Hey everyone, Sara here! Welcome back to Sewing Therapy! Today’s video is more of a tip and inspiration session rather than a sew-along. If you want to make your own patchwork tie dress, definitely watch this tip video and then check out my previous Tie Dress sew-along video.
First off, thank you so much for loving my patchwork tie dress. Honestly, I wasn’t sure what I was doing at first, and I was uncertain about the outcome. But what I love about our sewing therapy community is your enthusiasm for my new ideas. You all give me so much confidence, which I sometimes lack.
I want to share some tips with you, especially if you’re feeling unsure. Remember, there are many ways to do things, but I’ll show you my favorite method. Feel free to choose what works best for you from all the options out there.
This was my first patchwork tie dress, and brainstorming the combination took quite a while. The structure is relatively straightforward because the Tie Dress is already cut into panels, like the bodice for the centre and sides, and the sleeves. You can choose the fabrics you like for each part. I used the same fabric for the front and back this one but chose two different fabrics for the centre panels for the second to create two distinct looks.
Thank you for watching and for joining me in creating this patchwork Tie Dress! I hope you have as much fun making it as I did. Remember, gathering all your favorite fabrics together will result in a uniquely your style patchwork. Keep experimenting, stay creative, and most importantly, enjoy the process. Tag me @yoursara_k and use #SewingTherapyTie on Instagram so I can celebrate your creations with you! Happy sewing, and I’ll see you in my next video!

Hello, Sara here, and I’m excited to share my latest pattern with you: The Tie Dress! Inspired by my previous summer’s makes, I’ve finally brought this vision to life, and I’m thrilled to sew along with you.
Let me give you a quick overview of the pattern. The Tie Dress features four ties, allowing for versatile styling options. Whether you prefer a loose fit or a tight one, you can tie the ties at the front, back, or even asymmetrically—it’s entirely up to you! I’ve designed the ties to be a comfortable length, but feel free to adjust them to suit your preferences.
There are two neckline variations to choose from. You can opt for a cute and elegant boat neck or switch to a structured V-neck for a sharp yet comfortable look. And if you prefer a deeper V-neck, go ahead and customize the V to your liking.
The Tie Dress offers two sleeve options: Short Sleeves and Elbow-length Sleeves.
The Short Sleeves feature a unique bottom opening detail, adding a touch of flair. If you prefer slightly less ventilation around the arms, you can easily sew longer side seams to block the opening.
For the Elbow-length Sleeves, I have incorporated an inverted pleat detail. This subtle feature enhances the elegance of your arms, creating a dramatic yet slimming effect.
The Tie Dress comes with pockets! However, I must emphasize that they are entirely optional.
Personally, I lean towards omitting pockets as the construction and versatility of the Tie Dress are such that pockets may disrupt the silhouette.
But I understand the allure of pockets as they’re incredibly handy! So, if you’re determined to have them, fear not, as I have provided instructions for adding inseam pockets as an option. feel free to omit the pockets if you’re hesitant about their impact on the silhouette.
The charm of sewing your own garments lies in the ability to customize your fit to your unique body and style preferences, perfectly.
Okay, now let’s dive into creating your Tie Dress together!

Hello, I’m Sara and welcome back to Sewing Therapy. I’m wearing my newest pattern, the INFIT Dress. I invite you to join me and sew your own!
Here’s the general idea about this pattern. I designed this pattern, hoping you to create a successful infit that evolves into a fantastic outfit.
Each file offers layer options for every size. Choose the file that suits your needs best.
INFIT is designed for beginners, featuring no closures for ease of sewing. Its neckline offers a perfect balance, providing easy wear and bra strap coverage.
I created Sleeve Wings to simplify sewing sleeves and allow for contrasting fabric use, adding a unique touch to your INFIT and distinguishing it from other garments.
INFIT includes patch pockets that are simpler to sew than inseam pockets,
INFIT works well with many fabrics, and I recommend trying different types to discover your favorite looks. However, avoid very stiff fabrics to prevent excess bulk in this oversized design.
I have made several versions and love them all. Here are the fabrics I used for my INFIT Dresses.
I’ll stop talking. I hope you find joy in your sewing therapy from now on!
My black Infit with patch pockets: SS Linen in Black My black Infit with inseam pockets: Real Linen in Black My grey Infit: Terrazzo Linen Jacquard in Iron My purple Infit: Real Linen in Eggplant

Infit is customizable, so experiment with the bodice and sleeve width and length to suit your style, as each adjustment can alter its vibe. Since oversized garments fit differently on various body shapes, understanding how Infit looks on you is crucial.
I hope you enjoy sewing Infit! Visit my Instagram for lots of inspirational reels on sewing and styling Infit.
I’m Sara, and I’m thrilled to guide you through the process of creating a Hanbok Jacket today.
First and foremost, I want to express my gratitude for your trust and support in purchasing my initial pattern, the Hanbok Wrap Dress.
I’m excited to share that you can hack and sew this jacket using the wrap dress pattern. Additionally, I’ve recently introduced a standalone Jacket pattern. So, if you prefer not to make the dress version, you can also get the pattern separately.
Thanks to its high neckline and sleeves with some ease, this versatile jacket pairs well with virtually any top and is the perfect fall season layer. If it’s jacket season where you are, I recommend that you choose heavier fabrics such as wool, denim, fleece, or tweed.
Let’s get started!
p.s. Oh If you made a few hanbok dress now, watch the fabric cut and you can skip the part from 0 to 3.
