- Secret Sewing CHALLENGE! In this week's video, I paired up with Jennifer from A Vintage Vanity to do a secret sewing challenge.
We sent each other a mystery box of vintage fabric, a pattern and vintage notions, and we were only allowed to use what was INSIDE each box. I was sent a 1950's vintage sewing pattern (McCall's 5471, bust 40"), some modern Joann's tree print cotton, a polyester zip and vintage notions. Come with me as I show you how I make a vintage dress from this exciting vintage mystery box. I will show you how I made this dress and tips to avoid making the same mistakes I did.
Vintage pattern used: McCall's 5471
Fabric: Joann's
Notions: poly zip, vintage button and vintage belt buckle.

Lol, I got genuinely excited for that subscription box for a hot second.
You know, I am thinking about doing a few limited releases, since I have SO much in stock.
Haha, me too!
@@StephanieCanada a mystery sewing sub box is...on point for how I want to spend my money. Just saying.
@@StephanieCanada yes!!!! That would be amazing
I would LOVE that!! Take my money Stephanie!!
I cannot tell you how much I love how this dress looks on you!!! You did an amazing job!!!
I had to leave some suspense for you! 😉
You picked an amazing fabric!
@@lauracarrier6158 Thanks! I'm so glad I took a chance. I kept going back to the fabric and finally said trust your gut! I may also have said who doesn't want to look like a gorgeous walking painting! ❤️
You're adorable I'm going to subscribe because of this collab ❤
@@AllTheCloudsArePink aw...thank you so much! It was such a fun collab and Stephanie is so fabulous to work with!!
I love how you always seem to make a dress out of all the mayhem.
Aww thank you so much! And my partner can attest that every sewing project is the same way.
BAHAHA this is the most accurate description of Stephanie's (extremely enjoyable) sewing videos ever and I love it.
You always say not to notice the mess but I love it. My house looked the same for years and I was shamed for it. I had little kids and a full time job. Actually, it doesn't seem to make much of a difference how old the kids are😂. I don't come here to see your house. I'm here, because I enjoy your content and your no fear of house mess and lack of makeup. It's super refreshing.
That pattern is to die for - like a painting by Monet! 😍
Right! I loved the pairing! Jennifer did a great job!
There was a legit SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!! coming out of the house that the neighbors heard when she opened it!
Finally found the origin of the awesome green tree dress! Love this pattern and the fabric choice so much
It’s such a perfect dress for the Flower and Garden Festival! It was so great to run into you there. :)
It was such an absolute pleasure meeting you too! Sorry I was a complete doof about it. It is still hard to understand that folks could recognize me.
I want to thank you again to A Vintage Vanity for doing this super collab with me. Check out her video here: ruclips.net/video/8LjKILt0z34/видео.html
Vintage sewing and Loki? You have made my ANZAC Day holiday!
That will be that next "make and watch" for SURE!
Yes! A Vintage collab for the ages!
Thank you so much! It was a blast!
dangit! 🤣stop trolling me i got so excited!
"I think I blew snot out my nose" OMG.
Ms. Green and alllll.
Yup. Real life baby
Miss Green was SO LOVELY!!! No one would ever guess! Love this pattern!
Thank you so much Michelle!
Ms Green what a joy this was
That fabric is gorgeous, looks like a garden
I love that I’m seeing this particular show. That green is my favorite dress I’ve seen I wear. So
Cool
Hello! Here from A Vintage Vanity.
I will sit through anything for ..... sigh Karl Urban sigh ..... all is forgiven. 😁
Ms. Green 👍
Us Vintage Vanity folks have good taste...sigh...Karl Urban but also...sigh...Tom Hiddleston
Thank you!
Ms. Green. And you look darling in the dress!
Thank you so much Elizabeth!
Absolutely love Ms Green! And that dress is fabulous!
Thank you so much! And it really has become an immediate favorite.
Hey Ms. Green, love your chaos, found you after your colab with The Stitchery ☺
You are a Hulk Hogan Rebel with that cotton fabric! Lol!
Ms. Green! Had a couple giggles 😃
Ms. Green 😂😂😂 great video Stephanie, that dress is lovely on you.
Thank you so much Eleanor! I do really enjoy it.
If anyone fell in love with the cut of the black dress towards the beginning of the video like I did, it's a Trashy Diva brand dress in the Cage cut! That style dress is no longer available on their website but I'm seeing a decent amount available secondhand online. I immediately purchased one so I can take it apart, convert it into a pattern, and make my own in a fabric I love!
From the title I thought it was gonna be like, sewing from a pile of loose pattern pieces with no instructions or pattern envelope, and I was excited for the pure chaos of that concept. This was really fun too, though!
Love the fabric she sent you, just beautiful.
That dress turned out absolutely beautiful. I love love love the pattern and the fabric, and it looked awesome on you.
Miss Greene. Loved your Clue series!
Thank you so much Sheri! That means the world to me.
I love your Starship Enterprise shirt! Live long
Thank you so much Christena!
Miss Green would love that dress!
You looked positively lovely! Great job on your dress!
Thank you so much! It really did turn out great!
love the fabric...it is something I would get..dress is fantastic. the like to the other lady is coming up as private for me.
Hers is coming soon! We went to publish together and hers came up with an issue and mine was already live. Should be up in about an hour!
Ms Green, your creation is so perfect! Thanks for Sharing with us. Greetings from East Orlando!
You looked so gleeful tearing the fabric, lol! Loved this whole project.
Oh it was glorious!!!
Yes, heat resistant tape like they do when holding down vinyl on a T-shirt, etc. Then you can iron right over it when you iron your copy of the pattern and put it away.
Miss Green in one of my favorite places!
Lovely work and to see Ms Green was chef's 💋
Thank you Lauren! And I tried to be sneaky about it.
Fabric is called Magical Forest Premium Cotton on Joanns if anyones wondering
Oh thank you! I meant to hike my skirt up and check out the name (seriously because I left all the selvedges).
Wow! What a perfect dress to wear to the garden show!
Thank you so much Cheryl!
I LOVE your "stupid" intros! Keep up the great sarcasm😆
That's beautiful Ms. Green.
I love the dress... and perfect stop at the garden.
I'm going to be on the hunt for this pattern now for sure! Nice peek of Ms Green and love the Star Trek shirt.
Seriously I would sub to this box! That's amazing
Thank you Krista! I am thinking about it, but it would be very limited as I am only one person doing all this. 😂
Miss Green
That dress looks great on you!
THAT INFOMERCIAL AT THE BEGINNING THO OMG
I would 100% buy a secret sewing box, not gonna lie. Maybe not for $999 a year tho bahahha
Thanks! I am thinking about doing a limited option for that service.
I'm a lifetime member of that club... It's a hilarious infomercial, lol. I love it.
Thank you so much Nina!
@@StephanieCanada I would totally be up for a project like this! Sew many patterns, sew much fabric, sew little time...
Ms. Green that is a beautiful dress!! I love your energy and enjoy your videos so much.
I would love to have copies of the old patterns, like take the pattern and draw it on the pattern fabric and bam you got a another pattern
I really want that Carousel fabric though. Haha
Love this dress and the skirt is twirlific....
Love the under color thingy you did. I may do that to jazz it up a bit!😜
Watched, and now I need to see the collaboration video :) Ms. Green
I saw you wearing this dress in another video and I thought it looked really cute！ So this dress was born from a challenge, great choice and execution !!
I Love your Star Trek shirt! I actually made a Corset of the same material back in 2019 and wore it to a Star Trek Orchestra Show
I am not sure how I am just finding you, but I am so glad I did (Ms. Green). You are 100% my people. I was hooked when you said NO to makeup. Now to go through and see what I have been missing.
Aww thank you so much Bobbi! That is very kind of you. Yeah, sewing is already challenging... no need for extra blockades to getting going.
You should obviously do this its brilliant
The secret sewing box? I am actually thinking about it.
I am in love with this material and the pattern. Wow girl you did that pattern justice. I love your channel you make me laugh all the way thru. Thank you.
Thank you so so much!🥰
Hi Stefanie, when you wash the fabric do some vinegar in the water and the colours will stay., you maybe already know this trick, but there it is anyway.
Thank you! I did indeed know that, but still forget to do it most times.
Mystery solved for me (the source of that awesome green fabric). She mentions you sew with vintage sheets? Interestingly, my first thought when I saw you in this print in another video was "I don't remember Burlington making that pattern".
Ms. Green will be my new title. I love greeens, the vegetable too, but mostly the fabrics :-D
AMAZING! I love it!
Ms. Green, please meet Ms. Ruse. Loved the dress, and impressed you managed pockets. 🌿🌴🍃💚
The pleasure is all mine Ms. Ruse. Thank you for hanging out with me.
Ms. Green! Very cute! What a fun way to help our friends push each other out of our comfort zones!
I thought so too Robin! Thank you for watching.
Just love the sarcasm! However, your sewing is getting better along with checking the instructions - even after the fact.
Thank you so much! Yes, I do usually read the instructions, but my last sewing project was "using a pattern without instructions" and so I may have forgotten that I was allowed to look at them.
What a fun swap
Great dress Miss Green. I love watching your vintage channel.. you inspired me to make a Christmas walk away dress. That was fun.
I loved the dress, but I want to see you do the belt.
Miss Green love it
I laughed all the way thru this video!!! Love your quick wit!!
Two of my favorite RUclipsrs . ❤️That dress turned out fabulous Ms. Green. I love the dress. I’m going to head over to Jennifer’s video to see her results. Best duo ever.
