Yess, my grandma had one that had a green, grey, and very orangy brown, sadly it was too damaged to wear (literally falling apart bc it wasn't storaged properly since mom never wore it) when I found out
“I love trash” respectfully said “I am a human possum” for some reason to me, love it lol keep up the good work with keeping fabric ecosystems thriving 😂
ha, yep. I bought 30€ of ivory polycotton thread recently because I couldn't decide on a shade so i'll probably just be sticking to off-white and blue-ish black for everything i make because price, effort and enjoyment overpower my perfectionism by far.
@@karljiks Good for you. When my mom used to sew she always had to find "matching" thread. I got over that really quickly sewing quilts, because as you said, price, effort and enjoyment definitley overpower my perfectionism by far also. Happy sewing!
I’m tempted to do this because my first sewing project on my sewing machine is a bag lining for a crocheted bag for my mom and I used black thread bc that was the thread already threaded in and I regret it bc it stands out so much on the teal so I have to redo it 😢
When I was a kid, my sister and I took some of our Dad's ties and cut them up to make evening dresses with matching coats for our Barbie dolls. Boy, did we get into trouble!
OMG, that is completely AWESOME! When I was little, I tried cutting my little friend's hair, after one or two snips I tried to GLUE the strand I had cut back on. I didn't really get into trouble as I was very young, but I will never forget it! HAHAHA! She had to get a very short hair cut to compensate. 😁
You had me at "I love trash." Instantly subscribed. This is me, hoarder of all crafty things. I literally got about 25 kg of yarn packed in 5 gigantic trash bags from an older person that gave it away for free.
Loved every single bit, except the part where I was reminded that I donated a PRISTINE set of 12 brocade butterfly placemats and matching runner after holding onto them for a decade, because I decided I'd never use them around food. 😭 Thank you for the inspiration!
The tie skirt is so cool, and what a fantastic bargain! And pockets! I think perhaps the placemat stuff is tapestry fabric? I love making stuff out of recycled materials, even though I have a lot of actual fabric. Earlier this year I made a dark purple jacket and the front & cuffs are wool from a pencil skirt, and the back & sleeves are striped cotton from some napkins. (also, tiny bit of unsolicited seam ripper advice - if you're using it on a seam that has other material underneath it's safer to put the end with the red ball underneath the seam so it doesn't snag the other material.)
That jacket sounds sick!! And thanks for the seam ripper tip, idk why I never realized that. I always assumed the red ball was like a safety thing? Bc it's like a warning color I guess? But that makes so much more sense, I'll have to remember that for the future.
@@morningmercury-amhg there's some really good seam-ripping tutorials here on the Tube. For flat seams, you can actually put that red ball end between the two layers and run it thru the seam like slicing thru gift wrap. It's way quicker than unpicking each stitch.
0:50 ive been doing all sorts of crafts my whole life (mostly because of my mom), and i live in a community with lots of elderly ladies who also do lots of crafts. the amount of random crafts supplies i have gotten over the years just from stuff people dont want is incredible
I’ve never seen this channel before and I’m enjoying it. I also like to make garments from found material. Right now I’m making a floor length circle skirt out of a 1970s sheet. It’s pretty wonderful. At 5 foot two, I can get a full sized floor length circle skirt out of a sheet without piecing anything. It’s great! Tie skirt: I think what I can gather is that you left the stiffening in the front part of the ties but you took it out of the narrower parts you had to reverse? That’s how it looks like it’s flowing. Very nice. I am teaching six young people how to sew their own clothes. I am 65 and five of these people are millennials and one is in fifth grade. I think someone in the group probably would love to make a tie skirt… and this is the nicest one I’ve seen. The reason I haven’t made a tie skirt yet for myself is that is I don’t usually like the colors of ties on the market. I really like bright colors but I’m not a red person. I’ve done a lot of “acid” dyeing of wool and silk so I wonder if I should see if I can overdye some silk ties with the same color to unify the product in a color I’d like better. For me, deep teal, or dark purple are really good overdyes. Did you use all of the ties you bought? You basically bought 30 ties or almost that? I’m still trying to figure out the structure of how you connected the ties together on the back. Best way to figure it out is to get my hands on a few.
Glad you're enjoying the channel! You're correct, I removed the stiffening interlining from the skinny parts of the ties to be able to open them up to make the box pleats, but left it in the wider parts so they would keep their weight and body. I bought 29 but I only ended up using ~24 (of course I cut all of them in half at the start 🙄 have to find another project for those!). To connect them I just topstitched the wide pieces to the skinny pieces (just through one 'wing' of the skinny piece trifold, not through the center). I'm sure there's a cleaner way to attach them that avoids visible topstitching but I didn't bother lol. I also think messing with the actual fabric is the best way to figure it all out but hopefully my explanation makes sense and is at all helpful!
i was feeling eh on the tie skirt reveal and then audibly exclaimed "POCKETS" in glee the rest are pog, the skirt and corset are AMAZING like ready to wear haute couture vibes!!!!
I'm glad YT recommended your channel. What made me really watch was the tie skirt. 😍 I have bags full and will soon create clothing out of them. I love your skirt rendition with pockets. Great deal on them too. Will definitely be watching for more creations. Thanks for sharing. 😊
I just found you, YOU ARE SO TALENTED. I know you will go far. Great content, natural ,relaxing surrounds, just love your down to earth ,personality. Much love to you, Mel ❤❤❤❤❤
I have been collecting ties for about 3 years now to make a dress out of them. I've been fussy which ones I want to use. Just got a taz devil one yesterday at an op shop. Love what you are making.
They use to put fiberglass in things like drapes and other household items as a form of fireproof. I was highly allergic to fabric that had fiberglass in it and my mom had beautiful drapes throughout the house and we had to get rid of them and put curtains up
I loved the corset and skirt set, it came out so good! But I would say the tie skirt has such a unique charm to it, so if I had to pick a favorite it would have to be the tie skirt.
I made a tie skirt earlier this year for a fashion show! You did an excellent job!! I’ve never seen someone use the other side to mimic box pleats, so clever! And thank you for the first shirt pattern illustration, i will have to try that out!
This is the first video of yours I've seen and I wanted to compliment your editing! It's excellent, spot on! Your B-roll is great and you zoom in at good times to emphasis your humor, it just really stood out as the quality I would expect of a much large channel. So, good on you, you're doing great! I love the tie skirt, the idea to use the skinny ends as a pleat was genius.
The corset set for some reason reminds me of either Germanfest or Polishfest! They have similiar outfits. Great job! ❤ I never saw a tie skirt before either.
I just have to comment on this trend of grandma chic. All that stuff looks to my generation, Gen X, like the thing we would run the fastest from if we only could lol. Personally, I am not into cottage core because I lived through the 70s and don’t need to do it again. The same with this grandma stuff. When we were all young in the 80s and buying furniture, we would compare our furniture to grandma’s to be sure that it did not match in any way shape or form. It’s just so funny that you guys like it now, I wonder when you are older, if you will realize that it was pretty funny looking. Well, you do you, of course. I still like your video, even though you used grandma sofa fabric, lol.
I feel this! I'm earlyish middish millennial, and my aesthetic is closer to salvagepunk than cottagecore XD But I love videos from whimsical clothes makers lol (and historical fashion nerdery etc) and this creator is a total vibe
@@ItsAsparageese I don’t know about you, but I find myself watching videos that include styles that I don’t care for quite a bit. It’s not about the style, it’s about being instructed in the Sewing and Construction. Plus, it’s kind of an education of what other people are up to.
@@vernieplummer5148 Yes to all of that! Also, I think I just find it comforting to marinate sometimes in media that isn't super directly relevant to my main interests (although I did wind up getting into sewing after a long time watching sewing content lol) just because it's pleasantly no-stakes and detached from the rest of my day. That's most of what I used to love about makeup content until I just got bored with it, and it's why I love Drawfee and some other art channels.
@@ItsAsparageese Yes, I too have changed hobbies from watching different things. I have always wanted to quilt, and I started watching the quilt shows and really got into it.
Your content so far has great vibes of Rachel Maksy (of course) and also Simone Giertz a bit. I'm excited to see your videos over time as your fandom fills out and we learn more of your interests and ideas. I think you're on a fantastic track 😊 (I love your Zuko sticker btw!)
I just love your tie skirt. That box pleating worked perfectly. The pockets were unusual, and I really enjoyed them too with their little black outline. That was great work.
I have 8-9 ties that are all Tabasco sauce themed. I will collect more ties to coordinate with them for a future project. I liked the quail top and tie skirt equally, and the corset / skirt project turned out well even though not my thing. Thank you for this bunch of fun.
You doing something super labor-intensive, realizing you did it inside out, and giving up for the day is deeply relatable. Finally, a TH-camr who's just like me fr
OK, I think all of the items turned out great, but the tie skirt is just genius and soo cool! There are so many cheap ties in thrift stores around me, now I'm seriously considering them as material and not only accessories!
I have a terrible fear of needles so certain parts of this were hard to watch but you made it very fun and interesting with your explanations so I stayed!!! I love the tie skirt the most, all the ties were so cute and it looked so good in the end!!
"My ties were deboned" is such a funny phrase to me haha. I also feel like you could use the solid horizontal line at the top of the bowling pattern (that's about 1/2 way down the skirt) as an extra little mini outside pocket. The teatowel top is really cute and I think could be possible for a beginner sewist like myself.
I feel this. I now have enough hoards from the thrift shop that I can start making more things with them. It’s exciting. That said, I love what you made. Very fun with some vintage vibes
I've dreamed of making a tie-skirt for literally decades! I even bought a bunch of ties years ago and planned it all out. I could never get up the courage to cut them, lol. Kudos to you for completing it! So nice to see it actually happen for someone 😍
I chuckled at the $3 buck dance cause ik the feeling where you already know your getting a deal and then that deal is super MAXED! Ehh ehh I would do a little diddy dance too
I don't even sew but I have wanted to see someone make a skirt out of silk ties for literal decades. Because I have zero guidance, I've recently learned to crochet instead. Much easier to learn on YT. Baby steps. In the meantime, I've subbed so maybe when I figure out where to start with the sewing I'll know where to go for the projects. These are exactly the thrifted type I'll be looking for. Also you're hilarious and your cat is adorable. Thanks for making my insomnia worthwhile!
By 3:00 I was IN! The tie skirt was almost obligatory when I was at Uni in the 80s. It had to contain at least one rude one. The prep involved was ENORMOUS. We can get them here for $1 each. Silk is more expensive. $2. Occasionally I still buy the odd one if it’s beautiful for my husband and wonder its history. The stays are fantastic, love them. The fibreglass makes sense as it would have been heat resistant and seen as a plus. Your poor hands!
Such cool designs! Makes we want to use the sewing machine I got almost a year ago and have been too intimidated to actually use. Were you watching @PricklyAlpaca's armour video?
Thanks! I was super intimidated by sewing machines at the beginning too, you just gotta take the plunge and try it! And yes, we stan Kira in this household lol.
“I call it my Slirt” immediate IMMEDIATE subscribe
I burst out laughing at that one.
Same.
Made me snort
Same. THESE are the types of channels I want to see on YT.
I slorted at that one
Tie skirts were really popular in the 1970s, my mother wore one and lots of women had them back them. ❤
I remember.
I always wanted to make one but have never gotten around to it!
Yess, my grandma had one that had a green, grey, and very orangy brown, sadly it was too damaged to wear (literally falling apart bc it wasn't storaged properly since mom never wore it) when I found out
“I love trash” respectfully said “I am a human possum” for some reason to me, love it lol keep up the good work with keeping fabric ecosystems thriving 😂
My Sewing Room is now renamed “ Possum Parlour” 😊
See I've decided that I'm just doing a signature thread color. Kinda like red bottom shoes
ha, yep. I bought 30€ of ivory polycotton thread recently because I couldn't decide on a shade so i'll probably just be sticking to off-white and blue-ish black for everything i make because price, effort and enjoyment overpower my perfectionism by far.

@@MeskaruneI think every generation since the 60s has rediscovered turning ties into skirts/dresses. My mum made one in the 60s. I kinda love it!
"Stay out of the closet! It's pride month!" Love it. You sound like me talking to my cat.

A tie skirt....WITH POCKETS?! You've made a dream item right there
Toe skirts were a rage in the 70's. I remember well! I love how you put pockets in it!
Getting so much art stuff from people is the realest thing ever

Love the corset and matching skirt though you really knocked it out of the park with the tie skirt.
I was literally just thinking about how much I wished you would upload a video because I missed your content. Thank you for being cool!
*uno reverse card* no thank you! You're so sweet! I'll hopefully have a few more videos before the end of the year!
Okay I have had the prettiest place mats that I did not want to use as a place mat and now I know what to make with them thank you.
The tie skirt is my favorite!!! So stinking cute!!!!! I kinda wish there were bowling penguins, that would be pretty amazing! 😂❤
Thank you! And bowling penguins would be totally awesome! These tie companies don't know what they're missing...
How am I only just learning how to use a thimble correctly at 26 when ive been sewing for 14 years :o Also the corset skirt combo is my fav
you have been awarded the cool sewist title, enjoy being on my subscribed list queen 🙏🙏
i will bear this title with honor 🫡🫡
I absolutely loved all three creations. Great job. This makes me want to take up sewing again.
you had me at "slirt"
love how all the pieces turned out!!
I love the tie skirt. Maybe some small darts in the halter top would make it fit better.
Im glad TH-cam suggested this to me! I love those stays ❤ the floral napkins were such an incredible find.

All of the pieces turned out great, but I especially liked the tie skirt. It looks so cool!!
I love everything yyu made. The two piece suits you so much but the tie skirt is awesome

Fabulous innovation on the classic tie skirt !!
Awwwwwww what a beautiful kitty! Tell himb I love him. I love the tie skirt. I dunno why but it gives me hogwarts student vibes.

The pockets on the tie skirt are 10/10. Fantastic sewing all around 😍
They're all cute! But my fave is the tie skirt, too. 👍❤️
Amazing! You’re brilliant! 🥳🥰🤓🙌🏽
Amazing! Your diagrams and explanations are so clear!
Well done. Love reusing existing items rather than purchasing new. Good for the planet. Bravo!

I don't know what I like best - they are all so fabulous!
You know how sometimes pets look like their owners? Your cat matches you, both is vibe and colour.

By 3:00 I was IN! The tie skirt was almost obligatory when I was at Uni in the 80s. It had to contain at least one rude one. The prep involved was ENORMOUS. We can get them here for $1 each. Silk is more expensive. $2. Occasionally I still buy the odd one if it’s beautiful for my husband and wonder its history. The stays are fantastic, love them. The fibreglass makes sense as it would have been heat resistant and seen as a plus. Your poor hands!
Such cool designs! Makes we want to use the sewing machine I got almost a year ago and have been too intimidated to actually use. Were you watching @PricklyAlpaca's armour video?
Thanks! I was super intimidated by sewing machines at the beginning too, you just gotta take the plunge and try it! And yes, we stan Kira in this household lol.
I love your talent and creativity. Looking forward to more.
I loved the corset mini skirt the best. Well done on all of your projects!
