I wanted to make myself a super frilly, ruffled, and lacy dress and matching pinafore apron, inspried by Candy Candy, an anime from the 1970s that was super popular in Korea all the way to the mid 90s.

OH MY GOD I haven't met anyone else who grew up watching candy candy. Such an emotional rollercoaster. I haven't watched it in a long time but, she goes through an obscene amount of hardship but is somehow still extremely resilient. Highly recommend
I was just going to say the same thing. I love Candy Candy. 💕
I've watched it 3 times!!! I absolutely love it I'm so glad my mother introduced it to me
Same
I watched candy candy growing up and goodness it’s nice to hear people talk about it :) it’s so frickin sad I cried so hard 😭😭😭
So emotional, so wonderful! Wish more people knew about it
I follow youtubers regardless of their upload schedule. I know the algorithm likes a regular schedule, and I do enjoy looking forward to regular posters. But humans are chaos, and I follow enough people that there is always somebody posting something. We miss you when we don't see you, but health trumps internet. Hope your health improves!
If you want to try sketching on your own proportions rather than a model's, you can take a photo of yourself and trace your outline, either digitally or on paper with carbon. You can make as many copies as you want, and they're you! I find this gives me a better idea of what I like on myself, since there are styles I like in general that I just don't feel look great on me.
That's a great idea!
*and* you can take different pictures with the foundations for different historical styles! I love this idea
Good idea, I was literally just looking for a picture of myself to do this. All the templates legs are two heads too long and it doesn't make any sense lol.
I have done this too! :)
That's such a great idea! I'm gonna try it right now!
Wow, the history behind Gingham fabric is so surprising! I always assumed Gingham must've been a British town or person that was somehow connected to the fabric. Little did I know it's actually Malaysian! Gingham just sounded so British to me haha
same! I'm really glad to learn more about it
Here in england we wear gingham school dresses that have the school colour. It still gives me nightmares
@@lauraarkless-mckie5899 luckily I moved to the UK in year 10 so missed the primary gingham experience but I think its why I just cant like anything gingham 😂 I appreciate it on other people, etc, but can never bring myself to buy any!
@@lauraarkless-mckie5899 I'm American, and did not know that was a thing! Just looked up M&S school uniforms and.... You're right. They're terrible. Not full or swishy or fun in any way. What a tragedy!
In the USA gingham is associated with the very fullest, frilliest dresses possible! It's considered very "country" but also quaint and cute. It's an inexpensive fabric, so poor farmer's wives and daughters would splurge on lots of it and sew very fluffy dresses to feel their prettiest for the county fair. Also popular for curtains in bedrooms or kitchens.
To me Gingham sounds not English, but the spelling is so British
Candy (that’s how it was called in French) was my mother’s favorite anime (well... she calls it dessin animé). I showed her the beginning of the video, asking if it was what I thought and she started signing the theme song
Sorry to hear you aren't feeling well, please take care for yourself and your family. Those who truly appreciate your detailed work can surely wait for you to be back in action. 👑
I have always wanted a gingham dress and lacy, ruffly apron like that my whole life long! I'm so happy for you that you got to have it! I hope you enjoy wearing it often, swishing around your home and life, and feeling as pretty as the most darling angel in the universe. :D
Thank you! I've honestly loved hopping around in it! :D
I did not watch very much animation or cartoons as a child because my parents disliked it as well as anime/Japanese style faces (not going to read too much into that right now) so I never watched these show, that is until March 2020 when my travel plans were cancelled. I binged Studio Ghibli, Nippon, World Master Theater. I fell in with love Candy Candy, Daddy Long Legs, Georgie, Lady Lynn, basically any 1970s through the 1990s shouji style cuteness! I also read all the manga and brought merch, and made art based on the characters
Sandi Toksvig is a national treasure for both the Danes and the Brits.
I never knew the name of this cartoon character. Growing up in Asia, I used to see lots of this character or similar printed on notebooks, stationeries etc. you look absolutely gorgeous as always and I admire your creativity and hard work.
You have just delivered the hardest nostalgia smack I ever recieved
That apron is Adorable (and those enhanced pigtails were absolutely necessary, yes, a delight to watch) but I must admit I audibly gasped when your hussif came on screen because that's beautiful too.
I truly enjoy your celebration of being a girl. I’m 78 and you have inspired me to start sewing again. Thank you for being you.
This is lovely! I grew up watching Candy Candy! It was súper popular in Latin America too during the 80s. The dress looks wonderful. Thanks for bringing me this memory back :)
I'm still crying about it
I *totally* forgot "reading" Candy Candy in Middle School! It wasn't translated into English, but I was still able to understand most of the story. Somewhere I have a puffy sticker of Candy Candy!
The lace was extravagant, but, oh wow, so worth it! Prettiest apron ever.❤🤍❤
Thank you!
Okay, so watching this I think I have finally figured out how to do a little 3/4 sleeve, I have been working on a dress for my daughter from vintage pattern that was missing the sleeve band piece and I finally know how to fix it! This knowledge helps a great deal since her birthday is today and I was really hoping to have this dress done by now! Thank you 💜💟
Happy Birthday to your daughter, from one birthday girl to another
@@SPofSaturnProduction happy birthday!
@@SPofSaturnProduction what a coincidence my birthday is soon! Many wishes to all of you two!
It’s beyond darling and suits your aesthetic so perfectly. Seriously adorable! I’m sorry to hear of your health issues. Sending positivity and love your way. It may not fix everything, but it certainly can’t hurt. Love, light, and blessings to you and yours.
I used to wear gingham in the 50s and early 60s but none of those dresses were as cute as this one!
Can we please get a video about this absolutely adorable hand sewing kit you've put together, I am in love with it!
Same option, it is looking so adorable
At least, in Mexico we know gingham as the "picknic tablecloth", el mantel de picnic.
También en España! Jajaja
En costa rica le decimos “chinilla”
My dad used to watch _Candy_ while he was in Mexico in the 80s.
I need to make a playlist of "costubers being freaking adorable with their dogs."
Or...with their pets, because I now recall a few non-dog pet cuteness moments.
Add Abby Cox & Nicole Rudolph for dogs... Bernadette for Cesario... :)
Prior Attire's Isabelle had an excellent cat, too. :)
First up, health and family are number 1! Take care of yourself and do what you need to do. Health issues stink and they’re exhausting.
I adore this dress! I’m a sucker for gingham and full skirts so this checked all the boxes.
Finally someone putting respect on 1970s shoujo anime
I lived near San Francisco from six years old to 18 years old, 1976 - 1989. Both my sister and I got Candy Candy book bags from a shop on the Wharf. I remember they were red with a picture of Candy Candy and her name. What a blast from the past. Your dress and apron are so cute.
"your entire internet history. A truly terrifying thought"
the internet history: "to lace with love"
The apron and the pigtails truly complete the 70s manga aesthetic. This is such a joyful creation! I feel like I am always smiling, while watching you create these pop culture inspired outfits.
Who else wants to make a gingham dress now?
You look adorable! I love how you look in this video.
Candy Candy was a huge jam in Venezuela when I was growing up too! Love to see it, she's so adorable.
Thank you!
I absolutely love this outfit!! It's giving me Seven Brides For Seven Brothers vibes and I'm loving it so much. Now I really wanna make a gingham 1850s day dress with short sleeves because I am now very inspired because of your amazing work.
My mom watched this anime in Spanish in Chile!! I thought the story was super familiar to something she talked about, then I showed her the video and she was ecstatic to see such an old memory!
I adore Yumiko Igarashi's art style! I've been obsessed with her illustrations for "Candy Candy" and "Georgie!" for years. Such a great project! Absolutely adorable.
You have taken me on a trip down memory lane! My mom, with the help of a neighbor, sewed my sisters and I little gingham dress. I loved that dress! The little dresses were a sheath style. Your dress is absolutely beautiful, thank you for the video, and for bringing back sweet memories.
xoxo's Sandie
Okay now I have to learn to sew so I can recreate clothes from my favorite anime growing up, Marmalade Boy!
Candy, candy was also seen in Colombia in the mids to early 90's so this is nostalgic for me as well
I love the Kiln at the end, Candy Candy will always be one of my favorite anime. The fashion in this anime is so cute. Thanks for for creating an iconic dress in this show.
I remember my mom renting Candy Candy VHS's in Korean for me to watch. I don't remember much about the actual content but loved the animation! Never have heard people talking about it.
So cute! Watching the apron being made was especially satisfying. Some gingham hairbows for the pigtails would be super cute too.
Oh no! I've already been eyeing off the light green cotton gingham at the fabric store where I work. I think I've been convinced.
I love Candy Candy, I watch it over and over all the time
I haven't thought of Candy Candy in years! When I was a kid my mum would show me all the shows she watched growing up and Candy Candy was one of them! It was also popular in France when it aired
Where were you months ago when I nearly died making this apron!!! To be fair I just rewatched your video 9 times and I still don't get it so its definitely a me thing. Also the fact it tells you to cut out 2 of one thing and then never mentions why 2 again!! Not newbie, brain melted human friendly 🤣🤣 but oh so beautiful 😍😍
Sewstine is very clever-- i was about to skip the sponsor bit, but then there was a doggie present. I will never skip over any media that involves a dog.
That dress gives all the Candy Candy vibes! I watched it as a child and I can tell. Tale care of yourself and get well soon!
this is the cutest thing! It's one of those where it's not my style at all but I love seeing it on other people, especially when it brings you so much joy!
I'm always looking for Mangas that I hadn't heard of and this one sounds so sweet and cute
Thanks for the history on gingham. This set came out so cute and wearable!
This is adorable! I have to say- you have almost my exact “house dress” aesthetic, the only difference being that I like long skirts.
Which makes your channel very dangerous to both my wallet and my future projects list.
I LOVE CANDY CANDY!! OMG, I watched the whole series when I was a kid and even found a set of the DVDs online years ago.
Cute! I make Lolita for Etsy, but nice Lolita, not cheap. I also make Mori Girl, and draw what I call "western manga," graphic novels. So I appreciate all the art! And thanks for Farmhouse Fabrics! Take care of yourself and that boy!
Fun Fact - you can go into any sewing machine store and when they ask what you want to sew, say ‘Sewstine’! After they get the fangirling out of the system they know exactly where we are, even on a mechanical machine budget.
OMG someone else knows about Candy Candy!! I used to watch it in my country as a kid
Candy Candy, that brings me back to my childhood. It was actually on television here in Europe in the 1980's.
the art of candy candy reminds me of Rose of Versailles, which seems, extremely your jam
Girl, I was looking for instructions on how to make an apron because I bought the same pattern you got and the instructions are very confusing for me as a beginner. I cannot thank you enough for uploading this vid! It’s been playing non stop while I work on it! 😅
Perfect timing! I've been meaning to make an apron, and was just about to re-watch your other apron video. I think I'm still going to do that, as the style of that one is more similar to what I want to make. The outfit is adorable. I love gingham so much, I'm shocked to learn it wasn't invented by white people and I'm now have a minor identity crisis! lol.
Omg Candy Candy. 😱I haven't thought of that show in what must be 20 years at this point. Thank you for the nostalgia. ❤️
Hehe I'm so happy that people remember her!! She was such a huge inspiration to me growing up!
Candy candy was and still is one of my favorite Anime along with Knights of the zodiac. I always wanna to try and make one of her dresses but l'm afraid I will look ridiculous but now seeing you is giving me encouragement to at least try.
And congrats you dress look awesome.
Everytime the music starts playing while you're about to show the completed garnents, I start smiling and feel inspired!
Loved this dress! looks so comfortable to wear. I might have to try making one myself. Thank you for the history of gingham. Very interesting and educational. I love cultural history (is that an english expression? (I'm swedish)) and the history behind how things became what they are today always makes me excited 😊 Thank you for all your hard work to share this with us! Hoping you will feel better soon and that you take all the time you need to make that happen! ❤️
those Candy Candy dresses gave me GOOSEBUMPS!!! im always so happy to watch your videos bc i feel so seen in my love for cute aprons and frilly dresses
I grew up watching Candy in France!!!
I love gingham! I never knew I wanted to know the history of the fabric until I saw this video.
Thank you! Glad I could be helpful! :D
The dress and pinafore look absolutely beautiful. I would only make one addition, crinoline petticoat.
I love the finished product! The frills and lace are so perfect! This is similar to a little red riding hood dress I made a decade ago, I even used the same inspo, and an identical gingham! Yours is much more finished though. I opted to make an open front shirtwaist and incorporated the apron directly onto the skirt so the only actual closure was the apron tie at the back. That made it more flexible, so I have been able to lend it as a costume to a wide variety of body types over the years. Yours feels so much like real clothes 💖
Ooh! That sounds beautiful and makes me want to wear it as a little red riding hood dress too! :D
@@Sewstine you just need a beautiful red cape, and a bask of treats and voila!
I’ve always loved gingham; it was my first choice for the kitchen curtains in my first flat. In the UK, gingham dresses are the summer uniform for girls in very many junior schools. You look so cute in this dress!
Love this dress and the apron. Also loving your dyed locks in your hair. Very fun! And I love your electric tea kettle! I’m sorry about your health issues. It took me about 3 years or longer to get a diagnosis of seronegative arthritis, despite being a family doc myself and having suspicions of arthritis at least 2 years ago. But all the blood work being negative threw me off. Thankfully a good specialist picked it up from my x-rays, so don’t give up! Wishing you the best health wise. I can speak from personal experience of understanding the frustrations of ill health, particularly when one has little ones to care for and patients that depend on one.
That outfit goes great with your tan and white Bernadettes from American Duchess!
I couldnt help associatin the dress and apron the the edwardian era (sorta) here in sweden, and the dress that Ida has from the fairytale by Astrid Lindgren, called "Emil in Lönneberga". Your project was stunning btw! Thanks for the inspiration!
Ahaha, poor Ida! I always pitied her so much, life with Emil is hard indeed. :D
My parents made me grow up watching candy candy when i was a little 6 year old girl, and girrllll i was sobbing like never before😂😂
Please accept my best wishes and prayers for your health 🙏💗🌷 . Interesting history on gingham. Look at chicken scratch and see if this is something you could embroider on your machine if you want to use gingham again 😉. As for the apron it is gorgeous 😍! The fabric and beautiful Swiss laces with bows show how outstanding it really is! Definitely for special occasions!
Christine your saying about Do what you gotta do to get it done ✔has good merits to it...when you zig zagged the lace pieces on. So beautiful 😍💖 Yum jasmine tea in a China cup and saucer ,the best!
LOVE this dress on you!
Congratulations ! You have made art with your dress and your apron. Both are very cute, and you are si elegant, pretty and féminine with it. Me too, although I am a man, I like wearing such aprons, but I préfet cross-back aprons, but this one is very beautiful .
I have a gingham dress that I made many moons ago that just wasn't *right* when it was done!
I think I may redo it with ruffles on the bottom! Thanks for the inspiration!❤
I knew I recognized that pattern! I adore retropatternarchive!
So… this is unrelated to your sewing (although it’s always so fabulous) I wanted to comment on your beautiful wedding ring! It’s stunning, and looks perfect for you. Thank you for making your videos. They are so calming and bring me comfort. Blessings to you @sewstine.
How do you always know just what the world needs
You just set my brain on fire with visions of Mizuno Junko anesthesiologists in scrub green ruffle dresses and aprons.
Perfection! And with the little stuffed Kleen the raccoon!
Your videos are so helpful for me. My most recent project was my first full outfit, your sewing videos helped so much. Thank you for explaining things so clearly, I personally really appreciate it
Thank you so much!!
An absolute dream of a dress and apron!! Thank you for the inspiration and lovely video!!
Candy Candy was shown in Poland in late 90s, I've never watched it but always wanted to. It's on my "do watch/read" list for 2 years probably and this video made me want to watch it earlier!
I'm a fan od classic XIX century/earlyXX-century girl literature and how there used to be many animated adaptation. I also like series that are made from scratch as a homeage or pastiche like Nadja of Tommorow or Loulou de Montmatre and Ballerina movie. And Candy Candy hopefully
I love the brown dress and green gingham apron...
I love Candy Candy. Thanks for bringing this to life again :)
I grew up watching Candy Candy in Puerto Rico so thank you for the nostalgia. As always your creations are ever inspiring as they are stunning.
The apron came out so good.......and those pigtails 😍😍
I love your intro music! I was watching something else and I knew it was your video because of the music.
So very sweet.
Thank you for sharing.
The apron & the dress are lovely.
I like how you bring clothes to life, and all the skills and information that you share
I hope your health becomes less challenging.
The cutest dress ever!
You match your fancy couch!
Ok I need this apron, love all the frills and I don't wear frilly stuff.💖
Ahhh thank you SO MUCH for that sketchbook recommendation ! I’m terrible at fashion illustration but drawing out designs is so helpful to visualise projects ! Absolute life saver 💖
Yep, definitely with you on patterns thinking people have really skinny arms! Even in larger pattern sizes this happens!
Just found this channel AND I AM IN LOVE !
You look great in the dress and apron.
Hope your health issues are sorted soon and you are well again.
watching your dog watching you twirl around in a gingham dress bring me so much joy 🥰
It's adorable on you! And the Bernadette shoes go great with it!!
Its so weird seeing a Scottish dude in anime, i feel so validated. XD
Funny story...I made the same apron a few weeks ago. I love this pattern. ^_^
you're the best sewing channel!
