Could I give you a tip. I see that your threads are by the window, the threads need to be away from the sun and light as it rots the threads. Love your tutorials 👍

Really sad the perfeto mona jacket no longer free pattern 😭😢

Question: give me an idea of what you mean by a capsule wardrobe.

One of the reasons I got back into sewing (my mom taught me as a kid) is because I was “up cycling” some clothes and stumbled on some “inspiration photos” at Saks Fifth avenue, and thought “I can make that.” They would post beautiful skirts with nice fabric for over $1000. Sometimes up to $3000. Now that I have taken on this sewing venture my attitude is “why buy it when I can make it”. All of your cute tops inspire me so much. My sewing goal was to incorporate more color in my wardrobe because I mostly wore a lot of muted dark tones. No MORE😍

What a nice roundup of patterns! This is such a great for for new sewists to get started.

Is it possible to line a cardigan? I'd like a layer of satin to help it slip on and off, over knit shirts because they can be 'grabby'. But I don't know if you can line a knit with a woven like that. I'm also not sure how to do a lining, other than just make a duplicate and join at the edges? If you ever want to explain linings I'd be all ears!

Hey! I just found you. Not sure you’ll see this, but wondering what pattern you used for the top on the form

[chiaranarducci]

The description is incomplete.... I can't find the margot trousers pattern link....and even if I research I can't find it... could you please link it? I would like to sew them

Not a u tube user but was just looking for a simple pattern and came upon your blog thanks for that I live in Canada, where do you live?

[leandrikos]

Hi Alisa, the patterns from GBSB do not have instructions. Did you perhaps make a video when you sewed yours?

[thesnowgirl]

I am just returning back to sewingserving, after 40 years. You have giving me a new desire, through what you say, and techniques and tips. TY

I am sad... as I am very interested in the Agnes swing top but, it is NOT free 😔 it is 9.95$us ... do you know of a similar pattern that is free? I have to redo all my wardrobe as I just had a double mastectoy without implants and I think that a simple dress like this, without bust, would fit well. What do you think? Or do you have suggestions? I found sad that, regarding the number of women having this kind of surgery that there is no pattern for say for them 😳

I just found you and subscribed... thank you, I will go see your other videos

[kofks]

Hi Alisa - great video. I downloaded the Maria top and just finished assembling my paper pieces. I notice (or maybe it just looks that way) that you made all of yours out of wovens. Her instructions say the top is for knits. It also doesn’t have a seam allowance built into the pattern. Do you have any tips for making this top as a woven or are yours knits? I’m a bit confused and would like to have (or at least try) for some success when I make mine. Happy New Year!!!

[DawnLeslie]

Wow! I’m so glad I found your channel!🐶😊❤️

[foxxybrown]

Thank You for putting such a great list together. Lots of options 💜 xx

[Kyunghosto]

Hi! Thank you so much for sharing these free patterns! I just have a question on GBSB tunic. How do I get the instruction for that pattern?

[annamarieh]

Great ideas thank you. I would have loved to see more of your samples. I only got glances of top of what you were showing. I was curious to see what the hems looked like. I guess I could look them all up! Hehe.

Trying to get Mona jacket but how is it free? Thank you!
