I agree about your lovely curled hair!
It is always nice when you pop up on my screen. You are both educational and soothing.
❤️ Thank you so much!
I love walking skirts. So comfy
Yes!
I used the tutorial for the self drafted walking skirt and have made at least a half dozen so far. They have become a staple in my daily wardrobe and get mixed with a combination of historical, vintage and modern pieces. I used the pattern to make a flannel petticoat which I wear with it in the winter that acts as lining. I am definitely pro walking skirt!
That's so fantastic! ❤️❤️
a walking skirt has been on my radar for a very long time. seeing your comparisons of fabric types and fabric widths has been an enormous help.
Now I have choices - a couple of light weight slightly narrower skirts and a variety of petticoats in light ,medium and may be a slightly warmer for cooler weather.
Thank you for today's video. Australia's weather is very changeable, only as warm or cooler as the layers you put on here.
I'm so glad you found the video helpful!
A winter walking skirt and a summer walking skirt - I like both of them for different reasons, the two of them have both the colours for the seasons as well as the weight and fullness - they both work beautifully.
I agree! ❤️
Hello Rebecca, i hope i dont´t sound creepy but you look lovely with your hair open.
I do not own a walking skirt yet, but would love to make one (with pocket), I´d probably wear it to the office, too.
Thank you! I love walking skirts!
I also prefer to make unlined skirts (I wear long 1930s skirts every day). As a Texas girl, it's useful to be able to adapt one skirt to the weather by wearing different petticoats underneath.
My first historical projects (two 1890s walking skirts) were lined with a heavy gauze because I didn't know what I was doing and it sucks! 😂 I then made a nicer Edwardian trumpet skirt that was flatlined in brown cotton sateen, and it's okay, but definitely can't be worn from April to September.
I agree! ❤️
Interessantíssimo vídeo. Gratidão por compartilhar!🌺
Thank you!
Thanks for sharing! I love walking skirts but the only one I ever made had a problem with the hem facing flaring outwards, and it always looks like I’m wearing a bell. It took so much time and fabric I
Haven’t had the heart to try another.
Also, your hair looks so nice curled! 😁
Thank you! ❤️
