Ur constant reminders about adding seam allowances are great I always forget to add to mine then I have to draw on the fabric which is arguably more annoying LOL

[@Jedimanda]

haha, it's so important with this cosplay. SEAM ALLOWANCE

[@ZooCosplay101]

Jedimanda I defts need a video of just u reminding to add seam allowance to play while I’m patterning LMAO

[@CaseyReneeCosplay]

I'm so glad you covered the arm socks and tights, I can't wait to use this to help with my halloween project!

[@Jedimanda]

yay!!

[@laurel.cosplay234]

As a former Joann employee, that clearance section made my jaw drop. So clean and organized!! Most importantly, the dress is stunning!

[@Jedimanda]

haha, thank you!

[@apalehorsenamed_death2849]

I would love to see you make Winifred Sanderson your costumes look so professional I know you'd knock that one out of the park

[@Jedimanda]

Someday! She is on my list!

[@jawjarrose]

Love your take on this! I made mine from thrift shop shirts ☺️

[@Jedimanda]

Oh nice!! I bet that was super neat.

[@abbybrechnerwu]

This is such a great video. I love all the attention to detail ❤️

[@Jedimanda]

I'm so glad!

[@anylareynolds6376]

This is so amazing I love it!!!

[@Jedimanda]

Wonderful!

your mug pushed me over the edge and made me subscribe.

haha, my art mug? Thank you!

Ugh. You’re perfect. 💜💚

[@Jedimanda]

lol, thanks 😅

[@GraceWillow]

Can you tell I'm binging all your videos I missed? hehehehe. Also I love watching you dye all these fabrics...its so theraputic.

[@Jedimanda]

Glad you like them! I can see that!

[@laurenawebb]

I see that Last Jedi fabric 👀

[@Jedimanda]

lolol! YUP

[@WilliamJakespeareProps]

Awesome!

Thank you! Cheers!

Looking fantastic as Sally and nice steps to make the outfit

[@Jedimanda]

Glad you like it

[@thedoctorofstyleirondeadpaul]

@@Jedimanda I do and if they ever make a live action film of it they can hire you to play Sally

[@alisonfarrell70]

😍😍😍 so talented!

thanks!

[@chrishunter8817]

Outstanding job! 🔟🔟🔟⭐⭐⭐⭐♥️👏🏻

[@Jedimanda]

thanks!

[@girlishgamer1]

Love the tutorial Amanda but I think I'll be getting my socks from ksocks shop. They make them with zippers for phone use and eating.

[@Jedimanda]

Nice! That's pretty cool

[@briannabermudez9944]

I wish I could just buy this from you, all the sally costumes from Halloween stores/Amazon are cheesy :/ Great costume!

[@Jedimanda]

Thank you!

[@letshighfive]

I'm very new to sewing so not expecting miracles, but I want to make a Sally dress for Halloween this year and odd-jobing my way through it. Do you think, instead of making a mock up youd also be able to tape the paper pattern together and re-cut (inc seam allowance!) where the different fabrics are?

[@natbonhomme8300]

We’re you add the zipper? I’m thinking about doing it with elastic clothes, but I’m not sure. Beautiful work girl and thanks for sharing with world ❤

[@Jedimanda]

Thanks! I have a big zipper in the center back. Also, you can add one in the side seam as well.

[@daisyvillanueva9853]

I Love you sally

[@Jedimanda]

Thank you!

[@wickedlylovely2710]

I have a question. would it help to use embroidery hoops, to sew the “stitches”? I want to make the sally costume as well. Btw your costume came beautiful!! 💖💖

[@Jedimanda]

Yes, absolutely!

[@wickedlylovely2710]

Thank you! 💖

[@MoonlitAngelCosplay]

What face paint did you use?

[@Seimonster27]

With the video preview pics, it shows sally without an arm. Did you sew your dress to allow extra room to tuck your arm in at the side? Or was it removed with computer editing after the photo was taken? Gives me an idea that it'd be sick to make a faux removable arm for Sally to "fall apart"...

[@Jedimanda]

That's a photoshop job. When I cosplay Sally, I have two arms.

[@aserodriguez1425]

You should do "THE BELDAM" from CORALINE! OR raincoat CORALINE

[@Jedimanda]

maybe.

[@jeanettezubia5024]

Can you please explain notch marks and the importance of them? I've started following your youtube page and instagram and fell in love with this look! can we skip the notch marks or are they needed?

[@Jedimanda]

The importance of notches are match up the correct fabric pieces back up. I would not suggest skipping notch marking because when you cut up the pattern and cut your fabric, it will be tough to match it all back up correctly. But if it makes sense for you to not notch and do a different way, give it a try.

[@jeanettezubia5024]

@@Jedimanda Got it! Thank you for the explanation. This was helpful!

[@allysanchez5630]

Nice

[@Jedimanda]

Thanks

[@allysanchez5630]

@@Jedimanda no problem

[@amyarchuleta5982]

What color of tights did you use?

[@Jedimanda]

the light blue from WeLoveColors

[@RamblyT]

where did you get the wig from

[@Jedimanda]

The wig is from Arda Wigs and the link is in the description of this video.

[@belleebars]

Can someone tell me whats on the paper 😂

[@kyliebritt8711]

Can I buy your paper pattern

[@Jedimanda]

The pattern for this cosplay is listed in the video! It's available in all craft stores.

[@aserodriguez1425]

That is one thick sally 😲.... love your video! Awesome that you make the costume yourself! If you just wore the stuff....uninteresting. But your awesome!

[@Jedimanda]

Thanks but please do not comment about my body. I do not care for it. Thank you
