Make what you can and ethically source the rest! The Essentials Club is all about sharing the steps to become more resourceful and creative with crafting your own minimal, conscious wardrobe.
I'm Maddy and I started this channel on my journey to live a simple yet full life with only the essentials - rich in meaningful creations and experiences. There's something so rewarding about having things around your home or in your closet you've made by your self for your self. I want others to experience that feeling for themselves or at the very least open people's minds to being more conscious about where they source items from.
Join the club and follow along these tutorials, tips and general adventures!

I've personally preferred this method shown recently (and find it easy for beginners to be able to adjust if need be too) but maybe I need to try the suggested way again as it's been a few years :) I love that with self drafting it's easy to change anything at each step to better suit our preferences! So you could definitely switch to your method instead for this part.
This is a Master Class in Sewing Tutorials!! Love all your stuff and it is so lovely to see how your project turned out--looks absolutely stunning and your joy is contagious!
For begginers at the second top: when u sew the elastic tunnels, sew BOTH first, then put the elastic in. Sewin one with the another already gathered can be tricky, since it feels like youre sewing a circle
wow Belgium looks amazingly beautiful very old architecture looks old age / modern. So much to see so little time. Looked like you guys had an amazing time thrift shopping too.
Hey Lovely so sorry for the late response to your video but I really love your green pants just wondering if they were one of your fabulous creations or a thrift shop piece? Love your videos btw you always make it super clear and easy to understand how to explain things especially to a person like myself who is very new to sewing. Thanks so much in advance if you do get a chance to respond. xo
Fuera de eso su letra sus números no se entienden ni un culo. OIGA usted está enseñando a miles de personas en el mundo aunque dudo que la sigan. Porque no está enseñando para los demás. Dele vergüenza que los gráficos sean bien claros y no en cuadernitos mediocres elementales dele vergüenza. Haga lo que que enseña de una manera clara y concisa😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
Hi! I'm trying out this dress as a beginner, and I am insanely confused at the cutting on bias part, how do I measure out how much I am cutting after getting the 45 degree angle? Because I just measured out 100 cm (roughly 39 inches) on each side of my fabric to create a square which gave me way too much fabric cut off.. I am very very confused haha!
Excellent video. I just bought my first sewing machine and figured I'd teach myself to do what I need and want to. This video is concise, succinct and informative. I just subscribed and will reference these videos as needed. Thanks for providing an easily accessable resource for us beginners.
Pretty cool idea. Do I have a question. Would it work to unpick the waistband from the side area before any cutting and then splice the waistband back together after sewing the side seams?
eternally obsessed with your videos, i come back year after year after year to follow your tutorials. They're so detailed and easy to follow, thank you for your generosity with knowledge sharing and making learning to sew your own wardrobe so accessible and easy!!! <3 xxx
What many beginners and pretty much most tutorials fail to tell us who know nothing is when to sew and when to serge. When do you use a surger machine and when to use a sewing machine. I didn't know they were different so she said overlooking which I think is a serger machine. So sounds like you need two machines to get a more professional more long lasting results. But then I dont know when to use them
Hi Maddy! What a delightful vlog this is. I live in Amsterdam (in the Jordaan) and you walked past my house :-). If only I had known you were coming to Amsterdam. It would have been so nice to have a glass of wine with you guys and show you my sewing creations. I can tell you really made the most of the city. You have a talent for finding the good spots :-). Because I've been living in Amsterdam for so long, I sometimes forget how beautiful the city is. Your vlog opened my eyes again. Enjoy your trip! Love, Anouk
I feel that way too when people visit where live. Always a good reminder to make the most of exploring the little nooks :) Can't believe I walked past your place haha. We loved exploring Amsterdam. Hopefully be back to check out more soon!
