@@your_local_artist The ultimate power move in a vampire/fey rivalry would be the fairy inviting the vampire over to tea. The vampire has natural dominion over anyone who invites them into their home, the fairy has natural dominion over anyone who violates the laws of hospitality, and neither can refuse the appointment without showing weakness so it'd just be a constant headgame of the vampire trying to manoueuvre the fairy into a position where the obligations of hospitality allow the vampire to eat them, and the fairy trying to trick the vampire into doing something that would allow the fairy to declare them a poor guest. Next paradox: Fairies have power over those who eat fey food. Vampires have power over those they feed on. Even should the vampire succesfully bite the faerie they're still at square one.

As a professional seamstress, I think you did a great job! Fabric glue for the appliques isn't uncommon and given your time crunch, completely reasonable. As for patterns, everyone's body is different and commercial patterns aren't always great about it. I love your vibes-based drafting, it really worked for all the swooping, organic shapes. Personally, I would recommend making paper versions of stuff like the bodice base. Then you have a template for the next one you make. Pattern's biggest strength are that you can quickly make the same garment again and again. I'm glad you had fun making and wearing such a beautiful and ethereal gown!

A tip for the lace appliqués: If it’s polyester (which it usually is), use a heated knife or a wood burning tool to trim around the appliqués. It’s a lot faster and a lot easier than using scissors.
@MissTwisteddd3 ай бұрын
I might try that next time! Thank you! I've tried a variation before that didn't work so well (went really stringy, I wonder if it wasn't hot enough?) so I want to revisit that technique it'll save me so much time!

@MissTwisteddd it depends on the fiber content of the lace, in my experience. Always keep off-cuts for testing out different temperatures before you jump in.

It also has the added benefit of sealing the edges so that you don't have to stitch them to prevent fraying.
@patriciahamel56743 ай бұрын
@willmfrank most of them tend to be on a netting of some sort and don't really fray, but even then, it still provides much neater, more even edges than scissors. If you do have to use scissors, the best kind to use is little embroidery scissors. You can buy a set pretty cheap, and they have much finer, more precise blades, and the sets usually include one curved pair, which is really helpful.

I didn't know a loop turner even existed! I usually just take a thicker knitting needle, and push the closed end of the fabric through the entire thing with the knob on the needle, and when it gets to the opening I can pull it through by hand.

As someone who grew up sewing, I really wish I could just go to every cosplayer that gets into this thinking of "illegal sewing," give them a hug, a cup of hot chocolate (with toppings of choice of course), and tell them there's no such thing and that their best is beautiful! I may not be able to share all of my knowledge with young sewists but watching these videos makes me feel obligated to start. It's all a reminder that no matter how little we had at times, I was fortunate to grow up with am amazing Mom who made life magical in so many ways and continues to inspire me to keep coloring outside the lines. Remember friends, it's not "illegal" because it's a theatre or film method to finish a piece or make-do when you're crunched for time or busy. Just have fun!

I love the hubris in this. Small tips: you corrected yourself from grommet to eyelet, but these ARE grommets. True eyelets are where you sew it like a tiny round button hole. And the awl trick (which is better with a flared or tapered awl) is for if you haven't cut the hole at all.

The awl trick is also commonly used the way she did it, for a tight woven fabric which you can't get to the required diameter by stretching only. It's still way more stable to only cut a few fibers than to cut the whole thing.

I was pointed out at lectures as an example of something not sepia tone. But Victorians didn’t wear brown…the tin types were sepia! Anyway, each year, it got more gothy at steampunk cons.

This was gorgeous, and it was so amazing to watch everythig come together. The level of skill it takes to bring so many different techniques into a cohesive (and frankly stunning) gown is mind-boggling, and watching you do it all in seven days!? I'm subscribing for sure. (Also, i'm sure you know the soldering iron trick for appliques but, just in case: With some fabrics, you can wear a respirator and use a soldering iron to trace an outline around the edges of the beadwork, which will separate them from the fabric without damage and save hours of cissor-cutting time. It...does require being outside or in an incredibly well-ventilated environment though, so perhaps not in such cold weather)

Yes it is a French seam. They last for 20 years or more of regular wear. They are fussy but marvelous. If the pliers are giving you a hard time try a bolt cutter. Alternatively you can cut with the wire cutter half way through and then bend the metal back and forth rapidly till it heats up and then snaps into. I have always used a crochet hook to turn a small strip. That is awesome, unearthly beautiful dress.

The effect of the painting with the lace looks stunning , the ball gown is stunning for being made in 7 days. Your video kept coming up in my KZbin recommend listing for days, now I understand why lol. I use to live in St Kilda and use to work at the Football Club back in the early 80’s yes I know 😹😹😹showing my age a bit now. Loved it there. I now live up in the Queensland Outback, and yes it’s blooming freezing here too, just because I live next to the desert does not mean it’s hot during the day through winter 😹😹😹 even in summer after the boiling hot days it gets down to 5-10°C in the hight of summer at night. Another option is whipper snipper cord. It comes in so many different colours and gauges. I have used it for doing cording in a corset, I used the orange/red coloured cord as it’s nice and round. It’s made of nylon so to help it relax and soften the curls in the cord put in to boiling hot water for couple of hours. This helps to make it easier to handle. Even sewing through it on the sewing machine a few times no broken needles thankfully. The spiral boning is great to use in the bust area as it will curve in two ways and still stay flat where as the plastic boning takes time as you need to let it heat up from your body heat and then it will take on your body shape but this takes time for it to retain the memory of the shape. I buy mine off AliExpress have done for years, the quality is the same as what you can get from Spotlight, it comes in different sizes as well. Dam that huge bag of beads for $5 is a blooming steel, you’re looking at about $50 worth in that one bag alone. For all of the shortcuts the dress is wearable and it’s stunning, that’s all that counts at the end of the day.
