      Can you try traditional body & face care + daily routine from 17th & 16th century of different countries??
      # TRY Everyday traditional food from different countries like Japan, France, UK etc
      # there is Buly1803 has body oil & wash made since 1800s + Aker fasi for red lip + the ionized cleansing face water as a face wash
      Also Japanese women used camellia oil for moisturising the face & the hair too + adzuki beans as face scrub + sake homemade toner
      ●for clothes there are the corsets & many old fashioned clothes from many brands available on IG & online

    Such a cute pattern. I want to share a few things I find helpful when making gathers in case you have novice sewers out there. One is to sew two rows of gathering stitches instead of just one. Not only is it helpful to already have that “bonus” thread if one breaks, but I find it is easier to pull two threads than just one.
    The second tip is to be sure to pull the bobbin thread as you gather. It seems to be a bit looser, therefore it pulls more easily. I usually pull on one end of the thread until I get to the middle, then I pull on the other end until it meets where the first one stops.
    Happy sewing, everyone!

    I love this so much! I am the proud owner of a beautiful vintage and/or handmade apron collection and now I'm going to make a ton of my own! Lol. I have a feeling that everyone that I know will be gifted handmade aprons this year. Lol.

    I absolutely love this video! Everything from the music, to the cinematography, to the pattern of the fabric you used, its all so beautiful! Thank you for creating such a work of art! It was the perfect thing to watch cuddled up under a blanket on this rainy Sunday. ♥️

  • @qienna6677

    Thank you so much for explaining the crossover straps! I've always wanted an apron where the straps cross over at the back but I've never actually known how to do it. Mum has promised me we'll make me a cute apron once her sewing stuff is set up (she recently moved house). I'd do it by myself...but the last time I touched a sewing machine it was 20 years ago in school and I was distinctly in the not-gifted student category :(

  • @tarasantillo2095
    @tarasantillo2095 3 роки тому +1

    So cute. If you do two rows of gathering stitches the gathers behave a little better That's what my grandma drilled into me when we made skirts.

    • @SageLilleyman

      It's heaps of fun and great experience making your own apron! And each time you wear it, you appreciate it more because you made it yourself!

    I have two vintage aprons: one I found at an antique store and the other was handmade by my grandmother. It's very lightweight, almost handkerchief material. Thanks for the tutorial.

    @fraeuleinpusteplume2730 3 роки тому +3

    Oh wow! The idea with the loops in the waist is amazing! I will do that on my next apron. So smart. I always had to button the shoulder steaps to the waist

    • @SageLilleyman
      @SageLilleyman  3 роки тому +1

      Glad it was helpful! I know it makes it so easy to do up each time you wear it! :)

  • @claremiller9979
    @claremiller9979 3 роки тому

    I did it! I made not one but two very cute aprons, using an old black tablecloth with scalloped edges (very handy for making a fancy bottom edge with zero effort, lol).
    I made them during the latest Melb lockdown for my daughter and I, as a little project while she was home schooling. She said it was boring because she's 6 and I couldn't let her use the sewing machine, but she's very pleased with the end result.
    She also thinks you're very pretty, Sage, and clever at making things.
    Thanks for this tutorial, it was like riding a bicycle as I haven't sewn with a machine since high school, but I remembered a lot along the way (particularly how bad I am at sewing a waistband!)
    Might try my hand at pants next, from your other tutorial :)

    • @SageLilleyman
      @SageLilleyman  3 роки тому

      Aww your message made me smile!! That is so lovely to hear you made two cute aprons, yayy!! I hope you both get lots of wear out of them and good luck with all your future sewing endeavours! Sending love to you and your daughter xxx

    I suggest always making at least two gathering lines, and three makes it even less likely that you'll accidentally catch something you didn't want to sew. Then one you've sewn it all, just remove the third row of gathering.

    Really Enjoyed watching U design & create/make this Apron!!! It's Cute, although I think I prefer the two (pink & blue) that U showed at the beginning of your video... This was Great, as I recently bought several cheap Aprons & several Vintage Apron patterns, in order to create Vintage Style Aprons out of very plain, no frills, modern things... I love the Ruffles!!! As, sadly, I haven't a body form /mannequin to put the Apron on, your trying on the Aprons helped me decide how I'd like mine to look. I haven't done any sewing in quite a few years, so this is "dipping my toes in the water" to see whether it'll get me back to it, or whether I'll simply leave the sewing to others & just shop for bargains. Thx again for the Wonderful Video!!! Really Appreciate it!!! ♡♡♡♡
