  • I finished my entire 1830's ensemble! This week's video is all about making the 1830's accessories needed to complete this outfit -- a chemisette, a pelerine capelet, and a giant bonnet. This video goes over all the patterning and assembly for all three pieces, and concludes with the final look!
    Have you missed the rest of this project? Check out the making of the dress here: • 1830's Pumpkin Dress

    The dress and accessories turned out lovely. My sister's cat Alexander had to watch with me. I think he really likes Dora. So does my cat Cosmo. She was awwdorable in her pumpkin dress as she was in the hat. I'm so glad you finally had the chance to make your matching dress to your doll's dress.

    I've never made an 1830s outfit for me, but I was inspired by you to make one for a doll! Not an AG doll since I don't have any x) I tried to think of ways to style her hair in one of those silly 1830s hairstyles, but I don't think I can do it without cutting some of her hair, so I think I'll just make her a ginormous bonnet too!
    I think the 1830s is one of those periods of time in fashion where you initially go "what the hell am I looking at?" and as time goes on you find yourself more and more attracted to it and you're like "it's so funky I need one for myself" haha

    I just purchased the Molly pattern (and the related patterns) from Pemberley Threads for my 18” dolls and got a whimsical Christmas fabric to make it up in. I think such an over the top dress will look amazing in an over the top fabric, but don’t plan to make myself the matching set 😂.

    Hi, Re: buckram. If you use hat buckram (I'm not familiar with curtain buckram so I leave that to others), that kind of interfacing comes in two different versions it seems, broadly speaking. It can have glue on one side or both sides. The glue side is usually a bit shiny. The glue is usually a PVA type glue, and to activate you need water and or steam. So hitting it with a lot of steam should do the trick. I too would have sewn it in, as the buckram I'm familiar with is the type you wet and then block on a hat block or a wig head (don't miss putting plastic wrap or cling film on your block or head or they'll get soaked).
    Shock! Horror!... hot glue on your hat😉😊. I'm a hat and millinery enthusiast, so of course you sew everything, so don't mind me. I'm glad to see the final product, and hat of course (the hat thing again). I won't be afraid to use satin if I want to after this video, not that I can find a reason to at the moment. Satin is usually susceptible to staining, so on a more use as sun protection modern hat I don't think it'll be practical. I might use it as decoration though, especially with domet or mulligan what ever that is (Google university comes up blank), some kind of smooth wading I'm guessing. Lovely project. The chemisette or dickie looks a bit usable even in modern terms. I'm going to have to put that on my lengthening to do list.
    The cat content is beautiful. However I tend to get a bit concerned when said cat lies down on a pin. I'm just going to assume that the cat and the pins aren't in the same place without supervision, and save myself a cardiac event. Yours, Ann

      Don't worry - Dora isn't allowed in the sewing room without supervision. And I do normally try to pull her away from laying down on scissors and pins, however much she may want to.

    Maybe I should make a pellerine to go with my dresses 👗& shirts👚. I love giving my clothes some variety. Thats what women in the lower classes did 🔙 in those days. I have seven dresses 👗hanging up in my closet. I should start making detachable collars 😊. I love 😍 the idea 💡 of detachable collars floating through my wardrobe 😊.

    So I don't know if you just do this for time or whatever, and I'm not criticizing but the way I've always done hats is to assemble the full cylinder of the crown first with just buckram (stitching it), cover that with mull using glue to help hide the seam overlap, and then stitch the fabric into a closed cylinder, attach that to the top of the hat inside out and then pull it down over the crown. That gets you a smooth finished surface though it's a little more difficult and time consuming.

    • @LadyRebeccaFashions
      @LadyRebeccaFashions  8 місяців тому
