Hey there gorgeous lady, with the bottoms that you cut off of that cxartigan you could add length or frills to those sleeves. You know, if you wanted them longer for winter? Keep in mind that long flowy frills & toddlers are not very practical together... if, I remember correctly? 😂😂 That blouse with those wide leg black pants is KILLER! Slay Queen!! 🤗💕💕

[@StevenP830]

Phing phag phong. Considering you’re a from a KP culture, sure hagie ma’ sure. 🇺🇸

Great video

"I have a strategy in mind but that doesn't mean I'm not scared." Wendy, 2023 FELT 😭

[@doedelbroesel3239]

From a sleepless professional men’s tailor from Berlin i need to inform you: The cuffs don’t need 4 cufflinks, although they come with 4 holes each sleeve, but normally you fold the cuff in half so that all the holes align and then u get the button through. Like your videos, you are a calming, positive energie

Saving us from economic crisis one video at a time 😂❤

[@brendasnow8255]

What economic crisis? There’s no recession, either.

[@laurenmiller149]

ok the shirt flip is *incredible* !!! and I love the story behind the dress design. such a cool use of color, too.

[@CreativiteeByT]

Soooooo dope! Definitely the shirt!!! Then the dress!!! Love them all!

[@TeriHargraveartist]

I mean, honestly...massive round of applause for these flips!

[@catherinetaylor9971]

So glad to see a thrift flip!

[@withwendy]

Me too it’s been too long!!

[@o.m.2203]

Wendy, you’re amazing! I loved all of them but I especially love the execution of the dress. It definitely looks fresh off the runway. The button up shirt is so cool too. Please continue making thrift flips!

[@mariellenstathopoulos967]

I looove how unique the bias tape flowers are

[@mystic_ryder5196]

The third is definitely my favorite, but the second also steals my heart. It would be interesting to see a skirt version of the dress and play around with what patterns are used in place of (or in addition to) the petals

[@lonnielove8452]

The knit top is the most practical but the flower dress is my fave!!

[@mariannerady1137]

We don't care about continuity. Please wear the things you feel good in

[@eadavidson856]

I don't know what my favourite is. It's between that amazing dress and the beyond cool shirt. You are magic Wendy !!!

[@laceynagel5025]

9:09 I would actually love for you to wear your clothes as you usually would, because one of the things that makes me feel like a bit of a failure sewing is how long everything seems to take me, so when I can see creators with 10 different outfits hair / lighting in one video, it really helps me understand what is a realistic timeline for my own projects!

[@shaydawn7376]

KZbin stopped recommending you idk what happened 😭😭😭😭 I was an original to this channel and for about a year I haven't seen you recommended and I forgot! Seeing you again is like seeing an old friend. I think KZbin's algorythm is sexist -- and I don't just say that because of you, many of the female creators I love are never recommended I have to remember who they are and search for them. 😢😢😢

[@SyarSAlia]

the last flip seemed challenging and ended up so crisp, but i think my fave is the bias tape flowers, what a cute look in all the styling options!

[@9gaglover321]

You yelled “blue” in lower caps. I love your energy

[@tamara10]

Great flips! Love how you showed us the different way you'd style them

[@JoGirl]

Love the shirt! Also love the validation that no matter how long you've been sewing, you still "completely miss the mark" sometimes. Oh so relatable.

[@lindseychampion3927]

I will admit I do watch Wendy's videos like a tv series. I love her voice and sewing videos😊

[@bettyeames6812]

The wrap top spoke to me quite sweetly.

[@derrickellerbeck3363]

I'm in love with the White Button Down. Before you even started, just the cuffs alone was heaven to me. I want to give is a go as soon as I have sewing confidence.

[@drsu5638]

Everything turned out so well, I love how unique each piece is! I want to cut flowers into all of my dresses now. This is one of your best videos!

[@kellyharrington6238]

Ok now this is the definition of GIRL MATH! these are amazing

[@shunkahato]

Love the white shirt flip! I have a love/hate relationship with white dress shirts, but you knocked this transformation out of the park, and I’m tempted to try this one myself

[@justinemchan]

My favourite is the wrap cardigan but mostly because the other ones are way past my skill level. Loved seeing you style the white shirt!! I liked your looks more than the runway

[@pemberley3785]

Such a @withwendy move - serving us 3 different thrift flips each worth a separate video all together 🙏🙏🙏

[@deepbluehoney8168]

All three are great! I’d rank them as follows: #1 = dress; #2 = shirt; & #3 = ballet wrap sweater.

[@ppiieennnneeiipp2600]

OVERLOCKING TIP: with maybe not as detailed pinning as you did with the wrap top, but you can always pin fabric diagonally with the serger seam but then you pin 3 cm away from your seam instead of where your seam will be. This way your fabric wont slide while working and nothing gets trapped in the knife!

[@debsbeeing1978]

My favorite is the ballet wrap. Gunna go thrifting for the perfect sweater to flip. Thanks Wendy for another great video!

[@ItsSamPalmer]

Love your informative intro!! I am a long-time watcher of the channel but I know for the newbies it helped. Love what you do Wendy!

[@BettyOs]

I can’t pick a favourite, they are all so good and the styling of each was impeccable.

[@debbieh7063]

I actually really like the shirt. I mean, I'm not always one for designer/runway looks, but that's actually super cute.

[@princejerico4330]

The last makeup look suits you best, you should do it more often, makes you look so much younger ❤

[@BoJess11]

The white shirt flip surprised me when you styled it at the end! Loved it 😮😍

[@daand.1042]

Wowie that buttonup got me really nervous BC all through the process I couldn't really tell how it went and it seemed so bulky to me that it'd be unwearable, but you DELIVERED!!! holy moly it's so good when styled properly, and I love how doable it was!! Really inspiring for us less experienced sewists :D

[@Bexinmo]

I love the wrap sweater the most, but that is only because it is the one I could see incorporating into my wardrobe the best.

[@IssaSia]

wow!!! 1.41M subscribers plus myself starting today! I am so glad Im not alone in not wanting to follow a traditional dress pattern that can be bought with overwhelming instructions that I barely understand! I want something I practically like and would like to clone it for myself in the most practical way of making it! You made me realize it's posible! Thank you so much!

[@xXcrimsonxroseXx]

These are all so so good but I am in love with that flower dress!!

[@bqpdobqpd]

I love your taste and choices; the original pieces are always not the kind that’ll catch my attention ever but somehow the way you recreate them inspires me. Thank you for sharing❤

[@cybermücke]

I am stunned by the blouse/ the white shirt. Gives me high fashion vibes, I would wear it!!

[@hannahfountain4635]

I love the wrap shirt because there are SOOO many cheap, long cardigans out there that no one wants!

[@camyluvs]

The last 2 pieces the dress and white shirt is something I will definitely try making. It is soo high fashion at a fraction of the price, totally want them.

[@hasanianum]

I love your taste and choices; the original pieces are always not the kind that’ll catch my attention ever but somehow the way you recreate them inspires me. Thank you for sharing

[@theresagarza1578]

My faves are the sweater & the white shirt. But I'm impressed with how you figured out the flower cut-out-tie-thingies.

[@jinoia]

I love how soft you speak, and I am daring myself to start thrift flipping!!! it's always been a dream! thank you for inspiring me even more! "i have a strategy in mind but that doesn't mean i'm scared"

[@lizzylucky34]

That blouse was genius. Such an elevated basic

[@zoeLl915]

Love the shirt! I wasn’t feeling it on the runway but seeing your styling is *chefs kiss*. Thanks, Wendy! Wishing you and your fam health and happiness ☺️

[@danielletdg8423]

The sweater is more something I would wear, but I do love the dress. All of them are pretty fantastic ❤

[@shallyshedrak4905]

Wendy you're amazing, i love your works and content ❤🎉. don't know who needs to hear this "Save to Invest! You are saving a day off work"

[@shallyshedrak4905]

​@elenacherry6732yes it been helpful to my general income, make an extra $2k weekly from my investment profits

[@peteranderson5714]

​@@shallyshedrak4905wow! that's awesome I'm really excited about this, how do I get started?

[@shallyshedrak4905]

There's a lot of Investment opportunities, My best advice is contact an expert broker/financial advisor guide you to make good investments.

[@peteranderson5714]

I really want to but I don't know how and where to start.

[@shallyshedrak4905]

​@@peteranderson5714actually you will need a coach or a good professional to guide you on t

[@kathrynledger]

Love the dress, but I'd never wear it. So I'm going to say my favourite is the shirt, for sheer wearability. I'd consider a top with a flower detail in the middle, however. Loving your work as always. Thanks Wendy!

[@leafgreen92]

the french cuffs really takes it to the next level!

[@tinekejoldersma]

I sooooo would wear that dress, the shirt too, but I dislike ironing. A lot. I think the last time I ironed was 20 years ago. Then the cardi, if it was a bit brighter coloured I would, for sure, wear that a lot. I love how you conducted the ideas. And.... you show mistakes. Love it, Wendy.

[@xRubyrx]

LOVE THE FLOWRS. And the white top is such a unique way to style a white top

[@emilyrosethegreat]

Omg I love them all 😍 I'm definitely gonna be keeping an eye out for an appropriate dress shirt and something to add flower cut-outs to! Gorgeous and so fun!

[@kirsticatification]

I’ve been wanting a ribbed wrap top just like this one for like a year - never thought of doing a thrift flip but this is perfect !

[@maunarose]

I love the Simone Rocha flip! All your flips are wonderful. The shirt is my fave for me. For you, I love the dress ❤ The sweater is a great piece for any wardrobe.

[@kellybryson7754]

The sweater is my fav and seems to be the most practical.

[@rosew2k]

This is really amazing ✨, imagine having the skill to just make the clothes you want. Such a simple thought but it takes so much talent. I want to learn.

[@withwendy]

We might be working on something to make learning easier!! 👀

[@rosew2k]

@@withwendy I can’t wait ☺️

[@MyTaylordCloset]

I love this Wendy!!❤ I actually really like all 3 they each gave different vibes. I love all the tips and tricks as always keep us informed and becoming more knowledgeable sewers.

[@marisatapper8272]

The white shirt of course! Hard WORK BUT SO WORTH IT!

[@FullStyleInc]

The Button Up. Definitely the button up!!

[@RebeccaVinyard-h1c]

Wow… I think you have outdone yourself. I love the sweater but the show stopper for me is the white shirt modification. I love that one!!! ❤

[@Roserae16]

I definitely need to try that ballet wrap sweater, very cute ❤

[@shelovesplants]

the white blouse is SO good

[@EButterball]

THE SHIRT 🤯🙌🏽❤️

[@jenniferdios]

that last one was amazing, i love the dress shirt transformation

[@Fromaplaceoflove1971]

The brown wrap and the white shirt are the best. LOVE THEM!!!

[@kanova4366]

The white shirt! Looks amazing, especially in styling option number 2.

[@tgrrl5]

these are all phenomenal flips!! i think my favorite is the shirt. they're all really good tho, and i love how you walk us thru the process and are very transparent when you encounter hiccups! troubleshooting is apart of the process too!

[@viannguy]

would love to see a thrift flip of garments made from old/discount sheets!

[@samh.3421]

I love the third one with the jeans, very cute.

[@dorrolorro]

Oooh that ballet core cardigan was so cute! I want it!

[@jillbork2683]

Flower Dress is perfection !

[@ladonnawashington1643]

The white shirt is the winner!

[@nancyfoster620]

Absolutely love your content, especially thrift flips. It gives me inspiration and how-to info to try it myself. My fav is the dress, you outdid yourself!

[@Jollibuwaya]

absolutely love the 3rd thrift flip the most omg

[@julietmurphy8637]

All are cute. The shirt is awesome, but the cardigan is hands down my favorite.

[@iont8172]

Hi! I think the Black dress needs some nude fabric inside. The way it is right now with the black inside and out it's not obvious that there are holes to the dress. It seems the ribbon is just attached to the fabric from outside. I hope you understand what I mean.

[@andreannepinard9838]

Two videos in one week!!!! Yeah!!!

[@cinemaocd1752]

The Simone Rocha top is my fave. I love how it can be switched up and worn differently. She's tripping to charge that much for a shirt tho...

[@DipityS]

Oh! They're all so smart. I love them each for their differences. the white shirt in the middle look with the pant and over the skirt looks like out of a Vogue shoot - which I suppose is the idea. I loved each look with the flower dress and the wrap around cardigan was lovely too.

[@moistsbread]

all of them look gorgeous but i loved the dress way more than i expected!!

[@myrnashoults9735]

I would get the most use from the cardigan, but the dress and shirt are SO COOL!

[@melissabomgren4816]

I loved the shirt!!!! So something you can get to make these processes easier get a walking foot OMG it’s the bomb! It will keep the fabrics moving at the same time and avoids puckering. The other thing I would recommend and I don’t know the name of it it this magnet guide it just guides your fabric and sits on top of the sewing plate…hope this helps in your endeavors

[@Sweet.Seraphim]

Omg love. The Simone dupe is probably my fav, but I also loved the simplicity of the Ballet wrap top. As a sewing newbie, the first feels like a very doable project-- with room to recover if I make a mistake. Great work as always Wendy~~~~~

[@dagnolia6004]

my favourite is all the kitty cat shots..... great flips also!

[@blymawolpin3405]

That shirt flip is fantastic

[@femmefataleartemis]

omg that last button up was incredible!

[@robynsnest22]

I enjoy your sewing videos but sure hope you continue to do other craft things. You were the inspiration that got me into weaving wall hangings, and I enjoyed the hammered flower tutorial too. Please keep making other diys. 💖

[@esoterictidbits7782]

LAST ONE!! last one, last one, last one. it made me think that i can actually try and make it - i am extremely bad at sewing *emphasis on the extremely bad*- but you made it look easy and showed the steps so i do wanna try it out, plus this is my first time watching you, you're so pretty and they all look so good on you

[@leadupont8588]

Definitely that wrap around cardi! So versatile and feminine ❤

[@nerveendings]

I've been wanting to make that shirt for ages! Thank you for confirming my hypothetical way of doing it haha. Looks great on you

[@leilanaderi1935]

All three flips are top tier!!!! I love each design. The way you styled the buckle shirt 💯🧡 Beautiful

[@cltinturkey]

Jim dress is my favorite by a mile. You did a great job and will get much use from that wondrous dress! Such fun!

[@Jenntully]

My personal favorite is the cardigan, but that's the one I'd actually get use out of. I love the dress, though. So pretty and so well executed!

[@gigglinggal1]

Alllll of them. Shocked how much I loved the shirt.

[@sharonmills6044]

The shirt flip…my absolute favourite ❤

[@redporkpadthai6368]

OBSESSED with the black dress!!
