Wow you did an amazing job on that dress with an old sheet! I'm so impressed! But also just love your attitude, hot glueing fabric on a dress sounds like a creative way to solve the problem 🤣 Can't wait to see what you sew next. You should try a quilt jacket, they are lots of fun for quilters! I'm yet to get past the cutting out the paper pattern part this month.
I love following your sewing journey!! 🥰 Also even though I’ve heard your okie yellow dress story before, I still DIED at the plan to hot glue the fabric to a ross dress 🤣🤣🤣
Cris Woods has a whole collection of no waste patterns (all rectangles and squares) that are based off your body measurements. They are simple-ish. Some are more simple (the envelope dress) than others. And she seeks out plus size testers to show them on bigger bodies and not just slightly bigger bodies. I also like Grainline Studio patterns, which come in plus sizes, but I am at the upper edge of her straight size block (it goes to 16 or maybe 18?) and haven’t used the other set (same garment, two different size ranges). I like that her instructions are very clear, link to video when you need more help, often have extensive sew-along blog content, and look like classic and basic fashion silhouettes.
