Video: How to Sew a Welt Pocket!
Hi, lovely patrons! As promised, here is a little welt pocket video tutorial to help you sew the Dandy Waistcoat, this month's guest artist design. We've drafted the welt and pocket pattern pieces to make this simple to sew (no guesswork!) and I'm sure this video will help you along. Welt pockets are relatively easy to sew, but hard to explain--the visuals are everything!
As I mentioned in the Dandy pattern post, we were so excited about this design that we decided to double your content and bring you a version in our standard Charm sizing. It's coming soon, and you can see a little sneak peek in the video thumbnail!
I hope you're loving the Dandy Waistcoat!
xoxo,
Gertie

I’ve made two muslins and I am having difficulty putting it together. Unfortunately, twice, the waist darts not align nicely. I am not sure what I am doing wrong. I plan to make a third muslin. I will size down again. I hope I nail it.
Will there be a video of the whole project? Because I for one is having a hard time putting this waistcoat together.
Oh, this (maybe patsy blouse) is what I've been looking for! Need to order it :D
Hmmm what shirt is this????
Good eye! I love it.
I love this! And can’t wait for the darted pattern 😍

Thank you! The great thing is you can use the Dandy welt and pocket pattern pieces and apply them to any other pattern :)

Saaaaame! I have my fabric ready and I started a matching pencil skirt last night. Charcoal gray wool with a hot pink pinstripe and hot pink floral lining 💗
