Sewing a McCall's Angela Clayton 18th Century Pattern

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

I sew an 18th Century inspired gown for my sister's Christmas present using an Angela Clayton McCall's pattern. I mostly followed the pattern, but not for the sleeves, as my sister wanted a different type of sleeve.

    That's incredible that you made such detailed costumes for all your family members! Beautiful dress! I've followed Angela Clayton for a long time, so I enjoyed watching someone make up one of her patterns! I own it but haven't made it yet!

    Don't sell yourself short on not having the budget for silk; Dupioni is a type of silk, it's just slubby, which means it doesn't cost as much. I love your color choice! I also have this pattern, so seeing it put together is great!

    I don't think there's any shame in using synthetic fabrics, especially if silk isn't in the budget. When I use real silk I usually have either found it on sale or saved up for it.

    I usually end up drafting my own patterns because commercial ones intimidate me, but you make this one look quite approachable! Well done~

    I've never sewn clothes before but have always loved historical costuming as a concept. Previously I thought it was something I could never do... What with having a body that is overlooked by most patterns, but seeing your videos over cocovid has inspired me and given me the confidence to just get out there and try it. This pattern is my longish term goal to make work for me, it's a long way off but fingers cross I'll make it there ♥️

    Thank you so much for your video... To be honest I struggle starting my costume (I purchased that pattern too), because I don't have any sewing machine. But I can see that you use a lot your fingers to make it! Also about the petticoat pieces (number 12 and 12A), how do you cut them please? ( it looks so small on the pattern itself, but on the instructions it says apparently to cut a few pieces of the same "square", and afterwards to stich them together to get the whole petticoat (without the ruffle:)) am I right? Thank you for your help! 🌹 Ps: the choice of fabrics is absolutely elegant!

    Heya! I had a question about the fit - did you have any issues with it at all? I saw on the pattern photo that it’s quite low cut at the front so I’m struggling to think of what stays would be best as I wouldn’t want them poking out the top hehe!
