A word about late 40s early 50s fashion. Most coats,clothes, ect had extra ease built into the patterns because times were tight. Fabric, for example was still being rationed in England up to the mid 50's. Of what my grandmother and great grandmother told/taught me (having been a wife and teenager during the era) they grew up in the Great Depression, Use it up wear it out, was still very much the prominent mentality. Wide coats and extra fullness in tops,skirts and trousers let a wardrobe go through thick and thin. (Pregnancy,ect) without becoming useless.
As an interesting aside, trousers were perfectly acceptable lounge or work wear. However, no lady got dolled up for an evening and went out in pants. My grandmother wore dresses out till her dying day because wearing pants was a sign of being low class and poor when you were in town.
Thank you for sharing, I found this interesting.
My mama was of that generation too and she would never wear pants into town either. She never wore the color red as it was apparently scandalous, but was seldom seen without red lipstick. 🤷🏾♀️ She made all our clothes and she always made very deep hems. When my pants were too short she’d add a kick pleat and a border of extra length or sometimes ruffled bottoms.
That is interesting and makes sense.
Good restaurants wouldn’t sit a woman wearing pants. In Paris this was up to the ‘70’s. Catherine Deneuvue did a model add for Givenchy (or YSL?) and she was wearing a ladies tuxedo and it was a bit scandalous. I’ve seen bits about it on some vids about couture. I don’t know when it became acceptable here. I remember as a kid in the 70’s changing to a skirt or dress when we went out. So I’m guessing about then here as well, but it’s a guess. My family grew up with use it up as well. Clothes that didn’t fit during part of pregnancy was considering a luxury.
most older women wore “house dresses” when home even up to the 1970’snwhen other women were in slacks and peddle pushers (capris). Now at age 69 I appreciate the practicality of dresses once I discovered how gentle on the back the dress is over pants. Severe spinal arthritis is a fact of life for many of us and waistbands with any structured waistband, no matter how loose, hurts when bending or just getting through the day. I have also made some fold over fabric waistbands for a couple pairs of pants and those work but dresses are my preference as they were for my grandmother and aunts.
Hoods on coats is highly underrated! So so happy to hear that Posie is cancer free 🥰
So true!!! Love me a hood!!!
The bat collar gives me life. Spooky season shall never die!
Hell yeah, new bottle of Fancy Christmas headed my way thanks to you ;p
When we adopted my dog, we were told she had been spayed and treated for GI parasites. She had a spayed tattoo and a shaved area. First, we found out she had additional GI parasites that hadn’t been killed off, then - once she was getting the nutrition from the food she ate, instead of the parasites - we realized she had mange mites. We treated the mange, and then our “spayed” dog went into heat. Turns out she had been prepped for surgery been somehow missed in the assembly line style of surgeries at the shelter. Six months later, we found out she tested positive for heart worm, which she most likely had the early stages of when we adopted her. FINALLY, after that, there were no more medical issues. She is a very good dog, but boy was her first year with us wild!
I'm sad to read this but so happy that the dog find a way to you and your family since you guys obviously made everything to heal her. Thank God for people like you? Stay safe and be well. 💕🙌🙌🙌😇
You may not have succeeded at hitting your 24 hour target, but you are still amazingly fast! I’m loving your vibrant hair colour lately too - so cheerful for the dreary end of a dreary year!
glad to hear that Posie is cancer free! Give her a scratch from me.
And a hug from me. I'm happy she's OK 🙏💕
Florida loves Posie! Hope she makes a complete recovery. How about making matching Valentine’s outfits for the two of you?
Yay!
I had a very similar experience to yours with Posy: I adopted Lilla when she was about 6, and she had already had one side of breasts removed, but within a few months she had more tumours and had to have the other row removed ... in the meantime, she ALSO went into heat within a month of me adopting her (although they had told me she was already spayed... not their fault: they were just repeating what the previous owner had told them) so when she had the tumours removed she also underwent a full hysterectomy. And, like you, I had to carry her up and down the stairs for two weeks so she could go out to do her business - and I live at the top of a medieval building in Italy, so no lift, and lots of wonky stone stairs!
BUT, long story short, that was nearly six years ago, and she has had no more cancer problems apart from some small, non-malignant skin "lipomas" (fat lumps), and is still living happily ever after with me, and still cuddling up to me every night under the duvet!
I hope you and Posy will have many, many happy and healthy years together, and bring each other happiness and comfort.
Now, before I forget - this is the cutest coat ever!! I want it! And you are looking absolutely lovely and christmassy too, with your green hair: all you need is some baubles and tinsel, and you would look like an xmas tree-fairy! Happy christmas to you and yours. best wishes, k
You have so much patience! I’m a beginner sewer and just watching these videos wears me out haha There’s so many steps and pieces to keep track of. I’m always in awe of how you work. You’re fast but everything stays so neat and precise and you also some how manage to film it all and make a tutorial out of it. 🤯 It’s hard to believe that this content is for free!
I’ve gone cross eyed
Ok that dress in the beginning with the bats on the collar is amazing and I need to make one IMMEDIATELY ♥️
Right?? Maybe you’ve seen these around but you can even make collars like that separate from a garment and fasten them by tying in the back. So you could sew up a collar like this with a simple white woven cotton and sew on some black bats as an appliqué really quickly and then add it to any outfit
Aka what I plan on doing immediately lol
I love that coat you look like a porcelain doll in that coat you’re so beautiful but I think I would attach the hood to the back because I’m all Thumbs I would lose the hood for sure after raising six kids I’m real good at attaching gloves and hoods😊
me toooooooo
I NEED this collar!
Thank you! You said something amazing that finally gives me hope. I struggle with written instructions. I'm 100% a visual learner and I'm always so discouraged with my abilities because I read through instructions and struggle to visualize without having the fabric in front of me. I'm so happy to know that you're the same way and your still able to create amazing things!
Same here! I get sad when there isn't a video tutorial for a pattern i want to use because im really bad at understanding written instructions.
I am so relieved to hear Posey is cancer free! Can’t wait to see her pop up in more future videos! ❤️
That coat is amazzzing. I want this in a cranberry colour so I can live out my not-so-little red riding hood fantasies.
I am so happy for you that your little girl is cancer free 😍. I had cried when you spoke about it. I wish you and your family all the best for the next year. If I am sad I look your Pennsylvania videos. I like them so much because it is summer and all the things to see and a lot of fabric 😂. Thank you so much for your videos 💝
So glad your puppy's test came back with good news! This was such a cute fabric, and i really love the hood.
Hi Angela, are you following Alex Archbold( Curiosity Inc) on RUclips? He's bought the contence of a hauders house and he's uncoved hundreds of sewing notions and hundreds of patterns from the 20s/30s all the way up to through the 80s.there all going up for auction with kasner auction house. You've got to give him a look see.
I follow Curiosity Inc. also. I'm in awe at the amount of Vintage clothing that they're recovering.
I stopped following him because he was making jokes about Mexicans and trucks. It kinda sucked because I had liked his channel.
I reached out to him on Facebook mentioning Angela for the patterns too! Would be great if they could be in contact about that!
@@witchvideofly If the Mexicans laugh, who cares??
@@MegaMagicdog Because not everyone, even today, has the safety and social security to not laugh and/or to call some one out for being a jerk, especially someone with a large following of loyal fans who might get upset about that and turn on them (we've all seen that happen elsewhere, sometimes to horrifying effect). So the targets of the "jokes" laugh instead so as to not draw even greater negative attention to themselves. It's called "appeasement" and it's a huge part of de-escalation as a survival behavior. It's also something you'll find everywhere being used to excuse racism, sexism and all the other 'isms' that involve power dynamics as being "okay" because "everyone's laughing, right?"
What a beautiful coat & you did a marvellous job! Very glad the doggie results came back clear. What a worry! Looking forward to the next 👗 💕
Vintage Slytherin ❤️
Thanks for the video and the update on Posey. It was wonderful to know she is cancer free! The coat is stunning. I'm going to miss Coatmas! Merry Christmas!!!
I’m so happy about your dog being cancer free!!! Love your coatmas feature and this coat is a beauty!!!
Love listening to you. I don't sow...yet...but seeing your process issues and all are great file away knowledge.
Joyous to hear your fur baby is doing well and the surgery was successful. Glad to see she is a rescue.
Coatmas is my favourite thing this holiday season, thank you for sharing!
It looks so close to a picture of my mom in the 60's with us kids. Love it!
This is my favorite coat you made this year. And it looks great on you!
The button detail by the neck 😍 swoon ❤️ beautiful coat, great job!
I love adopted dogs! We just adopted an American Bulldog mix 3 weeks ago. He’s sweet but he’s deaf and has seemed to have very little training. Adopted dogs can be a lot of work, but worth it! Glad she’s cancer free now.
Loving the coats! So beautiful!
This is theee best way to insert pockets! I actually learnt this from my grandma who was I seamstress. When I sewed my first pair of pants (from a 40s pattern) I did it they way the instructed me to and I was just a nightmare.
I wish you a lovely Christmas time! 🎄
What a beautiful and luxurious coat! I love the swing! Some buttons to attach the hood is a great idea. So glad your doggie is well!
Congrats to you and Posie! So glad to hear that. And the coat is stunning - that fabric is glorious.
To me the way you did the pocket seems to be the most logical way, that's how I've always done side seam pockets lol
you look gorgeous in that coat!! great job, and i am totally impressed that you were able to make this coat in less than a month, which is how long it would take me. thanks for the Posey footage, and yay for the good news!
When clothing is comical, you know it's going to be good!! Also yay fantastic news about Posie!! We're so happy about that, and can't wait for more Posie content too, as well as sewing/accessory/hair color adventures. 😃🐶😍🐕🤩
I absolutely ADORE this coat! It looks like what my dreams are made of.
Your look in the intro is a good mix of Christmas meets Halloween and I am here for it! 🔥🔥
I love coatmas! Merry Christmas!
Oh yes! So glad to hear that Posie has the all clear! Wonderful news!
And also, a wonderful coat! It’s fab!
I love how your hair matches exactly, makes the antique style look so futuristic!
Such a lovely coat and it looks so warm. It was great to see it go together.
It is wide but then it will go over anything. Love it!!
Thanks so much!
I love this one! You worked wonders getting it done in the time frame you did. I think the hood is my fav part. Gorgeous!
Just started the video, but your whole look in the intro is perfection!💚💚💚
Fantastic coat. All the very best for the new
I have a 18 year old cat. I am such a cat mom that when I found he had arthritis in his hind legs at 12 years I went and bought small step stools and a pet stair case. Best way to make sure he can get to his high spots. Hope this helps.
I love how the nails and jewelry matches the fabric. ☺️
i thought there was a HUGE hairball on the cutting table but your hair is green and finally I realized that it must just be black thread. It took me too long to figure it out lol
Birthday present upload of continuing CoatMas, yaaaaaaayy!!
Thank you for the Posey update, too. Glad she's doing better!
Amazing video! I love this coat so much and the matching hat and hair is so cool!
Looks sooo greattt!!! Good job!’
This coat really is delightful!! 😻😻
I love this coat so much! Fantastic work.
Just love your work. Thank you for pursuing your passion and allowing us to journey with you.
May your Season be happy and bright.
Love the button placement in the collar!!! Such a beautiful coat!💗💗💗
You are so talented! I love the coat and fabric choices!
So happy to hear about your dog!!!
Now this is a really lovely coat! Green is my favourite colour.. so I love how you colour coordinated everything. :-)
turned out lovely!!
You are brilliant! I have been having serious pocket issues with a pattern and you have solved it and saved my sanity. Thank you for your wonderful videos and all the best with Posie.
Gorgeous fabric, can't wait to see how it turns out :) If you manage to make it in 24 hrs I will be gobsmacked!!
Absolutely in love with your 2020 Christmas green obsession ! Thank you for the video u did great ❤️
Great video and lovely coat. You explained everything really well, thank you!
Thank you Lovely coatmas, good news about your dog too, stay well, stay safe and keep smiling
Beautiful coat! And so glad your pup is ok. I love beagles!
I am really loving this everything green thing you've been doing lately. That combo of your rings and nails is just *chefs kiss*. I also love that you fill your brows in green.
Aaaand loving this. I learn so much from watching you and from last coatmas to this coatmas mu sewing has gotten so much better and i dress up my dog too now! Thank you for sharing and so happy your little nugget is better!!!
Glad your dog is doing so well and I like the coat a lot
Beautiful coat, beautiful, talented girl, and a happy, healthy fur baby! Merry Christmas, Angela!
Gorgeous project and I love the beautiful shot of Posey enjoying some treats! She’s gorgeous and what a lucky girl to find such a loving home and person to take care of her!!
That collar closure is to DIE for. I have a vintage swing coat pattern in my size that I’m waiting for the perfect fabric for. I love this on you!! Not sure why I haven’t gotten around to watching your videos before - but you’ve gained a new subscriber in me!
Love the coat and the hood is great! And, the hat...fab.
You look stunning in this coat! I do love it. Thank you for the update on your sweet puppy.
Thank you for another amazing video of fashion delight you motivate me to be the tailor of my dreams, so happy that your Posie is safe and Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 🎁
Girl!! You are amazing!!! I love your videos!!
Lovely coat - the hood really makes it!
Love your hair colour! It really motivates me to see you make a coat in such a short amount of time. My own coat project feel overwhelming and like it would take months. But really, a coat is not that hard. It is just a lot of fabric involved when I have a knee length pattern and there have to be fashion fabric, interlining and lining.
What a beautiful coat; your skills are just amazing. Glad to hear Posie is in good health!!!
You’re amazing., merry Christmas
Every year, one of the most exciting things that happens in fall and winter is anticipating what beautiful projects Angela is going to make. Genuinely a wonderful part of Halloween and Christmas.
I just found this channel and love it. You are so talented!
Oh, that’s such a great coat! Amazing what you did in a day!
great news about your dog.I hope your keeping well.Loved the coat
i'm so happy that your doggo is fine 🥰👌🏻
i absolutely adore the color of the coat 😉
I love your whole look for the intro and outro clips! So cute 😍
Also this coat is wonderful, I love the pattern!
I really enjoyed this coatmas, I am inspired to try making a coat. I wish I could get the advance pattern because it looks great. Good call on the pocket sewing, that's how I do mine now regardless of the instructions. I am thinking a brown wool plaid. Your makeup is phenomenal, especially the eyes. And your nails are really nice.
I just wanted to say first, your whole look in this video is adorable (the color looks great on you!). Second, so glad to hear your pup is cancer free, that must be the best relief just in time for Christmas! Lastly, I loved all three coats this year, I learned something with every video. You're such a talented creator!
I love this coat so far the best. Swing coats are awesome. Great news about you new dog. Many happy years to the two of you.
So happy to hear about Posie!!! Also, I used to love wearing color change nail polish (or nail polish at all, really) but with my job I chip it all horribly within a day. I love my job though, so I'll deal with my boring nails and just enjoy how fancy yours always are 😊 As usual, a beautiful coat! Lovely work!
I feel the same way about reading patterns before the construction. It makes way more sense when you physically have the fabric at that stage!
What a wonderful coat! I love your content
I love all of this green! Your hair, nails, jewelry, eye shadow, and this lovely coat!
Ooo I love this coat! Very pretty and just so easy looking!
Glad to hear about your dog! Also love your eyeshadow.
Love the Posey footage at the end
Beautiful coat. Glad I found you on RUclips
The coat is beautiful, absolutely amazing.
But as a mother of 3 dogs...the end of the video with the good news was awesome. I am so happy for you both. 💗💗
What a gorgeous coat! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Your eye makeup is so amazing
Love the coat, love the hair, and love that Posie is healthy!
What a beautiful coat and I just love your hair colour here!
Hi Angela, I’m sure I won’t be the only person to suggest this but two or three heavy duty black snaps under the collar will solve the problems with the hood and be hidden when not in use. Thank you for everything you do, you have inspired me to start dressmaking again after many years. Much love.
IT IS BEAUTIFUL! !!!
Love the new coats, and so happy to hear your puppy is cancer free!♥️♥️♥️
