    🤩 🤩 🤩 Oh my goodness. What glorious skills you have! That dress is GORGEOUS!🤩🤩🤩🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿 But let’s talk about the aesthetically pleasing masterpiece I just watched 😮 Giiiiirl, I don’t even like ASMR videos but THIS video gave me my ENTIRE life! 😵🥰🥰🥰 From your beautiful feathered cuffs, to the pleasant bird chirps, to the satisfying hissing of the iron, you NAILED it! What a glorious addition you are to the vintage sewing community here on UA-cam. I have to subscribe. Thanks for sharing this video, it was glorious to watch on every level ❤❤

    This is nothing short out of absolute majesty. I now know how my great grandmothers saved the old white sheets, dyed them various colors and transformed them into beautiful Sunday and HOLIDAY dresses.

    Tips to keep your iron from leaking are. Never store with water in it. Once water is in it don't lay it horizontal until it's hot and ready for steam. Don't press the steam button until it's hot enough this means when it's re heating too because it will just cause it to leak.
    If your iron has been dropped a lot then replace it.
    I've heard good things about Chi and I have a singer and I have no complaints and it now is available in Pink!

    Yellow was the perfect colour for the dress. You would have looked amazing standing in the shadow of the podium. Well done. All the best for the day.
    Ms. Cindy, you are such a strong visual storyteller. Thank you for all of the work you've put into filming and editing (and the sound editing!). And you're style is impeccable - also in love with your pattern weights... I get the feeling you're about to be requested by a whole bunch of people, myself included, to do a tutorial for your house gown. New subscriber, looking forward to it all. Cheers.

    Wow. I'm not really a fan of ASMR videos but THIS was fantastic. I love sewing and could absolutely watch your sewing videos all day.
    Re: irons. I've spent so much money on irons myself, Black and Decker makes a good one,but my kids or husband were constantly knocking the irons on the floor so they'd end up leaking. The iron I'm using now is a TFal and although it's also been knocked to the floor, so far it's held up and doesn't leak at all. So I can recommend that one.

    • @CindyLeaux
      @CindyLeaux  11 місяців тому

    I've read that Rowenta has lot of good irons with steam, they seem to be on high quality.
    Also I recommend that you hay to press the fabric lightly while you press the steam button, and also make little round movements with the iron to keep the fabric smooth (Idk if I wrote it right sicen English is not my first language but i finished my first year to become a fashion designer) An absolute lovely dress and tutorial!!! Amazing

      @@CindyLeaux I like that it's cordless, and on high steam, you can hold it vertically and get some pretty strong bursts. You're not tethered by the cord, so you can take it from your ironing table to your dress form if you need.

    I am so glad I came across your channel, I’ve been wishing to find more vintage sewing channels that fit more with my prefered aesthetic. I saw a clothing rack full of glamorous things in one of your previous videos which makes me wonder if we’ll get to see some evening wear later on as well.

    I have an Oliso, it holds I think 12 ounces of water and produces a lot of steam. It wasn’t cheap, I think $125, but I have been using it for ten years and it has no problems.

      @@CindyLeaux well, in ten years I would expect some inflation. But if I divide it over ten years it was very inexpensive over the time frame. And I do use it a lot. That said, $250 would cause me more of a pause.😸

      I own an oliso Olso, very good iron, quite expensive do. With time I come to the conclusion that, no matter how expensive an iron is , you can get about the same results. I have own in the past two rowentas very expensive too. I destroyed them both (they started leaking) my fault I was using tap water,. that, will destroy any iron no matter how good or expensive it is. You have to use bottled water that's the secret. My oliso still good because I never put anything else in her other than bottled water.😊 Hope this helps.

    You have a 24.5" waist? :O It would be super cute to embroider something on the collar - your name or initials, maybe? In a dainty chain stitch? I always associate the chain stitch with the 50s-60s. Or flowers or hearts or starbursts or something might be pretty... It's also super cute as is - the simplicity. With a pair of white gloves and black sunglasses, you would have looked like a beam of sunshine at Dr. King's historic march!

    I’m so glad this popped up in my recs, love love the video and your fur coat!! Obsessed. Thank you for taking us through every step, I’m a beginner sewer and don’t really know how to use patterns very well but this was sooo helpful especially for the vintage patterns. would love to know what those heart shaped pins are? I’m assuming they’re magnets or something? Also, is there a reason why you wet the cloth and ironed over the interfaced piece?

    • @CindyLeaux
      @CindyLeaux  11 місяців тому

      Thank you so much! The pins are basic sewing pins but they just have heart-shaped pearls at the ends. I wet the organza bc the directions for the fusible interfacing says to use a damp pressing cloth. I hope you have an amazing time on your sewing journey!! 💕

    • @nothere9295
      @nothere9295 11 місяців тому

      Wow. Of course they’re just heart shaped pins. I’m sure that was obvious to everyone but me 😭😭😭.
      I see, the interfacing I get comes in a sheet my local shop just cuts out. That’s interesting to know and I’m wondering if I would get better results if I did the same. Thank you for the info 😊

      I never had one. The only place I ever used them was at a bridal design company I worked at for a hot minute when I was either fitting for some rich girl whose family knew our owners, or if I was getting dresses ready to ship to trunk shows (I hated that job).
