Just taking a moment to appreciate the sewing assistants. Such lovely cats

I couldn't believe the cat was so well-behaved! Most cats would be getting in the way trying to grab the materials and thread.

Agreed. It's important to be properly supervised :-)

This project is just completely next level. The lace and beads and fabric are so beautiful and match the original so well, too! Can't wait to see them all together! ❤

I have beaded several wedding gowns, and lace appliques for veils. And while I find it so rewarding, It does require a dedication few are willing to undertake. Kuddos on you.

I agree, I did all the beading on my wedding dress, I was still sewing it an hour before we had to leave for the wedding and because I had lost so much weight Mom had to stitch me into the dress taking it in almost 5inches. I had been ill leading up to the wedding for months, for a while there we thought we would have to postpone the wedding but me Dr gave me something to get through the week leading up to the wedding. I am so looking forward to seeing the finished dress.🤗🤗

I do beadwork (bead embroidery to be specific) professionally for more than 30 years. Yes it takes time. There are great shortcuts to use when doing this kind of simple bead embroidery. The correct thread and the correct bead are absolutely the first steps to making a lasting garment. Not all beads can be washed or dry cleaned.

Trying not to drool at all the lace. I know where I'm shopping now! Online is also the only option available to me at the moment, so thank you for the recommendation! 😍

The lace place looks amazing! All that lace in a single place. Also I would totally be running my fingers through all those loose buttons 😂

Those are orthodox icons.... in a sewing video... wow! How beautiful! Your friends sound so wonderful and interesting!

It really is! It is such a joy when you discover this kind of thing!

Those antique clothes were just lovely, thanks for sharing them with us!

The saddest business loss of 2020 for me was the bead shop in the small town nearby. It was a very popular hobby for my grandmother/ her friends and I learned how to make quite a few things there with her. The owner was eccentric but lovely to be around. Now all we have is Walmart and hobby lobby. Or I can drive an hour and a half to civilization. We do still at least have the local quilt shop for cottons but their hours are limited these days. 😭

It is so very refreshing to see you taking the time to sew this gorgeous dress so lovingly and enjoying the process! Lately, it seems like a lot of online sewists are obsessed with how many projects they can complete in a short period of time.

Zinck’s is so great for when you need some cheap fabric to repair or alter theatre costumes that are a few decades old and starting to show their age, haha. And I ador The Lace Place! I’m so glad you loved it. And thanks for the ice cream recommendation! I’ll have to check it out.

I love that you included the grave hopping. I do our family ancestry and always took my kids with me. I would give a dollar for every found grave stone. The we always got a treat after we finished. Antiquing was always a fun in between stop for us.

Your friends seem like very cool, complex people. I would expect nothing less from you. --- Was watching this in the same room as my mom, and she wanted me to tell you that she really enjoyed the music you chose. --- I was having a great time watching up all that taxidermy. Oh My God! That gave me palpitations for a second. I'm terrified of that stuff. I can handle it in this video, but in person I just hate anything that fits into the "Looks like it's Alive/Real but Isn't" category...taxidermy, wax figures...dead humans at open-casket funerals...NOPE! LOL! That lion clip was a total jumpscare.

Clicked so fast! Also wanted to add that your video have helped me. Unfortunately this week I wrongly cut some expensive fabric and had to buy more wich wasn't very nice since this mistake has moved my whole planning of of about a week. But then I remember your video and your price breakdown and tol myself that it's okay to make mistakes and to rebuy if necessary. So thank u for your work and the amount of detail you put in your videos, sometimes we just see the pretty side of projects and not the tries, fails and the amount of time and money that goes behind creating your garments or costumes.

Holy hell! My thoughts as well. I think you hit the lace jackpot in that wonderful shop. I am loving this project; it's amazing to watch each step it takes to create such a beautiful garment. Have a wonderful weekend, xoxo's Sandie

Kevin is a golden human being; I was a Black Sheep kid. Fun to hear it brought up in a video! We must live pretty close to each other.

Small world 😄

That is such a complex project. I mean, most of you costumer type's projects are, but as a very beginning sewer I'm just amazed.

Loved watching this - and I've been watching literally seconds at a time, as I edit my own video (my laptop just isn't up to the task so needs plenty of breaks and coaxing - watching something while I wait for inevitable "Not Responding" messages helps keep me from throwing the machine out the window). Loving the footage of the antique shops, and the piano piece behind it... I loved it because you can tell the player has both pedals down. You just... Hear the mechanism inside the upright piano and... Idk I found it fascinating, and mesmerising!

After seeing your video and on your approval and satisfaction, i went to The Lace Place website. Her lace is truly lovely and beautiful. I was very pleased with my shipment when it arrived. She has a very nice selection of cotton lace and trim. Which is my favorite type of lace. Thank you so much for the recommendation. Can't wait to see your next installment.

Making note of the lace place because I live in Ohio and only have joann's around here. I could aways do a road trip or use the online store that you showed us. Thanks

Not me *immediately* pulling up the Lace Place website, nope.

I enjoyed very much watching your trip and seeing the places you visited, the lace and bead shops look amazing xx

Thank you for taking us on your journey, can't wait to see your lovely dress finished. Best wishes from the UK.

Can't wait to see the next one! I LOVE this dress in that movie.

So many beautiful details…

Bead Works is such a cute shop in Lancaster! I used to live not too far from there, and while I haven't been in that shop many times, they have such great items

Your assistant is great: attentive, and always there in case you need help. 10/10 (and also lovely, but that's just extra)

Oooh, the Lace Place sounds amazing.

Hello Mariah, please take a bit of warning about the plastic pearls you are using on this dress. Not all pearls can make it through the dry cleaning solution. They melt down to a puddle and stick to your fabric. Please take a few of the pearls down to your local dry cleaner and have them TEST the solution on the pearls. they have a bottle of it under the counter and a rag they will dab onto a questionable fabric to test color fastness. But this can also test the plastic. I have them test the antique clothing I have them clean for me. Over the years of doing restoration work. . .you learn that paste, plastic and any embellishment that is NOT glass or metal needs to be treated with caution. You are doing a fine job of working slowly and with purpose on this gown. It is going to look lovely. You should be proud.

Your patience to make it 🤯

what a gorgeous cat/sewing companion!

I loved this video! Thanks for taking us along. 😄❤️❤️

I've always enjoyed your style of content but it seemed you have found a comfortable groove. I'm really enjoying this series! Well done this gown is coming together nicely.

Oh my goodness those stores! Lucky you! We don't have stuff like that in Australia so I feel your excitement 😯 Also the screaming lion store... I had to pause for a laugh break 😂

Oh what a lovely video. Looks like you had a great time in your visit. The lace shop looks amazing! I will have to check them out on line! Thanks for the recommendation

Looking forward to installments of this saga like it’s the hot new HBO show. The trip seemed lovely, so many cool shops!

Watching this series after finding out it was your wedding dress makes a lot of sense and makes it even more exciting!

I think you have found some great approximations, especially given how long ago the dress was made and how fast manufacturing moves these days. I also have boot envy, anything like that would be at least $1200 over here.

❤WHAT AN AWESOME TRIP❤

Your friend's antique shop could be a wonderful Collab video

It’s always a treat to the heart to spend time with friends. Those antiques were gorgeous!

This project is really amazing!

*drooooooooooooool* look at the laaaaaaaaaace. Ah! I know where I need to shop online now. 😭 I'm so jelly. I live in a pretty big town, but it was founded in the 50s onwards, and all we have is Hobby Lobby and Joans for miles and miles. The beading looks awesome, btw. Your friends house is mega awesome as well.

I’m so jealous all that lace in one place yummy, right now I am learning to make my own lace and so far I’m enjoying it. You reminded of me when I was beading all the lace for my vintage designed wedding dress😹 I am so looking forward to seeing the finished dress🤗🤗🤗🤗 It would be great if there was a link to the lace place, I’m always on the lookout for lace made from either cotton, linen or extra fine wool.

Loving this!!

I've SOOOO enjoyed watching my favorite dress come to life through your series. I'm so excited to see it all finished. I hope you had a magical holiday break and that we all get to see the finished dress soon.

I'm so excited to watch this series - this is one of my favourite movie dresses of all time, and you're doing such a great job😱😭

The screaming lions 😂😂

This makes me so happy! I feel compelled to point out that there *is* a small bead store if you ever feel in need of some in-person bead gratification. No lace though. Thank-you for sharing that source! I may just become a regular customer as well.

i just moved from Philadelphia to dover pa (near lancaster more or less) and one thing i miss is the *garment* fabric selection. that said if you want quilting fabrics? this is the place

12:03 Wow! That's a lot of taxidermies.

This is really pretty. I wonder how you bead the trim before you know what lengths to cut. Do you do knots after each scallop or do you partly resew the beads when you cut the trim?

Where are you Mariah, two months I have not seen you? I hope you are OK.

This is such a fantastic project, I’m enjoying to process. One request: can we please have less music over the talking bits? As a hearing impaired person, there is too much to process. Thanks!

We need more world building content😭😭😭

Would like to c more of ur worldbuilding. Maybe even talk about how magic is over there, and different types.

It is beautiful, but the read part was way to fast for me, it made me feel rushed. I think, I can relate with the spoken thoughts speed only. Sorry.

May I copy your project? I really want to make a KZread channel for my art stuff, and I ALWAYS wanted to make this dress. I think it would be a great debut video. I will for sure link all your videos and give you the credit. Can I?

I can't speak for her, obv. But I do know she's very big on info being free for all. Noy exactly sure what you meant, but if you're sewing the dress it would definitely be fine. It's not like she owns it, lol. But I'm not sure about drawing/paint etc. It would probably be okay as, again, it's not her dress, you can draw it as much as you like.

Yeah IMO anybody can make anything. It’s not like I designed the dress.

My "sewing assistant" is no where near as nicely behaved. I'll be sitting there doing some hand stitching & it'll rip outta my hands. Then I gotta smack the cat or chase her down to get it back. If I notice her coming over I tell her off & the looks she gives me🤣 Her name is Nibs short for nibble cause she's a biter😅

I made a writing system for you, just reply and I will share my discord. I really worked hard on it

You can't be very unique. You can only be unique.

I suppose it may be inevitable that you buy something from Hobby Lobby, but bleh.

Very disappointing you shop at Hobby Lobby, don’t you know what a horrible company they are? 👀

Normally I enjoy your videos, but I found the sight of that taxidermy store very upsetting. Such gratuitous cruelty of endangered animals has no place in a sewing video.

Absolutely the top video of today! Grow your online following - *Promosm* !!!
