    Ok, I sincerely mean this as the highest praise, every time you show your color palette for projects I’m like, “what the hell?” And then you finish the piece and pull off EVERY. SINGLE. ONE. (I could never pull them off because I lack the confidence) but you slip them on and my brain says, “Yes, that makes sense now. Beautiful. Very Jenna. Excellent work.” ❤

    This old lady loves your channel. I have a suggestion, however for your pants upcycle; take the side seam out so you can flatten the pant leg and get it into your sewing machine. Then, just stitch it back up. Learned that trick years ago when I was 1960s hippie. I'm old. Continue to entertain and inspire.

    Me: oooh! That's cute! And it already looks amazing on her, I wonder what she's doing with it!

    I was inspired by the same pictures you were off Pinterest for the patchwork pants. I did mine about 3 weeks ago on a pair of $.99 thrifted jeans and $.99 thrifted khakis. I did embroidery stitches around mine. I used scraps of fabric I already had, and I thrifted many, many rolls of different colored doilie thread. I used the doilie thread to embroider around and through my patches with Sashiko stitches. I wish I could share a picture with you. I am a teacher, and my students love them! I embroider flowers on my Converse too.

    I had an old pair of boot cuts and I used ric rack around the hems for about 8 rows in different colours. I bloody loved those jeans and no one had the same pair. Uniquely me... you have now inspired me to do it again. I have some dungerees that need cheering up.... ps happy 8th birthday Benson 🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

    I have a whole load of patchwork, just like that, from a quilt my mum and I started, about 30 years ago. I'm always trying to think of ways to use it, other than finishing the quilt. And now, thanks to Jenna, i know how I can use at least a little of it. Love those jeans! Thanks Jenna 😊

  • @OcarinaSapphr-
    @OcarinaSapphr- 7 месяцев назад +2

    I've really felt the desire to do some different stuff with my wardrobe, but 'til last year, struggled with inspiration - in these last couple of months I've enjoyed exploring channels doing thrift-flipping & up-cycling - & had such an incredible time recently garnering ideas & thoughts of the kinds of things I want to do, that could fit in with my personal aesthetics & style - I started wanting to get rid of stuff I don't like any more, like we all do - but I've really focused more on reworking stuff that I still largely like, but there's just _something_ off about them; I've put aside a bag full of clothes to re-dye, to bring them back to life - & some plain stuff that I've adding beading or embroidery to.
    Several dresses/ skirts I've added side panels/ new waistbands to, to re-fit them - but my three most exciting projects:
    I've kept hold of a pair of embroidered jeans that I haven't worn since I was like 16, but I've always been reluctant to throw them out - after seeing some Pintrest stuff, showing creatively patched jeans & Sashiko, I decided to bite the bullet as it were- & cut the embroidery off, & sew them onto my (very) well-loved & still frequently worn Gieger jeans!
    A really cute top I own, is getting an extra buttoned panel of lace & ribbon added to it- the way I'm planning to do it will allow it to be slightly convertible- so it can be worn without it, if wanted.
    I also bought two dresses that were the same make, just two different colours, many years ago - & I've decided to merge them together into one dress: black & electric blue- allowing me to technically resize a style of dress I like a lot - it will make for a very striking outfit!

    I'll bet you know this, and maybe it's in the comments somewhere already - I didn't see it, but the reason the first rick-rack melted is because it was made of a synthetic or blend containing nylon or polyester, which melts. The second giant rick-rack was likely made of cotton, which burns. The burn test is a good way to identify the fiber content of a fabric.
