No Whammies! Most people have no experience saying my mother's name, Noemi. To this day, she still tells people it is like saying No Whammies. Most people don't remember the game show, but it still worked. Sometimes my mother would tell people to think of Susan Lucci, no emmies...but then she had to go and get one. 🤣

Heh. Say hi to your mother from a Czech who knows several Noemis and would have no trouble pronouncing it 😀 - although my way would be more Czech than English so maybe still wrong. 😉 (It's how it's normally spelled over here but it's a rare name here as well - mostly popular among Protestants who form a small section of the population. But you reminded me now how I got very cross with someone online years ago insisting we were spelling it "wrong"... not realising, I'm guessing, that Czech spelling reflects pronunciation very closely so from our point of view spelling it differently would completely change the word!)

The most beautiful robe/duster ever! You gave us some great sewing tips too. Really appreciate. I have one too. I was taught to sew a 1/4" seam first, and then turn and do a 3/8" seam... and voila, no trimming, All in all you have your 5/8" seam. To each his own, but just thought I'd pass that along for those who'd like to have it. So wonderful to see you and get one of your helpful sewalong tutorials. Love the twill tape finish. Hi to Rob. Ed. I'd love to see how you trim the hem after it hangs out. I remember so many years standing on a chair so my mom could trim or pin a level line after hanging, and before hemming.
@thehandmadeharriells 2 жыл бұрын
Yes that works great! I wanted a smaller finished seam allowance for this sheer fabric so I went the trimming route. I should do a time lapse of leveling a hem. That’s one of my very favorite things to do in the morning when I don’t want to make sewing machine noise. I can sit on the floor and level a hem for a solid hour. It’s like meditation 🤗 hopefully your mom didn’t make you stand that long!

I also realised that I have some very lightweight wool I wasn't entirely sure what to do with and... we're facing the prospect of being pretty cold next winter so it occurred to me that a lightweight robe for lounging around the house in, done in _wool,_ might be just the trick... we'll see what happens because right now my creative life is entirely occupied by the treasure trove of hoards of yarn that I got at work!

It kind of... trains the fabric into folding along the seamline which comes in handy for then pressing it crisp from the other side.

@beth12svist 2 жыл бұрын
Twill tape has the advantage of being more willing to go around curves; I think a satin ribbon might be too stiff for that purpose. But I think you might tape the edges with satin bias tape for that wow factor, in much the same way?
@thehandmadeharriells 2 жыл бұрын
That’s fine too, there’s more than one way to French seam! This way gives you a smaller seam finish(and you can go even teenier to finish at a 1/8th inch SA). I’ve used prettier trim for this finish, but yes as Beth said 💗, satin ribbon won’t have enough give. But there’s certainly options out there that would work!

You’re most welcome, and there are no dumb questions! As Joan said bias does make curves easier. This neckline just has a slight curve around the center back neck so the twill tape has enough give to work. Most sleeve hems are straight, but you wouldn’t want to use this twill finish on a curved skirt hem 👍🏽 I prefer using the twill finish vs bias on the neckline because it’s less work, and a little less bulk!

Hi Marcy! First time sewer here (meaning this is the first time I've ever used a sewing pattern or machine haha) When you say mark the notches and pleats, what does that mean? Do I mark it on the fabric using pins or a marker of some sort? Also, do you have an email I could contact if I have more questions :) which I probably will haha

Also, do I cut out two of each pattern? For the front and the back?

Amrita, I’m so sorry I missed these questions! Hopefully you jumped in, but you do cut 2 front, and 2 back. If you look at the mini-visualizing section, that might help you get an idea of how that works! For notches, those are the teeny triangles on the seam lines of the pattern. You take a teeny snip into those, so you can match up your pattern pieces. For things like pleats and darts, you mark those in chalk, or you can use a heat erasable pen (but, you’ll lose those marks once you press them!).

This might be a dumb question or I might have missed it but why did you end the dart seam with a hand tied knot and a tuck in? Why not a backstitch?
@thehandmadeharriells 2 жыл бұрын
not dumb at all, there are no dumb sewing questions! if you backstitch at the end of a dart, you can create a bubble at the tip that will show on the right side of the fabric. This is one way to avoid that, but there are others as well! Maybe I’ll do an “all about darts” video 👍🏽

@@thehandmadeharriells that would be great! I have taught myself to sew since so long ago. I quit for many years and started again a few years ago. I play it safe and sew with cotton lawn. I have had a few disasters with rayon ☺️

I love your sewing tutorials. Your choices are so amazing- they make me want to be a woman. But then I realize I can’t afford a drastic pay cut…. I don’t make enough as it is!!! But I still love watching you construct these garments. I also love your term ‘sewist’. As a weaver, who has sewn since high school, I’m always aware of the gendering of terms. When people stop themselves as they start to say seamstress…. er, um, SeamSTER? I’m not necessarily a gender warrior, but having chosen more ‘feminine’ ventures in my life, the unnecessary gendering is constantly being shown to me. Any way….. Love you 😍

You've made me smile from laughter *and* deep thought! I always liked sewist-- it seems more fit as an artist and yeah, more inclusive. And not only that, I think the common civilian perception of seamstress vs tailor has an incorrect ring to it! 💗

Hi Marcy, just want to know why you are living now and why, if it isn't too personal. Also, just want to know if you are procrastinating making Robs suit again, right Rob?

HUSH HE MIGHT HEAR YOU 🤣 Rob's family is down south--since the pandemic we've been splitting time between here and NY. It's a wonderful change of pace 💗
