Nobody cares but I’m saying it anyway best way to get a head start on Dragon city is to as soon as you unlock the tree of life and the empower section in the tree of life have two terra dragons breed as many more terra dragons as possible and send them off to get terra orbs and empower one of your breeding terra dragons to 5 stars

[@jellyvampire6196]

have i ever made a corset? no. do i plan to? no. am i still super excited to watch this? absolutely

[@succinyerbollz]

Same

[@ViktorErikFade]

I'm telling myself maybe I will possibly make one before I die for cosplay Therefore it's useful if I just enjoy my time for now

[@purpleexplorer2263]

"So you've got one side with tiny mushrooms, and one side with diet coke tabs" 😂😂 thanks for making sewing seem accessible Sarah, love your videos!

[@Morphwastaken]

I’ve almost finished making my second corset, and a tip for everyone making a corset: I don’t care how pretty the glitter tule or sequin fabric is it is hell to attach onto your fashion layer and sew together but hey it’s pretty! I have a very love hate relationship with sewing if you couldn’t tell. (Also if your wondering what cosplay it’s for it’s for a Lolita themed Alice in wonderland)

[@maladrowoit]

Oh damn. Sounds like a cool cosplay, good luck !! 😯

[@My_Royal_Life]

Sounds cute!

[@winstermagic7886]

hey that cosplay sounds rad

[@ViktorErikFade]

Good luck, I was wondering where the specific example came from

[@lavendermistttttt]

You have single handedly revived my interest in cosplay. I bought my first sewing machine and I'm excited to machine sew a costume (not a corset though) ! Thank you for being an inspiration.

[@ViktorErikFade]

Sooo what do you plan to cosplay? I send you luck for your first project 👀

[@Brocolli_Pizza]

The editing in this is super beginner friendly, and visual. I love the “diy” style of your videos. I really love how you express yourself through your creations. You inspire me in a lot of ways, I hope to continue seeing your videos!

[@swampedrat]

i just got back into cosplay after 6 years of not even touching my sewing machine thanks to your channel. i just wanted to say thanks for being a good inspiration

[@starburi137]

Man you blew my mind with that stitch in the ditch method. I always thought you had to go over the edge of the bias tape and try your hardest to be as close to the edge as possible. 😅 I love the cotton candy vibes it's so cute! Amazing job!

[@PeppermintPumpki]

I just recently found your channel and INSTANTLY fell in love with your content! I nearly cried when you won the cosplay contest, even though I had found this channel only a day prior. Your overall vibe is so welcoming and friendly, and your so flippin talented!!

[@girlmelanie4]

I teared up too and had only been watching for like 2 days!

[@sugarbee00]

the trumpet music you use in the outro fills my heart with actual pure joy?? like it feels so quietly triumphant and i love it sm

[@Jokerkles]

Ok, the crocheted mic cover is a nice touch lol "tiny [metal] mushrooms and...diet coke tabs" roflmao I gotta remember that one. And I thought I was the only one that geeked out about gingham lol and a gored-bust corset usually does flatten out breasts for the most part, as it makes more of a rounded shape for the rib-cage rather than a spherical shape for the breast itself. And now it's off to the interwebs to perform some digital spelunking for more gingham fabric after I see what I have left in my tickle trunk of fabric lol

[@alexadamczyk8962]

I've always wanted to make a similar corset but with this blue and white striped fabric! Can't wait for the video!!

[@carysmacintyre8173]

i can wait to start sewing, i always hated sewing classes at school, (i spent more time rethreading machines and unpicking then actually sewing) but the idea that i could make and wear something anywhere near as beautiful as your dresses has me inspired. Since I have my A level exams i don't want to start any kind of big project now but when i have the free time i love to draw up fun ideas of things i could try to make. Thanks for changing my mind :)

[@tiramusoo]

Minji!!! Its very nice seeing creators you like get inspired by each other! Thank you sm for another amazing overexplained tutorial

[@Xxeeena]

Can't wait to see the full cosplay done! The corset looks really nice by itself

[@Hinatsu23]

That video makes me wanna tackle corsetery so bad !! Can’t wait to actually attempt to do one once I have the time, meanwhile I’ll stick to watching your videos and getting inspiration and motivation from them hehe !! (Also the fabric combo and the lace touch in the end ?? So cute it’s to die for, your combination is definitely on point of cuteness awww)

[@Evee.k]

your videos are so good! i want to start sewing and my goal is the snow princess miku cosplay. i literally watched your tutorials thousands of times and honestly, i never get tired of watching them. keep it up!!

[@catboypride]

hi shizuku twin 😋

[@Evee.k]

@@catboypride helloooo

[@zoey398]

me but belle's red dress from belle it doesn't seem seriously complicated, i think it's just the bodice really and how to create channels for the floating flowers 💀 not to mention her wig is so effing long 😭😭

[@Evee.k]

@@zoey398 I wasnt familiar with the movie so i looked it up and the dress is absolutely stunning. I wish you the best of luck for making it!

[@zoey398]

@@Evee.k thank you so much! i'm going to try when i have enough money and space but at the moment it just isn't possible. good luck to you on yours as well!

[@makmakesstuff]

I am LIVING for the recognition of gingham as an elite fabric pattern 😍😍😍

[@swingularity1119]

I totally recommend Laughing Moon's Silverado corset pattern. It has bust gussets and the instructions are really good so installing the gussets are a cinch. :)

[@justabooberv4298]

You just reminded me that dragon city exists, i remember playing it about 5 years ago on Facebook and it gave me so many good memories with me and my siblings fighting to see who would be the one playing dragon city on the computer

[@AnnChovies]

Corset making has always felt like something I could never do, but you made it way less daunting. These videos are super helpful

[@angiehartman71]

"It's seam ripping time!" Lol, such a mood! Been there so many times 😄

[@BAKAROID]

I find corsets super intimidating so I can't wait to watch this !!! 👀

[@_eto_luna_]

I appreciate your way of describing the busk closure ends 😂

[@vir2ualvisage]

Your videos are so unbelievably helpful! (And entertaining)

[@neontenebrae1918]

this video should be nominated for the best title of the month award

[@RebakaChan]

Seems like you’re about to hit 100k, so let me give you a preemptive congratulations!

[@mizuiro_sora7927]

Hi Sarah, i love your videos! I'm personally more of a prop maker when it comes to cosplay and don't understand a thing about sewing (so far I asked my grandma whenever I planned a cosplay that's more niche). Naturally, I may understand half of the things you're explaining (at most) in your videos (but that's due to my lack of basic knowledge and not your way of explaining). However, your videos give me motivation to start looking into sewing as my next improvement step! Thank you for that! Also, you're videos are so soothing to watch and listen to that sometimes i just put on a random video just because it motivates me while working on my props. :D So thank you for all the great, fun and educational videos your do!

[@bloodmarrow]

this is absolutely amazing! I'm actually sewing a corset right now so its really encouraging to see you make one as well!

[@yepdep48]

Super excited for the video! Just started sewing because you gave me inspiration to do so. Im gonna make my first cosplay soon and maybe ill try to make this corset ! ❤

[@makunouchiippo2542]

im a big ass man near 100 kg and 1.75 and i see your videos like a admiring a idol

[@TroubledFerretzz]

THANK YOU I have a sewing machine getting ordered in a few days and now I know what my first big project will be XD

[@anathemarae8789]

ahahaha when I saw the thumbnail I thought you might have muffed up the busk so I'm very happy for you that it's just the binding being funky. This was super cute and I love the gingham mix

[@lovepuppy2242]

Thanks for this, I’ve been burnt out cuz of a new job and exams (one year till I graduate!!) and sewing has been a chore. My machine hasn’t even been plugged in in weeks. I have a pair of trousers I’m making for my sibling, it’s got a ton of pockets!

[@ayayalgueewe9361]

I'm already so excited 🤩🤩 Your explanations are soo clear it's such a joy to watch your videos!!

[@Pjsk_Player_Yuki]

Can't wait to watch you make the dress. It always makes me so happy to see you make these cosplays! I live for it, lol. The design is super cute too! Maybe if I find the energy to learn how to sew ill make cosplay as well! You truly are amazing!

[@Wut947]

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE WATCHING YOUR CHANNEL!! I’ve always wanted to cosplay, and about 1 year ago I started watching you; I think 1 year- but I’ve always loved just watching cosplayers like you! I’ve dreamed of cosplaying for ages, and I’m finally starting this year! I’ve been inspired by you and I’m so happy you ever came onto my recommended:)

[@NocandNC]

I have a Pfaff too =D watching your videos is so motivating. I've been gathering up the materials needed for my Anime North cosplay this May - surely this time I won't leave the hard parts to the last minute, haha...!

[@topazdrake42]

oh man, Anime North is one of the biggest cons near me and if I could I would go, but it's also three-four hours away from me and idk anyone who would go with me

[@gabbiecabrera261]

I can't believe I got excited in watching you start a new project. I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL SO MUCH

[@Coupella]

This gingham is super cute! Spoiler alert 🚨 the fit is 🔥 🔥 🔥 I completely endorse the tiny bit of cutting to push the “mushrooms” !The fact that it’s interfaced is going to hinder any fraying. In the future, if you wanted to, you could also sew eyelets by machine and then use a tiny hole punch.

[@AlisonBirbz]

Can I just say, that I think it’s hilarious you used the creator library song “bunny hop” during the lacing of the corset and “bunny ears” 😂 it made me chuckle 😂😂

[@SarahSpaceman]

PFFFFT Im Glad somebody knew, I thought that would only be a thing i got to giggle at

[@AlisonBirbz]

@@SarahSpaceman Ahah! And now we have bonded 😂 idk if I should be proud or slightly embarrassed it’s one of my go to songs from the library 😂

[@irishais]

lmao that is the best busk installation explanation i have ever seen. bless you for being a part of the Chaotic Gremlin Sewing Squad ❤️ also a small zigzag on the edges of external boning channels is absolutely my hack for extra visual interest and not having to worry about the stitching being perfectly straight every time

[@PestLover]

HAPPY 100K!!!!

[@snapppedinhalf6891]

CONGRATS ON MOVING!

[@indiabilly]

I love how you explained all this, every video you make i learn more than watching 50 other videos on other channels, I feel like I could actually do this- thank you so much xx

[@gloomy_pizza]

I absolutely love your videos, you inspired me to begin cosplay and to pick up sewing again.

[@imjustdandy9799]

Ive made one pair of stays and one waist corset and now im kind off addicted. Also I have a corset tip! If you dont add a busk you can make your corset Double Sided! Its two corsets for the time/work/price of one!

[@mtgret]

Im LITERALLY making a corset right now!! im using your other video as a bible for all of it! its been so so helpful in my first corset

[@johannfunn6962]

Excited for this new project! It looks so complicated (also thank you for the subtitles, really appreciate it)

[@7kyanitestars971]

can't wait to see the new sewing spot when you move! I hope you got more space for your amazing work❤

[@ratking927]

So excited for a new arc

[@hepcatliz]

good luck on the move! 👍❤️

[@annacarl3314]

I love the care and detail you put into these videos, I love watching them and am excited anytime I see a new one uploaded (and rewatch your other ones in the meantime!) re: Minji Lee's video reference, while I understand the hesitancy to pronounce people's names wrong, I do also want to encourage you to try (as I believe it's a basic form of respect for those around you). It would also be a wonderful way to support your fellow costubers to include a link to her channel in your description too!

[@SarahSpaceman]

Totally right about the respect with pronunciation! She'd changed her channel name recently and I couldnt remember exactly what she'd changed it to

[@annacarl3314]

I see!! thanks for taking the time to reply/clarify q

[@becauseimafan]

9:13 aha! You said "like button" here and the like button lit up! It doesn't only happen during an end of video call-to-action! Yo, technology is cRaZy 🤪 Also enjoying the corset playlist rn 😁 19:09 it did it again! There was a moment mid-video that it didn't do it, but it did at the end. Didn't happen with the subscribe button though. This was cool! Onto the next in your playlist 😁

[@KiaraDex]

Such a cute corset!

[@gacha__mylive2025]

FINALLY WE HAVE CONTENT FROM THE NEW COSPLAY

[@hakudoushinumbernine]

Yeah, i use safety glasses when i sew. I dont need my glasses for close seeing and it makes my eyes hurt after a while, so when i sew i dont have anything protecting my eyes. I got SUPER lucky when a needle broke and got caught on the thread. The second time, it went flying across the room. And then in saw that one of the other online sewists said something about safety glasses, and i was like...😲 why didnt I think of that?! So i use safety glasses when i sew. And they proved their worthy because the third time i broke a needle, it bounced off the lens of my safety glasses. So, yeah 😅 safety glasses when sewing. Highly recommend

[@frogs5873]

I LOVE YOUR CONTENT THANK YOU FOR HELPING ME FIND THE CONFIDENCE TO COSPLAY

[@maskedfoxx7173]

You videos inspire me so much. They make me want to sew but they also make me want to make cosplay videos of my own even though I've never made craft videos before so thank you so much for these ❤❤❤

[@maakkaas]

OMG thank you so much! for my next cosplay i need to make a corset and ive been really nervous about it, so this video came out at the perfect time!

[@elenap15227]

I really want to try this! I love the idea of flatlining and how it doesn't look wrinkly. I was really surprised by you mentioning the gusset was too small. It looked so large before! I'm probably going to mess that part up a couple of times.

[@elles_corner]

cg on hitting 100k!

[@animehuntress9018]

You would probably have a meltdown with my measurements, lol! I'm very VERY busty so yeah, corsets are a pain to find as well as make, lol. I do appreciate some of the tips I learned and it will help as I slowly progress into making my own. My friend made a few for me and I crocheted lace for her, but I moved and this was before Facebook and my space so we've lost touch. My body has changed and they no longer work as well as they used to, so store bought has been a thing, but it just does not compare to handmade!

[@vampirebl4des]

im gunna make my first corset soon and this is exactly what i needed !!

[@CaraOMara]

Aww I remember playing dragon city all the time when I was 9! 🥰

[@gtjoe146]

Can't wait to make my first corset !

[@Stells._stars]

I love your videos so much! Your videos give me so much inspiration to cosplay and craft. I'm a 13 year old cosplayer and have been to 2 conventions and I'm going to one in June but I've been using you videos to help me style the wig and outfit! I love you and your so cool!

[@elizabethmarie7281]

I also love gingham. So pretty.

[@bibizehngraff7139]

cannot wait to watch this video! I am making a corset for a cosplay, so this will be so SO helpful

[@stefanied3219]

Slowly, but surely, I will eventually be confident enough to make one for fun.... one day.... thanks to you ❤

[@grumpyalison4869]

you can also use pens to violently stab holes into fabric and separate the threads. it took me like 2-3 hours of stabbing, but i got the pen through 1 layer of cotton, 1 (or 2?) layers of interfacing and another layer of some kind of mystery drapery fabric for 20 4mm grommets on a potato vest. ngl though, i wish i had a whole punch the whole stupid time.

[@ioanamogos4196]

Pink gingham is the best. I just bought some myself for a dress.

[@Alithea_cosplay]

I just finished my first corset - a full boned monstrosity and ouu boy...I understand your feelings in this video :D

[@TheGabygael]

Before I had an awl I used knitting needles, started with a 2mm (careful not to bend it, I bent mine all the time) then I would go up, generally at 3.5 mm for hand sewn eyelets

[@TroubledFerretzz]

I have hypermobility in my joints and my ribs love to go places they shouldnt. I am going to make a corset similar to this one and see if it helps keep my ribs where they are supposed to stay

[@oswaldears]

Thank you for giving me the inspiration I need to go finish the corset I’m working on so I can start on the actual costume 😂😅

[@mattybrunolucaszeneresalas9072]

0:47 Sarah: “I don’t want to say her name wrong” Me: did you ….faiI the alphabet ?

She changed her channel name recently and I couldn't remember what it was now when I was shooting, but also Yes I failed the alphabet, im very bad with spelling and pronunciation.

I've only been sewing for a year, it's too soon to try a corset. I've only been seeing for a year, it's too soon to try a corset. I've only been sewing for a year, it's too soon to try a corset. It's too soon. It's too soon. It's too... DAMMIT SELF WHY AM I LIKE THIS

[@karenshort3880]

It is beautiful

[@sophie265]

Love the video!!! The corset was super-cute! But I just wanna mention that Truly Victorian was called out for making some bad pro-cultural appropriation-comments, and Enchanted Rose Costumes is an anti-vaxxer and antisemite (she compared covid-vaccine-requirements to the Holocaust). Just wanted to give you a heads up for future reference

[@Comfiicutie]

thank you for reminding me to correct my posture during the video. this is a great video though!

[@minty_starr761]

Aww it’s my birthday today so happy I’ll get to see another video of yours they always inspire me 💗 I’m currently working on the strawberry x Miku with your tutorials!! Melanie Martinez, someone I really look up to and have been listening to for years also just released a new song today on my birthday?? Very coincidental 🤣

[@Ashy__Art]

I ❤ your content

[@jayfeather07]

"one side has little mushrooms and the other has diet coke tabs" killed me. also a little surprised you put the mushrooms in first, as all the videos i've watched have done the diet coke tabs first and then used the holes in the diet coke tabs to mark where to put the mushrooms

[@mabelabletable]

I’m not making a corset per say but it’s like a thing that goes over a coat that is meant yo mimic a corset belt (it’s for Valkyrie Mika Kagehira ((just Mika and Shu Valkyrie not Nazuna Shu and Mika Valkyrie))

[@bunhelsingslegacy3549]

No! Not till we've got a corset pattern that doesn't pinch ribs! I think I can actually fix the one I've got already with the seam allowance but it means taking the binding off, so it's contemplating its misdeeds in the UFO box... ...mine kinda does lay flat except boob cups cause I'm shaped like a brick LOL

[@simbolic]

AAAA I love how it turned out!!! Geniuenly curious thom how would you fix the misallignment?

[@SarahSpaceman]

Short answer is undo the binding cut the top down a bit, redo the binding

[@winstermagic7886]

when the music gets interesting thats when you know shits about to go down

[@morbidcuriosity969]

I would really love it if you made a video on build books specifically

[@redpeterpanda]

My mum would use an ice pick when she needed an awl because she rarely needs one and says they are close enough

[@angelsinthewindow]

I have a bit of a idea concept for you for one of your videos. I'm bringing it up to you because I think you could do a very good explanation on a lot of the hacks that are in this video that I found from 5-minute Crafts PLAY. I know a lot of the stuff they have on here probably would never ever work, but one or two of the hacks look like they may have some sort of interest for sewing in the cosplay community. I don't know, I thought you would have the knowledge to tell if any of these tips ACTUALLY were worth anything. The video is called "Great Sewing Tips And Tricks That Work Extremely Efficiently" (Spoiler, I know for a fact at least half are not) its the other half that I am unsure of if they are actually decent. I love your content and am actually using some of your corset making videos for trying to figure out making my own bodice since your Corset videos help with figuring out how to get the fit down. I hope my idea gives you a very quick vid whenever you need it.

[@CaseyReneeCosplay]

You're making me want to make a gingham corset.

[@griegagore684]

I highly recommend the patterns from aranea black. Sadly she took down all her content at the beginning of the year and you can definetly not find her amazing free patterns which you can adjust in size and come in very different styles on reddit. Nope. Nothing to be found there. Such a shame. Great video though!

[@elisacoffey5140]

You had me at "tiny mushrooms." Then you said, "diet coke tabs." And I died. (Edited fr correction.)
