    Oh this is beautiful! I love the deep red colour. The sleeve ruffles totally make this piece go from austere to delightful.
    And yes I yelled at the screen "no it won't work, no, no " when you were talking about the sleeve ruffles.

    I really appreciate the diary style you do for these videos. It is very helpful as a less skilled sewist to see you work through your challenges instead of give up. I admire how open you are about what goes wrong and how you fixed it.

    It looked stunning with the snow and so very cozy. Absolutely love that shot red colour. Have to admit I had a good laugh at your hood mobius stripe siutation. Don't you love it when things turn out so weirdly and you have no idea how you got there. Plus your tossing of the ruffle because you were just over it was so very relatable. Glad your stuck with it through all the ups and downs on this project, the end result was so worth it.

    Milady looks like she just stepped out of her carriage to take a quick stroll about the garden, before heading inside her manor house. It was good to be home after spending some time in the city. She gracefully climbed the stairs, greeting her household as she went. Once inside, she stood, warming herself by the fire, and issuing orders to her butler. The holidays drew nearer and nearer and she had a party organize. She dismissed him, and ringing for her lady's maid, she had her draw her a bath. Looking forward to relaxing and soaking away the cares and frustrations of the day, she followed her maid upstairs to her boudoir...
    Happy holidays, Lady Rebecca!! Your Brunswick is gorgeous!! Sorry about the grief it gave you, but I think it was worth it after seeing the end result!! (And you are sooo LUCKY you got snow!! I feel like all my snow went on a trip Buffalo and stayed there. 😉)

    Dora is delightful. Reminds me of a friend's cat that loved pins and learnt to take them out of fabric and run lol. We'd stop for coffee and come back to find we hadn't shut the door properly and all our pinned items were no longer as we had left them. Never found the majority of pins either. You have been warned. Once those pins are uncomfortable Dora may well learn a new trick.

    I tried to find a comment about this, but there are just too many comments. For the circular cartridge pleated portion of the hood that leaves a hole, I think you can close the hole by inserting a gathering stitch that takes just the very tips of the outside pleats, taking up literally only the single outermost layer of the fabric (no batting, no lining or extra layer). The issue seemed to cause you a ton of frustration, so I hoped to be able to help for future projects. My apologies that I do not use instagram and for my late commentary. Your brunswick turned out gorgeous! The silhouette and color are extremely flattering to you. Thanks so much for plugging away at it and sharing with us all of the trials and tribulations involved in the making.

    Instead of chasing the bias tape with the iron what we usually do is put the iron down and pull the tape out of the bias tape maker and the iron so that way it automatically gets ironed as it's pulled if that makes sense.

    Dora on the book-hanger-fabric-pin combo is the most cat supuuuuurrrrrvisory move ever. I think it’s a rule in their management manual. I wish the comments allowed photos because one of my favorites is my Ozzy sound asleep, happy as a little clam, on what was probably 50 pins on a piece that required very intricate construction, hence the large number of pins. Like you, I asked him, “How is that even comfortable?” And, like Dora, he didn’t answer. So I guess the mystery continues.

    I am so happy for you! The snow, the dress, the color! I love history coming to life! It snowed for your photo shoot! Yay! I think I need to learn how to make stays so I can get that same silhouette. I wasn't sure if I would ever want to make that jacket after seeing how much frustration you went through, but seeing the end product kinda makes my possible frustration with my own project seem worth it if I can end up with something that gorgeous! Likely not out of silk, sigh, but out of a beautiful quilted fabric.
