    The silver dress because of the matching gloves was just so much fashion for me.The gloves really leveled up the look, and I loved that there was no slit in the front for that dress. I would totally get a local person to sew that for me. The dark silver fabric was also a good choice for it.

      For me was the opposite.

    "There's no rule against not wearing a dress."
    I laugh sadly because there was such a rule when I was in high school (late 2000's). They literally said you have to wear a dress, unless you were a lesbian going to prom with your girlfriend. I'm sure they've since changed that rule, but it was still effed up at the time.

      @@lynndoesntexist it’s not a very fun story … I had a male friend throughout high school who confessed that he liked me before senior year, and I ended up kind of going out with him for a bit. He was much more interested in the relationship than I was, but I had frighteningly low self-esteem at that point in my life and so the idea that someone was into me romantically was so impossibly exciting that I convinced myself that I liked him even though I realize now I never really did- I would have rather remained friends. It especially got awkward when he wanted to go … *ahem* … farther with the relationship- he didn’t try to pressure me or anything, he was very respectful and backed off/never brought it up again when I told him I wasn’t comfortable with that, but just knowing that that was where his mind was at really stressed me out. I had been trying to figure out how to end it when halfway through senior year my grandmother died very suddenly and my mental health took a nosedive, and so I let the relationship go on even longer because it was taking everything in me to just function. All of this came to a head when about a month before prom he surprised me at lunch in front of all our friends with flowers and balloons and asked me to prom. He was so excited and literally everyone was there, so I couldn’t tell him no, even though I didn’t want to go to prom at all, much less romantically with him. I have really bad social anxiety (which he knew, so I don’t know why he thought this would be a good idea for me) and I ended up being late to class because I was having a panic attack in the bathroom. I should have texted him that night and told him I didn’t want to go, but I was a coward about it and waited until the week before prom to finally attempt to explain things to him (at this point the situation had been so stressful for me that I had been physically making myself sick over it), and we still ended up going, but didn’t hang out together at all during it and like I said I left early because I was so uncomfortable. I still feel really guilty about the whole thing to this day- he was a really nice guy and he meant well, I was just an absolute mess senior year. He deserved much better. So yeah, not a super fun story 😅

    My sewing is far closer to the math-driven pattern analysis of Cathy Hay, the drafting of Bianca Esposito, and the stitching detail of Bernadette Banner and Nicole Rudolph. None of that prevents me in the slightest from thoroughly enjoying your videos.
    My Ukranian grandmother did not use patterns at all - they didn't exist where and when she was a girl in the early 20th century, and even if they had been available there was no money to buy them. In 1960s Canada they were affordable for her but she couldn't be bothered: she looked at some of them, took a mental picture of those she liked, and left the pattern in the store. She sewed the way you do: lay the fabric out on the floor and then cut the required shapes. It always amazed me to watch her.
    While she could use my mother's 1955-vintage Singer electric she still preferred her treadle machine. Your ironing board is also identical to hers; the only other one I've ever seen. She saw no reason to acquire new equipment when there was nothing wrong with the old.

    EDIT 2: Ayyyee it's me from '23! For anyone wondering, I wore a dress I already had instead. Prom was mid, and not really worth the $25-30 ticket (can't remember). Seeing my friends was the only redeeming quality lol 👍🏼

      😮 oh I’m sorry! I knew this was going to happen from the beginning. I’m sure you’re not alone with this. There really should be a disclaimer - no shade to the creator. It’s just a fact that these types of ´tutorials’ aren’t really for those beginning to make their own clothes. That could be stated clearer, imo. Particularly, considering it’s a video targeting high school/young people. It’s mostly entertainment.
      It’s so nice that you’re inspired by it, though!
      It takes MUCH less time for her than any beginner could realistically complete it in. More like a month than an hour.
      This is an unreasonable expectation. All the time frames given are of her own abilities with a LOT of practice making her own clothing. The difficulty level for these isn’t ranked or broken down.
      It’s a great entertainment, good fun and she gives little shortcuts and sewing hacks/tips. It’s just not a great place to start.
      There are some really helpful sites for sewing tutorials, Q & A groups for help and advice that are especially helpful.
      If you (or anyone) wants, I’ll link you a few.
      I really REALLY hope you stay inspired and develop your skills! It’s wonderful that you tried! ❤ That was really brave!
      I’d definitely love seeing updates on your progress!
      Most of the time we only see people who are skilled with thousands of sewing hours invested. It can be discouraging for people starting out to compare their abilities with people who have been sewing for years. The beginner sees only the results of skilled designers without seeing how they become that way. It’s just unrealistic.
      You know, It might be a great niche for a vlogging channel! If you keep sewing, posting progress to show actual skill acquisition! I mean, if you were interested in making a channel on it. I’d definitely subscribe!
      Cheers! Belated Congratulations on graduating and starting your sewing journey (IF you decide it’s right for you)!

    I've never laughed so hard for a tutorial. This is a mix of entertainment and superb sewing skills. ❤️❤️
