    I decided to make Blackbeard's coat from the fifth episode of Our Flag Means Death! This is the fancy embroidered coat that Blackbeard wears when boarding the French ship! In this episode, I discuss the history behind these coats as well as the reasons I had for changing up the time period.

    Thanks for the shoutout!! The coat looks beautiful, and what a brilliant idea to sign your name under the pocket flap!
    Can you perhaps cut the pattern from the armscye to the tip of the bust dart and rotate the extra material around to there, so next time the dart can go on the plain part of the front and won't interrupt the embroidery?
    I love that black dress with the double puffed sleeves at 9:19!

    I love that you're signing your work. More of Cos Tube needs to be doing this... Absolutely stunning work, as always. Just jaw dropping. Never apologize for taking your time on a project - what you're doing is modeling that this stuff simply does not happen overnight. Here's to healthy creating...
    _Technical Question_ - How much does the embroidery distort the fabric, even with the help of the tearaway interfacing? I have a project that I'm working on, a 1950's weskit, that I plan on quilting in the style of the Tristan Quilt for the FR Competition. Right now I'm attempting to guess at how much extra fabric to leave on the preliminary cut pieces to accommodate any shifting of the fabric when I quilt into the wadding and cotton layer underneath. Because, if I get to the end of the quilting and find I don't have any seam allowance left... let's just say the world chocolate supply will be in danger...
    Historically they replaced coat linings. Well. Consider my mind blown. Of course they did, it's the most elegant solution to an ongoing problem of slightly acidic human sweat and oils...

    • @Sewstine
      @Sewstine  Год назад +1

      Thank you so much Cathy! So I usually add about 3-5% to the length because of the distortion. But it’s Sooooo hard to predict. But yes - I make it about 2-3” longer and then cut down what I don’t need. Good luck!!!!

    • @stevezytveld6585
      @stevezytveld6585 Год назад

      @@Sewstine Thanks! Yeah, I was guessing 2-5" extra fabric (length & width). The fish are going to be hand embroidered because that just seems simpler than trying to free-hand-quilt them on the machine. The water will be entirely by free-hand. That part I'm looking forward to playing with. It all seems relatively simple in my head. But I have some chocolate on standby... because... I'll be experimenting with the final fabric... samples will only get me so far, I'm afraid.
      Thanks again!

    I’m so envious you have an embroidery machine …I would do a hand embroidery but imagine how long that would take me. Wonderful piece you’ve made; can’t wait to see the final product. I’m working on a Summer weight stripped cotton woven fabric similar to the cut of your jacket. It’s a light tan background with golden camel and navy blue colored stripes of varying thickness. I chose a light weight navy woven wool with extreme basket inter woven pattern for the border of the coat and will follow with waistcoat and breaches in the same. I only have the patience to hand embroider the front of the waistcoat ( will do Navy silk on the Navy wool ) but as this is more of an American 1790’s style they were less flamboyant & I might get away with it. Thanks for your video and putting me in contact with Black Snail Patterns. It’s all very helpful.

    I love the dress you are wearing at 9:18! Were did you get it? Or did you make it? Love the video. Never mind. I see it in the discription. Thanks a lot!

    Hi Sewstine, I am a beginner when it comes to sewing and my current project is a faux suede pirate coat (Simplicity pattern S9086). I'd like to add pockets to the coat so the pocket flaps are actually functional. Can you offer any advice on how to properly insert pockets when the original pattern doesn't call for it? I've never sewn pockets before and since I'm dealing with faux suede, it's a little daunting. Thank you!
