Terra Tunic by Love Notions

[@janmiller1850]

Loved your hair and the wonderful bird life ... you look lovely in your tunics. 💚💚💚

[@thedahliasewciety]

Thanks so much! I feel like a new woman now 😂❤️

[@janmiller1850]

@@thedahliasewciety I totally get that feeling! 👩🏼‍🦰💚👩🏼‍🦰💚👩🏼‍🦰

[@lavadajenkins2955]

Great vlog, a really nice pattern. I love both tops and your hair is so pretty!

[@thedahliasewciety]

Oh thank you! So glad you enjoyed! Yes, I’m loving the newly chopped hair ❤️

[@dianemorrall2687]

Both tunics look lovely on you. I also like the tunic length...worn over jeans for the weekend or over a nice pair of pants for work. Both work well. I also like the buttons on the boat neck, but am very attracted to the asymmetric neckline! I like that it adds a bit of interest to the tunic.

[@thedahliasewciety]

I’d live to try that neckline next too! Xx

[@sandybyrd4328]

I love your new hairstyle so much!

[@agathemeherio2258]

I have made two sweatshirts from this Liberty French terry and it's fabulous quality!

[@thedahliasewciety]

It’s so lovely to wear! Very addictive ❤️

[@39houndsteps]

Totally jealous of your liberty fabric version. I couldn’t let myself buy it when it came up at Tessuti (no more fabric purchases for me for a while) but it’s great to see it made up. I love using the bonding tape for knit hems too. My hems always hang much better. I also tend to sew on the machine then finish on the overlocker. Again, seems to look better. To me anyway. Thanks for the review. 😊 and the garden/bird tour.🥰

[@thedahliasewciety]

Oh thanks so much for watching! So glad you enjoyed! The birds are so nice to watch ❤️

[@peggyr9623]

Great tops and perfect patterns for me too. I will definitely be getting this one. I noticed the leaves turning that were behind you. Those colors would look great on you. Like the new color as well. It looked on camera like there were a few streaks in your hair as well. By streaks, I mean some blonde added as well. Very pretty. Take Good Care.

[@thedahliasewciety]

Oh thanks so much! Yes my friend is a wonderful hairdresser and I usually just leave it up to her! She put a nice light copper base and strawberry blonde foils to highlight for me! Thanks for watching! ❤️

[@cherylp.3347]

Your hair looks great! Love the tunic as well!

[@thedahliasewciety]

Thank you so much!!

[@nicolewilson4055]

Lol. I thought I had all the Love Notions patterns I needed, but apparently not. That is super flattering on you. Thank you for giving your measurements and telling us what size you made as that is so helpful.

[@thedahliasewciety]

Nicole Wilson my pleasure! It makes it much easier if I can “ test run” patterns for all of you ❤️

[@tracyfrost]

Your hair looks great

[@quiltygal6981]

I woke up thinking I need some more warm tops and this popped into my feed. I have had this pattern ages and never made it, I'm off to search this out. Thanks for reminding me. Stay warm.

[@thedahliasewciety]

My pleasure! So glad you enjoyed ❤️

[@sosewmad]

Love the tops, amazing fabrics x

[@livingmy2ndchance]

Tunics are one of my favorite clothing items. Both of your tunics are fantastic. I especially love the teal blue. That fabric is amazing!! Your hair looks wonderful!! I know how you felt about finally getting your hair done. I needed a hair cut before the pandemic started and by the time I was finally able to get mine cut, it was down to my waist. My hairdresser cut off at least 6 inches and it still hits my shoulders. Felt so good to get it all cut off. :)

[@Hide_and_silk]

Love, love, love your liberty version! Xx

[@Hide_and_silk]

Your hair looks beautiful! I had to resort to home dyeing - hubby started to 'help' but was banished very quickly! My alternative to my hairdresser's trendy 'chopping' into my fringe was a quick trim with the pinking shears haha!

[@thedahliasewciety]

Haha love it! That’s so funny! I had a go at chopping hubby’s but not too sure how my sewing scissors went for that 🤣 I’m so lucky we’re able to have visitors again here and one of my best friends is a hairdresser! It’s been a long wait ❤️

[@ginahayes6169]

Really really like this tunic, & especially like how Love Notions pattens include so many options like neck, sleeve & lengths!! And... yes you have noisy birds!! I love to hear them while you’re filming! Please get the Kookaburra “laughter” on video!!! Lovely yard!!

[@thedahliasewciety]

Oh thanks so much! I’ll definitely try and get the kookaburra laugh next time ❤️

[@beckytheobsessedstitcher1170]

Great review of this top. Your versions are just lovely. I think your long sleeves are clever and a nice detail. Love the video and sounds of your bird life. So very different than my Northern California coast bird life. Thanks for sharing!

[@thedahliasewciety]

I’m so glad you enjoyed! Yes we have so much bird life here! So glad you are enjoying ❤️

[@dianneross2801]

Ooooo just found you. Love that you live in Australia also. We are a similar build so your advice is very helpful. Thank you 🙏 😊

[@thedahliasewciety]

Oh that’s fantastic! I’m so glad it gives you an idea for patterns that way! Xx

[@sarahodonnell6957]

Gorgeous tops love them. Your hair looks amazing I wish I could get mine done. 🙌🏻❤️

[@thedahliasewciety]

Sarah O'Donnell oh thanks so much! Loving the new chop!

[@alexandrawellington8028]

Your hair looks amazing, love the highlights. My daughter in law just did mine...makes you feel like a new woman!!!😍 the liberty came up perfectly...great tunics, awesome style xxx

[@EileenR11]

Love the tunic. I do like simple unfussy clothes, and a semi-fitted style so this is right up my street. I hadn't spotted this tunic but will follow your link now. Loved the wildlife too! I am so jealous that you got your hair done (looks fab by the way). The hairdresser is at the top of my wishlist in terms of things reopening.

[@Beyondthepinkdoor]

Lovely details in the tunic , the buttons are a great addition especially because the buttonholes aren’t needed . Your hair looks fantastic.

[@thedahliasewciety]

Oh thanks so much! I’m loving the new cut too 💕

[@MiddleEastMilli]

Hello my sewing inspiration! I was over the moon to see you found a special pattern marriage for your blue fabric! It looks very, very cozy! And your animal print looks so chic! You really did well with both! You are really ringing in the fall with your new makes and fresh and boundy hair! I am so happy for you! :) Well, I have some good news! Our stores are coming open again and I have already found two pieces of fabric that I really love! I hope to be like a squirrel searching for good nuts to bring back and hide in my stash next week! See you later!

[@thedahliasewciety]

Oh I bet you can’t wait! Thanks so much! I love to be inspiring you too 😘❤️

[@helenawagstaff959]

Love both versions, what a great top in the beautiful liberty fabric. Your garden is looking beautiful. Love hearing the birds. 😊

[@thedahliasewciety]

Thanks so much! So glad you enjoyed ❤️🌞

[@ameliarubio2608]

Thank you for the video. I’ve been wanting to make a top with the boat neck style.Have a wonderful day stay safe

[@thedahliasewciety]

You too! Thanks so much for watching ❤️

[@kathymcconville6428]

Kristen you look gorgeous! Love your hair. You've sold me on the tunic pattern with your beautiful versions. It's one I've been thinking of getting for a while. Thank you for showing the birds. I can usually hear them when you are in your garden but it's a treat to see them. Happy sewing!

[@thedahliasewciety]

Thanks so much! I’m really hoping to get some wildlife on here for you to see! Xx

[@k3of5ks]

The more I use Love Notions Patterns, the more I love them. Feature Friday discounts are amazing and all of the options she gives so much value for the money. That Liberty knit!!!! Lord help me. Lock your doors Kristen. I may have to come many thousands of miles to rob your closet. 😂😉😂😉😂😉

[@thedahliasewciety]

Oh I know! It’s so beautiful! I absolutely love it! I’m sewing up my next piece of Liberty sweatshirt next! It’s so beautiful but I only have 70cm so I’m using it wisely ❤️

[@sandraobrien8705]

Love your hair, swings so nicely with the choppy cut and the strawberry blonde streaks are pretty in your hair. Love this tunic, I'll have to get this. I need something a bit more classy than hoodies to see me through winter.

[@thedahliasewciety]

Thanks so much! I’m loving the new do! Feeling very fresh! I love the tunic style too! So handy ❤️

[@susankain3629]

Love this tunic. I thought the sleeve on the liberty one was one of the design options! Another couple of good makes :)

[@lindavictor8250]

Both versions of the Terra Tunic look so great. When fall comes around (next Oct.for me here in the USA), I will have to pick this up. Thanks for a wonderful video!!

[@thedahliasewciety]

My pleasure! So glad you enjoyed ❤️

[@lisazwaans491]

Your hair looks great😁 Love the outside videos👍🏻 thanks for your great info on tunic i may have to try something new to wear over winter here in NZ as getting alittle colder now. Enjoy your day.👗👕👖🌸

[@thedahliasewciety]

Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed and keep warm ❤️

[@jennetthamilton7942]

Thanks for the tip to use the bonding hemming tape on a hem of knit fabric, I will definitely try that. This is a pattern that I will have to purchase.

[@thedahliasewciety]

I really need to buy some hemming tape for knits because apparently it’s excellent too!

[@dianecrews6130]

Love your makes and your hair looks beautiful

[@thedahliasewciety]

Thanks so much! I’m loving the freshly chopped hair! ❤️

[@nancynewman6592]

[@thedahliasewciety]

Thanks so much! It’s such a handy, basic for the wardrobe! Xx

[@megs7019]

[@fayepanting9674]

Love tunics, will be adding the Love Notions to my collections, just wondering which Spotlight you purchase all your fabulous fabrics from. Love your channel

[@thedahliasewciety]

Faye Panting sometimes I order online as I live in a country area and I’m a 30-40 minute drive from my 3 closest spotlights! My favourite would have to be Cranbourne because of the beautiful staff and it’s a smaller store so not as overwhelming as the big stores!

[@kckazcoll1]

you sold me! I love tunics, so am now the proud owner of the Love Notions Terra tunic pattern! I'm considering having it printed on AO paper. have you ever done that, Kristen? Only 2 pages required apparently, so that works out around $5 per page. BTW I like your new hair colour :)

[@thedahliasewciety]

I’ve had them done in the past but unfortunately my closest Officeworks is a 40 minute drive and I’m too impatient to wait 😂

[@nevem5010]

💕

[@thedahliasewciety]

Thanks so much ❤️

[@eduardachi2571]

VERY PRETTY THAT BLUE AND GREEN ONE IS AMAZING u look fabulous are u getting smaller

[@thedahliasewciety]

Thanks so much! Not sure I’m getting smaller! Maybe just good camera angles? Haha

[@sewndebisdream6953]

What is your sewing Machine....is it a White Brand? It reminds me of mine that is a White Brand,very sturdy and sews fantastic!

[@thedahliasewciety]

Its just a standard Janome and I love it! Very reliable!

[@tracyfrost]

Have you made the Ace top you seamwork

[@thedahliasewciety]

I’m looking it up now! Thanks for the tip XX

[@karenlowes7802]

Some of us are still waiting for hair services!

[@thedahliasewciety]

Oh I know, it’s amazing the things we didn’t realise we would miss! I’m very lucky my best friend is a hairdresser! I’ve missed her so much! She’s a beautiful soul ❤️
