16:35 Flashback to a song I learned in childhood about an old coat that the owner cuts down into smaller and smaller pieces of clothing as they wear out. The second-to-last verse goes, "Well, when that patch was next to nothin'/I rolled it up into a button." 😄 Thanks for the memories--and the fun conclusion to a clever project! 😁
The project taking forever is 100% relatable! I started a costume early in 2020 then set it aside when Covid hit and the convention I was making it for got canceled. I finally picked it back up about a month ago with new excitement and inspiration to finish it. I've made far more progress in the last month than I thought possible.
You look so wonderful in the new strawberry dress - you're positively glowing. To misquote Tolkien - a dress is finished exactly when it's supposed to be. It is never late. While I'm not that interested in making a medieval garment, your discussion on making this outfit is getting me one step closer to actually starting my journey into historical clothing.
You’re beating yourself up about the time, but you made an under dress and a detailed overdress in a year, the time it took me to make an unlined 50’s dress with polyester!
In the end, it’s clothing, and clothing should be enjoyable! As a fellow Texan, the three layers is a very short season for sure. Thanks for making me smile today 🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓 it’s a 5 strawberry dress!
You know, I love how you are honest about your Journey. I can do one single thing in a year or even more, due to different reason, and it's ok. What you're doing is okay. We are not making a product, we are making art. If someone can handstitch an entire ensemble in a month and put out a video every week, good for them, but it shouldn't be the norm. Everyone has their own pace. And exciting thing are worth the wait. Also, I personally love when people are "late on the trends", because it stretches out the trend, and we are getting out of microtrend hell one step at a time
There is never a timeline for art. I think the amount of time it takes you is the amount of time it is meant to take. You know, I think this points out the difference in goal, between creating art vs creating a product. Mixing the two requires a good bit of thought and perhaps some compromise. I agree, exciting things are worth the wait!
This reminds me of the Hooplande I made. It was supposed to be a simple gown but it turned into a velvet lined Hooplande with tiny glass beads sewn into the center of each and every little flower. XD
this is SO FUN!!! and those shades of red and pink look just perfect together! and the peak of pink ruffles at the bottom!! and the SPANGLES!!! i think this is my favourite interpretation of the strawberry dress so far!!
when i was little and lived in vermont we grew some strawberries in the garden, they looked like the tiny medieval ones, they were so sweet. the deer + birds + bunnies agreed and stole them lol
I go to the Ren Faire in Georgia every year. I don’t dress up but if I did this would be my costume. It’s so cute and fun. This year I’m making my nine year old niece the costume Kirsten Stewart wore in “Snow White and the Huntsman” and a renaissance princess costume for my friend’s seven year old granddaughter.
I have wild strawberries in my back garden in England. I think the lady in the manuscript picture wanted to be a strawberry,too! I have the textile book :-). Unless you are making a replica, or telling people that what you are making is historically accurate, how you sew it is up to you.(my rule for me!) that dress is delicious!
I actually saw this dress - before I'd ever seen this video! I even took a few photos of it during Stormgods last summer, I was so taken with it! I didnt realize it was you/you were/are Daisy Viktoria, lol. The dress was lovely & I loved the hood! So fun now that I know the origins. If I run into you again, I'll definitely say hello! Thank you for sharing your process! 💗🌸 Gillian
I love your channel so much. You have such a calming presence and I watch your videos while I work (which includes sewing and other various tedious things lol) and helps keep me going. This dress was absolutely gorgeous, and completing it must have tasted so sweet!
Just as an fyi, those tiny strawberries are often sold as ornamental plants and are labeled as Alpine Strawberries. I sometimes see them at Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods.
Tiny strawberries are the best 🥰. Another name for that garment - vestido (dress in english). Name used from the middle ages until now, medieval men wore dresses too untill the 13th century. Anotger name yet - saio (the masculin word for skirt).
Love it some don’t and can not make things like this dress so we buy things at the fairs so other helping the artist that do create just gorgeous thank u
hi from dallas.... ooooo... this turned out so well... you look amazing in it... i wan to make this but in a different color scheme... thank you for the inspiration... hugs...
Fellow Scadian here, greetings from Aethelmearc up north a bit. My focus is on Tudor but I love looking back at other times to see the evolution of clothing. The allegorical medieval manuscripts are the most fun, the marginalia in them is just perfection. Congratulations on finishing this long project. Even though it took you a while to complete, most things are worth the wait and super satisfying. The sequins really make this pop and give the strawberry feeling, yay crowdsourcing the choice for the silk buttons. Just goes together so well. Will have to check out your main sourcebook.
This is so beautiful! I'm at last trying spiral lacing for the first time (on a sports bra I'm altering, so no one will see it 😅), but I'm excited to use it in a dress one day! Loving the strawberry dress 😍 Also a question about necklines. I would like to be quite active in my clothing, which I see you do as well! Do you ever have problems with the neckline gapping when you bend forward? Or does the fittedness of the garment prevent all that?
If the neckline is low, it can be a risk. But having a well-fitted garment goes a long way! It's always good to remember it looks more revealing from your perspective than it does from without.
We don't live in medieval time, thank goodness. If you would be wearing that outfit then, you would have people working for you doing the boring parts like long seams, so using a sewing machine for that is the same thing. If you don't have servants to do the sewing for you, you wouldn't be wearing that kind of quality outfit and you would probably only have 2 "suits" of clothing at any given time. One of which might be part of your yearly salary if you were one of the servants. So again probably sewn by professional sewers. I remember one lady at Pennsic saying that nylon was the equivalent of a dozen laundry maids. And from my families history we would have been lucky to have been laundry maids.
For sure, I might be dead by now! I love the way you bring all of this into perspective. Many of us would have been lucky to be laundry maids - how different clothing is now!
Rich people often gave their cast-off clothes to the servants (well, probably to their lady's maids, not the scullery maids). And yeah, I probably would've died in childhood (no antibiotics back then).
American comercial strawberries are sadly lacking in flavour though they are marketed out of season to northern Europe purely for their decorative aspect. Strawberries homegrown and eaten in season are a different fruit. I have 4 local wild strawberries varieties and as with all wild fruit they each have twice the flavour of even the best large fruit in season so anyone with only space for a pot in the shade could grow the real thing to eat while wearing their dress .
well, I'm so sorry for correcting you, but modern big strawberrys were a thing in spain in 1500, and as long as I know, spain belongs to europe, so yes, there were big strawberries in europe during the late medieval age, sorry for pointing out, but sometimes in the united states people tend to forget spain is in europe 😂😂😂
Haha, right you are - Spain is indeed in Europe! Thanks so much for adding in the perspective. Perhaps it would be more correct to specify France. Our neighbors are all important! Love the profile pic btw 😍

That is totally understandable. I'm so glad you've found renewed inspiration. Sometimes a project just needs another motivation or perspective!
That dress is berry gorgeous!
OMG You have my heart with this pun! 😂🍓❤

Wild tiny strawberries are very cute and tasty. The dress is very nice
You’re beating yourself up about the time, but you made an under dress and a detailed overdress in a year, the time it took me to make an unlined 50’s dress with polyester!
skirts are peak for frolicking, delightful stuff
In the end, it’s clothing, and clothing should be enjoyable! As a fellow Texan, the three layers is a very short season for sure. Thanks for making me smile today 🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓 it’s a 5 strawberry dress!
Aw thank you! I'm so glad to bring joy, and yay, fellow Texan! Our three layers season is indeed very short.

This is so so beautiful. Your very talented ❤️. I wish I could dress like this every day, I really resonate with this period xx
LOVE THE GOWN...THAT RED WOOL REALLY WORKED TERRIFICALLY. DARKER RED THREAD IF YOU DECIDE TO DO THE SHE-SHA STITCHING.
The braided trim is the perfect trim for this dress! Dress is beautiful! 🍓🍓🍓
That swirl at the end though, chef's kiss
Medieval Strawberry Shortcake! 🍓 🍰🎂This dress is BEAUTIFUL!😍
beautiful dress! i love how it sparkles, the larger sequins really catch the light
This reminds me of the Hooplande I made. It was supposed to be a simple gown but it turned into a velvet lined Hooplande with tiny glass beads sewn into the center of each and every little flower. XD
At 15 minutes, you were describing the "Schweinehund", the inertia, the force you have to overcome
this is SO FUN!!! and those shades of red and pink look just perfect together! and the peak of pink ruffles at the bottom!! and the SPANGLES!!! i think this is my favourite interpretation of the strawberry dress so far!!
when i was little and lived in vermont we grew some strawberries in the garden, they looked like the tiny medieval ones, they were so sweet. the deer + birds + bunnies agreed and stole them lol
That's so awesome! Hah sounds like the critters have good taste!
I have little strawberries all over my lawn in New Hampshire. And my mother’s family was from Malmo.
I'm smiling from ear to ear. What a magical video. Thank you, Strawberry Queen!
I go to the Ren Faire in Georgia every year. I don’t dress up but if I did this would be my costume. It’s so cute and fun.
This year I’m making my nine year old niece the costume Kirsten Stewart wore in “Snow White and the Huntsman” and a renaissance princess costume for my friend’s seven year old granddaughter.
I'm happy you get to be a strawberry!
Thank you berry much!! 🍓

You're such a sweet strawberry 🍓
Marvelous 💞💙

SHE-SHA MIRROR...LOOK IT UP. I'M SURE THERE IS INSTRUCTIONS ONLINE.
THOSE GOLD SHINIES WOULD BE MORE PERIOD IF YOU SEWED AROUND THEM LIKE EASTERN MIRROR WORK.
