I am so happy to have found you ladies. Haha I may have said that once before but the process each of you go thru to finally show the end result is just brilliant! All the trials, errors, help all of your viewers in their journey. Thank you. Beautiful hacks, all of you, just beautiful!!

[@Lily.Mac56]

Love all the hacks ladies. Jemima's top is the winner for me though, I just love how floaty and elegant it is!

[@sewsarahstitch]

Fabulous hacks and so inspiring - I had never considered the sleeveless issue before and want to try it now!

[@Lisa-um8jx]

All of your makes look amazing! I'm obsessed with that co-ord set 😍 Where is the fabric from?

Such an interesting and inspiring video, SOI ladies. I thoroughly enjoyed it. My favourite sewing video for a while. Thank you for the effort of collating and filming this 😄

Excellent hacks ladies. I wonder if you, Alma , could have used the Ultimate shift dress top for your hack. I made this a few times years ago and a very similar shape. I like the way you put the ties down the front like the new Fleur pattern and the Nell pattern. The demonstration of your toile was very useful Rosie and a lovely shirt.I really should make toiles more often. I really like Jemima’s ‘lulu’ top hack but have only got the Eve and lulu pattern. Hacking patterns is the way forward, rather than keep buying more.😉

Thank you! Lisa covered how to combine Lulu and Eve in this Sewalong if you'd like to have a look: kzbin.infoyBVa95s45e0?si=S2HavMctuP6QKDA1

Another enjoyable video 😊. I'm currently extending the Lilian blouse into a fit & flare dress. I was inspired by your Lea dresses. Lx

I've done Doris bodice with sienna skirt

Alma, is the issue you have with sleeveless patterns due to having a bigger bust? A bit of a strange question but as a size 10 with a larger bust, I often run into fit issues in the armhole/bust as well. I'm wondering if I even dare attempt to do this hack 😅

[@SewOverIt]

Hello! Initially I did think it was a bust issue but I tried an FBA on a different cami top and it was completely off, turns out I am actually a dressmaking B cup, which most patterns are drafted for. It's a big old mystery but I think this new technique of just toiling and pinching fabric away is my way to work around the excess fabric 😊

[@eliseh331]

@@SewOverIt thanks for explaining! I wondered, because I know from experience that a lot of issues can arise if your bust is slightly disproportionate to your frame. So happy you found a fix to the problem 🤍
