My deepest condolences about your beloved puppies. Been there, done that, cried through the t-shirt. Sending hugs.
You shouting at my face- You need a Hood.- when I'm literally trying to hack to pattern to get a sweatshirt with a hood is peak timing.
I admire you choosing to be creative and seeking joy.
Grief visits us all and can feel debilitating and unending. I've found myself sinking into its bottomless depths at times this year too.
"I am the evidence that you love and were loved. ~grief"
Honestly, thanks for that saying. My beloved cat likely has cancer. I found out about a month ago, though it feels like yesterday. The twisted part is that he is what saved me from the darkness, so it's like an extra kick to the gut.
The true life of crafting with cats: hoods and hood shapes (kitty), fabric (kitty), sponsor message (kitty), stitching and thread discussion (kitty), godet stitching (kitty), discussion of main back seam (kitty), kitty(kitty). We occasionally have to call a "time out for Kittynanigans" here.
I'm so sorry for your lost. Our fur babies are always precious.
In French, "little red riding hood" is called "le petit chaperon rouge." I've been confused about the "chaperon" part because that's not a word that comes up if you look up "hood" in a French dictionary. You just explained it lol. Thanks! This solves the mystery.
French person here - yeah it's an old fashioned term for specifically this kind of hood - you couldn't use it for the hood on a coat for example, it has to be a seperate garment.
I lost my beloved cat almost exactly a year ago today; we were children together. i cant imagine losing two babies around the same time. I’m so sorry for your loss.
So sorry to hear you sad news. I don't know if you've heard this before but I hope it helps..."There is a cycle of love and death that shapes the lives of those who choose to travel in the company of animals. It is a cycle unlike any other. To those who have never lived through its turnings and walked its rocky path, our willingness to give our hearts with full knowledge that they will be broken seems incomprehensible. Only we know how small a price we pay for what we receive; our grief, no matter how powerful it may be, is an insufficient measure of the joy we have been given.” ― Suzanne Clothier
Firstly, I'm so sorry for your loss, it's always difficult to lose a furry family member and losing 2 the same year must be so heartbreaking, long distance hugs to you and your family.
Secondly, I love that your cat is trying so hard to be a good little sewing assistant, it's like they know you need the extra support right now.
Sad for you for your loss, I know that losing pets is real grief. 💔 I love that your sweet kitty is there to comfort you, I loved every time she popped in. 😻
There are seasons of life that are damn sure tougher than others, even just from having so many unexpected things thrown at us all at once. I so admire you leaning into working and making something indulgent and beautiful for yourself. Sending support and healing.
My condolences for losing your puppers. I lost my dog of 16 years last year.
I'm loving the green fabric, always inspirational for me to try new styles.
A short hooded cape was the first real garment I ever made and if you’re ever looking for an excuse to make even more of them I fully recommend making one in a waterproofed fabric. I used a waxed cotton and it’s such a useful garment, just covering your head and shoulders with a regular coat or jacket underneath keeps you surprisingly dry, also wearing a hood in the rain really helps with that mysterious wanderer vibe. x
My hood gets the most use shoveling snow, as it lets the overheatedness out while still preventing freezing.
I haven’t even watched the whole thing yet and I’ve already sent this to my partner as a “what if” for my new larp character
No words. Just long distance hugs. Cute hood.
My condolences about your pups,,, sending love and hugs, love your work
Sending you hugs for your fur babies xxx❤❤
Loved your little apprentice making sure that the fabric isn't sliding around (and that your posture is the most inconvenient) 😂 What I really want to know though is why there are liripipes on hoods in the first place! I can't imagine them being particularly practical in any way...
I've heard that they could be used to tie the hood onto a belt when not in use!
I think that they are mostly for looks, but yeah, they are handy for tying the hood more securely around your head/face, and you could always store a few coins in there.
Hugs, dear, so much love on fast legs breaks your heart when they leave.
I saw an awesome video from a medievalist who showed how to wear the hood with a tail for both open and more closed wearing, so breezy and dry vs cold, wet, and awful weather.
I’m so sorry about the passing of your furry friend 😢❤ And to lose both of them in the same year is heartbreaking 😞❤️
Also, I kept snorting about your cat joining. "Mom, I'm helping!" 😅
We're in a similar boat, it seems. 💔 My sweet soul dog, who was the same age as Jean-Luc, passed away recently at the beginning of August. I feel your pain and am so sorry that you lost both of your beloveds the same year/time. We still have 2 cats, but they are more my partner and son's, and I'm a dog lady so it's just not the same without my soul dog's dog energy in the house. I found an antique-style beveled glass locket on Etsy that I have a photo of her and some of her fur in that makes me feel close to her. I also got a necklace to hold some of her ashes, but I haven't had the guts to open the bag of her ashes yet, they're in a very beautiful box though. Sending you lots of love and I hope you are finding special ways to you to keep them close to your heart, too, during this energy transition. 💖🫂💖 Okay, now to watch the rest of the video (had to leave a comment right away!)
I love the hair braid extension with the rings! It’s so clever
My condolences for your loss. Having cherished pets cross the rainbow bridge is not easy.
My condolences for the loss of your two fur-babies! Losing one is rough, so I can only imagine how it is losing two 💔
My deepest condolences on Jean-Luc and Kathryn crossing the rainbow bridge. May they romp and play, without the aches of age, in the beautiful meadow on the other side of the rainbow bridge where they wait for you to cross into the afterlife together.
There’s a wonderful poem called Dogs Never Die, They Are Sleeping In Your Heart. by Ernest Montague. It will make you cry, but it brought me a lot of comfort when I lost Oscar.
Oh sweet Morgan, I’m so sorry for your loss!!!! Hugs to you!!!
Please accept my deepest condolences on the loss of your dogs. I can empathize with your pain. I loved this project and definitely want to make one to go with my 14th century kirtle! Your helper is adorable! I’ve always thought those “hairless” breeds look super cute in sweaters❤
Awww. Please accept this e-hug if you would like it. All the best to you and Mr. Donner. Also, thank you for all these wonderful tutorials and ideas.
I'm so very sorry for your loss. Our cat passed away this summer, so I know the pain. Best of wishes to you.
I was just looking at your shoemaking video... because I really like the red open hood you wear! Something similar might end up being my first medieval sewing project, honestly.
Bear hugs with my condolences for your fur babies. It is never easy.. I am glad for your timing on the hoods as I am thinking of making one for work as it gets very cold on the back.
I"m so very sorry for your loss. Losing pets is always so difficult. Lots of love for you and Mr Donner. And the hood is so cute!
It is never easy to lose family, including the fur kind.
Both Jean-Luc and Kathryn will be amongst the most honoured creatures in Sto'vo'kor. Sending you much love ❤
(Also, yes - everyone *does* need a hood! I reenact, and my Viking Skjoldehamn hood (yes, I KNOW it's disputed) is the COMFIEST thing I own)
Getting Hyrule Warriors LINKLE vibes. All you need is 2 crossbows and an army of chickens
loosing your pups is one of the hardest things. my last one was with us for 16 years. she was a goof ball and a sweet old girl, she made messes and made us laugh. cry long and hard, because those are the tears of long years of love.
Big hugs to you an Mr. Donner in support through loosing your furry friends. I'm sure they had an absolutely wonderful time living with you and will always be fondly remembered❤
So sorry for your loss. Sending you love and thank you for your content.
I am sorry for your loss. I do love your videos and your hard work. The best to you.
This makes me want to pick my medieval hood back up (made of a purpley red striped worsted wool with soft linen lining, and the seams done over in wool braid)! It'll be so warm for the upcoming winter... BUT I HAVE A SKIRT TO FINISH FIRST
Your hairstyle at the end - the braids in hoops, are the coolest ever!
Beautiful! Love your Design Choices! I can easily see me wearing such a Hood!
Also love your stitching choices.
*Big hug* for your grief....
I notice your cat is making itself present! Ha! ❤
Split between Helping you and the cat's grieving for the missing pups.
And your bright green is super cheerful!
PS I missed you!
My adult daughter and her husband had to say goodbye to their golden doodle, Roscoe, last month. We have not been okay. We are slowly getting better. I have noticed that the rest of the animal family, even the ones who didn't much like Roscoe, have hovered close and snuggled more as the three of us recover. I love the hood you made and hope that you will find peace in the new part of your journey.
"You need a hood!" While I'm literally knitting an 1856 opera hood from Godey's Magazine! But you're right, I probably need a Medieval hood too.
Sorry for your loss. Your kitty seems to be working to give you comfort. I love your hair!
I am so sorry for your loss. you and yours are in my thoughts and prayers.
Oh...oh no. So sorry about your loss. My cat was just given a number of hard diagnoses a few weeks ago, and he's only 12 (that's not that old for a cat, most of ours have made 18-20+), but also he's practically a part of me, and it was heartbreaking.
I honestly have been thinking about a cape or cloak for winter, so this is perfect! I know they aren't the same, but in the same clothing group? My only problem is that I'm a prolific sweater, particularly from the head, and I'm generally not outside long enough for my sweat to subside and a hood become necessary.
I'm so so sorry about your dogs. They never ever live long enough.
Your blouse is spectacular here!
My condolences on your beautiful greyhounds ! So sad to lose both of them 😢
My wife and I watch all your videos, and we want to send you our love and sympathies for your loss.
Thank you so much for all you do!
My condolences on your loss of puppers.
Love the hood!!! So whimsical 😊
So sorry for your losses, Morgan. I hope you keep finding joy in the things you love and keep being the ray of sunshine that you are 💕
So sorry for the loss of your precious doggies. I don't know if it's any consolation but your videos give so much comfort and entertainment to so many. I hope you feel the love being sent ❤️
I'm so very sorry about your dogs' passing. I tend to game through my grief, but crafting seems like a nice alternative.
I'm so sorry to hear about your dogs, I can relate, sadly.
I made myself a hood with a very long (pieced) tail for at home, so cotton lining and fleece hood. It really is very nice and warm. I'm planning on making a hooded shawl/capelet sort of frankenstein thing, with Victorian soutache inspired designs, tassels, and simple medieval squares and triangles for the pieces. We'll see if it actually works the way I'm planning it to, but so far I'm fairly sure I can pull it off. 😊
I'm so sorry about your pups. You gave them a good life and loved them them well.
I'm so sorry about the pups. ❤️❤️
I’m so incredibly sorry for the loss of your dogs❤ losing two in a year is the hardest thing❤
A wild Morgan has appeared!
Ps: my condolences for your puppers, i lost my oldest a few years back too, it really sucks but it gets better
So sorry for losing your fur babies, but they had long, lovely lives with you! I’m sure you were a great doggy mom.
Aww you have greyt-hound, i too have one called Bobby... condolences, they will be watching you.... they will always be with you....I know❤
So sorry for your loss. (I also lost two dogs within six weeks, in 2021, and it just really sucks.) The hood is adorable, thank you for the video!
Yes! I wear a re-enactment hood out in winter because it is a warm and practical bit of kit. But the one with the short lyre pip - I'm not an exhibitionist!
Fall vibes eh... I'm sure Rachel Maksy will be proud.
That, or she'll go all goblin about stepping onto her turf lol.
En Garde! ⚔ jk, plenty of Fall to go around 💖
@@MorganDonner Lol pretty sure she'd be down for a LARP swords at high noon duel.
Sorry for your loss. I lost my Italian Greyhound 2 years ago and it's rough when you've had them for so long
Especially me
Tbh I've been wanting one for a long time but didnt have the time or energy but I'm feeling the inspiration already and know that you just make the best tutorials so let's goooo
I'm so sorry for your family's losses. My heart goes out to you. ❤❤❤
excellent timing- i'm planning a hood for renfaire myself! sending your kitty many forehead kisses
I'm so sorry for your loss, there is nothing a comment section can do to make it hurt less but I hope you can find some solace in knowing you are not alone
1 - I'm so sorry about your loss with those beautiful pups ❤
2 - those earrings are GORGEOUS.
3 - if you don't mind me asking, is there a story behind that super cute red beaded necklace? It's like your signature jewellery!
4 - You're cat tickles me, I love it 😂❤
1 - thank you 💔
2 - thank you ❤️
3 - it's based on coral necklaces in a lot of 16th century paintings, but especially Vincenzo Campi's genre paintings of working women. I made it after buying the beads with my mom at a gem show around 15+ years ago. It's honestly a little small at this point lol, which is why I've added the ribbon.
Oh im realizing a hijab cut on the bias would probably drape so nicely if made out of something thin like a silk 😍 idk much about hijabs and properly wearing them, but it seems like a cool idea.
Morgan, your videos are always such a huge source of joy to me! Your energy in the videos is always so positive and the projects are always very exciting. And while you definitely attain a high level of craftsmanship (and historical accuracy when appropriate), you also make sewing very fun, playful in a way.
I am deeply sorry to hear about your pets. Hopefully you find some solace in the fact that as much as this hood project has helped you, it is going to help many other people find joy.
I have a Skojoldehamn hood that I wear with my winter coat - it's great, the back of my head is so warm!
Sending big hugs to ease your heartache, thank you for the hood tutorial, it's always lovely to see your smiling face and watch someone do what they love x
I have just the right fabric in mind for one of these... TO THE STASH!!!!!!☝️😁
Morgan, losing a pet is so hard. I lost my cat a few months ago. He was my baby. It was so hard. My thoughts are with you. ❤
I'm so sorry for your loss. It brought tears to my eyes.
So glad to see you back I definitely want to make a medieval hood for a ren Faire ❤
With winter coming I sorta want to make one in fluo yellow
I get so happy when I see one of your videos pop up in my subscription feed!
I worked ren faires for 15 years and I'll defend to my dying day that cloaks and capes are stupid and impractical. But hoods? Hoods are amazing. Hoods are beyond amazing.
O no.. I’m so sorry for your loss ❤️😢 sending love and hugs
The cloak turned out really cute🥰
Thanks for always being so inspiring Morgan 💖 I've made one of these hoods for my husband's reenacting but I think I'll make one for myself this week.
its so funny i cut out a medieval hood a couple days ago and was stitching it together when i saw your video pop up. now we made our hoods together :3
btw i went for a contrasting forest green thread on mint green fabric out of which i also made a tunic to match and i love it :D
I am so sorry to hear about your fur babies. I used to love watching them help you with all of your projects.
Oof, this is the video that made me realise I need to branch out into other time periods, I mainly focus on Edwardian / Belle Epoque but they don't have hoods! You're right- I need a hood!
I'm so sorry about your dogs. I was worrying about you because you hadn't put out a video for a while ❤
It’s hood season!
I’m sorry about your fur babies, it’s really tough to lose a furry friend (I can’t imagine two so close together) but I hope you’ll be okay. I just adopted a kitty recently, he is young but I’m not ready for him going one day, anyway, hope you feel better soon. Go hoods! 💞
I saw this and immediately went “ah Morgie!” As if we’re like old friends 😭 ❤️
Nice. I dagged mine around the bottom edge. I wear it most winters when we get snowy weather.
So sorry for your loss, sending big hugs xx
I made the previous hood you did with a grey pinstripe and a spot of Assassin's creed flair.
New hood!
So sorry to hear about the furkids ❤❤😊
Oh no! Not your sweet pups! 😢🐶🐶😢 Rest in everlasting peace! 🕊️
So sorry about your pups, much love to you and Mr. Morgan Donner. Loved this project though! Now I want to make one (it's probably quite beyond my abilities)
I’m so sorry for the loss of your sweet puppies
Oh man, perfect. I tried to make a hood and the mantle came out all crazy and uneven. Big agree that everyone needs a hood.
Morgan, you should place some extra fabric on the table for kitty to lay on while you work. Maybe that way, you’ll be left alone 🤣😂
I promise that there's plenty of the same fabric on the table, as well as lots of lovely cat-able surfaces in the room! But as soon as I turn on the camera, I swear she comes running.
Happy to see a new video!! Love this chick.
