Tackling a UFO & Restarting Abandoned Projects

[@michellecornum5856]

YES! THRIFT HAUL! Wishing you all the luck!

[@binglemarie42]

I would love to see a thrift haul!!

[@brookrose3023]

From starting at “what was past me doing” to a bodice at least together is great! I, for one, would be interested in like a capsule gown thing, we’re you have one base skirt and a few over skirts and bodices and accessories that could be interchanged for various looks or events.

[@LadyRebeccaFashions]

I don't think they ever really went with more than two bodices, or possibly three max, for this era. However, I do feel like in the 1890s and early Edwardian era, when you start to get more into separates, the possibilities are almost endless.

[@MonaSkovJensen]

Yes to a thrift haul video! I love going to second hand stores so totally YES to seeing what you got!

[@marybull3715]

Thrift haul, yes please.

[@apriljodoin9643]

Thrift haul, yep!

[@tracyclark6208]

Thrift haul? Yes please!!

[@dunelife2267]

Yes please show the thrift haul! ❤️

[@denisebennett3144]

Yes please, I’d love a thrift haul. Great work with the velvet, it’s the devil’s fabric.

[@nataliestanchevski4628]

I have UFO's like that. I try to keep a sewing journal so I don't forget what I'm doing, but sometimes I forget to use the journal or can't decipher what I wrote down lol. Good luck with your panic sewing!

[@dellymel9840]

I love watching videos. Yes please to a thrift haul video.

[@nancywhite2014]

Yes to thrift haul video 🎉🥰

[@auntiezann5146]

Sure, we love a good thrift haul! And thank you for working on some UFO’s. Great inspiration!

[@teddy-3765]

Loving that this is a restarted UFO project. I have a MOUNTAIN of them.

[@MeadowoodRanch]

Thrift haul videos are always fun! Hopefully, not a hard video to pull together.

[@elainebye9090]

I'd like to see a thrift haul! That is turning out to be a luscious ensemble. I loooooooove that color velvet. In the late 60s for one of my formal occasions, my mom made me a circle skirt of very similar velvet. It had a wide waist band and I wore it with a cream or white lacy blouse.I loved it.

[@DOSBoxMom]

A thrift haul would be great! I know I love finding vintage yarns/hooks/etc. at garage sales & thrift shops, and would love to see what sorts of things a historical costumer might find while thrifting.

[@kayta84]

YES, thrift haul please! Love trifling💜 the bodice is looking good, love velvet. I like the change from the split front to the point, I feel the point fits the look of the skirt better. And the tail ads interest and flow to the back. This dress looks so good, even in the background on you dress form. I'm planing to sew my first velvet dress this year, so that will be fun.

[@jenniferstocker5462]

I just love the practicality of having two bodices… so smart!

[@Bexinmo]

That velvet just looks so sumptuous and luxurious.

[@alexiscarlton1355]

Good Luck. Love watching your sewing journey and have lots of fun!

[@kikaburra]

Would love to see the thrift haul and any restyling thrift stuff projects you might do! I'm on a kick of trying to make a bunch of old thrift stuff that I like but don't *love* look more vintage-inspired.

[@robintheparttimesewer6798]

Oh I love thrift hauls! When ever you want to do a thrift haul I’m in!! I often wonder what in the heck past me was thinking and what possessed me to do something that way! So I feel you! Also panic sewing! I’m with you on that one too!! I have faith that you will figure it out!

[@hattyburrow716]

Yes yes! Thrift shop haul… great. You have this, you always have this xxxxxx

[@TheBmweed]

I'm so glad to see I'm not the only person who has a secret stash of UFOs!

[@roxiepoe9586]

I have faith that you will accomplish all of it! (i say this as my ufo stares balefully at me from its position in its corner.)

[@alaskacosplay]

This video is super relatable to me as I too have evening bodices of gowns that are in progress and I abandoned as I have planned on wearing them to conventions back in 2020 and 2021 but I lost interest in even working on the hats and wigs that go with the costumes or some have not gone past the sketch phase

[@DOSBoxMom]

UFO is a common term in knitting and crochet, too -- and I have a few of them! (embarrassed blush)

[@Aldisia]

UFOs! I pulled out a tablecloth, started 20+ years ago!! Time to get it off the UFO bucket list!

[@fawntheresa5338]

Yes on that thrift haul! Best of luck with crushing your list of to-dos!

[@tinaperkins2052]

We used to live by Southcenter Mall. I know which Joann fabrics you where you were at. You bring back memories. I live in New York now, but I tune in so I can hear you talk about my old stomping grounds with my BF.

[@veronicapersson9124]

THRIFT HAUL!!!

[@Sekreterare75]

YES! Yes to thrift haul. I love thrifting

[@heatherkemp1846]

Seems like you are doing a thrift haul when you can. Best wishes xx

[@laurenle9812]

Yes please share the thrift haul! Have fun in Pt Townsend!

[@lauramcguire7970]

Yes please, I love a thrift haul!

[@mirimiriela480]

I was going to make matching blankets for me and a friend, and I made the one for my friend, and I have had the fabric for my own sitting in my stash for... five or six years at this point. And I've never admitted it to her either!! I have tons of UFOs but that's the saddest. I was living in an apartment where I had the space to work on a twin sized blanket flat on the floor, and goodness knows I don't have that now. That doesn't make it impossible, but it makes it a lot harder! Just wanted to share my UFO story that I have the most feelings about.

[@LadyRebeccaFashions]

I hope you're able to conquer it! Don't let your UFOs make you sad!

[@greenecrayon]

Always love a thrift haul

[@elisabethnoorduin8943]

Yes please! to a thrift haul video!

[@tashacano3324]

Definitely want to see the thrift haul!

[@queencailo]

Yes to thrift haul!

[@annapepple477]

Much luck getting everything done!

[@catstreat9434]

Absolutely show us the thrift haul! :D

[@fireangelx5]

Thrift haul sounds good

[@hannnahm]

What a startling different shape you are in the revised version compared to the original! I men, I understand you're still the same shape, but they make you look so, SO different.

[@anessaharris9947]

🇨🇦😃 yes please thrift haul!

[@The_Crafting_Gamer]

Would love to see a thrift haul

[@BCSchmerker]

+LadyRebeccaFashions *This bodice proposal can be modernized for Lolita with a zipper for the centerline closure and hooks and eyes for the trims. Easier donning and doffing than Victorian-spec.* For a fingerless-glove contingency (or no gloves), a burgundy multichrome such as Ｈ💿Ｌ💿 ＴＡＣＯ® Cats' Evasion will blend the fingertips with the velvet this project.

[@thorunns.craftstudio]

yasssss! thrift haul!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@nurmaybooba]

yes thrift haul!!!!

[@jennybartolo4360]

Yes thrift haul!

[@Nutmeag13]

Yes to thrift hall

[@mrdimitrescu8301]

Love your videos 🥰

[@LunaWolfbane]

*chants* Thrift Haul! Thrift Haul! :)

[@cherylkinkaid6801]

Thrift haul please.

[@KahoriFutunaka]

A great ensemble! To be honest I never thought of an evening bodice made of this kind of fabric, but now that I see it worn by you... it just feels right. Well done! Also, please forgive me if you told us in a video already, but where do you get your hair pieces from? They are the cherry on top of every single one of your costumes and I would love to do something similar.

[@LadyRebeccaFashions]

Thank you! I get my hair pieces almost entirely from local stores, because it's easiest to match color that way.

[@KahoriFutunaka]

@@LadyRebeccaFashions Thanks! No luck for me, then. Your local shops are on my other side of the world 😅

[@LadyRebeccaFashions]

@@KahoriFutunaka maybe you have shops near you though? Pretty much all the ones here are ones that cater to black hair care.

[@KahoriFutunaka]

@@LadyRebeccaFashions We usually have wig shops with human hair for cancer patients or orthodox jews. But I still have to find a shop with hair pieces I can use for historical stuff...

[@saraa3418]

This is a left field comment, but bear with me, lol. The black mock-up with the burgundy skirt put me in the mind of that 00s trend among my goth friends of dressing "Victorian" which really meant black corset tops, long skirts, lace, and ornate crosses with spikes and stuff and now I would love to see some sort of actual Victorian garb that was inspired by mall goths. Or maybe just an Ann Rice vampire cosplay. Feel free to disregard or file away for autumn.

[@Mandy_Savage]

Watching this while working on like 5 UFOs at once haha.

[@lynndragon2536]

Ah yes the dreaded unfinished projects

[@susanspringer8520]

I would love to see a thrift haul!
