  • Hello Friends! For those of you who like really long chatty videos, this is the one for you! I asked Patreon, RUclips and Instagram if anyone had any burning questions that they wanted me to answer. People did, so I answered as many as I could pack into almost an hour long Q&A! I do hope that you enjoy! I got a lot of fun questions and a couple of really serious ones, so this is for sure a ride!

    It took me forever to open up and talk with people on RUclips or Instagram! Now my challenge is to actually respond when my inner brain responds to them. It was hard but it's getting easier.

      Updating! Got to the end finally.... We will be seeing family for the holidays. My son finally got to meet his great grandma (he is now 2.5) and we will FINALLY be done with our conversion so I can get back to sewing!

      Hi there. Thank you for the update!! Fingers crossed for 2023 to be way better. I’m making a quilt for a wedding gift. I love designing quilts, love gifting them- but dang I hate sewing quilts, lol. I have my first lobster-tail bustle in the pipeline- my friend will be making an amazing avengers crossover bustle for Costume Con in San Jose in April. Will you be attending? I’m hoping to have my Nevers cosplay done by then. I have all the materials for my Desiree gown and coat. I’ve never done late Victorian and it will be all new to me. I also just drafted a medieval fitted gown with a friend and I want to make a cotton flannel one as a working mock-up to wear around the house this winter. I don’t actually have anywhere to wear medieval, I stopped going to SCA about 20 years ago, but it’s so pretty I need to make one. I also have fabric for, oh, about 20 other projects…. Yikes. 😅

      Oh it hits hard out of nowhere. I will get teary about my Baby Cat.
      She was the best😔
      As a kitten and adult, she only answered to Baby. Believe me I tried to name her many times, She loved her name as just, Baby. Her intelligence was higher than she should’ve shown. I’m glad she did, sharing that with us.

    To the end. Never actually commented anywhere on RUclips before, ever, but you're such a welcoming presence. I discovered CosTube creators around 2019, and vlog-style videos aren't usually my thing. But I was so impressed by the work you did to organize CoCoVid in 2020, and you earned tremendous respect for both getting that done and for including so many different people that too often get overlooked to contribute to conventions. I binged your videos after because you deserved those views, and I've been lurking her ever since. Your videos have been a pleasant companion through some marathon knitting sessions. Nearly finished the second sleeve on a sweater just now, and then I'll be very, very close to done with this project.
    Also, thanks for the thoughts about a creative space; I just moved, and have my own room for my stuff for the very first time!

    As an introverted Capricorn, it never really occurred to me to just like slide into your DMs and be like hey do you want to be my friend. But, I want you to know that I'm so glad that you made this long chatty Q&A video because I've missed you and your content. Whenever I watch your videos it gives me the feeling of hanging out with a friend while they are sewing or doing their own thing - which during the pandemic I was really missing in my own life. On a separate note, are you still planning to attend Gigi's elevation in january? I'll be there and it would be awesome to meet you!

    Thank you for your videos. I love the energy you give off. I don’t sew costumes/cosplay, but I sew mostly for quilts and the occasional pajama pants/shorts. I love having your videos playing while in my sewing room because it feels like I’m sewing and chatting with a friend. Especially the days I don’t want to sew but so close to having a project finished and I just want to get it done your videos help. So I love the long videos. Thank you for all you do!

    Thank you for vocalizing the importance of continuing on a project and learning from it! As someone who teaches textile crafts to children this is something I try to teach. The importance of completing the thing even if it is not *perfect* because there is so much to learn, not the last that it's ok for things to be flawed because they will be

    @ObsidianxAlice Год назад +2

    Made it to the end! Q&A videos are always so satisfying - I really appreciated whoever asked about getting to know people, too. I think you've talked about this before, how you are extroverted and tend to just chat with people. It seems like once you learn to get over that initial fear, it's a lot easier to do - not that getting past it is just so easy! But it's so important to try. It's all well and good to acknowledge being introverted, and how fast your social meter can deplete, but it's also an easy thing to hide behind, I know from experience. Comment and run! It's fine!

Then will hopefully pull out the mock up of Regency stays that I started yeaaaaarrrrsss ago and actually make them! So glad to see your vid and catch up this way. You were pummeled this fall and I'm glad you took the time you needed.

Right now I am finishing a vest for my husband, and I hope to attempt a 1930s hat before the new year. Noelle, you have inspired me with your clearly trustworthy and generous friendship and the extension of that friendly spirit to your RUclips audience. I love it when I hear other Costubers mention you as someone they call for support-I can picture it! I’m happy for you that you are getting some energy back after a really challenging time.💜

    To the end. Been watching your channel since summer ‘22. I don’t general comment on any social media content, but your advice on interacting to make friends in the community inspired me. I struggle in that area. As a gen X, I love the ability to have such great access to info but didn’t grow up socially interacting that way. But I’m working on it. Thanks for encouraging those of us who struggle with that.
    Love your work!

    I didn't know knits were their own special thing until someone said something about it. I like to use jersey needles and zigzag on the direction of greatest stretch.

    I simply adore your Instagram stories. My husband just does not get what I like about Instagram and then I try to show him the reels and what not and he still doesn’t get it.
    I’m spending Christmas with my mom and stepdad. And its a tough one for me this year. Christmas is my favorite holiday and this is the first Christmas since my dad passed in January 2022.
    Thank you so much for being such a bright spot on the Internet and encouraging people to just do the thing. That’s the motivation and help me get my curtains done. And I’m sure it will also be the motivation for me to finally make a corset and a few other things I want to make.
    And I’m looking forward to seeing you celebrate Jantober!

    To the end. I started watching you to help my then 13 year old make con costumes. I never stopped. I just truly enjoy seeing what your up to and how you process what is going on. I am not overly fond of sewing; but can do some basic stuff. I jump around in the artsy stuff because I love learning new skills but constantly struggle because it is hard to get good at something when you don't spend enough time developing the muscle memory of it. I appreciate that even though you have many hobbies you apply yourself to increase your skills.

  • @banbha12
    @banbha12 Год назад

    I have been watching your videos for a few months when i followed off a link from Morgan. I love all you gals and it really inspires me to get back into sewing (which I ignored/lacked motivation) for many, many years. I have forgotten how much I do enjoy fashion and seeing how things are done. It is nice to know that I am not the only one who has the same failures but am too stubborn to quit. I started off with the SCA and am looking for more. Alas, so much I want to do but managing time and energy around a full-time job is tight. When I broke my arm 2 months ago, your videos, and the rest, helped stem some of my cabin fever. Even though I could barely hold a needle for a while. Though, hand sewing is good therapy for a healing arm! :D

And nearly every night as I watch I look at various supplies and never order because I get stuck. I'm ripping off the bandaid and ordering the damn fabric tonight!

    To the end! Most of the little time I spend on Instagram is in your stories. Thanks for sharing interesting ideas. I've clicked through to watch longer videos, or to find more things in various accounts. I'm glad you're keeping up spooky/spoopy stuff, because there is honestly no good reason to keep that solely to October.
    It's good to see you.

    OH! good day! A new Nichole video! (and all my kids are coming home for xmas!!) I'm glad you took a break. You have had a hard year. Thanks for sharing your travails with us. I am managing minor health issues for me and DH and welcoming my kids home. I don't have much time for quilting and I refuse to costume until my form reduces a bit... Sewing, whether it be quilting or costuming or making trinkets, calms me. I love the creative process...which is why I enjoy your channel, because you get creativity. Happy Holidays to you...Sewing knits, I always fail and I've been sewing since I was 7. Thanks for this video....i will get to the end...I am virtually a neighbor...someday we will cross paths and I will enjoy that.

    I'm glad you took time to rest and recoup. And I hope all your holiday celebrations energize you and leave you ready for whatever new adventures come your way. Your videos always make me smile and leave me feeling as though I've spent time with someone dear. Which is appreciated.

    This was such a great video! I feel like I got to know you a little bit, in a real way. I love that you care enough about kindness, fairness, that you stand up to bigoted behavior makes me happy. I know there are good people out there, but hearing that you truly stand up for what's right makes my heart happy. This world needs love and kindness ❤ You are a great example of love and kindness. I am so sorry for your loss. It's been 3 years since I lost my Gigi( in picture with me) and I still go to talk to her, and then realize...
    I wish you happiness and peace,
    Audri

    Totally understand the idea of going forward! Makes total sense to me too, one of the biggest things I do for anxiety and panic attack is being prepared or finding triggers and finding a plan.

    To the end! Your chats always settle me down. ❤️ (I met you at the Persuasion Picnic. I had on the emerald green dress and I had a moment of spastic fangirling when I saw you.)
    I'm glad to see you back, and I appreciate that you keep it real. Lots of love on the loss of your kitty.

    Just wanted to say thank you so much for being your authentic self. The tail end of 2022 has been... rough, to say the least. And to add insult to injury I broke my left shoulder and right hand in rapid succession, limiting the things I can do that bring me joy. But one of those things is practicing my hand stitchery on a shift I started a year ago, while catching up on my favorite RUclips creators. Is it slow going? Yes. Have I thought of putting it down again? Also yes. Am I now motivated to finish it through to the end? HECK YES! Because this piece is the beginning of an adventure

    To the end!!!! I was so worried about you, but I knew that you needed a big break. I understand the stress that is RUclips. I only post once a month and even that is too much for me. I have to say, you look so much better in this video. I don't have many plans for the holidays. I've grown into a super major introvert, more than before like the Bruno of the Madrigals, so I've been content with just hanging out (hiding out) at my house. I have to work on both Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, but I plan to make it Christmassy... just bright and cheerful since that has been quite scarce this year. It has gotten so cold here all of a sudden, so I'm trying to catch up on my sewing that I've put off, but only because I had work. In a very secular way, Happy holidays to you and a wonderful new year. It will be year of the rabbit, so floofy, floppy eared bunnies are a-hopping in soon!

    To the end! I've missed you here on RUclips, though I'm so glad that you were able to take some time out to rest and recharge. I've been working on American Girl doll-size quilts that I donate, with my latest one was a red, white, and black log-cabin block pattern that was done with 1 1/4" wide strips. I'm looking forward to the liminal space between Christmas and New Years when my daughter (she's 42) and I just hang out, watch movies, and enjoy snacks and refreshing adult beverages. Wishing you and yours a warm and lovely season!

    Hi ya Noelle, have always enjoyed your RUclips and Insta. I’m not a costumer as such but I enjoy watching the process of people being creative. I’ve always liked watching the “making of” movies etc. I think of myself as a Jack of all trades. I have created so many different things. From last minute costumes for me or children, to painting by numbers, miniature, oh the list goes on. I work in a Secondary School Library, Perth Australia. I’m creating Library displays to encourage the students to pick up a book. It’s one of the many things I enjoy working in the library.
    These holidays I’m working on a quilt cover for my 16yr son. I’ve saved his favorite t/shirts from over the years and sewing them together to make a the said quilt cover. Wishing you and yours a happy holiday and a New Year filled with love and laughter.
    Keep Smiling

    Your philosophy is so positive and grounded! I really hope no one is holding your break against you, you don't OWE us a regular video. You're tired, it is good and right for you to take a breather. You definitely chill me out, it's like having a best friend in absentia. To the end :)
    P.S. Slightly disappointing that you didn't tell us Morgan's new cat's name, but it is her news to share I suppose. ♡

    To the end - was so glad you could take the time away you needed and am so glad to see you back. I'm working on a set of creative kits for adults based on the history and heritage in my city and the design I'm playing with now is taking endless microscopic tweaks in Illustrator to stop what is supposed to be the carved head of a bishop ending up look suspiciously like a frog. So it's lovely to have a chatty, easy, nice and long video in the background!

    This was lovely company during my Yule vigil. I hope your celebration was wonderful. I am currently fighting with myself to not try to finish projects before the new year. I could potentially finish one or two of my current projects but what my brain gremlins want me to attempt would leave me still unfinished but also stressed out of my mind and the added bonus of feeling bad for not finishing. So we're not doing that!
    I look foreward to seeing your ball gown, through the whole process. This is going to be such fun!

    I’m so glad your ok,Sis! You’ve been on my mind. Sorry about the cruise,again. We are all so proud of you for making all those fabulous clothes! I’m glad you’re doing ok and seem to be in high spirits! I am SO HERE for you in the Black and yellow Traveling look Glen wears in Dangerous Liaisons! Stunning! I must also admit that I have made over 20 medieval looks and haven’t gotten a chance to wear them again. I will wear them,I just haven’t had enough events to go to and they won’t get wasted…. I did wear one for Halloween so there’s that,at least. 🤷‍♂️ I am making a whole new wardrobe for this next Renaissance season,but I’m sure I’ll start attending more and rewearing the ones I’ve already worn. I just have a ton (literally a room full) of fabric to get through and that’s my goal. Stash busting and clearing space! Maybe we could do a stash busting challenge here soon if you’re up to it?! Wishing you a beautiful and bright holiday season! Hug the husband and kitties for me and always sending you all my love from West Virginia! 👑👑👑👑💅🏻💅🏻💅🏻💅🏻💅🏻💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

    To the END!
    Welcome back. For some reason, the fact that you took the time you needed to grieve and recover makes me very happy.
    What I'm doing: I'm going to be a grandmother again, my daughter (who is about your age) is having her first baby in March. I'm in full sewing and knitting mode for her for the next month. At least she lives in this country so seeing her is much easier than flying to France to see my other granddaughters. No historical sewing, just small baby clothing in the foreseeable! Joy!
    I look forward to your plans video, it will be inspiring.
    Thank you for what you do.
