You are the only one who help us make the pattern..others sell it and we really thank you for that.

As a beginner mostly I face difficulties in pattern making. And in that case you are a perfect tutor for me. I find your videos quite helpful. Thank you for inspiring and helping us. Love from India.❤

Oh my goodness amazing, clear, and concise tutorial. I adore your work! Thank you so much I really want to try this one out.

You are a queen for showing us how to make a pattern! I've made two of your projects now, they were my 2nd and 3rd ever homemade clothes and they fit like a glove! Also I felt confident enough to adjust the top so that the front pannels cross over instead of ruffling it. I love how the whole dress turned out and I can't wait to see what you are going to help us sew next!

Every week she comes out with a new gorgeous dress and every week I sit through the whole video saying‘I’ve gotta go make this NOW’

I havent touched my sewing machine in months, so many videos to catch up with 😭
Thank you for this tutorial, the dress looks really cute 💖

Idk how I got lucky enough to have the exact same measurements as you but it makes following your tutorials way easier. I feel like I have no excuse not to sew now, so THANK YOU JESS! You are amazing!

I finished the dress yesterday and I am so happy with it. Is so flowy and flattering. I edited the design a little bit by putting the ties in the back 4 cm deeper and making the
v neck a little less deep. Thank you so much for the tutorial. I found it really simple to make the pattern and follow your instructions.

Adorable, keep sewing
Waiting to see the winter collection

I love your videos and all the explanations of how to make the different pattern pieces! Thank you so much for doing these. One thing which would make the videos even better (and therefore easier to follow) is using material where you can see whether it's the right / wrong side, OR, just a mention of whether it's the right sides together / wrong sides together etc. That extra information would be invaluable!!

I just finished this dress. It looks so amazing!! Thank you Jess for your videos!!! You make me sew the seemingly impossible <3

[lindanobetsiki]

Thank you Jess, I am soo glad I found your videos. I made this dress it looks really beautiful. It took me long to make it as I have not sewn in a long time. Thank you for starting the video with taking measurements and making a pattern and your simple technique like the hair pin. I love your work

[KK-tccl]

You are a fabulous teacher! I appreciate your easy-to-follow tutorials! Thank you Jess! 😄❤

I'm Brazilian and I could understand all the details! you explain

[curtriceennis]

This is such a beautiful dress ! It's exactly the style I've been searching for which I'm wanting to make one of for myself. I never knew how to measure, exactly, to obtain the "proper" measurements for a custom - made dress. Thank You So Much for sharing this video with us and letting us know the techniques you use. I do appreciate it all. 😻

[rebeccamonteiro]

I spent my entire day watching your videos and i’m super excited to make some beautiful dresses. Thanks for your content ❤

[islandgirl]

The dress is beautiful...its the perfect summer dress...I love how girly it is....can difinately see myself wearing it....another good masterpiece👏👏👏👏

[Sobotke]

Woow! I have never sewed anything but I want to so bad. I'm going to learn how to do it. Whenever I know the basics I want to sew a dress and your tutorial is the best by far! It's so clear and structured. Pls keep doing what you're doing! Thank you!! 💕

[miracle.edits.lyngdoh]

Thankyou for showing us measurements according to our individual bodies. Last time I followed one of your old DIY summer dress tutorial & since you did'nt show how you got the measurements the dress I made was too big & too long for me. But eventually I made some adjustments so it turned out good. Thankyou for your videos they are so good ❤️ & especially now that you show measurements I am sure when I make another dress it will fit perfectly in the first try 🙏

Such a gorgeous dress. I love how dreamy it feels
