Welcome to another insight of my little upcycling business world! It's been a JAM PACKED week full of order making, pattern instruction creating, designing and looking after my cats! 🌸🪡
I'm not a pattern expert (yet!) so here you can see how I create a new dress shape, and prototype it...
The bloomer tie trouser pattern is due to be launched 19th July, so that's fun!

You work so hard and are very talented. Thanks for showing us glimpses of your life as a business owner.

@afrayed_upcycling 10 дней назад

Aww thank you! I am taking a few days off next week because I think ive gone into a slight burnout period, but hope to be back soon! 🥹🌸

@stephanieloffler8566 13 дней назад

Dear Scarlett, thanks a lot for showing us one week in your business life. I really do appreciate that you share that with us and I love watching those videos (as well as the tutorials). For the short time that you are posting on RU-vid, you can be really proud of yourself and of what you have accomplished so far. Also during your busy week. When you started to list the things you want to do at the beginning I thought "Charity shop? Workshop? How great is that?" I really cross fingers that this will be a success. I'll continue with the RU-vid tutorials as a workshop. 😅 Your style is unique and though I personally would not wear it like that, I really like seeing it. I would probably wear one statement piece combined with neutral colors and not go "all in" - but I love seeing it on you. At some point I want to create a wrap skirt from neck ties - but currently I am lacking time to do it. Regards from Germany, Stephanie XO

Hi Stephanie, I’ve had one of those down days today and reading your comment has honestly put me in the best mood 🥹 thank you for taking the time to comment! I really appreciate it 🦋🧵 I can’t wait to see your neck tie skirt!

@stephanieloffler8566 11 дней назад

@@afrayed_upcycling Dear Scarlett, I am so happy that my comment brightened up your day ❤️ Sometimes I'm lacking words, but commenting also helps me improving my English beside the usual and daily Business English. Unfortunately you probably have to wait quite a long time to see a picture as I am working fulltime and we are renovating a house every day after our job and into the evening. Sorry about that. No time for sewing at the moment 😢. So I buy vintage sewing machines instead. 🤣 When it's finished, I'll make sure to share a picture by Instagram or e-mail. 😉 Have a wonderful evening and rest of the week and I just heard that England will be in the Finals of the European soccer/Football (I always forget which one's british and American English 😊) Championship. 🎉 And whenever you're feeling down again: You are doing a wonderful job and just imagine all the subscribers in a hall or a little stadion. You're brightening their days with your videos. 💕👍🏻

The creative process is a try, fail, succeed, try again thing. FAIL=First Attempts In Learning…take it from a nearly seventy year old nan. You’re doing great.

It was lovely seeing your babies, hearing of your achievements out in the community and I'd love your drinking chocolate recipe 😂 Thank you so much for all the dedicated effort you put into your week in the life video like you always do ❤ Xx

Another great video. Thank you. I hope the kitten has behaved herself more recently. I am in awe of your talents and love everything you make. You're very relatable and easy going and explain things well. If I was 30 years younger I would be making some of your patterns with gusto - but you have inspired me to look at alternative fabrics for when I am feeling brave.

@georginapreston4171 13 дней назад

Love your style and the T-shirt dresses, it might be a nice finishing idea to use matching thread to put your labels on so there isn't a noticeable zigzag rectangle on the back of the dress @7:29 or do as manufacturers do with a folded tag so you have a nice invisible single line of stitching, it's draws a lot of attention that white thread on the back. just an idea. I love your channel and can't wait to see what you make next :)

@afrayed_upcycling 11 дней назад

Thank you! I’ve always done the obvious zigzag label thing so I might keep it! I do have an idea for this, but I’ll wait until it’s ready!😂

@sewciology22 12 дней назад

Hi Scarlett you are getting really good at this now (vlogging🙌) I love all the versions of the Joy mini dress. The charity shop workshop sounds like an awesome idea - I would be interested to know how that goes. Could bring it to Oz for ya! I like the deep V neck better. You are like me, can't settle until it's right! (which is why I have a pile of stuff to correct) Not everyone can wear a boat neck style - I love the look of them but they strangle me too! I tried an up cycled stripey tee and I had to adjust it lots at the neckline! Where do you get your hair claws form? I loved the dolphin one! Looking forward to trying the new competition too with the Beryl jumpsuit if I get time. Keep them coming - loving the content.

God Bless you and babies!!!❤❤❤

Thanks for sharing this, I always look forward to the updates:) Love your motivation and drive, absolutely mind boggling. I saw the sketch you had for your midi dress and loved the colours you were using for the first one, and was hoping it was going to work out. Trial and error is the process, then you get what makes you happy :) I love that blackstripy top you made with the caterpillar, cute! Your new tie trousers went with it so well.

@afrayed_upcycling 10 дней назад

@afrayed_upcycling 10 дней назад

Ooo let me know what you find!

@nancisailormoy9135 10 дней назад

@@afrayed_upcycling no luck but I did order a few from Etsy yesterday coming from the UK so I’m guessing it’s more of a UK thing than here in the US. I’m also thinking I might need a serger or perhaps I could bind all my seams. What serger do you have and do you love it?

@KleinesMaunz 12 дней назад

Have you ever considered to put the label on the outside? I am not too keen of the zig zag square on the outside but if you put the label on the outside I think it will be a feature. It is cute and it shows that it is a unique designer piece that was upcycled.

@afrayed_upcycling 10 дней назад

Oo I actually like that idea! I might test it for a jacket!

@kelleyquinlan1553 12 дней назад

Love the V-Neck! Also think the sleeves on the other would work if you put a bunch of gathering at the top - just totally poofed them up. Are you planning on releasing a dress pattern of the longer dress that has sleeves? The other is too short for me ;) and I love when the towel is set below the chest not across it because of my build...waiting impatiently. Hoping some of our nice Minnesota USA weather reaches you - lots of sun here. Keep on creating - you are a gem!

@afrayed_upcycling 10 дней назад

Yeah I think a more puffy top is the solution! And maybe a square neckline with that sleeve? Ermmm maybe one day!
