One of the best parts of historical costuming is making historical clothing that you can wear in daily life-- it's called historybounding, and it's a great way to get more wear out of your historical fashion. So when I wanted a new dress for a fancy New Year's Eve party outfit, I made one I could wear for Roman period costume and for with Regency dress too! And, of course, a sewing vlog about it. I put together this super simple chiffon dress based on a Roman dress called the stola. It's only got four seams, so it's super quick and easy and would make great beginner historical sewing projects for anyone who wants a DIY NYE dress. The history of clothing and fashion is cyclical, and it's great to have a style that works for multiple periods of fashion history.
If you're wondering what to wear with a dress like this, I got you! To show how versatile this historical dress is, I made a little historical lookbook with three ways to wear it! Firstly, there's my NYE party look, mixing the neoclassical aesthetic with modern dancewear and sparkly party makeup. Next is the Ancient Roman outfit, which isn't historically accurate but is fun, comfy, and great for SCA events or any costume event outdoors in hot weather. The stola is worn over a simple chiton made of a length of repurposed linen, tied with a ribbon belt, and finished off with a Roman style veil called a palla. In Ancient Rome this outfit would be for married women, but since a crinkle silk chiffon dress isn't period correct to begin with, I'm just going for Roman dress DIY vibes. For the Regency look, this dress is a perfect and period appropriate way to get more use out of simple Regency garments like a white cotton dress. The early Regency period of historical fashion was obsessed with neoclassical style. Add the stola as an overdress to a plain dress like my first Regency dress sewing project, and you've got a colorful, distinctive, and stylish outfit that you didn't need to sew from scratch! Happy New Year to you all, and I hope you feel as great in your party dresses as I do in mine.

@@ragnkja ooh good catch! It's fixed now.
for anyone that is unsure, I've earned $140 in giftcards since August, mostly amazon, sometimes I pick walmart, they also have nintendo, visa, and lots more to choose from. totally helped us through my husband on medical leave with a cracked tibia.

1. I’m NOT sorry!
2. YOU LOOK SO AMAZING AHHHHH
1. If you were, I'd ask who you were and what you did with my friend!
2. THANK YOUUUUUU 💚💚💚
I have a tunica and stola which I made for a Latin class event in Middle School, and I wear for Halloween. I've worn both pieces separately for modern parties. When I was researching the tunica I stumbled onto a historically accurate design which resembled the Doric peplos (but it's T-construction, like a tunica or a modern T-shirt rather than wrapped from the side like a chiton of peplos). It was 2006 when I made this, so it was on-trend for the time😂. I often used it kind of like a full slip, especially with one particular skirt that I adored but was too bottom-heavy to wear without a belt. I liked that I could hide the heavy-duty ugly belt that I needed to hold the skirt up under the blousing. I could wear a scarf as a top without worrying about it slipping, or a cropped jacket without worrying about my belly showing (I have ugly poison ivy scars, so I never show my stomach). The stola was made of not historically accurate flannel, because I could only justify making it if it could be a Halloween costume and I lived in Massachusetts at the time. It *is* accurate in being open at both sides though, which I also did on purpose so that it could be worn over a shirt and slacks for modern events. When I wear the tunica and stola as a Roman costume, I have a matching pashmina (a little longer than the typical palla, but it's technically historically accurate since scarves in this style were worn in Parthia and could be bought in Roman cities), hair net, and costume jewelry of my grandmother's. I went for a lower-class look on purpose, because I'm too cheap for hair extensions and salon styling (or jewelry with real gemstones): so it's all in red, white and charcoal gray. I only realized after assembling the costume that it's the exact combination of lower class and fashion-conscious which a sex worker circa the year 30 AD might have worn. So I accidentally made a Mary Magdalene costume😂.
Wow that was a lot of info 😮😅 very interesting though 👍💝
Ahahaha I love this!
A round of applause for pyjama Vi! I was surprised by the versatility. And as I think the modern version is the most differentiating from the others, that one is probably my favorite. Enjoy your New Year’s parties Vi 🥂
*for once* she had an actually good idea!
"...because no one can stop me!", I wouldn't try even if I could. (Seriously internet, don't ever tell a dragon she can't do a thing...)
I like the roman/greek version the best. The veil on that one really brought the look together.
I'm glad it appears that your lungs are doing better, and I hope the new year treats you well. Take care.
Headwear does so much for an outfit! The veil is just a modern scarf from an old coworker, and I wear it for Regency things most often 🤣
[sighs] [gets out some chiffon from my stash] it's only .... 3 days til new years....... this is definitely a reasonable idea.
(all jokes aside this is SO CUTE and i love how versatile it is! historical fashion being inspired by older historical fashion really gives us modern historybounders a leg up in broadening our eras when you can use one garment for multiple eras like this)
Including filming, the entire sewing process for this took me less than an afternoon. So yes, absolutely reasonable!
The first historical garments I made were for a speech when I was 14 (in 1994) on ancient Greek theater, and it was, unsurprisingly, very similar to what you just made! I would love to see a hair tutorial including how to do the Regency/Roman bandeau hair style, that's not something I have been able to figure out how to do, though I have repeatedly tried!
In middle school we did a unit on ancient Greece where we got points for coming to class in costume . . . I had perhaps too much fun with it 🤣
The hair isn't documented or "accurate", but I can definitely see about doing a tutorial!
The only historical outfit I've made was in high school, when I made a stola and tunica (Snappydragon uses the word chiton here, but I believe strictly speaking that would refer to the Greek garment the tunica, as it is known in Latin, was based on) out of bedsheets for Latin club, topped with a purple sheet used as a palla. Not the most authentic fabrics, but I was pretty proud of myself, since we didn't even have a sewing machine. I copied a hairstyle I saw on a bust at a Pompeii exhibit. This was helped by the early 2000s monstrosity called the Bump It.
Ha! Ha! Four seams, I knew it had to be Greco-Roman! Absolutely stunning!
See now I feel like I have to think of some other dress I could have made with four seams 🤣
@@SnappyDragonprobably something from the 1920s
@@SnappyDragon when you make it, I'll want to see that too!
I actually have worn my short purple spiral lacing pinafore kirtle to two parties so far. Everyone was just happy to see me in something that wasn't work pants with paint on them, and I was happy that I could bounce around and not care that I hate bras :P I'm planning to make a full length linen one (probably with sleeves) once I know how much fabric I have (I have 5m of purple linen and will be using some of it for a Victorian Walking Skirt).
I really like all three of those styles, thanks for showing its versatility. Maybe I'll make something like that as a stashbust someday.
I bet that's a great party dress! Now I kind of want to make a mini-kirtle and do the same . . .
@@SnappyDragon Heh, as if you didn't have enough to do already.... but if you do have time, I highly recommend it, support garment but versatile! Can wear all kinds of shits under it and leggings would work if you wanted to wear it in colder weather than knee-length skirt is comfortable for.. Mine was kind of the prototype/proof of concept for the pattern based on Morgan Donner's tutorial. That was my first inkling that my measurements lie, lol
i really appreciate simply-constructed garments that show off the fabric and can be styled creatively
Me too! I'd rather just let the fabric shine than do lots of trim.
There's just so many simply constructed garments from warm weather countries due to the climate. When your outer dress is also your only dress, you need more of them meaning they need to be easy to construct. Same goes for outdresses with a slip that doesn't cover everything, leading to bare skin touching the outer garment. While this overdress wasn't touching skin, the right to wear one was restricted to married women. Meaning that plenty of fashion from the period involved dresses with nothing underneath, limiting the silhouettes and design elements that could become popular in the area.
Absolutly love this! ❤️.
Being big (I'm 6 ft tall) and muscular makes my historical choices quite small...so I accually love the roman-ish era when it comes to costume/party clothing.
(Everybody allways nag me to do late Iron age/early mideaval aka Viking era stuff and it's boooooooring.....I'm fed up.)
Roman stolas is easy and yeah looks good on my tall and quite rectangular frame (I have broad shoulders)...…and it let me show off my arms 😉
I am in favor of ANYTHING that lets one show off the arms!
The Roman/Greek version looks the most comfy. 💜
Definitely super comfy! I'd say comparable to the modern version, but since I had leggings and a camisole on under the chiton, of course it was.
@@SnappyDragon Have you ever tried Long Black Satin Gloves with your fashion styles ?
Loved this. When I was a young dancer I was notorious for throwing an outfit together for an event. It’s thrilling to accomplish so much with so few resources and so little time. Hope you have a wonderful time.
The whirlwind outfit planning can be kind of fun, tbh 🤣
Back when I did Dickens (left for the strike, not likely to go back), I got a great jacket for my character. That jacket is now my go-to cold-weather layer; and does well for looking nice when I need it.
Love a good Victorian jacket!
I’ve got a “fun” historical dress I made for a friend’s 20s birthday party. It’s a 1920s one hour dress drafted using a tutorial by the closet historian and another blog whose name I forget, and it’s made out of this stretch cotton (found in clearance) and is blue with palm trees printed on it. Think Jimmy Buffet meets the 20s!
That sounds ADORABLE. I am seriously considering seeing if I can style a 1920s version of this now!
That dark green is giving me life. I need it on a visceral level.
It's my favorite color for a reason
Love all three looks, and especially love that the Regency look is so period accurate with so little effort.
Here's to you feeling much improved, soonest, and to 2024 bringing you health, joy, and financial stability.
Thank you, and the same to you!
I'm glad you're feeling better.
As a small point of context the stola was the garment of the married Roman citizen woman, to the point that dressing a woman in one was used as court evidence that she was a freed and respectable woman.
It's also giving gorgeous art nouveau lady like the old ads they used to have with the flowy psuedo-roman dresses!
. . . I now have so many ideas for other time periods I could make this dress work in! And I do love those art-nouveau illustrations
My partner's grandmother gave me a dress she made out of a kimono roll with this exact construction. I actually disassembled it--which is also a real plus to this design, easy to reuse the fabric.
Nice! Yeah, I love pieces where the fabric stays in large rectangles.
It is so hard to recover from a lung infection. It took me 3 or 4 months when i had it. Luckily i could work from home, mostly because i caught the flu bug from my boss....
The stola looks lovely in all its options. My personal historical garment i wore everywhere including work was a victorian walking skirt. It gave me a butt to balance my boobs. No amount of cycling helped (daily to work, 45 minutes over a big hill) but that skirt with all its gathers at the back was genius.
It's been about three months since I first caught the cold, and I'm mostly back to normal. Finally able to exercize the way I like to again, which is good because my shoulders have been extra mad!
It's amazing what that little bit of gathering at the back of the skirt can do. I've taken photos in walking skirts over t-shirts, and still had an amazing shape!
Lovely❤
If you're ever in L.A. and want to fall down a rabbit hole of Greco/Roman fashion, The Getty Villa is a very cool place for that. Sometimes they have special exhibitions on various topics, The Getty Center has an excellent collection of other art for studying other elements of historical dress in other periods, and The Getty Villa has a fantastic gift shop that could accessorize that Roman outfit well.
I personally love the Regency one because I just love Regency fashion generally.
I want a life without chaos where engaging with your Discord server would be a thing I have time for.
I was there once as a kid! Mostly I remember being annoyed that my grandparents didn't understand I was old enough to stand close enough to the exhibits to see in detail while still understanding not to touch anything 🤣
i ran into a edwardian-ish adequate skirt and top. the skirt was from a thirft and the stretchy velvet with lace high-neck and yoke. its my edwardian history-bounding outfit. i like the pieces separately with other things
That sounds super stylish and super comfy!
That particular shade of green is my favourite colour 😻 I can’t decide which iteration of the dress I like best- they’re all beautiful!
It's my favorite also! I have to resist making *all* my costumes this color.
I have a dress like that in the making, to wear for a regency style! When I needed a bellydance costume cover up (like a kaftan or such) I decided on that dress to use for a fairly modern cover up 😁 still need to actually finish the dress though to wear it in regency style
You can do it!
I made a version of this dress for my work holiday party but left a small gap in the seam at exactly waist level so I can also thread the belt/ties through and have it cinched in at the waist in front but have it flowing and free in the back. It’s incredibly comfy that way!
Nice! I do love the look of this one with no belt also, it's something I'd wear as a swim coverup.
I think my favourite is that it can be worn in many different ways! Judging based on my own aesthetic preferences I liked the regency look best, because of the different distinct layers, but all looks are pretty! Very inspired to make something similar :)
I don't think I actually can pick a favorite, the versatility is the best part!
“Hare-brained costume nonsense” definitely describes the majority of my RUclips subscriptions 😂
Pretty AND flexible! And the crinkle silk may be less not-period than you think. The ancient Greeks had a fairly extensive period of art depicting women wearing very clingy, delicate clothing, often referred to as the "wet drapery" period, and this would fit well in with that, I suspect.
I bet they'd love it! But I don't believe the weaving methods used to make crinkle gauze were in use.
I made a Edwardian inspired waistcoat with matching skirt and petticoat, I've worn the outfit for end of school celebrations at winter, at home when it got cold and the waistcoat for numorus parties together with jeans and a black or grey shirt. Best thing ai ever made.
Waistcoat and skirt sets are one of my favorites! So versatile and wearable.
This came at the perfect time. I was struggling with what to wear for my new years parties especial since one of them is themed. I kinda wanted to make something but i dont have much time and Im on a fabric buying freeze until I get through several yards that have projects assigned to them. However this project seems very quick. And as I mentally flipped through my fabric stash a couple of possibilities shone through. One of my "Whole 30" fabric stash projects is a gauze regency dress I could temporarily commandeer that fabric and sew it in a way that i can easily reuse the fabric to finish the regency dress OR see if the loose weave wool i have could work as well. If so thats another few yards out of the stash that i hadnt even planned on.
I'm so excited! Time to get to work. Thanks so much for this video.
I bet it would look amazing in either fabric!
I'm so glad you're paying your moderators- I'm a mod for a gaming RUclipsr, and he barely talks to us, let alone thanks us monetarily. This just shows how good you are
For sure! I can't imagine not talking to my mods, but one of the reasons they are my mods is that they're also my friends and I trust them.
Anyone who willingly works with silk chiffon is either fearless or insane.
I'm not sure which I am!
I love the color! It really brings out your skin tones without white washing you. My favorite is the regency look. We don't really go to parties but my duaghter is getting ready to go to a formal dance. She has her hear set on a bustle gown. We're talking full on shelf butt here. Being as she is homeschooled and going to a homeschool dance she won't have to deal with the mean words that other kids might say. Homeschool kids are a differnt breed and more welcoming. Last spring we did a regency dress. Something we literally made from fabric from my stash and slapped together in about a week. She got so many compliments on her drss and even had one girl recognize the era. Can we say new bestie? This time we have a little more warning and can put the time into the tailoring of a bodice. I'm cheating a little and bought the corset, lobster tail and petticoat to give us more time to focus on the dress. The dance is on the 19th and the foundations and fabric I need are all due to arrive tomorrow. Let the sewing marathon comence. Help! Send chocolate!
I grew up going to dances at my local homeschool co-op-- we would have loved to see a bustle gown! Looking back on what I did wear to the yearly formal, I might have been historybounding before it was cool 🤣
Buying the foundations is what people in the 1880s would have done as well, so it’s not cheating.
I was supposed to be going to a New Year's Eve party that is a time traveler theme, dress in something from the past or possible future. But I have come down with the plague and will be spending the weekend in bed probably still trying to think what historical thing I would wear
Oh no! Wishing you soup and a speedy recovery.
I like the Regency look best. It is something that I would wear as a contemporary piece. I have plans in the future to make a stola from a shantung or raw silk. It will be a while as I have other projects in the works
I bet that will look amazing!
This is so helpful for me! I plan to go to a Regency ball next year but I'm a beginner and I want to wear something nice, not too basic, but not overly complex either. I think this is going to help out quite a bit, and I love the fact that it's multifunctional too! Thank you!!
Other perk of having a colorful overlayer : it means the details of the white dress underneath don't show too much! So it can be really plain, or maybe even a modern thrifted one.
You could even use it for the neo-Regency of the 1910s. All that is old is new again.
Quite possibly! I don't have anything from that period though, it's one of my least favorites 😅
You look amazing in all three. Hard to pick a favorite, the last one from the turn of the century! What’s your favorite?
I unexpectedly love the Regency version??? Regency is not usually my thing, but this outfit was so graceful. But I'm no less excited to wear the modern version to my NYE party.
So cute! I am really loving your modern party dress version. But I am excited that it can be used for regency. I think I need to make one! I am very curious about the discord. Also, thank you for working so hard to keep your spaces so inclusive and kind places to be.
Thank you 💚
I love the regency version and would totally wear that for any modern occasion
They all look fabulous on you.
Like so many others, I have some familiarity with both Regency and "Greco-Romanesque". As for personal aesthetics, the latter for me. But, the party one actually looks easiest to move in & most "breatheable", if the air circulation of a venue is an issue.
It's a partner dance thing, so being well-ventilated is absolutely a plus.
@@SnappyDragon this makes wonderful sense, then. I hope you have a lovely time🤞😀
I love all three looks! And that color is amazing on you.
Thank you! My IRL friends have started referring to anything in this color family as "Vi's green"
I can't say I have a passion for fashion, historical or otherwise, but your videos are fascinating.
I love them aaaaaaaall! You look amazing in all three!
You are bad for my project queue, Dragon Friend, but so good for my mood. 💚
I'm not sorry? 💚
@@SnappyDragon Nor should you be! I’ll send you pictures when I make one 😘
great vid! love your hair parted on the side in the RIP the fabric scene.
Thanks! I wear it that way most of the time, but a center part is more common for historical styles.
I like them all (beautiful green on you!), but probably the Roman stola look would win "by a nose"!
Thanks! This shade of green is absolutely my favorite.
Joining the Discord NOW! Yes yes yes ❤
Yesssss I can't wait to see you there!
I think you nailed it! It reminds me of when I was in college going to classics honors society events. I made a stola out of a bedsheet!
I just got my first sewing machine of my own for Christmas this year so I have been looking for a simple first project so I suspect that this is going to be my first period outfit that I will love to wear at my next dress nice party. Lol I might even make one to get married in since I love the Roman style and I can make it as fancy as I want depending upon what I use for fabric. I mean even Temu has beautiful lace fabric lengths with tons of beading and sparkle in all sorts of patterns and colors that would look amazing as a boho/romantic Roman style dress
This would be a great first project!
Very cool how versatile it is.
I really hope you might consider coming to Pennsic some year. This outfit (both the NY version & Roman) would be perfect, for night parties in the bog and daytime wear.
I really liked the modern styling best. I once made my own Roman inspired stola but only wore it as a costume. I should have tried it your way!
It's not too late to make another 😛
Love this. Roman is my fave look but I love the modern so much as it is simple, beautiful, sustainable. I wish practical and beautiful and simple would trend at some point. Ugly uncomfortable and complicated see to have a stranglehold.
Sorry to hear you were ill. Hope and 🙏for a healthier 2024 all round! ❤
That green colour is gorgeous and such a pretty gift your friend made you. I liked both the married Greek/Roman woman and the Regency. Will you be doing a video of you working on the belt? Even a short would be cool. Happy holidays 💞🇨🇦
I can try to do a Short on the belt! It might get a little boring, since I'm not an expert at tablet-weaving and it's a super simple pattern. Maybe for the next project, then I could get footage from the beginning of the process.
One of the fun things about the stola is that they were a very conservative garment-- but as the roman empire wore om and less and less upperclass women wore them, they became associated with sex workers of both sexes.
Oh fascinating! Paging @Faye Sterling, this is 100% their area of interest
Oh goodness! I’m glad you’re feeling better. That must have been a loooong three months.
It wasn't my favorite 😅
This whole thing is super! What a genius tri-look! I love it!
I love the partywear version the best, though the Roman one is a very very close second
I'm excited to see how many party-wear looks I can get by changing up the base layers!
Hope you're health continues to improve
Brilliant! I can't wait to try this with my own stuff!
glad you are feeling better
thank you! Me tooooo.
Wow! What a lovely dress. I'm so glad to see it alongside the gorgeous tablet weaving by Courtney. You deserve lovely sparkly things. 😊
Thanks SnappyDragon!
You look so wonderful, dragon friend!!
Thank you, Crow friend! 💚
We have the same menorah! Mine used to be my late mother's. :)
Oh wow! Mine . . . came from amazon, a lot of years ago.
@@SnappyDragon It's entirely possible that's where my mother got hers too. lol
Love your tree of life Hanukiah
Me too! As much of my Judaica as possible is tree-themed.
This is so beautiful and very versatile.
Thank you! TBH someone in another comments section asked if I was making a 1920s dress, and now I want to see if I can make this dress work for that too! Maybe a slip underneath and a belt at the high hip . . .
@@SnappyDragon That would be fun!
All three of those looks are fire, V!
💚🔥💚
Nailed it!
❤love all three …but the stole interpretation was my fave! Here’s hoping your tablet weaving adventure is completed in time 🥰
I'm pretty close to done! Just gotta find time between all the New Years' weekend parties. And baking for said parties.
* le sigh *
I wish I had somewhere nice to go for a New Year's Eve party...
I am also fully in favor of dressing up to stay in 😁
@@SnappyDragon My biggest issue is not having friends.
This is genius!!🥰🥰🥰
I'll have to find some crinkle chiffon on sale one of these days. Looks fun and i'd love to make something Fortuny inspired with it
It's from fabricmartfabrics! You can usually find cotton or rayon crinkle gauze pretty easily in most places.
@@SnappyDragon ooh! Thank you!!!!
Very nice! I like the Regency styling the best. I'm glad you're feeling better. ❤
Thank you!
I'm totally gonna make this for my graduation!
I was looking for an idea like this
Oooh that's gonna look so good!
@@SnappyDragon Yeah I hope so! I'll make it in white for the classicist vibe 😁
I really wanted a dress to wear with the roman Seni Crines hairstyle, this is perfect
I can't decide between the new's years outfit and the roman one, but they all look amazing 💚💚💚💚
I can't actually pick a favorite either 🤣
I like them all. Though if i were to wear it I'd probably pick either the Regency era one or the Ancient Greece inspired one. As for historical pieces that I love to wear to parties: probably my attempt at a Regency era dress or the 1860's reproductions of menswear or women's work attire. Saving up to get a reproduction of 1860's ball gown.
I love my 1860s ball gown! That was the piece of historical party clothing I was thinking of in the intro-- I almost had a chance to wear it in January, but there's a scheduling conflict.
@@SnappyDragon I do technically have a 1860's ball gown, but it's a cheap one. Saving up for a much more accurate one. Also the old one may not fit well anymore. I did wear it to a ball though. I had fun Swing Dancing in it. I wore a startched corded petticoat rather than a crinoline or hoop skirt.
Love the designs. 😊
Wow, that is a very beginner friendly project. I love the Roman style the most, but all three of them look gorgeous. You could also make this kind of dress in a fabric that is not see-through, right? In case you don't have such nice underlairs to make the dress shine. BTW, you look gorgeous in this kind of green.
You could make this in pretty much any fabric! I wanted silk chiffon specifically, but you could use a more opaque silk, wool, linen, cotton, anything you liked.
@@SnappyDragon Linen for summer and wool for winter it would be for me then. Yes I can see, why you chose this fsbric. It looks very festive.
I love everything about it 😍
This is very pretty! I love the Roman version the most. I miss shows like I, Claudius and Rome, idk why they don't make more. There are so many interesting periods of Roman history that could make for great drama. We never really see the *birth* of the Republic, I don't think there's any decent adaptation of Hannibal's shenanigans or the Gracchi, or even Marius and Sulla. Or the third century crisis. I'd even take a new Quo Vadis adaptation if it followed the damn book for once.
I would be especially interested to see an ancient Roman period drama now that we've gotten better about diverse casting!
Yeah! Rome was a huge city with people from all over the empire. @@SnappyDragon
Oh that's a great idea!!! I love the idea and the color!
I need to make this!!!
Yessss stolas for all!
This is so cool!
love it so much❤
*is literally wearing a red rayon tunica at this exact moment* 😂
[high-five!]
Is it weird that I saw your Inkle loom and knew exactly who made it (I have several from the same source)
Not at all!
Yay new dress and discord!
thank you! I feel like it should be some kind of joke : "which took longer, a fancy silk dress or a Discord?"
The outfit with the headwrap is my favorite! Also, where do you get your music?
Mostly from EpidemicSound
🎉
That shawl! How did you make that shawl?!
Modern version almost looks like you're about to do an adventuring LARP
I'll take it! I do love a good fantasy look.
Oh no. I hope you're feeling better.
How does the band on the waist stay in place when you sit and then stay again? Doesn't it move?
I love this idea and as a beginner I will definetly give thus a try!
It definitely does shift around a little. If the dress was made of a sturdier fabric, I might pin it in place, but not on silk chiffon.
@@SnappyDragon Little pins would look amazing for what I've got in mind. Thank you for the inspiration! AND: I could buy neat little pins now, I didn't know what to put on befor!
I don’t have one, but I have a weird skirt I don’t know. Did they get up for a petticoat though?
oooh, merge dragons! How are you finding the zomblin levels? (I got hooked a few years ago and am still very confused how it happened, but not mad.)
I haven't gotten that far yet 😅 I don't do in-app purchases for games as a rule, so that limits play time.
@@SnappyDragon Fair enough,I don't put money into games either. I don't remember how long before the zomblins show up. They're not hard though.
Should the viewers expect a "dress history of zombie goblins" video when you get there? ;)
I am interested in what pattern your tabletvweaving is.
The pattern is called "wyrms", from this site : mimbles.com/tablet-weaving/pattern-library/
@@SnappyDragon thank you
Yo, there’s a typo in your thumbnail. You forgot the “E” in your abbreviation of “Before Common Era.”
NOT FIRST!
i also sympathise with the infection and hope you are better.
is not first good?
@@SnappyDragon it is good if we decide it is
