    That you sewed so many seams while using the word “seamlessly” over and over again made me cackle each time. BTW, thank you for all you do in these “interesting times“ - the solace and joy in your artistry helps me slog through the horrific world around us. Hugs. 💜🖤💜🖤💜

    Truly, that silk does look more like Blue Morpho wings than it does Obi Wan's lightsaber. So shiny! I like the scalloped lace you chose, and the little sparkly spots from the sequins. Both of them add to the butterfly wing vibes.

    I know you have made a bunch of corsets and have a ton of experience but you make it look so easy.
    That is one of the most beautiful corsets I've ever seen.

    Omg that silk! 😍 What a gorgeous colour - it looks like a kingfishers feathers, or a butterfly as you said.
    That corset is STUNNING, you must be so proud of it!
    Best of luck with your life stuff Bianca 🤞 🤞 🤞 im sending you good vibes.

    Wow, this corset is stunning! I'm saving this video to reference back to once I'm ready to start my own corsetry projects. Your steps were so well laid out and clear, I feel like I'll have no trouble making my own!

    Best of luck house-hunting!

    Your end result is stunning and I’m OBSESSED with your fabric and embellishment choices. I agree with you in describing the fabric color. It definitely reminds me of Morpho butterfly wings. You’ve done a perfect job of creating your fit and shaping of your corset. Brava!

    What we really need is a line of silk fabrics inspired by butterflies and moths - this colour really is giving blue morpho! I never would have thought to add sequins on corset that is meant to be worn under all the fun Victorian layers but its such a good idea. That little extra sparkle is so pretty against the silk 😍😍😍😍

    @soozlillend Месяц назад +14

    Omg that fabric! So gorgeous. Let me share with you, in case you never heard of. My father's aunt, in the 50's was a ''chacrete'', a stage assistant to a brazilian TV show and i met her later in life, her house in Rio de Janeiro was very fabulous, for the 50's. (I was there in 2000's). One thing I've never seen before was the way she put a mirror on the top corner of the bathroom, opposite to the dressing table, so she could see herself in a ''the sims'' perspective, you know what i mean? Like a third person view from above. Anyway, as you drescribed triying to tie the corset i remembered that. Of course, hers was for the hair but you can then do whatever you wish with it. Good luck with the house!

    😊I just bought a few bulbs that change colour, so when you mentioned your coloured lights it made me grin from ear to ear.
    I just love that blue silk, you’re right it’s so much like that pretty blue butterfly. The colour shifting is stunning.

  • @paintingwithnicole
    @paintingwithnicole Месяц назад +8

    how absolutely stunning that looks miss bianca!!!! you have certainly been busy over the last few weeks, and oh boy was this such a treat to watch!! Corsetting videos are always my favorite, and you make it look so absolutely effortless (my half finished first attempt at a corset looks nowhere near so good, but i guess i should just rewatch your videos again before i pick it up again haha) LOVE the fabric---I had no idea the obikin silk looked so pretty in person! (though i do love that they named it obikin because that does mean that someone on their team ships anikin/obiwan, and i find that fantastic lol) and that lace! i always find nice lace to be some of the hardest stuff to find, but yours suits the corset so delightfully and matches the flossing so beautifully

    Don't know what they're called in english, but there's a wonderful kind of lamp we call a moonlight lamp here. They're made of colored glass (usually pink, blue, green, or white), and have a lightbulb inside. I think they're originally from the late 19th and early 20th century. The light is wonderfully soft, and comfortable.

    A uranium glass black light chandelier sounds like an awesome idea! Would be a fun project - maybe one could be made with glass shards from uranium glassware…? 🤔
    The iridescent shades of that fabric are gorgeous! And the shape of the finished corset is perfect, so sharp and dramatic. Love it!

    • @sewcute_sewvintage
      @sewcute_sewvintage Месяц назад +3

      I think the price point of uranium glass, the safety reasons, and the way collectors would harass a person would dissuade most people from this.
      But with wire wrapping like jewelry of dishware and the restringing of beads I bet something could be done. Then it's just the price point

    • @creepycutiecrafty
      @creepycutiecrafty Месяц назад

      @ there’s probably an awful lot of broken glass out there already, but as you say, probably in museum or private collections. I’m guessing that at the time uranium glass was popular, black lights weren’t yet in common usage so a contemporary chandelier is unlikely.

    This is absolutely beautiful. You've outdone yourself with the vibe here. The background music is a lullaby. I slow down the playback to .75 and this absolutely beautiful to drift to sleep with. I just needed to comment how beautiful this corset came out! When I have the space, eventually when we move from rental, I am going to ask for a sewing machine. You've been such an inspiration to my crafts over the years, like a craft buddy. I hope your house hunt in New England is working out! I've seen some cute homes go for sale in South Hadley, MA under 300k. Enfield, CT also, but I don't know Enfield so well.
    I hope you have a beautiful holiday season ❤❤

  • @bunhelsingslegacy3549
    @bunhelsingslegacy3549 Месяц назад

    That is so beautiful. And of course led to the exclamation, "Where the F can I buy hip spring like that..."
    The dress you were wearing was stunning too, and now I'm thinking, "how would Bianca work her dart wizardry to make that lovely one-shoulder gather?" and am thinking it out LOL.
    Yeah, I know, padding. And poofy dress to hide the padding. So instead I've decided my next project is a ridiculous lab coat for soapmaking where it's actually going to be the mockup for a Victorian jacket I want to draft to eventually make to go with my Victorian Walking Skirt I made in spring. Complete with ridiculously poofy sleeves.
    And I hope your "waiting phase" settles out some of the dust and results in the house of your dreams (cause I'm assuming you've found somewhere you like and am crossing all the fingers and toes that will cross for you!), or at least something somewhere tolerable and within budget that can eventually be the house of your dreams.
