    I loved watching the process of all of them start to finish. My favorite is the dress, you can’t even tell it was modified 😱🤩

      ugh i love the dress, i still haven’t finished the lace part lmao

    The best part is just having extra fabric afterwards for a patch jacket. Like enjoy everything you make and then one big messy free for all project with the leftovers

    I love how the dress came out especially with the lace trim. It would be interesting to see what it would look like with lace trim on the sleeves. I also like the skirt.

    Yo and the skirt! I started adding lace to things after watching rattus rattus and now it's a necessary step on all my projects. I love that little plaid skirt!

    you can also use a bar of cheap soap to mark the lines that’s what i started to use and it doesn’t stain and it comes out when you wash it!

    ive been sewing for a good few years now and a rotary cutter for cutting fabric actually changed my life i stg. deffo recommend getting one. also all of your projects were so cute i CANTTT

    • @chizdoesthings
      @chizdoesthings  Рік тому

      omg i just bought $20 fabric scissors 😭 is a rotary cutter better for curved edges or just in general?

    • @mischa6461
      @mischa6461 Рік тому +1

      @@chizdoesthings fabric scissors are good for smaller precise cuts, but a rotary cutter slays so hard for long cuts, like when you cut down the denim for your jeans. its just a lot quicker for big pieces of fabric.

    Omg i loved everything you made! Also if you're still hating pinning (even though it is good habit!) they do have sewing craft clips which a lot of people prefer. Also if you want a prettier hem that doesn't fray, instead of the zigzag stitch, you can roll your fabric up about 3/8 inch once or twice and then sew a straight stitch on top and you have a clean rolled hem that wont fray! I know you're going for very grunge-esque fashion though :)) lovely job

      wow thank u so much! fraying is definitely an issue this is so helpful ((:

    The skirt turned out amazing! Makes me eager to try doing that again bc last time i did it i failed pretty bad lol

  • @mikkib7921

    These all turned out so good!! Especially considering they were your first ever projects, mine certainly didn't look that good when I first started lol. the dress especially is amazingggggg. Also I recommend backstitching at the beginning and end of every seam, it seems unnecessary but it will keep the thread from coming out and your clothes will last way longer:)

    • @chizdoesthings
      @chizdoesthings  Рік тому +2

      ooo thank you so much! and thank you for the tip, that would have been super helpful especially for the denim (,: 💗

    i really wanna start sewing but i cant figure out how to actually jump into it so maybe ill destroy a t-shirt or something. i wish i had your confidence bc all of your projects turned out amazing but if i did it then it would be funky.

    • @chizdoesthings
      @chizdoesthings  Рік тому

      aw thank you so much! tbh you really just have to jump into it. the first thing i did was try to sew random fabric scraps together and i couldn’t even figure it out (it was all bunched up and weird in the back). i watched a bunch of sewing videos specific to my machine too. just try it out bc you’ll never know until you try! and prepare to break a few needles (,:

    Recently found this channel and I feel so inspired by everything you create!
    Q:::: when did you start sewing?? I've never tried it out but I'm very interested in making my own clothes. It seems so much more sustainable and it seems so cool to create one of a kind totally unique pieces.

    Do you like that sewing machine? How was it on the denim?

    • @chizdoesthings
      @chizdoesthings  Рік тому

      i love this sewing machine, i think the most important thing is u have a strong enough needle for the material you’re working with.
