1940's Afternoon Dress : Mockup Mayhem
I'm a few days late (this was supposed to go up on Sunday) but here is the newest mockup mayhem vlog!
This is the first of many forties projects - but this is the last one you'll see for a while. I have a 1930's bonus project coming up next.
Sorry for skipping around with decades - I didn't expect enough interest in this series to justify bonus projects!

this is so interesting to see the mock up process!! Do you purposely do the "hidden" features on the outside so it's more obvious to your brain when you work on the final garment? It's a really neat idea
I do too! Keep them coming! I love your videos! I am so enjoying being a Patreon. I will always do my best to be a Patreon supporting the youth who are sewing and creating... Keep the dream alive.
I enjoy your mock-up videos. I love the fabric choice for this mock-up. :)
I love the style of these mockup videos - they seem very relaxed and it looks like you enjoy them too.
they are a lot of fun! :)
when you iron the paper patterns, what temperature is the iron?
I usually use a pretty high setting, it's just uncoated tissue paper!
LOVE the Dr. Seuss fabric!
How do you cut so evenly? When I cut a pattern out the scissors jump and I get a ragged cut.
With some fabrics its inevitable (chiffon, china silk, charmeuse). Cottons and taffetas don't tend to give me much trouble. But sharp scissors and pinning within an inch from the edge of the fabric really helps!
