    These are stunning!!! Add a ton of beads and pearls and they can be a historical beauty when added to a gown. The twist method is what I will use when I manipulate my ribbon for my 18th century Pink Diamond cosplay

    These are great! Thanks Kirilee! They come in the best moment for me, I am preparing for an XVIII century Sailor Neptune, and I had no idea on how to "enrich" the fabric. Time for practice!

    Really enjoying these videos! Quick question: are you planing on making any bodice tutorials? I've been struggling to find patterns I like and have no clue how to properly make armholes.

    I haven’t got that on my radar just at the moment just because bodices can be vastly different depending on what you are trying to achieve. Let me sit on it ;) thanks for the idea.
