Welcome to another sewing vlog! This week, I have a tutorial for the world's easiest circle skirt. And after that, we're returning to #historicalhalloween2020 for more work on the 1910's Hussif costume. This time, we're embellishing the dress, and making the apron and giant needle accessories.

USE A ROUND TABLECLOTH!!! I feel like this was the loudest Duh! I've ever received, E V E R! 🙈 Now I'll be looking for circle tablecloths in every store.😅 I'm short so length is not a problem, BONUS!

Ooh, lucky you! It's so much easier to find the smaller ones. You'll have skirts galore!

I know the main thing about your channel is about your sewing/crafty projects, but I just want to compliment you on the editing of your video, the use of music, and the addition of kitty Dora! The way you synced up when your ads comes on when you finish speaking, not in the middle of the sentence. (chef kiss) It may seem silly to mention all this so you, but you are making content one wants to watch and not gets taken out of it by noticing show shaky your camera is or how loud your music is compared to the volume of your speaking voice. BTW ... I totally get your feelings about not only dealing with the pandemic but all the fires on the West coast and just like you're happy to make your videoes, we are glad to have them to watch. Please stay safe.

Oh my gosh, thank you so much! I have so many doubts about my videoing/editing skills, so your comment honestly means a lot.

What a great idea using a circular table cloth. I sew heaps of circle skirts for children's s costumes, and hemming them is a real chore. Note: we sew all our circular skirts with an elastic waistband, so that they fit a number of differently sized kids. Instead of sewing the elastic to the top of the skirt, we sew on a waistband, and then thread the elastic through the waistband. (We leave the gap in the waistband were we thread through the elastic open, so we can adjust the elastic to fit a number of different waist sizes).

@LadyRebeccaFashions 3 года назад

I used to do waistbands that way, too, and for multi-size costumes, that works really great, though I find that the elastic tends to twist, and sometimes the fabric casing can look really bunchy. Ever since Joanns started selling the wide flat waistband elastic, I have pretty much switched to this method (since it just has to fit me anyway). It makes for a very clean look.

Use the circle you cut out for the waist to make a patch pocket!! Although, applique leaf shaped pockets in fabrics that match the leaves would also be VERY cute haha

@LadyRebeccaFashions 3 года назад

I actually played with that a bit, both as a single large pocket (which I didn't love), and two smaller pockets, but if I matched the leaf pattern, then the pockets wouldn't be even on each side, and that would drive me crazy. I have thought about a leaf-shaped pocket, too, but haven't played with it yet.

Cat help! Yup, you know you like the help when you start considering a decoy ironing surface! Last year I had a DUH moment when I turned a round table cloth into a Christmas tree skirt! Love the Hussif costumes! I just started designing mine, thanks to you!

@LadyRebeccaFashions 3 года назад

Lol, yep. I haven't had to give her a decoy yet, but I do wind up transferring her from my sewing chair to the table and back all the time, depending on what I need to use. ;) And I've heard of people turning Christmas Tree skirts into wearable skirts as well, though generally I think those wind up a lot shorter. But the three are still pretty interchangeable. Good luck on your costume!

@doglover1neo 3 года назад

For a too short circle skirt / table cloth you can add trim to the hem! If trimming the hem is not an option, adding a placket with hooks and eyes at the waist. For a safer/comfortable needle option is eva foam rods. They are soft and flexible, so sitting and walking would be more pleasant than wooden rods.

@LadyRebeccaFashions 3 года назад

But then you're adding work to the super simple project! ;) Good to know about the foam rods. I did wind up trying out sitting in these, and though my lap totally went away, they didn't stab me!

@FlybyStardancer 3 года назад

I was going to suggest trim too! And if you get one with the edges finished, it only adds a little more sewing to the project. :)

@az_twist6267 3 года назад

What a cool idea for a circle skirt. I've got to try it! By the way, if I were going to make giant needles, I'd probably use cheap wooden chopsticks instead of dowels. They already have a tapering shape, and are probably easier to drill through. (If you want bigger ones, there are large cooking chopsticks that are bigger than the regular ones.)

Someone on instagram mentioned that she has used oval ones by cutting the two rounded ends off and just seaming them together. Might be worth trying!

I clicked on your vlog for the easiest circle skirt instructions. I am subscribing for the adorable Dora content. What's a Hussif?

@LadyRebeccaFashions 3 года назад

Hahaha, thanks! A hussif is a little folded up sewing kit, made of fabric, and containing all your little sewing needs.

I mentioned #historicalhalloween2020 in my last video 😊 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-fT8yvr8y1WI.html (I think it was min 11:05, if you don't watch the whole thing. 😁)

You forgot to add on the width of the elastic you are using for the waist, which looks to be a 2" wide elastic which would have made your original 27" up to 29".

the dowel "needles" - pencil sharpener? at least for the 4 small ones. for future reference, now, of course.

@LadyRebeccaFashions 3 года назад

Honestly, I did think about it, but it would only really help with the very tip of the needle (and that's only if it would fit in my eye crayon sharpener, since it definitely is too wide for a standard pencil sharpener). The very tip is actually not that difficult to sand -- it's the 4" or so above the tip that was way more difficult!

@@LadyRebeccaFashions oh i see. it was hard to tell in the video, but i was thinking that it might would fit the sharpeners that are made for the kindergarten "fat" pencils. nonetheless, i think you did an awesome job with the whole project. and i enjoyed the skirt and thought it looked way better than i imagined it would when i first saw it at the beginning. for me, since i'm not a complete novice sewer, i think i would cut two side seams to make pockets, because pockets = life. right? lol

@LadyRebeccaFashions 3 года назад

@@Midlife_Manical_Mayhem Yeah, I'm still thinking I might add patch pockets!

*subscribes for cat sewing content* I loveee the measuring tape waistband sooooo much!!!

@ancientswordrage 2 года назад

You say it needs to fit your hip, but I guess if your waist is larger that should be what you go by?

@LadyRebeccaFashions 2 года назад

Yep, in that case, go with your waist measurement.

@@LadyRebeccaFashions thanks! She is not a skirt person, but if I can attach it to a bodice and make a dress for her I'm in business! Thanks again!

Is that a friction highlighter you're using for marking?

@LadyRebeccaFashions 3 года назад

It is! They're my favorite marking pens.

@barbaraferron7994 2 года назад

Two inches difference is standard for elastic waist but shouldn't it be more for plus sizes?

@LadyRebeccaFashions 2 года назад

I think it would depend on how squishy you are.

@barbaraferron7994 2 года назад

I mean that 2" off of a 30" waist is a big difference in % than 2" off a 50" waist.

I'm new to the channel, and diving into old videos... How tall are you? And what was the size of that tablecloth? Please... To give me a starting place. Thanks

@nixhixx 3 года назад

Ooops... you said how tall you are a bit later ;)

@LadyRebeccaFashions 3 года назад

I wish I could remember how wide the tablecloth was! Basically, you want one that has a diameter that is the length of skirt you want, x2, plus the diameter of your waist measurement.
