05:35 Ruffled Maxi Dress by Sharon Sews isn't available anymore. This pattern by on the cutting floor is a similar concept but with jersey fabric but is still free: www.onthecuttingfloor.com/free-sewing-pattern-fiona-dress/

I had to subscribe when you said you disliked the layered skirt trend!😂😊

[@knotsandneedlescrafts]

A little bit of my soul dies everytime I see a new pattern release that's a layered gathered skirt.

[@rhonddalesley]

I’m with you on that one but also have what’s probably an unpopular opinion of a real dislike of poof sleeves 😮

[@knotsandneedlescrafts]

The patina blouse has poofy sleeves and i'm not sure i'm a fan either. it makes me feel really wide. I don't know yet how to redo sleeves without gathers.

[@CaitMakes]

Thanks for putting this together! So many great recommendations 👏🏼😊

[@knotsandneedlescrafts]

Next summer I plan on living in dresses. Glad you liked it

[@happytofu5]

Thank you for this great overview! I agree, dresses are just the best. Throw one on, done with the dressing.

[@knotsandneedlescrafts]

I hate making choices. I hate trying to decide what to wear and if it goes together. I have a feeling that my life is about to have a lot of mid Calf dresses in it and I cannot wait!

[@colettelee3391]

Just found your vlog brilliant, I am now a subscriber thank you

[@knotsandneedlescrafts]

Welcome aboard!

[@ptoste1]

Thank you so much 😊 ❤❤❤

[@stephaniepaterson6340]

Thank you for mentioning grasser does different heights…I am always on the look out for this since I discovered petite patterns don’t need 14000 adjustments to the bodice …so far I’ve only discovered Sinclair (wonderful but somewhat old fashioned though fit perfectly without alterations)…I’ve downloaded the free pattern you suggested. Love, love, love the dress you are wearing, what is it and where did you get the fabric?

[@knotsandneedlescrafts]

What a dream to sew something without having to make changes! The dress I’m wearing I think is from Sainsbury’s about 5+ years ago 😂

[@msbb14]

Thanks for the inspiration! I want to add shirring to my skill set too but I'm kind of intimidated by it.

[@knotsandneedlescrafts]

I've just done a test piece. It's definitely a skill.

[@jankerslake5813]

Yes me too! I need to find the right pattern for me and just jump in. Been saying that for months though! 🤣

[@knotsandneedlescrafts]

I watched this tutorial kzbin.info/www/bejne/fJy9qIqEqM2UnLs and I am attempting to make this simple dress, kinda a version 1 toile kzbin.info/www/bejne/nWWQiGueiqlqbc0

[@jankerslake5813]

@@knotsandneedlescrafts That’s really kind. Thanks 👍

[@dianamianabi]

thank you for your interesting video but i can’t achieve sharonsews dress pattern (forth dress) it’s just for readers how can i get that i really want that dress

[@knotsandneedlescrafts]

It looks like the blog isn’t there anymore. It was a super old one to be fair. I’ll have a look in the next few days for something similar and post the link for you.

[@knotsandneedlescrafts]

Hi, sorry its taken so long to reply but I have found a similar pattern to the one that isn't available anymore: payhip.com/b/HKiv www.onthecuttingfloor.com/free-sewing-pattern-fiona-dress/

[@Bmonkeygurl]

Can't stand tiered dresses and skirts either!

[@knotsandneedlescrafts]

Girl after my own heart. ❤️

[@deannamullins6584]

You sold me when you said this video doesn’t have tiers… it’s just not flattering on me. Tiers make me look like I’m cosplaying a 6 year old.

[@knotsandneedlescrafts]

I dont mind ruffles on the bodice as they give me more shape, but never tiers. I hate the lack of clean lines.
