I went thrifting with CatieOsaurus and Little Moon Witch, because FRENS! || Plus, THRIFT HAUL

I FOUND FRIENDS! I had the immense pleasure of going thrifting with CatieOSaurus and Felix (Little Moon Witch). We thrifted in Atlanta, GA and also went antique shopping in Marietta, Georgia as well. Georgia held some interesting vintage thrift finds and we all definitely scored in the thrift haul realm! From vintage sewing patterns to vintage clothing to weird vintage finds, this thrift with me was definitely one for the books.
Some come along and check out all of the shenanigans, including finding haunted antique items, vintage Star Wars memorabilia, and so many more thrifting adventures!

I made Butterick 5703 - my mother caught me swearing while I was attempting to do those damn darts....she was appalled until she tried to help me. A true bonding moment.

[@StephanieCanada]

Rachel, that is... AMAZING! That you for sharing!

[@rachelsiler7610]

@@StephanieCanada My Mom was the classic Lutheran Basement church lady -- VERY rarely swore and then it was a 'damn' murmured very softly.

[@angiesphalanges1960]

I recently discovered your channel. As I watched your pattern haul in this video, I found myself wistfully wishing you would pull up, “The Methodist Dress”, and BOOM! Right at that moment you held up to the camera Simplicity 6931! My heart leapt, my mouth went dry, and I stammer/squealed, “The Methodist dress! The Methodist dress!” You see in the 1970s as a teen novice to sewing, I discovered this pattern and made myself the long dress. In fact I made over a dozen for my mom, grandmother, 4 sisters and cousin. It was so easy, so comfortable, and best of all pretty much only needed to fit through the chest and shoulders because of the self tie. Soon all the ladies of my little church began making this dress , and it was forever dubbed “The Methodist Dress”.

[@TealCheetah]

With the diva cup, since it's medical grade silicone, you /can/ technically sanitize it. Im hoping the one in the video goes to a person in need of one, esp seeing as they're like $30+ new.

[@happyhippiehomeschool]

I have seen lower priced cup options popping up more recently, so hopefully they are becoming more accessible for those in need!

[@sueacord1678]

Back in 1976 I was in charge of costuming my university's production of 1776. That Bicentennial dress dress patter was used for my Abigail Adams dress. There was another one that was slightly different I used for Martha Jefferson. At that point "historical accurate" was not top priority just getting 25 male cast and 2 female leads in somewhat period look I used the male companion patterns and started grabbing interesting fabrics. Did you know that our founding fathers lived in polyester double knit? (LOL) So I had to go research the other patterns I used: Abigail was Simplicity 6787, Martha was Butterick 4260. For the men's clothes ---- most were variations of Simplicity 6741 and the rest were Butterick 4207 (Colonial Uniform with another Jacket view.) Then for the servants Butterick 4209. These 5 patterns costumed the production. This took me down memry lane.

[@hollyingraham3980]

Have we ever considered that Canada once may have been Cañada? Like 200 years ago? Much more common as a family name, is all.

[@suejanebreweries]

I made that kaftan when I was a teen! It was like a tent with enormous armholes but I loved it. Orange print with rickrack trim.

[@viviannefraser5974]

I made a yellow gingham apron with embroidery as one of my first sewing projects many decades ago!😂it now is in my granddaughters care.

Stephanie. I love, love your dress.

[@rivitraven]

Yes for a one size kaftan!

[@CarolineElizabethMartin]

This is such a sweet video

[@alib8758]

Malco Modes still makes those petticoats. And they're a bit larger than the tag implies. I wear a size L even though my dress size is a 22-24. They're about $50-60 new and worth buying.

[@StephanieCanada]

Oh wow! Thank you so much! That is so good to know! Maybe I will give it a try on before I make my decision.

[@stevezytveld6585]

Good catch for the Jim Crow museum. Well done. Yes for trying the one-size caftan. 38FF me is curious. Yes for the maxi dress. You could wear it to the beach. Oooh, I remember those pumpkins! You're lucky to find one. The big kids usually kicked them to pieces at some point on Halloween night. - Cathy (&, accidently, Steve), Ottawa/Bytown

OMGs! Catie is the reason I was diagnosed with adhd. 😂 at 43. TikTok!

[@honestytoafault]

3156! I made that in home ec class! Used a flocked blue gingham fabric!!!!!

[@Eloraurora]

With the one-size caftan, it says "proportioned to your height" on the front. Does that mean it has length options, or does the width change too?

[@theplussizecostumer]

I've made this and it's just the height that is proportioned, not the width.

[@amymooney6532]

I live in WR!! I frequent that store alot. That store/stall only recently started carrying patterns. I've picked up that Simplicity 2955 twice but put it back because Im not confident enough I could size it up enough for me. It's gorgeous and I hope to see it made someday :) Also I had no idea Mrs Depew was frequent visitor here as well 😍

[@kerryanderson7131]

The patterns must definitely be a new thing for that stall. When I went back in early September, there weren’t any. It’s been slim both there and at the Big Peach for decent vintage patterns.

[@deborahkilmer9271]

I made that caftan! I remember the cover picture.

[@natkavarisco490]

Yes. Make a caftan!!!

[@thetimelesscostumemaker1266]

This trip looked like so much fun! Yes, I want to see you make the caftan because I just happen to own that same pattern. If it works on you I might be tempted to make it for me.

[@StephanieCanada]

Got it! Everyone seems to be on the kaftan train. So I will add it to the list!

This was such a fun video! Loved the bicentennial pattern, also that petticoat was super cool. If I ever decide I hate myself enough to sew my own petticoat I’ll definitely be adding channels like that to make it height adjustable!

Butterick 6550 is *not* a tuxedo. It's a tailcoat. The tuxedo jacket was devised to get away from tail coats and vests for dining at American resorts in summer, like Saratoga. Tuxedos are square around the bottom and end at the top of the leg. Tail coats are cut with separate tails down to the knees.

Great Vidi -now with cultural sensitivity & context! But seriously you Rock That Dress Definately 90's most remember Grunge many forget Swing in his book GenerationX Coupland has a retro Romance style comic of a youg woman saying "But I can't leave yet my hair isn't 1940's enough!" Deep Jewel tones of red green or blue & shoulder pads are a tip off. An other hint is minimal Clean lines with massive attention to details or textures on fabric. I had such a suit myself. When worn the effect is as much Blade Runner as it is Double Indemnity 💝💋
