Join me as I create a civil war era 'working women's' petticoat. I go over how to do a flat fell seem, a whip stitch and just a plain how I made the whole thing! I hope you learn something new and get inspired from my first tutorial!

I just stumbled upon your channel! I too am a girl of a different era. Your style is so beautiful and quaint, I think clothes from the 1800s are absolutely amazing! I believe my soul belongs in the 1950s, so I've been trying to make clothes from that era. ❤️

Nice!! I've made several petticoats out of bedsheets. It turned out so well!

They are handy (and a lot cheaper) I was amazed how much fabric goes into a petticoat. Thank you!!!, I was glad that the vertical stripes of the skirt didn't clash with the horizontal stripes of the ruffle!

What tutorial did you use?

So great to have found you! I've been interested in historical sewing for over a year now, but although the usual channels in the area are quite great regarding the sewing, I clearly have a preference when I find a fellow Christian, because I think the love for our Lord unites us in a different manner...I hope your channel will grow, because you clearly deserve it (sorry for any language mistake, I'm swiss). God bless you!

I've actually made a petticoat out of a Queen sized bed ruffle that a friend gave me. It had pin tucks and insertion lace.. When I saw it, I said petticoat...!! 😁

I like your attitude! You seem like a sweet person to be around. Why do you steam iron on a wood surface? Won't that harm the wood over time?

How can you iron on that wooden table? Is it stained? Is it just impervious to heat somehow? It seems to be a splendid solution.

@girlofdifferentera2922 2 жыл бұрын

Well, I did that since at the time I didn't have an ironing board, if you put a towel on top it protects the table but, most of the time I just used it bare, if you don't let the iron stay in one place long it seems perfectly fine!
