Lovely!! The next time, press your fabric before you cut it, to give it more of a smoother lay. I was a bridal couture designer for 40 years and i love to help and teach young artist in fashion design. All ways happy to help!

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS! As difficult as it was sewing with fine silk on the bias, your tutorial and pattern was so clear and easy to follow along with! So excited to take photos of the final dress I made! Definitely will be using more of your patterns in the future :)

When sewing tricky fabrics like silks and satins, you can starch them (practically dumping into starchy water and drying) to stiffen them and make them easier to handle. When you are done, you wash your work and voila!

I altered the pattern a little bit to give homage to the Harlem Renaissance and fashion at the time, but this tutorial was so clear. I think that this is one of the most clean and professional dresses I have ever made. The only difficult thing for me is the cups. I always struggle with cup and they’re by far the most difficult thing for me to sew, but this was great!

the pattern says to sew with a 1/2 inch seam allowance, does that mean i cut down the line for a size small that i still need to add the seam allowance or that it’s calculated in the pattern?

This is beautiful. I was getting a little confused tho bc the way I learned in classes a staystitch is a small stitch length like 1 and doesn’t get removed, and a long size 5 stitch length is a basting stitch and is more of a temporary or placeholder stitch

@TransformationsByTracy 2 жыл бұрын

Thank you, and teachers have different methods of stay stitching, I do a size 5 stay stitching as a temporary hold because I only need that stitch for the fabric not to grow before I sew all the seams together, after I sew those seams the staystitch serves no purpose.

I saw your other video like I mentioned in your earlier video it helps to pick the shiniest fabric possible preferably a polyester fabric because it's more durable than silk and silk is extremely high maintenance I guess you could use silk but preferably you should use more polyester in other words one silk dress for every five polyester dresses preferably you won't go wrong with polyester I promise I've been working with fabrics for 35 years I'm 50 years old I started when I was 12 so you can imagine the experience I have thank you for considering my input
