    about thread colors-I worked sewing in an industrial setting, once in a clothing factory and once in an upholstered furniture factory, and we only had white, light gray, dark gray, black and beige thread. I buy large spools (I'm talking the large cones) in those colors and they work in at least ninety percent of my projects.

    I am delighted to know that I'm not the only one who sews in absolute chaos gremlin sing-along mode, haha. This turned out really well and I'd definitely love to see you do it again with planned fabric and maybe another walkthrough with the things you learned and/or changed from doing this one.

    If I hadn't watched this I wouldn't have know it was a bed sheet I love the pattern and I am a plain person for fabrics I have to really like a pattern before I buy it

    The Smeagol 'pockets' moment had me snorting my hot chocolate. Not pleasant or pretty. But damn, this was funny. I needed this. Thank you soooo much.

  • @camille_la_chenille
    @camille_la_chenille Год назад +6

    I cry-laughed so much at the Gollum "pocketses" moment, and again at the sing-along choas gremiln. I spent a whole afternoon crouching on the floor, cutting fabric and singing along (with impromptu dance breaks) some music, I felt very Gollum-esque in my posture.

    Hahahahaha "adult content"!!! I snortlaughed so hard I startled my cat! Adore the dress - and THANK YOU for making sewing less complicated, I am an aspirational sewer - I just acquired a pair of machines (plain sewer and overlocker from mum) and haven't made anything since highschool 25 years ago. You probably know this, but some people make it look so complicated, and I'm more like you, much prefer winging it!!! ❤

    Hey. It doesn't look like a bedsheet at all. It's gorgeous.
    Bedsheets have such nice designs these days, they make the best fabric deals - even when they are new bought. ❤

    Oh my goodness. Someone after my own chaos. Winging it and layering bobbin colors! I have found an easier way to gather though...

    • @JamieSchu81
      @JamieSchu81 Год назад +3

      I absolutely love this on you. I would need a much thinner collar as I almost have "no neck" and most collars make me feel like I'm choking. And maybe a smidge shorter.

    • @gettheetothestitchery
      @gettheetothestitchery  Год назад +5

      Thanks! This collar kinda made me feel like I was choking too... I usually avoid anything "turtleneck"ish cause the feeling is weird for me, but then I so often like the look of them!

    • @gettheetothestitchery
      @gettheetothestitchery  Год назад +11

      Oo okay, so I don't fully remember cause I was just winging it (are we surprised?) but I think I just cut off all the outside, rolled it in a mixture of brown sugar and cinnamon, plunked the whole thing in a pan, and baked it on 350 for like... well, that I don't remember at all, but probably like half an hour?

  • @svenjaj.3520
    @svenjaj.3520 11 месяцев назад +3

    Easy fix for the colored thread : 5 shades of gray and you're good to go. Choose your gray just a tad darker than your fabric. It will look like the right color, but just as if it were in the shade

  • @lynneclark5313
    @lynneclark5313 Год назад +3

    Nice dress! But I'm thinking about a hem that is shorter in the front so you don't have to carry it when you move.

    The final look is giving me Carrie Fisher vibes. Without the drugs, of course. Very cute. I may need to make this for myself out of a sheet with dead elastic, so it has become an ignored sheet on a shelf. 🧵🧵💕💕🪡🪡

    Gorgeous dress. I think an embellishment like a broach on the neck area would bring it out since it screamed “bedsheet” and should move that up nicely. 😊 Would love to make this dress.

    If your puppies feet smell, like Doritos, Cheetos, corn, chips, or anything else I have to recommend just taking a wet, wipe and cleaning your dogs feet. That smell is yeast and that means that your dog has an abundance of yeast and its little cute itsy-bitsy footsie’s. I use a wet, wipe and clean my dogs feet every single day because she sleeps with me and I don’t like the smell of Doritos my face of stinky feet 😁

    Some of (yes have more than 1-its chaos) my pups have had wood chip smelling paws.. we don't have wood chips anywhere for them to walk in. For me at least its the males that have that smell, may be random coincidence but my females don't have the smell. also YAY SPLOOTS!

    The Doritos smell is because of yeast overgrowth on the skin. Spray with 1:1 part vinegar and water. Allow to dry and then put coconut oil on them…. And I love your videos by the way.

    Frito Feet! Our wiener dogs have this. It's especially strong-smelling when they've been sleeping. It's caused by a combination of harmless bacteria and yeast.

    Oooh, what if for now since your low on space (Aren’t we all lol) since your sewing machine is on a bookshelf.. why don’t you DIY a “faux book” but really it’s a box for thread.. all the Colours of thread? Thrift an old dictionary and go to town with creativity! Do you have an Amazon store or wish list?

    If your pups feet smell like corn chips it's usually a sign of too much yeast, possibly infected.

    Delightful! It looks very pretty on you, I was wondering how on Earth you managed to keep your breasts up in it however! 😂 Tape for the win. I quite like the pattern on the sheets, the microfiber makes me hot and sticky just thinking about it however! I would love to see you have a second go round on this with fabric that you love. And pockets are space/time/reality twisters. Finally figured out pockets AND crotch gussets in my newest pair of bloomers and almost passed out with glee. 😅 Every member of my household had to be witness to the glory. 😂
    Thanks for being yourself! So glad I found your channel. Good luck with moving!
