One Day Make: Sally's Dress (vintage)

Okay more like 'One (point 5) Day Make', but it's fINEEE ehehehe. Was this the best idea to do a couple days before Comic Con? NO it was absolutely not, but I had fun! Anywho, me and Tommy booked our Disney trip for a month from now and I immediately wanted to get started on my Sally dress that I will be using for a Disneybound. I've always wanted to make a sorta "patchwork" dress so this was the perfect opportunity to recycle some thrifted clothes into something completely new!
I hope you guys have fun watching!

    I love that you used fabric with more muted tones! I don't really like the Sally merch that uses really saturated colors. This is beautiful 😍 I love how dedicated you are to your projects.

    Yes! In the movie it's very muted and natural but they upped the vibrancy to appeal to kids. I like the more muted look too! It's spookier! 🎃

    2 tips. 1) spray fabric glue. Saves time. 2) you can mix acyclic paints with fabric paint medium. Makes the paint turn into fabric paint if you want something more permanent.

    I made a mummy costume for my nephew one year, but using a jogging suit as base and hand sewing torn strips of sheet all over from top to bottom. The strips of sheet, I had hand aged each strip by dipping each one in a can with india ink and water then hanging them to dry all over my back yard. Then I sewed and then sewed some more. I was sewing at every event and party I went to. I was sewing at home. I'd visit friends and sew. Sewing. SEWING. SEWING. More sewing. I'm so glad he was only 4 but there had to be at least -- 60 hours of hand sewing. It looked so cool when I was done but whew. It was much more work than I could ever have imagined. I feel Rachel's pain. I would love to make this dress, brilliant idea with the felt skirt base.

    The thing that will really help take your costumes/sewing projects to the next level is honestly just starting to make mock ups. If I am making something even using a commercial pattern if I find myself asking “is it worth a mock up?” The answer is almost always yes 😂 (all hail Bernadette, and Morgan donner, and my extensive theatre background for teaching me the value of mockups)

    One day was incredibly ambitious for such a complex dress....you nailed it! It looks fabulous...the weathering really brought it all together. I have been wearing circle skirts exclusively for a couple of years now, so here are my long-winded pearls of wisdom..... 1. If you add another inch or two to the waist radius, then gather, you can let the waist out in future years if needed. (add another 3 or 4 inches to the waistband, too, at the button end, & tuck it behind). You can fold the fabric in four if it's thin. 2. Line the waistband with iron-on visoflex type stuff. It makes it sit very neatly without rolling down, especially if you wear thin belts over the top. 3. Stitch the front of the waistband to the gathered skirt, with the waistband laying on top, upside down. Fold it over a fraction longer on the back, & pin along the back. Check the pins are running *inside the front seam*. then sew along the seam. This is called 'gutter stitch' & it's a game changer!!! (Thank you KZread channel Havering College of Further and Higher Education!) 4. Add a second button to the waistband to allow for waist fluctuations. 5. Easy neat hem: hang your skirt on a form with a waist that's tight so it hangs straight. Let it drop for 2 weeks. (half your skirt is on the bias! some fabrics will drop 3 inches or so - in alternate sections - in this time) Pick a length & pin. Mark that height on a wall or door frame (I use a card blutacked on), then mark that height all the way around. This allows a bit of extra length for your bum etc., so it will actually be level when wearing it. Make your form as close to your figure as possible (with cushioning if necessary). Press a fold over the marked line & sew very close to the edge. Trim excess off, fold over very narrow & hem again. Even though you sew it twice, it's much easier & very neat. Also it doesn't use much fabric, so if you need to re-hem after it's dropped again later on, you don't lose much length. (Thank you KZreadr Gertie!) 6. I get a 33" skirt with a 29" waist from an Australian size Queen flat sheet, a Double fitted sheet, or a Single doona cover. 7. Flannelette makes the most comfy skirts ever. It's like wearing track pants. It drapes beautifully & is actually very cool in summer once the fleece thins out. You can also layer them under your other skirts as thermal petticoats in winter, or under a sheer skirt for modesty. Phew, sorry to ramble....circle skirts are my thing... P.S. Hip dips here, too......that's why I originally started wearing full skirts!

    @@ericadubach1974 I too did not like the slow and time consuming process of cleaning cat hair off my stuff. Here is how I was able to get some not all but the most highly visible cat hair off my clothing. Once I got home from work I automatically had a cotton house coat aka duster at the ready (I changed out of my work clothing), Link to the ones I mean as an example: www.shopnational.com/loungewear/house-coats-and-dusters And this way my two cats got to hog my lap all they wanted. And these coats wash up so easy in the machine. In the morning when I was on my way out the door I'd take a rubber dishwashing glove put it on my hand. And turn on the faucet, put my gloved hand under the water shake a bit of water off, and wipe my clothing with my damp gloved hand. Most not all of the cat hair will come off, and I repeat the process. Wet, shake hand in sink, wipe clothes. If you are worried about the cat hair clogging the sink, you can get a wire sink strainer and place that over the opening to catch most of the cat hair.

    I'm a huge fan of the channel, of Rachel's vibe and the *oh so* characteristic, mesmerising shenanigans she gets up to - as well as being an equally enthusiastic fan of her dearest fur-babies! I've been following along, watching videos quite regularly, for long enough now, to have (what I think is) a pretty good, general idea of "how she do, how she be"... (I promise there's a good point to this; I just tend to be on the wordy side...) So I was taken aback, when at around the 5.15-5.20 minute-mark, she suddenly sais that her cat's hair on the "new throne" fabric is "gross" (not a direct quote; I'm paraphrasing)... "Well, I'll be! Good golly, miss Molly!"... I'd kinda gotten the impression, through all her other filmed interactions & comments about her paw-children, that she loves them dearly - more than life itself, possibly. So now, I'm just left a little dazed and bewildered, as to where that might'a come from...? Anybody else get hung up on that slightly jarring, "record-scratch" detail, or is it just me?

Your paint detail & treatment was absolutely brilliant.👻 It really brought the shadowy, saturated, spookiness of Tim Burton's world to full life. Bravo!👏 📏Measuring & doing math...this alone is pretty scary stuff for a person like me who never seems to get the same numbers twice no matter how hard I try when looking at a measuring tape. Feel dyslexic about that. Compound that with outrageous perfectionism that amps up my stress level. 💻 At least with most math formulas & calculations today I can let the computer do the heavy lifting. 💧Phew...on that score! 🏆Seriously Stunning Sally! 🖤Adore your whole entire ensemble🖤...and your attitude along the way.

Seeing the trial and error process of your wonderful projects is actually quite inspirational, and I very much appreciate you letting us see it.
