here's to another year of making things the slowpoke way! leave me a comment if you have any requests for things i should make in 2024! thank you so much for all your support💝
Some ideas : Another take on the "color on color bulky textured embroidery "could me interesting ? I love this type of designs Like the barbie inspired top but monochromatic ? Like on a shirt or side lines on a tailored trousers, or big squared checkboard trousers or something Also you should try painting on clothes, i love doing that : on a light color suit, you can draw your own stripes, quilt, checkboards, flowers, fruits, spiders, cashmire, or even do a soulage (very black and dark inkings) or caligraphy inspired design, and even give it texture with embroidery on top of it or patchworks or appliqués or wool
Your work is INCREDIBLE, Victoria! 🙇🏼♀️ So high concept. I’m in awe. Can’t believe the throwaway reel of projects you didn’t give backstories too at the end of the vid either - the scrap leather bracelet was to die for! So looking forward to your coming year’s work 🤩
I'm nobody but i declare you the Best New Channel of 2023 🏆 Watching your videos is having the good luck to be pulled into a timespace whirlpool where the only signal is a public access frequency of tutti frutti material interventions by one artisan distilling various lifetimes of experience on planet Earth. I wouldn't dare suggest what you should make next other than to assure you that any one of your impulses will be the right one. If you branch out into cooking, housewares, beauty, anything - I'm guessing your wonderfully particular "voice" will still be clear.
I love your recap, it is so personnal and so heartwarming I discovered you this year and i am so glad for it I really love your creativity and boldness and that freedom you have in your works, it is very inspiring and always a pleasure to watch Your work always feels like very personal, very detailed, fashion that tell a story about the world and about you and your life and how you make your way through the world The dedication and precision and personnal investment you put through each of these pieces of art is absolutely stunning You are so talented and so smart Thank you for your videos, thank you for sharing all of this with the world and with us I wish you all the best for this new year
You very quickly became my new favorite channel on TH-cam. Every single one of your videos is the perfect blend of elegance and playfulness. Your devotion to your craft is so admirable. You inspire me so much! Can't wait to see what you do in the new year, thank you
What a feast for the eyes! How did you make so many different things in just one year?? Your creations are fun, beautiful and original. I love hearing the stories of your inspiration, fabric sources and other details. I’m waiting impatiently to see what you will make next….
Loved hearing more about your work particularly how you fuse different inspirations, definitely art not craft. I particularly loved your jackets. Hope you have a healthy happy 2024
This was so incredible to watch, well done. The gingerbread cookie bag hit me deep in a nostalgic soft spot and everything else made me gasp in admiration of your creativity and skill. You have something special in you.
I love how you put together your videos, I love how you weave in parts of your personal life, I always watch them so intently! Can't wait to see what 2024 has in store! :)
This video made my soul so happy. Those are some of the best home sewing clothes I’ve ever seen. The time, effort and thought you put into everything is impeccable.
really excited to see more wonderful creations. watching your videos is like eating a rich and satisfying truffle chocolate because it's so decadent you want to slowly savour it. Your kitty is sooo adorable. I have been making a lot of bead jewellery with wire which makes it so versatile and easy to mould and adjust. Am also going to clone a favourite shirt in brushed cottony pajama material. I loved your chiffon dress with chinese calligraphy...i have yet to custom print my own fabric but know I could do that with Cotton Bee. it seems so scary. what i love about your designs is that you don't make it perfectly prim and proper...your embroidery is so rough and ready like a mad fine line live sketch job yet everything turns out so chic and refinedI am in awe of you and how you talk about your life and art. Am also glad you share yourself and that you left the corporate world for much greener, luscious endless pastures. Happy New Year🥳🧵🪡✂🧶🎨
Oh the amount of fashion adjectives I learned in this video! My favourite of yours is the black suit and my guilty pleasures are the bag and headbands teehee.
This is so creatively nourishing. Thank you for sharing that! I am definitely designing my own patterned fabrics from now on AND will def try to embroider some flowers. Love
i'm sorry but i'm literally SCREAMING in my small Budapest apartment. i hardly ever engage with content but these videos are so good, I just have to comment about it. i am somehow transported back to the sewing room of my mother and grandmother, being 10, wrapping myself in fabrics, dreaming of the adult i'll become. i think i dreamt to become someone as stylish, effortlessly cool, and intellectual as you are. and tbh, i turned out all that, but i left my artistic and clothsmaking hobbies behind, so in different ways. i'm not even sure why i'm writing this gibberrish here but i'd love to virtually shake your hand. thanks a lot for this experience, it's been a long time that i thought of my 10 year old self and her dreams
Wow wow WOW!! Your clothes are so deeply inspiring. As is the artistry of your entire video. I love that you use a stylized background for your clothes reveals. I have been wanting to document my own sewing journey but …. Only shot even a small part of the process of an alteration yesterday. I am hopeful you will find any imitation to be sincerest flattery and will of course mention the source of my inspiration. 🙂😌 All of your artistry is stunning and inspiring. Thank you for sharing it.
You are a true artist with impeccable eye and attention to detail. Also what thoughtful inspiration. I love everything you have made, the beading, embroidery and fabric choices everything is gorgeous. The crepe jacket is truly fantastic. thanks for the inspiration
I made my own pleats because i was so inspired by your videos! it worked so well! i added too much starch to the vinegar spray so the pleats dried like cardboard haha, but after a gentle hand wash it's soooo pretty! i'm going to make a delphos inspired sleevless top as i didn't have a ton of fabric to work with! thank you for being such an amazing inspiration to us all and for more amazing pieces in the new year :))
Can’t wait for what comes next. Would love to see an ode to a fav McQueen piece and perhaps a new Victoria take on a fav met gala look. You always inspire!
Loved your recap. Could you please share a tutorial on how to make this amazing Austro-Chinoiserie Jacket. As someone who grew up in Bavaria I‘d love to try making your take on the Trachtenjanker.
Wow, i love your videos! Thank you for your work! Could you make a video showing the process of embroidering with pearls in more detail? What kind of threat you use, what pearls, what techniques?
I have been watching you for a awhile, You have become one of my favorite TH-camr ,I would love if you would do a tutorial on the black bracelet i love love unique bracelets .I am almost 70 years old but i love unique and fun jewelry please for 2024
Watched this video purely because I liked the pun in the title. So glad I di as it introduced me to an awesomely creative sewist. Subscribed and looking forward to seeing more of these works of art/items of clothing.
Your sewing is so inspiring and aspirational! Everything from the art references, the editing of the videos and, of course, the clothes themselves is just a dream. Waiting for more in 2024! Ps: could you please give a hint about a pattern for your austro-chinoiserie jacket? I would love to have it in my wardrobe!
thank you so much for your lovely words 💖 and no hint needed, i can prepare a digital pattern of the austro-chinoiserie jacket! working on digitizing my patterns now (just taking a while haha)
Love everything. You are an inspiration. I am an avid altered couture creator and your videos are fantastic! I love lace and hand embroidery would love to see your use of them to embellish outfits.
Beautiful, intriguing expressions of ideas. I am in love with all of these! Your question mark Austro Chinoiserie jacket put me in mind of Yang Lui’s ‘East Meets West’ pictograms. I wonder if her side-by-sides might inspire you to do something along similar lines in textiles.
The care and attention that you put into every project is just incredible, and I love the editing! Just found your channel and I know I'm going to have to go through and watch all your videos
I'm making an assumption that the non-green screen back drop is your actual home and from what I see, I absolutely love it. So, you are a self taught sewer then? I ask because of the corporate background you mentioned. Regardless, the clothes and the inspiration for them is fabulous, very excited to see what you create this year!
Ms. Jin ... you are so inspirational. I believe you are a unique designer already. Whether you create just one of a kind pieces ... your work belongs on stages, platforms, ditigal/print(magazines/newspapers) & any runaway. 🎉❤ I may not have reason to wear your insightful & beautiful creations - there wasn't a piece that couldn't stand on its own edititorial legs. Nia Garcia could use your work.
here's to another year of making things the slowpoke way! leave me a comment if you have any requests for things i should make in 2024! thank you so much for all your support💝

Just now finding your channel. You are so talented and eclectic in your style! How is it that you were raised in Austria? and have an American accent?
i went to an english school in austria, which is where i got my collaged accent 😂
Ms. Jin ... you are so inspirational. I believe you are a unique designer already. Whether you create just one of a kind pieces ... your work belongs on stages, platforms, ditigal/print(magazines/newspapers) & any runaway. 🎉❤
I may not have reason to wear your insightful & beautiful creations - there wasn't a piece that couldn't stand on its own edititorial legs. Nia Garcia could use your work.
❤❤❤
Do you use a special camera your videos looks dark and vintage.
just regular canon 70d! with most coloring done in FCPX
Wow…
