Your hauls make me want to go to New York so bad! I'm not even interested in the touristy things, I just want to see all the pretty fabrics in person
+lollipop6234 Haha, I haven't even done most of the touristy things yet I go in at least twice a year to shop for fabric! Clearly we have the right priorities!
+Angela Clayton Who needs sight seeing when you can just look at fabric? :D
Come Los Angeles to the Garment Distric or The Santee Alley, fabric tons of trims etc
1890-1910 is my favourite period in fashion history. I'm SO excited!!!
I can't wait to see how they all come together! If you need turn of the century inspiration, Murdoch Mysteries is an amazing show with fantastic costumes.
I love your matte robin's egg blue nails in this. :) Your fabric hauls are so fun! It's wonderful to get a mini preview of what you have planned for the future.
You're my favorite artist/designer to watch grow and I've only recently started watching your videos! Keep making beautiful things.
So excited to see the final outcome!
HI! I just wanted to put out there that you have inspired me to start sewing. Your gowns and original pieces are so beautiful and are so inspiring.
OMG! I'm salivating over here! The lace is especially gorgeous!!
Love your channel - great to see other young people sewing! Rock on girlfriend!!!
You inspired me to start recording my sewing projects!
I love your videos, seeing your sewing or talking about your projects and experiences really makes me want to sew more!
She kind of looks like Snow White 😍
I'm so excited that you want to make something inspired by Downton! I had a favorite store go out of business a few months ago and on the last day open I picked up some of the fabrics for a cosplay I want to make. It is the teal pant outfit that Sybil wears at the end of the first season.
+Whitney Sews That's awesomel! It's such an interesting variety of fabrics and textures all in one costume - I bet it will be really fun to work on!
I am so excited that you are going to be making garments from one of my favorite time periods! Your hauls make me excited for you, and I am looking forward to the lovely pieces you will be creating!!
I'm looking forward to your 1920s dresses. I am also a fan of Downton and a fellow seamstress. I totally share your affinity for the dresses of the day. I'm also not usually a fan of that era but they attracted me all the same. :)
Loved this video! Can't wait to see the etsy haul and all the dresses you're going to make. Thank you!
Aw man, that black lace makes me wanna watch Titanic. Absolutely beautiful. I'm looking forward to seeing what you do with all these wonderful fabrics. Happy New Year, Angela!
OMG, those fabrics are so soft and pretty! I'm so excited to see what you're gonna do with those!
You should totally do sewing tutorials! You're sewing skills are goals.
Haha I found your blog for my initial research on my 1890s masquerade gown I am making for my costume degree and now you are actually making the same period
Maybe it was the lighting in the store, it tricked your eyes so you couldn't see the stain. I don't know if it's really your style but maybe you can use the damaged fabric to your advantage and make a more darkly inclined dress out of it. Something that is meant to be distressed.
I'm so happy you keep on doing these haul videos! I love them! I like your earlier period dresses, but like the 19th century has one of the prettiest dresses in my opinion, so I'm really happy that you decided to tackle some. Can't wait to see the results, especially of that cape and the taffeta dress~ And the flapper dress sounds amazing, I feel like it will suit you a lot because of your long legs.
What I would like to know, how much time you spend choosing and buying all those fabrics and beads, because of all the effort you put into finding the right ones.
+WolkeYume I'm so glad you like them! I usually spend about six hours shopping per a trip (including train times it's 8am-6pm!). It's become more time consuming as I make bigger "ensembles" where all the fabrics need to coordinate. But it's a lot of fun too! :)
The peach lace is the fabric of dreams 💕💕💕
It is shocking to hear how cheap are fabrics, trims and buttons in America! Here in Italy, even if we cannot complain about the quality, in most of the shops you will end up spending 3-4 times those prices and sometimes choices are limited because we don't have garment districts or huge craft strore like Joann's. Resources like Esty are vital for costumers and vintage sewing lovers. Your Etsy review will be really welcomed, if you ask me! I cannot wait to see your future creations for 2016!
I looove your fabric hauls!! ❤❤❤
Loved watching this haul :) I can't wait to see what you make. I love the costumes in Downton Abbey too. The 20s dresses can be amazingly interesting! I'll be watching for updates :D
I love your fabric haul videos! :)
Athena Power as
I would really love to see a Crimson Peak inspired dress, that film was so gorgeous. Also your hair looks amazing in this video :)
Beautiful fabrics! ! I really hope you use the ostrich feathers and you can always make velvet roses from any velvet left over to match the cloak or dress for the hat you make!! can't wait to see what you do it this haul.
+Sarah Longshore Thank you! I definitely will. I'm thinking of pairing them with the black/white 1890s ensemble - the hat can be a pop of color with purple decorations!
That's a good idea. I've always wanted to learn how to make fabric flowers and they would suit that project nicely!
I'm so happy. You will be doing my favorite era in design. That stained silk is a pity. It's so light. Can you use a lace overlay on the stained area or maybe get it dyed? The coral lace with beading might look hand done if you cut and overlay it like lace applique. I wondered where you were, it make sense. Shopping in N.Y. And as for the expensive buttons, the metal buttons you displayed look hand designed, cast and polished. It explains the cost. They are truly lovely. It would be a pity for them to be cheap, so they are worth it. Remember, cast buttons in the Victorian and Edwardian age were never for closure, only decoration. I am going to have so much fun watching you do this. Of course not as much as you.
+Penney Burgess I'm going to try and hide it in the back of the dress - I think washing it will remove some of the staining, and the english net overlay should hide the color difference pretty well. It's more an issue that the narrowness of unstained silk prevents me from cutting out the skirt panels the way I had planned. But i'll try to figure out something!
I think the buttons were worth the price considering the quality (the shank of them is especially nice the way it's cast), but i'd still rather spend more on fabric and purchase cheaper buttons.
I'd never heard that about buttons before! A few of my favorites from that period appear to have metal functional buttons (that open to reveal a hook/eye closure...but still!) even though dorset and embroidered buttons were more popular. I'm using them mostly for decorative purpose on this piece, so I should be good.
You are so incredibly creative, I'm sure you'll figure that out. I'm looking forward to it so much.
Hooray! I've been waiting for this.
The black beaded lace is very Lady Mary and the peach is so Lady Edith. You might want to review the Downton fabric collection by Andover. It's cottons, quilting weight, but might give you some ideas and inspiration. I'm making Duchess and Lady Mary quilts from the lines.
I hope you do an Etsy Haul episode.
Thank you for sharing this. It's exciting to hear a little of the plan and your goals. I'm looking forward to the next episode.
+Melanie Varela Weirdly enough all the evening gowns on the show that I love are worn by Cora! I think hers are a bit more "dated" which I tend to favor. But Edith and Mary have beautiful casual wear...those tailored suits and silk blouses are stunning!
That's interesting about the quilting line of materials - i'll have to look into them!
Your fabrics are gorgeous! I love hearing all of you great ideas on what you are going to sew. tfs
Your creativity is so inspiring I love your videos and I think you're beautiful! Keep doing what you do!
Oh my gosh, weren't the dresses from Crimson Peak amazing?!!! They were so incredibly gorgeous, I was almost distracted from focusing on the movie! I hope that designer wins an Oscar for that movie. For that fabric with the water damage: could you dye the whole thing a darker color, like a deep plum or indigo? Silk usually takes dye really beautifully. And yes, please do an etsy haul/seller review. That would be awesome!
OMG I CANT WAIT TO SEE YOUR EDITH JACKET OMG
Me and my friends desperately want to dress in her bed time outfit but i have zero clue how to make it.
I am excited to see what you are going to make :)
I highly recommend that you search through asain dress stores, as a 'sari' is 9yards of material, and you can get a lot of lace styles like the ones your showed form $20. even though its a dress itself, you can still use it as the base material, especially if you want chiffon, net and silks
Aaaahh, yes! I adore Victorian era fashion! Corsets and fluffy dresses should come back in style :P Maybe not so much the waist training aspect, though.
This is gorgeous!!!!
Wow... the lace fabric... You can't get that kind of quality for a so low price here xD ! I see some... it was more like 50 euro the meter (i even see 300 euro the meter but that was... gorgeous as hell ! ) Can't wait to see the result !
Beautiful fabric! And you dyed your hair looks nice !
I love 1800's clothes and Medievil time clothes too. Can't wait to see your next project. I just your channel. You are awesome young girl. Are you finish your fashion school. How did you start becoming sewing. I really love to learn more about your fashion and sewing. 👍🏼👍🏼
I am absolutely in love with your dresses! Everything you do is the definition of lovely. I doubt you would want to since it seems you only do this for fun but I can't help it! Is there anyway you could make a prom dress? Not like the typical ones but something lovely and different from the usual. I love the dresses with the flowers in the hem or bottom! I have been saying I want a dress with patterns on it or with colors but not just colorful, something with beautiful accents. My mom showed me your dresses and they are captivating!
Prints you could say
wow, that fabric is so cheap! I'm a bit jealous... But very pretty selection, loooking foreward to see you use them!
Hi! I love your tutorials, you make everything look so easy! I would like to start sewing too, but I don't know where to start, especially when it comes to sewing machines! Do you have any suggestions for good beginner sewing machines? Thank you so much for your tutorials, they're amazing!!
I'm really looking forward to the 1920's and Donwton dresses!
Just suggest but please do some FAQ about your experience up and down while you creating some projects. I really need motivation and inspiration because sometimes i felt lazy or frustrated with my projects, and when i saw your projects video i thought you're super super painstaking (patient) .maybe your experience can motivate me and other people too :) thankyou 💞 btw i love all your video!
I love your fabrics! I wish we had more fabric stores where i live, we only have a Joannas. It isn't bad but i wish we had more variety
Hey Angela! Could you please make a video explaining different types of fabric? like what they are typically used for, how hard/easy they are to use exc... Pretty please!!?
if you every deiced to come to AZ make sure you go to SAS Super Store they have 3 other stores that are smaller but there fun to go to because you can find fabrics to lace that has been discontinued
Love your videos, you are so talented! Would you be able to do a video of your beading process? especially for when you bead your own lace!
The cording is soutash and you got a nice deal!!
I would call the velvet a wine color maybe? Beautiful haul!
You can very easily make your own fabric roses, like the white ones you show in the video :) search for "ribbon rose" or "fabric flower" on RUclips, and you'll get a ton of tutorials. That way you can make any colour you'd like :)
I'd kill for that pink lace
With your water damaged silk, you might consider having it dry cleaned - it might fix the problem.
yes for that etsy haul! also good video :)
thought of dry cleaners for the stained silk? they might have tips on how to save it
Rich colors and velvet are my favorite too! I'm so excited to see your new dresses! I hope to one day see your vulture dress, and the flapper dress! Which by the way, and peachy/dusty pink fabric looks so perfect for the idea! :D
Also, do you wear the dresses you make outside in public? :)
xoxo -Lydia
Oh I love that red velvet,I think it'd be called wine coloured?
Angela, tell me please, where do you bye such a beautifull cloth???
dear Angela I was wondering if u could make a Quincenera similar type dress, seeing that u really know ur stuff, I would love to make my own Quincenera dress. thank you.
I'd love to see a Etsy haul + review!
The feather clusters are coque and stripped coque!
Does anyone know where I can purchase fabric such as the pink and black beaded ones within the uk?x
Beautiful haul! Did you go to school to learn to sew or are you self taught?
I would love to know how she styles her hair:)
what material would you recommend beading on?
You're so beautiful and talented!
Can you dye the water damaged fabric?
+Tamara Palaganas Just what I was going to suggest. The first thing I'd do is take a few inches of the fabric and soak it, then dry it to see if the color evens out and the water discoloration disappears. But if stain persists, test dye the swatch.
what were your first ever sewing projects?
Hi I just have to ask what size or measurements does your mannequin have?
your work is nice
Wow... Cool fabrics... But whats your job actually?
plz make a video how to make 3 hoop petticoat under skirt plz please please thank you
💕✂
I wonder If you are a secret time traveler and each dressmaking is actually your preparation to an other era...
Cant you go to the store and tell them that they sold you damaged fabric? I'd be hella pissed off
😀 hey angela is that your real name? It a beautiful name.... You are the best!
I live in switzerland.. Everything is soo expensiv :(
woah...Fabrics are so expensive in America😲
Kitta12320 where are you from? I think they actually have really awesome prices. unfortunately here in Romania everything is so damn expensive, including fabric
Iulia Diana Marian i'm from India. here fabric prices are crazy cheap. the poly tafetta fabric which she bought for 4$ wouldnt cost more than a dollar here. i buy a lot of good quality fabric for less than a dollar/yard. I cant imagine how much they must cost you in europian countries 😲. especially pure silk. my cousin studied fashion design in london school of fashion and she said that some fabrics there cost her 10 times more than they would cost in India.
Kitta12320 gosh this sounds amazing. I don't know about other countries, but in my country the fabrics are incredibly expensive. people usually have 2000-3000 lei salaries, and to get brocade or silk or anything that is not basic cotton (which is also crazy expensive) you have to fork out a lot of money (70-80 a metre). compared to the salaries, that is really expensive. I'm just starting out, so I bought a lot of stuff with the holiday discounts and planning on not buying anything more the next 3 months at least. I envy you so much!
@@t-.-t. I imagine that salaries in India are a lot less than the US?
Hey can we request u a challenge we will send u a picture of a clothes and u will make it!....😀 u can also make a title of it dont worry if your fabric is not to similarl....💁🏻💁🏻😀😄
what material would you recommend beading on?
