DIY 🌧️CLEAR RAINCOAT🌧️ | WITHWENDY

[@steffywhoelse]

I don’t know how to sew. I don’t even have a sewing machine. I’m not even attempting to learn. But I love your videos, girl!

[@withwendy]

Aw thank you Stefany!! I love you!

[@25narmadha]

withwendy so technically you wear the raincoat above the winter jacket or warm jacket?

[@letitiakiu]

That yellow dress is PERFECT BTW

[@withwendy]

Thank you my dearrrrr :)

[@sierra8386]

Apparently using scotch tape helps the material not get stuck on your machine, Annika Victoria has a clear circle skirt tutorial where she has some tips with using this material. I love how this turned out!!

[@withwendy]

Amen to Annika's tip! When I tested my material I was relieved it all went under the foot smoothly, it was the passing of material through the arm of the machine that got a little tight sometimes. But if anyone's feet has trouble gripping the material, scotch tape!

[@therenaissancetv6854]

Thank you

[@daytonwaiariki-wilson889]

Oh my gosh, this was so cool!!!! Probably never going to make something with clear plastic but it was worth a watch.

[@withwendy]

Thank you!!

[@withwendy]

Took a little time to chitchat with you at the end of this tutorial 😙sending love to you all!

[@miadnamttoc7834]

withwendy hi I was wondering do they make the material in different colors.

[@GaliadelaRosa]

There's very little chance of me using a raincoat living in the middle of the dessert but daaaaamn this is so pretty and I totally want to try it! I always wanted something like this from watching anime as a kid Wendy. That detail with the bias tape get it to a whole new level. I'm prepared for the vinyl battle my dear Wendy!

[@withwendy]

The bias tape makes trim so much easier than doing your own trim!! I love the flexibility of it :)

[@nocoffeenoworkiee]

i want make one of this. here rains rarely.. but this rain coat is kawaii..

[@nicoleesola8023]

You could get a shower liner from the dollar store & use it as your fabric! Love this tutorial

[@withwendy]

This is true! And then take a shower in it to test if it's waterproof? Hahah :)

[@tornfeather1]

Please be careful when buying shower liners for clothes. Not all plastics are made the same and many shower liners leach out toxic gases (new liner smell) and weren't constructed or sold with the intention of significant prolonged contact with human skin. Otherwise have fun and I think it's a fabulous idea

[@bellrose2659]

tornfeather1 what would I look out for if I was going to buy a shower curtain

[@TheWaldocrazy]

@@bellrose2659 it's not that serious if you're going to wear it 1-2 times a week for 3-4 hours. Plus it's not going to be directly on your skin unless you wanna go out nude

[@Squatchygal]

Super idea! And cheap!

[@samanthareeves8439]

I loved this tutorial! Plastic vinyl is incredibly hard to work with, I made a gown with it once and after that experience I'll probably never use it again lol. It's so cool how it's completely waterproof though! I actually filled the skirt with water and it turned out really interesting

[@pepperkakehus3]

i love having your videos on when I'm sewing, specifically cutting out patterns. gives me a sense of company thats sewing related

[@studygirl5264]

the peaceful cuisine style was really beautiful!! but since sewing is so detailed that it just really helps to thinking through what is going on with your fabric if you both see it and hear about how it's supposed to look

[@mnbz2031]

Love the softness of the audio and the chill vibe you give off, super refreshing

[@letitiakiu]

I've always been worried about DIY-ing PVC but this is inspiring!

[@a.d.6145]

the yellow dress is just perfect! and it goes so well with the raincoat :) perfect for summer rains, when you want to stay dry but don't want to hide your beautiful dress :)

[@kirstendickie1452]

I love your videos with voiceovers but also loved your last video because it was so calming. Whatever sort of videos you do are always so well made and I'd love to continue watching a variety of videos from you whether it is in your typical format or trying something new.

[@withwendy]

Wow thank you so much Kirsty that is so kind and encouraging. You're the sweetest!!

[@skoolisdumfood]

I would LOVE to make this! I think I would add some pockets for my phone and wallet since I don't carry a purse. But the bias tape is such a cute touch to add whatever color you want. I might make mine yellow in honor of classic raincoats. :)

[@wildlyrebird]

I thought your previous video was super cool for a change, but I do really like the voiceovers. I think your voice is super soothing and makes me motivated to sew! I always get excited when I see that you’ve uploaded a new video. Thank you for making the effort to make videos for us all to watch! 😄

[@nadinesilversparrow996]

I love this! Oh the possibilities of colors you could use 🌈💧🌧

[@withwendy]

Yess! I was tempted to keep looking for a tinted pvc even - there's lots of possibilities!

[@kiragimpel8171]

pro tip for sewing vinyl; some baby/talcum powder sprinkled on your machine avoids the awkward sticky vinyl happening. 💃🏻

[@anjelicagames]

I made a clear raincoat about two years ago for a photo shoot. it was sooooo much work but a lot of fun in the end. the vinyl i used was a little too thick to be every day wearable

[@user-is3wu4xo6k]

This video came just in time for me to do my avant- garde project thank you Wendy ! You are the best love your videos !!

[@ahoyjasmin3282]

Yasssss wendyyyyyy...do a clear backpack please!

[@spiceywolfey]

I loved the last video, but I can't lie, the thing that brought me to subscribe to your channel was your calming voice! :D

[@Leo-fw7jo]

Hi, I like your raincoat project. I might try one for me. I have a few questions please 1- what is your sewing machine brand? ( I will buy one :)) 2- What gauge vinyl did you use? 3- Could you share your pattern for raincoat in pdf ? or sketch with measurements. thanks

[@PinkReBunny]

Yay! I enjoy your voiceover tutorials and understand them better :) cute raincoat! Definitely going to be useful! It’s pouring in California right now!

[@withwendy]

Ooh stay dry Rebecca! I had no idea it was raining so much in Cali right now :O

[@Wildheartforfreedom]

This is perfect! I was planning to make a clear vest to replicate Harley Quinn’s confetti sleeve jacket!

[@josetomasyanezpino7212]

Wendy, once again u killed it! i'm studying fashion design and ur tutorials help me soooooo much! thanks 4 ur videos and help! 💓✨

[@mirandamarais6149]

How cool, I wished last week you would make this and here we are, wonderful!!!!

[@euzamora74]

hi! that rain coat its beautiful, i always dream about one like that since i watch blade runner (like 15 years ago) and now i can do it!!!! greetings from México

[@BecomingBoundless]

Wow, that raincoat has a very Blade Runner feel. Looks great!

[@igamalakhongu]

I love how creative you are!! The yellow dress is great!! Please make the twist kimono dress, been seeing it a lot lately, especially in the gingham print.it would be great to see you make the pattern.

[@thegrinch0614]

The yellow dress looks so pretty on you!!! Thanks for this great tutorial!

[@sarahbishop422]

This looks great, can't wait to have a go! for ventilation you could always apply eyelets, if you have the tools required.

[@jubansunabi6089]

I was just thinking of making one...omg omg...this is such a coincidence! Thank you so much Wendy ❤

[@rebeccaly]

Hey Wendy, I have a PVC rain jacket but it keeps getting foggy-looking and I don’t know how to keep it clean and clear. Please help?

[@like2sew181]

You have some clever tips. As I was watching the tutorial, I was saying "You go ahead girl!" I loved it!

[@withwendy]

Glad I was able to share something of use! Thanks woman!

[@valerieb.4912]

Hi Wendy, I really enjoy watching your creativity. You are so talented. I do have one suggestion: let the newbies know what type of thread and needles. Keep up the great sewing adventures! Happy Palm Sunday..

[@yi-jensun6391]

the yellow dress is so gorgeous!!

[@Lilac3_]

Your hair always looks so cute, Wendy !

[@mackw.7916]

I’m really digging that brownish nail polish! Also great tutorial!!

[@idkyetdou]

This is so good!! I have recently decided to remake a childhood raincoat, I will have to use this tutorial to help me out with working with vinyl! :D

[@Megde1988]

I feel like the quantity of the videos has slowed but the CONTENT! Wow! The content has become so interesting and beautiful and the quality of the videos (and new merch) have only gotten better

[@withwendy]

Wow thank you so much, it’s true I had a hard time getting videos done in February, but I’m so glad you appreciate what I’m uploading now :)

[@Aggressive_Progressive]

Pro tip: if you're sewing vinyl to vinyl, use tissue paper to keep it from sticking to things like your machine, and the needle. You can easily tear it off, or scrub if of later.

[@corinne123100]

I looooove this! Your voice is so relaxing too :)

[@withwendy]

Thank you! So glad to be back with the voiceover hahaha :)

[@takaraonea]

This tutorial is BOMB! 😍

[@tiaradeleon]

omg looks soooo good and stylish, will definitely attemp to create this soon.... thank you , I love your videos and ideas

[@gailagilliland3268]

Wow! Wendy, you really nailed it with this project! I so but I am not going to attempt this. Thank you for sharing! 💙❤️💚

[@LatexLover-pr8gp]

Great job Wendy! PVC is a hard material to work with. Would it be possible to reduce the number of seams and do a Mark 2 version. You are lovely by the way.

[@tshenolomatlala9045]

I love how the Mac Raincoats of the 60s are making a comeback 🙂

[@antof.634]

I think a clear poncho would work better with mobility and ventilation, and also it would look cool af

[@teddy_hoesevelt]

So qt! Would probably use grommets for the vents tho

[@tina7151]

Oh my gosh I love peaceful cuisine

[@Anna-ij3je]

Hi Wendy can you do a video on how to make patterns. For some reason I get so confused with how to make the patterns for front and back and overall how to fit the parts. What paper do you use?

[@cnr0118]

Wendy!! PLEASEE make a video on how to make a faux leather saddle bag purse!! I really want to make a simple faux leather purse (with that saddle bag shape) but I just don't know where to start and there's no good tutorials for it 😭 you explain everything soo well so I would love it if you did it!! Also love you and your videos!! 💖💕

[@jolynnwhite7946]

Very fascinating construction, creative edge I think it would make a excellent pattern to produce

[@jaysonpadilla9063]

This coat is so complicated. Also, the humidity gonna have you SWEATIN’ in the coat. Out here TRANSPIRING in that coat.

[@holyhands8528]

Crazy mesh fabric last time and now PVC, mh mh mh we are so lucky! love this video 👍🏽

[@withwendy]

LOL I'm deep in the world of weird fabric not sure when I'll get out of it!

[@glory2yeshua309]

Can you use a shower curtain for the material?

[@marisahueso7149]

This is such a neat idea! I'm gonna have to put it on my sewing ideas list. I loved the previous video's vibe, it was really soothing 💙

[@ejgutierrez7822]

No wonder it was so familiar, I love Peaceful Cuisine. I can't cook for the life of me but I love his videos 😍😍😍 Also loved this video 💖💖💖

[@0ona]

I think there are special sewing machine feet for plastic and leather and other clingy materials. a clear bag sound amazing!

[@withwendy]

I think so too, I believe Annika shared a tip of using scotch tape on the bottom of the foot. My foot didn’t cause any problems it was actually just fitting the vinyl under the arm!

[@ArlenePMCM]

Raincoat is so cute!

[@alejandro4335]

This is soo beautiful!!! don't stop making such wonderful work :)

[@jrrose6689]

You looked absolutely gorgeous in that yellow dress!💛

[@withwendy]

Wow thank you!! It's so fun :) quite skintight so... perfect for showing off some wedding eats LOL

[@mochitwa]

That yellow dress looks amazing on u!

[@KaylaWaylah26]

I’m excited af about this lol this is so dope man !!!

[@yolandarates3298]

hi that is great,5yrs ago I made a rain coat to a friend n its not easy working with plastic but it came out good my friend loved it and even some other people who saw it on her loved it that they asked her where she had bought it, Windy what is the product you said to seal the stitches? where can I get it?, thank you

[@7DeadlyButterflies]

You can put a little scotch tape on the foot to help prevent the vinyl from sticking to it.

[@_Nijntje]

Would love to make this! But I have a difficult time finding the right vinyl/pvc. Any tips?

[@fewofmyfavoritethings]

Wendy you always have such QUALITY content

[@MyTaylordCloset]

Love the camisoles and the yellow dress. Love the raincoat

[@little_miss_sunshine3191]

Could i use an overlocker for that project or would it make no sense? Seams go through it so smoothly

[@dgunnslate]

Working with vinyl is not at all a desire I've had in the 3.5 years that I've been sewing, but your rain coat looks really cute! I live in Atlanta so the zippers might be a necessity here, too. Or maybe just cut holes in the arm pits? Love your videos! You inspire me!

[@withwendy]

Vinyl is definitely not a joy to sew with, but has a fun touch for sure :) Yes just go all out and cut armpit breathing holes I totally support this

[@themachfivepets997]

I learned using coconut oil on the vinyl material makes it go through the machine just fine. Elsewise it sticks so bad - and doesnt sew properly.

[@yule8008]

This is amazing! Can you give some more tips/online resources on how to work with bias tape? I’ve never worked with it before but I soooo wanna make this jacket 😬

[@ekafitriana3746]

thank you for sharing wendy! you go girls!

[@anamargaridajesus2305]

Hello Wendy! Thank you so much for the tutorial! I made a similar raincoat thanks to you :3 My only problem is that after wearing it a couple of times it became kind of foggy, and I really don't know why. I've tried washing it and it doesn't seem to come out. Do you have any tips? Thank you!

[@celiap.1949]

I was going to ask for this tutorial under the last video ! 😊 You read my mind ! 😄

[@silverbracelet6]

Where I live it REALLY rains so I got a vinyl raincoat from Target years ago that was also clear it was horrible because the rain would drip right into my face and into the neck when the hood was up (it also had a big loose hood) and when it was down, it would collect in the hood and drop down my back. Same would happen at the wrist of the sleeves if my hand was moving around- just dripped down my arm. Super trendy but was not functional for me. 😭

[@belledecaucase]

I wonder what wearing it would sound like. Can you please do that in another video? Great work, by the way!

[@jennyobiliseen4301]

You go girl! Loved this tutorial

[@alicecampos6104]

I like the coat! Can you do a tutorial for a skirt in the same material? Its a challenge!

[@seannikolaitadiosa1693]

will a thick plastic cover work?

[@sxerosie]

And OMG yes peacefulcuisine is amazing!!

[@dananewman8652]

curious if you wear it/what were the final feelings on ventilation etc? super cute!

[@aeroracer4875]

Where did you even get your vinyl from?

[@erikkayoung]

Is the binding for design or does it help keep water out of the seams?

[@jesskidding_77]

peaceful cuisine!! didn't know you watch him too :D (psst secretly I want the asmr back... but voiceover is okay too :D)

[@ethanmartin6882]

Omg perfect it rained 6 inches in California today😊😊😊 if I can get some vinyl on my hands I'm making one

[@withwendy]

Hope you find it!!

[@luisaincanada]

I feel like you went slower on this tutorial and i loved it! was able to understand the whole process first time i watched! good job!!

[@zombiesabrr]

tip: if you ever need to straight it, put some butter paper (or how ever you said it hahaha) on top. i worked with that material in uni and it was a nightmare!

[@abigailforsmark6226]

So cute!!! Love this and i might make it

[@withwendy]

Thank you!! If you do please do show me!

[@mini_cc]

This is so cool! Im new to sewing and ive been binging these types of videos. These might be stupid questions, but can anyone tell me what's the purpose of bias tape? is it just for decoration? and what's the difference between an invisible zipper and a regular one? tyty

[@athenaserna3215]

You’ll always be the best

[@citlalygarcia2121]

A little off topic but what’s a good sewing machine for beginners? I’m only 16 but I plan on studying fashion when I graduate. A machine that’s easy to use and basic not too expensive either. 😇

[@randomuser9641]

Perfect for where I live👍🏼

[@billieleung8221]

LOVE YOUR SHIRT

[@richebums9904]

What gauge of vinyl did you use?

[@sophiebru4712]

Yayy new video, love it

[@withwendy]

Thank you!!

[@fashionjas4309]

Did you sew the bias tape after the product was finished?

[@lucianabohnert8777]

That is amazing! 😱😍 I can’t wait to make one

[@pan-sx1hd]

Just what I needed when I needed I love you so much

[@withwendy]

Aw thank you!
