Sewstine
Sewing a Historical Frozen 2 Cosplay - Princess Annas Harvest Dress Skirt but make it 1890s
updated
Gown was sewn on a Babylock Soprano with all the embroidery done on a Babylock Venture!
In this video, I do a deep dive into a 1901-1905 dress by Jacques Doucet's Bee Gown, as well as other gowns in that era. I also talk about how I used an 1885 pattern to make the gown itself. All the sewing, digitizing, machine embroidery was done by me!
Dress modeled in Stan Mansion. stanmansion.com

Gown was sewn on a Babylock Soprano with all the embroidery done on a Babylock Venture!
In this video, I do a deep dive into a 1901-1905 dress by Jacques Doucet's Bee Gown, as well as other gowns in that era. I also talk about how I used 60 yards of silk gauze, silk taffeta, silk satin to make this gown. All the sewing, digitizing, machine embroidery was done by me! Apologies - I do not get the entire gown done since I lost my sewing supplies in the middle of a move but I do show how the gown would have mostly looked!

After that, I look in detail inot the dresses that Astraea picked, and then I make the dress, using machine embroidery, digitization, metallic threads, and a lot of hand sewing! Finally, Astraea will put on the dress and show us how it looks on!

Contest Rules: Must be over 14 years old, live in a country that allows mail. To enter, answer the question I ask in the video, and wait one week. On 4/6/2024, I'll pick three comments at random and respond with instructions on how to get your prize.
In this video, I talk about the plan of making this 1901-1903 dress, the ideas that Astraea and I had. I then go into the history of Charles Worth and his House of Worth. I do go into the history of dresses and how it really is the history of women's work that was then usurped by Worth, and how fashion has never recovered from this. After that, I look in detail inot the dresses that Astraea picked, and then I make the dress, using machine embroidery, digitization, metallic threads, and a lot of hand sewing! Finally, Astraea will put on the dress and show us how it looks on!

In today's video, I re-make the Rijksmuseum Reticule and talk about the history of pockets from the 17th century on. And yes, I am aware that they also had pockets and pocket bags in earlier centuries but I chose to focus on this century and later since this is where we have extant examples to study.
Thank you so much to everyone at the Rijksmuseum for letting me come and study the garments up close and for my friends for coming with me!

Also, I'm running a contest! Please comment on the video with your favorite era for costumes in history and I'll pick three winners on Nov 7th randomly to win a pocket kit (That I will mail to you)! Must be 13 or over to win, must have adult permission to get mail, must have a valid address to which I can mail the pocket.
In today's video, I re-make Felicity's original "Meet Felicity Dress"- because let's be real, Felicity Merriman had the best wardrobe of all the American Girl Dolls and that's why I'm a historical costumer today.

Personal note on the last shot: My little girl dog, Elspeth died on 2/23/2023. She was found under an abandoned house in Springfield, MO so it's not sure how old she was but she was between 11 and 13 years old. She hated being picked up and sitting on couches, so she really didn't appear in that many of my videos, but she was so incredibly loved and will be much missed. Thank you to American Eskimo Rescue of Saint Louis for rescuing her and her brother Gideon. If you're in the area, I absolutely love this organization: http://eskierescuestl.org and half the proceeds from this video will be going to them to help rescue other Elspeths.

I'm going to Fetes Galantes, the ball at Versailles, just outside Paris, France this May! In this vidoe, I'll discuss the ball itself - including what it is, where it is. I'll also discuss what costumes are worn there, and what eras are appropriate, along with a tiny bit of history of Versailles.
Then I'll get to how to get tickets - how to choose the tickets and activities, and tips for going.
Finally, I'll show off what I'm working on for this year's ball!

Felicity's Blue Dress - or Felicity Merriman's Christmas (or Surprise) Dress - is honestly THE costume that got me into historical costuming. In this video, I talk about Felicity, Pleasant Company AKA American Girl Dolls, the plot of Felicity's Surprise, and then of course, I MAKE the dress. I used silk taffeta, linen and a lot of historically accurate sewing (and some historically inaccurate sewing!) in order to make the gown a reality. In particular, I go into the construction of the dress, which I believe was originally an "English gown", also known as a robe a l'anglaise.

For years I've been making my husbands 18th century shirts with tiny handsewn details that I doubt anyone would notice. In this video, I discuss the history behind these shirts, as well as how to make them. I do highly recommend buying the pattern from At the Sign of the Golden Scissors so you have all the information at hand.

I wanted to make the Italian gown worn retrousse (or the robe a la polonaise as the Met calls it) from 1780, so I bought some reproduction fabric, and sewed it all up! I tried to use as historically accurate a sewing method as possible, though I did use a machine to stitch up any parts that wouldn't be visible from the outside.

In this video, I talk about female physician doctors, in particular Elizabeth Blackwell and Elizabeth Garrett Anderson. I also then plan, draw, and sew together a Victorian dress to wear on top of a bustle. In this video I will be making the waistcoat, the skirt and the overskirt.
I also go into the history of the caduceus and why it is often confused for the staff of Asclepius.

I have ALWAYS wanted to wear the Red Dress from Baz Luhrman's Moulin Rouge, so I was completely delighted to make this for myself. In this video, I study the skirt in detail, and talk about the historical 1890s skirt it is likely based on. I then make the skirt and the bow, sewing it with modified historical techniques like flat lining, and tarlatan stiffening. I then try on the whole outfit.

I have ALWAYS wanted to wear the Red Dress from Baz Luhrman's Moulin Rouge, so I was completely delighted to make this for myself. In this video, I discuss webpages and information out there about the dress, study the dress in detail, and then draft and sew the bodice. In it, I teach drafting on a dress form techniques, flat-lining, how to use grommets, how to add boning, make and use piping, and the joys of using coutil. By the end of the video, I have a well fitted and finished bodice.

Making the Anastasia evening gown has been a dream of mine since I was a child. I finally decided to tackle it for the our hospital's Doctors ball. In this video, I go into a deep dive into studying the movie version of the dress, as well as why I chose to replicate the way that I did. I use a vintage pattern from the 1950s (a reprint) to make this, as well as silk satin, and some glitter tulle. I explain flat lining, hand pricked zippers, boning and boning channels as well as the nuances of fitting a muslin. Thank you for watching!

Eee! I've wanted to make a "transitional waistcoat" or a waistcoat from the late 1780s to 1795 forever! Instead of trying to explain the history myself, I have Zack Pinsent (from @pinsenttailoring) here to explain the history and why it looks the way it does. I also discuss the change in embroidery designs and what it meant.
A giant thank you to Zack Pinsent for showing up on my channel! Check out his awesome channel @pinsenttailoring !

In this video, I used a vintage simplicity pattern from 1954 to make myself the sailor dress of my dreams. I had so much fun making this. I went over the instructions given in the vintage patterns, while making changes as I saw fit to suit my personal needs, and my personal sewing style. Including ignoring the machine zipper instructions to put in a zipper by hand instead.

In this video, I talk about the Dior Book Tote, and how I decided to create my own, this itme covered with raccoon embroidery. I digitize the raccoons on Palette 11 software, discussing the wizard, and then I show how I stitch it out using a Baby Lock Venture machine and silk threads. I discuss the different weight of threads. I then sew the whole bag together, discussing decisions I made and how I hid the seams using a faux satin stitch edge.

I am so in love with the Sleepy Hollow Dress I made last year, but I very much wanted to make a shorter, more casual version that I could wear every day, as an "every day cosplay". I realized my aesthetic is cottagecore, but also just, costume-core, where everything is a secret cosplay. So in honor of this, I wanted to make this 18th century zone front dress, but as a one piece, easy to wear dress.
In this video, I show myself drafting the pattern, sewing it up, including boning the insides, and putting the stripes just so as in the movie. I utilize sewing a full circle skirt as well as showing how to pleat a skirt and put in on in the 18th century method.

Please keep in mind that this video will contain discussion of racism, and racist triggers, sexism, and racism and where they intersect, and will also contain spoilers. Please also keep in mind that while we are discussing this, we are not calling for a boycott or saying anything bad about all of us that consume these movies. However, realizing where representation fails and can be downright racist is essential to doing better in the future.

I made a tiny Beetlejuice costume for my son - using fabric markers and a ruler. In this video, I go over the process of picking a pattern, making the suit, including how I did some minor classic tailoring to make the collar look better.

I've always really wanted a Robe a la Polonaise, and after seeing this portrait, I decided I needed one in hot pink. The dress is called a Robe a la Polonaise; and is popular circa 1780, from the Georgian Period in the 18th century. I use traditional, historically accurate sewing techniques including the English Stitch, as well as a combination of machien and fudging it.
The article this video mentions is:

From the first moment I walked into the Victoria and Albert Museum's 18th century room, I knew I needed ALL of the gowns on display. I think this will make the third and final one I need to make FROM that room! I use a pattern I drafted last year, some gorgeous silk, and a lot of hand and machine stitchery to make the floaty and floral gown of my dreams.

Ok. So I have a habit of dressing my husband up in all sorts of costumes, be in 18th century clothing or my favorite Sci Fi characters. This time, I decided to make him a Darkling kefta (aka coat). This includes drafting the pattern for him based on an existing, digitizing the embroidery, stitching out the designs over 70 hours, and sewing the whole thing together. In this video, we'll analyze Ben Barnes wearing the costume, and then make the gorgeous Shadow and Bone costume.

I have recently gotten completely obsessed with the new TV show, Shadow and Bone! I do want to cosplay Alina, but even more than that, I want to costume a healer Grisha- so I went and did it! Since Alina wears the healer coat in Episode 2, I utilized screenshots from that episode to make mine.

I've wanted to make an "every day cosplay" of Belle's village dress (from Beauty and the Beast 1991) forever - I just think it's such a beautiful and flattering look for anyone. In this video, I discuss the every day corset look, the inspiration behind this project, and then proceed to make the bodice and the skirt. I also do a quick get ready with me (GRWM).

In this video, I go into the making of the francaise from this famous drawing/painting of Madam de Pomadour (pastels and gouche) by Maurice-Quentin Delatour. It lives in the Lourve, in a very empty part of the building, but I had the joy of going and seeking it out a few years back. It was worth the wandering! In this video, I go into the procuring of the fabric, the features that make up my ideal robe a la francaise, and then I go into making it!

Here, I make a tiny corset for my 14" doll, complete with boning, binding, and tiny eyelets! I also talk about the history of fashion dolls, including the famous Lady and Lord Clapham who reside in the V and A. I then talk about modern fashion dolls - and ball jointed dolls - and how to size down a corset pattern for your doll, size it, and sew it. I also show how I made an 18th century pocket for my doll.

Hi everyone! I'm known for doing over the top, extravagant embroidery for my costumes. However, for the first year and a half, I did all of it on a one needle, starter home embroidery machine. I would like to give some tips, tricks, and explanations on how to get started in machine embroidery, from which machine to buy (and what features to look for in every budget), to what needle to use, and what stabilizer to buy. I used a Baby Lock Pathfinder to demonstrate this, as I no longer have my first machine and this is the currently available equivalent to that machine, in both price and function.
The machine I demonstrated with is a Baby Lock Pathfinder and you can see details about it at: babylock.com/machines/single-needle-embroidery/pathfinder
I am in fact a Baby Lock Ambassador and these are the machines I use:
