EASY MEDIEVAL PEASANT DRESS (AND CHEMISE)

[@emilywelsh5359]

Your advice at the end was so good - “don’t be a perfectionist so you can get stuff done” 🤓😂 Thanks for such an awesome video!!

[@iamvictoriarae]

I’m glad I can make videos you enjoy! Thank you!

[@zirconium2014]

I stopped being a perfectionist when I saw this 6yo kid sew real good, but cut stuff like a kid. And realising that seam allowances are a thing

[@Neddoest]

4:49 omg 😭 thank you… I’m new to sewing and until now I feel like _no one_ has said “the curves on the front and back won’t match up” and I’ve been going through mock up after mock-up driving myself nuts

[@MedievalMusgrave]

If anyone wants it’s fitted at the front but doesn’t know how to draft a pattern for it, do it with the rectangles then put it on inside out and make it’s fitted near the waist and super tight under the bust (gives it some bust support) and then the front lacing too. You can change how tight it is. Also embroidery thread makes doing the eyelets so much quicker!

[@libertyshull5690]

Historically accurate. I'm over here with a $1 bedsheer from goodwill that has stains on the bottom

[@rainbowconnected]

You explained this so well and made it feel really approachable, even for a beginner! It looks gorgeous! I also appreciate the reminder to just try things, even if they aren't perfect. To me, the feeling of a garment I made myself is far superior to anything I could buy. And the quality is almost always better than fast fashion. If you do eyelets again, try an awl instead of a seam ripper. It will part the threads instead of breaking them, leading to stronger and neater looking eyelets. I'm still working on getting them pretty too. They're just so much cooler looking and feeling than metal eyelets, even if they aren't perfect!

[@thejetcitywoman]

OMG! I had been driving myself crazy over how to dress up the ren fair chemise I just bought! Thanks to your simple rectangle/triangle simplifications, I'm going to make a little "overdress " from an AMAZING fabric remnant I found! Your instructions helped me so much! I've already cut out a muslin rough draft, once I tweak it, I'll make my garment. I have so much confidence to tackle it because of this video! I will post a picture when it's finished!! 😃 BTW, I haven't sewn anything since home-economics class back in the 80s... that's how confident I'm feeling after watching this!

[@angelbear_og]

Hmmm... you've probably figure out by now, but for any newbies -- you don't actually RIP a hole for eyelets. You use an awl (which, while pointy, is not a cutting tool), and you widen a space between the fibers. Then the eyelet stitching holds that space open and prevents distortion.

[@TotallyxKatiee]

I use a leather hole punch and embroidery thread. It looked like she used regular thread. I used regular thread too the first time I did hand sewn eyelets. She did a good job for a beginner.

[@barbarahowell3414]

Thank you . your drawings and explanations are easy to follow and much appreciated.

[@kristenstocker1381]

ok now i feel like i could actually do this! been wanting to make a kirtle for a couple years and u make it seem possible!

[@mariamifka]

Thank you soo much for this video. I'm new to sewing and had no idea where to start for a medival dress. Thanks to your video I just finished my own medival dress 🥰🥰🥰

[@danhurl1349]

Ok but this came out so well?!! I love the color and even without the fourth gore it still looks really full. It’s beautiful!!

[@darknessfierce4209]

I have watched so many videos on making a shift dress this is the first one that made sense Good work, good project

[@annieaquarius]

Once i make this i will be wearing it every day

[@kayn70]

This is awesome! I love the pattern walk through, I'm going to give this a go myself!

[@iamvictoriarae]

I’m so glad to hear it!

[@jessjess4077]

I love this! New to sewing and this is really helpful and now I'm gonna give it a try! And your advise in the end is something I just realized a week or two ago because I'm bad at being scared of messing up and end up not doing anything. So hearing you say that just kinda reassured me.

[@ariadne0w1]

If you can, use an awl instead of a seam-ripper to poke the holes for the eyelets. This will mainly part the threads around a hole instead of cutting them, which will make it stronger and less likely to rip. If you're worried about the structural integrity of your fabric, baste a strong ribbon like cotton tape underneath each side of the lacing seam, then make the eyelets through both layers.

[@itsme4693]

This green 😍 dress is awesome,.. I would make a few the same in different colours, and you can wear it with a nice apron, or a little shorter skirt over it,.. or a waist band with different colours braids.. I wear every day selfmade long skirts.. and is so feminine..

[@jmakit]

blanket stitch might be great to learn to do for your eyelet holes :)

[@kathysalkeldbonilla6541]

What a beautiful mossy green!

[@jeanetteharris7000]

I love the patterns. And I will definitely be making these!!!

[@Коричноеяблочко]

That is so cool! A am a beginner at sewing and I was a little scared to do something besides little pouches, but now I really want do something like this ❤ ❤ ❤

[@kaylieblack81]

Thanks for sharing. I liked the wee Ouran High School Host Club cameo :)

[@Ruth-xd2xo]

Try using buttonhole stitch on the eyelets in the future. It's really sturdy if done right.

[@TatakCrafts]

Really really love how everything came together in the end! You're so creative! 🧡🧡

[@gbk1t]

Love your patterned tile flooring ❤

[@megamiet1210]

OMG! This is perfect. I can't wait to get some material. I was looking at dresses on line, but this is way better. Thank you. Going to a Ren faire next months.

[@aivarizhtml]

[@jeanettecook1088]

This was great. I made a shift but my fabric was stiff, and the result wasn't very comfortable... but I love your drawings and explanations of the measurements. Very well done! 👏 🎉

[@boa1793]

Very cute! Great instruction!

0:19 after I finish the gown I will exactly match that picture. Both the clothes and the body posture. XD

[@sarasadiq6918]

Thank you so much for this! I’m going to a medieval themed halloween dinner, so this is perfect!

[@yukiko81]

[@kreativmitrohkost1475]

[@apmanda]

Nice work!

[@marisadigel3327]

Nice job!

[@akashanumberfive199]

Thank you It looks amazing

[@zina6581]

Really nice! Thank you!!

[@starfirekvg]

I love it, it's so simple and beautiful. One question, do you have the pattern? I can't see it right on video

[@ironrose888]

From what she says, you take your measurements and make your own pattern. I use wrapping paper left over from Christmas or birthdays. It has grid lines or dots that are one inch apart. Draw out the pattern pieces and use some cheap fabric to test the pattern. I used to have a friend and we would measure each other. Draw out the pattern and help each other out. I don’t know of anyone close to where I live that I could team up with. I’m in Wichita Kansas.

[@leatherbracelt]

I liked your diagrams :) although I already knew what the stitch was so I can’t tell you if it’s helpful lol

[@akehapkap6143]

Nice ☺️ Imagine they sewed all by hand. One person probably didn’t have more than one garment

[@CoverediCake]

The undergarment look pretty simple so I think they had some extra undergarment and matching with different overgarment..i have seen sleeveless overgarment so that's very easy to make..but for sure there was no overconsumption on clothing back then 😄

[@Waldemarvonanhalt]

Most women would've made all her family's clothing. If not the fabric as well. You'll be surprised how much a person can make once they become skilled at sewing.

[@artblaque5396]

Fantastic!

[@bunnyoppress]

3:29 for the dress section

[@yasameenmohammed4655]

Thank you so much ❤

[@zoehamilton9993]

Love ❤

[@moonriver_.]

awesome!!!

[@greaterthanme876]

I have a question about the gussets, I have made a T tunic before using this method, but I found the gussets puckered under the arms, yours look nicely fitted. Do you have advice on how to avoid the bulky underarms when making a garment like this?

[@hallowhyena]

for the chemise pattern, how wide should the base of the triangles be?

[@Helen-gv2lo]

You had 3 large triangles. Where does the 3rd one get attached?

[@christineyates2618]

That eyelet in only one layer of fabri is likely to rip out in only one wear.

[@heatherduke7703]

2:07 The verb is to fell 😅 You fell the seam, it is felled

[@crickis]

how long across the bottom are your gores for the outer dress?

[@maryhairy1]

You look so feminine unlike the “fashions” of today’s clothing. Well done!💜💜💜

[@natsinthebelfry]

What the fuck?

[@idkanymore790]

i gave the first like

[@ChubbyVampire_]

I have a question, did you use 3 or 4 of the triangle thingys? In your sketch it says 3 but you said later in the video you added one to the front as well. I my mind the one in the front would be kind of hard to do in combination with the lacing? Or does it stop a bit below that?

[@raiastravaganza2]

Hey she did 4 gores. You can see the front one 5:58min. I think it stops at the waist a bit below the lacing slit.

[@theoddbody1856]

I spy Ouran High School Host Club

[@decnijfkris3706]

CHIC

[@bellevoor]

You're like a Micarah Tewers who thinks her audience is actually going to make the garment lol

[@ridiaraspberry4095]

I'm actually making the garment and I'm so grateful for actually helpful instructions 😭😭😭😂❤️

[@blueismylove3128]

​@@ridiaraspberry4095Right, lol. Is that not the point of this video?

[@sheridansherr8974]

I am going to do the garment. Nothing to lol about

[@Maria46823]

I love the style of medieval and Celtic dresses definitely going to try it.

[@akashanumberfive199]

Well yes. Some of us are actually looking for the instructions.

[@Darkeyedgem]

no sub titles do not help

[@korneliaolawsky1502]

Unterrock falsch, Schuhe falsch, Gürtel falsch und das Klimbim über der Hüfte haben Frauen im Mittelalter nicht getragen. Man sollte sich erstmal informieren, bevor man so was zeigt.
