The winners are as follows:
Bundle #1 – Amy ” After being away from my sewing machine for a number of years,I recently reintroduced myself to my friend….my sewing machine. The humming of my friend is a song that helps me escape the stresses of my work day. I love sewing outfits that I wear to the office. It gives me much pleasure recieving compliments and knowing I couldn’t have done it without my friend, my sewing machine.”Amy never replied to the emails that we sent her, so we chose another winner.- Bundle #1 – MaudieBrid “Dresses! But really into buttoned-up shirts lately!”
- Bundle #2 – Tracy ” Jersey tops are my favourite thing to sew!”
I love sewing skirts and dresses and an working on improving my blouse-making skills. Sewing is my stress reliever!
I love sewing any kind of women’s apparel as long as it is not dress shirts! I’m too impatient for all of the details and intricacies of button plackets, cuffs and yokes demand haha!
Knit tops and tees. But long flowy skirts as well.
I love the way dresses make me feel, so dresses are my first choice to make.
I’m making leggings this moment! So fast and easy!
I love to make pants! I’m a new sewer and I’ve worn my first pair of pants to work 3x so far. Very happy!
I go through phases. A few years ago I would have said dresses, then pants and shorts, then more recently tops. Wonder what’s next!
Adorable things for my daughter. But I feel like it’s time to start doing some for me… A great excuse to try these plus size patterns.
Skirts are my favourite as they are the quickest and easiest with little fitting challenges. Having said that I make all my own pants as there is no ready to wear pants in this universe that fit me.
Tops and dresses
Tops. Easy, fast and versatile
I am currently enamoured with sewing dresses, to try and update my wardrobe. I’ve found that I can add sweaters, vests, jackets, & other accessories to totally change the vibe of the dresses.
I love to make myself dresses and hope to make 2017 the year when I make all my wardrobe.
Dresses – I love the fabrics, I love wearing them, and I love making them.
I love sewing a dress, there is something really fulfilling about sewing a garment that is a whole outfit in its own right. I always feel lighter and happier in a dress and get really excited about fabric choices, feels like there are endless options when creating a dress.
For a fast sew, my TNT Concord T. But I also like to take my time, with details, so especially coats. You get to wear them so much, so all the work is worth it,
Dresses – there is such variety of patterns out there.
Knit tops are easy, but I love sewing crispy cotton skirts too.
Skirts because they are easier to make.
Hm. I’m currently on a mission to sew tunics! I’d also prefer to only be in the drawing for the first set – the second has little to entice me personally. Thanks!
I love to sew dresses. That’s what I wear most of the time now, so it works out perfect!
Lately I’ve been enjoying skirts. I’ve realized that I like and use separates a lot in my wardrobe. Now I just need to start making tops and t-shirts
Shirts are my favorite thing to sew.
I love sewing peplum tops, circle skirts and dresses. I just can’t seem to get enough of it
I love sewing dresses and tops in cute crazy colors.
It’s got to be dresses….any fabric – cotton, stretch poly, viscose, scuba, wool, sateen, silk, linen. It doesn’t matter what the fabric is you’ll always find a pattern to suit. Good luck to everyone and happy sewing ?,
I like sewing tops. It is easier to fit since they usually fit without any adjustments on my part!!! I am psyching myself up to try sewing pants again!
I love sewing dresses and tops. These are the items I wear the most in my wardrobe (with jeans) and the ones I use the most.
Dresses! With pockets!!! I also like trying new things.
I love sewing tops and dresses! I am interested in the Winter package- love both of the dresses.
Clothes! Specifically dresses, button up the front shirts and things that require button holes.
I love to sew dresses!
I like knit tops, knit dresses, and knit cardigans! My favorite of the moment is a dress!
i like to sew dresses and skirts, but want to start sewing pants. I really like the Holiday/Winter patterns, very
nice!
So many choices as to my favorite article to sew…..But I would have to say it is a close race between shirts and jackets. I simply love the details that can be added to both of these and the professionalism that can be incorporated into them.
Keep up the good work ladies…..love seeing what other curvy women are sewing.
I enjoy seeing new blouses or tops to wear with basic pants-never skirts
Skirts and dresses I enjoy, but most of my sewing is making costumes for friends. In New Orleans there’s always a reason to dress up!
knit shirts are my favorite to sew up. I’m a new sewer and they are about all I’ve done! Hopefully I’ll branch out soon to skirts and dresses. Pattern pack 1 only please.
I like sewing Coats, because they are worn a lot, and it’s a lot of fun details to sew!!!
Skirts, mostly because that’s all I’ve sewn. 🙂
My go to tshirt pattern (idyllwild from itch to stitch). I know it fits perfectly so it’s just picking a sleeve length, cut and go!
Dresses! But really into buttoned-up shirts lately!
So far, dresses.
Tanks and shells. As easy as t-shirts, but with the added benefit of no sleeves.
T-shirts because they’re so quick and easy.
Dresses — so many fun options!
Skirts! almost no fitting for me there and they always look good.
Definitely dresses. But I’m trying to broaden my skills and sew other garments!
I love to sew dresses. They are so flattering and female 🙂
Dresses! Especially skater dresses. Hardly any matching and there is an entire outfit. I’m branching out into woven dresses now, to extend my love.
