Thank you! Glad you like them.

Thank you! Yes it has a lot of stretch but you can felt it in hot water and then it has less stretch. Are you familiar with boiled wool?

Thank you so much! Glad you like them.

Hi! No, I’m just learning how to make bags. I’m actually a milliner, someone who designs and makes women’s hats. I do have a website for that business. Thanks for being interested!

You’re welcome 😊Christine!

@@jennytreanor9465 yay! Great to hear you’ll be wearing your red hat soon! I need to go there. I’ve never been. I’ve been doing a lot of audio recordings here, too. I wish more people would record just sound. It’s evocative, like you say!

You are welcome, Jenny! I was on my way to the Ferragamo museum to see shoes and clothes but got too tired and turned around. I probably should’ve taken a taxi or Uber (taxis work under Uber also).

@@MrMochi-nl1zb Thank you so much! Exactly. Natural ingredients!

@@annabelsmart5305 Thanks so much! Yes, Italy is the number one leader in leather production, in my opinion. Thanks for commenting 💕

I have been wanting to make that video! Actually, if you check my playlist, you’ll see other pieces that I’m wearing. Thanks for reminding me to make a new video. It will have to wait though. They are all in storage in San Francisco and I am studying in Italy for two months.

Thanks for commenting. I’m in Italy now, learning how to make bags!

Thanks so much. I feel like it was my students who has this!

Not to be a victim, but I think it was from parents who constantly compared me to my peers. That can really eat at your self confidence.

Ah thanks Jenny! I agree 😘💋

Ahhh Thanks Paula!

Thank you! I’m so glad we are in the same mindset. 🧑‍🚀

That’s true! Thanks!

Thank you! ☺️

@@mahiraasad7949 Isn’t it amazing?

Thank you so much! I wish I had offered to buy the machine from the makerspace. The manager ended up buying it.

You are so sweet! Thank you. Yes I just booked my one week Venice accommodation ! I love how you comment consistently on my posts. Do we know each other? 😘

@@JzMillinery your content is irresistible! How not to comment :) Glad to hear your plans are coming together. My worst travel anxiety comes when I’ve not yet made any plans 🩷

@@annabelsmart5305 Ahh that is one of the sweetest compliments ever on my youtube channel. Thank you!

Wouldn’t it be wonderful to have more textile makerspaces in the USA?

Wow what a gorgeous.....enjoy making beautiful things you are sooo lucky!!!!

I was so lucky to attend the residency last year. Anyone can attend. Check out their website

I know! I kind of want to go back just for the Textile makerspace, not the residency program. Thanks for commenting!

Thanks so much! Now to decide what to line and bind it with.

Thank you so much, Paula! I will take it off of the block today and make a new video!

Hmm there is a problem in Ecuador with their fine handwoven (panama) toquilla straw blanks that milliners and hatters use to make their hand blocked hats. No one wants to weave it anymore because computer jobs in the big cities pay way more. It’s so sad for our industry.

Thanks!

You're in San Diego!?????

@beautoxxbeautoxx San Francisco has an ‘Ocean Beach’ also!

I actually originally had that revealed in the video but edited it out! Thanks for asking. I’m going to try to gold leaf the feathers with faux gold foil from the Mona Lisa brand and then make fascinators out of them!

You should post a video of how you apply the gold leaf, and let us see how they turn out!

@wearrebel7759 it didn’t work but I bought ‘rub and buff’ and it did! Have you heard of it, Georgia?

@@judoforlife I agree! Icelandic horses are lovely. Thanks

Hmm why is there excess moisture? Mold will grow on the leather if you store it in plastic, for sure. Peeling leather may be because it is low quality. Honestly the best place to research this is the internet. I don’t know the answers to your questions.

Ha ha thanks so much. I need to make the wooden base flat though. It’s wobbly! More reason to find a makerspace that I love! They must have a robust textile room!

Thanks! It will be easier to make clothing for myself now and also take photos of my clothing for sale!

@@wearrebel7759 Thanks so much! Have you tried it yet?

You are so kind. Love you!

Thank you for your compliment! It spurs me to continue.

I really doubt it. Storage in plastic suffocates leathers and wools. I need to research this.

Dyed ? It smells wonderful while boiling the skins. Reminds me of French onion soup. 🇫🇷

@@birdthompson indeed! Miss him everyday.

Thank you! I hope to visit France this Fall! Hope we can meet up.

ahh so sweet. Thank you so much! You bring tears to my eyes. Thanks for commenting, fellow traveler! ❤️

Thank you so much! I shared it with his family as well. Need to make one for my mother, also. She died last July 2023

@JzMillinery that would be wonderful to make one of your mother, too. I’m so sorry to hear of your recent loss. You’ve inspired me to think about putting something together gradually for my parents, even if only a couple of folders. What I really loved was the soundtrack of your father calling you and how it developed. Sound, especially the sound of voice, evokes another sense of a person and their meaning in your life. I love how your father was using a sewing machine and engaged with your work.

@annabelsmart5305 do it! Make some videos also of your parents. I wanted to put a video in of him sewing, but I couldn’t make it work with the Adobe Premier Rush software. I wish I had backed up an external hard drive that failed. Otherwise, I would have even more material! 😘

@@JzMillinery somewhere you have those visuals in your memory :) precious times. Thank you for reminding me about failing hardware, I must open a neglected external drive soon and do something with it.

Oh! Great idea. Thanks!

Red is my choice! Thank you!

Let me know how it turns out! There are other videos where I show how to drape.

Thanks! ❤

Thanks for finding it humorous

I need to do that! Thanks for reminding me. There is one video on my channel of me making a turquoise blue dress, but very quickly. You could always watch it at a slower speed.
