Making an Eighteenth-Century Petticoat and Pockets!

#Historybounding #historyinspired #myirelandbox
Welcome one and all! I'm getting back to KZread-roots with some historical shenanigans. I've always wanted to make some eighteenth-century pockets with this style of skirt so I figured why not make it a little shorter and call it modern?

    I have a store-bought skirt that is too big around that I'm converting into this style (inspired by seeing the Coquelicot skirt). I've been hemming (ugh, the pun!) & hawing about how to do the side seams. I like your solution here -- kinda genius! I'm definitely ripping (ugh!) that off. 😁

    Attaching the pockets only to the front and not to the back allows for the pocket and the gaps to be used, it then fits as a peticoat and a modern skirt. Many Healthcare professional uniforms/coats have similar pockets to reach pants pockets beneath them. Great video! Cheers doll!

    lmao subscribed the second I saw the Legolas poster. I'm making a similar style skirt in wool for our very cold Minnesota winters and am so excited that it will fit regardless of postpartum weight changes.

    I made this almost a sew along, I made it knee length. I used light aquamarine embroidered cotton and added an emerald green tulle ruffle to the hem. I know, I just wanted to use that tulle up 😂 I’m gonna make a tougher one for every day use 👍🏻 also, LEGOLAS 😍

    I made this type of skirt yesterday and omg girl, i did the same exact mistake by ended up with too wide feont and back panels 😂 had to add more pleats as well, but unfortunatelly i realized it when I alread had sewn the waistband on 🥲 but turned out pretty nevertheless. Yours looks absolutelly goregous. And your hair is so pretty as well ✨️

    This is so wonderful!! Such a great blend of techniques!! I wonder if ties could be forgone for lapped waistbands that have the button on the INSIDE, but several buttonholes for when we fluctuate. I know I like to wear my skirts with and without corsets and sometimes the ties cut in too much and leave marks. 🤔

    Just thinking out loud, next time you could stitch the pickets to the inside of the open seam at sides so you only have ties on your waist from the skirt.

    I just got an idea: could you put an elastic-pocket-allowance on the inside waist of that too-big- skirt. --so it only shows from the inside, but it gathers that small excess that you have?

    Loved this so much 😍 Such a good idea. I must admit to to telling the screen that the pleats need to be deeper otherwise it will be too big. However, the outcome is beautiful! Keep rolling, you're doing great!!!

    I have now seen this concept made as a circle skirt, gathered, and pleated, but this is the first one I've seen where the pockets weren't attached directly to the skirt.

    That is a modern version developed by “wildflower designs”. In the 18th century they didn’t use circle skirts (they use a lot of cloth which was expensive) and pockets were not attached at that time. Pockets were instead, closer to a purse worn under your petticoat, except not a purse but pockets. I hope to spark your interest in historical clothing because it’s awesome!

    @Floweroftheprairie2720 I've had an interest in historical clothing for about 15 years. Some friends introduced me to the SCA and loaned me garb to wear at events. My brother and I both bought a few items, and we sewed him some shirts back then, but they moved away. I became disabled, money became really tight, and patterns were difficult to find. My mom got into researching our family tree and discovered which clans we are from in Scotland and Ireland, so I was looking at kilts and kilted skirts. We have a special occasion on the horizon that, while not formal, requires nicer clothing than I wear on a day to day basis, so I was looking for a skirt and discovered that they are not in our current budget. As I said, I have seen people make split-side skirts in a few different styles inspired by Wildflower Designs' pattern.

    Doing the math initially would have saved you a ton of unpicking and resewing. Pleats on top of pleats? Sorry, but this is painful. If you are going to teach, doing it correctly would be kinder. Also, you would end up with a garment that looks nice and lasts you years.
