Join us for the Fabric Science mini course: foundationsrev...
To clarify, there is no specific sign up for the course alone - course materials will appear for ALL paid members, both Academy and Essentials, on Saturday May 25th. Simply sign up as an Academy or Essentials member of Foundations Revealed, and you're all set.
Guess why I'm spending a gazillion years working on such a long winded, samey project... In this film I'll share some thoughts on coping with major changes in your life, now that I’ve been on this crazy, unusual adventure for a year.
This is also the video in which I make the first major mistake of the project. (I did promise you that you’d get the whole story, warts and all.)
AND, I’ll introduce the new Fabric Science mini course at Foundations Revealed!
Thank you, once again, for being a part of this epic journey!
Love, Cathy

A friend of mine was a missionary. She travelled for years. Everywhere she went she had a little quilt big enough for the seat of a chair, a couple of small things to put on it, a candle and her mug. She called that her home base. It was the first thing to unpack and last to go back in the bag.

You have turned this project into something so very special for complete strangers to appreciate from afar. This garmet (or pieces of a garmet in the making) is exquisite and lovely, the craftsmanship alone deserves applause. However, I appreciate the story and journey you have shared while sewing art into this majestic velvet coat. Thank you for sharing ALL of this "Wonderful" with us. I do hope you share with us again and again whenever you feel comfortable to do so 💗

Hi, Cathy. I am so happy for you that you are doing well. Beautiful work, as always. I do have a bit of a suggestion though. I keep my mistakes that have hand work on them for as a specific memory. I am careful to store them in a cake or cookie tin if they will fit without a fold, so sometimes I store them in a small square box mean for collectors silk scarves. I then use them as repairs for tears or made thread bare by love. It use to be a pair of jeans, or a denim jacket. I love seeing them put to use as accent patch repairs. I must admit I didn't think of this because if you remember, I am the type of person that enjoys making repairs as invisible as possible. My oldest daughter gave me this idea and it has it's places. I've had mistakes large enough to embellish a garment as the cuffs or tips of a collar. Save the mistakes!

The panel is absolutely beautiful, Cathy. I can relate to your stress of moving so much. I grew up in a Military family. Once we moved 3 times in one year. My Barbie doll and her clothes were my "anchor". I look forward to your next video.

I decided to finish up a knitted washcloth today. I started it a few weeks ago as one of my beginner knitting projects, but I wanted to get it done and off my needles. Had to start a new skein in the very middle - fine, fine - but I got a few rows after that and noticed I'd dropped a couple of stitches. Did NOT feel like learning how to pick up stitches, so I was like... "Well, I WAS going to make it bigger, but nope, I'm done." Immediately started decreasing to finish. XD Even the most mindless of projects have mistakes, and Herculean tasks like this one even more so. Here's hoping this will be the only hiccup for your coat.

Good on ya, lady!!!

I am now 63. When I was younger, I would just get up and move or go on a road trip or whatever, I didn’t care. I have discovered in the last few years how much of our own destiny we control. I have actively made changes in my life that caused me to be more comfortable and happy. Now that I have things arranged the way I like them, I would be much less amenable to big changes. However, that does not mean that there will not be any. The greatest challenge to me of living on the Earth as a human is accepting that everything changes all the time. I am like you, though, I have discovered simple, mundane behaviors, and objects that keep me grounded. If and when the next big change comes, I will need to remember that.

@mylifewithmarmalade4624 4 месяца назад

Fellow high desert dweller here. Everything is different when you’re dealing with less air pressure, low humidity, and often very wide differences in temperature season to season. Lots of moisturizer, lots of water to drink, and if you’re at all prone to sinus issues like I am, a neti pot will be your best friend. Furniture (or embroidery frame) wise lots of time for things to adjust when they arrive to that climate, retightening screws after it’s been there a while, and consider lightly oiling unfinished wood to help keep it from becoming so dry it gets brittle. Fabric wise I know my needlework projects always get a bit wonky (puckering/sagging/seems crooked) if I travel somewhere more humid with them and then come home to the dry. I’ll usually take them out of the frame, lightly steam them with a clothing steamer and leave them flat for 24 hours to let all the fibers calm down, and then I can restretch them on the frames and they’ll be fine, but the first few times it happened it gave me a good scare.

Oooh, GORGEOUS! And you finished a panel! I’ve seen the original and followed your journey toward reproducing it, but this is when your coat and its embellishment have come to life. The light in that room, as you cut from one camera to the other, showcases the changeability of the velvet beautifully. I must confess: I’m totally smitten now with the fabric. I have a mad fantasy of sneaking in to spirit that pesky corner out of your life so you’re never forced to think what the lack of an eraser months ago hath wrought…I would give it a good home and pet it often.

@Angela-en6oh 4 месяца назад

Hello Kathy. Well, I am so pleased you have now finished the panel. It really doesn’t matter that there is a bit of a “mistake”. It becomes part of the history of the project; its progress; the uniqueness that is an integral part of your combined journey and, as such, should be embraced and treasured. Just enjoy the ride!!

@carolreid9755 3 месяца назад

Thank you Cathy for your video. There is something magical about you making a little error as it gives us mere mortals encouragement that we all make slips from time to time. It is really obvious that you are becoming more settled as not only is your voice getting stronger but this little error has not meant the end of the world and you still see the way forward. My great aunt years ago worked in London in a well known fashion house and she always said many a garment had a slight error that no-one ever saw ,it added to it's uniqueness .

I’m autistic so I’m all about routine and sameness like with foods, clothes, activities, and I struggle a lot with change. It’s always a challenge when there’s big changes like starting a new job or moving or going to university. I also depend on little things that feel like anchors, like eating the same food, watching the same videos, playing the same video games. It does help give you some sense of normalcy amidst all the change

I hear you - as I watched this back during editing it occurred to me how much this would resonate with my autistic friends. You know so well how much routine helps create calm!

This video came at a perfect time for me! I am retiring from my career of 25 years (plus), and my husband and I are buying a new house nearer our daughter and selling our home of 32 years. We will be bouncing between the 2 locations (500 miles apart) over the course of the summer and fall. I love the idea of carrying something that establishes a home base wherever we are!

@MaryanneNZ 4 месяца назад

I imagine you are well onto the next panel by now, and it looks incredible, I was going to suggest tilting the triangle a little to line up the stitches you've done. A slight change in angle wouldn't upset the nap that much. But I do feel for you!

Miss Cathy, I love your videos!!!! And the piece looks beautiful, I can’t wait to see the cost finished. I’m just very intrigued on, once it’s a finished piece of clothing, how is it supposed to be stored? You can’t hang it the closet with the rest of your wardrobe, the flowers will get crushed, won’t they?

@TudorositiesbyMaureen 3 месяца назад

7:30 yes. When my parents died two years apart. Then one of my siblings also passed away a couple months after my father passed away. There was all this change all at once plus grief on top. Altogether I lost 50% of my nuclear childhood family in 30 months. So I had several doll projects going on at the same time. Which is normally what I do to keep my interest I will do about two or three projects at the same time and bounce between them. My dolls were a respite of familiarity in my life and consistency. While I didn’t have while all of this change happened in two and one half years time. Grounding and therapeutic.

I have been in your place and I know what worked for me and I know my faith is very strong but faith may be who I am. Sometime I see faith in doing art is easier for me to feel like I belong. So I forget the same person is me. And that helps me when I find it hard to talk.

The coat is coming along beautifully! Would your course help me even though I do not do costumes? I am a seamstress and I like to make my own clothes.

Hey there. I absolutely adore your work. And it’s so incredibly valuable to be part of this journey. Though, I have a concern - when you made the pattern of the coat, you added a seam allowance when you cut it out. You remembered to remove it before drawing the flowers on right? Otherwise you might have embroidered within the seam allowance which won’t be shown.

@CathyHay 4 месяца назад

Yes, worry not! I cut the paper pattern without seam allowance, drew it out on the muslin like that, and then cut with a seam allowance. We're all good. Thank you for looking out for me!

Cathy of course knows herself best, and I really get why this change might feel adventurous. But I also belive these things eventually come with a cost, especially for someone I imagine would be quite sensitive / receptive to changing stimuli and environments. My inflammatory disease loves rutine and hates things like changes in circadian rhythm, diet, increased stress etc. The body has a wisdom of its own.

A year ago I left everything behind and moved to a different country with meager language skills and equally meager finances. The day after I landed I celebrated my 70th birthday and started my new life. The stress of such an upheaval is real and I’ve been looking for a special project where I can lose myself and the stress in the creation of something special. For me that will be hand sewing a lightweight summer quilt from fabrics with such vibrant colors and patterns that I can’t help but smile every time I see them. Congratulations on landing in Colorado! It is a beautiful state and I miss it.
