This is by far the most perfect sewing video I've seen. I'm going to save it to my Sewing Challenge library and I will recreate it one day when I have the skill.
I love that you showed the paper draping and extending the bodice strap higher, it makes my visual-learner heart happy 😍
“A small stitch in between each gather.’ I watched that twice to get my brain to grasp that.
Same tho 😅
I saw another lady do it and my attention deficit will never piece together that statement it seems.
Hand up if you're procrastinating on your own sewing project to watch this instead
A well deserved break! My Christmas sewing is done! Hallelujah :)
I can't believe you made me remember that! 😂
hands up for me. It is so much easier to watch someone else sew :)
I'm procrastinating on everything, but I can't blame Marika.
Yup! And I'm NEVER going to be sewing a Regency - or any other type of - gown, since I mainly sew for myself. (I'm probably not confident enough in my fragile masculinity to pull off wearing a dress.)
Also, my current project scares me, so any excuse to procrastinate...
It's so PRETTY! Also the red leaves in the foreground of the photo shoot. Who says perfect shots don't exist
*Wild ABBY Appeared* "Do you battle or run?" I choose to sew.
You battle fabric with a running stitch
Marika, once again, your mastery of the skill of dress making shines forth. You have a true talent and it is a delight and privilege to watch you create such a wonderful gown. Brava! Brava!
Oh, and nice fielding frolicking. :)
Regency gowns look so simplistic, but they look really hard to make. All that precise gathering and making things fall the right way. And patterning things that later should be gathered!
*peaks at the Tamora Pierce books on the bookcase*(She's basically my favorite) Such teeny tiny cartridge pleats!
This is such a poetic dress. I love it.
I am just starting to make my own Regency set and I have really enjoyed watching you make yours. I am hoping that making mine will be a little easier because of you. Thank you.
What a lovely gown! I also love that various ribbons can be used to make a difference to the look - for me it brought such resonance to the novels where the characters are buying ribbons and lace and retrimming this or that garment 😊
The perfect pattern matching at 17.54 😍
This is lovely! I'm super interested to see how you handle bustling the train, though. One of my Regency reenactor friends said that they would draw up their trains by stuffing a bit of it into the back closure slit of the dress. All my Regency dresses I've made do have back closures, so that would work in my case. Only two of my dresses have a train. The first one, I used a wrist strap to handle the train but I think this is more of a modern convention. The second one, I used the concept of drawing it up into the back opening, since all my dresses close with just two ties at the back. I sewed a hook just hidden inside the back closure, and then stitched a loop down the back of the dress so that if I put the loop on the hook, the train would be drawn up to only floor length. That said, I have no idea how one would deal with a train on a dress without a back closure if one isn't using a wrist strap. I'll definitely look forward to more of your Regency videos!
Excuse me while I continue to fangirl over those TINY CARTRIDGE PLEATS! So beautiful! So perfect! And the red ribbon with the red leaves!
My jaw literally dropped when you started the English seam it totally blows my mind that it works like that!!!
Such a beautiful gown you have created. I love that you did the photoshoot with the amazing red of the Canadian maple leaves. ❤️
So beautiful! Definite ancient Greece vibes. 😍♥️
Beautiful dress, love the process and the merry skipping at the end. Just lovely!
I giggled in chorus. Oh and when you stitched the outer fabric to the shoulder straps towards the end was MUAH! 💋
Thank you for this wonderful video. I am planning a 1790s outfit, and already have the fabric, so will rewatch this when I come to make my mock-up. Your finished gown looks amazing, I love it.
I love that you did an autumn look. I would like to sew a 1790's regency gown for winter.
The dress is gorgeous and you look amazing in it! Especially the last shots with the billowing skirt, just *chefs kiss*
Love it! 😍 Can’t wait to see Part 2!
Absolutely LOVELY! I expect Darcy to come waltzing in through the mist any moment!
You look lovely in this dress. I love the techniques you show in your videos.
I have been wanting to try this round gown as well and I love to see your process!!
Oh what a beautiful dress. You look gorgeous in it! I am looking forward to the next part :)
That is a gorgeous dress, and perfect for you! I was admiring the necklace when it was on your dress form....absolutely perfect!
This dress is so lovely and you look fantastic in it. It is so flattering on you and you just look so comfortable and happy.
AHHHHHH! It turned out so well! Lovely!
Thank you so much for this video. Currently making my own 1790s dress and your detailed video is giving me everything I need to do it with confidence
It's so beautiful and looks so lovely on you - that train is absolutely spectacular and the fabric is gorgeous! I loved seeing you do the fitting/the way you walked us through it. (Doing the seams inside out is so clever! I definitely need to remember that.) And seeing you mark the back like that is just... I feel that in my soul. The eternal struggle.
This turned out so beautifully! You create amazing pieces.
This is perfect! I have a similiar fabric sifting with a laughing moon regency pattern sitting in my stash!
i love the result!
Truly majestic and beautiful! Wow, great job! It looks simple, but there's so much work going into this...
Thanks for the video!
Beautiful work, Marika. And you look gorgeous in it! Thank you for the video.
Yes!!! I am so that more costumers are creating 1790s outfits. The 1790s has so many beautiful gowns, and yours is no exception!!! Sending love from one fellow British Columbian costumer to another!
I love the end result, the pictures between the leaves look like a painting :) Also I love to see the sleeve set in process.
What a lovely dress! Also, those pictures with the matching red leaves are STUNNING
both you and the dress look completely stunning!! what an awesome project you put in so much work :D
It's so beautiful and you look amazing!
Loved watching you do your hand stitching.
Everything about this dress is beautiful!
This is so gorgeous! Even my 4 year adores it & will probably demand I make a kid size one.
Learned several new techniques here, will have to go back and watch again, thanks!
Well my cruddy week just got a whole lot sunnier! Thank you for your video!
Lovely! Can't wait to see part 2 :D
I love Regency Gowns.
How beautiful 🌹
I usually dont like regency but this looks really pretty on you!
That turned out sew super cute! I have that book and the regency dress simplicity pattern from American Dutchess. Now I want to make one. This video appeared in my feed just in time for me to finish with school today. Monday is so hard to get motivated to do school. Especially when the 7 yr old wants to sit there and give you the stink eye because he didn't want to stop what he was doing. Nice surprise for then end of a frustrating school day.
That train is everything! Very beautiful movement as well :D
Lovely workmanship and fitting, as usual! Can't wait for the next video! And thanks for the tips on making sleeves that you can move your arms in, I tend to join in Bernadette's existential screaming most times when I do sleeves...
I noticed something about this dress right at the end though, that reminded me of a problem I had with in my wedding dress, I had them put a liner into the upper arm sleeves because the fabric over my upper arms was unlined like the rest of the dress was, and the fabric was so sheer I looked like I had pink arms, which looked even weirder because the swoopy sleeve parts that started at the elbow were two layers thick so that looked ivory again. I'm really REALLY glad I had them do it because I got a horrendous bruise on my upper arm at my bachelorette party (poledancing lesson!) a week before the wedding and it would have shown right through! Is pink arms a problem, something you don't care about as much as I did, or is it going to be covered by other accoutrements in the next video? (sorry if I'm jumping ahead!)
Thanks!
Gorgeous!!
Thank you FlybyStardancer!!!!
Enjoy your videos very much! Your gown is stunning!
Ah, the English stitch(hem)❤️ one of my favorites❤️ (I’ve also used it to attach bias tape on a Victorian inspired cape😊)
Stunning work!
Beautiful dress, model and scenery!
SO SO SO pretty!
Yes, the wholesome sewing lady is here!
What a lovely dress!
so cute, I'm really looking forward to the future embellishments!
That dress is gorgeous 😍! The fabric seemed dreamy to work with. How much sewing would you say you do standing up? The no name stitch, very interesting. Ty for the close up.❤🇨🇦
Just beautiful. Thanks for sharing. Looking forward to part 2. Keep safe and well. ❤️Lynne
GLORIOUS TRAIN!!!
Beautiful!
Beautiful Dress! Well Done!
It's so pretty. Well done👏👏🥰
Cartridge pleats were done in Elizabethan era too.
You look so beautiful in that lovely dress!
What is this witchcraft--I was just making a Regency Pinterest board and contemplating making an early 1800s gown when I got this notification...
oh, marika! it's stunning!! how beautiful and becoming--you are so pretty, and it looks gorgeous on you!!!!!
Soooooooo beautiful!
This is stunning! And such a relaxing video ☺
Glad you enjoyed it!
My favorite snips!! Wish I could find another pair! They are great, but alas no longer in stock.
Oh man those cartridge pleats are fantastic!
so beautiful! love the train
Hi I love your videos!! That dress would be so much fun to wear. Could you tell me how you actually got a dressmaking model in your exact
measurements? Did you make it? Thanks Chris
Beautiful ❤️❤️
Vicariously sparking joy. If I were your daughter, I'd be asking for a Mommy and me dress.
beautiful
Very nice. I just wondered is the skirt tie hidden in the front gathers?
Wait, how do you finish/restart the English Seam when you run out of thread/reach the end of your piece? My brain can't quite wrap around the concept 😅
Back stitch a bit in the inside of the seam, there is a small lump where the edges are tucked, this is where you hide your ends.
I have spent weeeeeks trying to find that fabric 😭😭 I can't get it in the UK!
I love to watch you work. You have magic fingers!
You look like a magical creature!!! 🤩🤩
I love it! The fabric is perfect. Where ever did you find it? It looks so pretty on you.
Thank you Rebecca! I bought it in the LA fabric district when I was there for Costume College.
Where did you get your pattern weights?
Haha, that good ol' wedgie pose
😍Loved your Dutch woodenshoes/clogs comfy house slippers👌🏻😁. Greetings👋🏻 from The Netherlands 🇳🇱 to 🇨🇦.
When you lengthened the front armhole on the bodice you didnt legthen the front length of the armhole on the sleeve to fit, hence problems.
Capital, capital! Nicely done indeed! 😄❣️
Great video! Love this channel :)
The trains were pinned up with jewellery, right? Those brooch with a chain and clamp/peg dealies?
Ok, sorry if this is a dum-dum question, but how do you know how wide your cartridge pleats will become? Like how do you know the length you need to cut so you have enough / not too much for the pleats to fit to your bodice for example?
I've been wondering about 1790s trains too. Please share what you find with us!
Love your videos.
The dress turned out amazing!! Also, did you ever figure out how to loop it up?
Thank you! And that will be coming in part 2 😁
Your work is wonderful!!
Have you read any Georgette Heyer novels? She is amazing on historical (especially Regency). I'm sure you would LOVE them. Greetings from the UK. Xx
