The Cotswolds footage is beautiful. I was excited to see Columbia Road. I visited in the '90s, purchased three ceramic finials to top bamboo stakes for sweet peas. I love them and your visit. Thanks

This was a super demonstration. All of it was clear. I didn’t catch how you finished the seams. Were they trimmed, or just pressed? Thank you! It is a beautiful piece.

That must have taken you a long time to put this together. I love the look of the ballroom skirt and white shirt. Too bad fancy events aren't in my future. I am going out at the end of January to a supper and comedy show. I think that is an opportunity to dress up a bit. I was thinking wide leg jeans and a cream silk blouse. A couple of years ago, I bought a silk wedding gown at a thrift store and took it apart. I was going to try dying it, but now I think I will use it as is. I also found a camel hair coat at a thrift store I could wear over top. Your one piece jumpsuit is stunning!

beautiful lace skirt. I have just sewn a shortened cardigan pattern white vest with designs on the back fabric piece which is a cotton/poly. I also made a pure white stretch poly blend cardigan with an elastic on the back waist to give it shape. Next I am making a dusty pink twisted wrap top. Love your videos

Thank you for a very great video. A lace skirt is timeless, and your version is beautiful. I do not live in the UK so I would have to pay more for my materials. But well worth it. A lace skirt and a pair of velvet trousers are just fantastic staples.

I really enjoyed seeing how you made your pencil skirt. Despite your nervousness about explaining your method, it seemed quite relaxed. I like how you acknowledge that there are more than one way of doing things. So many tutorials can be rigid in their process, but I like the loose creativity of yours. The lace skirt is beautiful!

Please don’t be nervous. Historically I am a needlework teacher ( those were the days). You did a good job explaining. Skirt is beautiful.

Thank you for the demo. I understood your method completely. I wish I could find great fabric as easily as you can living in London! The way you bordered the self hemline was very interesting. I love a pencil skirt!

For your leftover boiled wool, how about The Makers Atelier's "The Flared Top." I have sewn 3 of them! If you scroll down the images on that pattern page, you will see one in boiled wool. It doesn't have to be so flared as the tops shown in more flowing fabric. Looks more like a stylish pullover. Just a thought. TMA has a lot of boiled wool options in their pattern line that does not need a lot of yardage. :)

Beautiful makes! Please would you consider showing us a tutorial make with sequins? I’ve done a simple top and trousers in a stretch sequin fabric (the glued on kind), and it wasn’t exactly how I pictured; the fabric kept growing, and I had to wipe the glue off my needle constantly. Clearly didn’t know what I was doing and possibly poor quality fabric!

Hi, thank you, yes I am planning a series of make tutorials in the New Year, sequins are tricky! it depends alot also on the fabric they are on!

I loved the format of your video and the pattern pairings. I'm wondering which mood pattern was used for the tank top you wore with the lace skirt?

Hi Dawn, I used the Sylvan Tank top/dress pattern but I filled in the shoulder to make it les "cut away".

Enjoyed all of it, especially the latter part where you shared your makes. Would love to see an episode where you could also review some Vogue Couturier patterns (or vogue paris original) where vogue partnered with luxury brands (Lanvin, Dior, Valentino) in earlier decades for licensed patterns and how they could be modernized for today. 😊

@lizsheridan535715 күн бұрын
Fantastic vlog as usual, you put a lot of work into them and it is much appreciated. Your makes are inspiring and I would love to hear more about how you backed the fabric onto jersey and then lined with jersey and the rationale for doing that, obviously your design background gives you the edge for these evening looks.
@gemimalondon14 күн бұрын
Hi Liz, thank you, to use the jersey as an interlining, you just treat the 2 layers as one and it's usually easiest to baste together both layers, in the case of the jumpsuit the lining was exactly the same as the outer and I just bagged out around the neck and armhole, hope that makes sense!

Great inspiration Rachael! Love this video! Bennett’s silks used to have everything! I don’t know if they are still trade, but you could give them a go. It’s about 10 years since I used them. Good luck. 😃😘Also, I would love to see a tutorial of you making your lace skirt, it’s stunning! I’ve never heard of Sister Mag patterns, I’m going to give the blouse pattern a go, it looks beautiful. Thankyou so much Rachael. 🥰

Such an inspiring video, lots of great ideas many of which are quite simple styles made special by the use of stunning fabrics. So , thank you for putting it all together. You have reminded me that I actually have a black velvet cowl neck top somewhere ( must search it out ) all I need to make is a black pencil skirt in something luxurious and I'm done !!!
