Dialogue: 0,0:00:00.44,0:00:03.54,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,There is a box, in the corner of my sewing\Nroom.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:03.54,0:00:07.26,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It is a box whose contents have not seen the\Nlight of day for many a month.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:07.26,0:00:10.67,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Many crafters will be familiar with this box,\Nin all of its forms:
Dialogue: 0,0:00:10.67,0:00:14.03,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,There’s the ever-growing amorphous lump\Nthat lies underneath your desk…
Dialogue: 0,0:00:14.03,0:00:18.76,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The monster underneath your bed…\NThe stuff you vacuum-packed in a fit of organization
Dialogue: 0,0:00:18.76,0:00:22.20,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and stuffed into your garage in the hopes\Nthat you’d never have to deal with it again…
Dialogue: 0,0:00:22.20,0:00:25.48,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,This, my friends, is the UNFINISHED SEWING\NPILE.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:25.48,0:00:39.59,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Hi! So I’m starting this new series on my\Nchannel. I have this box here, sitting in
Dialogue: 0,0:00:39.59,0:00:43.69,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the my bottom of craft room, that’s filled\Nwith half-finished projects and a bunch of
Dialogue: 0,0:00:43.69,0:00:49.80,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,thrifted clothes that I bought... some...\Nyears ago, that I had all the intentions of
Dialogue: 0,0:00:49.80,0:00:56.46,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,fixing and upcycling and making cuter, but\Nthen kind of just threw them in here and forgot
Dialogue: 0,0:00:56.46,0:01:03.56,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,about them and have been ignoring them for\Na long time. But, as you can see – it’s
Dialogue: 0,0:01:03.56,0:01:08.34,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,turning into a little bit of a problem.\NSo, in each episode of this new series I’m
Dialogue: 0,0:01:08.34,0:01:13.30,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,going to be taking one item out of this box\Nand finally fixing it, until the box is empty.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:13.30,0:01:16.59,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,This series is mostly going to be focused\Non simple fixes, so the videos are going to
Dialogue: 0,0:01:16.59,0:01:21.08,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,be quite short little episodes, but hopefully\Nthey will teach you some more simple sewing
Dialogue: 0,0:01:21.08,0:01:25.20,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,techniques and cover a lot of the basics,\Nand at the same time help you to make your
Dialogue: 0,0:01:25.20,0:01:29.31,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,clothes… cuter! Anyway, I’m really excited\Nabout this new series and I hope that you
Dialogue: 0,0:01:29.31,0:01:32.43,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,enjoy it too.\NAlright, let’s get started on the first project!
Dialogue: 0,0:01:32.43,0:01:36.87,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So this is the first item that I pulled out\Nof the box. Now, I’m sure that some people
Dialogue: 0,0:01:36.87,0:01:41.97,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,would be able to pull off a dress like this\Nwith a big ring right in the centre, but I
Dialogue: 0,0:01:41.97,0:01:44.92,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,am not one of them. It's… definitely not\Nmy style.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:44.92,0:01:49.42,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So, first thing that I did was to get a small,\Nsharp pair of scissors and carefully cut the
Dialogue: 0,0:01:49.42,0:01:53.37,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,ring out.\NThen, I also cut off the loops that held the
Dialogue: 0,0:01:53.37,0:01:54.97,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,ring in place.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:57.30,0:01:59.30,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now, I’m going to sew the remaining bits
Dialogue: 0,0:01:59.31,0:02:03.91,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,back together, like this.\NI thread a regular sewing needle with some
Dialogue: 0,0:02:03.91,0:02:07.58,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,black thread to match the colour of the dress.\NTo do this, I push the thread through the
Dialogue: 0,0:02:07.58,0:02:14.89,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,needle’s eye, pull it through, double the\Nthread over and tie a knot in the end.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:14.89,0:02:19.06,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,This, in my opinion, is the easiest way to hand\Nsew because you don’t run the risk of losing
Dialogue: 0,0:02:19.06,0:02:23.12,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the thread’s tail!\NThen, I push the needle up through the back
Dialogue: 0,0:02:23.12,0:02:31.45,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,of one side, and then down through the front\Nof the other side. Then I repeat this, literally
Dialogue: 0,0:02:31.45,0:02:45.37,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,about 50 times, to secure the two pieces to\Neachother very firmly. Then, with the thread
Dialogue: 0,0:02:45.37,0:02:47.81,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,on the inside of the dress, I tie a knot in\Nit and I cut off the excess.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:55.27,0:03:00.71,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,When I’m done, it looks like this. And you\Ncan’t notice the threads at all unless your
Dialogue: 0,0:03:00.71,0:03:07.78,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,face is inappropriately close to my boobs,\Nso… success! I really like how this turned
Dialogue: 0,0:03:07.78,0:03:12.10,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,out, and now I have the cutest little black\Ndress, with an interesting cutout feature,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:12.10,0:03:13.21,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to wear out at night.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:22.84,0:03:28.64,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And a super BIG thanks to Julia Elms for doing\Nthe amazing artwork in the opening title - didn't
Dialogue: 0,0:03:28.64,0:03:29.77,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,it look amazing??
