Hi Carly! Im currently in fashion school and I feel like the work we have to do takes away so much of my creativity at the moment. Watching your videos inspires me to just KEEP GOING and being bold! Thank you for that 🌸🌺🌼

Aw mate, that's rough! Keep going, you're gonna come out of school with so much knowledge & you can just GO FOR IT then!!! Soak up all that learning, I'm a wee bit jealous! Hope 2024 is a good one for you

Thanks for sharing your year. such fun. I have to wonder how old you are. Creativity of an older more experienced person with the heart of a 6 year old. I am an old sewest, learned from my grandmothers. I'm 86 years old, and so enjoy you and all of your clever sewing ideas. I live in Southern Indiana USA.

Tip for printing on fabric. Iron some cotton onto freezer paper and cut to A4 size. It goes through your printer really easy. Loads of beautiful makes from 2023

Hi Carl, Love the bows on the headphones. your channel was one of the best thing happened to me in sewing area. The biggest thing I learnt this year as a beginner is 'Always make a Mock-up'. And if the pattern says it is for intermediate sewist the do not attempt to make it in the good fabric directly ever. I learnt this after spoiling two lovely dresses. I don't even have extra fabric to fix them. So always make a mock up of at least the bodice.

@fromcarlyb 6 ай бұрын

hehe thank you! aw that's so cool. mock ups sometimes are a life saver I agree!! Hope your 2024 is filled with lots of great sewing!!

Such an amazing and inspiring wrap! (Also, feeling so smug to have seen all the videos you mention...) My favourites are the fairy wedding dresses and the happiest skirt, though I loved every single one of your makes. My own sewing achievements were selling my first pieces and my latest video getting a lot of love! Can't wait to see what you get up to next year.

Subscribed immediately. I gasped opening the link to your shop because I have always been OBSESSED with patchwork clothes (and upcycled vintage materials, stylistically as well as environmentally). I'll be keeping an eye out for any more of those patchwork dresses (like the Easel with the ruffled collar) because I intend to buy one ASAP lol.

I love all the variations of your Jo March dress. Of the things I have made I am most proud of a coat with sleeves, cuffs, collar, pockets, buttons and buttonholes. I did it withoit a pattern - just trying things.

Hi Carly!! Your creativity is so inspiring and I just love seeing all the care and time you put into creating your garments! All your pieces are so much fun and I love that you aren't afraid to make the things you really want to make! I really love the camera bag you made. Although I'm beginner sewist, I decided to make my own wedding dress this year and I LOVED it. I learnt so much. Although people thought I was kind of crazy for doing it, others were inspired which just gave me the warmest feeling. We can do hard things! Thanks for sharing your creative journey with us. 🧵❤

Aw thank you for appreciating my work. Means so much. WEDDING DRESS!!!! YOU'RE AMAZING!!! I'm so glad you loved it. You must be so proud of that creation. We can do hard things... it's good to remind ourselves that I think. Take care mate, hope your 2024 is filled with lots of goodness.

I'm pretty freaking new to sewing myself and even though a lot of the things I make are really similar projects, I learn a lot from each of them. It's fun to see how much you've learned and grown in a year! I upcycle a lot too. I've been wanting to use my scraps for something and you have a lot of interesting ideas.

That's the BEST!!!! The reward of learning something new everytime feels so exciting and sparkly. I hope you have a wonderful year of sewing ahead!

The pieces you have made have been INCREDIBLE and it's so interesting to hear how much you've learnt and grown. I also love that you say things like... I didn't get this bit right but we're learning. It's not always about everything being perfect. It's also about the journey and about what things can teach us. Ahh I just love your content.

Aw thank you for watching mate!! Oh those rock climbing pants were a task for sure.. but so special to make. I can absolutely do a pattern breakdown on my patreon this year! But if you want to self draft... I worked off the Bob Woven pants pattern as a jumping point
