this looks soooo cosy. like a portable blanket

Juul, you are a muse and an inspiration! amazing project, i am so deeply impressed by how you dove into so many new techniques at once, but what i admire the most is that it seems that your objective in doing so is simply the DOING of it, and not the potato sack wonder that is the final product (lovely and seemingly cosy as it may be). thank you so much for sharing! your channel is a rare gem 💎

Awesome reproduction. And yes, agreed, the Historically Accurate gatekeepers can just cut the cards and deal.

Unbelievable. It looked like a simple garment until I watched you make it. That hem literally gives me anxiety. Great Job Juul.

Don't let that hem give you anxiety! I did it one stitch at a time, and only because I enjoyed it.

Spectacular. But then everything you do is spectacular.

I loved watchig you slowly flip through your notebook at the beginning and seeing all the other pieces you've made

I absolutely love all of this, but I cannot stop oohing and aaahing over that fabric!

I love it! I think every dress requires spinning to test fit. And really, who wouldn't want a glamorous, cozy potato sack dress?

Much as I would find it daunting to do, I really love that woven hem. I could actually begin to fathom it from watching this video . I really like the shape and details in that dress. I loved the mock up too! I’d happily wear that all summer. You did such an excellent job with this project; And made a gorgeous video too.! You are still very much my favourite youtuber. And Wegie! 🤭Cats + sewing= some kind of chaos😘

Well done! I was so happy you said that about the historical fashion police! Our foremothers would have used whatever made their jobs easier. The mock-up looks like a fun summery dress. P.S., I love your stripey pants! lol

Just looking at your scrapbook makes me want to do stuff!

Thank you so much for your videos, and especially for you commentary re: gatekeeping on the 'authenticity' of reproduction of historical garments. And your cat is just magnificent.

Those fabric scissors 😊 And the neckline is so beautiful.

Просто удовольствие наблюдать за всеми движениями

Thank you! I really enjoy your work. Beautiful job! Cat is a great helper! And great to see you smiling and laughing!

Oh that fabric really is beautiful... Congratulations on finishing the dress! The seams look so aesthetically placed once you start twirling...

You look great in it.. 😍 you're wearing one of the oldest fashion in history 😳 whaah ✌️😊

I can't recall the last time I twirled in a garden.... Maybe a half century ago.... 🍄🍄 Once I have my second Covid-19 vaccine shot, I definitely have some plans to fulfil.... Take care and be safe 😷

I love how you're SO everyday practical, just like would do. Thank you.

I am constantly baffled by people who can sew with such loose weave fabric without loosing 4 inches off the edge. I love the dress!

@JuulThijssen

I was super concerned about this, too! What I tried to prevent it was cutting very carefully, move the fabric around as little as possible and only to sew it, immediately do the seam finishing for each seam, and apply singling to all the hem edges. If it were a modern garment I’d have used fraycheck or serged the edges. And thank you

You are so meticulous and precise. I love your videos♥️♥️♥️‼️‼️‼️

As always, a wonderful video with beautiful sewing. Congrats on your D10585.1. Thanks for showing us all the details.

I love the dress and the video and 👏👏👏 for you for reprimanding the Historical Accuracy Police. I laughed out so loud my family jumped.

This turned out so well! I admire your patience with that fabric, it looked fraying was a thing! Thank you for sharing, and Thank Wegie for his role as well!

Those examples were great, i especially liked the "weaving" one, at least that's what it looks like😀 seems very strong and sturdy

Very well made and I hope you know you have the patience of a saint.

I think you must have the most soothing youtubes I've ever seen. I always feel better watching you carefully make wonderful artful stuff. Wegie looks so cozy, it's like stepping into a different world, so serene.

I love the stitches you do. You are so talented.

It looks so comfortable and warm! Thank you for sharing your talent and skills!

I love your videos. So SOOTHING. And kitty thinks chewing is helping. I think what you did must be that mid evil equivalent to serging. Amazing.

That fabric was wonderful! I can see how you fell in love with it. I love the hem, well, the whole dress, and might have to try that on a "modern" skirt! Thanks for sharing!

Experimental archeology at work! Love watching you do all these wonderful skills and absolutely adore the adorable Wedgie kitty blessing your project with kitty hair and string playing!!! Your dress looks amazing and so very warm!!!

I love your Wegie‼️‼️‼️♥️♥️♥️

I so enjoyed watching this ...it took so much patience and probably time ? U have made a lovely warm garment for wandering around draughty cold castles ! It would look nice perhaps with a woven leather belt ? Thanks again .look forward to the next one .

I do enjoy watching how you catalogue your clothing adventures, the detail, fabrics, so nice. It will kill me to cut on the floor these days, good thing you are so young. Gorgeous seam finishing, and nice woven fabric you selected. The dress dances, I do like how you finished off all the seams, and I know it has to be comfortable? I am vexed, what is it you are doing with the hem, I have never seen that done before? Some technique of weaving, it has a very neat affect. You can be very proud, nice nice.

To be honest, I have too much mess on my tables so the floor is the only space I have to cut, haha!

Very nice. I thought the stitching around the neckline was particularly lovely. And I have always found that particular ham rather impressive.

Well done! As you were hemming I thought 'must be the assistant's nap time'. Just then he appeared refreshed and ready for action. The hem looks wonderful and I love the garden twirling!

Oh my goodness, Wegie is a stunning cat! I do love your non spoken style but I do have to remember to actually watch rather than simply listen. Thank you Juul, the reminder to slow down and do one think at once is timely and welcome.

i very much enjoyed this video and learned that i will likely not make any authentic medieval garments. i have not the patience.

That dress looks SO comfortable, and I love all those hand sewing and finishing details, beautiful work 😍

I love the sound of sewing shears cutting fabric!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️i also have those two books! I also have ‘walking through time’ its a shoe book❤️❤️❤️👟🥿👠👡👢👞🥾

That seam stich is so cool. I love your cat, so cute .

It's so lovely! All those details are fantastic and really make it so much more than just a garment. It looks so cozy, too! Your fabric is gorgeous. (Also tell Wegie I love him.)

You do lovely work! 😍

Just gorgeous work! As I sit and stitch, I am wearing my own tater sack dress, which I love dearly. Hugs!

that was well worth waiting for. I especially love the hem. thank you again. x

I love this dress!

Your seeing and weaving skills are wonderful and mesmerising to watch 🤩👌💖💝

SO cozy and beautifully made! You're very talented.

Your videos make me feel as if I were a friend who popped by to visit and share a cup of tea...then I just sit quietly to watch and learn and enjoy your company. Wegie is a spectacular feline specimen! I love his attitude! lol In this video you state that the tab on the front and back gusset is of an unknown purpose. In actually making this garment, do you have any ideas on the purpose? ...possibly to strengthen that join?

That turned out wonderfully if Wegie does say so himself! The twisted casting over technique was very cool. Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful project with us. It's a pleasure to watch your videos. Take care.

You are a very talented and admirable woman

Superb. Worth getting up early to watch! I love the way this project looks so simple and natural, but there is actually a lot of subtle and careful detail (the weave, the seam finishes, the use of gussets and gores to shape). It also looks beautifully comfortable and warm, which I imagine was very important in 14th century Greenland! PSA: Jane Smiley's novel The Greenlanders is now available as an e-book and audiobook, after having been out of print for a long time. I have yet to read it (it's next in my queue) but apparently the historical detail is solid. I think this would be a perfect listening companion for a Herjolfnes sewing project. Now you need to make some pockets to wear underneath. And I need to get on with the bevrijdingsrok I'm making for my daughter's birthday in early May.
