    That vintage fabric and dress styles took me back to my childhood in the 70's! Sigh...

      My mother in law always smiles at these dresses as she wore them the first time around haha

    A wonderful catch up and what a weekend you are going to have! Fabulous vintage fashion and those sunglasses are the perfect addition 🤩 I look forward to seeing your finished collection for Goodwood. Last year we were at a wedding near Oxford that weekend and the heat was really ridiculous 😂 hopefully not just so hot this year! Dry and warm is perfect.
    I think I like the last fabric for your 60’s outfit but as you are going to make them both you can have a choice 😉 xx

    • @RachelBearn
      @RachelBearn  Před 4 dny +1

      Thank you so much Alison! I cannot wait for it, it’s going to be such a good weekend. I think that fabric is the right option for 60s as it will stand out in the crowd! Thank you for your lovely comment ❤️

    As a fellow dark-haired lady, the best thing I ever bought was a little at home wax kit! Smooth legs for weeks 🤣 You've got some beautiful projects planned, can't wait to see the process! X

    • @RachelBearn

      Haha thank you for the advice! I’m not brave enough for waxing but maybe one day… thank you ❤️❤️ d

    Please film a sew-along for your son de flor dupe! I think your red version will turn out wonderfully and I'd be interested to see your take on it! :)

    • @RachelBearn

    The skirt on the little women dress looks more boxy pleats (lovely) it will look lovely in that sage linen 👍

    • @RachelBearn
      @RachelBearn  Před 25 dny +1

      Yes I thought that too! Might be worth trying to do pleats instead of gathers… thank you 🩵

    We are having extreme heat warnings in California this week, so wet and cool sounds good to me. My sewing room doesn't have a/c so I have it shut up for the day so it doesn't heat up the rest of the house ( it's 84F in that room right now). So instead of sewing I am crocheting and watching sewing videos in the room that does have a/c.
    I never heard of "Little Women Atilier" and that cottage core dress is perfect! I love that sage linen for it too.

    • @RachelBearn
      @RachelBearn  Před 22 dny +1

      Oh golly! Poor you! That sounds really difficult. We had a heat wave last summer and I couldn’t do any sewing it was so hot so I totally sympathise with you. Crochet and sewing videos sounds like the best plan! Hope it cools down for you soon ❤️

      I live in Arizona...it's 110 in the shade at 10 AM; my whole house is 84 degrees! I have a ceiling fan in each room which makes it feel quite a bit better. My "sewing room" is at the front of the house where the big window is, giving wonderful light and letting in dreadful heat. I'll start sewing after dinner, when the sun starts to set, and these dresses are an inspiration! I can hardly wait for October!!!

    Hallo, new here! Love the look of your channel, will be watching every video. But i LOVE the dress your wearing in this video! Did you make it yourself? Where did you get the fabric? I’m totally in love with it ❤

    • @RachelBearn
      @RachelBearn  Před 23 dny +2

      Hello! Thank you so much ❤️ yes I did make it! The fabric is by Lewis & Irene from their memory made collection last year. I don’t know if it’s still available but maybe if you search the web a bit ❤️

  • @jennistevenson796
    @jennistevenson796 Před 15 dny

    I think the Little Women Atelier dress skirt is pleated not gathered. Which probs gives more fullness.

    • @RachelBearn
      @RachelBearn  Před 15 dny

      Yes someone else has said maybe box pleats! So will give that a try if I can ☺️

    As someone who has used sheets for sewing. I would suggest ripping the pillowcase, they don't do a good job cutting on the grain.
