Hello everyone!
Something a little different today - I have been filming the process of making historically accurate Women’s Land Army jodhpurs!
For more information about the Women’s Land Army organisations of World War Two, whether that happens to be the British, Australian, or American branches, please visit the following resources.

Let me know if this is something you would like to see more of - I will be tackling further historical projects while in lockdown.

Could you link the corduroy you found and the correct wale?

Video deserves more views, I also like how the final product came out accident or not.

Thank you! That’s so sweet of you. It’s a pretty niche project so I’m glad that anyone watches it at all 😅 I’m super proud of those trousers and am considering making a similar pair (with perhaps a less dramatic silhouette) for everyday use. ❤️❤️

I don't wear pants, so I have no real reason to be watching this but it is still so interesting ☺️

Corsetra's pattern is not coming up anymore. All of her images on the blog are from Photobucket and they are coming up not available.

Hi Evette! I have just checked them and they are still accessible for me - would you like me to DM you the images? As I mention in my video, I used her pattern as a launching point and kind of eyeballed the measurements, then made a mockup from calico to ensure they would fit. I have added the link to the direct post, hopefully the images will work for you from here! corsetradesigns.blogspot.com/2012/10/womens-land-army-breeches-free-pattern.html#more

I wanted to watch this but omg turn off the background music while you are talking! I immediately started getting a headache from trying to sort out two different tracks of people talking. Not to mention, all the weird laughing on the music track made it extra distracting.

Thanks for your input! As you can see, this is one of my very first videos I ever made. I have been considering remaking this costuming piece as I have learned a lot since I made these, not to mention what I have learned about video editing. I hope you find the right content to serve your needs though. :)
