I hope you enjoyed my 1940's take on the Queen's Gambit pinafore. If you did there is a whole playlist of me making things: th-cam.com/play/PLaG2bBTXx7U7pyiejUIlugJrXqjVsnpXg.html
Candy is adorable! I’ve seen grownup candy but loved seeing her as a puppy. Your jumper turned out great! I would definitely chop the sleeves on the blouse since you live in Florida and it’s too warm for them anyway. I’m really enjoying your channel and find myself watching you pattern haul videos even though I’m 3 years late and I’m sure they’re not in the store anymore. ❤❤❤
You posted this 3 years ago. I run late sometimes. I did see the Queen's Gambit and enjoyed it very much. I'm going to rewatch and pay closer attention to the clothes. i do remember she had nice clothes throughout the film. LOVE the sarcasm!
Yes, I really liked this even though I had never heard of "The Queen's Gambit" or seen either of the other outfits TH-camrs had been making. I watched this because it was YOU and an interesting vintage pattern. I loved your story telling as you worked, even providing the pattern with a back story. I also enjoyed meeting the cute little furry family member. Your sewing bravery inspires me, though for now I am only sewing sequined trim to melodrama costumes - my stage sister and I dress alike., according to our director. You are keeping me sane and entertained. Thank you.
It looks great!! And I loved the fabric you chose. I thought about giving a Queen's Gambit look a go for myself, but alas, my sewing machine has given up! Also I require more puppy
Just the video I needed on this rainy day! And also; I am working on my mock up for the QG dress and desperately needed a different skirt than that circle skirt in the pattern I use (but it does twirl nicely) 😄
Loved the fabric, and Puppy!!! I enjoy your triumphs, and mistakes -so reassuring for a relative beginner dressmaker. And, you must visit us in Toronto Canada one day🇨🇦
Love to see the sizing up/slashing and spreading! I'm gonna be doing that for a pattern soon. So any secrets/tips you have are welcome. I have tended to add to edges in the past.
I do both, slash and spread as well as I tend to add to the back center seams. I am technically not doing it properly. I have been told that I am not supposed to add in more than 1/2” per piece before tracing and doing it again, but I am LAZY and just do it all at once. (Which may be the cause of some of my fit issues, but oh well?!)
@@StephanieCanada Whatever works! When adding to the center back, do you compensate for the increased neck scoop and reworking the shoulder angles? I'm having some weird effects on a wrap front project, and I'm tempted to just fill in the weirdness with a collar stand instead of reshaping all the connected pieces. For the wrap front pieces, I might just have to disconnect and rotate until the darts are lined back up. Or just relocate the darts. Ugh.
More coffee machine. It makes a pretty noise. - Azi the Cat. Probably. Who closed her eyes and resumed her nap as soon as the coffee machine went away. Also thank you for clarifying Candy was named by your 5 year old. I now completely understand, and am somewhat endeared to the name.
I loved the name Candy too. I let my 5 year old name our cat, she named our girl cat, Chevy. Yes as in the car. Chevy keys bed to a ripe old age and now my daughter is 39, time flies.
do you ever put a pinch of fresh lime in your espresso? I read about it in a travelogue about Italy and have been hooked on it ever since. I wore jumpers all the time as a school kid - not a uniform I just loved a tweed jumper & clean line blouse. close as I ever got to Girly attire. Brava for showing the upscale process. Great project
@@StephanieCanada okay thanks! my sister would love this, she loves QG. I would love to make this dress for her but i can’t find any size 40 for this (my sister’s size). Thanks anyway!! I love watching your vids 🥰

My favorite part of "The Queen's Gambit" was the phine call with the three guys all encouraging her. True friends!
I love how it turned out the color is beautiful.
That interfacing trick to cover up that cut is brilliant!
Aww thanks! It was a down and dirty trick my mom taught me years ago.
The slow drop of the seam ripper really hit different.... The dread really sinks in
Oh yeah, I REALLY didn't want to do it, but I knew I had to if I was going to wear this again.

Now Stephanie....you know you're committed to providing us with Puppy Content now. (wink)
Of this I am very aware of! Plus she is just so darn cute (when she isn't chewing up everything in sight).
I have rescue cats, siblings who were named by the previous owner's 3 year old - introducing, Corky and Toodles.
Aww yeah kitties! I think cats are cute but our whole family is super allergic to them. But congrats on your family additions!!

I binged Queen's Gambit! And I love your dress and puppy!
Now that I have watched it I am WAY more excited to wear mine. It is such a good show.
I made curtains for my son's fifth grade classroom from the fabric in your backdrop. Good choice! (edit: the space fabric in the beginning)
The soap slivers from the shower make an excellent alternative to tailors chalk
You are so right!!
Have never seen the movie. But do like what you made. And l like the boarder panel behind you on the wall.
I can feel the closet historian in your vibe
I LOVE HER! That is such a compliment. Thank you!!
Well, now I really have to watch the QG!! Love the print choice on your dress and the whole look!
It really is a great show! You should absolutely give it a go.
I love the insite off the fabric. I think I used that as a good side.
Oh so cute ...i wore those jump.and blouse when i was a kid loved them
When I was 5 my mom let me name my new puppy Mary Poppins! 🤣🤣 Usually just Poppy. It was the 80's.

When you said you didn't have a bolt of dead stock fabric to go cut more of... I laughed.
I use the fusible interfacing trick to repair errant cuts, and I also run a very thin line of FrayCheck down each side of the cut after fusing.
So cool! I've been equally daunted by the sizing up process. This looks great.
If I can do it, ANYONE can do it!
I love the Queens Gambit, & the dress you made.
Amazing dress! Hi puppy!! 🥰🥰 I love every dog, but especially bichons!!
Puppy! Awwwwwww! (Lol you knew this would happen.)
RIGHT?! Did I really pandemic properly if a dog was not acquired?
Love that fabric
It looks great!! And I loved the fabric you chose. I thought about giving a Queen's Gambit look a go for myself, but alas, my sewing machine has given up! Also I require more puppy
Thank you so much! I know the feeling of the machine giving up. I have not seen since my Miss Scarlett dress because mine had to be serviced.
I have two of the vintage pattern's for two of the shows dresses
Candy Canada is perfect! Love your channel.
Thank you so much! She is super sweet and will be appearing in many more videos.
It turned out so cute! Also Candy!
Thank you so much!!
Just the video I needed on this rainy day! And also; I am working on my mock up for the QG dress and desperately needed a different skirt than that circle skirt in the pattern I use (but it does twirl nicely) 😄
this was fun :) Thank you
Thank you so much!
Great fabric choice! I binged watched Queens Gambit and loved it and that’s saying a lot because I never watch tv, it interferes with sewing time
Thank you so much! It is a really great show. I only get to watch it at night while I am hand sewing something.
@@StephanieCanada I had a sock to knit.
@@edinacole6382 oh nice! I can't knit but that does sound like a good "handy" task,

Thank you so much! I would love to come to Toronto one day.

@@ReinaElizondo she just used bias tape here, instead of re fashioning the back neck facing. See 7:30.
Master i'm done. Can i seamrip now?😅 quote by a friend who is an actual taylor who learned this stuff

I do love a good infusion of coffee machine into videos. Will do more to try and appease Azi the Cat. 😀

Hmm.. no I don’t but that is because I make a latte with mine.
Candy!
Yup! She is a floof and we love her.
Hiiii! Do you have a link of where i can get that pattern? Thanks in advance!!
I don’t right now. The copy I have is in really rough shape (rougher than I like to sell to folks).
