    Hello from Florida! Such a pleasure to watch you sew up these delightful petticoats! I can visualize the blue striped one for a preacher's daughter. And the chevrons, in an outer layer fabric, are certainly for 'Miss Kitty', a saloon owner of the old TV Western "Gunsmoke" (with a red jacket over a crisp white blouse)! Brava, Madame, Brava!

    My immediate reaction at seeing your 2nd petticoat fabric was as follows;
    *Beetle juice, BeetleJuice, BEETLEJUICE!*
    That being said the 2nd petticoat is definitely my favorite.

    I loved watching you make these adorable undergarments. I love how all the seams are well hidden and will wash and wear and stay beautifully strong. It inspires me to use similar techniques in sewing my everyday ordinary modern clothes. Thank you for posting your processes.
    Edited to add, Stashbusting is a GREAT tip!

    What a great job on your petticoat!! Its beautiful!
    Many years ago when I was about 3, my mom bought brown and gold plaid to make me a dress. She laid it out on the living room floor making sure everything matched. Before cutting it out she stopped to go to the basement to do laundry (1950's and a wringer washer--it took awhile). My dad the engineer came home thought, "Oh my, if I rearrange these pieces my wife can save material" -- then "fixed" it. Later that evening, after dinner etc. my mom cut out the dress and sat down to sew. By midnight she was sobbing because nothing was working and she paid $1.00 a yard for it (expensive in 1952).
    My dad then confessed how he "fixed" it for her and she says that she didnt talk to him for 2 or 3 days after that.

    Several things I have to say about this video. 1. You are an absolute saint to work with so many strips! my eyes would have crossed and I would have stopped trying to match stripes three panels into the first petticoat if I had made the same project! 2. I never knew how to make a mitered corner until today. You've enlightened me into a whole new world of things I can make *0*
    thank you for such a lovely video!

      I bought one, but the problem is the blade doesn't appear to be super sharp? I have to go over everything more than once for it to cut. Maybe my cutting mat's too squishy - it's a small one designed for x-acto knife use. Also you need to have a REALLY big cutting mat for a rotary cutter so I found it wasn't practical unless you're able to have a permanent sewing room :(

    Hello Hello, I am new to here, but do watch Ms. Donner, Miss Banner & some other sweet ladies. I apologize for being so late here, but I can promise I'll stick around.
    I would like to show my appreciation of these adorable Petticoats. These have such an alluring flow to them.
    Body con has its place I suppose But the movement of each one of different weights of fabric are a lovely example. Thank you.
    I should like to commission a few night dresses In the delicate cotton lawn. Utilizing the stripe fabric in only the palest blues, lavenders, pink & whites. With the ever so delicate hem, ruffles for days & beautifully executed tucks, dainty ribbons peeking out of the most exquisite lace ... Be still my heart.

    Of course your chevrons are amazing (that pattern matching!) but it is actually the other petticoat that stole my heart. What a delicate, beautiful ruffle! And the lace! And the ribbon! I want to flounce around in it all day!

  • @Side-Quest-Workshop
    @Side-Quest-Workshop 4 года назад

    The stripey petticoat turned out amazing! Those mitered corners make another appearance here: "I then neatly sewed..." You certainly did! As a beginner whose machine-stitched lines are an avant-garde wavy mess, I find myself leaning in to observe every time you effortlessly wrangle that SunStar into submission. LOL!
    That first petticoat is a cotton voile daydream. The little tucks and the lace and that ribbon finish - SWOON. I need to re-watch the part where you created the tucks, and I definitely need to do some research on "ruffle math." **cracks knuckles** Here we go!

  • @Marialla.
    @Marialla. 5 лет назад +8

    Such beautiful skirts! I was very surprised with the dramatic black and white stripes being used to such effect with the horizontal ruffle and the chevrons! It looks like lovely evening wear. The blue and white looks like a charming country girl's skirt. (I know one is a petticoat for under the other but still!)
    I don't know what the over skirt and jacket will be, but I very much want to own and wear a copy of your black and white skirt! Maybe some black tassels at each chevron point would be good, for extra swish and drama! It makes me want to flout current fashions and wear this amazing skirt to a fancy evening out sometime!

Maybe a photo of what a finished item would look like? I am also interested in how you decided the measurement changes from the history book? I am new to historical dress sewing, so I am trying to learn all I can. Thank you very much!

      I enlarged the pattern with an apportioning ruler. It isn't a real ruler, as the length of the ruler depends on your bust, waist, and length of back measurement. If you look up Festive Attyre she has a great a great blog post and a few videos on how to use them!

    I've learned so much from watching you today, especially about matching up strips and how to finish seams with ribbons and lace. How clever you are. I found your page by watching another persons page and she recommended your page. I'm so please that she did. I am still learning so much about sewing and am enjoying the process. Thanks so much for sharing. Does matching up all patterns on fabric start with cutting out the pieces singularly? I have never done this and want to be able to do so when needed. Why do you use a half inch for your seams instead of the 5/8 used in commercial patterns. Learning to draft a pattern is a goal I have for next year. The petticoats you sewed are marvellous. I am so impressed and have fun watching the process.

    • @EnchantedRoseCostumes
      @EnchantedRoseCostumes  5 лет назад +9

      Cutting the pieces out one at a time makes it much easier to match up the pattern perfectly. As for the seam allowance, I prefer to work with 1/2" because that is the main seam guild measurement on my machine 😊

I also use this cheap fabric for my mock up material. To me, I'm not gonna make my petticoats that are long out of anything nice since they will get dirty and worn. Anything shorter, yes, but not the long ones. This fabric from Walmart 8n the prepackaged cuts is woven cotton/polyester blend. It works good for mockup too! Very good!
