TBH - I love chaotic sewists that show that they are consciously making their life more complicated. I feel like it shows risks can pay off, but if someone is inspired - it gives the viewer permission to simplify things. Lowers the barrier to entry.

The overskirt was worth the pain, It adds that note of whimsy and the horn too. The amount of work you put into this outfit is mind-boggoling! Thank you for sharing and creating your outfits.

I absolutely love the dark unicorn vibe! That dress is gorgeous. I’m unfamiliar with the 17th century compared to 18th and Victorian. I really love this whole ensemble.

Thank you so much!! The 17th century is great. Definitely not as much information out there as the 18th/19th, but it's only a matter of time and exposure 😁

1: Sparkly bedazzled gold trim = gorgeous. 2: It may have fought you at every turn, but the dyed overskirt was so pretty! It had an almost iridescent-multichrome kind of effect in the end result, which is perfect for a unicorn look. 3: A+ Charlie the Unicorn reference at the end 😉

I stayed in Fort Worth but drove to Sulphur Springs for the eclipse. This was an incredibly amazing eclipse as it had a very long totality and the sun was at solar maximum. Probably the best one you will ever or could ever see!

We had clouds all day and there was a real fear that we wouldn't see it at all. My friend was trying to convince me to drive to the border 😬 In the end, though, skies were clear until totality, which was great! (Then the sun disappeared and we never saw it again lol)

oh my Goddess. this is amazing! can confirm that your embroidery dramatisation is exactly how it looks and works in real life😢 😂that's a true sign of friendship, especially since the f*** you wasn't directed at you😂😂 Entendre, you say🤔. I love a good entendre, if it's a double, so much the better😂😂 definitely need a video dedicated to that dye technique! I've done a lot of dying in my time (wow, that sounded bad), but I've never done this before. I love your hair in the reveal! it's really good style.

More stones. More SPARKLE! So shiny and BLINGY (it's a word - the spellcheck didn't flag it). I so need some of that teal/blue for a thing I need in my wardrobe. Not sure what that thing is, but I need it.

LOL! Blingy is totally word! 🤣 And you should totally get some. The camera just does not do it justice, it's so luminous IRL. They're both shot silks--the teal is shot with black, the blue with purple. And I'm pretty sure B&T just restocked them both!

I was left breathless! It is **stunning** !

@@FantasticalFolliesCostuming My favourite (self imposed punishment) is mixing cosplay plans and historical eras. It's a curse but so amazing. Spend almost a year on a 1550ish Witcher inspired look (still not done with all pieces). And I've tip toed around the 17th century for ages even though I have two big plans and ideas that I REALLY want to create in a mid 17th century style. Soe your videos aren't just amazing but very helpful (and enabling ^^) Thank you so much for sharing and also being so honest in trouble shooting!

Oh, your baroque gown is superb! If you had been at the court of Charles ll. you would have had a hard time keeping the fops away from you. Love the color, the little pearls, the embroidery on the bodice, the peek-a-boo sleeve that shows a bit of your smock and your fab 17th century ringlets. And yes, do a pattern for the underskirt - I would love to have that! If you hadn't mentioned the trouble you had with the dyes, I would never have noticed because it actually looks great.

I know it took a long time but it really is gorgeous. I may have to look at doing something similar for a banquet gown. It's a bit late in the century for the society I'm part of but I could make it work. You brought back a very happy memory for me. Me and two friends (one of whom is no longer with us) getting together over a weekend to do some work on 17th-century stuff. I think we went through about 14 bottles of wine between us over the 3 days. Crafting with like minded friends is fun, which is what your channel feels like. 😂😂🩵🦄🍾🥂
