Skyrate!! So cool 😎

Wow ! This video shows the hard work in making this corset bodice. It looks amazing! Love the make up!!

Sorry you have to deal with such horrors.

I love these videos so much, they're so chill and inspiring for me to work on my own stuff! I love your cosmic pirate and I really want to make a sky pirate of my own for the MD Ren Faire this year! Looking forward to the skirt installment 😍

NOT IMPRESSED

I have never heard of that overlock stitch finishing thing before (usually just tie them in a knot and pray) so that was a handy thing to learn

Sticking the needle in backwards to thread the serger tails through is so smart! I got a serger a little while ago and am just now learning all the tips and tricks - definitely much easier than doing it pointy end first and trying to not snag anything!

I don't know if it's your vibe or in your skill tree, but I've been seeing crocheted weapons on Instagram. It's fake, but cute.

A little gun powder pouch would look super cute!! Small and light so it won't add too much!! Looks amazing!! Loved the whole series!!!

I will be going to a ren faire this year (for the first time in a loooong time) because of your videos (this one especially…). I was so excited about seeing you put together an outfit and immediately started thinking about how I would create one. Started the process of collecting pieces and talked about it with a coworker, who’s going every year and was asked to come along. I am incredibly happy to have found this video (and with it you and your content) and to be looking forward to making my own ren faire memories thanks to your creation 🥰🥰❤️ Have a good one ❤

Next time do a video just about the jewelry and accessories!!

maybe a sparkly potion in a grenade shaped bottle

preface that i don't use ai and i dislike its role in the modern economy, but the idea that using ai is especially non-ecofriendly is a misunderstanding- it uses about the same energy as using any other webpage, the *creation* of an ai is energy intensive but that has already happened and using an ai isn't going to be making it happen more. i understand that there are a lot of personal opinions on data training but i also think whether its final product constitutes "stealing" isn't so settled either- it doesn't store any of the images it's trained on, and the way it puts together images doesn't contain any components of real images it was trained on. either way i respect your decision! but i think its important to be well informed and this topic has just been warped a lot by how quickly it happened and how unusual the technology is.

I NEED to know is the star Damascus people have a website! PLEASEE!!,!!!

The outfit is absolutely one of my favorite things. The entire group looked SO GOOD, y'all never cease to amaze. 🌙 ✨ On the idea of Patreon, if it's too much additional work, I'd say don't do it. I do think it's a nice way to congregate the people who want a deeper dive into your process, but that also means additional filming and editing (usually with Behind-the-Scenes vlogs and things). But also means additional income if you want to possibly outsource some of the burden of work 👀 If you do decide to go a membership subscription route, I'd think it would be fun to have monthly streams - q&a's, crafting days (to get inspired by the community or to inspire the community by crafting as a collective), sewing advice, etc. I personally think it would be cool if you were able to sell your patterns/work templates (like the measurement chart for the corset body) on an online shop, and maybe also a monthly newsletter with fun project updates. However, I don't know your workflow and which option makes more sense for you. Additionally, if it's feasible, creating a backlog of videos could help with scheduling and minimizing burnout because then there's a bit less of a rush to churn out *content.* Or, just to throw off the whole system, make a few Baby Bat (and Honey Bee) videos 😂 I'm sure everyone would love seeing more of your fur babies simply being adorable little guys.

I would LOVE if you made a patreon. It would be fun to see your WIPs in update posts every so often on there either in photo format or mini vlogs. It’d also be cool to see more of your design process and project planning. I also think it would be cool to see some technical posts for skills that you use when working on your projects. Honestly I’d be happy with whatever!

Maybe you could have sparkly “gunpowder” packets/tubes on a bandolier? Love how the outfit came out! Edit: ooo what about instead of a regular looking gun, you have a raygun?

🌌💫🌙✨⚓️🫶🏻🖤

Beautiful

A foam cannon backpack! Storage for your fair needs as well as more detail for the gunner position.

I think the look is fantastic! I think you crunched at the end and maybe that is your misgivings, but honestly your color and fabric choices and design was absolutely gorgeous. You are very talented!

I have that hot topic skirt too! Super well done recreating it, your sky pirate version is gorgeous! I may be stepping on toes if your group had someone being the ship’s lookout. But I think a shiny brass telescope would also be a really good pirate accessory. I don’t know what the weapons policy is like for stricter fairs, but some allow foam swords. If you wanted to dabble in EVA foam work, a brassy / gold cannon hanging off your back would definitely grab attention at the fair. Or maybe a fake crossbow?

the whole outfit turned out fantastic!!! loved seeing this series :)

Absolutely beautiful and amazing 🤩

the skirt is so cute - the whole fit is such a huge vibe! i've always loved that like steampunk/sky pirate / kinda treasure planet vibe. and oh man - feeling like you have to make the sewing process faster while still wanting to enjoy Making and having so many ideas!! i feel that on such a deep level. the struggle is real!! (and Twilight's Tempest!!! omg what a fun name!)

it ended up being pretty cute <3 I am going to replicate the shirt... I hope it goes well 😅

This whole look turned out wonderfully, love the way you tied everything together + stash projects are the best! a hat would be great, you could also do some matching belt bags that are stuffed to look like gunpowder bags? and maybe a bandolier and/or some belts around the chest, since you can't bring actual weapons to MDRF but want something "weapony"

I still kind of think you needed a tricorn in the same blue and stars to go with it

Oh' thank you ! I had a difficult time watching you the machine way doing reticello by hand would as I do, seem far easier why oh why I was thinkin' girl do it by hand! Alas she says would like to , I know you will like it. Have a good day .

This was so many years ago but I have a genuine question. When adding the beading, would it have had the same effect to have doubled the thread instead of gone through the beads twice with single thread? This is a beautiful project <3

I hope I can go to the Maryland RenFaire. That corset looks amazing!!!

Brilliant work as always.

Love the vibes of this project!! Pirates are always a good time, and I love celestial themed costumes. I'm currently working on a big celestial themed costuming project myself, of formal wear (moon themed ball gown for myself, and a sun themed suit for my spouse). I commiserate with you about what you said re: the design process. Coming up with the design has been the hardest part, and I'd much rather just jump into the sewing! Excited to see the skirt video!

Looks so fun! I've been to the Bristol RenFaire every year since forever and as much as I love it, I would love to experience something different

I love the purple sweater with embroidered flowers that youre wearing!!!

Where do you buy your grommets from?

Great video! I just wanted to suggest that you should definitely take some time to relax and to do self-care because it sounds like you have a lot going on all at once. 💕

Eyelash lace - I avoided it because...bleeeuugh...it never occurred to me to just cut off the hairs! 😂

I love your videos and the garmdnt you make. I wonder if you could just speak a little slower or not cut out so much between phrases in editing? Said with love.

On the AI use, aside from the ethical and environmental nightmare, i think it would, weirdly enough, limit your ideas?? Because it's becoming more and more the same (at this point i can tell a image is AI bcs they all have the same... feel??? Idk it's weird) Maybe another way to expedite this part of the process can be using a photomontage app (taking the bits and pieces you like abt this and that and pasting them on - could even be good ol' scissors, like those styling games from the 90s) Anyway i'm glad you were able to find your stance on AI and i wish ppl stopped expecting content creators to immediately be perfect at everything and have all the knowledge

Honestly, I’m PROUD of you because a lot of people won’t even put it up for discussion or admit they need to be educated on it. I also wanted to say you have been really inspirational for me!🤍

I looked away for a minutes and turned back to getting jump scared by Amy Lee's eyes boring into my soul over the edge of your work table lmao. Very fun corset when all is said and done, and I am glad the AI talk felt productive rather then an argument or a slog.

I'm a new subscriber and I wanna say you are so awesome. As an artist myself I honestly didnt get bothered about the AI bc you were so transparent about how you used it. You're extremely talented and you carry yourself so well! I'm glad I'm subbed ^_^

I loved watching you make the bodice 😍 All of the jingly details are a dream

Thank you for including a summary of the conversation and information about AI from the comments section of the previous video. Thank you for being open to new information and your accountability! It's hard to own up to a mistake, especially on the internet when people are often a lot more harsh and judgmental than they would be in person. I also thought some of the comments were a little harsh, but I commend you for not shying away from the topic. Not only have you helped bring awareness to the ethical and environmental problems of AI, but your maturity in showing your changed stance in light of new information is a great example to all of us on how we should change and evolve when presented with new information. The bodice turned out really well! I love the whole ensemble! I'm always inspired by the amount of detail you add--it's more than I would think to add, but it adds so much depth and texture! Also, I am so sorry about the tree, and the broken well pump, and the broken tooth. All of those things totally suck, and that's so much to deal with all at once! I hope everything gets resolved well soon, and that all those repairs aren't too expensive!

Future you popped up just in time for me to not click away and never watch anything you do again. I'm not a regular viewer so I haven't seen the video where you mentioned AI before, but it's really refreshing that you actually listened to people and changed. It seems like that never happens anymore, especially on the internet

As a crafter who would rather be sewing then sketching, what you described as using AI for speeding through the conceptual development and visualization makes so much sense, so you can focus on the parts of the creative process that brings the most joy. We cannot put the AI genie back in the bottle, so transparency in process and understanding it to be a shortcut is fair game to me. I would not begrudge someone for buying a pattern rather then drafting from scratch. That said, some of my favorite work that you have done is you bringing other peoples concepts to live, like the Evelution fairies. I would love to see more of that teamwork to design and make with other creaters. Lots of love, this looks awesome!

I appreciate how much Minji was transparent about using ai as references and inspiration and therein trying to learn more about the ethical issues with it. I think it can be difficult to find a coherent message to any issue online especially if youre not constantly online, and don't know what sources to trust when a lot are conflicting. 😅 heaven forbid people be human and make mistakes

best of luck with the tree falling through the roof!!!
