    button foot wins my vote as it can be used for other things like hook and eyes, and saves more time than the buttonhole foot because it swaps hand stitching for machine stitching whereas the buttonhole foot just makes the machine stitching slightly easier. both are great though and I might just be biased because my machine didn't come with a buttonhole foot, so I could just be trying to make myself feel better by downplaying its greatness 😊

      What! That’s amazing 🥹 I just learned about this foot today and it can save me from the hook and eyes? Buttonhole foot isn’t too bad but I never knew what it was for because my grandmas machine didn’t have one so I usually just forget it exists but now this button foot 😏 is a different issue. That sounds lit 🔥my hook and eyes are always so ugly 😭

    Yay! I was wondering if you knew Lizard! I love their channel, & their amazing cos plays. I'm definitely team buttonhole foot. To speed up sewing on buttons by hand, double the thread before you put it through the needle, so that you sew with a quadruple thickness. Your coat is so lovely! But commercial patterns add a lot of ease, so for historic-style garments, or costumes, you can often size down. Greetings from Czechia!

    The worst thing for me about commercial patterns,p is how the measurements listed aren’t the finished measurements. I just made a mock-up of a pinafore pattern and found out that the size that should have fit me perfectly according to the measurements has about 5 inches of ease and so I’m gonna have to size down 2 to 3 sizes.

    • @SarahSpaceman
      @SarahSpaceman  2 роки тому +16

    i've been watching a tonnnn of your videos lately and i love how well edited they all are! you're so good at explaining concepts while still keeping it fun and interesting and i'm a little obsessed. i found you while looking at wig styling videos and HAD to see the miku one, but i've been watching more while working on a veryyy simple cosplay to wear at my job during a local con in like 2 weeks (i work at a ramen shop half a block from the hotel it's held at, so you can imagine how it goes).
    i used to cosplay a bit back whwen i was in high school/early college and haven't really touched it in a few years, so i feel really rusty. watching you "overexplain" some sewing basics has either been informative or exciting for me, since i can't remember how or if anyone ever actually taught me some basics, and when i see i actually have been doing things correctly i feel accomplished lol.
    it's a shame i'm not into genshin because i might have watched this video earlier, ideally 2 weeks earlier when i was making a vest for a quick sanji cosplay for work and totally fucked it up twice. i might have saved myself some time seeing this sooner. same with the buttonholes, i just hand sewed them yesterday and they are crustyyyyy
    anyway, i love your videos! you made me want to get back into cosplaying, even if we cosplay totally different things. never in my life have i ever wanted to try to make a frilly dress, but now i kinda do :)

    So, for those of you who want to make your comercial patterns more robust, there is a neet trick that Costuming Drama put out there. What you do is take a waxed baking sheet paper and on the lowest setting of your iron, wax side down on the paper, iron it onto the pattern paper. It will stick to the pattern paper, make it strong enough to fold up neatly and easy to store. This will extend the life of your pattern and make it nicer to use.

    I think commercial patterns are good for a beginner BUT they're outdated. I don't know how to pattern draft clothing, and many don't. We're more of a visual society now and commercial pattern companies need to start making video's for their patterns. Then when someone has the basics, they can pattern draft. But yeah, the language in patterns is so much harder to understand then it's needs to be lol

    Commercial patterns have an absurd amount of ease built in. The assumption from Big Four pattern companies is that you will make a muslin/mock-up for any garment for which you have bought a pattern. For something like a coat or a tailored dress, that's not necessarily an unreasonable assumption.
    It is absolutely absurd assumption for *baby clothes.* The ease in the baby sleeper pattern I tried to use was an *entire year's* worth of baby sizes too big. (Baby clothes are sized by months/years of age.)

    No, no. That is not an unpopular opinion about comercial patterns. I hate them. I have used a solid 3 in my life despite sewing since I was 9.
    Also the buttonhole foot is cooler. Handmade or bound buttonholes are dicks, sewing on a button is easy. Plus the only problem I ever hear about sewing on a button is if you do it too tight it can pucker the fabric, which can easily be fixed by putting a pin in the fabric horizontally if you are sewing it in vertically or vice versa. Or ya know just don't do it so tight, but some peeps struggle with that and that's okay.
