ABOUT:
Hi, I'm Wendy, and I have been on a sewing journey ever since my mom taught me how to make little outfits for my dolls. I studied engineering and business, had an office job for two years, and then quit to embark on a lifelong sewing adventure on KZbin. Subscribe to join me on the adventure, and maybe make your own clothing too! Thanks for watching ❤️

[@Digitalhunny]

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. 🇺🇸

[@OperationBringIsaiahHome]

Great video

[@giannmikhaelalipar]

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

[@NYKIRA]

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

[@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

[@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!

[@catherinetaylor9971]

So glad to see a thrift flip!

[@withwendy]

Me too it’s been too long!!

🆘🆘🆘Hola tesoro iba a suscribirme pero no entendería nada. Los subtítulos automáticos no están activados para traducir en mi caso en español. Agradecería ese pequeño esfuerzo. Muchísimas gracias por aportar y regalarnos tu experiencia y conocimientos y sobre todo cuídate muchísimo. Un saludo ​@@withwendy🙏🙏🙏😍🤩😍🤩😍👖👗👕🤗🤗🤗🍀🍀🍀🐝🐝🐝

[@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. 😢😢😢

[@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!

[@TeriHargraveartist]

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

[@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

[@mariannerady1137]

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

[@mariellenstathopoulos967]

I looove how unique the bias tape flowers are

[@lonnielove8452]

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

[@eadavidson856]

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

[@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!

[@lindseychampion3927]

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

[@tamara10]

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

[@kellyharrington6238]

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

[@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

[@theresagarza1578]

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

[@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

[@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

[@9gaglover321]

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

[@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!

[@debsbeeing1978]

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

[@BoJess11]

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

[@jenniferdios]

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

[@xXcrimsonxroseXx]

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

[@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.

[@Roserae16]

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

[@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.

[@samh.3421]

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

[@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!

[@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"

[@kanova4366]

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

[@FullStyleInc]

The Button Up. Definitely the button up!!

[@Itsyasun]

Omg the the last shirt was everything 😍😍😍

[@blymawolpin3405]

That shirt flip is fantastic

[@shelovesplants]

the white blouse is SO good

[@user-kv3rj4cv8i]

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

[@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!

[@BettyOs]

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

[@dagnolia6004]

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

[@debbieh7063]

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

[@miguelmonserate]

the simone rocha gathered shirt is so good

[@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 ☺️

[@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

[@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❤

[@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.

[@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.

[@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!

[@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 ☺️

[@hannahfountain4635]

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

[@myrnashoults9735]

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

[@dorrolorro]

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

[@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.

[@thkimana]

The white shirt is my favorite

[@adrividrio]

Very creative. I liked them all. Of course the dress and shirt look boutique worthy

[@dubitablymarie]

The dress flip is SO marvelous. Amazing work!

[@marisatapper8272]

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

[@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 !

[@Csaysit]

All of them are my favourite! But the photoshoot of the white shirt on Instagram was 🔥!

[@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!

[@nezbut7]

im OBSSESSSEDDD i love the flower dress and the ruffle shirt

[@princejerico4330]

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

[@strawberrymelon8527]

the last one looks so good!

[@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...

[@tracybrewer3377]

Love the white shirt. Great job. And the wide cuffs suit it well

[@heidymui8036]

the white shirt! wow!

[@gigglinggal1]

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

[@Aushirye]

THE SHIRT IS SO COOL

[@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.

[@MyWeirdNormal1]

I love the dress the most! But I’d love to try to make the cardigan wrap the most.

[@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

[@jojo-ed4li]

The 1st and last are my favourites. Stunning 😍

[@tsze-tszechin412]

Omg the dress and the shirt is sooooo cute! Can’t decide which i like better 🤣

[@amdelorey]

So great! White shirt for sure!

[@xRubyrx]

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

[@user-nk2tk2kp6b]

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

[@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

[@danielletdg8423]

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

[@merrybeth627]

The shirt is so coooooool 😂 💜💜💜

[@redporkpadthai6368]

OBSESSED with the black dress!!

[@Cavaughan57]

the flower dress is my favorite

[@pemberley3785]

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

[@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!

[@BritoLuize]

Looooooved the white shirt! 🤍

[@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.

[@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!

[@susangriffin-byrne8393]

All of them are amazing! I love the black dress best, imho.

[@fishtick]

the last one is SO GOOD omg I'm so tempted to try!!!

[@kristenwolters8879]

Not a French horn solo being played in the background 👀 We love a little Mozart with some fashion!

[@ladonnawashington1643]

The white shirt is the winner!

[@deepbluehoney8168]

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

[@angellab-c1690]

The white shirt flip is my favorite. I may try that. 😊

[@GetAwesome2042197]

The dress is my favourite, followed by the blouse

[@StancyNova]

you are so skilled and talented!! wow! definitely inspire me to start sewing!!!

[@rattylol]

Ballet wrap is gorgeous but the shirt, WOW!
