Hey lingerie designer here 🙋🏻‍♀️ you absolutely can use t shirt cotton material for underwear as long as it has a good lining/decent fabric for the gusset material if you line the entire pant then there’s no need for the extra gusset either :) you did so well recreating the pants, lingerie is NOT an easy hobby to get into making so well done you! 🖤

@@Zharoze hey! So started with a soft cup bra without fastenings could be good kinda like a crop top? Or even just a basic bodysuit/swimsuit so you can get to grips with stretch material and working with elastics too!

She's so accepting of other things to it makes me so happy :)

For anyone who wants to copy their clothes, I would recommend a more precise method: don't just lay it on the fabric and cut around. Lay it on a piece of paper (sewing pattern paper, or any wrapping paper), draw around it and then clean up the lines (make straight what should be straight, smooth out the curves). If it's meant to be symmetric, like panties, tank top, t-shirt), make it symmetric - fold the paper in half and correct any asymmetries. Not only will you get a cleaner pattern, but also a pattern you can reuse, or use as a base to draft your new, experimental patterns :)

I think it's funny Mia sharing how long it took her because when I sew it takes a million times longer. I'm a perfectionist so, I can't imagine me doing it like that. It's great to see though that it still turns out great! What I do is: wash the fabric first, iron it, carefully trace your garment onto pattern paper and cut it out, carefully trace pattern onto fabric with seam allowance and cut it out and then finally pin and sew.

Tip for fluffy fabric: my mom made for my grandma fluffy pants from the fluffy blanket. She literally bought blanket big enough for king size bed that was fluffy on both sides and made them. Even the blanket wasn't too expensive (like 15€ maybe) and she made 3 pairs of pants. Later I've seen similar pants for the price 15-20€ per pair

You've got this!

mia i have an idea- you should make a series that's like "make, thrift, or buy?" (or something like that) where you basically take either a super popular clothing piece like the skims dress or just any item in general and then see whether it's more worth it to buy, make, or thrift. you could buy the piece, try to make it, and then also try to thrift it!

Just wanted to come on here and give a little update on the sewing machine giveaway.. I was REALLY hoping to have it all sorted out in time for this video.. but unfortunately there was a last minute snag 🥲 I promise that giveaway will be coming so soon, we already have a sewing machine company willing and lined up to take part in it, now it’s just handling the legal end of the giveaway! Please stay tuned that should be live before the end of May 🤞🏻🤞🏻I love seeing your comments expressing an interest in sewing.. I’ve had so much fun on my sewing journey and I can’t wait for you to have the opportunity to get your hands on a brand new machine and start your sewing journey! But alas it’ll just be a little bit longer.. thank you for your patience and I love you ALL 💖🫶🏻💖

Mia has gotten so good at sewing, I am so proud .. I just remember her first getting into it and how far she’s come.. as a newbie in the sewing field I know how hard it can be to learn and she’s been an inspiration 🌺

The price difference is incredible and like huge props to you for finding out roughly how much it would cost for a bigger person to do this its so cool that you are so inclusive and always find a way to make everyone feel welcomed and appreciated no matter what!

As a 3X lady, the fact you took that bit of effort to figure out the plus size comparison, and acknowledge that it’d be different but still cheaper. That is so sweet of you.

As someone who has sewn for YEARS, girl...this is AMAZING! Some people are afraid of sewing, but it's really fun and cost effective. Thanks for showing everyone that they can do it too.

The fact that only 3 years ago, Mia made a cloud pillow, that was, Ngl awful 😂😂. Seeing this is so insane how good she got, I’m so proud of her! These products look so nice, if you put them side by side, I would totally think hers was the original. Love it!

As someone who is plus sized, I am so impressed that you listed the price for making a 4x too!

You should make skim pieces for your mom and prank her saying they’re from skims and see what she thinks!! That’d be so fun to watch!

Pro Tip!!! Use a zig zag stitch when sewing stretchy fabrics! It’s allows the fabric to stretch and move without as much risk of the stitches ripping/coming undone. Love that you are getting into sewing, Mia!

Mia genuinely gives me the confidence to think I can sew and do renovations

I’m really so inpressad with how much you have improved as a seamstress and your fearlessness. I work as a pattern maker and has previously worked as a seamstress and I am so impressed how you just take clothes and trace them and it actually looks good. I think my mindset is a little bit more strict from my formal education but it is so much fun watching your videos! Your passion really shines through. Good job! Please never stop doing videos like this!

hi, Mia! the way you switched to the more sustainable AND affordable lifestyle impresses me the most, hope other bloggers get inspired to follow your steps

Mia should prank her mom again by reviewing clothes that were actually sewn by Mia... her skills have improved so much i can bet Mama Maples cannot tell the difference!

Thank you so much for including us plus size people, we really appreciate it!

I had no interest in sewing clothes, but you were so confident and encouraging I COULD make that bodycon dress that I now want to try it. :'D The power of your positivity is over 9000

Mia's editing has been peaking for a while now and I'm enjoying the look of the videos soooo much. Our girl always improving in all fronts 👏👏

This series reminds me a lot of the Make Thrift Buy series Annika Victoria used to make where she would compare different options for getting a clothing/accessory piece. I love it!

Id love to see you do like fabletics or some well known athletic brand workout clothes. The price are always out of my budget and they are always something Id like to try but I’m intimidated. I feel like if you could do it so could I. ❤️ Also THANK YOU for doing the plus size calculations! I know that as a plus size girl I can appreciate the conversion. Nobody ever seems to care or think about how conversions can affect pricing for us.

LOVE LOVE LOVE that Mia considered the price for us plus size Queens. So thoughtful and realising that we all have different fabric metre needs!

Mia is such a beautiful person, I love how she included how much it would cost for plus sizes acknowledging that her size is obviously cheaper.

Mia you are just a Jack of all trades, you go girl‼️🫶🏼

I love how Mia is so considerate, she gives us all the little details that take so much work! she is the best!. love u from Israel !

Mias just too good from sewing to reviewing she just has everything showering us with amazing videos she just seems like such a kind and outgoing person love her ❤

My favorite part is seeing Mia’s different styling choices for the pieces

MIA!!! Please do more ASMR videos. You were such a natural. Literally, if you were to make a separate channel dedicated to ASMR, I bet it'd be such a hit.

I love that your pieces are cuter than the originals and less expensive even when taking your own time into account! So inspiring. I’d LOVE to see more videos like this! ✨

I have to say, I LOVE how amazing everything you make turns out. You encourage me everyday to try and make something new and step out of my comfort zone. From glueing your clothes to sewing amazing pieces. Now, when it comes to comparing prices... On one hand Skims probably pay cheaper for fabric from buying in bulk, on the other hand when making it yourself you're not calculating paying for the design nor anything else that comes with marketing, website costs, employees, etc. But I think it's neat to know for how much you would be able to make the piece yourself.

Mia i lost my momma 5 months ago to cancer on my daughters one month of being born seeing your vidoes with your mom makes me so happy to watch and brings back my own memories! your videos are a reminder never overlook your momma shes not here forever.. Love you and momma maples

I love everything about this! When I saw that you were adding the wage in it I thought “well if you want for self it’s the same to add it or not because the money saved is for yourself” but then taking in consideration that it is a brand that not only pays for fabric and thread, I do kinda understand prices now that I have a business myself. You do not only pay for fabric, wage and thread, but tags, a place to make them (like an office or ware house or factory idk) plus all the equipment, furniture, light, etc. also they pay to have a website on, packaging and some of them include a bit of the price of shipping. I understand the concept of the video and love it and agree that if you can’t afford something you can diy, I just think we have to consider all I said above before going on saying that something is increible expensive if we don’t actually know all that comes into it even if it’s a billionaire who’s making it

I really love those sewing recreation videos! and all the details and the breakdown and the semi tutorials, I adore it, thank you Mia

You should do more sewing videos! I have a cool idea for you. You could make a jar that includes different styles and vibes of clothing, pick one out like once a month, (or however so often), and make an outfit of it! You could even do giveaways if you wanted. I just started sewing and it’s so cool to watch someone else do it. I feel like I learn so much! And especially it being one of my fav KZreadrs? So cool. Love you Mia and all that you do

I’ve always thought skims was way too expensive for the price haha! Love this series!

i'm loving this series! I'd love to see you recreate some pieces from Reformation, I love their style but the prices are quite high for me!

You rocked these, Mia!

Yessss I'm loving these recreation video's and it's so great you're including the information your fans want. Hourly wage, plus sizes of fabric, all of it, even if its not applicable to you. Its so great! Thanks Mia, keep inspiring people! ❤

I can't believe how far your sewing skills have come! Every single one of these pieces look amazing!

LOVE YOU MIA! THE WORLD NEEDS MORE PEOPLE LIKE YOU

Sewing is not a talent it is a skill that ANYONE can learn. Well done!!!

From watching Mia do clothing hauls to now sewing clothes herself and walking us through all she’s learned… we love to see it🤩🫶🏼

This girl can have her own shop, she is talented Please blow this up so she can see this cmon let’s all agree that she could make millions on her beautiful work.

Your videos just recently popped into my home feed (like two or three days ago), and I subbed immediately. I love your style, your variety, your editing, your creativity, etc.

I used to watch my grandma sewing, one day i asked her if we could sew the skirt . WE DID. I was 13 probably. She died couple of years later and now i dont have anyone to sew with😢 im holding on that skirt with life❤️

All the pieces came out so great! Would be interesting to see if you could do swimwear at home that isn't see through, maybe like the skims one or like the Kylie ones but with more layers of fabric or more fabric in general

Omg!!!! Standing ovation for Mia!!!! Mia you are so creative, intelligent, hard working, talented woman. You are such an inspiration. Sending lots of love from Austin Texas 💗. Thank you for another amazing extraordinary video 📹 💞💗💖💕💖💕💖💕💖💞💞💗💗

MIA I love u!!! This is such a cool idea. Please keep doing these ❤

This is amazing, Mia!! Love that you just go for it in your sewing ☺️ If you want a tip (or not-sorry♥️), to easier trase a T-shirt or sweater, just trace one side and fold that side over so it matches up perfectly! Not that you didn’t do a good enough job, you really did! Just thought it would be helpful for another time ☺️

Thank you for also including plus size pricing! We love an inclusive thoughtful gal 💕

For these types of videos I think going to the fabric store is a better choice. Just for keeping things... like, the same? What I mean is not everyone has a thrift store near them with fabrics. All the ones near me don't supply it. But I feel like everyone is able to find a fabric store relatively easy.

I love watching you sew things and seeing the results. You’ve come so far and have gotten really good 👏🏻

Awe! I just broke my first sewing machine needle a few days ago too. Doesn’t it kind of feel like a rite of passage? This video was so helpful and inspiring. As a single mom who can’t justify spending $$$ for SKIMS, this was the video I never knew I needed. Thank you 🥰

I love this! My suggestions for a future video are either Lululemon or Free People 😍 I've actually done my version of a FP pullover puffer as I couldn't get myself to spend that much on one. Found some fabric in the charity shop and made 2, one for me and one for a friend of mine.

I enjoy watching Mia grow so much. Her videos feel so comforting and encouraging. Keep up the good work!

I love these videos! It’s amazing to see how your sewing ability has improved over the years I’ve been watching you. ❤

I absolutely love your videos like this. You're making me feel brave enough to try stretchy stuff. I've got 30 years of sewing under my belt and I've always hated stretch fabric but now I figured it out

Please do more of these videos if you can!!! Also I know it’s a lot to ask but if you could go slightly more depth about how you’re sewing the pieces so we can follow along at home I would be eternally grateful! Love you Mia❤ EDIT: PLEASE do an in depth video on making pants bc it’s so confusing to match how the leg pieces are supposed to go together and where you need to sew them

Watching this video while sewing : it's just perfect !!! You're making sewing so simple and accessible to everyone, and i really like this approach. I LOVE YOUR SEWING VIDEOS, thanks for doing that :)

It was interesting to see adding the wage. Though to me it doesn't make sense to go for minimum wage since it is a skilled job. So yes I understand the trouble with adding it to the price. Just giving information how long it takes already helps.

Agreed that this is skilled labor and it’s not just the base wage, but also benefits and payroll taxes, that are included to have a true comparison of costs for any responsible manufacturing company.

@discol4549

Жыл бұрын

Agreed! The whole purpose of adding the wage etc is so that when you are looking at a price in the store you’re considering that it’s not just the cost of the materials that make up the sales price. It’s someone’s livelihood, marketing, and business costs as well. That being said- I’m all for making it myself for much less if I can, so I understand where Mia might wonder about including the other costs for retail purchase when she wasn’t making it to sell.

Love this, but I LITERALLY can't sow 😢

MORE!!! Its so fun to watch!❤

Oh my gosh this video literally was exactly what I needed today! Mia was so considerate for subtitles on the video; that makes watching the videos so much easier for me as a hearing impaired person!❤ and all the clothes were so adorable✨💕:)))

Hey Mia, adding the cost of the hourly wage is to make your estimated costs more accurately equivalent to Skims. Sewing *is* a fun hobby for you, but when Skims prices their items, one of the factors is the wages they must pay for the workers who make their clothes. It's kind of nit-picky when you're just doing it for fun, but on the other end of the spectrum, people who make clothes as their livelihood have their skills and services undervalued when the idea is perpetuated that it should ONLY cost what materials you use. I know you yourself are not saying that, but people look at sewing videos and expect tailors and seamstresses to work for less because they see this idea on social media.

To add to that, the hourly wage for sewing is, and should always be paid at, higher than minimum wage! Minimum wage jobs are for unskilled labor, work that you can literally show up with no experience and still do a decent job, and sewing is definitely a skill that needs experience to learn and do well, as demonstrated by Mia herself.
