you make sewing so interesting. ..thanks

@IoanaPristoleanu 7 лет назад

I don't even have a sewing machine or half the things you use in your videos, but i still love watching them! :D thanks for sharing!

@sallyavery9459 6 лет назад

some times hand sewing is better.

@laurigiepmans 5 лет назад

You can do everything by hand, you just need needle and treath (dont know how to write that haha). It just takes longer but you can still do it 💪🏻 All the stuff she uses makes it easier, but you dont need them

@ninacofield7423 5 лет назад

me too !

@yuigirl2 7 лет назад

Use freezer paper for stencils. You draw your design, cut it out and then iron the paper down( sticky side on the right side of the fabric or else it will stick to your iron) then use fabric paint. When you peel off the paper it should have a crisper line than regular non stick stencils 😎

@coolirpa 7 лет назад

i love your vision april! i would never be able to look at this stuff and come up with these amazing creations!

@coolirpa 7 лет назад

Thank you!!

@TheLuluTrue 7 лет назад

I love how the lace gives the illusion of the bodice being a corset on top of the skirt! that's really cool.

@CrowShadow 7 лет назад

One of the things i like about your videos is that you include close-ups of you actually sewing on the machine ... it really helps to understand what you are doing.

@EzmayGraceMusic 7 лет назад

I literally have no interest in sewing or thrifting or making clothes, nothing. but i just LOVE your videos! its so satisfying to watch.

@Gorkha_plant 7 лет назад

Please do some more costume transformations for Halloween season!!!

@ladyshkspre 7 лет назад

I've said this before but I do NOT sew and have no plans to learn (I still haven't quite figured out why I enjoy watching you sew so much, lol). That being said, I am always AMAZED and entertained by your videos. This one turned out fabulous and so very similar to the dress from the movie. I hope you win the contest!

@sewscoundrel5087 7 лет назад

For stencils, use self-adhesive book cover. Draw the design onto it, then cut out with a knife, remove the back and attach the book cover onto the fabric. This way it doesn't move around and you get a crisp line on your design. :)

@laura987123 7 лет назад

You can also buy re-positional spray adhesive which you can spray on the back of any stencil you want.

@Boredchinchilla 7 лет назад

Sew Scoundrel I was thinking maybe make a stamp with either a rubber stamp kit (where you heat and mold the stamp material and can reuse it), or even make a potato stamp- carve the design into a potato and use it as a stamp.

@CrowShadow 7 лет назад

Your costume turned out really cute.

@sophiam878 7 лет назад

Awesome, just showed my sister. She loves Tangled.

@SeychellesLover 7 лет назад

hi work with paint a lot. I would of cut the stencils out, also you need to wash it off every few times. it was smearing because you zigzagged across the dress, if you went from right to left it would of helped (although you were looking for over all Balance and it would been hard jot crowding them that way.

@astridgrabner2836 7 лет назад

This is very pretty! For stecilling on textiles it's always a good idea to use temporarily adhesive glue spray (or glue on stencils), it usually makes the result much cleaner.

@evae.1482 7 лет назад

Could you do more Princess 👸🏼 Costumes? Like sleeping beauty

@ncdmusicinspires 7 лет назад

Okay I haven't even finished the video, but I had to comment because you are literally so adorable and this costume is just soooo crafty!!!

@cecmerc6197 7 лет назад

Your face expression when you are done is priceless! I can really see that you enjoys what you get! Congrats!

@TearsBehindSmiles 7 лет назад

When I need to paint on a stencil, I usually use freezer paper. You just draw or trace your design onto the matte side of the paper, cut it out with an x-acto, and then iron it into place on your garment with the shiny, waxed side down. The iron will melt the wax enough that it will adhere to the fabric so you get a nice clean edge when you stipple the paint on with a foam brush, but it peels off easily without leaving any residue. I use this method for making custom t-shirts all the time.

@piarabounsell 7 лет назад

I don't know why this reminded me of the gypsy Esmeralda 💜

@Dancingqueen2700 7 лет назад

I see it! The skirt color matches Esmeralda more imo.

@Quntah888 7 лет назад

I love Esmeralda! She is so underrated though.. April, could you please make a Esmeralda costume someday? 💕😊

@healthkickchicks3903 7 лет назад

You should do a mermaid gown tutorial out of an old prom dress that would be soooo cool

@zencat55 7 лет назад

stencil before it's sewn together and use a stencil brush - it really helps! I do lots of tshirts. trace the pattern on to freezer paper, cut it out and iron on to fabric. That's the best way.

@autumnhahn4730 7 лет назад

Gorgeous as usual! For stenciling, I'd use a stencil brush, which has a compact head that is usually round in shape and tap (not rub/drag) the paint on so it doesn't smudge.

@chicksstarr 7 лет назад

Try using a stippling brush for stenciling and make sure to dab it on, it is better to do 2 thin coats of paint that 1 thick coat x

@trumpetgal98 7 лет назад

PLEASE DO MORE COSTUMES!!!! THAT LOOKS AMAZING

@GiraffinMeCrazy6834 7 лет назад

You should totally do Prince Philip and Aurora from Sleeping Beauty! Bonus points if you somehow incorporate the color change XD Love your videos!

@johannemoehgberg8077 7 лет назад

A cinderella costume would be awesome!

@julia-wm2hr 7 лет назад

omg that first dress is mine!! I got it from American girl doll haha!!

@manakstudio97 7 лет назад

really

@Quntah888 7 лет назад

I always wondered how it would be to see her use an old clothing item that was once yours... Would you regret donating it, seeing her make something fantastic out of it? 🤔😅

@mybabybeary 7 лет назад

I have that dress but for my dolls xD

@soffialv2209 7 лет назад

I usually use a contrasting color contact paper, you can print a mirror image of what you want on the back and cut it out... no leakage at all, super easy to use, quite cheap and leaves no residue on the fabric

@BaileyRezman 7 лет назад

This was so cool, you should make this a mini series for Halloween. Great video as always :)

@laura987123 7 лет назад

Ya that would be awesome!

@nikkigrossman4244 7 лет назад

No way! I was inspired by your transformations and transformed my own Rapunzel costume for my spring break trip to Disneyland last year! So cool to see your take on it. :)

@sofialib920 7 лет назад

I actually like the pink pajama top on its own but omg you did it again! It looks AMAZING😻

@kniller101 7 лет назад

you could always use a dark purple to touch up where the paint smudged

@Lrussel5 7 лет назад

I really hope you enter some of your other costumes too. Sailer Moon and BB8 stand out for me.

@hinatachan96 6 лет назад

She's insane. I ADORE IT.

@ThePackQueen 7 лет назад

I am always so impressed with your interpretations of character's costumes! great job!

@TheAgent377 7 лет назад

I made a rapunzel costume a few years ago too! my dress was ok (not as lovely as yours!) but the piece de resistance was the wig, over 40 total hours of work went into it. It's just over 5 feet long, and about 6-8 inches in diameter. flowers braided all through it. the works. It's a little bit tangled (lol) now, but that first year it was seriously remarkable. everyone kept wanting to touch it :P

@samanthamargeson 7 лет назад

The sleeves looked fine! Great job!

@jyriggs 7 лет назад

I love your channel! I have been sewing since I was little and my mom made clothes out of all kinds of stuff. There were some things such as the sleeves that could have been done easier for you if you had sewn the hem on the sleeve, attached the lace, attached that part to the upper sleeve and then sown up the side in one seem, then attached it to the strap before attaching it all to the bodice. It makes the seems neater, and saves time and frustration.

@kapsican 7 лет назад

You're such a cute Rapunzel! ^^

@suzyplays729 3 года назад

My two year old sister says you look so pretty, great work 💖💖💖

@awsomeabacus9674 7 лет назад

that purple dress was so so cute though!

@LibrarianLauren 7 лет назад

For the stencil: first starch and iron the heck out of your fabric, then use a spray adhesive on your stencil every time you put it down. You don't want it to lift AT ALL. Then, the sponge applicator you used is perfect.

@iMeMyself60 7 лет назад

This is the kind of princess dress I want to sew! :)

@thedeja6227 7 лет назад

Love Rapunzel! Good job

@muneezashah 7 лет назад

You never fail to impress

@theglamourghoul5308 7 лет назад

Wow! This came out great! Btw, I thought that it was so lovely of you to tell everyone to join the competition that you're going to enter yourself. For that and for your amazing talent, I hope you win☺

@ruthannemarie2668 6 лет назад

I don't even sew but I love your voice so much I can't stop binging

@berrytale 7 лет назад

could you make a video about your thrifting process specifically, like how you choose the clothing, what ideas you get when you see the clothing and what you take into account before purchasing the clothes? I think it would be really interesting and I would love to see!

@AuShunn 7 лет назад

OMG YOU HAVE TO DO MOREEEE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!!!

@LAGirl-hx7fo 7 лет назад

congratulations on The Real April. Love all your thrifted transformations

@ellembee639 7 лет назад

Good luck in the contest! It's so pretty!

@StaceyLeeDIYs 7 лет назад

Love it! It turned out really cute! I like the stenciled detailing.

@ProfessorSassypants 7 лет назад

This is seriously such a cool transformation

@lunalounder6 7 лет назад

The next time you use a stencil try using a smaller sponge and clean the stenciled and wash the sponge after every use, it takes a while but the result are very good and cleaner. I love your videos.

@Bexinmo 7 лет назад

That was really awesome!

@lampshade5995 7 лет назад

April, this is such a fantastic idea and execution! The only bummer about any of it is (not your fault at all) that I am slow with uptake when it comes to sewing and I wish I understood better. Tangled is in my favorite animated movies list, so you get extra points for that!

@Grace-by8hq 7 лет назад

i know you have already done a belle transformation dress but you should do one to fit yourself and base it off belles blue dress in the new 2017 beauty and the beast because it's gorgeous! The whole look is just so aesthetic and the way she tucks it up at the side is cute too

@meredithkoh2128 7 лет назад

My Favourite Favouriteeee princess!!!!! What a lovely transformation! How I wish you could make a rapunzel dress for me for Halloween! Haha

@JamieThrowsConfetti 7 лет назад

For stencils I take a small paintbrush and use the stencil as a guideline instead of dabbing with a sponge. It gives more control. Or you can also take a white colored pencil, fill in the stencil pattern you want on your fabric and then "free hand" paint on top of that. This method allows you to make slight changes to the stencil pattern as well (if you want certain things bigger, thinner, etc)

@veronicaasher5406 7 лет назад

Can you do a video where you buy cheap clothes/dresses on the internet and make them look like the original picture. Like when people buy popular expensive dresses and then when they get them they look nothing like the original

@leafletanon 7 лет назад

omg it turned out so cute!

@HeatherHandmade 4 года назад

What a cool dress! I love the transformation!

@ScarletHeather76 7 лет назад

I thumbs up your videos before I even watch them because I know I'm going to love them.

@cecilyplum845 7 лет назад

For the stencils, you could try using a small amount of paint, ans do it two/ three times, waiting to dry between layers to get definition and fine detail which could be lost if a most delicate stencil material is used.

@hayleyw7250 7 лет назад

omg I remember seeing that dress in old americangirl catalogs! :D

@astridfabian210 6 лет назад

So amazing! Definitely my favourite transformation episode till now:)

@placeclevertitlehere 7 лет назад

I'm always so amazed by your work! Wish I had your talent.

@craftyasonline 7 лет назад

@noeliakline 7 лет назад

My girls would go crazy for this dress

@infotinav 7 лет назад

Wow what a beautiful costume! great job!

@Axeo19 7 лет назад

there's stencil specific brushes that have stiffer bristles. also use less paint so it dries faster and won't smudge. don't lift the stencil so soon as that will cut down on chances of smudging also 😊

@linonations 7 лет назад

loved it April!! I don't have words to explain how creative u r!!! lovely job.. please continue amazing us!! thanks💋💖xoxo

@awsomeabacus9674 7 лет назад

@jasmariea8845 7 лет назад

You did a great job. Please do more costumes like Elsa and something crazy like maleficent.

@colleengriffin4593 6 лет назад

when it comes to stencils, you want to pick out a soft but durable brush. foam brushes are meant for covering bigger scale area's. another type of brush you should be familiar with is the fabric brush or pen. but get the ones you can fill yourself and pour in your favorite acrylic, or dye you wish to use, ect. then stencil away. also the thicker the paper, the longer lasting the stencil. Don't be afraid to use your stencil on a piece of cardboard, then cut out the design you wish. this way you can select your pattern, use it multiple times, and keep the life of the original stencil longer. I know it's tedious, but worth it.

@amnah.1194 7 лет назад

You are so talented ! I feel like going on project runway will be great and I'm sure you have a great chance of winning !

@lain5900 7 лет назад

My suggestion for stenciling- I find that it helps if you use a sticker type stencil, or you can use spray adhesive to the stencil. 'Dry brushing' will prevent the 'bleeding' effect so it's better to build your colour in layers. If you want to look farther into stenciling, I recommend "Stencil 101" by Ed Roth. Hope that helps you. Awesome turnout though! I love your work and am inspired by you! Keep it up!
