1930's Crocheted Lace Dress | Fashion Anatomy
Просмотров 3032 месяца назад
This lovely two-piece dress was hand crocheted somewhere between 1910 and the 1930's. When it came to me it was so dusty that the wash water was brown. To get the collar to stand up, I made a Mandarin collar of nude colored silk organza and hand stitched it inside the original collar. This can easily be removed if needed and it did not compromise the integrity of the historical garment. The cle...

This is so lovely. Thank you for sharing. ❤
Hi, Paigeosborne, You are very welcome! Thank you for watching and for commenting! Happy Sewing!
Sally, I absolutely love your content! I’m a beginner to sewing and have a 2025 goal to make a chiffon skirt using your series. Would you consider doing a step-by-step tutorial for any of your fashion anatomy dresses? I love the red and green silk dresses from the Geneva collection and would love to attempt one. They look extremely daunting 😅 Thank you for sharing your knowledge, experience, and passion with us!
Dear Sairsair, Thank you for leaving this kind comment. I am very happy to hear you are going to use my series to learn the chiffon skirt! I will consider your request very carefully. Both of those dresses are very intricately designed and made. I rarely see anything like those nowadays! It's a really good idea! Thank you very much again and I wish you great success in your sewing!
Hello, trying to download your guide to Slopers, but google says the file doesn’t exist ….
Hi, Debbie, Thank you for alerting me to this. Before I contact the person who helps me with technical things, if you would please try this link and get back to me I would deeply appreciate it. www.sewwithsally.com/slopers If the problem persists, I will have to get some help. You can email me directly at sewwithsally@gmail.com Thank you again!
@ thanks Sally but no, says “Sorry, the file you have requested does not exist.” I will email you as suggested.
Hi Sally (sent this via email, but it bounced!) Following on from you tube requesting the Slopers information. Also, if you could help with a related query regarding making a full size Sloper from a miniature version. Many thanks Regards Debbie
@@debbieludgate737 Hi, Debbie, I will figure out the sloper guide situation. In the meantime, you are asking me about making a full size sloper from a miniature version?Do you mean from a half scale form? If that is what you mean, you can take a mini version to a printer,(Staples, for one) and have it blown up. Since it was not draped or taped on a specific body, you will still have to do some fitting corrections. Hope this helps.
@@debbieludgate737 Hi, again, Debbie, I tried and had the same experience. I will have to check into this and get back to you. Only a day or so ago I am sure everything was working so thank you for letting me know and once it is cleared up I will let you know. Have a nice evening!

I am grateful to have found your channel. I have been sewing since 7th grade and love it. I have a part time alterations business and will move into more time when I retire from my full-time job. I found your channel by searching for how to shorten sleeves with a placket, which is a job I need to get done this week. I feel your channel is a treasure. I look forward to learning patternmaking from you. Thank you for your genorosity in sharing sewing knowledge without charge.
Dear jmjcc5, Welcome aboard! I am so happy to hear you found this channel and that I have already been of help to you! I love that you have an alteration business. This is exactly how I started many years ago. People would come for alterations and ask if I also made things. It does not take long to build a clientele as the need for a good seamstress/dressmaker is always high. To financially support this channel I may start some courses. If I do, I will make a video about that. I would love to hear more about what type of alteration work you do. Please feel free to respond if you would like to. Best wishes and Happy New Year!

Do you sell patterns? How can I purchase the pattern for the vintage black dress on the mannequin ?
Hello, I do not sell patterns, I am sorry. I teach how to make your own patterns! Thank you for your comment.❤
However, this is a dress I had thought to teach. Would you want to learn how to make a pattern for the black dress seen behind me on the small dress form?

Thank you, Skirtedgalleons! Have a wonderful day!
Oh wow, this si great. But I'll definitely need to practice it on some scrap fabric. Thank you!
Hi, Skirtedgalleons, You are most welcome! Thank you for watching! Happy Sewing!
hello Sally beautiful video very fine details 😊👍👍🧵🪡excellent sewing stitching skills please kindly consider this small request video please kindly film threading the top thread by cutting the old thread at the top and tying the new threads together and pulling thorough the sewing machine without having to untreated the sewing machine it would be very much appreciated please ok?thank you very much and have a beautiful day and holidays 😊
Hello, Frank, Since you know how to do this, why would you want a video on it? Sometime when I am filming something that I am going to sew, I will do this.
hello Sally at the beginning of this video you had a spool of dark blue thread in front of the sewing machine what was that for?
Hi, Frank, It was for another project and not yet moved off the table, that's all.
Excellent
Thank you so much for this. I am starting to work with finer fabrics, including some sheers, and this will be very helpful.
You are most welcome! Thank you, Sally, for watching and commenting. Happy Sewing!
Hi, Sally! Today I read your comment on the wedding dress and responded. Then, I saw a big flaw in the video and took it down to replace it and that means your comment was lost. I was happy to know you enjoyed it and I loved that you thought of the dart with no knot technique. I looked at the darts closely and they are normal darts that are tied at the ends. The thread is very fine so the knot is extremely small. Thanks for watching and commenting!
You could keep your original hem without cutting it off and starting anew....... mark to where it had to be folded and pressed for a "new hem" but actually pin your old original hem to the new hemline, sew along the edge of the original hem and that's it. They have tutorials on it here on RUclips
Hello, D9P323, Thank. you for this. I am aware of this method but really like less bulk. This is the reason I do a normal double turn hem. I appreciate your comment and many will benefit from it. Happy Sewing!
Best demonstration of dart manipulation I’ve come across. Thank you so much💕
Dear Bevmcmullen, Thank you for this comment and you are most welcome. Have a lovely day!
Thank you. I just downloaded the book from our Library. Looking forward to reading it. Would love to hear more book reviews. They are inspirational! Enjoy your channel!
DernJo-ann, Thank you for leaving this comment. I have a few more ready to go! Have a nice day and hope you enjoy The Other Side of the Coin as much as I did!
hello absolutely fantastic video the industrial sewing machine had no problems going over the side Seams but why didn't you keep the original heam ? 😊👍🪡🧵
Hello, Frankjanvari, So glad you liked the video. What do you mean by "keep the original hem"? I do not understand.
Hello, Frankjanvari! I know about using the original hem. I just prefer this method. It is clean and with less bulk from the seam allowance inside. It's good there are more methods than one! Thank you for taking time to comment! Have a great day!
I really enjoy watching your videos! I learned to sew in JH in the 60’s and sewed my wedding dress and all my dresses and nightgowns for years. I wish I would have seen this video back then as I always wanted to hem jeans because I’m short. Instead I wore higher heels. I don’t sew much anymore. But I SO enjoy watching his it U.S. done by a professional! Thank you!!
What a perfectly beautiful hem!!! I never thought it was possible!! Thank you so much! It makes me want to try it…..

hello Sally the seam guide attachment on your sewing machine looks very good i have only seen it in one of your videos. can you film a sewing topic tip for the beginner sewers its very important to hold the thread tails behind the sewing machine while starting a new stitch to avoid problems when sewing please ok?thank you very much and yes I appreciate your professional skills and knowledge of sewing and tailoring you are truly a professional seamstress 👍👍🪡🧵
At some point I may teach a beginners course on sewing. That would be the best place for me to address something like this. Thank you for mentioning it. Have a great day!
My mother loved boiled wool. I've been sold every since. It's amazing.
Thank you, I could not agree more. Happy Sewing!
well Sally was fun to watch i whish you had the video footage putting in your hair the spools of thread i have never seen anything like this before 😊❤
I am very happy you enjoyed it! It was great fun to make! Have a nice evening!
hello Sally this was a fun video to watch enjoy how did you get those spools of thread in your hair?😊
With bobby pins.
hello Sally it's great to see you take care of your sewing machines but how do you adjust the thread timing for the industrial sewing machine if you need to adjust it or fix it video tutorial please ok?thank you very much 😊 ❤
Hello, Frankjanvari, When the industrial machine needs to be adjusted in any way, I take it out of the table and to the mechanic's shop. I do not try to work on this machine. It needs a professional to work on it.
😀👍🪡🧵hello only a professional seamstress with your sewing skills can make a video like this link to the full length video tutorial??.
beautiful video Sally 😀 can you rethread the sewing machine by cutting the old thread at the top of the sewing machine and tying the new thread together and pulling the old thread true the sewing machine?
Hello, Frankjanvari, Yes, the threads can be tied together and pulled through the needle IF the eye of the needle is large enough for the knot to get through. However, I rarely do this. It's easy enough to thread a sewing machine so I just pull out the first thread and rethread it with the next thread needed.
hello Sally very nice lady seamstress can you please kindly refilm this video again in full length with more details please kindly reply back ok?thank you very much 😊 ❤
Okay.
Are toy leaving the original lining edge raw or did you turn it under?
Hi, Stephanie, Thank you for asking. I turned up the edge of the original lining. I am planning on making another video of this on a different jacket so I can explain it better. Stay tuned and happy sewing!
Brilliant! I am definitely going to try this. Thanks for teaching this!

This is how I learned to sew in school. I appreciate your warm and professional teaching style so much - actual facts and techniques. I love that you used sewn-in interfacing for the collar, not fusible, and took into account the turn of the cloth. Did you make the portable pressing mat? If so, I would love to see a tutorial on that. Carry on!
Dear Pamackenzie, Thank you for your comment. I am so happy you like my teaching style and glad it is helpful to you. I do have a video on sew-in interfacings if you are interested. Here is the link to that video: ruclips.net/video/CHivR9HlFCY/видео.htmlsi=CL0YWrkNRHgCdT0L I did not make the portable press mat, a friend of mine made it for me. I can ask her what she used inside but think the inside is the same as the outside, wool. It's several layers just stitched around the edges and pinked. I would love to make a tutorial on this and thanks for the suggestion! Happy Sewing!
This is great - thank you! I love your machine. I have a few vintage and antique machines myself and love sewing with them.
Hello, Pamackenzie, Thank you for this comment. This is so nice to hear. Happy Sewing!
Thank you so much! I love wearing berets aaaaand I have a ton of wool scraps I can‘t bear to part with…I had had no idea it was possible to sew berets! ❤❤❤
Hi, Julsbendandi9374, This is fun to hear! I LOVE hats as well as headbands and I make a lot of them. Many I knit. This beret was fun to make and I think I may make another of the green boiled wool I made a coat from last winter. This time I may make it about 12" across, maybe larger. Thank you for the comment! Happy scrap sewing!
