Does everything in sewing take waaaay longer than you think it will too? I think perhaps I should have split these up into 3 short videos... or maybe movie length is better? It's very 'fly on the wall listen to my whole thought process in style', so I'd love to know how you like it!
I love your videos. Your personality and enthusiasm are contageous. It helps me to know that you, as expert as you are, still find little things you would do differently next time. It is a process. I thought the wonky waist line on the jumper would work itself out. Im so glad it did. It was designed to sit a bit higher than waist. It turned out so very cute. I too love that top. I want one exactly like it, lol. My mother has passed some time back. She was a very thin and tall lady with great clothes. My two grown daughters took a few pieces but I still have a lot of her things. I had started seeing how I can redo some to fit me. Much like the red skirt. Most are very long so it will work if I get more confidence and try. I learn a lot watching your videos. Thank you. Keep up your good work.
YESSSSSS! Whatever you do I will enjoy it no matter what. You know your schedule, whatever works for you ...I know little videos can be fun/enjoyable as well as the longer ones. Mix it up, shorts & longs based on your needs. I hope this makes sense!!!
So excited to see today's video come up! Always happy for one of these...gathering ideas for my thrifted clothes. These days my clothes are either thrifted or me-made (and those from fabric I got at a thrift store or yard sale). Here's a story from my mom (1914-2001) that I think you'll enjoy. When my dad was away in the navy, mom and 2 of her sisters (husbands also away) shared a home in Northern New York state (think COLD). My oldest sister (born in 1937) was in kindergarten, and my mom was asked to come to talk to the teacher. The teacher explained to my mom that the area they lived in was quite poor due to the economy, and the other children just couldn't afford to dress as nicely as my sister did. Could my mom please try to dress her a bit "less nice"? My mom explained to the lady her clothes were all homemade...the little wool jumper that she wore that day was made from another garment that my mom had taken apart, and remade. The embroidery on the dress was covering up moth holes in the fabric! We've all enjoyed that story many times. My mom was the oldest of 14 children, and KNEW how to "made do"!! I love the heritage of creativity that my mom bestowed on us!!
Oh!!!!!!! So lovely to meet your beautiful sweetie pup!!!! Thanks for bringing her (?) him (?) on camera! 😍😎🥰 Exactly!!! That's what I said as soon as I heard you sacrificed a pocket. I said, "Well, you could keep one. 😀
I have to resize skirts all the time. So yes a tutorial on how you did the skirt would be great. Sometimes i put a constrast panels in and to add length a band on the bottom. Love your work
I've purchased a black swing skirt with embroiderey but needs a wider waist,without taking any off the waist,can i add a stretchy fabric on the waist,so it just becomes a pull on skirt?
Yes please! I have a few gorgeous skirts from the thrift store. A-line skirts, circular ones, one with darts in weird places... I would wear them much more often if they fitted just that little bit better. And resizing bigger And smaller please! Thank you!
I'm now "unpicking" all the time. I'd never heard that term before. Only knew seam riping. Absolutely love your videos. What an inspiration. Keep up the good work.
Between you and coolipra I am rethinking the donation bin. Since retiring I've cleared out my closet several times of the business clothing, don't need so many dresses, the tops and skirts I haven't touched since retirement. Yes, I still sew but comfortable clothes that feel good in the Florida heat replaces the a/c office wear. Now I've gained a few pounds and I hate getting rid of a couple; and I'm into rethinking what to do to save the garments. You help my creative juices flow. Thank you!!
Lol, my jaw literally dropped when you said you could make the skirt bigger by lowering the waist! I wish I'd seen this year's ago before I got rid of my "skinny" clothes.
I make skirts larger on the regular cause vintage skirts have the best material and tiny waists. (the smallest are also often on sale at the thrifts! Cause almost no one can fit them!) I take the waist band apart and use a new material on the backing of the waist band. That enables me to keep the pockets and lets me match seams if need be! I lose a tiny amount of skirt waist band height that way, but it is worth it! I love love this! Can't get enough of hearing your process!
Oh maaaaannnnnn!! When you opened up that organised lace drawer!!!!!!! As soon as I finish my latest sewing project, I'm gonna get my sewing room finished and organised properly!!! That is magnificent!!
I wouldn’t mind wearing that pinafore over a dress like the one you have on, so the problem with the length is not a problem anymore :-) And the contrast between the two fabrics is just great!
These are indeed lovely hon. I was so impressed with your organized ribbon stash! Best I have seen aside from the brilliant collection at The Way We Wore! I am supposed to rehab a couple of file cabinets for my husband, now I am thinking.... no, I think I shall do up an old dresser for now, I will let you know. You are such an inspiration, dear lady. People so need these skills! There are alarming statistics out there about our young people knowing so little how to take care of themselves. Here in America some folks spend twenty dollars or even much more per month on $4 clothes from Walmart, paying with credit cards that have 19% interest tacked on! Meanwhile a staggering number of households have sewing machines languishing with no one who knows how to use them. A message to gentlemen everywhere: learn at least the rudiments of sewing! I met my husband while attending a gloriously beautiful college on the rugged coast of Maine, the top of New England. In my dormitory there was a sewing machine, and while most of the girls understood the basics, no one could figure out how to configure the mechanisms and thread the foolish thing! Enter my lovely future husband, who became a rock star in popularity the moment he began threading the machine for ladies. Good thing I had snapped him up as my boyfriend the very first day of school! There was no Walmart, no place to buy anything new or used, and that first year the snow covered the first floor windows of the school. So adapt and mend we all did! Now that little school at Bad Little Falls has a much larger town around it, for good or ill, but I can imagine there are young ladies out there who wish they could repair or remake this or that, and a gentleman who can come to the rescue might just be well appreciated.
I’m so happy you used that steam technique to remove the holes where the “seam holes” were, I recently picked a pocket off a shirt I had and couldn’t figure out how to get the holes out. Now I do thanks.
The way you enlarged that skirt was like a revelation to me! I had never thought of going down the skirt before!! So clever. I’m definitely gonna keep that in mind when I’m thrifting. Thank you!
I love vintage clothes. This is the reason I am learning to sew in the first place. I'm a big fan of Victoriana and Edwardiana. I love the Ragtime background music in the video. I'm such a geek..lol
I used to volunteer in a Charity Op Shop & they get many hundreds more ties donated than they can sell, so they often have to toss bags full of them (it's almost the same with scarves). Sometimes I like to go & grab a few silk ones in elegant designs & keep on hand for small alterations like these. At way less than $1 each they're always a bargain & silk is super strong.
Great refashioning! You could put another line of vertical stitching on the waistband to even it out visually, and sew some decorative buttons between or on the two lines.
Excellent taste and styling. Pockets yes, losing them would be criminal. I would have salvaged the original pockets for facing and used other materials for the insides.
As a professional organizer and costumer (I know, I *know lol) I gasped when I saw your laces organized in your filing cabinet. My little heart went pitter-pat! :: swoon ::
Beautiful refashions! Enjoyed this video. I feel like we got 3 for 1. I like hearing the thought process behind your work. I would love to see a video on how to enlarge the waist on a skirt or circle skirt. That would be very useful.
@@Evelyn__Wood beautifully done. all 3 looked great though i thought the white top on its own made you look older however paired with the black dress fabulous. learning a lot through your videos. i am just starting out in sewing myself
I've always hated redoing clothing, but you've given me a new love. I had picked up a new skirt that is like your red one. It's too small in the waist and I haven't thought of making it larger from the top. Thanks a million for the tip.
Love you Evelyn....I liked all three pieces...its the fabrics...I live in Arizona and even now the temperature is 109°... Those kind of fabrics are perfect for our weather...
All three turned out to be lovely. I've never been a fan of garments with straps. The straps seem to never stay in place and always require fussing with. Your solution worked well. Enjoyed watching the process!
lol @ quick fix. Can soooo relate. pocket...one pocket contains two pieces; use these pieces for the two visible sides of pockets and add two new pieces of a similar fabric for the two pocket pieces that are not as visible. beautiful work, Evelyn.
Loved this video and the refashion on the white blouse was so simple in concept but so improved its look! It is like you brought the blouse to life while it was languishing before. Thank you for sharing your talent and creativity and for inspiring all sewers! 🌹
I really learned how to make a skirt fit, simple, but, an over looked step, I love thrift stores and goodwill stores for clothes, thrift stores are fun! Thank you for teaching! Looking for a video on how to make palazzo pants!
Wonderful refashions! Adjusting the arms on the blouse made such a big difference! I don't think I would attempt removing the waistband on a skirt--unless you provide us with a video! My favorite is the pinafore with that blouse--lovely!
I’m just now finding your videos. Through COVID and the world situation. I needed you and your videos. I already know how to sew (ha ha). I found you today 5/7/22, I’ve already watched 12 of your videos. Now maybe I can make my project correctly or resize all my thrift finds. So very glad I found you. Thank you very much
I love stuff like this - I bought a gorgeous velvet skirt with a ridiculously skinny waist - managed to turn it into a pinafore using the original darts to fit over the bust and adding some straps using some velvet scraps from my stash
You are a delightful breath of fresh air Evelyn! I so enjoy your videos. Your vision and creativity are inspiring and fun! Such a talented young lady. Thanks for your positive contributions to our lives!
Really like these, I would love to see a whole video on making skirts or even dresses (?) bigger! I often find things I really love that are small. P.S. I love the last hat!
I like the blouse. Nice and light for summer. I am long waisted and I have able to reposition belt loops on dresses to drop that waist a bit. Love the hats.
really enjoyed this video, I like to hear your thought process, like when the ribbon is too expensive, so you don't buy it and work out another solution 😄
Thank you love your videos. You really make good use of garments that may well be discarded. You are very beautiful and your vintage clothing suits you wonderfully. Thanks again. Meg
Loved what you did with those things. Yes random rules of sewing would make a great video. I used to sew. Haven't in years, but I do like to thrifting and some things need to be refitted. Enjoyed the video.

The longer the better in my opinion! You are a genius. The altered clothes fit so well - they look so expensive and exquisite!
I was home sick watching it. So it was enjoyable.
Great remakes. I enjoyed listening as you were thinking things thru and deciding how to solve each situation.
They were definitely all a success. Belts can be such time savers. I have one in every color.

I love your story, thanks for sharing.
Good sound advice, I am always sewing, unpicking then re sewing garments that don’t fit properly.
I will be following theses three steps from now on.
fun fact: "think how long it will take and double it" is also a rule of game design. and probably lots of other creative things!
So clever I would never have thought to have done that !
Really Beautiful result. I like to watch all your videos. Thank you for Sharing.
Oh!!!!!!! So lovely to meet your beautiful sweetie pup!!!! Thanks for bringing her (?) him (?) on camera! 😍😎🥰

@@elizabethdoran7626 if u can imagine it, it can be done !!
That navy blue and white checked house with the large ruffle is probably my favorite blouse you wear. So classy!
All of the finished garments are beautiful, but I particularly like the blouse.
Please please please do a tutorial on how you made the skirt bigger! Thanks!
Kelli Ann this!
Yes please
I'm now "unpicking" all the time. I'd never heard that term before. Only knew seam riping. Absolutely love your videos. What an inspiration. Keep up the good work.
That orange skirt/striped shirt combo has major Judy Garland 'Meet Me In St. Louis' vibes!
I didn't see it, until now!! 😅
My favourite was the pinnie. Thank you, another interesting video. What a wonderful character you are. Love you to bits!
That blouse looks like it'd be so versatile. Different skirt lengths and shapes to give the impression of different eras.
Between you and coolipra I am rethinking the donation bin.

Oh that pinafore! Just the most adorable. Nice work ma'am!
Yes, please do a detailed video on resizing a waist band to make it larger. Would be so helpful. Thanks.

MAJOR Mary poppins vibes with that red skirt outfit. ❤️❤️❤️
I too am baffled by the “sleeve string” thing. Just why? Such an improvement on that cute little blouse!
Oh maaaaannnnnn!! When you opened up that organised lace drawer!!!!!!! As soon as I finish my latest sewing project, I'm gonna get my sewing room finished and organised properly!!! That is magnificent!!
My favorite moment of every refashion video is always the before and after comparison.
That black pinafore is absolutely gorgeous on you when you styled it!! I want it 🙂
I wouldn’t mind wearing that pinafore over a dress like the one you have on, so the problem with the length is not a problem anymore :-) And the contrast between the two fabrics is just great!

You've adjusted your clothes beautifully...Thank you so much for sharing!😊💜🕊
The orange skirt styling has very strong Mary Poppins vibes. Love it!
I prefer the pinafore and white blouse - beautiful!!! :)
I’m so happy you used that steam technique to remove the holes where the “seam holes” were, I recently picked a pocket off a shirt I had and couldn’t figure out how to get the holes out. Now I do thanks.
And rub your finger over the holes so they relax back!
Olivia Roche I just wash my shirts after removing pockets, seamholes mostly gone.
I don’t know why but I’m mesmerized by the moves of your beautiful hands 😯💚😍
The way you enlarged that skirt was like a revelation to me! I had never thought of going down the skirt before!! So clever. I’m definitely gonna keep that in mind when I’m thrifting. Thank you!
Cutest puppy ever! They're so sweet looking!
The fashions were lovely too.
What a great video. I had to watch it again. All 3 garments are great but the jumper really fits you to a "t". Keep them coming.
You are absolutely fabulous! I would so wear the gorgeous black garment🤩🤩🤩
I LOVE that beautiful silk cotton blouse. Looks perfect for a hot and humid summer day.
Yeah, when you said quick fix for what you planned to do with the skirt I was like "waaait, how will she do that quickly and easily?!", haha.
Very smart! Our grand or great grand mothers would be very proud of you! Very nice to learn those tricks from you. Thanks!
Really love the idea to use old bed sheets and duvets to make up the prototype for the fitting.
I love them all, but I think the pinafore is my favourite. And the skirt. Actually all of them !
I love vintage clothes. This is the reason I am learning to sew in the first place. I'm a big fan of Victoriana and Edwardiana. I love the Ragtime background music in the video. I'm such a geek..lol
These all turned out so lovely! Nothing ever is a quick fix in sewing, that's for sure!
Wow, you can really see how much fun you had while posing and showing the clothes!
Really liked the video and the idea.
An idea for your pinafore: Find a thrift store garment to cut up and use for the "ribbon", or use a man's silk neck tie!
I used to volunteer in a Charity Op Shop & they get many hundreds more ties donated than they can sell, so they often have to toss bags full of them (it's almost the same with scarves). Sometimes I like to go & grab a few silk ones in elegant designs & keep on hand for small alterations like these. At way less than $1 each they're always a bargain & silk is super strong.
I enjoy all your videos, the longer the better.
Great refashioning! You could put another line of vertical stitching on the waistband to even it out visually, and sew some decorative buttons between or on the two lines.
Excellent taste and styling.
Pockets yes, losing them would be criminal.
I would have salvaged the original pockets for facing and used other materials for the insides.
I wad thinking that as plan B 😉
Excellent idea!
Or cut the waistband in half lengthwise and faced it with a different material (or a grosgrain ribbon for vintage vibes). Thus preserving the pockets!
As a professional organizer and costumer (I know, I *know lol) I gasped when I saw your laces organized in your filing cabinet. My little heart went pitter-pat!

That skirt is beautiful.
Beautiful refashions! Enjoyed this video. I feel like we got 3 for 1. I like hearing the thought process behind your work. I would love to see a video on how to enlarge the waist on a skirt or circle skirt. That would be very useful.

Toni I'm really glad your learning alot!! I hope it helps your creations come to life!!
The ribbon on the back of the pinafore just makes it ✅
Resizing a skirt would be a great video! 💃🏽
Love the orange skirt with the stripes top. But I have to say that pinafore is my favorite! I just love it!!
You're amazing! Oh so talented. I am speachless.
Love you fashion choice. My favorite style as well.
I love your reaction to “plastic” ribbon.
I love the skirt and the pinafore!! Would love, love, love a tutorial on how to do the alterations on the skirt!!
I've always hated redoing clothing, but you've given me a new love. I had picked up a new skirt that is like your red one. It's too small in the waist and I haven't thought of making it larger from the top. Thanks a million for the tip.
I loved the white blouse and the red skirt. The skirt with red striped blouse was so sharp.
Did you refashion ref/why blouse you wore with ref skirt? It now has neck bow.
Razor blades are amazing for unpicking !! I learnt from an old boss and it's now a life saver!
Love you Evelyn....I liked all three pieces...its the fabrics...I live in Arizona and even now the temperature is 109°... Those kind of fabrics are perfect for our weather...

Loved all three ‘fixes’ - wish I was as slim as you, everything looks good on you.
I think I especially liked the blouse...love the fashion.
I think your theme song should be the one about dancing with the Prince of Wales from the 1930’s. Enjoyed the video as usual!
lol @ quick fix. Can soooo relate. pocket...one pocket contains two pieces; use these pieces for the two visible sides of pockets and add two new pieces of a similar fabric for the two pocket pieces that are not as visible. beautiful work, Evelyn.
Omg, I just died and went to heaven seeing your organized laces! 😲😍
What a fabulous idea for making that smaller skirt fit. Great job!
Love that you found a way to extend the waistband! I have a pair of trousers that could use the same treatment!
I’m so glad to see the white voile soft blouse.
Quite a few garments are dowdy but the white sheer blouse is timeless and classy
Loved this video and the refashion on the white blouse was so simple in concept but so improved its look! It is like you brought the blouse to life while it was languishing before. Thank you for sharing your talent and creativity and for inspiring all sewers! 🌹

hey! I'm very much interested in a video on enlarging skirts(waistbands) ! :)
especially regarding button up skirts
I love stuff like this - I bought a gorgeous velvet skirt with a ridiculously skinny waist - managed to turn it into a pinafore using the original darts to fit over the bust and adding some straps using some velvet scraps from my stash
You are unbelievable! Absolutely love your work! 😘💜
Love them all and enjoyed how you talked your ideas out
A tutorial for making a waist bigger?? YES, PLEASE!!
Loved the refit and I vote yes to the tutorial on enlarging waistbands
Clever pocket! 💕
You are a delightful breath of fresh air Evelyn! I so enjoy your videos. Your vision and creativity are inspiring and fun! Such a talented young lady. Thanks for your positive contributions to our lives!
Aww thankyou! That makes day 😘
Really like these, I would love to see a whole video on making skirts or even dresses (?) bigger! I often find things I really love that are small. P.S. I love the last hat!
I love the green accessories on the black jumper! You look great in it too.!
Definitely up for seeing how you embiggen a circle skirt!
I love seeing the little changes that you make to garments because it gives me ideas for my own fixes!
I like the blouse. Nice and light for summer. I am long waisted and I have able to reposition belt loops on dresses to drop that waist a bit. Love the hats.

your nails match the skirt perfectly!
Yes! Do a tutorial on the skirt waistband ☺
These are always so wonderful! I would love to see a circular skirt resizing video!
In the red skirt and striped shirt you remind me of Mary Poppins from the sequel!!
I absolutely love that white blouse! I now dream of making something similar.
Thank you love your videos. You really make good use of garments that may well be discarded. You are very beautiful and your vintage clothing suits you wonderfully. Thanks again. Meg
Thanks for watching!!
Loved what you did with those things. Yes random rules of sewing would make a great video. I used to sew. Haven't in years, but I do like to thrifting and some things need to be refitted. Enjoyed the video.
I'm in love with that pinafore! Need one!
Now I want to see everything you refashion! Lovel work and I too enjoyed hearing your thought process.
