How To Sew A Visor With A Perfect Brim | Sewing Therapy Tutorial

Hat Tutorials / Sew Along 2023

Hello, Sara here. My new video about the Melilot Sunni Visor is up! This is the second video for the Melilot Sunni Pattern, the first being the Sunni Hat, which you can find on my YouTube Channel, Sewing Therapy. This video is for the Sunni Visor version of the pattern and after making both, it’s so hard to say which one I prefer as both are amazing. The large malleable brim is my favourite feature.

My favourite feature of this hat is definitely the wide brim and with some effort, it’s just the right stiffness and bendable, thanks to the flower wire. I’d love to hear how your hat turned out! Please tag me and feel free to leave any thoughts and questions in the comments section below. And if you want to see the Sunni Visor version, check out that video on my blog and let me know which Sunni you prefer. Until next time, 안녕!

Sewing Tips | How To Draft Your Own Sewing Pattern -Part.1 Maple Skirt-

Make Nine 2022

Hello, Sara here. Today’s sewing tip is something new and special: drafting your own sewing pattern! Hoping that this skirt will become your favorite, I’ve prepared this video. I’ll walk you step-by-step on how to draft your own Maple Skirt pattern using a piece of cardstock.

You probably know me well enough to know how much I love skirts and dresses. I took everything I love about a skirt and put those elements into the Maple Skirt. This Skirt really is the perfect skirt pattern for me!

The Maple Skirt is an A-Line Midi Skirt with the maximum volume that your fabric allows. This skirt is adjustable and customizable, meaning every Maple will be different and unique to you.

As this is not yet an actual skirt and is still just a drafting of the pattern, you are free to adjust the volume and length. And if you’re confident enough, you can go ahead and sew yours right away. But if you need my help, please wait for the Part 2 video which is a step-by-step sew-along video.

How To Sew Jale Dress From Schnittchen Patterns | Garment Sewing Tutorial From Sewing Therapy

Garment Sewing Tutorials / Sew Along 2023

Welcome back to Sewing Therapy. I’m Sara and I invite you to sew a Jale Dress with me. The Jale is a new pattern by Schnittchen Patterns that is a Blouse or Dress with an oversized fit with wide cuffed three-quarters length sleeves. Schnittchen recently relaunched their shop along with some new patterns and I had the pleasure of making the Jale Dress! Congratulations Schnittchen Patterns on your shop relaunch and we are excited to see what the future holds for you!

I found the Jale to be perfect for the transition between seasons as it can be worn as a shacket or a standalone dress. Although the dress has an oversized fit, it still retains a feminine tone and shape, which is something I really love about it. I added pockets to mine as I always feel the need to have somewhere to put my hands. The Jale has some really lovely details and I’m feeling delighted with how my newest dress is coming along!

And to celebrate their new pattern, Schnittchen Patterns is generously offering our Sewing Therapy community a discount! You can find more details in the description section below.

Before we get into the pattern, just a quick highlight of the subscribe to help us grow our Sewing Therapy community. Thank you!

Schnittchen Patterns kindly offer Sewing Therapy community 15% of the Jale!
Use the code “SEWINGTHERAPY”

HOW TO SEW A STYLISH PHEN SHIRT – The Ultimate Step-by-Step Sewing Guide

Garment Sewing Tutorials / Sew Along 2023

Hello and welcome back to Sewing Therapy. I’m Sara and today I’m sewing a Phen Shirt by Pattern Fantastique. When Nicole from Finchley Designs generously gifted me her self-designed fabric printed from Spoonflower, she also sent me the Phen Shirt pattern – thank you, Nicole! I envision making a really cute and unique Phen Shirt with this khaki-printed modern jersey fabric. But since the gifted fabric is precious to me, I first made a wearable muslin using a green linen fabric to avoid any mistakes in my final version. You’ll be able to see my second Phen Shirt made using this fabric on my social media! Thanks to Nicole, I am able to make this top and I invite you to join me!

Do you recall the Vali Dress video from about a year or so ago? That pattern was also by Pattern Fantastique and I am a huge fan of their designs as they are one-of-a-kind and really well-crafted. Pattern Fantastique describes the Phen shirt as the not-so-classic, classic shirt and I love these dramatic oversized batwing sleeves and the very unique nipped-in high hip hemline. However, it can be challenging to envision how the shirt is made as it is constructed uniquely and they rate the skill level as intermediate/advanced. But I am here to help you and sew along with you!

All three versions give off very different moods with the only difference being the collar styles. It can be unclear as to which collar is which, as there is no identification provided. My guess is that the version with the collar stand only must be Collar Option A and the other is Collar Option C, according to what the pattern pieces are called in the instructions. All three options are charming, and today I will make Option C with you. The process is the same for all options so please choose the style that you like best.
