacksoud3080]

Where did you guys go? It is October 22 and there have not been anymore videos. Are you ok?

[@patternpals2999]

We have a video coming out very soon! Stay tuned! :)

[@maureencullen1008]

Who is baby Arthur's mum and can we ,please,see him. Would it ,please,be possible to make a vlog on how you French seam around armholes. Also,I love the sheen on the plain blouses,it looks really expensive.
