Hello My Lovelies,
In this video I'm making my dream, magical dress ~ Another Vampire's Wife inspired dress made in a shocking pink baby cord. I've been saving this fabric for over 20 years and could never think of what to do with it. And then along came that dress by The Vampire's Wife and I just knew I had to make another one! I have 3 so far and will happily make more!
I drafted the pattern myself and you can see more of this in another Vampire's Wife Inspired Video here: • DIY VAMPIRE'S WIFE DRE...
If you're looking to get some good sewing equipment, these are my general recommendations. I have been using an industrial machine which was on loan, but is now re-homed and I love my Bernina Activa 140, which is hard to get hold of these days. If you can buy a re conditioned one, they're worth their weight in gold! I also use the Singer listed below. It's a very simple entry level machine but it stitches really well on most fabrics that I've tried and I enjoy using it.

you are amazing! I have little time to sew and have never perfected my skills, so instead, I've watched all the resale sights for years until I found a Susie Cave I could afford : ) But this is amazing, special, and perfectly tailored. And that is the PERFECT fabric

We haven't seen pile fabrics much in class (outside of a stretchy crushed velvet) So it's nice to know about that crawling effect. It totally makes sense.

Twins! Snap. I made a comment on an earlier video that I had been inspired by your 1st Vampire’s Wife dress to try a deep pink cotton velveteen version. I kind of hope you subconsciously had that in mind when you chose your pink cord 💕 My dress has pleated ruffles and a slightly fuller skirt. My slightly shorter & heavier arms meant less pouffle for me. No occasion on which to wear it yet, except home based twirling, & I just love it!
