I'm not someone who has an out of the mainstream style of dress but my husband certainly does. He grew up as a working cowboy on a cattle ranch in Utah so he wore Western clothes everyday because that's what was practical. When we bought a good suit for our wedding, we went with a Western cut suit. But...he also likes to embrace his Scottish heritage and wear, you guessed it, kilts! Apparently there can be ridiculous gatekeeping with that too. But he's a cowboy in a kilt...and he just doesn't care what anyone else thinks. And I'm glad of it because he can really rock that tartan!

You could even do a Q&A voiceover or something id you're worried about it being "too boring" otherwise?? Though organisation videos makes my little virgo heart happy regardless haha

Personal, has a mom and a "crafter", I am ALWAYS looking for organization ideas. However if you are looking for something to fill in some of the air space. I can't remember for certain, but I feel like it's been a while since you've done a Q and A, if you're up for it, maybe you could do a voice over answering questions while we watch you organize?

I'm always amazed at how patient and detail oriented you are. It really shows in all of your garments that you have a ton of knowledge, patience and discipline. It's a joy to watch you work and even though we have quite different tastes I always love seeing what you make. Also I really appreciate how much you explain what you're doing, it really helps me follow along and it's so interesting to hear the reasons why you're doing certain things as a beginner seamstress. I'd love a calm bead organizing video! Maybe with a voice over talking about how you organize your sewing supplies in general or how you got into sewing and what your goals are etc. would be nice :)

Absolutely gorgeous dress! I also love the colour and the fact that it has unicorns makes it even better. Also I would totally watch a sequin sorting video! I also agree that having a label like cottage core or historocal inspired can limit someones creativity. Maybe it's me but over the last video's I noticed you've been choosing more vibrant, less "period appropriate" fabrics (hello hot pink robe a la Française). I really love that! Edit: spelling

I trick I was taught by my aunt years ago for threading elastic with a safety pin: if you turn it around with the “latch” towards yourself and the “hinge” pointing away, it’s much less likely for the pin to open, since your hand is holding it closed. And if it does pop open, the point isn’t going into the fabric, so you can close it just fine!

The thing about lolita fashion gatekeeping most often comes down to people new into fashion often buy cheap "replicas" of Japanese brand pieces, and support art-theft which is (for good reasons) looked down upon. In the past handmade things and indie brands were viewed as less-than, but nowadays the attitudes have definitely shifted and good materials and construction get loads of praise 😊

At Joanns I got a metal bodkin with a tiny metal knob at the tip and I thread the elastic through the hole in the bottom and stitch it down in a loop. Love my bodkin it gently goes through anything. Also have two plastic bodkins with soft plastic points that work very well. They might be better for fabric like this because they are more flexiable.

I love this fabric! It's nice to see a "serious" and "adult" unicorn fabric! About the velvet: you don't say how you pressed it, but I always iron it face down on top of a bath towel or piece of scrap velvet or a professional needle board. If I'm using a hot iron, I make sure I have lots of steam so I hopefully won't melt the fabric. I'm very happy that you are pleased with the appearance of your velvet, but you might need these tips next time. I love the way your dress came out; it's so cute!

Yay. I know I’m “supposed” to use brown pattern paper developing new patterns … but i’ve never found that it works with my creative process. I am 100% on team tracing paper. So happy to see it being important part of the process for this dress. :) If the off chance that anyone is curious as to why, one big reason is that I’ve never been a huge fan of slashing techniques, as in SBA/FBA, adding gathers and the like. Instead, maybe because I’m weird or something, I prefer to do a lot of those things either mathematically or by repositioning previous generations of the same design underneath the current tracing. Among other things, this message maintains good fluidity and makes truing up the edges and darts extra simple and generally a pretty minor part of the whole process. I know my instructors would shriek in horror at hearing this, but many times it’s not even necessary to remove, and then re-add the seam allowances. Sshh - don’t tell.

I'm right with you. I learned how to slide and pivot from the Sew/Fit method back in the 80s and it's great. Using paper I can see through is vital to this process so I've never used brown or white paper, even though it's cheaper.

I think too many people get trapped in the idea of doing things the "proper" way. But think of it this way: if no one deviated from what's proper, there would be no innovation! Do what works for you, take bits of inspiration from wherever you find it, and don't worry too much about what your instructors would say. 😁💜

Just popping in to say locate a vintage bodkin. All rounded edges and seriously the best little tool made. I found one at a antique shop and it my "new" favorite. Nothing comes undone like the sliding clip things. Metal and does not bend or warp. No points or anything to get caught or snag. Very much worth finding and getting. Will last forever too.

The print and the cut of the dress really remind me of an old animated movie called The Last Unicorn I used to watch on repeat as a kid (to the point I broke the cassette and we had to transfer it to a DVD). I loved the movie BECAUSE it wasn't about cutesy unicorns, it instead had dark elements that weren't hidden to "protect the kids." I could totally see young Molly in this dress, waiting for days to see a unicorn as a young maiden.

I really loved your spech. Luckily for me i am naturally greedy and curious so i always loved multiple styles and wore them all depending on my mood. I would always think “how do people stick to one style like that?” I would see women with their whole homes/closets designed around one thing. There isnt anything wrong with that if you like it but I could never do it and never even tried, lol. I have too many facets that I want to express and shamelessly display them as I see fit. All it does is show your creativity, I think. Its a good thing.

I genuinely love the dress on you .. the "leather" look waistband, the trim .. everything. It's flattering too. Hmm .. the zipper .. bummer. OK, so I don't know if this is allowed in the vintage world but, personally, I really like invisible zips. They disappear into the design, look less chunky, and are much EASIER to install. You do not need the special foot to install. When you unpick the old zip, I think that strips of very light weight fusible interfacing would stabilize the fabric edges and any holes from working with the fragility of the fabric.

The dress is super cute!!! I had a similar problem once with a very thin fabric and a zipper that ruined the whole thing 😪. In the end I had to completely remove it and turn it into a skirt with an elastic waist band instead. I used that skirt for years, until it literaly fell apart...so if everything else fails you could maybe try that. The fabric is absolutely wonderful, so best of luck with salvaging this project.

This is such a fun dress! And very much the intersection of girly, vintage and whimsical that you capture so well. I'd love to see a bead organising video! I love organising and re-organising even my own button stash so it would be fun. But if you wanted to add a 'concept' to a voiceover, maybe you could do a video telling a story you really enjoy over the top- perhaps from a vintage book you life that is in the public domain (pride and prejudice etc) or a the life of a historical figure you find interesting? either for their life or as style inspiration. There are so many little known stories of historical fashion icons, and especially women - that it could be cool to share them- if you know any. (can also justify a wikipedia/research rabbit hole too if you wanted?)

I love how many sewers on youtube are just casually mentioning that body shape and sizes are going to change over the years, so you can't just assume that a measurement you took a year ago is the same measurement today. A lot of people grow up thinking that once you get to a certain age that this is the body you're supposed to have till you suddenly get old and bent over in the last couple of years of life. Fortunately we'll always be changing and thus always getting to try new styles of clothing as time marches on. I'm excited to be able to dress like a Golden Girl!

YES to everything you said about aesthetics! I personally do like cottagecore and dark academia just as inspiration, but it makes me sad to think that there are still people who think that you have to 'conform' to the aesthetic like no! It's about finding things you like! I watched some videos about Lolita fashion a few years ago because I liked the look of it and the amount of rules just made me absolutely sick (the amount of drama as well btw). So glad I found the historical costuming side of KZbin instead!

I agree about your rant. I prefer to be all chaotic about what I wear and not label it, so I can wear what I want, but even if I don't label myself I have noticed other people do it and being aware of what people expect to see me in limits my style a bit. Also, I started to think through this video that you really seem to have a good grip of when to be precise when sewing and when you can just do things fast and I feel like that knowledge is something I need in my life. Finding the right pace in sewing and what is worth setting extra time on, I think is the next thing I need to learn in sewing and I don't see people talk about a lot.

The dress is gorgeous, but the way, I'm certain my 7 year old daughter will lose her mind over it! Edit: oh and yes to the bead organising!

I love the colors! I especially like the serious unicorns, they are so hard to find. I may have just been sent down a rabbit hole with those colors . . . I have some fabric like the darker one, but don't I have any that vibrant of hot pink --oh, and then what shall I make? the possibilities - - - - - But first, I need to match the pink. Yes, wear what you want, mix it up!

Your complexion looks so soft and flawless. Your hair color looks good next to your skin. Unnatural hairs colors can go wrong with skin tone and look like crap. The fabric is very cute. Thank you for another video. Appreciate all you create.

This isn't so much cottagecore, this dress absolutely radiates gypsy vibes, like Esmeralda from the Hunchback of Notre Dame.

It might be the type of hat influencing me, but this gives me such witch hat atelier vibes, but also its own vibes and ah it's just so so so perfect, especially how you styled it for the photoshoot, so dreamy feeling !! 🥺😍💕

For the bead video i’d love to hear your wildest dreams and wishes for all those beads. What are you imagining them onto? And where will they realistically end up on? You make loads of creative decisions and I love hearing your thought process. I don’t ever use beads and/or sequins so I can’t imagine them on anything if that makes sense? The value of the video for me would increase a lot knowing what you are imagining for these beads! Lots of love to you and all the beautiful things you make (and of course the doggos)

If you overlap your elastic, before you sew it, it will lay flat and not stick up. This is also handy when sewing clothes for kids with elastic waist if you think they may gain weight later (or pass down to a younger child of a different size) because you can overlap an inch or more, and then just rip open the waist band, and then either let out the elastic or sew it tighter to adjust the waist.

Kids clothes often have elastic with a buttonhole in the middle of the elastic every inch, or so, so that the waistband can be easily adjusted, I'm not sure if that type of elastic is easily available in fabric stores, but it is very useful, especially if the child's waist measurement fluctuates.

I am late catching up with this. The dress fabric is sooo pretty. I really love the final result. You have probably moved on from this, but if you're still not happy with the dress as a wearable garment, could you remove the bodice and convert it into a pretty flowy skirt? Also, would strips of interfacing where you placed the zipper help stabilize the fabric and make installing it easier? Or would that have interfered with the flowiness of the back bodice?

Zippers are evil, sorry they seemed to give you so much trouble. The dress is super cute and I adore it immensely! Also yes the "princess" hat you see at ren faires for kids is called a hennin, I worked a ren faire years ago as the handmaiden to the kings youngest daughter and she had to wear a hennin, I lucked out and wore something more like a fabric kokoshnik with a veil and my hair braided up.
