🎉thanks

[@sharongallagher3443]

Loved your pattern selections. I bought the Lois pattern.

[@SewEssential]

Ah thanks for the order Sharon, it is honestly such a great pattern I'm sure I will make it again, I love wearing it

[@kimtilley7936]

Hello Lucy, wow, what wonderful patterns. However I'm not suprised. In fact I have most of them. I have already made Simplicity 9595 wrap pants in a light weight cotton. They were such a quick make, wore them so many times during my summer holiday, just perfect. Also have made Ogden Cami several times. And I have patterns ready to make, the Shelby dress, Patina blouse and Tessuti Lois dress.... all fabulous patterns. Thank you for sharing.

[@SewEssential]

Great minds think alike! Sounds like you've got all the best patterns right there - hours and hours of sewing fun at your fingertips!

[@emmabuxton7971]

Lovely fabrics and patterns Lucy. My favorites were the Shelby and Lois dressed. I haven't made either of those but similar - Simplicity 8875 views B and D and two blouses of McCalls 8067.

[@SewEssential]

Thank you, I've made Simplicity 8875 it is such a great pattern and I love that McCalls one too.

[@beverleypark9341]

Very inspirational, great patterns that I feel will work well for 2024 to! I love the blue fabric with the pink dots 💙

[@SewEssential]

Thanks for watching and commenting and, yes, that fabric is so pretty, just love the colour combination.

[@lisagandola2254]

Thanks Lucy, lovely patterns and fabrics. I think I need to make up some dog walking clothes, I don't seem to have any other social events to wear those lovely dresses, although I do love making them ❤

[@SewEssential]

I know what you mean, I spend a lot of time in leggings and a sweatshirt at weekends at sports clubs or walking! Did you see my Mile End sweatshirt video? That has been on strong repeat for my walks since I made it.

Great video Lucy as always,my favourite moment of the week. I have made the Patina but found the sleeves really huge, think someone described them as sails of a ship!! I had to adjust afterwards. Also made the Shelby which I will definitely make again. I think my favourite pattern you made last year was the summer dress with the cut out back, have the pattern but not yet made, sorry am away at moment so can't remember number etc but you inserted bra cups to avoid the 'hiding your bra strap' saga, great tip. Thank you for your inspiration

[@dazzys4618]

Thanks Lucy, lovely fabric choices and you’ve reminded me I have the Shelby, so inspired to revisit as I haven’t thought about a longer version.

[@SewEssential]

I haven't made the longer version either and definitely need to give that view a try I'm sure I'll love it as much as the shorter version

[@michaelgracewatts2943]

Loved the patterns and fabrics, Lucy. I have made the New Look 6692 which I love and this year would choose the Patina blouse, Simplicity 9702 and Lois Dresses to make...Grace

[@SewEssential]

Sounds like a fun year ahead Grace, New Look 6692 is such a beauty I must get around to making that!

[@carolinesewall9319]

Thank you

[@pamanderson2755]

Hi Lucy I made the Tessuti Lois dress in a viscose crepe which looks great (I made bodice adjustments to reduce the cleavage as a lot of people did) and I’ve got the Pattina blouse cut out ready to sew.

[@252jdw1]

I was looking at the Lois but was worried that it was too low cut for my liking. Be interested to hear how you altered this as it looks like an amazing dress.

[@SewEssential]

Thanks for sharing, they are both such wonderful patterns, enjoy the Patina!

[@jeankumm]

Do you have any corset patterns Lucy.

[@carolinesewall9319]

Hi I watch you every week but on tv n can’t get the links below Could u consider doing plus size patterns best for 2023 please.

[@SewEssential]

If you check out the video on your phone you will be able to see the links there's usually something that says 'see more' or 'more info' and if you click it, it will give you the full description and links. Unfortunately I can't filter the patterns to show me the best sellers by plus size so I'm afraid I can't do that, but I will continue to share plus size patterns in my videos and we are getting more and more of them now thankfully

[@joannabatte6759]

I'm desperate to make the Lois dress but unfortunately it is not very size inclusive. It is just one size too small. I wish they would expand the size range.

[@shannonkumm3536]

Do you sell patterns for a corset ? If you do how much and can it be delivered to South Africa ?

[@maxinebracey9176]

Lovely patterns especially the Lois dress - but shame it's only upto size 16!

[@SewEssential]

Yes not the most size inclusive, sorry about that. We do have some great pattern ranges that are more size inclusive, if you look back through my videos I did a round up of the most inclusive brands. You Can find it here kzbin.info/www/bejne/qmTbnYaKmaiqr9U
