 Hi you guys, it's Lindsay here. Welcome back to my channel, Inside the Hymn. Today we're talking about my plans for next month, which is always so fun. I love going to the stash or to the patterns and picking out what I am going to be working on. And so for this month again, like I said for the last plans video, I'm trying to stay realistic so I don't have a ton of stuff. I know how much time the Royal Wedding so long is taking to put together, so I'm keeping that in mind. Although I do feel like we're in the final stretch with that because all we've got is lining and skirt. Well, the lining is going to take a long time. There are a lot of steps to that. But anyways, so either way, I'm trying to be a little bit more just cautious with how much I'm planning to do. Okay, so the first thing is so my style and I mentioned this a little bit in the Joanne's Hall video that I did. And the so my style pattern for April is Tilly and the Button's Marigold jumpsuit. The Marigold jumpsuit is perfect for you if you have like a little itty-bitty cute figure, in my opinion. There are probably some curvy girls that are going to rock the heck out of the Marigold. I just don't know if I'm going to feel confident in it. I thought for a moment that I would just widen the leg to give it some better proportion width wise. But the more that I looked at the bodice, the more I was just like, you know, I don't really love that bodice. I even looked at like some the hashtag to see how other people's finished ones looked and there were some that were good and some that were not good. And so I was just like, I don't feel like going down a path that I'm uncertain of. So I decided I was going to abandon the Marigold jumpsuit, but I wanted to pay homage and stay true to the so my style concept and the the types of garments that we're making or that they're suggesting throughout the year. So I did pick another jumpsuit. This one is B6522. I'm going to be making your version a view a here with the note short what is it called sleeveless and the cool lot version. And surprisingly enough, this little number only takes two yards, not even kidding, two yards of 60 inch wide fabric and then almost three a 45 inch fabric. But you wouldn't want to make this out of something that comes in 45 inch width anyways, like a cotton, I think would just be too stiff. You're gonna want more of those draperier fashion fabrics. And I feel like most of those come in 60 inch widths. So I went to my stash and I found this so pretty. I'm 99% sure it's a ray on Shelly that I got from Joanne. I think does this say made for Joanne? Hopefully no, it just says BC textiles. I think I got it at Joanne, but I'm not sure. So sorry about that. Maybe that's why I should do more of those whole videos. And I remember if I got it from Joanne or where I got it from. But I got it a while ago. It's been in my stash. It was going to be like an elasticated waist dress. But I think it's going to be really cute for this jumpsuit because it's going to be like a cute day to night thing. I've got like a denim jacket. I've got my white denim jacket from Seamwork magazine that came out in March. That would be good in this. And then of course you can wear it like without a cover up at all. I just think navy is seasonless and year round. So that's what I'm going to go with. I think it's super cute. There we go. So that's the first plan. The second plan is again, I talked about this a little bit in the haul video. So sorry if this is redundant, but VUD is my jam. Cannot wait to make that little number. Long sleeves and all. And I'm going to make it out of this. Again, I got this at Joanne just recently. And it's 100% cotton and it's soft and it's drapey and it's wonderful. So I just love the variegated stripe. And to be honest, like I'm kind of copying the illustration, which who's never done that before? We've all done that. That's what they're there for. In my opinion, that's what they're there for. So I'll be making this. And I think this should be a quick and easy make like in an afternoon. If not, Lord help me. But I think it should be really quick. It calls for linen, cotton blends, crepe to sheen, shally. I don't know about if you need to go that lightweight, but um, I think a cotton, a lightweight cotton would be really nice like this. So that's next. I am still working on the Royal Wedding Sew Along as I mentioned. If you don't know by now where have you been? It is New Look 6526. I'm making both versions, the v-neck and the pleated bodice. So you've got both of those out of me. This is the pleated bodice. No, no, this is the v-neck. Super cute. And this is the pleated. Well, half of the pleated bodice with these lemons. Adorable. So I'll be finishing up both of those in April. I want to say what did I hear last that the Royal Wedding was like 50 days away, less than 50 days away, something like that. Um, so yeah, I'll finish them in April for sure. And then I think the final video goes live. What are we on? Week five out of eight. So yeah, we're getting really close to the end there. So that'll be done. And then for my refashion this month, um, if you don't know, I've been refashioning a garment from Goodwill one a month, every month since the beginning of the year. Um, and I grabbed this, which is not going to film well. It's not going to look cute on camera because it's just a black knit dress. It has like no seaming. Um, it just has, does it even have a, yeah, it has like a little split hem, like an itty bitty one, um, three quarter length sleeves, v-neck, like it is basic. But I want to turn this into something like a little bit cuter and with a little bit more shape to it, probably just add a gathered skirt, like cut off some of this and then turn it into a gathered skirt. Um, because I got these really cute sandals at Nordstrom Rack clearance, and they were like $10, but they're basically just flat sandals, like very thin flat sandals with like a wide band that goes over the bridge of your foot. And then that has like a big giant bow on it that's also black. So I just think like a knit dress, plus that throw on a scarf or statement necklace and some earrings and I think it'd be a really cute outfit. So I also have a couple little jackets that I've made that have black and white in them. And so this would be a cute way to wear those as well. So that's why I pulled this one out. It's going to be quick and easy, no big deal, do it in an afternoon. Um, but I loved this. I picked this particular knit dress from Goodwill, not because it was black or anything else, but because I feel like the knit for being a used garment has held up really well. So that gives me a lot of confidence that it's going to continue to hold up well and continue to look good, um, for years and years to come. It's not pilling. It's not discolored. It's, it's looking really, really good. So I don't know how many times it's been washed by now, but it's good quality knit denim or dnco denim and company. Never heard of it, but, um, it almost feels like it might have a little bit of like ponte to it, like a super lightweight ponte. If that's even a thing, 95% cotton, 5% spandex. So maybe it's that extra two or 3% of spandex that's helping, that's helping out a lot. Anyways, so there you have it. Those are my plans for April. Um, I will be continuing to post on here every Wednesday at noon for the Royal Wedding Sew Along, and then as I get these other projects done, I'll either post about them on my social media, I'm at inside the hem everywhere, um, and or posting a like review type video, um, on here if time, um, allows, but the weather is actually finally starting to feel like spring. We had another cold spell when I was filming this dress, literally it was like 48 degrees or something, I was dying, but all in the name of the YouTube channel, all the things that I do for all of you couldn't even tell I bet, other than it was really cloudy and kind of rainy. But anyways, the weather's improving, so I can't wait to get out and get some of these, um, garments, uh, filmed. I actually filmed this one, um, I don't know if it's too dark back there, I'm losing all my light, but, um, I filmed this one today, so I'll be able to get that one up here in the next couple weeks too. So there's gonna be a lot of stuff going on on the channel, and I hope you guys continue to like it all. Um, so yeah, that's gonna do it for the plans video for April. Let me know in the comments down below what you're planning on making in April, if you've got a specific pattern picked out, or you have a fabric that you're wanting to use. Um, let me know in the comments below. I love to be inspired and motivated by all of you guys, so until next time, I will see you later. Bye!
