making high quality tshirts at home because fast fashion IS SILLY!
clovis_the_spook: I adore these basics videos! I feel like basics are often overlooked when it comes to a self made wardrobe, and your pure joy during the process makes it intoxicating to watch
amig2668: i love these videos of you just making things you’ve been needing. the super crazy fun projects are great and exciting but it’s also nice to think about how many little day to day improvements can make your life easier yk
thebugbear: These basic videos are sometimes even more helpful to me as a beginner sewist! I love getting tips and seeing the creative process. And talking about mistakes helps me so much - I've also been troubleshooting things on my machine.
Lazydaisy646: That neck quartering tip is a game changer. This video has been so helpful..thank you
BenthicBuddy: My biggest collection is of "homemade magnets" which are all just stickers that I put on sheet magnet and cut out. I can't stop making them, I have hundreds.
Love how the shirts turned out. I like the spiky pizza cutter thing that you use for pattern copying tech.. quite good!
gemlynford9429: I’m currently working on my FIRST sewing project EVER! At least trying to. I was so excited I bough these bedsheets at the thrift store (because what are bedsheets if not a giant piece of fabric) and a book with “15 easy beginner patterns”. I was ready I was hooked! I decided to make a mock up because I really wanted to do my cool bedsheets justice. Turns out the very easy ruffle skirt pattern was not easy and now I am going line by line through the pattern trying to figure out what it means. oh well! If I do the hard work of learning now later down the line I will have great knowledge and understanding and hopefully a cute skirt!
billiebluesheepie: The editing of your videos is sooo fabulous, I can’t leave without mentioning it.
doublestory_a: I haven't finished the video yet but a walking foot is really helpful for sewing stretch fabric on domestic machines!!! it changed the game for me!
charlizeskidmore2182: Everytime I open Youtube I'm hoping to see a Carly vid pop up! The best vibes are here!
RebeccaEWebber: We are really on the same wavelength this week. I am designing a whole new nutrition plan for a client juggling multiple health challenges. Instead of just giving them a list of ingredients to eat I want to recipe test and today I made a lot of mistakes. But I went into today knowing I was going to mess up but learn from it so it feels like a win every time!
anastasiab700: I am in the middle of moving so no time to work on my crafts but going through my fabric and craft stash and organizing it all has been super invigorating. I keep finding things i forgot i had and getting tons of ideas!
michaelamulligan948: Making your own T-shirts rocks!!! I’ve been on a t-shirt kick for the last two weeks, so it was serendipitous that this video came out now. Much love!
swqueep: My biggest collection that I actually count as a collection is vintage duck figurines! Every time I see a little duck at an op shop or antique store I HAVE to buy it if it’s a reasonable price
krisjx3: Locked in and ready to watch another masterpiece!
jenna6800: Ahh that floral long sleeve is so raaad I find it so hard to find a tshirt that fits well, my two fav I've had nearly 15 years. Can't wait to make my own someday!
GetOfflineGetGood: I collect DVDs, I have more than 200 of them
_elbear_: 3:14 thats a top notch joke carly
sumsum8272: My biggest collection is of wooden ice lolly sticks - i'm still convinced i'm eventually going to make some kind of bird/fairy house with them (I've got three tins full and counting)
RoundMtnDryGoods: My biggest collection is sewing patterns, lol. Sewing tools is a close runner up.
I like the fit of your pink raglan tee as it is. Looks comfortable. If you do anything, maybe bring the sleeves in just a hair so they don't cup out...but I don't think it's a big deal at all.
I need to make a bunch of new tees because all my clothes are getting worn out.
po_orpanda: to answer Elijah’s question of the week, i have a physical collection of every single nancy drew pc game. i’ve had them since i was a kid and i keep them on my main bookshelf alongside all the books i read for my work as a phd student. the juxtaposition of those games with my work encapsulates my whimsy lol
jessicaruthb: Thrilled to see this video on the eve of my first stretch project.
tiffanyc8837: Fountain pen ink! ️ also this is PERFECT timing because I’m just working up my courage to make a t-shirt
123oliviap3: Yay for double collar!!!!!!! I have been desperate to figure that out as I upcycle some sweatshirts. Love it!!!
CBCostumer: I have to try this—finding flattering T-shirts for my shape is an exercise in near-futility.
My biggest collection—books
amys3168: My largest collection is probably pressed penny’s. We have hundreds.
SeSeMittens: I love the longsleeve with the flowers, it's sooooo cute
kira-r9l9r: For me, twin needles for collar and hems were the absolute game changer in sewing knit shirts and t-shirts! No skipped stitches and a super professional look.
