Wow, that came out amazing! Would be definitely cool to do some shots in an abandoned house. Thanks for sharing the whole process, including the problem solving bits. When you pointed out the challenge with sleeves, that had we puzzled as well. As others mentioned, I think you can oil sissers. I’ve done it in the past at least, for the same reason you have. I used very thin machinists oil, the same you would use for a sewing machine. Thanks again madam M!
Thank you! This was definitely the hardest thing I’ve made to date. Thanks for the oil tip, I need to actually learn how to look after my machine properly anyway so I will definitely get some 🖤
Yes you can oil your scissors but rub it after so it doesn’t leave marks. I do it on a regular basis just as I do my machine tune up every month. Nice work! I love everything you do
Thank you that’s so helpful! Is there a specific type to use or doesn’t it matter? I really need to learn how to do maintenance on my machine, I’ve been putting it off cause I’m scared I’ll break it but it’s getting so dusty inside 😬
@@MadameMyriad I reckon you’re creative enough. You would do an awesome job plus it would be cool to see dressed up in full makeup. Pluss all the beading and head dress would be right up your alley. Please try it would be epic
I have very obsessively already mapped my year of projects out but maybe one day 😅 Honestly I think it’ll go in my list of ones I want to do but want to wait until I have the budget to go all in with it!
@@MadameMyriad I look forward to your projects Dracula can wait. You’re very creative and you’re fun to watch thank you for all your hard work. I’m not into sowing or coss play but enjoy watching the creative process. 👍
I watched to the end. Just marvellous! Full respect for music choices as you work. High school musical 😂❤. The dress is fantastic . You really incredibly talented ❤
this is so beautiful and amazing and impressive!!! i do want to point out, to hopefully minimize some of your self criticism, that the real sleeves of the 1890s & the movie had padding in the shoulders! it wasn’t jsut the fabric used, they straight up had padding stuffed in there / boning/ wire/ lots of tricks to keep it as poofy. so all you’d need to do is add some poof inside your sleeves instead of remaking in a “nicer fabric” as you alluded to- i think this one is great!!!
Aw thank you again! 😊 I’m glad you like this one too! Although I’m aware there are problems with this dress, I am really pleased with how it turned out!
I've been self-doubt-procrastinating finishing my 1860s corset for 3 whole weeks, and watching you work through and problem solve has given me the inspiration to finally cut into my precious coutil. Thanks so much for the video and what a fantastic dress!! seriously well done :]
Thank you, I didn’t touch this project for almost two weeks at one point because I couldn’t figure out the sleeves for the life of me! Good luck with your corset, I’d be interested to hear how the project goes🖤
Thank you 🥰 I’d be lying if I said it was easy, the sleeves were definitely the hardest part for me! So worth the struggle though, you should go for it 🖤
At some point, you mentioned your ADHD, and I was like: « HA! I KNEW IT!! ». It takes neurodivergent person to recognize another. 😜 My own ADHD wins over me all the time! 😂 Especially when I’m supposed to be working on some translation (I’m an English to French translator), but it’s really boring. So many cute cat videos, so little time! 😅 Also, I really love that costume on you, with the wig and all. So pretty! 💖
I’m not sure to be honest, the gap between the gathers was pretty big to get the right effect so I don’t think a machine could have done that. Plus I genuinely suck at machine gathering, I have never successfully done it, ever… I always snap the threads so I’ve pretty much accepted I’ll always do them by hand 😂

"friends, enemies, lovers" wins best intro for me
Haha, I forgot I said that 😂 might have to use it again

Same oil as for your sewing machine
Thank you, I appreciate the advice x
@@brutusabundia2734también pensé en ponerle pero me asusta ensuciar la tela🙈
You should make Lucy’s wedding dress out of Bram stroker Dracula.. that would be so cool and I reckon you would smash it out of the park.
That would be an ambitious one, the fabric sourcing alone 😅 Could be really cool to get creative with shooting though!

I watched to the end. Just marvellous! Full respect for music choices as you work. High school musical 😂❤. The dress is fantastic . You really incredibly talented ❤
The tracks in high school musical are far better than they have any right to be 😂 there’s no growing out of them & thank you, you’re so sweet 🖤
My New Favorite Channel!! 😮❤❤😮The projects are amazing and very humorous.😂
Thank you! That made my day 🥰🖤
This was outstanding ❤
Thank you 🥰🥰

Thank you 🖤 it did?! Well that makes me feel a hell of a lot better 😄
Fabulous!
Thank you! And thank you for supporting so many of my videos, I really appreciate it 😊🖤
The work, the skill, the dedication this project is beautiful and you deserve all the compliments.

Great job!
Thank you 🖤
Awesome
Thank you 🥰
Nice! You eventually figured out the weird shape of 1890s sleeves! Theyre hard to figure out without looking at a drafting manual
Just barely, hard doesn’t begin to describe how it felt doing those sleeves 😅
Oh, well done!
Very impressive, but especially the neck piece.
Thank you 😊 I am so happy with how it turned out!
I actually saw this nightgown in person at the LACMA Museum a few years ago! It has all the red stains on it still.
I’m so jealous! That must have been amazing 😍
The dress came out amazing! I've wanted to try and make this myself too, but the process seems daunting!

Haha yes 😅 the eternal struggle to work when I just want to watch otter videos 🥹 & Thank you 🖤🖤
Awesome results! Love it! ❤️
Thank you 🖤
New subscriber here! I stayed till the end and was thoroughly entertained.
Aww thank you ☺️ I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
Could the machine do rows of those loose stitches and then you can tighten them to gather, so you don’t have to spend days doing it by hand?
I’m not sure to be honest, the gap between the gathers was pretty big to get the right effect so I don’t think a machine could have done that.
Plus I genuinely suck at machine gathering, I have never successfully done it, ever… I always snap the threads so I’ve pretty much accepted I’ll always do them by hand 😂
