  • Hello Friends!
    This video covers doing all of the small, but extremely time consuming, work that is finishing a bustle dress. I applied closures, fringed out my over skirt, added ribbons and tapes inside the garments to help them stay put, and then i used a hot knife to cut out appliques, which i then applied to the skirt of this Merida costume.
    This Historical Disney Cosplay is Merida and I will be doing it in conjunction with a bunch of my friends, who all wanted to do some cool Disney costumes together and see how they would turn out. We all decided to update our princess or villain of choice to our favorite eras, for the most part. If you have a historical Disney Costume, I would absolutely love to see it and post about it, so feel free to send it on over to me And I can add your Video to my Playlist!

    I'm highly introverted. I also am an employee of an "essential business", so I never really stopped going out and doing things(I work almost 50 hours a week). I would be happy to quarentine, but I have to make do with masking and distancing because I have to go in to work.
    I am relieved to hear that I'm not the only one that is angry at people. I have witnessed some of the worst selfishness and idiocy. It breaks my heart every day. I liked to think we as a nation would stand together in a crisis such as this, but I was so very wrong. 😢💔

    In New Zealand we are covid free, only cases in last 6 months have been border related, quarantined and controlled. Masks are worn on public transport and no where else. Last night there was a concert attended by 50 000, life is normal other than closed borders so no international tourism. Our vaccine rollout has barely started. Hope you have a great weekend away, and get to enjoy some normal life. That embroidery is stunning, so worth the effort involved

    I just got my second vaccine shot today. Once I'm two weeks clear, I think I'm going to be fine going to restaurants and theaters and seeing friends who are also vaccinated. For me it's never been as much about being afraid of getting Covid myself, I've always been much more worried that I would unknowingly pass it on to someone else. Now that I'm vaccinated, I'm very unlikely to do that, so I'm perfectly happy to start doing 'normal' stuff again. That said, I'm still going to mask up and social distance and all that good stuff, because the people around me have no way of knowing that I'm "safe", as it were. And I might just rock this whole mask thing going forward, because I definitely noticed that all of these precautions not only kept me from getting Covid, but I didn't get any colds or flu during this last year either. So maybe the mask can still help reduce the frequency of infection from non-Covid airborne pathogens. It's worth a shot, because colds and flu are super not fun.

    • @jeansando6849
      @jeansando6849 3 года назад

      One of my students asked me if I thought we’d still be masking next fall and I said I didn’t know (because I don’t) but I also said that I hope that putting on a mask when you aren’t feeling good or have a cough or cold would be a good thing. I Really Loved not having a cold this year even once!!

      @dianeshelton9592 3 года назад +1

      What people don’t realise is if as a vaccinated person you meet the Covid vaccine you can still catch it, even the Pfizer vaccine is only 95% effective. This means in the couple of days until your vaccinated body manages to produce enough antibodies to kill the the vaccine you can pass it on. Hence mask wearing will continue to be important. The vaccine does mean however you will not be ill with the infection, but it doesn’t mean you can’t pass it on to anyone unvaccinated and make them ill. Hospitalisation and death rates are vastly reduced with the vaccine so you are protection.

    • @playme129
      @playme129 3 года назад

      @ Siansonea Orande. Well said. But do continue to wear a mask and social distance. Vaccines are not 100% effective but do reduce effects if you catch it. And, it hasn't been determined whether or not you can spread C19 if you've been vaccinated. I received my second shot in mid March.
      It sure was nice not having a cold or the flu this winter.

    Almost my entire family and all my parent's friends are vaccinated, so my mom has started hosting a few dinner parties again, it's been very weird! Like it's almost too normal, everything is exactly the same as before but there's an undercurrent of "are we supposed to be doing this?" "Is this allowed?" "How am I supposed to act around these people? I don't remember"

    I feel so relived to be vaccinated. It is so nice knowing, going into summer in Texas that I will be able to also visit my friends that are vaccinated in the air conditioned indoors and not be so isolated. We have been out to a couple restaurants now that had good distancing and it's just been a really strange experience. I am enjoying all the pop up patio situations though, it still feels the safest. It's going to take me awhile to get used to it again.

    Gorgeous work! I really enjoyed watching this, especially the pinning of the bears, I think it really came together then! Covid has been hard for me and my family (we live in France and we're 6), I'm the oldest, got my masters last year, was supposed to be a teaching assistant in the UK starting last September and everything crumbled one day after my birthday last year bc of covid restrictions between FR and the UK. I got a teaching job in France, got depressed, almost unalived myself, got better, had a weird Christmas and my dad was ill, and we found out in January that he has cancer. I was already pretty strict about not going out and since the diagnosis dawned on us I haven't been outside. My brother and I were chosen to give bone marrow to my dad (because his leukemia is a very bad one, we could've lost him in January) and the surgery is next week or the week after. I've launched my Etsy shop and I have had no orders yet, I feel worthless tbh.
    I've been through hell when the covid situation seems to have gotten better for most people, and it's really painful to be happy for others when you're at your lowest. My mum's halfway vaccinated with Astrazeneca and can't get the other dose bc it's banned now for her, my 3 siblings and I can't get a hold of the vaccine to protect my dad (cuz Covid would kill him since he's done 3 rounds of chemo) and I honestly am scared and sad. But we're pushing through doing our very best, and I honestly cannot thank the costubers enough because I am a creative person and I crave all of this wonderful content to feel inspired and productive.
    Thank you Noelle, I think I get to see you more than I see important ppl in my life so you're kind of part of my weekly life and habits ahah! I like having your videos and LadyRebecca's videos specifically to look forward to every week, I get to hear about sewing and creative hurdles and see cats and dogs. Love you two very much 💕

    I have been doing all sorts of things rather than finishing the dress. Now, during edit, I have both finished the dress ( I still have to confirm that I caught even part of every seam, but I am calling it ready to use), and, I mended another dress.

Fairly obviously my favourite way to unwind after the work is a warm bath and a book (coot club by Arthur Ransome 1930s at the moment). Beyond that I pride myself on watching as much mountain biking as I can because my boyfriend is a bicycle mechanic who loves mountain biking.

Went to a funeral this weekend and found it very uncomfortable to attend the reception afterwards because no one in the extended family wore a mask. I’m not sure when it will feel normal again, or what normal will look like. Love the embroidery bears, but talk about labor intensive! You continue to be an inspiration. Thanks for these glimpses into your projects and your thoughts.

    This wool is still so lovely, it just makes me happy and makes me want to buys the wools for myself.
    The buttons and the button holes are lovely and satisfying AF. I bought a button hole chisel and some button hole twist/top stitching tread that I’m going to use to make jeans and hand sew button holes because my machine does not do buttoned holes well at all and I’d rather have the control of doing them my self.
    I hate going out and seeing people not wearing masks or not wearing them right...Utah has removed the mandatory mask mandate, I just got my second vaccine the other day but I still want to wear my mask when there are lots of people around.. few people that I know are safe is fine but people that get sick all the time and such is a nope...mask up...over the noes 🤦‍♀️

    She was saying. New sewists please remember that the sewing is only about 30% of the process.
    The othe 70% is fabric prep,pattern adjustment, cutting and finishing. With lots of ironing.
    She is quite right and this is why we seldom knock something up in an afternoon.

    I recognize that towel! My brother has the same one and it is about 20 years old now. Crazy to see that little piece of home in your video.
    Weirdness aside, I appreciate that you are taking the ridiculous amount of time to truly finish a project and show us. This is where my thesis is too and it is motivating to see you do the thing and know that I can do it too.

    Those buttons! That pattern matching! Ahh. So satisfying to behold!
    'You're Dead to Me' is one of my favourite podcasts. Nice to hear it is being appreciated in other lands! I'm listening to 'The Battersea Poltergeist' at the moment, which is another BBC podcast, but I'm a wimp and finding it a bit too scary! 😂

    Can't wait to see this complete, its going to be amazing!! I'm loving the bears, such a cute addition. I've also been watching The Nevers, and everyone is problematic... its part of being human. What you do after, fixing your past mistakes and not make them again and apologize for your past mistakes is what shows you're a good person and growing. No one is perfect. Now if you don't improve and make your apologize then you're a garbage human I have no time for. But happy thing, working with a friend to create a full set of Victorian underthings for an upcoming event in November... I'm so excited to have proper underthings for my bustle dresses.

    Those bears may be a lot of work, between trimmimg/cutting out and sewing on, but so worth it. They're a stunning detail on the skirt.
    Plus love your choice of buttons.
    I work in the hospital and won't be getting my second shot for a couple more weeks. That being said, we're solidly in the midst of third wave where I live so things have been shutting back down rather than opening up. Oh well, I have tons of sewing to keep me busy.

    Following up my quilters have the best tool belief - sewline glue pen are godlike, seriously a god made them and shared them with humanity. They are refillable, the glue holds lightly but doesn't come loose and doesn't mark. So when you're applying something like a fiddly seam or applique you slap this stuff on, and its a pen so you can be accurate, and adjust it into place and it leaves no marks or residue. It's for English piecing where you glue the fabric to a card shape to get specific shapes for quilting. I have about four of them and eight refills in my sewing box at all times. I was screaming at you when you were applying the bears.
    I'm currently reading the Kingdom of the Wicked which is great, and rewatching the Untamed on Netflix which i highly rec

    Can't wait to see the finished gown. Concerning vaccines, I'm fully vaccinated, as are three of the 5 others I live with. But I just go to doctor's appointments and the occasional shopping trip. When we have anything from a restaurant, it's usually delivery. We really don't have the money to go anywhere nor do we have a car, an essential part of going out, and Uber gets expensive after a while. My niece, who should be fully vaccinated soon, and their partner are going to Philadelphia, their home town, to visit friends in May. As for me, I'm making the Bootstrap Dress Form and will be starting to make a Natural Form gown as soon as that's done. I hope to have the gown finished by my birthday (Memorial Day weekend). But we'll see.

I haven't seen them since I put them on a plane August 1, 2019, so this Grandma is hurting for some spoiling time with the grands. I have followed the masking rule to the letter and I have an entire box in the car because you never know when one will rip. I am so fed up with those that just will not comply. This outfit is my very favorite, because Merida is my favorite Disney Princess! You did a wonderful job and I can't wait to see the pictures of you in it!! Have a great Sunday evening!

    Girl! Those bears! Those bears! They just boost the whole outfit so far into the super cool, neat, absolutely wonderful, I can't even! (***takes deep breaths and calms down***) I'm fully COVaccinated and have been since Feb because I'm in so many risk groups it's not funny. So a week ago, I went to the grocery store without a mask and it was so weird! but I did it. (I live in Tx and the whole state government in Tx are such completely irresponsible *(&^%@#$!oles, don't even get me started!) Anyway, can't wait to see the outfit on you in all your combined glory!

    Noel I do love a finishing session, it’s so satisfying. Love that you had to tidy your draw, I’m watching battle star again at this moment, I have a few shows I’m rewatching. I playing with the idea of half scale garments, I hope this will satisfy my craving to make historical costumes but will less space. Got to go to a fabric store the other day by appointment, like going to a candy store on my own and just me there (heaven), like I’m using small stuff up that I’ve stashed away for years (so satisfying) great for mindfulness and great for OCD 🤣🤣.
