Thank you!!

[@sosewmad]

Gotta love an LB! Looking forward to catching up on Monday

[@onegirlcreates]

Same here! I should be finished with mine today. xx

I’m loving that blue viscose fabric. I’m not into floral prints, and I thought that this was a lovely alternative.

[@onegirlcreates]

Glad you like it! Thank you. xx

[@karolmolpus9536]

Lavender print will be pretty on you!😊

[@onegirlcreates]

Oh thank you!

[@karolmolpus9536]

Love the blue with reeds 😮

[@onegirlcreates]

There is something about it, isn't there. xx

So so lovely to see you and see what you’ve been up too. That LB Pullover is gorgeous on you, wonderful fabric too, I have happy memories of the day you bought that. Love your Fabric Land fabrics too. My last indigo I put a waist tie on and I much prefer it to my one without a tie. Hope this helps. Lots of love ❤❤

[@onegirlcreates]

Thanks lovely lady. Hope you are well. xxx

Your green dress was lovely once you had tweaked the back. I always like to lower neckline as well. Looking forward to seeing your makes with your new fabrics. You inspire me to keep sewing clothes for myself and my family.

[@onegirlcreates]

Thank you so much! xx

Love you LB pullover! Mine keeps getting bumped down the makes list 🤪 see you Monday 😁😍

[@onegirlcreates]

It's the perfect quick fix for after the jeans!

[@karolmolpus9536]

You would like Style Arc Hope dress!!!

[@onegirlcreates]

I will have a look at that thank you. xx

[@helenslade2601]

Your indigo looks lovely, and the colour suits you so well. Love the pullover as well, I have that colourway in the cable knit, but I'm not sure what to make yet 😊

[@onegirlcreates]

Thank you so much. Please do tell me what you eventually make, I would love to know. xx

Just thinking. Maybe go by your upper bust size for the bodice and do a full bust adjustment. Do not grade out for the waist as the FBA will result in the addition being added to the front waist. In the past, I made a few Indigos in Size 5 without an FBA.....result - pulled across the bust. Definitely add waist ties 😊 I love the idea of lowering the neckline. My birthday is the 28th of this month. I'm trying to decide what patterns to make-up for the number of celebratory occasions I have booked. Hope your enjoying your new job xx

[@onegirlcreates]

Hey, we're birthday twinnies!!! Yeah, I think I will do an FBA, I was trying to avoid it but I think I need to. Lowering the neckline makes a huge difference to my comfort, I definitely recommend it. Thank you for the job comment. It's going well, still in the learning phase but its definitely getting easier. xx

[@sandie4yeshua]

@onegirlcreates Glad the job is going well. My late-dad was at my birth (rare in the 60s however i was his first born & went crazy saying he had to be in the room) - he always insisted I was born just after midnight (29th). I will lower the neckline as I think it would be more flattering. An FBA is the way to go as if one sews the size to fit the bust, above the bust can be too big. I may not comment on all your vids however I watch and enjoy x

[@tinajenkins6342]

You was so lucky, I just missed out of the sewing machine bag, I was a bit too late☹️. I did manage however to get some of the green fabric you made your dress out of for £5 a metre. Don’t know if you’ve checked out Walthamstow Fabrics, such bargains x

[@onegirlcreates]

Ooo no, off to look at them now!
