- slaps roof You can fit so much tulle in this baby. Come watch me push my sewing machine to its limits with the BIGGEST project I've ever made. Or will ever make. Hope you're ready to see... so many ruffles.
For those who like puzzles: there are twelve clues to my NEXT project hidden in this video, some more obvious than others. Can you put them all together?

That was both amazing and so much fun to watch... it turned out beautifully fluffy and stunning
I started watching this and I was like “wow this production quality is great, I wonder how many subscribers they have” ONLY 956? hidden gem of a UA-cam channel! Subscribed!
Thanks! I hoped this would be an impressive project.😄
Now that's a red carpet kind of dress, makes you like a fantasy princess!
The shot of you sewing on the last layer of ruffle looked like you were creating magic from your sewing machine ❤❤❤
Aww! Thank you!
WOW WOW WOW. What a video production!!!!! I liked the dress and just the dress itself was beautiful. And the cat. You just made my day.
I am a sewer and cat lover.
Give that cat a raise and a extra treat.
This was absolutely the best thing i´ve ever seen! I can only dream of having those sewing skills!
Honestly? This required more muscle than skill! Lol. If you can sew in a circle, you can figure this one out. But I hope you have fun sewing adventures however you're comfortable (even if it's just watching. 😉 )
Such a pretty dress! You are beautiful Gwen! 💜
The amount of hardwork that is involved in making this dress is overwhelming hats off to you for having so much of patience, the dress came out wonderful and you look gorgeous
Wow wow wow, its beautiful. And purple 💜
Best tulle sewing tutorial I’ve seen! Double bonus for the adorable cats! I also have a white cat (Pierre) that loves hanging around me while I’m sewing!!! ❤
Wow, you are so talented!
Geeat job making such a cute dress! You made the strips from the dress fabric for your sleeves but then it looks like you ultimately used strips of ribbon.
Nope! Just used ribbon for my little re-enactment story of how I sewed them in. 😁
That's spectacular. Please post a short of yourself doing the shopping or working in the office or something in this. It's so fantastic it deserves to see the world.
Ha! I love that idea! Time to go grocery shopping in a ballgown!
Alright, time for another massive comment... Maybe not as massive as the dress, though.
1. At least we came close! Mystifying Tulle Dress (Kira and I's guess) is a very close guess (and in my opinion, that dress is mystifying, so...)
2. Y'ALL. Gwen shared a sneak peek to Kira and I almost TWO MONTHS AGO for cracking her code (mostly.) It has been so hard keeping this a secret, but now it's finally out, so no more secrets here! (The clip she used for our sneak peak is used at 7:38!)
3. The animal crossing version is ready to go! MO-SR30-LXPN-PRMW (Will post another comment so people don't have to read through the entire first comment)
4. That dress looks absolutely stunning. The tulle is a great touch to the already beautiful bodice of the dress.
5. Well, before this came up, we had a guess that has now been blown out of the water. Kira and I will be working hard on the next code.
6. (Edited afterthought) Is... Is there a reason we can't see the the title of that bigger book? In every shot the title is hidden. (Also, I like your "Easily distracted by cats and books" shirt)
I'd love to know what your first guess was...
Congrats to you and Kira and also to Sackratt for coming close to breaking the code! That’s cool y’all got a sneak peek!
If you do look closely, there are a couple shots of the spine of the book, so you *can* see the title, Gwen just never shows the cover… could it be because it’s a scandalous racy cover Miss Gwendolyn?!? 😂
@@monica_w_0814 lol. NOT a racy cover. Its honestly pretty plain, just like the spine with a slightly different layout. But I will 100% confirm that keeping that book face down was a conscious decision. I'll let you all consider why that might be... But you are dangerously close to one of the clues.
@@GwenPink If I am not mistaken the book title you're hiding is Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell by Susanna Clarke.
Love your humor, energy, video and YOUR DRESS! Amazing!
I love it. Your storytelling is so much fun, and watching this is giving me confidence to try and make my own tulle wedding dress, because I'm down for some chaos!
You are a mad woman and I say that in the best way
Love your energy! This is one AWESOME dress! Thanks for sharing :)
Just found your channel today, love it! Keep up the great work ❤️
That is gorgeous!
My Snowball looked just like your cat. I miss him so much. I almost teared up when I saw him grab at the fabric.
Sorry to hear your Snowball isn't around anymore. If he was anything like my Mr. Meowse, I know he was twenty kinds of amazing. Glad my video reminded you of him.
This is actually so impressive! Well done!
This is extra in all the best ways.
This is relaxing to watch and hopefully it will motivate me to try and sew something.
I hope so too! Best of luck!
That is the most GORGEOUS dress I have ever seen!
This is just… WOW, I love it !
This was so inspiring
Gwen you did such a good job on it! You looked so pretty in it! 💜
This dress is so freaking beautiful!
You have infinite patience! Turned out stunning! 👏👏
Wonder what AJ and Nates reactions were to 360 yards of Tulle suddenly being there😂
You literally looked like a princess in the finished dress Gwen. That’s looks so beautiful, love seeing your creativity and talent in all your projects❤️
AJ came downstairs and immediately started filming what was happening too. Lol. I should ask him if he still has the video he took.
It's so flouncy!!!💜
Looking to sew tulle, this popped up in my TL. Checklist: jellybelly fluffpoof white kitteh? Yes. Silly references? Yes. My favorite (and now discontinued, waaahhhh) Brother sewing machine? Yes. Coincidental card pull? 70808 was an old PIN from a defunct bank account. Yes. SUBSCRIBED!!!! Moar vids, pleez. And more fluffpoof moments. 😀
The dress looks so good, I love your videos Gwen!
Is skill extra GIRLLLLLYYYY!!!!
Me when I see Meowth in the background on top of the shelves: Come along Meowth, there are puzzles to be solved! And some Pokemon to capture,especially of the Pikachu kind.
SLAYED
Super impressive
I used to have a dress (when I was about 12) that looked like the version at 4:44. The skirt spun out so well, and I used to pretend I was wearing one of the dresses from West Side Story. This is so much more beautiful than anything I could ever do, and I couldn't imagine the amount of effort you put into it. Also that clip of AJ and the puppet was just so stinking adorable. You two are so cute. 😍
I love a skirt that spins well. 😊 I had one I loved to wear when I was somewhere around 12, too. Funny how those stick with you!
CHAOS!!!
When you said you were gonna make something bigger I don’t think I was expecting it to be that big!! But I better get theorising for the next project
I can't believe you managed to predict one of the Eras Tour Speak Now dresses ;) (all jokes aside, it looks awesome and I can only imagine how difficult it was to sew haha)
@@rachela7 The number of times I have thought exactly that... and been tempted to put it on and sing Long Live... it's not healthy.
360 yards of tulle, my tulle on discount was $2.97/yrd... 😱 Still worth it! Looks amazing
Omg this is beyond amazing 😍😍😍
How beautiful is this dress, you look the most beautiful
Loving it ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Absolutely magnificent and elegant, just like you, Gwendolyn!!! LOVE this!
Thanks, Mama Pink! I am absolutely in love with it. Pretty sure it's my favorite thing I've ever made!
Oh my gosh! This turned out beautiful! I love it so much! Can we talk about Tulle is such a fun word to say-
It *is* fun to say! I think a lot of fabric types are great words. 👍
Great work! You should make a shop one day and sell dresses and clothes that you make! This dress is perferct for weddings and parties and etc. And ik it might be a little hard since.. you make musicals and you make the costumes for them but still its a great work!
Magnificent 🤍💜💙🖤
Such a fun video! Just watched your other videos
You are so great ❤❤❤
I LOVE IT!!! I want to try 😊
Go for it! It was 100% worth every second of this project!
I came for the tulle, but stayed for the adventure!
Holy bonkers.. this really IS big..
Other than that though, I'm really happy that me and Cat got to ALMOST crack the code! We were literally messaging each other back and forth as to what it was, and I shall call this a win in our case!
For accessories, I would honestly see you wearing the dress with a purple flower crown, and even some simple silver clip-on earrings to match. But the one you wore really suits the dress too!
Now... how the heck am I supposed to draw this? Might as well unleash my inner gremlin for how insanely pretty this dress is 😉
You can do it! I believe in your gremlin abilities!
My gremlin abilities don't go on command sadly. I've been thinking of ideas before the video even came out, but I'm going to deliver something mystical, I'm not going to disappoint!
Dear god, that is a BIIIIIG dress Gwen, I bet that dress took you weeks to make.
Oh yeah. I started it all the way back in September!
Well BIGGER is BETTER
@@GwenPink September?! my goodness that was last year.
i freakon love this soooo much
9:10 what magic is this? how are you able to sew without removing the pins and without anything breaking?
also as late as this is. your cats are perfection! the dress is glorious!
Thank you! (sewing over the pins is really... a game of chicken. I've broken a few needles, but thankfully not on this project. I've sort of learned that if you have at least two of these three: *many layers of fabric, *low speed, *long stitch length... then you can get by without breaking anything. But it doesn't always work.)
@@GwenPink thank you! will keep this in mind.
THIS WAS AMAZING!!! you look so good init too!!
A new Gwen upload means it’s gonna be a good day and holy crap That dress is the epitome of “ITS SO FLUFFY IM GONNA DIE.” You have some serious crafty hands Gwen, amazing job! The black and white sequence was amazing btw😂 I know you didn’t intend for it to look this way but it looked like your darker half Pwen Gink or whatever we’d call her was like “You want to make that dress fluffier, GIVE IT MOAR” 😂 But seriously amazing job, can’t wait to see what you’re going to create next!
Pwen Gink sounds so close to penguin and so wrong at the same time! Can't tell if I love it or hate it. Lol.
But thank you! I had such fun putting together my little silent film. 😀
My gosh, this is so amazing! Amazing, awesome job Gwen! Embrace the chaos~
Hey I thought that "embrace the chaos" line was from the Moon Knight trailer a while back.
@@colestockstad3448 Was it? I actually haven’t seen it😂
Came for the dress stayed for the cat this youtubers are getting smarter 😂😂
When I saw Gwen’s Instagram post of how much purple there was for this, my first thought was “is she recreating the speak now dress?”(although I wasn’t sure how the code would have worked with that). My guesses for the next one are shimmering cardigan or shiny coat(or vice versa)
My Swiftie heart has two dresses that I would love to make. We'll see if I ever actually do it!
Oh my goodness that is gorgeous!!! I was… not close at all! 😂 Gwen, that looks fantastic! I love the reveal! 💚
Shell clamor… hmm, I’m thinking a cloak… Shimmery Cloak?
Sage Cloak? Or Star cloak? Those jump out at me for *no* particular reason… 😇😁
Aww, thank you! I'm so glad to finally be able to say it's finished!
Every guess you deliver makes me wish that HAD been what I was doing. Cloaks are some of my favorite things... but unfortunately, no.
I’ll definitely keep guessing… but Sage or Star is a major contender for the S… 😁
Sage Camisole? Star Chemise? I don’t know how you feel about corsets but… ummm one last guess for this would be sage corset?
❤❤❤
Hey, congrats on getting to 1k!
THANK YOU! ❤ It's been a very good week over here.
amazing project ! how did you manage the finishing around the zipper ?
Beautiful but bottom layer could be heavier and top should be from different fabrics overall beautiful
SUPER late comment but better late then never! I absolutely LOVE and adore this dress and now I know why it took like 5 months! When I finally ended up watching it I was a aww, when you did the reveal I was actually jumping up and down and smiling ear to ear! This is awesome Gwen and made my day! Keep it up : )
Thank you! I'm so glad you're here to be excited with me! (Also glad to be a good part of your day. Hope you keep finding great reasons to smile.)
@@GwenPink I’ve got a guess! For C could it possibly be costume. Yesterday I had rehearsal and I was like “costume starts with C mmm” but I’m stumped on what S is, gotta look into it more! 😁
i love it but i feel like the top would hav e looked nicer if it was a dark colour like the waist. but still amaazing!
Thank you! I think it would have been a different vibe with a darker bodice (more... dark ice queen, instead of cotton candy queen?), but I agree, that it would be very pretty!
*inhales* OKAY SO WE HAVE OUR FIRST GUESS READY FOR YA GWEN. (Kira and I always work together for our theories, so if either of us post theory comments, we're basically both behind those)
Sorcerer/Sorceress Cloak or Sire Cloak
Yes there is a method to our madness but it's hard to explain.
I think... you may have found one or two of the clues I meant you to find? But it's not a cloak. As much as I need something that dramatic in my life.
I became a beauty queen ♥♥♥🥺🥺🥺💖💖💖💖💖😍😍😍
12:27 she really like Greece and I'm happy about it because I'm from Greece 😆😆😆😆😆
The Chronicles of the Chaos Gremlin continues!
I need help figuring out how much tulle to buy. So if the waist is 30 inches around and you said 60 inches turned into 5 when it was gathered that means you would need 360 inches 10 yards for one ruffle tier? is that correct?
Because of the shape of the skirt, each tier took different amounts. My waist tier only took 1.5 yards, but my bottom tier used about 60 yards if I remember correctly. (That 60 inch measurement was the width, not the yardage, so I think that's where you're calculations went awry.) Altogether, I used 360 yards as it says in the title. :)
OH MY GOD!
Your So Adorable!
(P.S. Not In Love. Only The Dress Lol)
LOL. Thank you! Obviously, I had a blast making it!
@@GwenPink fun fact: i never got noticed by RE but you where the only member to ever reply to me. This made my day brighter.
Here have a cute frog 🐸
I think the wonky triangles are gores
In medieval speak
One of the clues says that S is a name and there were a bunch of GoT references throughout the episode. Could the next item have something to do with a GoT character like Sansa? As for the item, the book that has its name hidden is Strange and Mr. Norwell by Suzanne Clarke which takes place in the 1800s a time when corsets were very popular. So Shell Clamour could mean Sansa's Corset?
I believe I owe you two cookies and an ice cream bar. :) (your guess is SO close. Like, if this was darts, you'd be about two centimeters from the center. Maybe three.)
GAHHHH ITS BEAUTIFUL!!! And seeing how you put it all together was so amazing! ITS SPECTACULAR!!! Like.... can I invite you to my birthday masquerade ball and you can come wearing this dress?!?!?!?!? Ummm... semi serious here, would you have any interest in coming to a masquerade ball in Texas this April? Anyway! LOVE it!
I have never ever been to a masquerade ball, and I have always wanted to go to one. I actually considered whether I would be free in April... But I'm A) not sure how to take the time off work and B ) not sure how to pack this dress!! 🤣🤣🤣
@@GwenPink hahaha! It does look hard to pack... might need it's own special dress duffle. 🤣 Thanks for giving the invite a thought and I hope you have a spectacular April! Looking forward to more sewing videos!
Did you use a gathering foot for the tulle?
I didn't actually! I just turned my machine's tension as high as it would go on a very long stitch and it gathered beautifully. 😊
4:55 You know you've gone insane when you read all the symbols looking for clues lol
Insane? No. I now really wish I had hidden something there. But keep that energy. There is a clue hidden sort of like that in a different spot!
@@GwenPink Interesting
Amethyst geode?!
Love ittttt 😍🥹
This is what Isabela should’ve looked like in Encanto.
The top shouldve been smthng more glittery I guess, it looks like ur wearing a normal shirt with a tutu.
2:39 That is the Chaos Gremlin way and the more... "Fun" or interesting way
Amen!
5:50 in and i need to know if I'm right. "Favorite show that you haven't gotten tired of with 8 seasons" - psych??? Is it psych? Are we the same chaos person in different people who sews like this and has the same taste in tv???
Ooo! I wish I could say yes, but I actually never watched all the way through Psych. I meant to! Every episode I saw was awesome. :) (I was watching House.)
@@GwenPink hahahaha a close second😂 I loved this dress outcome. I failed a tulle monster dress myself because I didn't have the muscles to turn the project through the machine. It's entirely satisfying to watch someone else accomplish what I couldn't😌 wonderful job dear ⭐️
Is the “s” in the code summer?
*whispers* Not this time...
@@GwenPink oh ok not *this* time 🤭
4:56 i'm scratching my head is this the first time Gwen has planned a costume while recording? or am i missing something?
Probably... but technically that was a reenactment. Lol.
I have a guess!!! Could it possibly be….. Spring Costume? ;)
Well. Both no and yes. In that order. ;)
@@GwenPink Gosh darn it! I thought I had it at that one. Gotta keep thinking about it! Anymore hints up your mischievous sleeves? Lol.
@@GwenPink OKAY! I'm back! And had one heck of a time thinking about this. Would this project have ANYTHING to do with Game of Thrones? Cause you mention throughout the video about sorcerers, dragons. Butt ton of fantasy. Could you possibly be making a dress or something based off of a character in it?
@@Winky_CAT13 Absolutely. :D
@@GwenPink That's great! I'm excited! I've been thinking A LOT about this, I don't know anything about Game of Thrones but I did my share of research and asked a teacher at my school that I know likes Game of Thrones talked about it then went back to Google. I probably thought about this for like 10 minutes pulling everything I've gathered together.
Could the code possibly be-
Shae Costume? :D
Is that librarian I'm not sure I can approve of that off label use of books. But hey books are awesome aren't they?
I read them first, I promise! (And they work really really well for this...)
@GwenPink hey Gwen i wanted to say that watching you has been great and I've been singing your songs for years, I commented about this earlier and I was wondering if I could audition to sing with you guys. now you said to email you guys which is what i did but i got no answer so i went back and replied to your reply and still no answer, now i know you have a busy schedule but when you guys replied to me it was like i was dreaming but then I'm now getting no replies and it's starting to look like a dream so if you have time please say something, anything would be nice.
i don't want to be pushy but it is eating me up inside
watching this, you probably had no time to email me back
@GwenPink hope we can continue to talk in the future but if you are too busy that's understandable
When it comes to auditions, they don’t always email back. You can be almost guaranteed they saw your audition but if they don’t have a part in mind for you then they’ll probably save your email for when they do. If you’re not in the los Angeles area or under 18 then it makes it harder to get picked. Especially right now with the pandemic, they are even less likely to get someone outside of the three of them or people they know well. But don’t give up hope! It might take time, but it can happen!
Okay... After some intense thinking, I think I'm going to post a rough guess of what I've got: Shae Costume. Here me out! I know you don't specifically make costumes but, generally, an outfit can be considered a "costume" in some sense, and for an entire outfit, it made a bit more sense. Also, Shae wears pink. ...I think this made more sense in my head.
What a TERRIFIC video!
