  Those who don't have the knak for sewing might see it complicated...the space you had to work in made it harder to SEE/understand. I appreciate your sharing your "how to" I once made a cape for a child, turned out well. This time I wanna make a cape with a stand up collar for an adult...but people out there make one the very best you can it'll be good for several different uses and will last for years. Thanks again...byeeeeeee

  sorry to say you seem to take the joy out of making these, I've done my own, and I think you are being really pedantic about doing something which is supposed to be free, creative, individual and joyful. I wonder what Katwise thinks of this, but am sure she's far too gracious to say. To me it seems to fly in the face of her generosity to be vlogging making details of another artists work, giving details of her tutorial, there's a reason she sells the tutorials. Maybe you should be vlogging about your own tutorials? This doesn't sit well with me, but anyway have a lovely day

  Wow. I greatly enjoyed making and wearing my creation. I tried very hard not to give away the details of the tutorial while still showing my creative process. Most authors are happy to have favorable reviews of their patterns, as more people will purchase them. The only thing I was unhappy with was my initial choice of sweaters. But by all means make some tutorials yourself. You will find it's not as easy as you seem to think it is. Have lovely day youself.

  I'd connect a tiny something thru the eye of the needle as a 'stopper', perhaps a small bit of wire or something, as assurance the top bead won't fall off, even though it is glued. I've not made jewelry, but I bet there is something that would work. Using doll needles is genius, the perfect strength and poke. Thank you. I'll be making some using those.

  Thank you for this brilliant video. Isn't it typical that women were penalised for mens bad behaviour?!?! The same thing happened here in Melbourne, Australia where I live. Apparently the law here didn't actually outlaw hatpins, but, they had to have safe ends on them and, just like America, hatpins had to be a certain length, 8 inches to be exact! I LOVE your Steampunk hat, so cool. Also, if you're looking for pins to use, long head pins or eye pins work really well, and you can buy really pretty ones with hearts or tiny crowns at the top.

  Thank you.This knowledge with help other sewers for their lifetime. I have been doing what you have suggested since the 1970's and my mother before me.

I am thinking about a lined vest but the fabric has such a large pattern. Any ideas would be welcome.

  Thank you :) In my experience I have found that some home dec fabrics like curtians and tablecloths can be quite light like regular fabric. But sheets are usually easy to work with. I have made a lot of clothing from them. Quilting cotton would also work well, my local fabric store has a discounted section. Sometimes you can thrift it as well. If you are working on a budget I would suggest thrifting some fabrics and trying out your pattern with the different weights/types of fabric. And if you are unsure of the fibre content you can always do a burn test. I hope that helps.

  here are all the equations with examples from the videos: all of the measurements are in inches (") and i added the timestamps where each part is explained in the video. a "pleated skirt calculator" is linked at the bottom, but i don’t know if it’s accurate or not. (1:27) things you need to know: waist circumference, hip circumference, desired length of skirt plus seam allowance for hem, desired number of pleats (preferably an even number), and estimated pleat depth x2 for the front and back of the pleat. ex. waist = 28", hip = 38", length of skirt with seam allowance = 20", number of pleats = 15, and pleat depth = 3" (1.5" x2) ^^note: those blessed with a big booty may want to make the back of their skirt longer. (2:10) pleat spacing: divide number of pleats by hip circumference. ex. 15 pleats/38" = 2.533 rounded to 2 1/2" (2:27) length of fabric: multiply number of pleats by the pleat depth, add hip circumference, and add 1" for seam allowance. ex. (15 x 3") + 38" + 1" = 84" so the total dimensions of the fabric is this measurement by the desired length for the skirt (ex. 84" by 20"). (5:10) waist band: length = waist circumference plus a couple extra inches for seam allowance, and width = 2" or whatever floats your boat. ^^note: if you want to add a button to your waistband, add the necessary inches to the length. (9:00) optional waist adjustment: step 1. subtract waist circumference from hip circumference to find total adjustment. ex. 38" - 28" = 10"<- total adjustment step 2. divide total adjustment by number of pleats x2. ex. 10"/(15 x2) or 10"/30 = .333 rounded to 1/4 inch ^^note: (10:00) the other options for the waist adjustment are A. gather the difference, or B. add elastic to the waist band. and voilà!! hope this helps xx pleated skirt calculator link: www.omnicalculator.com/everyday-life/pleated-skirt

  Firstly thank you for making such a wonderful video! Secondly, if we have two separate panels (I bought them both as one yard scraps but they are the same) Would it be possible to make two quarter yard capes and sew them together to make them a half one? Or should I sew them together before hand and then proceed? Sorry I'm not even sure if you can help with my stupid question. Thank you as well for making great content!

• 
  @rcowham3 жыл бұрын

  Thank you :) I think depending on how wide your fabric is you could sew them togeather and cut the hole on the seam at the top edge. However this might make for a much shorter cape. I would recommend making a paper pattern, to check the fit before you cut your fabric. You might have better luck using my fantasy cape method minus the hood. If you don't put a ton of gathers in you should still be able to attach the collar. I think with two one yard pieces this would give you a longer cape. You can also make the collar out of a contrasting fabric. I hope that helps :)

• 
  @rcowham3 жыл бұрын

  I totally agree. I think the manufacturers do it to save on costs. I have yet to see a men's pair of pants with fake pockets. In the yesteryears pockets were taken out of womens dresses, to prevent women from carrying around dangerous pamphlets and "starting" trouble. I don't think that is the reason anymore though as we have purses and backpacks and more freedoms now. Once we all successfully boycott fake pocket pants and skirts the fashion industry will loose money and start giving us pocket equality. I hope this video helps you rebel and make some nice rouge pockets.

  Ms. Rebecca, can you mix terrycloth hoodies and woven acrylics okay considering that you didn't get well either?

• 
  @rcowham3 жыл бұрын

  I think it would depend on how much the fabric will ravel and shred when cut. I would try to cut the wovens on the bias to help stop fraying. Cutting terry cloth (as I have experienced it) seems like it would make a mess. But without seeing or feeling the fabric I cannot say. As long as the fabrics you are choosing are similar in weight they should work ok. I have been planning on making another out of all denim, though it will probably weigh 20 pounds when finished. I hope that helps.
