- Hello Friends! I finally finished the Scrrop Angelica Gown! Man, did this dress kick my butt! For those of you who think it's great when i'm on the struggle bus, this one is for you! Between frustrations with my own abilities and getting pretty sick this summer, this video took me like 4 months to complete, as did the dress. I was sewing until just a couple hours before the ball, but i did get it done... for now (MWUHAHAHAHA)! She's a beauty and i have some very lovely photo shoot pics that are being edited as we speak, so I will post those whenever they come back! I hope you all enjoy this video!

"I could show up with just a bolt of fabric, and Nicole would wrap me in it and it would look amazing." 😂❤ this is hilarious because it is true! You and your friends are wonderful, kind, and talented, and it is wonderful to see!
Thank you for showing the frustration, exasperation and your perseverance through every challenge this project presented. The break down at the end and every step of the way knowing you had back ups and self care at the core of your decision making process is so important to see.
People from the Dress History community do have magical powers. Anyone who makes garments is instantly a magician/witch/warlock/fairy to me.
To the end! I was puzzled by the front of such a structured bodice being cut on the bias. That sounds like madness to me.
I've been making sloper patterns recently for the first time. I'm plus size and fitting the sleeves has been crazy. I hate the way most sleeves fit me. My arm joint is small compared to the size of my biceps, and the modifications I made to the "starter" sleeve pattern got me nowhere. I ended up drafting a whole new pattern based on my measurements and I'm hoping it'll fit better, but I haven't cut it out yet. 🤞
To the end. Have a miserable cold, so your chaos blog was a nice treat for between sleeps.
Oh I hope you feel better soon!
I made it to the end! You kept me company while I looked through photos of two recent finished items to decide which ones make me look the least un-dead. I'm glad the dress (kind of) worked out for you in the end.
To the end albeit a while later. I applaud you for not throwing it in a fire pit but persevering until the end!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
F is for Family is a Fantastic endorphin boost laughter if you're into that sort of thing. I love your gown! You looked so beautiful 💙 so glad you got this finished, went and had such a great time❣️ I know how difficult mental health can be, I'm super proud of you! 👍
To the end! I picked up my knitting again for the first time in several years, to make a witchy winter hat for a Christmas gift. It’s been fun! And I’m really grateful the muscle memory is a thing. I had been thinking about getting rid of some of my knitting stuff since I hadn’t done it in so long, and now I just bought more yarn…. I need a bigger craft room! Switching off between the knitting and a bead embroidery Christmas ornament, so my hands are staying busy.
My younger daughter introduced me to Raising Dion. Very nifty show about a single mom who's son has super power type abilities.
I'll check it out!
It was interesting to watch the process of construction and you're not the only one that is thinking "Huh???" With certain instructions from patterns. Thanks for sharing your sewing journey. Immensely appreciated.
I FINALLY got the cream with red and black stripes knit top done. Took forever because I could only sit up 5-10 minutes and maybe 1-3 times a day. Now I can sit up for an hour at a time. Didn't start the gauchos, instead I made a Halloween apron and now I'm starting the Coe trouser from Daughter Judy. Making it from 13 oz black stretch denim. The instructions from the pattern gave me a headache, so I ignored them and wrote instructions based on sewing jeans. I cut fabric tonight.
My sons helped me out with buying some fabrics. Thinking to make the gauchos from a stretch corduroy and with a matching longish vest. Now thinking to make the bicycle split skirt from the black twill.
I now can walk around my apartment without the walker and cane. I can walk up to four blocks outside with my walker and that is very exhausting! My surgeries were pushed back a few years due to the pandemic. By the time I started getting replacements for my hips, I ended up in a wheelchair. A year apart for the surgeries. Many other medical issues and the Doctors are shocked that I survived, then those with a tenth of what I had, simply die. TENS unit has made much of my progress possible 😊.
I'm also working on an idea for matching Granny, daughter and grandson Goth outfits for formal portraits. I made some three years ago.
I'm going through all of my old comments today and i keep seeing your comments and it's like you are speed healing, which is lovely. I know that it was much slower for you, but i am so glad to see the progress! at some point, you are going to comment that you made the gauchos and I will have some Champaign!
@@Costuming_Drama thanks for the kind words. I'm no longer sick but was so for a few years with one thing after another that would kill healthy people. Now I'm doing what I can to going back to growing old disgracefully. Recently went to a metal concert. The audience was about my ages and most of them had neck braces on. So I didn't feel too bad. I was able to stand up off and on.
its not that i like you struggling its that you show you struggling and it makes me feel better about when i struggle cause that's how real sewing goes
It really is how real sewing goes! Someone once told me that, in the best way, I am the “reality tv” of costuming youtube
To the end!!!
It turned out beautifully and I’m so glad you had fun!!!
Thank you!
To the end!!
I’m making myself a nice button up shirt for my daily wardrobe and I can’t get the dang sleeves to set in right. Such is life
I LOVE The Expanse. Great show. I’ve watched all seasons multiple times. Proto-molecule is bad stuff…or “the ole blue goo” as Alex calls it. 😂
Have you listened to Humbird (out of Madison WI)?
Here till the end. Thank you for showing that you don't always start to finish in one day or week. Sometimes I start a project and don't finish it right away. Right now, I am working on a shirt for my husband( 3 weeks in) and a shirt for me that was started I think 4-5 years ago. Mental Health
Mental Health forever 💖
Really enjoyed watching the making of this dress Noel. Hope you are doing well, life can throw so much at us at times.
To the End! You were absolutely right about the copper petticoat. Stunning.
I am fighting with my sew-jo. I was dumb and I did my full allowance if projects (I have a strict project limit at a given time due to terminal start-itis.) in large complicated projects. Oops. Now my brain wants a fast fun thing and I cannot give it.
Also I am moving in January, so I don't want to moves wips, but I also need to pack... plus I have an LP channel that I have to extend my buffer enough to cover not being able to record while I move.... 🤣 It's all a bit of a mess. I really hope your trip was lovely!
Lady I've been watching you for a while...and I have come to the realization that you are full of wicked talent..can't wait to see what you sew next.
Chrisjen Avaarala is my absolute favorite character in The Expanse. I love her. I want to *be* her. She’s an incredible character. I’m going with some friends from the CGW to watch White Christmas in 1950s grab - which means I have thee weeks to make something, and I sew about as slow as you do! Oh, and I watched to the end!
To the end! So much interesting information, must watch again. You looked stunning in your stylish gown.
Had a major case of “squirrel!” This evening but made it to the end. I love watching you and your general approach to what you’re doing - thanks for sharing it with us!
Awesome! Thank you!
“I have pleats in my armpit.” That made me snort. 😂 Currently knitting a sweater vest & handsewing buttonholes on an 18th century jacket. The SAG strike appears to be over, so I’m a little at a loss because very few people in the industry are actually back to work. I walked 186 of the 192 days of combined striking. Watching Shameless. Yes, I’m behind. To the end, my friend.
By the by, I got to meet Amber Benson on the picketline. She was very nice.
To the end! So glad you got to wear this gown to the event.
To the end! Love this project. And I love that you had the guts to embrace the imperfections and push through! It’s absolutely gorgeous
Thank you so much!
To the end! Copper petticoat looks great!!
To the end! And I would never stop watching before that! Stunning result, even though I can only see it on a phone. And I love the headdress! Looking forward to the event vlogs.
To the end. I knew you’d finally show us, but I missed when this vlog went up for some reason.
To the end!! 🎉
Have you listened to No Such Thing as a Fish? It’s by the QI elves, and is a comedy chat about random facts - I find them really great to listen to whilst working. Xx
Oh yes! Constance loves that podcast and i should really listen to it!
To the end!
I loved The Expanse and have to go back to watch the rest of it. I think I got up to season 4 🤣
To the end, glad you were able to finish. I just changed positions at my job, sewing I'm onto Christmas gifts. Not really watching anything, and books. I have a bunch of audiobooks in my downloaded library to listen to but was in training so haven't in a bit.
To the End!
Just finished reading 'The Midnight Library'. It would make an fascinating TV series! 'Our Flag' season 2 was amazing!! ❤If you liked early seasons of 'Lost', I would recommend watching 'Silo'. It's super intriguing! 🤯
Also, after 6 years of not starting my winter coat, I've actually started! I even made a mock-up!! It's fully cut out now, I'm just adjusting the silhouette a bit! Go me!! 🥳
Go you!!
I love the copper petticoat with the black bodice. Cant wait to see the vlog of the trip.
Love your videos! You looked gorgeous in your gown. I've been watching the Winter King because I am a sucker for Arthurian legend. Hope you are well!
As it is November, I have just finished reading Legends and Lattes and am now making paper snowflakes for our windows. And planning to bake gingersnaps and maple cinnamon cozies.
Hi Noelle!
I started watching you in covid and you really inspired me to keep pushing through everything. I love your videos and have never commented before but I thought now would be a good time to start.
I just wanted to thank you for being realistic in your videos. I've seen you struggle a bit with projects, motivation, personal issues and your strength to keep going in a constructive way has been inspirational. You sharing your troubles and sharing how to be compassionate with yourself has been a big motivation for me to keep going on my own mental health journey.
So thank you, for being glorious in your authenticity
♥
awww thank you for telling me that!
I’m usually too nervous to comment but I love all your videos so much and this looks AMAZING!!! I love how this turned out. Kind of wishing for a black taffeta gown now for myself 💗
Thank you!!
I got stalled on Wheel of Time, I did get to book 10 though! I'm watching mowing videos! They are strangely relaxing. And I started Fall of the House of Usher. Happy Thanksgiving!
To the absolute very end - I hope you had the best time. I just finished knitting a hat and neck warmer for a friend. Making myself a shawl and still working on my sweater because OMG knitting sweaters takes forever. It has gotten very cold, but not snow, here in Norway. We've had so many northern lights lately and that has been amazing. I also have a new magpie friend who loves pecans and bits of hard boiled egg. makes the cutest little chortle at me while hanging upside-down tapping on my window.
I'm also thinking of visiting the states for Christmas this year to see family....just not 100% sure yet about it. Hoping if I do to pick up fabric there that is so hard to get here and some other notions.
Finally have the lap quilt pieces cut - now to put it together - made a carriage lap robe for drivining the Jockeys back and for to the barn for Montpelier Hunt Eaces in a golf cart
_ALWAYS_ to the end!! ❤
The struggle was real with this one, but you looked great and i hope the entire experience was fun, warm and cozy, and wonderful for you!
It was!
Literally just finished my party dress while I was watching you!! well, I do still want to hand bind the arm scye because all that poly frays like a mofo and I need to add a hook and eye, but she's DONE!! She's short and tentlike with enormous poofy sleeves and is make from black and red skull brocade.... And already started back in on another dress that I want to take with me to wear when I go visit clients... I leave on the 1st so... maybe thanksgving weekend will be marathon sewing :D We absolutely LOVED the Expanse and to this day call our bosses bossmang. Watched the Barbie movie last night. kind of wish I hadn't because I have thoughts...
To the end!
Re-reading the whole Aubrey/Maturin noveks by Patrick O'Brian. Wonderful historical stuff!
I do love your dress, that copper petticoat sets the black off so well! Yes, I always stay till the end!
I'm working on Christmas presents just now, and think I may have bitten off more than I can chew with my partner's cardigan, the way I have to knit it is hurting my hands!!
We're hoping to go and see The Marvels next week, as it's just come out in the cinema here.
I hope you're doing well xx
I’m always here for your music choices! Working on commission painting and watching The Fall of the House of Usher
To the end
Hi, you look fabulous in the dress, you are so right about your friends making everything look amazing possibly because they are fabulous friends 😊, I'm preparing, for Christmas and surgery, also to move next year 😂. Such fun. 😊
I hope your surgery and Christmas and move all went well!
To the end. I'm about to try and make one of my work dresses for me again by sacrificing the sleeves for bust expansion and making new ones out of whatever black fabric that will do
Once you’re done if you want some behind the scenes of Expanse Adam Savage has great ones on Tested
Oh yes! I know about that!
Noeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelle time!
To the end. Bless your heart for hanging in there! You look marvelous in the gown; ready to go bite someone!
Wishing you and your family a Happy Thanksgiving,
xoxo's Sandie🤗🦃
To the end! I ran into similar issues years ago making an Evie Frye cosplay (one of her alternate outfits). Ran into so many construction and fitting issues and fabric behaving badly. I ended up wearing everything but the coat and had fun despite no one knowing who I was. 😂 And now it lives in a garment bag including the unfinished coat because I don't fit it anymore.
How am I doing? I've dissociated all afternoon and evening and food isn't cooked for the work week is how today went. 🙃🤦♀️ It's what happens when your city runs out of your focus meds. Currently Waiting for Godot for somebody to get a restock somewhere.
Recently I've been re-reading Storm Kings by Lee Sandlin, which is about the early history of tornado chasers. I've also made slightly more headway on a 1700s pocket, maybe I'll actually finish the embroidery before the end of the year. 😂
I'm glad that you finished the dress despite the issues that popped up. It and you look fantastic!
To the end! 👍🏽😃
Another great video. I actually held my breath a couple.of times. The dress looks incredible! Loved it. Glad you had a wonderful time.
I am still trying to catch up to Critical Role. And have to listen to the new Buffy audio as well. 👍🏽😊
I always watch to the end. This dress was all the chaos. I really hope you had a wonderful time (it sounds like you should with everyone you're going to see, even if there's lots to do).
Compassionate goals and scheduling down time are a lot harder than they should be, in my experience, but I'm trying to remember to do them, too.
I finished a dress last week for a friend that she was very pleased by. Nothing quite that complicated, but it was a big project for me. I also finished a large project (making a very fluffy dog) for someone else and they were very happy with it. I've been kind of floating around, working out what I need to get done next.
I've been relistening to the Bewitched by Chocolate cozy mysteries (with a touch of chocolate and magic) by H. Y. Hana. Really enjoyed Villains Vignettes by Drew Hayes (one was about a person whose ability was to create an epic Halloween town that allowed people to taste what it was like to be super heroes [or villains] during the day and to win a very dangerous game after dark).
To The End!
My condolences on your struggles. The dress looks fantastic!
I'm making pockets for all the clothes I made last season. Many of them are going to be pieced and/or patchwork.
I'm reading rhe October Day series, well, halfway through Late Eclipses, but, for me the storyline took a direction that I wish it hadn't.
To the very end! My free time is taken up with Baldur's Gate 3, so I keep pushing my sewing projects later. I'll be starting my holiday canning and baking soon, too.
To the end ;)
I love the gown and it is so versatile, with different underskirts you can change the look dramatically, not only colour wise with with patterns as well (I am thinking white and black stripes a la Van Tassel/Betelgeuze).
Take care of yourself, Noel.
ooooo a black and white striped petticoat would be amazing! Thanks for the idea!
You're watching The Expanse. Yay!!!
(To the end!) Pumpkin Spice Chai is amazeballs, and the chai just adds some extra cinnamon-cardamon-clove spices to the Pumpkin Spice. Tastes very good with the nutty flavour of soy milk, too.
I am here for all of the looooong content videos you care to share! Your learning process and mine seem similar. I had the same issue and didn't understand why until you explained it. Then it became clear! My issue went so far as to create twisting type things? I re-cut on straight grain and problem solved.
I think I'll go back to making some gothic necklaces for a bit of creative release.
Also, OOH, SHINY!!!! lol
Absolutely to the end!! (Everytime!)
What a journey with this dress. I'm glad you got to reach your goal and make it work. I'm sure you will finish it to your complete satisfaction in the future.
Love the stretch goals you have implemented. More Crafters, myself included, should use them. We need to be kinder to ourselves ❤ 🧵
Can't wait to see what you make next! Thanks for sharing your projects!
To the end! Love the preview! Sleevils!
To the end of course. I have socks to finish for xmas!
I have my sewing mojo back with a vengeance. My son-in-laws musketeer fencing outfit is done, I made a caftan for lounging for myself. In the meantime we also dealt with a broken fridge, a misfunctioning microwave and heat pump. All fixed and next week we get the house rewired because that was what caused the problem. I have had my flu shot and next week after the electrical mess I get my covid booster. But I will be so glad to get all that electrical done and over with.
That is so lovely! I know that there are things you don't like but I think you should ignore those parts. It's a beautiful and functional gown that fills a hole in your wardrobe! The stitching is amazing so carry on as if everything was normal!
I've just finished reading The Chanur series by C J Cherryh. It's 5 books that grab you in and keep you till the end! Definitely worth reading \ listening to!
Not doing much else. Just finished knitting a bunch of dishclothes for gifts. Though some are going to stay with me as they are oblong instead of square must have been a good conversation to distracted me so badly! Other than that I'm waiting on a doctor to tell me why I'm so dam tired! Hopefully it's something easy. Fortunately I'm too tired to work up the energy to worry! I was told old people didn't need as much sleep as young. I'm feeling lied to!
To the end as always :) I haven't made anything lately and need to figure out a project that helps me get my sew-jo back as you say. I have been rewatching old shows lately and listening to Huberman Lab for podcasts.
To the End! The gown looks wonderful on you.
Thank you!!
To the End!!!!! Mazel tov! Looks bangin’…dresses that give a butt is a mood 😂 Watching Andor (late to the party?), listening to music from the Xmas concert I’m producing. 😅
I really love The Expanse! I like the books a lot too, the show changed some plotlines but I like both in their own way
Of course I watched it till the end! ❤❤❤❤❤
💖
To the end! It may have been chaotic and stressful (for you) but it came out beautifully!
All the way to the end, always! It looked beautiful!
Thank you!
To the end! And shucks…there you go inspiring me again!
💖💖
To the end! It looks fabulous!!
(I should be working on the Christmas ornaments I’m gifting this year…. 🥴)
Always too the end!!!!love you and what you do !!!!! ❤❤❤❤
Thank you!!! 💖💖
To the end! Reminds me of “to the pain!” But nicer
Hahahaha
Thank you for sharing your life with us ❤ Haven't been doing much crafting lately. Will try the podcast - I've been listening to a lot of them lately and enjoying it! (Mostly not in English though xD)
Definitely to the end!
To the end!
And always down for chaos vlogging, it's just part of the journey ^_^
Another to the end. The quick look was gorgeous! Hope you had a wonderful-not sick- event and I look forward to video from it & the photo shoots.
Soon!!
To the end!!! I hope that you had a wonderful time xxxxx
It was lovely!!
To the end!! Love seeing real sewing; fumbles, fubars, breaks and all! Well done!! And oh yeah, Nicole would do a Thing or maybe more than one with a bolt of fabric!!
Still here to the end. 😊
To the end... always!
I always watch your videos to the end. :) (emojis aren't working on my computer .. le sigh)
Beautiful dress! I'm excited for the rest of the projects, too!
To The End and Beyond! Hope we see more soon 💜
For sure!
To the end. It is beautiful
Thank you!
Omg I LOVE THE PETTICOAT AND THE PLUMES!!!!!!
Thank you! 💖
@@Costuming_Drama you know I love alllllll the extra. I mean. You’ve seen my trains. Lol 🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷
I'm so glad you finished it!!! Looks amazing ❤❤❤❤
Yay! Thank you!
To the end. Looks fabulous. You look amazing.
Not something I can wear. Most historical fashion and wheelchairs don't play nice. Stays and corsets are uncomfortable too so cannot get the correct silhouette.
Love seeing all the historical gowns that everyone makes.
Thank you!! I bet regency could be modified for wheelchair comfort!
I'm working on several leather handbags and belts (mostly gifts) and I'm listening to Esrahaddon by Michael J. Sullivan (highly recommend all of his books!), which will be followed by The Titan Of Baleros by pirateaba...
To the end! I startet om the expanse, binged season 1, started on season 2, got very confused and lost. Is on my list to watch but not while im doing something else at the same time....
I wonder if a wheeled dolly/cart/thing would be the right thing for the thread caddy, then you could nudge it out of the way while you're moving around, and maybe the rest of the dolly could be storage for something else?
So this week I had a good long sit-down with a project I started maybe 8 years ago, I decided it's the other UFO I must finish before starting my Walking Skirt. It's a hakama pattern and to be fair I did mark the pattern upside-down 8 years ago, but holy gods it took a long time to wrap my brain around it again. And it's not like I've never done this before, this is the third time I'm making this exact pattern!
I just found an audiobook for "Nine Princes in Amber" here on RUclips and I really recommend it. It has a few sumptuous descriptions of late-medieval-inspired clothing sprinkled throughout.
I also watched "Robin Red Breast", also here on RUclips, which is a wonderfully eerie and oddly cozy British film from the 1960s. A great movie for Fall.
The Amber chronicles was one of my favorite books in high school!
To the end! Your dress was beautiful! 😸
Thank you! 😊
"time heals all wounds" in sewing is "trim fixes all problems" :P
Truth!
I'm knitting Christmas presents on my circular knitting machine
Ooooo fun!
To the end 😁 and it turned out beautiful. So good to see you again ❤
Thank you so much! 💖
Ah, this has made my evening!
Yay!! 🎉🎉
To the end
To the end!!! 💚💚💚
Made it to the end!🎉
I know that wall space is also lacking in your room but have you considered making a simple..yet sturdy shelf to "hang" your thread box on the wall? Perhaps above your desk?
