A month ago I sewed a blue top and many of you recommended I size down. In this video I have made another version doing exactly that, using my most prized fabric I own - a paisley linen. If fabric is love then this fabric is my soulmate! Come with me through the journey from idea through to finished garment. I hope you are entertained and learn something..
Just an fyi, if you see me shaking please down worry - I have essential tremor. I have had it since birth, I am fine. Thank you for caring!
Heres some things mentioned in this video:

Oh my goodness! It’s beautiful! One thing I do to get over imperfections when sewing is thinking about the Japanese term Wabi-sabi. It means appreciating the beauty of imperfection. Our imperfect way of sewing make our creations uniquely beautiful ❤

Claire! You look radiant in this blouse! ❤ I actually love the dark buttons, they show up as a design detail. The fit is lovely. I must say that I appreciate all your video close ups and angles, as well as the editing notes. I know it usually takes longer to edit than to film! I hear you about slow sewing, that’s definitely where I am. I know you asked your viewers to share their opinions, (I love it on you) but tbh, nothing is as important as your own opinion because you are the one who made it, imperfections and all. Well done, Claire 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🫶🏻

Looove this. Particularly enjoy (and benefit from) you trying on the toile on camera, it's obvious how beneficial the process is. I never used to make toiles but like you, only have the best fabric left after decluttering and using the rest, so it's definitely more worthwhile (and, indeed, necessary). As someone with ME as well, I appreciate what a big job this project was, along with the video making itself. I think it's one of your best videos and best sewing pieces. I love it!

Proud of you for using your prized fabric and pushing through the more difficult steps!! 🥳 You were also very resourceful in your problem solving methods (using the safety pin to turn the button loops, hand tacking the button loops to the fabric before machine sewing, taking in the shoulder seam to suit your style preferences, and more). 👏 The top turned out so well, and it looks amazing on your gorgeous self!! 😍 Thank you for showing your process and including your struggles!! ❤ I found your channel just the other day, and I’m very glad I did; you have been teaching me a lot and motivating me to spend more time sewing + creating!! 🤗 P.S. I think Fred was trying to help out by laying on your fabric…He figured he could press it with his body if he laid on it long enough! 😛😂❤🐱

One of the things about losing weight is that taking in is easy, so that excuse not a strong one for me. I fall victim to falling in love to a fabric's potential. Then nothing is good enough to make it from. Think that is common especially if you buy the fabric on impulse rather than with a plan. That top is great, you really did a good job.

All the hard work payed off at the end! Your shirt looks lovely!👍 I didn't see how you gather your fabric, but I do it by zig zagging over a piece of dental floss or embroidery floss. The gathers become pretty even. and the thread does not snap during the gathering. Maybe you know this trick or maybe it might help you the next time

That top is beautiful and the buttons are perfect! Love Fred! I have 14 cats and they are NOT allowed in the sewing room! LOL. One of them, Christmas Eve (she was in our house when we came home from church and we dont know how that happened; she was very pregnant and we couldnt put her outside) still tries to get in there because when she had her kittens it was the best room to confine her in, away from the other cats. That was over 4 years ago and she still tries to get in there, she thinks it's "her" room or she wonders if she left any kittens behind, I dont know.

So happy to have found you, for too many reasons to list! That fabric is beautiful, the colors are perfect for you, so I have no reason at all to doubt it would be your fav of all time. Now I’m going to have to watch every video you’ve ever put up….get you in my head…so I can get going. A few things so far, after watching only 2 videos have really resonated with me. First is I’ve begun fabric collecting (breaking the bank) because I love them…but then refuse to actually make anything because they might not fit right. Fitting is a nightmare!! There are so many different things that could be responsible for the same issue. I’ve totally run out of cheap fabric and old sheets. 😅. Guess I’m just going to listen to your videos some more and quit being a chicken. Thanks!

A little trick I use for turning narrow tubes… cut a length of string slightly longer than your intended tube, stitch to one side ie the top. Fold your fabric over the string making sure it’s in the fold, be sure not to catch in the seam, once the seam is sewn give the string a little tug at the bottom and turn your tube. Works like a charm. Great video, stunning blouse ❤

It looks wonderful on you, Claire. You just glow when you model it. I have found if I need to gather a lot of fabric is works well if I zig-zag over a piece of light cord or yarn and then pull the gathers. You might give it a try and see if that works for you. Thanks for advocating slower sewing, too.

The top turned out awesome and looks fantastic on you. You did a great job. I know what you mean about having to take few days off when sewing has just about plucked your last nerve. I just need to put sleeves on my dress and hem it. It’s my first dress I’ve made since I got back into sewing. I messed neck up just a bit but I figure a scarf or something to camouflage it. It’s so much better to wear that favorite fabric then to just look at it up in a shelf. Enjoy your new top!

I so love the part about perfection. I get paralyzed by expecting perfection from myself. Therefore I don’t get started at all.

Such a lovely top! I was so impressed by the shoulder and sleeve adjustments you made. They were perfect! I love the idea of slow sewing too, because there's no sense in rushing a project and feeling agitated. Sewing should be relaxing and a bit exciting 😊 Enjoy your beautiful work!

Well done. The fabric is gorgeous and suits you so well. It’s a great colour and pattern for your hair colouring. Also the style is so perfect for you - and I actually love the teal coloured plain fabric you are wearing to present some of the video. You’ll be able to use that pattern again and again now you’ve perfected the fit. Why do pattern manufacturers think that curvy women must have really wide shoulders? The garment ends up falling off the shoulders and the side hems droop. It’s very annoying for me, and I’m so glad to see how you adjusted for that. Thank you. ❤
