I'm glad to have come across your channel. I'm a pretty new sewist, just beginning my adventure into making garments. I'm using Closet Core's course to learn to sew clothes, and one of the three patterns they include in that is the Cielo. It was quite good to hear what an experienced sewist thinks of it and that you like it so much. I haven't made it yet, because I've chosen to start with their Fiore skirt, which I'm currently in the process of tracing before I take the deep breath of cutting fabric and actually sewing it up. The Cielo will be what I make next, however long it takes me to finish the skirt and move on to it.

Hello Wendy, enjoyed you channel today glad I found you, as I am not on Instagram . I think the second dress fabric you put up would be lovely in the dress. Blue flowers I believe, thanks for a interesting watch 😂

Hi Wendy, how lovely to find you at the start of your channel! I would love it if you could do a sew along for the toddler shirt as I’m new to making such tiny things and could use something to give me a bit of courage. I’ve found that come of the toddler patterns sizing is a bit hit and miss, I made some PJs for my 2 year old grandson and they were massive on him, he’s not small for his age at all. It would be so nice to have some tips from someone with so much experience. Can’t wait until your next episode x

I have made the Cielo dress 4 times(2 for me, 1 for each of my daughters), it is definitely one of my favorite patterns. the red is lovely!

Yes ! Make the dress😅 love that fabric. Debbie here, as FPC have sale on I am going to buy the Patina. I do have a very similar pattern but has a grown on sleeve which I have made many times. Will You be showing us how to do these adjustments? Always wanting to learn more. Really enjoyed this vlog and look forward to more. Off to follow you on IG x x take care

Hi Wendy - just found you and really enjoyed your video so I have subscribed. I work in Truro and didn't realise Truro Fabrics did a Sewing Society. I have been learning to sew for about a year - have all the gear but no idea - actually that is untrue as I have made several garments which I do wear but recently have lost my confidence so I have signed up for the next fortnightly session (this weeks was full I guess as I couldn't click on it) I love your Cielo top and dress - I think I will order this. I have made the Patina twice and have a 3rd one cut out which has been on my table for 3 weeks ..... look forward to your video re fitting as this would be so useful - thank you

Hello Wendy, I love all your makes and fabric choices, but.. I can't stop looking at the "wall" behind you. A perfection to aim for 😍. One small request, if possible; I don't know if it is just my laptop, but your volume is very low with my setting at 100%. Is there something you can do while recording to up the volume? that would be great. Can't wait to see your makes, and maybe some sew-alongs and tutorials. Great start!

Thank you for your kind comments, yes the unit keeps everything tidy for me. I’ll have a look at the sound, I’ve listened it on some different appliances, but am moving over to using a microphone as well, so any issues should be sorted.😍

Thank you Wendy I'm so pleased to have found your channel. I have made a couple of the Cielo tops but the neck gaps at the front and I was wondering if you could tell me what adjustment would solve this problem. Thanks again look forward to the next one. Happy sewing.

Thank you for your lovely comments and watching my video. I’d say to try cutting the neckline and shoulder depth for a size or two smaller. I find that can work and is worth a try.😍

Hi Wendy, I'm so pleased I've found you. I am quite new to garment making, I am mostly fine with either written instructions or better with a video tutorial. The problem I have is fitting issues. I'm 5'2" with 38" upper bust and 42" full bust and always have the same problem with the gaping at the back neckline. Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated. I have subscribed and am looking forward to your next video 😊

Hi Wendy - I live in Barnstaple and I have been looking for good fabric shops around the South West. I would love some suggestions if you wouldn't mind.
@WendyPooleTheDressmaker 11 күн бұрын
Have you been to Exeter Fabric Centre? that’s an hour or so from Barnstable by car. That’s also very good for dressmaking fabrics. Truro Fabrics is also excellent but that’s down in Cornwall. 😊
