Aww, thank you! 🥰 Glad it was helpful! 🌸🎨🧵🧥

Absolutely!! Beading is awesome! 🥰🌸🎨🪡🧵

That's awesome! Glad to hear it. I feel like I'm still new to beading, too. There's always new things to learn (and mistakes to make!) 🥰🎨🌸🧵🧥

My pleasure! It took me forever to film. I thought I was never going to find a good enough spot for the camera. But, I got there in the end. Sort of. 🥰 🧵🧥🌸🎨

Thanks! 🥰 You are so welcome! 🌸🧵🐞🎀

Thanks! You’re welcome 😊🎀🧵🧥🎨

Thanks so much! 🌸🥰🍃🧥🌸

Glad it was helpful! Yep, the camera gets very confused about what it's supposed to focus on because the bead stays still and the hands are in constant movement. It assumes it should always focus on the moving things, but I got there in the end.

@@PerfectJacketthe filming looks good I think you did an amazing job I empathize cuz I know how hard it is!!!

Thank you! 🌸🥰🎨🍃🎀

Thank you! Happy beading!! 🥰🧵🪡🧥🎨

Aww, thank you! Oooh, I can't knit. You can make your own sweaters. That's so cool. With beading, if you are doing really heavy beading close together, I would only do every second or third bead and then go back over the area three times, so I don't need to tie off after each bead because each of my threads will be quite balanced and light. But, if you do it the fast fashion way and do every single heavy bead on one thread then you do need to tie off each bead because there is a good chance one or several of the beads will break off, and you want the rest to survive. Happy beading! 🥰🎨🧵🪡

@@PerfectJacket Thanks for the explanation!

My pleasure. All the best with your beading and embroidery. 🥰🧵🎨🪡

@@PerfectJacket Thanks!!!

And have you ever made one and wore it without the lining? Or is that just way to risky as the inside threads might get caught on something like a ring while you put on the jacket ?

That's okay, I didn't cover it in this video as I have. whole episode on cleaning and caring for embellished jackets. All expensive jackets have a lining, usually silk because it's so long lasting and relatively robust. Lightly beaded jacket can be taken it to a specialist dry cleaner. For the heavily beaded jackets it's easier and cheaper to just carefully unpick the silk lining, launder that and hand-stitch it back in. You can spot clean the outer jacket, as required but I'm the only one who wears my jackets (and cleans and repairs them) so I quite careful with them.

@@PerfectJacketoh yes thank you I did watch that video you made! I guess the part that confused me is if you do this process even to the sleeve inner lining when you clean them. Thanks so much

Oh, No, I don't do that dressmaking thing where you make a lined vest then attach lined sleeves. I use the tailoring method where you make a full outer jacket and a full (with sleeves) silk lining jacket then sew the lining in. The entire lining (inc sleeves) comes out when you cut one lot of stitching. The Vogue V7975 jacket is made this way. The instructions are very clear.
