    As someone with a very demanding job where stuff never goes according to plan (ah the joys of scientific research), I completely understand the appeal of kits and crafts that come with detailed instruction books. When your daily life is non-stop trouble shooting, debugging, and hitting walls, it can be extremely relaxing for something to just work as intended.

    Im really looking forward to the Tudor gown! That fabric is so gorgeous 😍. And the fully embroidered gown from the Chicago museum looks incredible too.
    And im excited to see how that little owl comes out - the other birds you made were so pretty.
    Don't forget to sleep though lol 😆

    Aren't you the Last Unicorn? You are a wife and mother with a challenging full time job, who crafts amazing and accurate historical garments, filming, editing, and posting videos on UA-cam, and typically has SIX projects going at once!!! You are a rare and mythical creature!

    I’m very excited for the Tudor and the Felicity gowns! I always wanted a matching dress for my American Girl dolls but was too big for the ones they sold. It never occurred to me to make my own!
    When I was in college, I would have no less than three projects going at the same time. A small one to keep in my backpack for between classes/my bus commute; a slightly larger one for work/doctor appointments/hospital stays; and a large or complicated one for home. It worked perfectly for me and A Lot of people got handmade gifts I otherwise wouldn’t have had time for with my crazy schedule.

    I also love having multiple projects at once, at least one knitting and one sewing, but usually more like two knitting and three sewing :D

    Actually the first 2 projects appealed to me the most. The kits would be perfect for me both because those birds are exquisite, but also because I like the idea of a kit eliminating my anxiety regarding overbuying (with the resulting storage issues) or underestimating a project's needs and it is 11 pm.. The Belladonna dress speaks to my love of having a graceful, unique and fantastical gown. All six projects look like something I will watch intently when they are shown on this channel.

      ​@@Sewstine​Very! The pattern states there is 9" of ease at the bust. I'm not expert enough to adjust that amount with all the bodice panels so I did what my Victorian ancestor might have done - I padded the underthings to fit the gown! 😂

Felicity''s apron dress sounds fun. 5he black and red ball gown for aLA sounds like a dream. Have the dogs sat on the trains, yet and have the acclimated to Chicago. Waiting for vlog on it.
