I love it when real life interrupts a video. It makes the clip so genuine.
Sewing with gorgeous silk AND surprise chicken content? I’m not mad 😂
Love it when your fur babies make themselves known. As well as the neighbors hen. Mine are involved in every project.
I don’t know how you find the time to do all the things that you do and that you do so brilliantly. But I am ever so grateful that one of the things you do so brilliantly is to take us along for the ride. Thank you. My eyes light up every time I see you’ve posted a new video.
Last thing I expected from these videos was suddenly experiencing Missing My Chickens hours, but I'm here for it. Then again I'm always missing my chickens when I'm at work.
The chicken is totally the content I've subscribed for.
I love the bee-line from the construction process to a chicken.
I came for the sewing, I stayed for the chicken
This dress is coming out so beautifully, and can I just say, your Sudden Chicken Experience was masterfully edited and hilarious! There was something so perfectly comical about the cuts between the backyard shots and your reactions; definitely a highlight of the video :)
Top tier chicken content.
Haha! Thank you! I was pretty happy with the way I put those clips together! ☺️
Happiness trifecta Lion, Dora and a plaid skirt. Bonus chicken content ❤️
oh my gosh. the chicken content was SUCH a bonus.
So....the 20 leftover yards of purple trim - - You could cover a whole jacket in the trim, like fringe layers and it would end with a puffie, 1970's fringe purple jacket! lol
As a chicken mom I absolutely approve of surprise chicken content and welcome it 😊
The chicken pause was hilarious and full of real life drama
Love the dress. Some chicken advice should one get into the yard again. If you can wait until evening, chickens will settle down. You can easily & gently pick them up. They don't move. Anxious to see the finished dress!
I love, “Do you need assistance?” Clearly you have not had chickens, but I love how much you care!
You were so polite when asking the chicken if it needed assistance! I laughed out loud! Priceless!
Love the riveting chicken content….I am crying with laughter! So glad she made it home safe and sound. Not to mention that the dress is amazing!
Just did the record, I am 100% here for unexpected chicken content. 12/10 would recommend. 🤣🐔
The chicken in your backyard was a nice bonus. I enjoy seeing animals in your videos, even though they're not centered on them.
That’s a fine looking chicken. Chickens can fly, and they’re not scared of cats. The broom was hilarious!
Oh my. I was not prepared for the riveting content provided by your neighbor's hen. Of your many talents, I am most amazed that you speak fluent chicken. 🤣🤣
The chicken bomb was priceless! That dress is going to look gorgeous.
Chickens can fly. Two of our chickens would fly over our fence to the front yard until we clipped their flight feathers, which doesn't hurt them when done right.
I wonder if this one was already clipped. When she tried to scoot away from me when I had the broom, she only got maybe 4ft off the ground.
I love watching your process, but the chicken content was the highlight of this video 😂
The chicken 🐔 content was perfect 👌. Am I the only one who had the Kokoriko village (??) soundtrack from Ocarina of time playing in the back of my mind during that sequence?
Oh my god the chicken content is so relatable. I love this project. Lion was such a good helper in this video. Even as a fabric weight lol.
Haha! Do you frequently have random chickens in your yard? 😉
Omg the chicken! Lol ! The dress is looking amazing!
Wow, you really lucked out with the purple band. And it looks so good on the skirt. Finding the exact right color purple to match another purple is so hard. One day when I was in study hall in 9th grade I saw another girl was wearing a a whole outfit in purple: skirt, blouse, and vest (because long vests were really popular in 1970) and she was also carrying a purple purse. Only problem was they were four different shades of purple. As you may already know purples either lean more to the blue side or to the red side, and this girl's outfit was both sides of that color line. One piece had a lot of red, another a lot of blue, etc. The image of that horrendous outfit is seared into my brain so I'm really careful about matching the color. I didn't say anything to her because she was several rows away from me and I didn't know her personally. But I have a feeling some of her girlfriends did because I don't remember ever seeing her wear those particular garments together again. To this day it makes me shudder.
😂I didn’t come here for the chicken content, but I am delighted that you kept it in!
I don't know why I continue to be amazed at the the details you must think thru & decide! A wonder. You not knowing why you bought the fringe & finding the matching satin away from its regular area, to me are God giggles. What a find. And chickens can fly short distances, so could have flown over so we all can see & get a giggle too. Prayers still in job hunting! 🤗💕
Yay Lyon the children herder
Gorgeous gown, now with bonus chicken content!!!
I love how this is coming together! It so pretty! I didn't think a 1850s dress would be anywhere in my future but now I am thinking it must 🤔
You should make a silk dress for the chicken. LOL
I’ve had so many interruptions during this video that it took me 6 hours to watch! I like your interruptions better.
The purple fabric with the fringe is lovely on the skirt. Great stash find! Combined with the silk it’s stunning. Love how everything is turning out.
There's a chicken in my yard... It's still there... cue distraction! So much fun, and thank you for the sewing too.
Behold, gentle folks - Lion has shepherd dog qualities
🦁 = 🐑🐶!
So cute!
The dress project is looking great! The urban chicken was hysterical!! That will become more and more common, get ready for it.
This dress is so beautiful! The dark trim adds drama 🤩 and I can’t wait to see the next steps!
Your videos brighten my days. I just loved the chicken rescue.
If you have another chicken situation, chicken burrow down when they think they are in danger, they just hunker down (just pretend to come from above and they think you are a predator). Once they sit, pick them up with both hands (wings to their bodies) and lift them over the fence :)
I think that's basically what it did once Lion had it cornered. I guess it just wasn't afraid enough of me or my neighbor!
The stitch you used on the seam of the ribbon is typically called a ladder stitch :) Also yay for chicken break.
My neighbor has chickens, I can only assume at some point I will also have a mystery chicken in my yard 😂
You started this project at the perfect time to get me excited for my new project. I had planned 1850s next and was soooo super excited when you said you were too! But I have to start from the bottom lol don't even have an era appropriate corset yet
I am loving this project, and the chicken interlude, and I love love love the cat shirt 15:00 minutes in!
Thank you! It's a new eShakti dress - highly recommend! www.eshakti.com/productdetail.aspx?productid=CL0070380&Neckline=As%20Shown&Sleeve%20Type=As%20Shown&Length=Mid-calf%20length
I am in love with the box pleats on this skirt. It makes my head spin with ideas to try on my plaids. Beautiful outfit. Can't wait for sleeves.
It's always the chickens.
OMG loved the chicken cameo. (I find them easier to catch if I toss a large heavyweight towel or something over them. ;-) But Lion seems to have a secret herding talent so all good!)
OMG the chicken! LMAO That gave me the laugh I so desperately needed! The dress is turning out great.
With bonus chicken content! Very fun. Plus your dress is going g to be beautiful. I love plaid.
Chick chick chicken hehehe the look on your face when you noticed it was gold! I'm really loving this dress, that dark purple just makes the dress! And I can't wait to see that gunnysacks dress, they are soo much fun! ❤
Omg from your expression during that pause at 17:44 I thought you were about to share a sudden sewing-related realization and then you come out with 'sorry... there's a chicken in my yard...' 🤣🐔 what a plot twist
Dress is looking so gorgeous as well I love the fuzzy trim!
Wow, I really love the purple fringe & purple matte satin for the band! That shade is purple is my favorite. The added bonus of chicken content was entertaining.
Really enjoyed this! Yes, I’m excited for the next instalment of this project. Loved the chicken 🐓 interlude! So proud of Dora and Lion for protecting you from the chicken. And you know, a silk project is not complete without the pet scan of approval 🥰 Sending best wishes from Down Under💕💖🌸🌺💐🇦🇺😎
Love the chicken!
It's so beautiful 🤩 I can hardly wait for the sleeves.
About the chicken... You trying to talk it over to the other side of the fence translated in my mind to "jump in my mouth if you want to live" 😂🤣
Hahahah!!! 😂 And thank you!
Your dress is looking beautiful! Also, chicken content is GOOD content, lol!
that is a beautiful buff orpington
New content, chicken chasing! Slap me silly that dress is gorgeous; the fringed trim looks perfect against the plaid. You're finishing so quickly, Rebecca, you might need to add more dresses to your to-do list.
xoxo's Sandie🤗
this Is the ultimate MN Vikings fan dress
Looks great! You work so fast. Thanks for the piping review. Helpful.
Your orange dress looks lovely.
This is 100% the content I subscribed for and I'm loving it
Came here for the gorgeous dress but the bonus animal content was definitely a plus. Your furry friends are super cute and I just love the confused chicken lol. If one ever gets over the fence again, if you can wait until after dark to catch her it'll be super easy. We kept chickens when I was growing up and the hens are basically comatose when they're roosting. Just approach her slowly and pick her up (by her body not her neck) in one fast motion and then carry her tucked against you like she's a football you're trying to defend. :)
I am so in awe! The costume is so beautiful! I find the colours and the style so gorgeously perfect an you!!! ( and what a beautiful corset…)Every time I watch your videos I feel so inspired..! I started sewing on an old Pfaff machine with foot pedal for power 😁and I so love it… redid my sofa and a chair and had so much fun.🤗
What an amazing find to be able to get fabric to match that trim so perfectly. It really does look amazing and help bring out the purple of the silk.
Loved the chicken content. Having grown up on a farm I've chased my fair share of chickens, as well as asorted other livestock both ours and neighbours, so it really brought back some funny memories for me.
It looks much nicer on the video than it did on the picture. Looking forward to seeing when you complete it.
Hi, dar885 here. I will be excited to see the end of this dress. Keep sewing!!!!
I love the purple variety in this. the yellow tone would just make me look ill. you're so lucky to be able to wear so many colours without them washing you out. can't wait for next week! do you mean a ladder stitch? it didn't sound like a whipped butted seam.
Yeah, I think it's a ladder stitch. This one will be back in two weeks - it's a fall Gunnesax dress next week. ☺️
@@LadyRebeccaFashions I know. I absolutely love the gunnesax creations for autumn/Halloween. I'm so excited to know what you're doing this year.
So cute! everything ! LOL chicken and all
🇨🇦😃 oh real life is my favourite… awesome chicken content 😝
Lion and chicken and cat oh, my. You are a braver than me. I'm scared to death of chickens.
I love your cat top/dress, too!
Hahahaha “I don’t have chickens” but maybe you temporarily have ONE.
It’s looking GREAT! ❤❤❤
Thank you! It's a new eShakti dress, and I'm loving it! www.eshakti.com/productdetail.aspx?productid=CL0070380&Neckline=As%20Shown&Sleeve%20Type=As%20Shown&Length=Mid-calf%20length
Oh those pleats are amazing!!
Surprise chicken content a la Micarah Tewers was hilarious 😆🐔🐓
I LOVE your cat shirt🥰
The skirt looks so perfect 👍🏻
Thank you! It's an eshakti dress! www.eshakti.com/shop/Dresses/Bow-tie-cat-print-crepe-dress-CL0070380
I adore that fabric! It’s looking very lovely.
I love what you did with the purple band! It looks gorgeous, and the fringed trim adds really nice texture
Oh, you found the perfect fabric for trimming! I was totally sold on the purple velvet, but what you found is sooooooo much better. And with the trim, it's fabulous. Anticipating the finished ensemble VERY much.
However, I also love a Gunne Sax dress! Best of both. 😊🥰😏
The box pleats are perfect for the plaid fabric! Looks amazing so far!
It is SO beautiful... I'm not usually that into the mid 18 hundreds as the skirts are so big all around, but this one is an exception!
You're in Washington, too? Hi neighbor! *Waves from Olympia*
Fall - yes, please!
Beautiful job on the pleats. And I love your trim.
I love your videos. Rebecca, you are shoo talented and a complete inspiration to costumers like me!
Its beautiful!!!
LOL - that's a pet chicken and decently socialized if she let you get that close (and the cat/dog). Most of them are okay with being picked up and I would have just tossed her back over the fence if she refused to go on her own.
Hilarious chicken content!
How beautiful is this dress?! Love how it's turning out.
Ooh, its coming along SO nicely! 💝
love the chicken bit!!!
What a sweet chicken friend! Please share all your surprise chicken videos so I can live vicariously 😍
Also, please always let us see your sweet fur babies doing what they do. 🤣
I have never been able to do any sort of crafting without my pets' interference. I can't even imagine trying to film said crafting with my pets around, especially knowing how excited my older (and very large) cat gets when I'm in a zoom meeting.
Lol, I'm reading this right after Dora completely interrupted a bow tutorial in the video for two weeks from now. So you'll be seeing more animals soon! 😉
@@LadyRebeccaFashions I can't wait! 🤣
I got so excited about all the things that I forgot to compliment the dress. It's stunning! Now I'm thinking I might need to give plaid a chance.
@@AllTheHappySquirrels thank you! And I'm always a fan of plaid. 😉
Loved the chicken content!! Lol!!!
love the chicken content!!! also the hand stitching you did with the purple band is a ladder stitch.
So. Much. Fabric. for ye olden skirts.
Chicken wrangling: Calm and steady. They're a domestic animal. Come in low and scoop her up like you would Dora. Walking on eggshells type slow will upset the chicken that there's something going on, and moving too fast will get you a flappy, upset chicken.
Ask neighbors if you can hold one of their chickens :)
Good to know!
Chicken!! 😂😂
…and really entertaining chicken content 😂
fall has struck in s e oklahoma
Jealous! It's still not here yet.
don't know if you saw it or not but there is a gap right at your bust, looks like about 1/2 inch....are you putting an extra hook there to pull it together? that dress is going to be so beautiful love the color and plaid on you....makes your waist look tiny...no wonder that style lasted as long as it did! LOL
It was just pinned closed in this video, but there's hooks and eyes on it now!
Love the band much better than velvet. You lucked out on color!
