Mind blown. What a loss ❤

Thank you Rachel for posting Travis's filmed techniques. Have learn many tips and tricks.

I really learned the fine tuning for the bodice. All need is the pattern after being shown how to do the sewing techniques. Fabulous!

At 1:11 Got it and i don't sew professionally. To me ,the process is not hard once shown.

I appreciate this video. Just made two skirts for Don Quixote following Travis' video and they are terrific. Thank you, Rachel!

Can you post the books that Travis recommended? Also, if you have any recommendations as well!

I'm so glad you leave these up for us!

So helpful! Thank you :)

How do you know how much elastic to add?

Poter indossare un tutù così....

What gem he was❤

This is the BEST way to put on hooks and bars! Mine stay on so long under trying circumstances.

Pool noodles shape well too.

Quisiera saber en español que le pone gracias

What a blessing his videos are to leave behind for those of us who are trying to learn! Thank you!

I'm adoring this video. So sorry to hear that he passed...what a gem. His family and friends (and I'm sure there were TONS) must miss him greatly.

i am about to start my first "PRO" tutu and i feel like he lives through these video's. Travis was a gift to all costumers who need to learn this. thank you from Vancouver BC. Kathy! 😍😇

I'm a bit confused, do we cut on the cross or don't cut on the cross

Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience - your fabulousness continues to inspire me ❤

Lovely doggie

Como eu gostaria de ter esse video em português....

God bless this man. Thank you for talking to us like 5 year olds about the math!

I am making a figure skating costume for the first time and i want to airbrush it. This is exactly the video i needed :)

North Carolina,is where it was made

I am currently waiting for my ruffler to arrive in Canada and I’m so glad I came across this video. I will be sure to follow all of your instructions when I’m ruffling away 😊 Great job on the video and very informative

Just wondering if you have permission to post this and other of Travis’ videos?

This content is just invaluable. Thank you so much for posting it .

Oh how I wish I had found you earlier. ❤

Do your panty patterns work for kids or am I better off drafting my own? Got a hip at 28.5". Have not yet measure girth. I drafted a basque from scratch via these videos for her rehearsal tutu. Now I gotta make the competition tutu and bodice. Thx!!

What an amazing video and from reading the comments I send my condolences a year late. Thank you so much for keeping these videos up.

Just learned that he passed. What a creative genius he was.

Thank you Rachel for sharing these magical lessons with Travis! I had that I am only getting introduced to him after he has left us. He was such a beautiful soul. These videos have saved my sanity. I have never made a ballet costume & am self taught with my sewing skills. I took on the challenge to make my daughter's variation costume for YAGP after our plans to borrow one fell through. Thank you ❤

loved the videos, im a designer in chicago, i didnt see where you showed how the fishing thread is threaded .

This and part 2 were extremely helpful - thank you. I’ve made 2 quick change leotards for baton twirlers now (which come with additional challenges) but both worked brilliantly thanks to the things I learnt here.

Hey Rachel/Travis! Obviously a lot of talent shown here! I know that most quick change is done by women. I’m a (male) corporate trainer who wants an “ice breaker” for my classes. I would love to perform a quick change in a men’s button down shirt, but I can’t find anything online. Would you have any suggestions?

So grateful for these

My Johnson Ruffling Machine is not picking up the bobbin. What could it be that I'm not doing?

I am loving these videos! I appreciate all the effort that went into them and that they were able to be shared. ❤ Do you/anyone know the name of the book being used in this video?

To post what a fabulous video this was so thorough and he was so delightful and his bits of humor and when I came on to post it I heard that he passed away and that made me sad. Rest in peace you wonderful creative gentleman❤

Excellent Instructions. Do you have a video or ideas for the change to a sleeved dress?

How do you attach the overlay skirt to the bodice?

That´s also why you wear a skin colored bra or underwear under a white blouse or pants rather than white undergarments. I have also heard a lingerie expert say that red bra hides even better under white. I’ve never tested that but suppose it only works with paler skin tones with a high degree of pink undertone.

Nice job!

Me encanta el tutorial pero sería mejor si traducen a español para pagar ser entender más

Thank you for posting! Much appreciated!

Lay your doughnut down, Sweet Jesus! (I miss this guy)

thank you!!!
