Lovely work. Well done. You know, you could start creating little mini series for each project, like you did with Bowie? I figure, the project is done when you say it is. As for pattern suggestions, my only one is to check your local library (& college/university libraries) to see if they have copies of Patterns of Fashion in the reserve section? - Cathy (&, accidently, Steve), Ottawa/Bytown/Pimisi
This is so cute. Thank you for taking the time to post your videos. As someone just starting out I think you do a great job of making costuming seem accessible.
Thank you! I'm so glad they're helpful! It's one of my all-around goals to help make "doing the thing" much more feasible for beginners, because that's what kept me from doing it for a very long time. 😌
I've never seen the fleece/ flannel attached after the buckram has been assembled. it makes it quite complicated and fiddly. it all looked really good though.
Hah! Yeah, I bet it is easier to attach it before assembling the buckram, although I can see a benefit from holding off, too, as I was able to hide my assembly issues by adding the felt after the fact. Thank you!
@@FantasticalFolliesCostuming The places where the weird pieces touched would have shown thru the orange fabric, too, so the yardage was a good purchase
The look and fit of the accessories, especially the pelerine, was just perfect! Fast and fabulous for the win 😁
Thank you so much! 😁
the Chicken dance! Loved it!
Thank you 🤣

Thanks for the tips! I always forget about the library. Which POF is it that has late Victorian in it? I only have 1 and 5.
@@FantasticalFolliesCostuming I _think_ the late Victorian is in Volume 2. Fingers crossed for the library.
i love your accessories--and the whole video is delightful! love the finished ensemble!!
Thank you!! They were really fun to make!

Both pieces look great!
Thank you! 😄
These turned out wonderfully! I'm always looking for projects to make with low yardarge/scraps, it's nice to see what can be achieved using them!
Thank you so much! I'm the same way...always looking for ways to use up orphan yardages 😊
Awesome job!!
Thanks 😁

Same as ruffles on a petticoat/sleeve, before sewing up the edge
Better to buy a few things so the project turns out NICE, instead of wasting time and already purchased supplies and having it turn out crappy
Agreed!! Well worth the money I spent. I would have gotten so frustrated trying to sew on all those weird pieces.
