Yes, it seems much less daunting to create my own pattern after I watched your explanations. So far I only used bought patterns as is or "draped" directly on myself. Now I need a new draped skirt :D
@@TheClosetHistorian yes i agree with these lovely folowers!! also please dont stop your rambles!! I LOVE them!! I have a whole playlist of your videos that i put on to help me fall asleep - you are so soothing to listen to and i love your humor!! also if i sleep through the adds you get more $$ lol. (I do try to watch at least 1 full ad per video!)
In a world of sweatpants and leggings, I constantly aspire to be, 'too much.' You looked amazing, and you made that amazing outfit look extremely approachable. Thank you!
Thank you Elaine! This fabric truly is best in glowy candle or low lighting for dinners and such, so I do indeed look forward to wearing these pieces on evenings out one day!
Thank you Monique! I have done two sci fi vintage lookbooks so far, a Blade Runner themed one here th-cam.com/video/llIKT_bsGhA/w-d-xo.html and a Star Wars inspired lookbook here th-cam.com/video/gwY1vFLsPeQ/w-d-xo.html but I may do more in the future one day ;)
I don't even sew, but I love listening to these project videos. Must be the loneliness of the pandemic. It's just soothing to hear a voice that's calm, confident and engaged in a rewarding endeavor. My favorite from this channel are the lookbooks, though, which are joyous fun.
I'm really enjoying the use of the aesthetic from your last few videos in this video. I've got some black watch tartan that would look grand done in this style of skirt.
This is fantastic. From the super mysterious aesthetic of the intro you then demystify the whole process of what looks so complex in completion. Thanks for the lesson amongst the wondrous joys of style and class. And I am a fellow pencil skirt wearer. Bring back the pencil skirt, I say!
Oh my gosh! I was wondering how you made this drapey skirt. This is so much easier than i thought. Thanks for the tutorial. I feel like every drafting video you do gives me more confidence to tackle my own difficult projects. Terrific!
Thank you Fawn! I usually stick to quite simple projects myself, but in the future I'll have to get outside my comfort zone for new and exciting tutorials here eventually 😅
Thank you Nancy! I'd certainly love a dinner party, or even restaurant dining again as I haven't been out all year of course 😅 I can't wait to dress up far too fancily for dinners out again one day!
The matching top with this skirt is EVERYTHING. You look like a fabulously wealthy young widow whose husband passed under suspicious circumstances. I want to go to WalMart in this! 🤩🤩
I love how such a (fairly) simple pattern hack can add so much visual interest to something like a regular pencil skirt. Thank you for showing your process! Also, your make up in this video is STUNNING.
I love your method of sewing an invisible zipper. It seems quicker, to the point. Plus I love the design and how you alter your basic pattern block to get your new design. As someone mentioned you make adjusting a pattern less scary.
Pattern manipulation is fascinating. The ability to transform a basic block with slashing and pivoting, turning darts into gathers or pleats, adding style lines and working around them instead of the edge of the block... you can make it into anything as long as you know how to pair the pattern with the right fabric. I love the skirt and blouse together.
I lv watching y use that machine ,I learned on an old singer in high school . Don’t faint graduating class “1960” tailoring Mrs Hedrick, and Mrs Christie I’ll never forget them.💕👌🏾
I learned to sew on a machine like yours. It was the best machine I ever sewed with. I wish my mom never got rid of it. She wanted something more modern.😒
I follow your creative path a few weeks now and it is enchanting! I have to command the way you make technical methods very approachable for non professional sewist who want to give a twist to their classic patterns, it is all well presented and informative. Especially keeping just for us the history of the construction to see. A big thank you from Ireland.
You’ve made this seem so simple, thank you! I also absolutely love the blouse you’ve made to go with the skirt - I would love to know how you made it, if you’re ever in the mood to make another!
Thank you! I did indeed film the making of the matching blouse, the video is just on my Patreon I'm afraid. I'm sure I'll make something else similar on here sometime!
I kind of love you. First of all because the cadence of your voice and the modest way you speak is so very much like a good friend of mine. It makes me feel like I'm spending time with her. Second because you're alleviating my fear of putting in zippers.
. . . but is it itchy? I know, I know! "Who hurt you?" That shiny green Flamenco dress, I'm tellin' ya. Scarred me emotionally and literally! EPIC! Yes, definitely! Too much, never! Stay warm!
Although I have nowhere to go and no reason to dress up every video you make sends me off to la-la land with beautifully dressed people looking fabulous. You are wonderful and your style aesthetic is beautiful. For me the skirt and blouse in the same fabric are not too much at all, now I need is to find the video with the asymmetric blouse. You are consistently great with your videos and content.
Thank you Verdonda! It's nice to have the videos to get dressed up for honestly, as I do miss getting dressed to go out and about or out to dinner, one day when the world is a bit safer!!
Your love of patterning is so apperent in this funky designs.. I wouldnt even think of adding all this detail to a pencil skirt. You make it look so easy.
I loved this video! I'm not very confident in sewing, let alone sizing and drafting stuff, but you make it look so doable! Please, do continue! Also, that fabric is amazing.
Yesssss! So many new ideas! The logic of each pattern change is clear. I like the unusual linen, and how the design looks with stripes and plaids. Well done!
Love that you sgow each step, makes me hopeful and helps alot figuring things out. Love your aesthetics. The puffy sleeves were perfect and would make for gorgeous evening wear to a party. Why not be extra❤
I really enjoy your videos. Its very helpful but not overwhelming. I've been making clothing for over 15 years but always something new to learn. You are very good at showing things while still being super chill.
Gorgeous! Perfect for a night at the opera or for cocktails on a river cruse with the blouse of the same fabric. Love how you show the pattern adjustments.
Oh gosh the fabric is Gorgeous!! I love these styles!! The fabric puts me in mind of 40's - 50's travelling suits! Scratch that, it makes me think of a broom riding skirt, it's truly magical!!
The matching blouse and skirt look so elegant and polished, just right for going out to dinner or the theatre. Another memorably beautiful outfit, worn with great style.
Love all that cut and tape! I'm from Evergreen! There is another costuber from Longmont. Hm, something in the water? I went to HS in Boulder and worked there for community theatre and loved the Shakespeare Fest so much that my mother sent me to England for part of HS. I still make history bounded Medieval for myself as well as 1916 and 1969. For my store I make all kinds of history bounding/vintage stuff. I can't follow patterns to save my life, so I appreciate your attitude toward flat pattern/design. I drape almost everything, but flat pattern works, too. I ran away from home to LA where I thought I would be a costumer for the movies--yeah, right. Worked in a sweat shop on the Strip, but learned a lot more tricks there.
Thank you! I was from San Diego originally, so for my first year of university I ran off back to CA to LA too, but had a terrible time so I moved back to CO and finished my degree in Fort Collins instead ❤
Bianca: Closing up the darts creates an A line skirt. Me: 👁️👄👁️ Something just clicked and my eyes have been OPENED! I've always been pretty terrified of drafting my own patterns because it seemed too complicated but your videos are so educational and make things so simple and accessible. I always learn something new! 💜
There was one shot when you were sewing where the fabric just glittered! How pretty is this! You did such a great job, and I too, usually skip stay-stitching (except on a necklines and armholes).
Oh my God this is so beautiful! Is it too much? God no! It's so fabulous it makes me feel much relief .. literally a sigh of relief in an ugly world! So so stunning!
OH MY! This is stunning. So well explained and demonstrated. I really love everything about this video, including the details and your voice. And fabric and design. love love love.
I’m so glad you did a video on this skirt. I saw that red and black striped version on your Instagram and I was wondering what was going on in the front. That dress was stunning 🤩. Then you break it down and make another fabulous version and I totally get it. I am such a fan of your flared skirt and then you added the pleats and made it so extra. That last pairing with the iridescent top is perfection 👌! I see myself at least giving it a go to mock up my own version just to go through the process. Thanks again Bianca!
So lovely. And no, not too much with the matching skirt. I would never have thought to do that to a pencil skirt pattern! Something to try once I get a few simpler projects under my belt.
Here's hoping my own 'fancy' (aka more expensive than I'd usually buy) green fabric will make up into this as well as yours did! Love your channel, you inspire me so much - & thank you so much for breaking things down into easily manageable steps 🥰
I am definitely making one of these now! Thank you for sharing your process! (Also the way you edited with the fading between shots and the slow zooms was so soothing to watch 👌)
Lovely makeup!!! Lovely project!!! Great intro!!! So love your channel!!! Thank you!!! PS ... do you have a specific makeup (eye) palette you use??? Thanks!!!
I love the paring of skirt and top. Sure, it´s nothing for grocery shopping and stuff. But it will be perfect for a dinner or a small festivity or theater or opera. And the skirt with a more subtle top or blouse could be worn for a meeting/date etc. where one could wear a little bit more drama.
That fabric is so scrumptious! I had no idea that fabric.com was owned by Amazon. Good to know! Also, despite the fact that I've been sewing almost my entire life, it wasn't until watching your videos did I ever *get* how to do a lapped zipper. It almost makes me want to go seam rip all my old clothes and redo the zippers. But I'm not that crazy.
AHHHH I LOVE IT!!! So, about a year ago I commented on a video of yours asking about help on coming up with a good 30s/40s evening dress to wear, as I am a jazz singer in love with that era! I found this video pretty funny because that hell sleeve and asymmetric drape skirt combo at the end is almost IDENTICAL to an extant pattern I’m going to use for my evening dress (although floor length, of course, and maybe a slightly different drape). I’ve been waiting for a show-stopper fabric like the linen used here before I actually make it, and I can tell you, I don’t think it’s too much, I think all three elements combine for a truly breathtaking dress!!!
I love how you simplify the process of adjusting patterns. You make adjusting patterns seem a lot less scary.
Thank you I'm glad that comes across! It really can be simpler than it seems ❤
Yes, it seems much less daunting to create my own pattern after I watched your explanations. So far I only used bought patterns as is or "draped" directly on myself. Now I need a new draped skirt :D
Agreed! Pattern manipulation feels a lot less daunting after watching a bunch of these videos.

Thank you! Too true, I'll be overdressing at every opportunity once going out and about is properly allowed again 😅

I love the blouse and skirt in the same fabric. It's a little fussier than day wear, but perfect for evening. Those puffy sleeves are gorgeous!
Thank you Elaine! This fabric truly is best in glowy candle or low lighting for dinners and such, so I do indeed look forward to wearing these pieces on evenings out one day!
Um yes to sci fi vintage core!
Was that a veiled hint at a future look book?
I hope?
Maybe?
I'll hope.
Thank you Monique! I have done two sci fi vintage lookbooks so far, a Blade Runner themed one here th-cam.com/video/llIKT_bsGhA/w-d-xo.html and a Star Wars inspired lookbook here th-cam.com/video/gwY1vFLsPeQ/w-d-xo.html but I may do more in the future one day ;)
I am learning so much about pattern drafting from your videos! I’ve never had the confidence to try it before.
Thank you Amy! It is worth a try, I hope that if I can impart anything it's that it can be less scary than it seems!
I don't even sew, but I love listening to these project videos. Must be the loneliness of the pandemic. It's just soothing to hear a voice that's calm, confident and engaged in a rewarding endeavor. My favorite from this channel are the lookbooks, though, which are joyous fun.
Thank you Eve! I like to watch/listen to makers make almost anything, models, woodworking, it is relaxing!
The drape reminds me of Vivienne Westwood! This is masterfully done.
Thank you Dawn!
I adore that fabric! It looks amazing with the draping, and the styling at the end is all great.
Thank you Renee!
I'm really enjoying the use of the aesthetic from your last few videos in this video. I've got some black watch tartan that would look grand done in this style of skirt.
Thank you Sarah! Everyone loved the intro so much I decided to add one for this video too ❤ Black watch would be excellent indeed!
Fabulous. Love the top and skirt in the same fabric. We need glamour in these days of lounge wear.
Thank you Paula! Too true ;)
Finally found my girl crush! Thank you for reigniting my love of pattern manipulation. ❤️
This is fantastic. From the super mysterious aesthetic of the intro you then demystify the whole process of what looks so complex in completion. Thanks for the lesson amongst the wondrous joys of style and class.
And I am a fellow pencil skirt wearer. Bring back the pencil skirt, I say!
Thank you Kaytie! I love a pencil skirt, I should count how many I've made... ;)
Oh my gosh! I was wondering how you made this drapey skirt. This is so much easier than i thought. Thanks for the tutorial. I feel like every drafting video you do gives me more confidence to tackle my own difficult projects. Terrific!
Thank you Fawn! I usually stick to quite simple projects myself, but in the future I'll have to get outside my comfort zone for new and exciting tutorials here eventually 😅
The level of drama in the matching skirt and blouse is astronomical and I'm HERE for it.
Thank you ;)
Love the skirt and top, perfect for a dinner party .
Thank you Nancy! I'd certainly love a dinner party, or even restaurant dining again as I haven't been out all year of course 😅 I can't wait to dress up far too fancily for dinners out again one day!
Totally not over the top. It is a gorgeous outfit to wear to a fancy restaurant. I could watch you sew all day. At times, I have.
Thank you Ann!
Fabulous as ever - love the matching top with it; would rock a little Robin Hood stylee 40s hat in the same fabric? Hmmmmmm, maaaaaybe!
Thank you Debbie! A Robin Hood hat at a jaunty 40's angle would be divine really!
The matching top with this skirt is EVERYTHING. You look like a fabulously wealthy young widow whose husband passed under suspicious circumstances. I want to go to WalMart in this! 🤩🤩
Thank you! Got to love the glam widow look indeed, rather film noir fatale 🖤

This is the first video that actually made pattern drafting seem accessible- I want to make this now! Thank you for this, and I love your aesthetic.
Thank you!
You’ve made this seem so simple, thank you! I also absolutely love the blouse you’ve made to go with the skirt - I would love to know how you made it, if you’re ever in the mood to make another!
Thank you! I did indeed film the making of the matching blouse, the video is just on my Patreon I'm afraid. I'm sure I'll make something else similar on here sometime!
Your blue fill light combined with your iridescent shirt and yellow eyeshadow was such color candy 😍
Thanks Anastasia! I have been having fun with colored light lately 😅
I kind of love you.
First of all because the cadence of your voice and the modest way you speak is so very much like a good friend of mine. It makes me feel like I'm spending time with her.
Second because you're alleviating my fear of putting in zippers.
Thank you Alexandra! Zippers are a very valid fear to be fair, this is the only way I can do them without dissolving into much cursing aloud 😅
Thank you for sharing
In 2020 there is no such thing as 'alot'. That top and skirt combo is divine.
Thank you Debbie!
I love how clean and professional your sewing is. And I love a vintage singer sewing machine. I am quite fond of my 401A
Thank you! I have totally been converted into a vintage Singer person...I may even sell my other new machine eek ;)
Ahhhhh. That fabric. And your makeup. Total style goals. 😍😍
Thank you Emily!
. . . but is it itchy? I know, I know! "Who hurt you?" That shiny green Flamenco dress, I'm tellin' ya. Scarred me emotionally and literally! EPIC! Yes, definitely! Too much, never! Stay warm!
Thank you Michelle! It is not itchy, but is a little "rough" to the touch certainly ;)

Absolutely fabulous

AHHHH I LOVE IT!!! So, about a year ago I commented on a video of yours asking about help on coming up with a good 30s/40s evening dress to wear, as I am a jazz singer in love with that era! I found this video pretty funny because that hell sleeve and asymmetric drape skirt combo at the end is almost IDENTICAL to an extant pattern I’m going to use for my evening dress (although floor length, of course, and maybe a slightly different drape).
