Action reveals are a lot of fun. They give the pieces life. I think if we could end with piece on display, so we can appreciate the item itself and all your hard detail work could be a nice wrap up. Just a thought.
thank you!! I'm LIVING for all the princess-adjacent style trends that are popular now, I'm glad everyone collectively decided to say fuck it and live their best life 😂
You keep spoiling us with amazing content! Love the stays, love the color scheme, love the addition of your grumpy feline witch familiar. The reveal is like a mini cottagecore movie, so-so satisfying to watch (even though your bare shoulders made me shudder, I guess it's much warmer where you are right now 🥶). And I've said it before, but your style is gorgeous. Looking forward for all of the amazing things you've working on!
aah thank you so much, you're so sweet!! 😊💕 it just got cold this week! but when I went to the farm it was still super warm, I even brought a sweater just in case 😅
I would like to respectfully request for this video and other earlier corset/stay making patterns get added to your stay/corset playlist. They may not be as in depth of a pattern review as the new ones, but they're still helpful in figuring out which patterns are good or perform as expected and which are more trouble. I'm currently trying to plan out my next stays and this video was really helpful, but I almost missed it because it wasn't on the playlist. Thank you so much for your content and time, it's really appreciated!
Love the reveal style. Thank you for that gorgeous shot of those ducklings! Thanks also for the tip regarding using ribbon to bind. Lovely stays- beautiful fabric. I've been considering making some stays for awhile now- I prefer those to corsets and am very interested in making some 1850s French workwear style stays or jumps, so thanks for your insight.
thank you so much! haha I'm glad you liked the ducklings, they were so cute I just had to include them! I'm also glad you got some useful information from my video 😊I looove stays I want to include them more in my wardrobe! I definitely think stays are more generally wearable as outerwear than corsets as well. Do you post your work anywhere? I'd love to see any stays that you end up making!
oh nooo I've only been in San Diego in the winter and that was verging on too warm for me 😅 I feel like I have the opposite of SAD, I get so much happier with the cold and dreary weather haha. I hope you get to escape to some cooler places occasionally!
I have been thinking about buying the plus size version of this exact pattern! I think after watching your amazing video, I have finally decided to take the plunge! I can't wait to see the rest of your costume! It's going to be great! :D
Happy October! Definitely the best month (but it's my birthday month too, so I am a bit biased). I love the stays, and the fabric choice, I am super excited to follow the creation of your witch outfit 🖤 I liked the style of reveal, its nice to see how a garment looks when you're actually moving around in it, though I dont object to a more static reveal as well. Looking forward to some autumn blog style segments as well!
I have always been so jealous that my brother's birthday is in October!! Mine is in April, the best I could hope for was that it would fall on spring break but otherwise it's just miserable for my allergies haha 😅 thank you for watching and for always having nice things to say!! 💕
Happy Spooky Month!! I absolutely love your fabric! It's so so so pretty. And the stays themselves are so fun. The reveal was super cute and I really enjoyed it!!
love this! I'm new to sewing and looking to make my first set of stays, any suggestions on what type of fabric to use for the stays and lining? love all of your videos :)
you can use pretty much any tightly woven cotton for the lining (so like not a gauze or something), for the outer or support fabric something like twill or canvas, if your outer is not your support you can use anything but a quilting cotton will be easiest for your first pair
I HAVE to be able to reuse the items I make. I LOVE all the costubers that create historical clothing but I would feel SO guilty not being able to use it again
yeah, coming mostly from cosplay (when I sew for myself) I get to re-wear costumes maybe a few times which really isn't enough and kind of sad! I have taken apart old costumes to re-use things like beads and closures, but I definitely want to sew more things I can wear frequently! I've gotten a lot more into slow fashion lately and can't really afford to replace a whole new wardrobe by purchasing all of it so I want to put my skills to good use 😊
Personally I like reveals that show the piece in action as well as still and not manipulated. It's nice to see how it sits when you're still as well as in motion :)
this video is around 6 months old, i've made an effort to do longer reveals in my more recent videos! that said, you can see more pictures of these stays on my instagram, i'm minjalinjee on there as well. 😊
This is so cute! I love seeing the outfit elements out in the world and getting to vicariously explore all the fun fall activities you're getting up to. I'm impressed by the number of alterations you made to the Stays pattern! It gives me confidence to make bolder changes on some patterns that I have.
thank you! aah I'm glad the fall activities are fun for not just me haha 😅 and yess! changing patterns is so useful, and the only way to get better is practice!
thank you!! and yess I'm so excited for renfaire, I have another costume I'm working on for attending this year, but I'm trying to build a general costume wardrobe to go lots of times next year!
Super cute! I’m getting ready to try the same pattern for my first pair of stays, very excited but I know I’m gonna have to alter it so much to fit my shape, hoping they turn out as nice as yours
They are so pretty! I liked the reveal, but I think it would be nice if you combined this type of reveal with a studio. That way you see it in action and you see the close up details. But anyway, it looks gorgeous
I did make one! My chemise is super sheer so I agree, definitely good to have one. I just didn't wear it in this reveal since the dress is already opaque 😊
Ooh, so pretty! I've been experimenting with making some boned vests/ stays from my bodice block. I hope they turn out even a fraction as cute as yours! Lovely work :)
not silly! I had this fabric in my stash so I'm not 100% on the fiber type but my first guess is linen, second guess would be cotton 😊 it's definitely a natural plant fiber.
I’m making my first pair of stays right now and I’m also using dark fabric! I can’t figure out a good way to mark the boning channels on the dark fabric without leaving permanent marks. Anyone have any ideas?
depending on the type of fabric I either use a white tailors pencil, a white chalk pencil or just a graphite pencil. the white chalk pencil will definitely not leave any marks but it also doesn't stick around very well, while the graphite will definitely stay forever but if it's getting stitched over it usually isn't visible
@@moth.faerie I love stash fabric! I dug through mine last week looking for lining and reminded myself I have fabric for about 7 un-started projects 🤣🤣
I know you sized down your Alice corset and that seemed to be the right choice, did you do the same with these stays, or would you say they're more true to size?
@@moth.faerie yeah I was considering doing that just because I dont think I perfectly fit in their size range 😅 worst case scenerio I can do a back lacing panel (which honestly on the pattern hacks I've seen for this look Great) Thank you so much, this is honestly the video that made me want to finally bite the bullet and just make the pattern

You always spend a lot of time talking and some time cutting out, but not so we can see what you are doing...and no time sewing...so we can see how you do it. I sure wish you were more into the making and less into the talking about where you are wearing it...Our own attempts will be going different places...and may even have different reasons. So that hardly matters to us so much. It's the making...the part you hardly ever show...This is just feed back...probably no one else will think to give you...and of course, it's just one person...Your work is always quite a quality product...I would just like to see more of that quality process on the videos.

thank you for the feedback! I will definitely keep that in mind for next week, I'm shooting the final reveal tomorrow 😊
I LOVE the reveal style and I can't wait to see the whole outfit! The stays look amazing!!!
thank you, I'm glad you liked it! thank you for the feedback I appreciate it!! 😊
Your stays are lovely!! I'm so glad they're having this moment right now, they always create such a beautiful look. And I love your spooky sweater!

I don't like hot weather, either. Autumn in San Diego is salt in the wound.

I definitely recommend this pattern!! I'd love to see it when you do make it, do you post to instagram or anything?
Where did you get your dress from under the beautiful Stay?
Superbe comme tout vos tutos 😍😍😍..... dommage qu’il ni ai pas la traduction
Hi how should i get pattern?
The stays are beautiful. Really well done. The reveal was lovely.

@@moth.faerie sounds like some exciting things to come!
Personally I like reveals that show the piece in action as well as still and not manipulated. It's nice to see how it sits when you're still as well as in motion :)
I'll keep that in mind! I feel like I have trouble incorporating both so I'll definitely have to practice at that 😊
Can we get more footage of the actual clothes in the reveal cause I still don't know what the stays really look like
this video is around 6 months old, i've made an effort to do longer reveals in my more recent videos! that said, you can see more pictures of these stays on my instagram, i'm minjalinjee on there as well. 😊

I’m currently binge watching all of your content ❤
They're beautiful as well as the setting for the reveal, living all my Halloween dreams through you
The farm looked like a ton of fun!
it was! I had a great time 😊
Is the white fabric you use for the mock up interfacing? If so what brand do you use?
Thank you in advance! ❤️
it's coutil, I prefer buying from corsetmakingsupplie.com 😊
They are so pretty! I liked the reveal, but I think it would be nice if you combined this type of reveal with a studio. That way you see it in action and you see the close up details. But anyway, it looks gorgeous
thank you! and thank you for the feedback, I really appreciate it!
Those stays are beautiful i think a plain black stomacher would be great to have on hand just incase since this is just outerwear
I did make one! My chemise is super sheer so I agree, definitely good to have one. I just didn't wear it in this reveal since the dress is already opaque 😊
Idk why “I don’t wanna be a witch without a hat” made me laugh so hard
haha i'm glad you i could make you laugh 😊
Ooh, so pretty! I've been experimenting with making some boned vests/ stays from my bodice block. I hope they turn out even a fraction as cute as yours! Lovely work :)
thank you!! aah I'm sure they'll turn out great! Do you post to instagram or anything?
Unfortunately no Instagram or anything. When I'm done I'll comment and you'll just have to take my word for it!
I don’t know if this is a silly question but what type of fabric did you use for the stays?
not silly! I had this fabric in my stash so I'm not 100% on the fiber type but my first guess is linen, second guess would be cotton 😊 it's definitely a natural plant fiber.
Love this reveal style and the fashion fabric you used for the stays is gorgeous!
thank you! this is my favorite reveal I've done, I'm hoping I'll have more time to do more like this eventually 😊

I'm excited to see the whole outfit. And I liked the reveal style!
I'm excited to finish it! haha, thank you for watching, I'm glad you liked it!!
Your stays look so pretty! I am about to make two, one for a cosplay and another with a cute Halloween pattern just for fun.
aah thank you! I want to see!! are you going to post them on instagram?
@@moth.faerie that’s the plan! Hopefully they turn out well enough. I was supposed to start this weekend but my fabric got delayed until tomorrow.
Your fabric is amazing! I love these so much 😍
thank you! it was a really lucky find in my stash, I don't even remember where I got it 😅
@@moth.faerie I love stash fabric! I dug through mine last week looking for lining and reminded myself I have fabric for about 7 un-started projects 🤣🤣

It came out so beautiful!
thank you so much!
Very nice. I love it!
thank you!
I know you sized down your Alice corset and that seemed to be the right choice, did you do the same with these stays, or would you say they're more true to size?
the stays were true to size! I have a 26-27" waist depending on food lol and I bought a small which is recommended for 26-28"
@@moth.faerie Thank you so much! I'm having a real time of trying to settle on what size to buy and this helped
@@sirencipher1932 glad i could help! if you're between sizes I would definitely size down
@@moth.faerie yeah I was considering doing that just because I dont think I perfectly fit in their size range 😅 worst case scenerio I can do a back lacing panel (which honestly on the pattern hacks I've seen for this look Great)
