Yup! And I'm NEVER going to be sewing a Regency - or any other type of - gown, since I mainly sew for myself. (I'm probably not confident enough in my fragile masculinity to pull off wearing a dress.) Also, my current project scares me, so any excuse to procrastinate...

What a lovely gown! I also love that various ribbons can be used to make a difference to the look - for me it brought such resonance to the novels where the characters are buying ribbons and lace and retrimming this or that garment 😊

It's so beautiful and looks so lovely on you - that train is absolutely spectacular and the fabric is gorgeous! I loved seeing you do the fitting/the way you walked us through it. (Doing the seams inside out is so clever! I definitely need to remember that.) And seeing you mark the back like that is just... I feel that in my soul. The eternal struggle.

This is lovely! I'm super interested to see how you handle bustling the train, though. One of my Regency reenactor friends said that they would draw up their trains by stuffing a bit of it into the back closure slit of the dress. All my Regency dresses I've made do have back closures, so that would work in my case. Only two of my dresses have a train. The first one, I used a wrist strap to handle the train but I think this is more of a modern convention. The second one, I used the concept of drawing it up into the back opening, since all my dresses close with just two ties at the back. I sewed a hook just hidden inside the back closure, and then stitched a loop down the back of the dress so that if I put the loop on the hook, the train would be drawn up to only floor length. That said, I have no idea how one would deal with a train on a dress without a back closure if one isn't using a wrist strap. I'll definitely look forward to more of your Regency videos!

This video appeared in my feed just in time for me to finish with school today. Monday is so hard to get motivated to do school. Especially when the 7 yr old wants to sit there and give you the stink eye because he didn't want to stop what he was doing. Nice surprise for then end of a frustrating school day.

Lovely workmanship and fitting, as usual! Can't wait for the next video! And thanks for the tips on making sleeves that you can move your arms in, I tend to join in Bernadette's existential screaming most times when I do sleeves... I noticed something about this dress right at the end though, that reminded me of a problem I had with in my wedding dress, I had them put a liner into the upper arm sleeves because the fabric over my upper arms was unlined like the rest of the dress was, and the fabric was so sheer I looked like I had pink arms, which looked even weirder because the swoopy sleeve parts that started at the elbow were two layers thick so that looked ivory again. I'm really REALLY glad I had them do it because I got a horrendous bruise on my upper arm at my bachelorette party (poledancing lesson!) a week before the wedding and it would have shown right through! Is pink arms a problem, something you don't care about as much as I did, or is it going to be covered by other accoutrements in the next video? (sorry if I'm jumping ahead!) Thanks!

Ok, sorry if this is a dum-dum question, but how do you know how wide your cartridge pleats will become? Like how do you know the length you need to cut so you have enough / not too much for the pleats to fit to your bodice for example?
