How-to Make Spats, Threadbanger Projects

[@amberlbrowning]

I'm a country girl I'd never even heard of steam punk b4 Threadbanger...... Not many if any ppl. around here dress like that but I love being exposed to new things and new ideas!! Love you threadbanger!!!!

[@spidaminida]

I don't know if they mentioned it, but charity shop leather jackets are a good source of cheap leather.

[@Tai-Rex]

Also couches. Look for leather couches in the free section of craigslist or such. Usually at least the back panel is salvageable, which can be something like 3x6.

[@MephistoRolling]

Steam punk is wicked!! the music the clothes and of course the inventions!!!! all awesome

[@saltpedlars1403]

Zoe Morrigan KNOWS how-to a HOW-TO video. Excellent professional instruction. Thank you!

[@amurderofcrowz]

[@fromruinstudio]

You Guys and Gals @ the Banger ROCK!! Thanks so much for all you share.

[@abusivebunnie]

I remember when this came out 😭 I still love you guys! #threadhead4life

[@MsBlackIris007]

You guys rock the Steampunk DIY groove - I am thoroughly inspired!

[@LaMichiganR]

I am going to Barcelona, but I want to keep my tennis shoes on everywhere. I am going to try to make spats for my tennis shoes, so I can keep them on when we go to the fancy events.Thank you for this vid.

[@professor-x999]

yay! this is great. you guys rock. I love the way you invite guests to the show

[@rileyday5634]

THIS IS SO INFORMATIVE! What happened?!?😂😂

[@cptnwilliamread]

Excellent how-to; Rare to find someone who knows what they are doing-I think I'm going to make a pair for work out of canvas. Thank yOu SO MUCH!

[@LostWax]

Nice work, gotta love a pair of spats!

[@Yithmas]

Excellent! A full-throttle thank you to all of you.

[@nekonezume]

This is too perfect--I'm planning a steampunk meetup next month-ish and this is great inspiration! Thanks!

[@ramise5932]

Thanks for showing the pattern making process. Very good.

[@AKHP35]

Awesome. I saw non-video version of this and couldn't really figure it out. So good to see it in motion!

[@BlakLotus]

Yes. you can find the leather needles in the needle section of your craft store.

[@trinabrown7332]

you are so great!!! I love the steam punk recycling shoes, so cool thankyou

[@larabuggy3]

Love it!!! Thanks so much!!!! Making Steampunk costumes for Hubby and myself, fun fun!!!!

[@june32nd]

spats should be brought back. there was such class to style in the good old days

[@etraig]

great spats, and that zipper trimmed felt hat is real chic. Corrine sure can work those Cocktail hats.

[@ruthanna4713]

that's a beautiful pair of shoes

[@weker1]

Fantastic, Love This Steam Punk Revisit episode!

[@PockyNightmare]

yay! i knew spats aren´t difficult to make! love u guys!

[@Umikumao]

Marvelous - If I make a pair of these I can put off getting proper boots until later. Thanks!

[@Girlintherocket]

Super! Yes I agree! Lots of clarity in the explntn. A+

[@victoriaheckman5933]

Thanks for sharing this informational video. I'm going to try incorporate some of your ideas into making me some tall spats so that I look like I'm wearing fashion boots. I just can't find any "real" fashion boots to fit my very wide calves.

[@Kharizmah]

I'm using this for a similar concept as you. I'm going to cover boots that have lace-up. Possibly the only boots that wide-calved folks can wear. (You could trace a store pair with lace-up too.) I just need to make them a little taller so it can flap over as pirate boots.

[@MadDuckInc151]

I love this pattern! I made a pair in white for my combat boots.

[@DeathAngelSuki]

Making some Spats for my Joker outfit. Thanks for this tutorial!

[@crimsonrose]

YES I have been wanting to make spats forever!

[@TheChaBuku]

This is helpful... but it seems like a lot of the video is cut out. I'm not too thrilled about the video editing. It seems to jump ahead quite a bit when it could have more information.

[@AKStone-mo7ck]

I am attempting to do a spat out ov an older pair of side zip up boots. I just can't seem to wrap my head around how to make this happen. Why? I don't know. But I been staring at this already cut out piece ov bomb red leather boot I have taken the soul off of. Literally staring at it. Attempting to figure this out. . I got nothin. Can anyone help? Please? I'm getting all teary eyed here and quite thirsty. Being I been I. My shed here in Phoenix AZ for for days now hoping it will just hit me on how to make this happen! But this zipper is throwing me off and the fast it don't open up all the way. The red leather I'm using for my spat is 11" tall which is 2 inches taller than the boot it will be going on if this helps any. On a size 9 womans shoe

[@PeachPlastic]

Did you ever succeed in figuring this out? I'm attempting the same, searched the web after dismantling my boots, and found your comment. My reasoning is that it doesn't matter if the zipper opens fully if I'm leaving it in, which seems the easiest approach (although not as fancy as, let's say, a line of buttons). In theory, I should be able to slip into the spat contraption prior to any shorter shoe, and then figure out a way to close the rubber band I should attach at the bottom ..... right? Yes? Maybe?

[@sakara75]

fantastic tut! got to ask what's the sewing machine the lady's using?

[@elpajaronegro]

Excellent tutorial.

[@charlotteautumn3262]

* VIOLENTLY RIDES TRICYCLE * HELL FUCKIN YEAAAAAAAAH!

[@silversteampunk]

Thank you SOOOO much for making this tutorial!!!

[@loef27]

oh my goodness - corinne did you make the hat you are wearing in the intro, if not where can i find one like it?

[@kssykssygg]

I don't care if I sound like a loser but I think steampunk is gorgeous!

[@YasMean]

Corinne I LOOOOOVE your hat!!! where did you find that or did you make it!?

[@annaiba7]

spats are super cool!!

[@RicardoRedefined]

:D HOOORAY! My prayers were answered lol. Amazing tutorial.

[@megantaur3683]

wait, there were two pieces, now there are three? where did the third piece come from?

[@AshRowan]

one piece is the side without buttons. the two smaller pieces are the parts where the buttons and the button holes go. That's why she said to cut the fabric pattern apart and trace them. So you have three pattern pieces.

[@megantaur3683]

AJ Michelle Madam Adriana thanks alot! 😊

[@greenappletea123]

I was just curious if I could use a section of your video as background video for Zoh's new fashion show at Otakon? Let me know ~ thanks

[@crazychris0003]

It's hard to find good jockey caps... mine is woven right now, and I need to upgrade to something more durable. This video is great, I'll be making some spats soon!

[@3853881]

great vid. perfect for my steampunk costume! thanks!

[@awague]

Un grand merci pour ton partage

[@arisu229]

her freaking hat is amazing...damn

[@PurpleCowsMakeGJ]

This is fantastic. Do I use regular thread? :o

[@MSMranger]

spats have been used by the military throughout the world for hundreds of years (seriously) they used to make theirs by hand so as long as your hand doesn't cramp out you should be good to make yours by hand also.

[@twylitefox]

Great video! I'm hoping to make some spats out of a suede I just happen to have lying around. I'm going to me making them taller than what this video shows. Any other tips for taller spats?

[@hendrinavos9456]

Thanks for the helpful tutorial.

[@Isabella-iq8vz]

CAN YOU still make video responses?

[@artemisiapersephone]

hey corinne, did u make your hat? it's awesome!!!!! if u did, can u make a tutorial? love your projects!!!

[@SupaSal62]

Thanks guys. That's very helpful. I'm trying to make a pair to cover shoes that will make them look like pirate boots.

[@rakhtatumemen]

i love her headpiece too! :) i wish they'd do a tutorial about that! :D

[@BigCrafterTX]

Do you need a different needle for sewing with leather?

[@Ellajames__]

are you going to show us more maker fair stuff in a vid? i'd love to see some stuff :)

[@rorkimaru]

Corinne dressing extremely hot today! That was a great tutorial, very well presented though I've one question. Aside from looking cool what are spats for? Do they protect your shoes or something?

[@peggyzoewong]

I'm so gonna try one of those

[@TheKennyJacksonMJ]

can you make it without leather?

[@ruthanna4713]

those shoes.... so beautiful

[@twylitefox]

I would imagine so, you would just need to increase the top and bottom of the pattern as well in order to account for a finished edge.

[@StapledArsonist]

I needed this for my Joker cosplay.

[@GoRavenRavenRocks]

a good was to hold materail together insted of using pins use paperclips

[@yuventarei]

Hei Corrin, I like your blouse.... did you make them? can u tell me how to make that blouse? i have a lot of laces lying around my closet so pls tell me how to make my own. thx a bunch Regards,, Yuventa from Indonesia

[@FinsternisSan]
