I feel very creative with it and am having fun, and I try to make it where I really enjoy each finished piece.

You're right friend. You rally don't have to have anywhere fancy to sew. Anytime I feel like sewing, I bust out my sewing machine, or hand sewing kit, and just start a project either in my room or living room. I've made a few garments that I am very proud of, and I started seriously sewing during the pandemic. Just go for it...you've got this!

Two years in the future and sending past Rachel warmth and support. Appreciate she films her episodes even when she's pushing through a variety of dips and swirls of energy. ♥️

So totally agree with you about. "Just do it". I started sewing when I was 40, because I needed a costume and could not buy what I needed. No seam finishes, no real idea what I was doing, but it worked. 20 years later, I'm still sewing and enjoying it. The nieces and nephews love visiting, as I have hundreds of kids costumes that they get to play with. Happy sewing.

My weird sewing advice is start altering clothes, its a less intimidating way to get into it

@lynn858

4 жыл бұрын

Agreed. Staring at a piece of new, even cheap or repurposed fabric still makes me unreasonably nervous. But I’ve made some terrible choices in cheap thrift clothing I thought I could alter. The simplest alteration is shortening a hem, on a non-stretch, non slippery fabric like cotton or denim. Adding pockets into the side hem of a skirt is also pretty simple, and the sense of accomplishment is excellent. Taking a too small garment and making it larger, while it is sometimes possible, is an advanced project. Entirely shrinking an oversized garment is less difficult, but a frustrating place to start. Shortening skirts from the waist band is possible, but shortening from them hem is almost always easier. Taking in a gathered waist on a skirt is simple. Taking in the waist or a dress is do-able with darts, but you’re better off with a second person to pin it to your size. Slippery, silky fabrics can be frustrating. Sheer overlay fabrics require specialized, although not necessarily difficult, techniques. Stretch fabrics, including t-shirts are sometimes frustrating, but, start with a T-shirt that isn’t your favourite, and if it goes less than awesome, it’s a very cheap mistake.

@@carolharper1241 I am new to tailoring, so have just started using iron on interfacing. The book I got on tailoring is from 1982, written by 2 ladies, and I think it is Easy Tailoring. It shows how iron-on interfacing, like pellon, in different weights, really changed the traditional tailoring by making it faster and doable by regular seamstresses. I am starting to use it to fix a seam before sewing (iron-on sew-through type) or wonder tape tape baste washable type (harder for me to mess with so far.) I was sure my interfacing wasn't going to work for me at first, but using parchment paper so it won't stick, making sure everything is well steamed or damp, and not moving the iron work well for me now. My book helped me pick which fabrics work best with that easy method ad which weight to use for which fabric and project. Like hair canvas for a coat, for instance. But for this hobbit type project she can also look on her pattern to find the weight of the interfacing. For a vintage pattern you might have to ask on here to get the right weight to substitute your iron on interfacing. the book said some fabrics you can iron directly on the back of your fashion fabric. But there are some tricks to that, so another safe way to add it is to iron on to your lining.

I've been binging your videos and felt like I had to stop and comment on what you said here about hoping that your content could help people in some way. I can attest that your videos have that desired effect! Truthfully, discovering your channel has been one of the highlights that has made this year bearable. You've inspired me to lean into my whimsical and crafty interests and have the courage just to have a style that's different from the norm. Your aesthetics and sense of humor give me LIFE. Like you like to say, we DO have fun here, and I guess I just wanted to thank you for that ❤✨

Chatting while sewing: “Sewing Circle Video”? “Sewing Bee Video?”

Whenever I watch one of Rachel's videos I have an overwhelming urge to get my sewing machine out. I shall be going t the fabric shop when it re-opens x

Oh god first I’m so psyched you answered my question - I second the turtle face and finger guns out of the room. No excellent boiled potatoes here XD

Your videos (especially when Frodo is in them) bring me so much joy ❤

Video ideas I now need and want;pattern+fabric lucky dip =name or number of each written down and put in separate jars and what you pick is what you make, what you started out with when you first started sewing, wish to make top 10,what patterns do you use often and time and time again, how do you draw up a pattern from mind, make an outfit for frodo, best outfits made and worst, what stuff you use now, top ten sewing tips, make a vintage style bag, upcyxle/redisign a pair of shoes or boots to match your athestic, favorite material shop walk throughs, where you buy your materials, what materials you like for what things, biggest sewing challanges, how you would plan a sewing for beginners book (i would buy!) and other you tubers you like to watch. I am an ideas person. I now wish reality would make them come true😭

You actually inspired me to learn how to sew! I started with masks and then I made a Doctor Who button-up!!!

Heehee cute!!!

I love how you ended up making a new favorite item and you weren’t even initially feeling creative :) just do it proof

Seeing you buy vintage sewing patterns to make your own clothes inspired me to buy vintage patterns of my own to make my 80s wardrobe dreams come true! So thanks, Rachel!

KZreadrs like you are giving me life 🥰 I haven't sewn since last April because I failed pretty badly at sewing masks 😷 They were too tight or too big or too narrow. Killed my desire to sew anything. Seeing your casual sewing gives me some inspiration and courage to try again 😄

I love you Rachel, I took two sewing classes in High School, how ever my new sewing machine, I got in 2014. The year after my father passed away, in 2013. As it turns out, I did not get a single present, that year, not even for my birthday, or Christmas, or any holiday which you traditionally get a some kind of a gift for,..! So in the first week of Jan 2014, my mother asked me, what I would like, to make up for all of that lack of gift giving. I had a choice, either a sewing machine, with all accessories, or a trip to Italy to visit my best friend,..? That was an easy one, I choose, the sewing machine, because I knew it would keep my mind busy, and help me to get over, my father passing away. It worked.

I needed to hear someone tell me to "just do it." Doing things has been hard for me lately

"Ravenpuff sounds like spooky breakfast cereal." OMG you get meeeeeeeeeeeee. I'm a Ravenclaw and I would buy the CRAP out of that.

I love how your dog sits there like you’ve been conversing with him (or her, idk) the whole time. 🥺❤️

Yo this made me really want to learn how to sew

21:25 Yup, been there😂 Sometimes double woof. Also, Native is my fave pit schtuff. Thanks for the plug.

Hey, great video! 💕 I love the hobbit-like dresses! As a Taylor, I have a great and easy trick for the seam: sew with a large stich one cm (or how wide you want the seam to be) away from the edge of the fabric. The "nice side of the fabric" is facing down as you fold the fabric at the stitches line and fold again so that the edge of the fabric is covered. Then sew over it, done! 😊 You will get a very nice seam. If you have a rounded seam like here in the video I advise you to first pull one thread a little before folding. Then it lies nice and flat for stitching. I hope you can understand my explanation 😁😊 Have a nice day 🤗

I have such room envy right now. I need to find a place and move fast so I can make my own little cave of brightness and light.

Yes, that sunroom is so gorgeous!

I have started living for the notification that Rachel Maksy has uploaded. And I have no regrets.

I can’t believe you did all that on a cider donut and mug of coffee! What kind of Hobbit *are* you? As an answer to Mr. Collins, I would belch the alphabet. That should do it.

Wait, all this time I thought she turned down Mr. Darcy!

I love your videos so much! You've inspired me to finally start sewing my own clothes and try to finally realize my own aesthetic of vintage/cottagegore. One tip I learned (by watching one of my other favorite seamstressea on youtbe, Gertie) for sewing hems more neatly is to run a stich a quarter inch all the way around the edge of the area you're hemming and use it as a consistent guide for pressing and pinning a double fold hem. You can use the edge of the presser foot as a guide and that way you can get a nice even double fold hem without getting out any extra tools.
