Great job on the B&T pattern! Melissa designs some of the coolest patterns for Little’s. Might want to check out fabric & ribbing at Jumping June textiles, Rachel has some amazing knits!! Cheers and great job!! 🙂👍🏼

[@Jessalli]

Thanks for this! I'll definitely check it out. Thanks for watching! :)

@@Jessalli what kind fabric you use there again

[@sbev9107]

Thank you for the video. I was having problems with the written instructions. How can I make the cuffs into little pull over mitts?

[@Jessalli]

Hmmm you'll need to add a little semi circular mitten to the cuff. Maybe one day I can do a tutorial on it. In the meantime, I'm sure someone's done a blog post for a similar method? x

Sophie your friend is very lucky to have you to make these wonderful items for her little one. I don't know how long it actually takes you to make one but they are absolutely adorable. Have you made them is solid colors or prints as well? Happy New Year, see you next week.

[@Jessalli]

Hi Angela, Thank you so much. It only takes roughly a couple hours start to finish. I've made other baby items in different colours. But so far both coveralls have been in white. Will be making more though. :) Happy New Year! x

Hello, I’m am very new to sewing and was wondering if you have any advice on buying an overlocker? Which should I buy and how much to spend. I don’t have a lot of space so something not too big would be better. I’ve looked on eBay and saw some by sewland not sure if you have any experience with them. Love your videos, they are really helping me to gather the courage to work with jersey.

[@Jessalli]

Hi Stephanie, Thank you so much! I only have experience with Janome overlockers and I would never buy anything else. They're easy to use, great value for money and user friendly. They do a few different ones, personally I have the 6234XL and it's brilliant. Obviously there are cheaper ones, so don't spend money on it if you won't get the use. I use mine everyday. :) x

[@stephanieurwin4457]

JessalliHandmade thank you for the advice, I will look out for the machine you mentioned. An over locker seems so much easierr when sewing stretch fabrics.

Awesome tutorial. Thank you for sharing. Val🇨🇦

[@Jessalli]

Thanks for watching Val! :)

[@Beapalmer23]

Congratulations Jess on your soon to be little son or daughter.. I’m so excited for you to vlog the birth when it comes xxx

[@Jessalli]

Oh dear!!

[@milkwear642]

Yay!!! Thank you so much! Where do you source your cotton jersey/baby fabrics? xxxx

[@Jessalli]

Thanks for watching! This particular white cotton jersey was from Minerva Crafts but I buy a lot of baby jerseys from myfabrics.co.uk too. :) xx

[@milkwear642]

JessalliHandmade you should try on EBay - massively cheaper and really lovely quality and prints! Xxx

[@Jessalli]

Thank you! I'll check that out! :) xx

[@sallydingle321]

Brilliant tutorial and just what I needed. Do you know the name of the silver circle snaps that you use . I have the snaps that come with the Vario pliers but not those ones. Would like to know what they are, as I think for a baby grow it looks like they sit a bit flatter and may be more comfortable for the baby. I always love your tutorials as they are always so clear and detailed 👍😘

[@Jessalli]

Thank you so much Sally. I always use Prym Jersey press fasteners. And yes they are flatter. Thanks for watching! :) x

[@robyn3349]

Thank you for tutorial! What is the snap machine you are using? Do you recommend it?

[@Jessalli]

Hi Rob. Thanks for watching. I basically just have the cheap plastic snap holder that comes with some packets of snaps. And I have a soft hammer to use with it. You can buy some nice snap clamps so you don't need a hammer, but I've never thought about getting one - although it would be a lot quieter to do! Haha. :)

[@angelamcgovern1525]

Lovely onesie, would have loved to see overlock the tricky bits, as that’s what most of us struggle with

[@Jessalli]

Oh overlocking tiny pieces is so annoying, but you would have just seen me do it really slowly haha. x

[@akeilabriana8659]

So I’m a bit confused how long and wide are you supposed to cut the interfacing?

[@Jessalli]

Hi! If you have the pattern, it'll tell you how much binding to cut for each size. x

[@akeilabriana8659]

@@Jessalli I have the pattern maybe I missed it but I did not see anywhere about the length to cut the binding I believe just the width I’ll have to go back and double check.

[@akeilabriana8659]

@@Jessalli ok I found the instructions for the length and width of the binding thanks!

[@erandiaparna]

How to make the block

[@Jessalli]

It's a pattern from Brindille & Twig (info in description).

[@erinwallace-shephard2964]

It would be great if you would sew this on a regular machine. Thank you.

[@Jessalli]

Hi Erin, When ever I sew using the overlocker, you just sew on your machine with a zig zag stitch. :) x

[@sagepreaumx9903]

I love sewing for children. There aren't the fitting issues and mistakes disappear due to the small size of the garment. FYI when children begin to crawl, don't make them dresses, they need freedom of movement foremost.

[@Jessalli]

Thanks for watching Sage and thanks for the advice. :)
