Pockets “for maximum snack storage”. 😀 “Cursed concoction of ammonia and regret.” Your word choice is, as always, impeccable in its ability to produce a laugh. Closing shot against those beautiful gates, chef’s kiss!
Can we all just take a moment to stop at appreciate what a good cinematographer Bernadette is? She’s so talented with all of the sewing stuff, but I think we forget that these videos are put together so beautifully, and that’s a whole separate skill that she also has. It’s amazing.
I can't even believe that the ridiculously amazing quality of these videos are just... Available for free online now. It's here bc of the patreon and such, but i feel like this kinda thing would've *required* direct payment in the past to be able to cover the costs
Pockets are a much-needed addition to modern clothes. My 2-year-old has already realised the travesty that is poor pocket storage and is not shy in telling me when I mess up and provide pocketless clothes for her! (Where is she expected to keep her cuddly toy bunny and her "phone" aka dead online banking card reader?) I think I'll make her an apron with big pockets as a Christmas gift, so she always has bunny/phone/snack storage no matter the outfit she wears.
There were these roomy "vests" (for lack of a better term!) that women used to wear over their good clothes - they had big patch pockets, too. Think some may have called them 'housecoats' ?! Something like that might be good for her ?!
@@m.maclellan7147 that is worth looking at because they sound like they will be easy for her to put on herself. I think we call them tabards over here.
Not that it was ever bad, but the *sound* of your videos and the way you use it to create an atmosphere (The raindrops! The crinkly paper!) these days is sublime.
Not to mention impeccable music choices. The “unspecified school of magic music” is just divine and now i wanna know what its is also the last shots showing her put it on and walk around in it is also just divine
@@bernadettebanner Your sound has never been bad as I see it. Bad is when you can not understand what is said or going on. Bad is when there is annoying sound like constant scratching on the mic that are louder then the voice. Even if your sound have not always been perfect, it has never been bad.
You truly have a very good "hand" when it comes to handwork. My mother trained as a seamstress for a time in the "old country". She taught me a lot! She had a beautiful "hand", too; but I was always anxious to hem a skirt I made. The hand stitches started neat, and with precision. By the time I finished, the stitches became basting stitches! She made me take them ALL out!! In Greek she said . . . "what are you going to do; hang ladles on it?" Thanks, Bernadette! 😊😊
I need to take frequent breaks, to stay neat and accurate with my handsewing as well. Even though I do enjoy it and want to do it right. It's a simple task, but it does require a lot of focus - unless you do it often enough, for it to truly become 'muscle memory'. But who has time, to do so much sewing, right?
The caption “music to lightly bop to” is quite possibly the funniest and most accurate of the nonverbal captions I’ve seen on this channel. Also, my embroidery thanks you, as it seems to get the most uninterrupted and detailed attention when one of your informative and entertaining films are playing within earshot. Enjoy your beautiful new skirt!
I make my skirts with Bertha Banner's pocket pattern too and today I got absolutely convinced that modern pockets are disgrace, especially in jeans. I wore them for the first time in a long, long time and was incredibly disappointed. But I'm glad that we can make our clothes with sensible pockets. Not this modern nonsense. Thank you for coming to my rant. Skirt is absolutely glorious and definitely dramatical. I think I need another walking skirt..
the seamstress i used to go to enlarge my absolutely offensive pockets would always laugh at my rants about how society is doing us just great unjustice
Right? I think that I would just simply cut the bottom of those idiotic pockets and sew in bit of fabric to make them larger. Piecing is period, isn't it?
Bernadette’s Victorian dress and all around assured historical air is so entrancing, I find myself convinced the environment around her must also be period. The umbrella? Period. The sign describing the history of those ruins? Totally accurate.
Also going to add, being back in London has made the Bernadette Banner Cinematic Universe somehow even more soul-stirring than it already was. These videos give me the same feeling of adventure that a good book does, and that is rare let me tell you.
**unspecified school of magic music** friends, if you have not yet discovered the wonder that is the captions on bernadette’s videos, what are you even doing with your life? i know she doesn’t do them herself but they certainly fit her brand very well
God can I relate to this on a spiritual level. Except my mending pile also grows as I have the unfortunate tendency to go inline skating in some of my favorite clothes only to come back home with rips in them.
Every time I see you hand stiching, I'm reminded of what my mum told me when she was teaching me how to sew: "do not be afraid to hand stich or finish a garment by hand, this is how clothes used to be made before sewing machines were invented". Love it
As a connoisseur of fine captions I must thank you for your additions to my favorites list: “Music to lightly bop to,” and “Unspecified School of Magic Music.” Both gave me a hearty chuckle and left a smile upon my face.
I love the juxtaposition of old and new in this video: sewing with a treadle machine and pressing with a very modern ironing system, lighting a candle with an arc lighter before sitting down to sew by hand.
Man. The cinematography. The music. The lighting. Bernadette, you've truly captured the elegance of a Victorian Millennial and the mixed melancholy and comfort of a rainy day in such a fantastic way here. This may be one of my favorite videos of yours to date. A true joy to watch 💙
I'm sorry but I was incredibly distracted by the nail polish color in this video: it suits you very well!!! The skirt looks gorgeous and durable, I shall look into this worsted wool fabric in the future (I wonder if it could be used for a 1890s frock coat, or if the texture is too rough). It was sometimes hard to tell how the stitches looked because of the white balance in the shots where it was mostly the fabric on screen, but it might also be my computer (and I'm sure black fabric and diaphanous white light don't like to work together). Nonetheless, this was a lovely and informative video and inspires me to find some free time to sew again.
The only thing I noticed about the dark nail color was that against black fabric it was difficult to see your fingertips holding a needle - if that makes sense. I enjoy watching your exquisite hand sewing and it was rather difficult to see your technique in detail at times.
I’m distracted by those beautiful nails, they’re such a romantic color. I thought it was a deep black but when I saw them in the light they’re really a deep wine color? Stunning
Hey, I just wanted to say thank you by sharing something personal. I'm not the kind of person whose into sewing or quilting, but my mom was. She made blankets years ago for kids who had none (part of a non-profit thing), and when she'd make those blankets, I'd curl up on the couch or somewhere nearby, drink some tea, and relax. That was when I was little, and without going into detail, something bad happened, and she and I don't talk to each other anymore. Your content is warm. It is deliberate, diligent, and fascinating. I can sit with a cup of coffee or tea, snuggle with my cat, and watch/listen to it in the background and it's genuinely wonderful. Even a couple times, I feel like I can relax like I did years ago. It's funny how someone else's hobby has a crazy way of making you feel like you're at home. Weird, I know. I still hope this made you smile, that your day is amazing, and whatever you're doing, I want you knowing that the world is better for it. Thank you for everything you do.
@@tammerins.3313 and just what the Dr ordered hahaa x ps thanks for sharing Your memory and Your vulnerability x I have buried a lot of my memories because of trauma ..including the good ones ...so I too find Bernadette is helping to shift my brain pathways for the better x
Anyone else ever watched one of these, recognize another garment made in an older video, go check when the video was made, and feel weird that you remember what Bernadette was wearing like a year ago? That cape is still fabulous.
The sheer ammount of gothic, halloween vibes makes this little nerd so so happy! Just adding running through a tree lined street on a cloudy day with a dramatic skirt to my bucket list ❤️
That was so dramatic and I am absolutely here for it. Also the shot of you sitting on the couch hand sewing looking perfectly late 19th century but with airpods in is just *chef's kiss* perfect. I love that hahah.
That music! So hauntingly beautiful, with those witchy vibes. You’ve outdone yourself with that intro. I love how the train takes the skirt up to a whole other level, it looks so elegant, and the silhouette is just perfect. *chef’s kiss*
Huh. I thought “home clothes”and “other than home clothes” was about preserving my other than home clothes from being coated in cat hair, and avoiding delicate materials which won’t withstand claws.
Having a cat myself (Houdini) I can surely relate to that. You made me think of old fashioned garment bags! I don't think it wouldn't take too much time to draft a pattern and find some good material to make it from. I wonder if Victorians and Edwardians had garment bags?
We have an American Bulldog, can confirm. Anything worn around the house gets covered in ‘glitter’ aka tiny stabby white hairs that resist all dog-hair-removal tools. Everyone has ‘house’ clothes and ‘dog walking’ clothes and ‘normal’ clothes. 🤣
@@TrappedinSLC try masking tape. Always use the "name brand" - I like 'Scotch' brand - it does make a difference in masking tape. I use it similar to how one uses a lint roller and it is MUCH cheaper and lasts longer! If you want WIDE tape, check your hardware store in the paint section. Normally comes in 1/2, 1 and 2 inch sizes at my big box store.
@@m.maclellan7147 I’ll try that. His hairs are very short and coarse so they just stab into things. Like I’ve actually gotten a ‘splinter’ from a stray hair. Felt like I’d stepped on a needle.
People are always surprised when I show them how big my Victorian pockets are in my more recent projects. I refuse to make another wardrobe project without pockets ever again thanks to learning better from you!
I am sure that at least 75% of the Victorian ghost sittings in lovely England are simply people catching a glimpse of Bernadette modeling her lovely new garments. Keep up the spooky work!
Brazilian foggy days are for watching Bernadette tailoring videos while thinking about how every single shot makes for a amazing oil pastel illustration
Ah, yes, the practicality of having clothes for going out and clothes for staying in. I, too, have discovered the benefits of wearing house dresses that only cross the threshold to feed the outdoor cats and changing into proper going out clothes to run errands and do business. Both my cats and my children know that when I wear certain things, I'm either on my way out or I just got home. Always love a good shirt making video!
I truly enjoyed this video. I particularly enjoyed -- I am NOT weird -- the sounds of the tailoring activities: cutting, marking, snipping, stitching, swishing, what have you. The soundtrack music, which was, as always, a perfect accompaniment to the visual experience and narration, did not obscure the delightful sounds of the intricate work being accomplished. Somehow this added auditory dimension just struck me, today, as being especially satisfying. The single most accurate descriptive word for Bernadettian content is "intimate," i.e., the immersive experience of Mistress B. performing her gentle and graceful art for our enjoyment and edification, and I think these little, barely noticeable sounds kind of make it feel like you're watching over our good-lady's shoulder, rather than just viewing a UA-cam video. Well done, Miss Banner, well done!
I grew up with a mother, who sewed a lot and the sound of fabric scissors and sewing machines is the auditory equivalent to cookie smell for me. Just makes me feel happy and content.
The final shot against the ornate gates was superb! Remembering back to when you first learned about the pocket hanging tapes (and why they are necessary). Your channel definitely shows by example the benefit of practical costume history--showing the why behind certain practices (also, e.g. hem tape or brush tape).
@@stargirl7646 It first came up here ua-cam.com/video/za40PYeJU6c/v-deo.html but then she neglected to put actually insert the tape in the skirt, and then commented on realizing the necessity of it (i.e. without it, heavy items in pocket pull on the side seam as opposed to the waistband). I haven't seen if she mentioned the pocket hanging tape in a video between these two . . .
Re: the faded cotton twill skirt, when I lived in England there was a product sold in the laundry section of some supermarkets that was essentially black dye suitable for cottons designed to be used in a front loading washing machine to refresh faded black clothing. I only used it a couple of times but it did work quite well, though of course anything not-cotton may not take the dye or might take it oddly, like buttons or zippers or similar. So either remove anything you don’t want to end up being dyed in advance, or accept some adventure. (Though of course something like a black button isn’t going to show much color change anyway since it’s black.) I believe they had a navy blue option also, but I can’t remember for sure. At any rate it might be worth looking into? It’s by weight so I’d guess you could probably do the skirt and maybe one or two tops or the equivalent.
People overdye faded black regularly. What you describe sounds like Rit dye. Which is in grocery stores here, and fades. You want to use procion dye, in a bucket.
I’ve been over dying my black clothes for years, washing, drying, ironing and typical wear and tear takes a toll on all fabric. My older clothes of Quality fabric are much better than what’s on the market today!
When I was in college a hundred years ago, all my friends were urban hipsters (a category of person I had never met before and was entranced by) and wore nothing but black. Every few months a bunch of these girls would get together with several boxes of Rit to overdye their black clothes and bring them back to life. It worked really well. Everybody stayed super-hip for longer! (Later in life, at a Catholic university, I met a European philosophy professor who wore elegant, all-black suits every day....somewhat spoiled by the fact that, quite regularly, he would be walking to class and kids he'd never seen before would respectfully greet him, saying "Hi Father"!).
@@teagan_p_999 There’s a few for synthetics and at least one for a blend of both. The nice thing about the packs I mentioned is just that everything is in the package, you don’t need to add salt or measure anything or any of that like you often do. It’s more convenient. 😄
A word of thanks to you. I have slowed down and stopped cutting corners in my historical creations. Now, I embrace the process of all the hand sewing, marking, basting, etc. Satisfaction factor has jumped.
I came to learn sewing and stayed for the the ASMR like qualities that is your voice and music choices, set with the soft thunking of your sewing machine.
You look positively witchy :) if I didn’t know you edited the sewing part of the video in quite a hurry I wouldn’t be able to tell to be honest. Great work.
Oh, watching you work and narrate it all is so relaxing! Plus, the sound of your sewing machine in action is so nostalgic. A gorgeous skirt for going about, too. And glorious pockets for snackage.
me, reading the title, in the tone you would use with a 5 year old who took the last cookie from the jar: Bernadette, did you sew another skirt...? 😂 lovely video as always, madam! 🥰 oh, and your nails are adorable! very October 🎃🖤
Your videos always makes me feel so safe and out of the world. Between the music, the colors, the light and the slow hand stiches... it makes me want to start 3000 new projects while being cosy next to a fire with a tea and cookies. Thank you for your work!
All of these fabulous additions to your wardrobe, I think we definitely need an updated wardrobe tour! I'd love to see which one of the more historical construction, or costume type pieces, you've kept for everyday use, along with the old wardrobe staples that are still hopefully trucking along! 😊 (Also, that Edwardian wrap cape is giving me EVERYTHING right now 😍) This is style of walking skirt is definitely on my next project list. Beautiful job as always with both the sewing and video! ❤
This came at a very opportune time, as I needed a break from hunching over a desk for hours. Wonderfully aesthetic video as always. I love the addition of new music. The wrap cape and skirt combo seems like a good substitute for that ultimate witchy vibe, until you inevitably make your own McGonnagall robe to twirl in and scold errant wizards
I love the way this particular pattern and material hang. It has a heaviness about it that is very elegant yet sturdy. The type of skirt you look elegant in but is comfortable and practical. Ah the things that are lost in our progressive age.
Dear miss Bernadette, I just wanted to let you know that, every time you say you seek to improve your cinematic storytelling on say a skillshare sponsorship, IT REALLY SHOWS WOW! Every video is just more and more lovely. Keep being your wonderful self. Footnote: hey guys we saw her sew a *button*!
The reveal twirl was my favourite moment of the many wonderful shots. I don't have a purpose for a black walking skirt, but if I do find myself in need of one one day, I'll know which UA-camr to go to. 🤗
The curious twinkly music speaks to my soul! Definitely expected you to disappear into the ether at the end of that running away shot - off on more time travel adventures ✨
I adore your storytelling so much. This video has calmed down on a busy day, and it came in the perfect time - I am currently in the planning and gathering supplies stage of making my next walking skirt, and this helped me to make up my mind on whether I wanted to use a hem braid or not. Thank you for your wonderful work, as always, Bernadette :)
I find the sound of Bernadette's shears absolutely intoxicating! I could listen to her cut fabric all day. Makes me wish I had a pair, and had such lovely fabric and surroundings to sew in.
That shot of you walking away in that field, while your skirt and cape flow in the wind, is my aesthetic. Speaking of aesthetic, I don't know how practical those nails are for you, but they are very aesthetically pleasing.
This is one of my favourite videos so far. Not specifically yours, but that I've ever seen. Urged me to finally finish the skirt I've been postponing for a while.
It's official, I want a vampire movie starring Bernadette Banner and directed by Bernadette Banner. It will be a film of mystery, romance of the long forgotten past, and magical nostalgia as history is explored and lore uncovered. I will not accept anything of lesser quality. (I edited to play with the wording a bit but the original point is the same)
A few weeks ago I was sewing a stuffed mouse for my cat and my mom came by and was shocked to see I was ironing the hem. I just thought "well of course I have to iron it, I want it to look nice!" She might think I'm crazy now 🤷
I was so thrilled Bernadette to see another seamstress, sew on a button the "correct" way. Just made me smile. I try to teach it to anyone who needs this knowledge.
I immediately rewatched that section when I saw. Need to sew some buttons later and this is different than some of the purchased clothing I've resewn buttons onto. May be looking for a more detailed video before getting started now that I know this is Bernadette's way.
@@alyssakarnitz Cross two pins on fabric, place the button on top of the pins and hold in place. Thread needle with both ends through the eye so you will make a loop going which you needle through and you won't have a knot! I learned this tedious and professional way in my first sewing program when I was 12 in 4H. I haven't sewn a button wrong since. P.S. taking the time to do it the right way, I've never lost a button yet (over 47 years). They are even hard to remove they're so strudy. Good luck.
@@alyssakarnitz I find that on "Fast Fashion" the buttons are so recklessly sewn on, I just take it upon myself to remove and resew correctly. A job worth doing, is a job worth doing well grandmother said.
Can I thank you for existing? When I made a crochet picket shawl commission, I wanted to line the hood. The best/easiest way was with hand stitching. After having watched nearly all of your videos, I felt confident in the process, and I am flabbergasted at how well it ended up. You are a wonder, inspiration, and a light in tbe dark times. 💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚
The opening shot made me say, “oh no! Bernadette slipped and fell on the wet sidewalk!” [I kid, I kid!] But seriously, if you ever decided to pursue a career as a cinematographer, I’d imagine it would be yours for the asking. Such gorgeous shots.
Here in wet and windy Wales and I've just sorted out my fabric pile for my next bunch of projects. On the list for tomorrow actually dig out the patterns I need, redraft the bits that need adjusting and finish the dugaree assembly before I can move on to corset and petticoats.
I would LOVE to wear the clothes you make! Watching your videos actually comfort me, they allow me to reminisce when my mother made my Christmas and Easter dresses. She used her hands all the time, she sewed, she knitted, crocheted, painted.....oh! And she was classically trained on the piano where she never stopped playing. But then she began to lose her memory, yes she sadly passed of Alzheimer’s a few years ago. Watching your videos takes me back to memories where I watched my mother create things with her hands that she loved doing. It saddens me that I was more interested in designer clothes made outside of my country, likely in a shop where work conditions are likely less than....I still have my red prom dress my mother handmade for me. Thank you for showcasing your craft, talent, gift and love for an era that many of us adore too. Being a seamstress, a seamster and trailer is an incredible gift - your artistry makes me realize that this craft is not a dying art. I love your style. ❤️
The dedication of setting up the camera, pressing record, walking away, walking back into frame and looking around aesthetically, then retrieving the camera, all for this delicious B-roll :)
I’m headed to London in May for a browse through the fabric district! A dream come true for this 75 year old and it will be my first solo trip to Europe! So excited to get my hands on all those yummy materials!
This is one of my absolute favorite videos of yours now, the reminiscences of sitting by the window on rainy days by fire embroidering and sewing with my grandmother….thank you for walking back into the past and bringing back beautiful memories.
Bernadette’s tailoring is so precise that they’ll probably find her garments in like a hundred years, assume it’s pristine Victorian wear and then be astonished to find that she actually lived in the 21st century.
Appreciated the "French seams" commentary. I haven't used them myself, yet. To hear your work in progress thoughts, and to see the outcome (vs reading it somewhere) is the content I need. That you encase this education in your ambient mood confection cinematography makes it a joy to learn about sewing/hand sewing/historical fashion. Thank you! 👏
I am a beginner. I wanted to make my sister a satin pillowcase. My friend suggested french seams. I had to research them. They are wonderful and not difficult.
*ambient mood confection cinematography*: perfect! UA-cam should use it an official video category that one could browse and sample at will. Brilliant genre identifier!
I feel like Bernadette hid an entire story about a sleeping vampire who wakes up and goes in search of her usual spots in the future. I need the rest of the story, with a sequel and a prequel tv show.. omg this video was so well made!!!
Without a doubt… this is by far your most beautiful video to date. Cinematically so pleasing to watch…. It was balanced and fluid and just lovely to experience… you lady…. Set the bar high

Pinafores are the perfect accompaniment!
I just love how everything is made "traditionnaly" but she lights her candles with a friggin' laser 😂
Millennial Victorian. Given the opportunity absolutely no Millennial will light a candle with anything less than an electric lighter as shown....
Because it's better for the environment than single use or refillable gas lighters 😅

It’s the way she live the aesthetic so naturally without it feeling try hardish or cringy 😭
My mending and alteration pile is rapidly shrinking as I sew along with you. However my list of new project ideas is unexplainably growing.
God can I relate to this on a spiritual level. Except my mending pile also grows as I have the unfortunate tendency to go inline skating in some of my favorite clothes only to come back home with rips in them.
Yes. This is where I am.
Such a mood. Truth.
and my stash pile too - together with the patterns I want to make from the fabric!
I missed “tailoring” in the title and thought this was going to be 20 minutes of aesthetic walking in the rain. And I was here for it!
misty afternoons and miss banner's sewing endeavours simply go hand in hand
Every time I see you hand stiching, I'm reminded of what my mum told me when she was teaching me how to sew: "do not be afraid to hand stich or finish a garment by hand, this is how clothes used to be made before sewing machines were invented". Love it
Haute courtier is handmade not machined .
You sewing in the lamp/candlelight with your hair flowing around you is the most perfectly, poignantly gothic thing I have ever seen.
Me: am I gay?
Bernadette: sewing with her hair down by candle light
Me: yes
I love the anachronisms in it too. Lighting the candle with the cool electric zapper thing and the airpods.
@@trying_my_bestest that electric taser like thing gave me a "what the heck?!" moment !
As a connoisseur of fine captions I must thank you for your additions to my favorites list: “Music to lightly bop to,” and “Unspecified School of Magic Music.” Both gave me a hearty chuckle and left a smile upon my face.
This felt more like a movie than a sewing video.
I was just thinking that. :)
Bernadette's videos tend to have this quality. If you enjoyed it, I'd recommend checking out the others.
I love the juxtaposition of old and new in this video: sewing with a treadle machine and pressing with a very modern ironing system, lighting a candle with an arc lighter before sitting down to sew by hand.
i never seen anyone so bravely and confidently make buttonholes
"a brave buttonhole"
Man. The cinematography. The music. The lighting. Bernadette, you've truly captured the elegance of a Victorian Millennial and the mixed melancholy and comfort of a rainy day in such a fantastic way here. This may be one of my favorite videos of yours to date. A true joy to watch 💙
PURRRRfectly stated Cera!!!
I'm sorry but I was incredibly distracted by the nail polish color in this video: it suits you very well!!! The skirt looks gorgeous and durable, I shall look into this worsted wool fabric in the future (I wonder if it could be used for a 1890s frock coat, or if the texture is too rough). It was sometimes hard to tell how the stitches looked because of the white balance in the shots where it was mostly the fabric on screen, but it might also be my computer (and I'm sure black fabric and diaphanous white light don't like to work together). Nonetheless, this was a lovely and informative video and inspires me to find some free time to sew again.
Ah yes exposing for ghost hands and black fabric is a special sort of torture; if I ever decide to make a tutorial, I shall not be using black! 😅
The only thing I noticed about the dark nail color was that against black fabric it was difficult to see your fingertips holding a needle - if that makes sense. I enjoy watching your exquisite hand sewing and it was rather difficult to see your technique in detail at times.
@@bernadettebanner Please, please can you tell me the name of that nail polish? It's the perfect shade that embodies my dark academia fantasies.
@@unusualInferno This I can relate to!
yesss
I’m distracted by those beautiful nails, they’re such a romantic color. I thought it was a deep black but when I saw them in the light they’re really a deep wine color? Stunning
I wonder how many hearts fluttered seeing you in the grounds of that rather fascinating church - and agree - the sounds of your videos are SO soothing
Because she looks like a Victorian ghost?
Overheard today at a fiber arts show. “After watching Bernadette Banner, I finally found someone who likes hand sewing more than me!” 😂
Hey, I just wanted to say thank you by sharing something personal.
I'm not the kind of person whose into sewing or quilting, but my mom was. She made blankets years ago for kids who had none (part of a non-profit thing), and when she'd make those blankets, I'd curl up on the couch or somewhere nearby, drink some tea, and relax. That was when I was little, and without going into detail, something bad happened, and she and I don't talk to each other anymore.
Your content is warm. It is deliberate, diligent, and fascinating. I can sit with a cup of coffee or tea, snuggle with my cat, and watch/listen to it in the background and it's genuinely wonderful. Even a couple times, I feel like I can relax like I did years ago. It's funny how someone else's hobby has a crazy way of making you feel like you're at home.
Weird, I know. I still hope this made you smile, that your day is amazing, and whatever you're doing, I want you knowing that the world is better for it. Thank you for everything you do.
Tammerin S. I feel Bernadette's presence is a Balm for the Soul
@@grizeldaxxx4568 this is absolutely apparent lol
@@tammerins.3313 and just what the Dr ordered hahaa x ps thanks for sharing Your memory and Your vulnerability x I have buried a lot of my memories because of trauma ..including the good ones ...so I too find Bernadette is helping to shift my brain pathways for the better x
Anyone else ever watched one of these, recognize another garment made in an older video, go check when the video was made, and feel weird that you remember what Bernadette was wearing like a year ago?
That cape is still fabulous.
But I love that Cape! I still have the pattern... and now I finally have material to make it!!! double inspiration :)
The sheer ammount of gothic, halloween vibes makes this little nerd so so happy! Just adding running through a tree lined street on a cloudy day with a dramatic skirt to my bucket list ❤️
That was so dramatic and I am absolutely here for it. Also the shot of you sitting on the couch hand sewing looking perfectly late 19th century but with airpods in is just *chef's kiss* perfect. I love that hahah.
That music! So hauntingly beautiful, with those witchy vibes. You’ve outdone yourself with that intro. I love how the train takes the skirt up to a whole other level, it looks so elegant, and the silhouette is just perfect. *chef’s kiss*
The way the skirt and capelet flow when you run, makes an ethereal effect that causes it to look like you are floating rather than running!
Huh. I thought “home clothes”and “other than home clothes” was about preserving my other than home clothes from being coated in cat hair, and avoiding delicate materials which won’t withstand claws.
Having a cat myself
(Houdini) I can surely relate to that. You made me think of old fashioned garment bags! I don't think it wouldn't take too much time to draft a pattern and find some good material to make it from. I wonder if Victorians and Edwardians had garment bags?
Saaaaaaame, my "outside" clothes have 80% less cat hair on them than my "inside" clothes XD
We have an American Bulldog, can confirm. Anything worn around the house gets covered in ‘glitter’ aka tiny stabby white hairs that resist all dog-hair-removal tools. Everyone has ‘house’ clothes and ‘dog walking’ clothes and ‘normal’ clothes. 🤣
@@TrappedinSLC try masking tape. Always use the "name brand" - I like 'Scotch' brand - it does make a difference in masking tape. I use it similar to how one uses a lint roller and it is MUCH cheaper and lasts longer! If you want WIDE tape, check your hardware store in the paint section. Normally comes in 1/2, 1 and 2 inch sizes at my big box store.
@@m.maclellan7147 I’ll try that. His hairs are very short and coarse so they just stab into things. Like I’ve actually gotten a ‘splinter’ from a stray hair. Felt like I’d stepped on a needle.
"unspecified school of magic music" "inquisitive music" i love the subtitles
People are always surprised when I show them how big my Victorian pockets are in my more recent projects. I refuse to make another wardrobe project without pockets ever again thanks to learning better from you!
I am sure that at least 75% of the Victorian ghost sittings in lovely England are simply people catching a glimpse of Bernadette modeling her lovely new garments. Keep up the spooky work!
It would be interesting to know how many "Victorian ghost" incidents are indeed just people in historical clothing...
Brazilian foggy days are for watching Bernadette tailoring videos while thinking about how every single shot makes for a amazing oil pastel illustration
ce eh br?
Ah, yes, the practicality of having clothes for going out and clothes for staying in. I, too, have discovered the benefits of wearing house dresses that only cross the threshold to feed the outdoor cats and changing into proper going out clothes to run errands and do business. Both my cats and my children know that when I wear certain things, I'm either on my way out or I just got home. Always love a good shirt making video!
I truly enjoyed this video. I particularly enjoyed -- I am NOT weird -- the sounds of the tailoring activities: cutting, marking, snipping, stitching, swishing, what have you. The soundtrack music, which was, as always, a perfect accompaniment to the visual experience and narration, did not obscure the delightful sounds of the intricate work being accomplished. Somehow this added auditory dimension just struck me, today, as being especially satisfying. The single most accurate descriptive word for Bernadettian content is "intimate," i.e., the immersive experience of Mistress B. performing her gentle and graceful art for our enjoyment and edification, and I think these little, barely noticeable sounds kind of make it feel like you're watching over our good-lady's shoulder, rather than just viewing a UA-cam video. Well done, Miss Banner, well done!
@@OdeInWessex Many thanks! I will take a look.
Yes, you said it all for me.
@@OdeInWessex Thank you very much!
You're certainly not bizarre. This description is a big yes by me, too. The sounds of fabric being snipped is just *makes happy faces*.
I grew up with a mother, who sewed a lot and the sound of fabric scissors and sewing machines is the auditory equivalent to cookie smell for me. Just makes me feel happy and content.
“Victorian roguery of recent yore”
“Maximum snack storage”
Bernadette, you’re amazing, sis!
It says a lot about me that my first thought at seeing the huge Victorian pockets was "wow, you could fit a book into those".
One of the more satisfying parts of this video is watching Bernadette working with those black nails, it just feel so powerful.
The final shot against the ornate gates was superb! Remembering back to when you first learned about the pocket hanging tapes (and why they are necessary). Your channel definitely shows by example the benefit of practical costume history--showing the why behind certain practices (also, e.g. hem tape or brush tape).
Do you remember which video that was? I’m interested in learning more about that pocket tape.
@@stargirl7646 It first came up here ua-cam.com/video/za40PYeJU6c/v-deo.html but then she neglected to put actually insert the tape in the skirt, and then commented on realizing the necessity of it (i.e. without it, heavy items in pocket pull on the side seam as opposed to the waistband). I haven't seen if she mentioned the pocket hanging tape in a video between these two . . .
Re: the faded cotton twill skirt, when I lived in England there was a product sold in the laundry section of some supermarkets that was essentially black dye suitable for cottons designed to be used in a front loading washing machine to refresh faded black clothing. I only used it a couple of times but it did work quite well, though of course anything not-cotton may not take the dye or might take it oddly, like buttons or zippers or similar. So either remove anything you don’t want to end up being dyed in advance, or accept some adventure. (Though of course something like a black button isn’t going to show much color change anyway since it’s black.) I believe they had a navy blue option also, but I can’t remember for sure. At any rate it might be worth looking into? It’s by weight so I’d guess you could probably do the skirt and maybe one or two tops or the equivalent.
People overdye faded black regularly. What you describe sounds like Rit dye. Which is in grocery stores here, and fades. You want to use procion dye, in a bucket.
I’ve been over dying my black clothes for years, washing, drying, ironing and typical wear and tear takes a toll on all fabric. My older clothes of Quality fabric are much better than what’s on the market today!
When I was in college a hundred years ago, all my friends were urban hipsters (a category of person I had never met before and was entranced by) and wore nothing but black. Every few months a bunch of these girls would get together with several boxes of Rit to overdye their black clothes and bring them back to life. It worked really well. Everybody stayed super-hip for longer! (Later in life, at a Catholic university, I met a European philosophy professor who wore elegant, all-black suits every day....somewhat spoiled by the fact that, quite regularly, he would be walking to class and kids he'd never seen before would respectfully greet him, saying "Hi Father"!).
I've seen Rit and Dylon at the big Fabricstore near me, as well. I'm pretty sure they also make a version for synthetic fibers.
@@teagan_p_999 There’s a few for synthetics and at least one for a blend of both. The nice thing about the packs I mentioned is just that everything is in the package, you don’t need to add salt or measure anything or any of that like you often do. It’s more convenient. 😄
A word of thanks to you. I have slowed down and stopped cutting corners in my historical creations. Now, I embrace the process of all the hand sewing, marking, basting, etc. Satisfaction factor has jumped.
I came to learn sewing and stayed for the the ASMR like qualities that is your voice and music choices, set with the soft thunking of your sewing machine.
You look positively witchy :)
if I didn’t know you edited the sewing part of the video in quite a hurry I wouldn’t be able to tell to be honest. Great work.
Can we take a moment for how cinematically beautiful the WHOLE video was, especially those rainy shots at the beginning! So so stunning 😍
The cinematography that you do in your videos are so wonderful. It makes it seem it is a large documentary.
This got me in the mood for autumn like nothing else. It has turned me into a ghost. We are all Victorian witches now. Let the turnip carving begin.
I always wonder if a Victorian era ghost walks by Bernadette and is like "Hey I also own that coat!"
Seeing pockets pattern: Yeaaah!
Hearing "pockets for maximum snack storage": YEAAAAAAAh!!
Oh, watching you work and narrate it all is so relaxing! Plus, the sound of your sewing machine in action is so nostalgic. A gorgeous skirt for going about, too. And glorious pockets for snackage.
I was raised with home clothes and outside clothes( various activities separated of course) I feel like a time traveler watching you.... I like that.
me, reading the title, in the tone you would use with a 5 year old who took the last cookie from the jar: Bernadette, did you sew another skirt...?
😂 lovely video as always, madam! 🥰 oh, and your nails are adorable! very October 🎃🖤
I think you deserve to star in period short film at this point, the visuals are so amazing
My puppy was mesmerized by your intro music and your walking in the rain. Hope this makes you smile.
The perfect settings, candle light, and magical music - Bernadette knows how to convey that sewing is a grand adventure!
Your videos always makes me feel so safe and out of the world. Between the music, the colors, the light and the slow hand stiches... it makes me want to start 3000 new projects while being cosy next to a fire with a tea and cookies. Thank you for your work!
All of these fabulous additions to your wardrobe, I think we definitely need an updated wardrobe tour! I'd love to see which one of the more historical construction, or costume type pieces, you've kept for everyday use, along with the old wardrobe staples that are still hopefully trucking along! 😊 (Also, that Edwardian wrap cape is giving me EVERYTHING right now 😍)
This is style of walking skirt is definitely on my next project list. Beautiful job as always with both the sewing and video! ❤
That cape is awesome! she has a video on it and the pattern was free!
@@laurathornton8588 Yes!! The video where she partnered with American Duchess, love it! :)
This came at a very opportune time, as I needed a break from hunching over a desk for hours.
Wonderfully aesthetic video as always. I love the addition of new music. The wrap cape and skirt combo seems like a good substitute for that ultimate witchy vibe, until you inevitably make your own McGonnagall robe to twirl in and scold errant wizards
These never get old. Cheers, Madam!
having a really rough day at work, only to find one of Bernadette's calming video's is just the perfect turnaround for my Friday afternoon.
Brilliant how you continued your video while reading the sponsor. I didn't want to fast forward through it like I do every other ad on YT.
I love the way this particular pattern and material hang. It has a heaviness about it that is very elegant yet sturdy. The type of skirt you look elegant in but is comfortable and practical. Ah the things that are lost in our progressive age.
Dear miss Bernadette,
I just wanted to let you know that, every time you say you seek to improve your cinematic storytelling on say a skillshare sponsorship, IT REALLY SHOWS WOW! Every video is just more and more lovely. Keep being your wonderful self.
Footnote: hey guys we saw her sew a *button*!
The reveal twirl was my favourite moment of the many wonderful shots. I don't have a purpose for a black walking skirt, but if I do find myself in need of one one day, I'll know which UA-camr to go to. 🤗
I love how you achieve so much gothic aesthetic within earshot of one of the busiest roads in central London!
The curious twinkly music speaks to my soul! Definitely expected you to disappear into the ether at the end of that running away shot - off on more time travel adventures ✨
Tremendous work! Beautiful cinematography, atmospheric music, fascinating storytelling, witty and informative script, perfect editing....and, almost incidentally, a lovely and useful garment. Sigh 😍!
I only just discovered Bernadette 1 week ago because of the hair experiment video. And I've nearly completely watched all the videos. Love it.
Same
Welcome both to the Bernadette appreciation society :)
Bernadette makes me want to live a more productive life, she's so inspiring in her own, pure way, love you ❤️😭
I adore your storytelling so much. This video has calmed down on a busy day, and it came in the perfect time - I am currently in the planning and gathering supplies stage of making my next walking skirt, and this helped me to make up my mind on whether I wanted to use a hem braid or not. Thank you for your wonderful work, as always, Bernadette :)
I find the sound of Bernadette's shears absolutely intoxicating! I could listen to her cut fabric all day. Makes me wish I had a pair, and had such lovely fabric and surroundings to sew in.
That shot of you walking away in that field, while your skirt and cape flow in the wind, is my aesthetic. Speaking of aesthetic, I don't know how practical those nails are for you, but they are very aesthetically pleasing.
I actually think they help keep the fabric in line and are used like tools (just from watching these videos) ...not too long as to get in the way .
This is one of my favourite videos so far. Not specifically yours, but that I've ever seen. Urged me to finally finish the skirt I've been postponing for a while.
i love reading the subtitles for the music description: “unspecified school of magic music”
As someone that doesn’t know how to sew, I have to say I was absolutely mesmerized by this video and Bernadette’s talent.
It's official, I want a vampire movie starring Bernadette Banner and directed by Bernadette Banner. It will be a film of mystery, romance of the long forgotten past, and magical nostalgia as history is explored and lore uncovered. I will not accept anything of lesser quality.
(I edited to play with the wording a bit but the original point is the same)
A few weeks ago I was sewing a stuffed mouse for my cat and my mom came by and was shocked to see I was ironing the hem. I just thought "well of course I have to iron it, I want it to look nice!"
She might think I'm crazy now 🤷
I was so thrilled Bernadette to see another seamstress, sew on a button the "correct" way. Just made me smile. I try to teach it to anyone who needs this knowledge.
I immediately rewatched that section when I saw. Need to sew some buttons later and this is different than some of the purchased clothing I've resewn buttons onto. May be looking for a more detailed video before getting started now that I know this is Bernadette's way.
@@ameliagfawkes512 hello. I use a matchstick. The "coarser" finish stops it moving. Or for a finer lift a cocktail stick - again a wooden one.
@@alyssakarnitz Cross two pins on fabric, place the button on top of the pins and hold in place. Thread needle with both ends through the eye so you will make a loop going which you needle through and you won't have a knot! I learned this tedious and professional way in my first sewing program when I was 12 in 4H. I haven't sewn a button wrong since. P.S. taking the time to do it the right way, I've never lost a button yet (over 47 years). They are even hard to remove they're so strudy. Good luck.
@@alyssakarnitz I find that on "Fast Fashion" the buttons are so recklessly sewn on, I just take it upon myself to remove and resew correctly. A job worth doing, is a job worth doing well grandmother said.
@@ameliagfawkes512 I was taught to use toothpicks behind it.
Can I thank you for existing? When I made a crochet picket shawl commission, I wanted to line the hood. The best/easiest way was with hand stitching. After having watched nearly all of your videos, I felt confident in the process, and I am flabbergasted at how well it ended up. You are a wonder, inspiration, and a light in tbe dark times. 💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚
The opening shot made me say, “oh no! Bernadette slipped and fell on the wet sidewalk!” [I kid, I kid!] But seriously, if you ever decided to pursue a career as a cinematographer, I’d imagine it would be yours for the asking. Such gorgeous shots.
Here in wet and windy Wales and I've just sorted out my fabric pile for my next bunch of projects. On the list for tomorrow actually dig out the patterns I need, redraft the bits that need adjusting and finish the dugaree assembly before I can move on to corset and petticoats.
You appeared like a shade of a Victorian lady strolling through the church yard. I wonder if you gave someone a fright. You looked simply elegant.
I would LOVE to wear the clothes you make!
Watching your videos actually comfort me, they allow me to reminisce when my mother made my Christmas and Easter dresses. She used her hands all the time, she sewed, she knitted, crocheted, painted.....oh! And she was classically trained on the piano where she never stopped playing. But then she began to lose her memory, yes she sadly passed of Alzheimer’s a few years ago.
Watching your videos takes me back to memories where I watched my mother create things with her hands that she loved doing. It saddens me that I was more interested in designer clothes made outside of my country, likely in a shop where work conditions are likely less than....I still have my red prom dress my mother handmade for me.
Thank you for showcasing your craft, talent, gift and love for an era that many of us adore too. Being a seamstress, a seamster and trailer is an incredible gift - your artistry makes me realize that this craft is not a dying art. I love your style. ❤️
The dedication of setting up the camera, pressing record, walking away, walking back into frame and looking around aesthetically, then retrieving the camera, all for this delicious B-roll :)
I’m headed to London in May for a browse through the fabric district! A dream come true for this 75 year old and it will be my first solo trip to Europe! So excited to get my hands on all those yummy materials!
This is one of my absolute favorite videos of yours now, the reminiscences of sitting by the window on rainy days by fire embroidering and sewing with my grandmother….thank you for walking back into the past and bringing back beautiful memories.
Bernadette’s tailoring is so precise that they’ll probably find her garments in like a hundred years, assume it’s pristine Victorian wear and then be astonished to find that she actually lived in the 21st century.
I hope she has custom labels so archivists will know who made her garments.
how weird, this comment is an exact copy of a more popular one. theres no creativity here at all
Appreciated the "French seams" commentary. I haven't used them myself, yet. To hear your work in progress thoughts, and to see the outcome (vs reading it somewhere) is the content I need. That you encase this education in your ambient mood confection cinematography makes it a joy to learn about sewing/hand sewing/historical fashion. Thank you! 👏
I am a beginner. I wanted to make my sister a satin pillowcase. My friend suggested french seams. I had to research them. They are wonderful and not difficult.
*ambient mood confection cinematography*: perfect! UA-cam should use it an official video category that one could browse and sample at will. Brilliant genre identifier!
Finally a vídeo of her sewing again!!!💖💖💖
I feel like Bernadette hid an entire story about a sleeping vampire who wakes up and goes in search of her usual spots in the future. I need the rest of the story, with a sequel and a prequel tv show.. omg this video was so well made!!!
Without a doubt… this is by far your most beautiful video to date. Cinematically so pleasing to watch…. It was balanced and fluid and just lovely to experience… you lady…. Set the bar high
I just went to the fabric shop today but now I have a strong desire to acquire some high quality tailor's chalk. Those clean lines are so satisfying
