    Nicole Rudolph channel. She is a dress historian. And Bernadette Banner.
    Those two are the gateway to the Costube community. Their content is incredible fore sewing including use of historical materials and techniques and helps a person understand why one thing works better than another.
    After those two: Morgan Donner, Abby Cox, Lady Rebecca Fashions, and Costuming Drama.
    Early in the pandemic, Costuming Drama did a series of 20 question videos to introduce various Costubers which has a number of others.

      This is a really good point. I enjoy watching lots of sewing channels but as a fat person, I know most of the stuff they are making would not look remotely similar on my own body. I have yet to find a plus size sewing channel by someone with the same taste in clothes as me. I am very minimal and modest, I don't want to make clown-y costumes or ruffly, lacey, overly fancy stuff.

    @sandihj Рік тому +17

    Excellent recommendations! I would add one more must-follow - The Closet Historian. If you are interested in pattern drafting, her channel is far and away the most detailed and clearest demonstration of drafting. Most of her videos involve drafting and then sewing a garment starting from a sloper, and go deeply into how to manipulate the very basic bodice and skirt into just about any style you want. It’s challenging, fascinating, and very empowering.

    My favourite is the Closet Historian. Bianca has a degree in fashion and the accompanying debt but don’t let that put you off. The woman can design, draught and sew the most exquisite clothing and if you like vintage/space/Victorian you are in for a treat. Then she will make some jewellery or a hat to go with it. Love her work even the futuristic space vintage stuff that I sometimes have trouble understanding (I’m 76). She does all this without ever being cutesy, just an adult who loves fashion and can explain how anyone can have whatever style of clothing they want. The secret is a basic block pattern.

    I think it depends on what you are looking for: techniques, fitting, inspiration. For straightforward "how to sew" : Professor Pincushion, and also for pattern drawing system: "Sure Fit Designs" , for patterns and how to fit them: Silhouette Patterns. How to fit commercial patterns: Palmer Pletsch / Martha Alto method applied a.o. by Joy Bernhard who is a very good teacher of she makes ( including quilts) and very entertaining. For pattern - fabric combination " Sew Essential". Simplified sewing principles: "Thoughtful creativity". Once you have your basic pieces: tea, blouse, skirt, pants well fitted, depending on your skills and amount of time you want to spend on the project, you can adapt any pattern to your figure. You can find on UA-cam wearing do's and don'ts for each type of figure.
    I also like like to watch "silent" demonstrations of techniques "Atelier Saison" or of transformations like "Lena sewing", "Le Fashion"...

    No offense to anyone intended, but a live-stream ‘sew-along’ sounds like a nightmare to me. I chose sewing as hobby partly because I usually *don’t want to chat* with anyone, and I like to go at my own slow pace, whatever I do. So hiking, gardening, crafts, reading . . . things I can do in quiet solitude to renew/recover from things that are more social or hectic. But thank you so much for these videos. Very helpful! ❤️

    This is nice, as I'm always looking for new sewing channels. I do follow most of the channels mentioned. .I would be remiss if I did not mention some of my faves:
    AnitaByDesign- does great sew-a-longs. Step by Step, very detailed. She also has a online sewing school. Anita was the first one I found that really spoke to beginners
    Manecoarse - though she does not do direct sew-a-longs...her sewing techniques, tricks, tips and creations are very inspiring and helps me to think outside of the box
    Brittanyjjones- She has a lot of sew-a-longs and she is one who I find very detailed in her directions as well.
    MimiG- one of the first ones I followed when I started sewing. It's hard to go wrong with her, especially her earlier videos. She also has an online school- Sew It Academy.
    Professor Pincushion- I don't know how I would do what I do without her. If I have a question about anything...I can find the answer and solution in one of her UA-cam videos. This is a great sewing resource.

      It really depends on what you’re looking for
      I started out with $100 dollar singer and it did ok. When the kids came along and I was sewing all the clothes except the shoes and socks and all my clothes too. I saved up and invested in a Husqvarna Viking. It was the first computerised machine. My mum had a number of machines over the years her last was a Husqvarna and she loved it
      I got my husky in 92 it was expensive but did many hours of hard work and never broke down not once. It still works well.
      2017 I was given a gift - the Husqvarna topaz 50 it’s an embroidery machine but I don’t really use the embroidery part
      It has many many features but most importantly it’s sews a brilliantly straight line and does really good buttonholes
      I don’t think you can go past a Husqvarna and they do a range of machines and prices
      The parts are easy to get and if you start getting creative there lots of extras you can buy although again I will admit it far from the cheapest.
      There are some good reviews and educational videos of Husqvarna on UA-cam including the Topaz 50
      I want to make the point I neither work for Husqvarna and I’m not sponsored by them I just like their machines
      Hope that helps a bit

    Hi, I really want to leave a tip of another sewing channel that too many people seem to miss. The Closet Historian. This channel shows you how to pattern draft and sew garments from scratch. She is mainly interested in the 1930's, 40's and 50's so she mainly sew dresses and blouses and skirts from that era. Though she has done a full 1880's project and a 1990's project too.
    The best thing in my opinion, with this lady is her voice overs and her "ramblings" as she calls them. She will tell small anecdotes and stories while she talks about how and why she chooses to draft a princess seam to the neckline and not to the shoulder or why she chooses to not sew darts in stead in this particular case, while making it very easy to follow what she is doing. And most importantly, at least for me, making it seem like this is something I could make myself using her methods. All the while telling anyone new that she and her sewing machine has a pact drawn in blood that makes it so that she can sew over pins without problems and tell you that you will have to work the same out with your machine yourself (I did with my vintage Husqvarna, and I can sew over pins too and he's never given me any grief about it). I think she is known for her two 1 hour dress videos. One is more ramblingerly than the other, but both good if you want to make one. I hour dress that is.
    This Lady can read you the phone book and make you stay and listen all he way to the end, and she genuinely believe that anybody can do what she does, and she doesn't dumb anything down ever. Have a look at one of her videos for exempel this one ua-cam.com/video/hVywMU9Yg-A/v-deo.html or this one is from today, Dec 1, 2022, ua-cam.com/video/7kNcjzVevco/v-deo.html which is a bit unusual but good one. Enjoy. Yours, Ann

    Thoughtful creativity is the best of all these recommendations. But I'm confused as to why you would recommend a video on sergers. Most of your viewers and the viewers of that channel don't have sergers. In fact most of the home sewing community doesn't have a serger. It's much better recommend Elise's basic pattern drafting tutorials. These work for everyone. And they are so needed because most people don't fit a standard commercial sewing pattern. You need your basic blocks to adapt sewing patterns to fit you.
