I'm a completely self-taught sewist and an amateur at everything.
I love historically inspired fashion and making clothing that fits my body and life rather than trying to mold myself into the latest fashion. Some of my projects are self-drafted or pattern-hacked, but I occasionally follow the patterns of other designers. Along the way, I share my process and show new skills I'm learning.
Sometimes you'll also see cats, gardening, kitchen-ing, and travel on this channel as well.

Currently, I post videos about twice a month on this channel, but I post several times a week on Instagram:

I Found The Easiest Beginner Sewing Tutorial: Matchy Matchy Sewing Club Ballet Bow Skirt
Просмотров 388Месяц назад
Don't buy this pattern, get it for free from Matchy Matchy Sewing Club! (Not sponsored, just on a journey of trying different patterns and pattern makers) This is probably the most beginner friendly skirt pattern I've seen that still offers a lot of fun flair, so give it a shot if you've been looking for that first garment pattern to break the ice.

Making My Husband a Pirate: Stash Busting Renaissance Faire Costume
Просмотров 363Месяц назад

This is a project for their Storyteller's Community that I'm involved in this year, so the pattern was free t...
Making a Shirring-Effect Summer Dress without Elastic Thread
Просмотров 8262 месяца назад
Shirring is controversial, but it helps to make clothes more adaptive and I think it can be done in a really attractive way! Join me as I develop a comfortable and sturdy shirring-effect technique using recycled elastic for this summer dress! I used about 4 yards of a linen/cotton blend fabric, 9 total short elastic pieces, and a ton of white cotton thread. The base bodice patterns I adapted ar...

Looking for the Perfect Pear-Shaped Pants: Part 1, Fernway Culottes and Arenite Pants
Просмотров 5054 месяца назад
If you have a very curvy body shape, you probably struggle with a lot of off-the-rack clothes. I'm very pear-shaped, so my hips are much bigger than my waist and to be honest, I'm really disappointed by brands' "curve" fit lines having only up to 10 inches of difference between waist and hips. So, in this video I tried to make my own pants using two patterns. First, the Fernway Culottes by Twig...
Making a Sakura Blossom-Inspired Hat on a Budget
Просмотров 2724 месяца назад
While I was able to use some of the materials I already had on hand, I estimate most people with craft chains in their neighborhood should be able to make a similar project for about $7 USD. I can envision this being great for renaissance faires, cosplays, and festivals, You can also spend a little more and add more details or use higher-end finishes.

Fortunately, the rain stopped in time for things like the joust to still take place, though maybe a little bit augmented for safety.

My Viewers Choose My Renaissance Faire Costume

A few weeks ago I asked my viewers to choose a few themes for me to build costumes around for the renaissance faire and here are the results. My goal was to only use things I already have not buying or making anything new. You may recognize a few of the pieces feature in this video, actually.
