Favorite thing I made was a dress. It will be my first project made by myself. Thankful for your videos! I recently started watching and I have a fresh love of sewing.

I'm so happy to hear it could help ignite a fresh love of sewing in you! How fun you made your first dress by yourself - that is a lot to celebrate!

This was the year I started sewing my own clothing! I swore I would never sew from a pattern again after a bad experience about 10 years ago, but here I am, enjoying the slow and creative process

I made Christmas outfits in matching fabrics for my littles this year. I used two of your patterns and everyone was so pleased with the results. I got a new sewing machine and serger for my birthday and Christmas from my husband. I look forward to creating new outfits for them and myself. I would love to learn hand smocking because this was a craft my mom did for my sister and me. It would be cute to create a matching dress for my granddaughter’s doll.

Oh how sweet, Catherine! I love that you got both a serger and sewing machine this year - what a great gift!

Your video just popped up on my feed. I am 59 and wanted to learn how to sew this coming year although, I don’t really know where to start.

@RooneySewingPatterns 6 ай бұрын

I think right now is a great time to begin! For starting, practicing stitching straight lines and then choosing a super simple project like a tote bag is a great place to start. There are so many great resources online to help you along your sewing journey! I'm cheering you on :)

I was fortunate to have the time this year to make many things for friends and family. The last items that I made were the Morea Crossbody Bags from Rooney - one for my sister and one for my niece. I anticipated using denim, but my sister and niece wanted something a bit more vibrant so I went with a cotton floral for my sister and a bright sunflower "happy face" print for my niece. Both turned out beautifully and I have to say that the instructions that were provided were perfect. Thank you.

I love hearing that you had that time, Christine! I'm also so happy to hear the Morea Bags turned out great for you :)

I made several of your beautiful rectangle dresses in different lengths and added different pockets to each one. I had such lovely comments from people and enjoyed making them so very much. Your are the most lovely soul and have inspired me and instilled confidence that I didn’t think was possible. Thank you so very much for all your hard work, your time and inspiration. Warmest of Christmas wishes to you and your family. 🥰❄️⛄️🎄

I didnt make as much as I wanted to this year, but I've been growing a baby! I think my favorite make was a dress for myself for Easter, made of crinkle rayon. It was SO difficult to work with, but the result was so beautiful and twirly and fun.

@RooneySewingPatterns 6 ай бұрын

Growing a baby is a big feat! I also love that you pushed through the difficult fabric to an end result you love! How rewarding :)

I re-sew my old curtains. I made smaller curtains, pillows covers and coverlet cover 😅 I’m just started sewing few months ago. I think I will make a skirt before this year ends. Wish me luck! Love y’all!

hello! Merry Christmas! I made your stitched bible cover for myself and one for my Aunt. I stitched a pattern that I could stamp and iron on because drawing or sketching is not my talent. I love how they turned out! Thanks sew so much for all your inspiration!

@RooneySewingPatterns 6 ай бұрын

I love that :) I also think a stamp and iron pattern is the perfect way to embroider a design! Well done :)

Do you have any tips on walking your pattern/seamlines? I just heard this term today and I'm having a really hard time wrapping my head around how/why it's a thing.
