    that white long thing is indeed window decoration that was widely used in the Netherlands at the end of the 20th century. It was usually done at the bottom of the window, so you didn't have a view of people walking past your window, but you did get light. I think it was called "een valletje"

      In Canada, it's called a café curtain that goes halfway down the window.

    • The grommets really make the hat look so professional
    • I love using curtains, there’s so many with cool details that make great garments - the vest turned out great

    That first piece of fabric is actually made to be a Cafe Curtain. A rod goes through all the holes at the top.

      Ahh, that makes sense as to why it's so long!

    I gather by using a tight tension and then I distribute it evenly when I'm sewing it to another piece

    What type of markers do you use to do your markings? I have trouble finding ones that actually show up on the fabric.

    • @eleanorstieva
      @eleanorstieva  4 месяца назад +1

      I usually just use a pencil or a white gel pen for darker materials!

    First piece you are working with (the white) is actually a curtain. Great idea you have.

    For gathering you should try the method of sewing a wide zigzag stitch over some thread, its way faster :)

    Would you ever release a pattern for the top you sell on your website?

      No, just the finished product :)

    Those are curtains, lol. The holes are there for sticking the curtain rod through. 🙂

    I know that we can't fully control how we speak, yet your delivery is noticeably measured compared to the overabundance of "quirky girl!" youtubers. I cringe at the overuse of "literally" in most creators' vids and the fast edit styles. So, uh, I suppose just thanks for being natural and you. It works! ha!
