It changed the game when I started eyeballing things and when I realized how much of sewing is actually eyeballing!!

The amount of eyeballing in this video is incredible :D

I love that you're documenting your processes - even something you're just trying out!!! I love watching you grow your skills and techniques week by week with every video. Can't wait to see what you do next

When i did theatre costumes, we called all the dress forms (mannequin) a Judy

Hi I don’t sew just knit and crochet. I love watching your videos. I’m into making beanies, bandanas and bucket hats at the moment. Strange mix of summer and winter.

Something you may find really helpful for techniques for fiddly bits are a series of books that Singer and other big brands did. called ‘singer sewing book’ and the McCall’s sewing in colour. see them second hand all the time but they are fantastic for illustrations on how to do certain techniques. I really learnt a lot from them.

I really enjoy watching your videos. You are so cheerful and positive even when things don’t go to plan. Love it when you suddenly change things up on a whim from your original vision. I used to sew and alter things but lost my mojo. You have given me inspiration to get my machine out again and challenge myself. Just realised even at 70 we can be motivated by another sewist ideas. Thank you Carly. 👏❤

From carly b and eyeballing are synonymous for each other

I'm about to buy a plane ticket so I can fly over and steal this coat! Love the drape, love the colors, and how they harmonize with each other. Thanks for sharing the sewing process with us!

Carly! My mum recently gifted me a sewing machine and I have to say that while I have been starting out YOU are my biggest inspiration and encouragement, I originally saw the marshmallow dress vid on tiktok and since then you have made me so excited and your honesty when just feeling things out and seeing how it goes is so important for people like me just starting out! Thank you, doll!

For the green squiggle, maybe a French seam would also be a nice option instead of the bias tape. And you can topstitch that seam with a pretty colour to give a decorative effect 😊

Thanks for explaining French seams. I had never heard about them before but it sounds like a really useful technique 👌

Carly stitching in the ditch is so easy if you know how to pin it and sew it. You should give yourself a challenge for it. The easiest places to do it are on a straight waistband or a collar. And on your industrial you can use your be of your zipper feet to line the edge of the foot next to the edge of the ditch

You are absolutely amazing giving and special- i am learning LOTS - Thank You. O and i am tacking a pair of board shorts for my hubby, slow and steady and they are looking amazing ❤

This turned out so cute! And I LOVE that green corduroy fabric. Tbh if you hadn't mentioned it, I would never have known that you did any of the steps differently than intended. Love your work

❤ French seamed sleeves!!!

Now I want to make all your tutorials 😅😅 can't wait to get better at sewing, I started taking classes some months ago & I enjoy it so much ❤ LOVE your style!

You are so brave in your experimentations. Great project!

Wow! This coat is so stunningly unique! 🌟💚 I love it! Thank you for showing us your process - I’m so happy to now know how to do a French seam thanks to you! I’ve been working on some little cell phone pouches made of scrap material to help protect the screen and camera lenses. 😊 Can’t wait for your next video! 💓

You are very talented. I ❤ this coat and you have great style

Love the collar. Whole thing looks great 😊

I've been lowkey binge watching your videos and you must be one of my new fav fashion designers!! I really want to get better at sewing, I mainly do crochet now and hope to one day be able to sell patterns ☺️

I started sewing in July 2020 as I received a sewing machine for my birthday. And so far I have only bought and used just one pattern. I've made every thing else by self drafting patterns by my measurements or clothes I already own. I don't have a printer so I can't really buy a lot of patterns unless they're physical patterns. I'm currently finishing up a corset top. I need to make more bias tape to finish it, but I kind of hate making bias tape so I've been procrastinating.

I Love the jacket love the color

❤

Loved it ❤

Just found your channel. You look like a bollywood actress Pretty Zinta. The coat is gorgeous!

Love this! 😍

I love this!

Fantastic work 😊

Wow Carly! I really love all the french seams you make in this amazing coat! You are so talented! Congrats! 💖⚘️ here goes my question... how you make the button holes by hand? Can you make a tiny tutorial of this please? Thanks! Have a nice day💫

😍😍😍😍

I'm in Victoria. Have you ever checked out Rosary Apparel from Tassie or Perfect Jacket?

Curious about how you decided to flat fell rather than french seam! Do you thing a flat fell seam would look ok on the side seams of a linen dress?
