 Three two one. Hi you guys. I'm Lindsay and welcome back to my channel inside the Hymn today Don't be mad, but we are combining makes and plans for the month of Well makes of November and plans for December simply because I Didn't really make that much not enough to warrant its own video It would be like a 30-second video, which I know you guys don't want So we're combining makes and plans that I kind of feel like those two things go hand in hand as you know from my Previous makes videos. I was sewing up a storm like that one month I had like 10 or 12 different things that I had made so it only made sense that like the brakes got pushed and Everything kind of came to a bit of a screeching halt that has a lot to do with the holidays a lot to do with the weather here A lot to do with my schedule So I just really wasn't sewing as much as I had been which is fine I don't need to make 12 things a month every single month. That would just be insane But like just was not really feeling super motivated to do my Works in progress then because those are all like spring time clothes And it was just getting colder here, and I know I wouldn't be able to wear them So the motivation was lost there And then I started going down a path and I couldn't get off the path I was just very very focused so the only thing that I made is for muslins of Ginger jeans and I knew I've talked to you guys about pants me and pants We don't get along ready to wear pants hate me and thus far Sewing pants wasn't that much better But I made a commitment after I won the ginger jeans party contest on Instagram or giveaway wasn't really a contest I didn't have to do anything special just Entered and followed and liked and commented or something that I was gonna give it an honest go and so I did and I Ended up needing to make four different muslins to get to a place Well, I made three muslins out of muslin and then made a fourth pair out of the denim that I'm going to use Just to see how the stretch denim Acted in the pattern because you know the regular muslin fabric is not stretchy at all I just wanted to make a muslin there out of the denim to Kind of like just basing it all into place just to see if it was gonna work if the Alterations I had made work on the regular muslin. We're gonna work in the denim to wow Why was that so complicated to explain? So that's really all I have to show for it I'm not going to talk too much about the ginger jeans and the alterations I made Because I just did so much. I mean obviously four muslins is a lot of altering And I just want to give it Its own video I learned a ton in the process like a lot I actually feel like I could tackle any pants pattern now Which is crazy, but I just know which alterations I need for my body And I know how to identify them and I can explain all of that much better in a full Video dedicated just to the ginger jeans as a side note I did also order the Ames pattern from cashmirette cashmirette is a plus-size Curvy girl pattern company So I'm interested to to compare the two so I will do a video just about ginger jeans and the alterations I had to make for me For that and then I'll do a separate video comparing ginger jeans and Ames jeans and Kind of maybe give some input as to which one I thought I think might be better depending on which fitting issues you typically have if you're like me for me it was front thigh was huge and Full seat is huge And then a bunch of other little adjustments. So once I get the Ames jeans, I hope that's actually what they're called Yeah, Ames jeans. Okay good So once I get the Ames jeans I'll be able to look at the pattern pieces and tell if they are gonna be more Accommodating in the seat or more accommodating in the front thigh and just say who knows maybe they're very similar and You know if you have specific issues like me, which which is the front thigh and the full seat It doesn't really matter which of the two patterns you get, but maybe they will be different I know that the Ames jeans does cater toward Choosing either an apple shape or pear shape, which is kind of cool But I don't know what that's going to mean in terms of the actual pattern design So all that to say stay tuned. I have a lot more information coming about jeans for curvier pear shaped People like me. I am in no way a fitting expert. So I'm not going to be able to help Really that much, but I am going to be able to tell you what I did Why I did it and how I did it and hopefully that will be helpful to some of you out there. So That's my spiel about makes And then for plans, okay, so for December I have my Kali fabrics blog post that I'll be putting up on the Well, I'll be sending to them on the 15th. I'm not sure when they'll post it but for that is a New Year's Eve outfit and I'm super excited about it. I've already sewn part of it and It's turning out exactly like I wanted Some of you are gonna be a little freaked out and think okay. It's official. She's lost it But I haven't there's a method to my madness. I have a plan and I think it's I think it's gonna be Really really cute and really awesome. So I'll show you the fabric It is this Rainbow sequence. Yes, you are seeing that, right? Rainbow and then these little itty bitty bitty bitty sequins Um So I love this fabric. It's exactly what I was looking for. I'm so happy. I found it at Kali and Just can't wait to show you what I'm gonna be making. I have a whole outfit Maybe with only this fabric maybe with other fabrics I don't want to tell you too much information about it I did post a little bit about it on my Instagram stories if you follow me there You probably have a clue But if not what are you waiting for you should be following me on Instagram so that you can get all the insider info as I'm working on projects So that is a plan that is going to be up on the Kali blog soon Another plan that I have for December is some holiday decor So I got the cricket maker machine the one that cuts fabric and you guys I have not been able to stop It is like a serious problem that I have I'm thinking up all the different things and ideas that I could cut with the maker machine With the cricket maker and it's just been so great So I made tons of holiday decor some with fabric some with paper some with iron on vinyl And it's super super super cute. So I can't wait to show you those But yeah, I've got a like some pillows and some wall art and some framed art like honestly I've been going crazy So once I get all those things finished and sewn up and like ready to go I'll do a video to show you kind of what I've been working on With that. So that's been fun because like decor is not normally something that I Ever think of sewing, you know, mostly a garment sewer It's been really nice because you come home and you see your makes like out In the living room or wherever you put them and that's kind of cool Like you don't have to just go in your closet and see your makes in the closet You can see them all kinds of different places. So that's been really fun And it's been really kind of different to kind of be like, oh See the thing on the wall. I made that or look at those pillows. I made those So that's that's fun to have around. So yeah, some holiday decor And I think I'll be trying to do some more of that as the year goes on I don't have any specific ideas right now, but But yeah, I think I want to keep keep up with it and make some more decor items. So We'll see about that. Um, and then the third thing is using This I found this gym this gym of a dress at Goodwill. It is a Kind of large Can y'all even see all that? I don't know really big Purpley kind of like the new Pantone color of the year actually I didn't even really realize that Um and I want to take it and cut it up and make it into McCalls six eight three three the dress that I posted Like not too long ago the it's the ballet dress and also my holiday dress the golden white one that I filmed in front of the tree I want to make a version of that out of this and I think it will be so elegant and so cute Out of the velvet this has a little bit of stretch to it, but not too much. So I feel like it will still be So like be able to support that like low bust line and those little like cups that it made But I mean you guys loved that pattern loved that dress that I made so much and I did too and I knew that I really liked it But I don't know having you guys like support it so much kind of validated it for me because sometimes I'll make something and I'll love it and Do you ever like make something that you really like and then you wear it for the first time? And you don't get any compliments and then you kind of go. Well, I don't know. Is it not that cute? I do that sometimes But then you make something and you wear it for the first time and like you get tons of compliments all day And you're like, yeah, like this is a really cute dress. So that's how I feel about m 6 8 3 3 So I want to make another version And I just think velvet is having such a moment right now And there's still plenty of time to wear it even though the holidays are past like this is a color of velvet that I think Transcends like a holiday or even really a season. I feel like you could wear this in fall in winter Even spring depending on what you wear it with and how you style it. I don't know I think it could be really cute. So I am excited to transform this really large long Dress it has lots of fabric because it's so long. I mean look at that. That's like half a yard or something right there So I think I'll have plenty of it to make that dress because that dress has a lot of little pattern pieces too Which is also really good. Anyway, so a little refashion on the way out of this is also in the plans for December so That is everything that I have made in November want want but Once I get those jeans that jeans pattern figured out It's all for the races. I'm making pants like it's going out of style Because I've literally never had pants that I liked ever. So I'm super excited And then lots of fun plans for December. I kind of love this time of year because you make things you wouldn't normally I mean Whenever else would I pick up rainbow sequin fabric if not in December? I have no idea. So So, yeah, so yeah, I'm really excited.
