Sewing a Vintage Waistcoat and Trousers Pattern - Simplicity 3270 (Part I: Vest)
In this video, I take you through the things I did to make up this 1957 vintage sewing pattern. It was too small, so we see the modifications I made to size it up, my tips for the buttonholes on a looser weave fabric, and of course a reveal at the end. Though I forgot to film any of it, I promise I did a nice hand finish on the armhole facings. I hope you enjoy! I've been working on this and waiting to share since FEBRUARY!! Part two will be forthcoming as I am in the process of making the matching pants now.
This is a reupload with audio issues more or less fixed... probably.
If you are at all interested in seeing other things I make, I post very infrequently on Instagram about sewing and knitting (and ducks) at @maddieshort00.

Making the Onella Blouse - Mood Sewciety Free Pattern
Переглядів 2,7 тис.3 роки тому
In today's video I have made the Onella Blouse from Mood and detailed some of the things I did to make it fit beautifully! I made a few changes such as shortening the necktie (which given that I am using a stiffer fabric makes such a cute bow!), and I would like to share some resources below of other makers who have created this and shared their tips as well. I tried to explain parts of this co...
Mask Making - Witchy Couture (using only items in my stash)

On October 29, I decided to sew a shirt for Halloween from a self-drafted pattern. On October 30, I decided to make a matching mask. The mask took longer. It is, in fact, a fully functioning yet fashionable mask, and the trim is removable for washing purposes (take notes, asos)
Learning Melodeon Everyday: Week 2

Can you believe I committed to practicing a musical instrument of my own free will every day for fourteen days? I failed on day 15. I can't give up on this though. I have to win the game of most useless quarantine hobby because I'll probably make it both an icebreaker and my defining personality trait for a little while! Please enjoy this week's reasonably length vlog. :)
Learning Accordion (Melodeon): One Week, Every Day

One day I thought to myself, maybe during quarantine I will pick up a strange new hobby. Then another day I said out loud to my family "what if I learned accordion?" Many have said, Maddie, do you have an accordion? With which I counter "yeah, we have two." I chose to learn the smaller one, because I can hold it better. It is an Eb/Bb Club System Hohner Preciosa melodeon. Preciosas were produce...

    Nice work on the vest! Have you made progress on the pants? I have this same pattern and am making just the pants - I wanted to see how you interpreted the instructions for the yoke pocket - lmk, would like to hear what you have to say about it, thanks!

    Hi Maddie! I hope you continue to enjoy playing the melodeon. I'm a box player too, and have found it very rewarding and a lot of fun.

  • @5m34907
    @5m34907 4 роки тому

    Nice practice. Looks your melodeon needs a checkup. Keep up the good work! Look at ggms.nl. A Dutch site with a lot of sheet music especially for melodeon.

    Dude that’s you? That’s sick. It’s cool that we’ve both done this now, but McKernan really needs to find new music lol

      it sure is but yes I agree. I was a sophomore in the spring and I look back on it and cringe but he pulls it for worthy tenor players

    • @KJ_Wynn

      Maddie Short hey at least you had a decent brass section. Better than me sophomore year, I never woulda done that

  • @SuperHenshinBros
    @SuperHenshinBros 8 років тому

    Damn, you're pretty good. Although, one suggestion I do have is for you to work on tonging and just getting a good stream of air which is just good for overall tone quality. This is especially helpful when playing to accompaniment.

  • @multiplefandomlover7179
