Dialogue: 0,0:00:14.85,0:00:16.92,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,two.\NToday I’m going to attempt to re-create
Dialogue: 0,0:00:16.92,0:00:21.94,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,a clueless inspired outfit. So the original\Noutfit is from a store called: Glitters For
Dialogue: 0,0:00:21.94,0:00:26.47,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Dinner, and it’s $85 for a coordinated set,\NBUT I’m pretty confident that we can get
Dialogue: 0,0:00:26.47,0:00:31.10,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,away with making this ourselves for under\N$10. So, let’s get started!
Dialogue: 0,0:00:31.10,0:00:36.57,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So I start with a stretchy tartan fabric that\NI got second hand, and I folded it in half.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:36.57,0:00:40.58,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So to make the template for my top I just\Ntake this tight fitting dress whose shape
Dialogue: 0,0:00:40.58,0:00:43.68,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that I like and I place this on top of the\Nfabric, with the middle of the dress on the fold.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:43.84,0:00:45.48,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,[Annotation: I am adding an extra “seam allowance” of ½ an inch]
Dialogue: 0,0:00:45.48,0:00:48.32,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I trace around the top part of the dress,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:48.32,0:00:55.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and then I simply cut through both layers\Nof fabric. Then I unfolded this and I have
Dialogue: 0,0:00:55.04,0:00:59.95,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,a top…looking…thing.\NThen I repeat this step so I have two identical
Dialogue: 0,0:00:59.95,0:01:03.29,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,pieces. One will be the front and the other\Nwill be the back.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:03.29,0:01:08.10,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now I’m going to make some darts on my top\N(you totally don’t have to do this). Start
Dialogue: 0,0:01:08.10,0:01:13.98,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,by making a marking right in the middle of\Nyour top, and then make two more markings
Dialogue: 0,0:01:13.98,0:01:18.10,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,three inches out or however wide you want\Nyour darts to be. So on one of your darts
Dialogue: 0,0:01:18.10,0:01:22.41,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,(and you’ll do this with both), but on one\Nof them do a dot that us about five to six
Dialogue: 0,0:01:22.41,0:01:28.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,inches away from the bottom of your top. And\Nthen make this into a triangle by making two
Dialogue: 0,0:01:28.72,0:01:35.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,marks half an inch apart connecting this with\Nthe top dot, and making a pretty triangle!
Dialogue: 0,0:01:36.63,0:01:41.39,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Also draw a line straight up the middle of\Nthe triangle, and then simply fold the fabric
Dialogue: 0,0:01:41.39,0:01:46.37,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,on this middle line, and using a straight\Nstitch on your sewing machine sew along the
Dialogue: 0,0:01:46.37,0:01:51.77,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,edge of the triangle.\NAnd you should end up with a pretty dart like
Dialogue: 0,0:01:51.77,0:01:55.29,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,this! Repeat this on both sides.\NAnd if I did this again, I would do the dart
Dialogue: 0,0:01:55.29,0:01:57.54,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,on the side rather than the front, but it’s\Nup to your own personal preference.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:57.54,0:01:59.18,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,[Annotation This is your lining fabric. It\Ndoesn’t have to be the same pattern but it *MUST* be stretchy]
Dialogue: 0,0:01:59.18,0:02:02.71,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Then I placed each of these pieces face down,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:02.71,0:02:09.71,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,on another piece of fabric and I pin it on,\Nand cut around it. And leave them pinned together.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:13.44,0:02:19.03,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So I do this with the front and I also do\Nthis with the back piece as well and…ughhh…I
Dialogue: 0,0:02:19.03,0:02:23.98,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,haven’t cut enough fabric…\NI’m not cutting another piece of fabric
Dialogue: 0,0:02:23.98,0:02:30.13,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,so I’m just going to pin this together,\Ncut the excess off, and hope for that my seam
Dialogue: 0,0:02:30.13,0:02:36.69,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,allowance was wide enough.\NSo now that I’ve got both of the pieces
Dialogue: 0,0:02:36.69,0:02:39.58,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,pinned together, I sew them together like\Nthis.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:39.58,0:02:41.96,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,[Annotation: sew around all the edges EXCEPT\Nfor the bottom!]
Dialogue: 0,0:02:41.96,0:02:45.70,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And I use a zig-zag stitch.\NUsing a small zig-zag stitch on stretchy fabrics
Dialogue: 0,0:02:45.71,0:02:48.16,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is best because otherwise your thread will\Nbreak.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:48.16,0:02:53.19,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now here comes the fun bit!\NTurn this piece inside out, and you have a
Dialogue: 0,0:02:53.19,0:02:59.59,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,top kind of thing! Or a hat! Yeah, I think\Nby this time I might have contracted sewing
Dialogue: 0,0:02:59.59,0:03:03.44,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,madness.\NIn any case you should now have both a front
Dialogue: 0,0:03:03.44,0:03:06.74,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and a back piece sewn together with their\Nlinings.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:06.74,0:03:12.90,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So you need to place these on top of each\Nother, front sides together, and pin them
Dialogue: 0,0:03:12.90,0:03:19.90,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,together at the shoulders and the sides. And\Nthen you just need to sew like this. And again,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:19.90,0:03:26.02,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,use a zig-zag stitch.\NTurn it inside out.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:26.02,0:03:29.36,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Wait for it.\NWait for it.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:29.36,0:03:36.96,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Anddd, you’re done!\NWell, almost. You’re going to need to hem
Dialogue: 0,0:03:36.97,0:03:41.01,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the raw edge at the bottom here. So you’ll\Nhave two layers, the lining and the front
Dialogue: 0,0:03:41.01,0:03:45.64,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,part. You need to fold both of these up about\Nan inch or so and pin them together, and you
Dialogue: 0,0:03:45.64,0:03:51.62,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,need to do this on both the front and the\Nback, and then sew an inch away from the edge
Dialogue: 0,0:03:51.62,0:03:57.54,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,all the around the front and back sides.\NNow the top I was basing this off also had
Dialogue: 0,0:03:57.54,0:04:01.85,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,a collar, but as I was feeling lazy I just\Ngot this dress with a white collar that I
Dialogue: 0,0:04:01.85,0:04:06.80,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,got from the Op shop, and I cut the bottom\Noff. Made it into a cropped kind of thing,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:06.80,0:04:10.02,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,cut the sleeves off so you wouldn’t see\Nthem underneath an- wore it under my top.
