Anyone else here interested in making his/her own clothes?

I've recently (the last couple of years) been working on interpreting & recreating Martha Corinne Walton's tartan dress outfit. Still working on filming and will be making an on location reveal soon. I made a couple of posts on Ralph Senensky's blog. He directed many episodes of the Waltons, including those in which Beulah Bondi appeared as Martha Corinne. He was kind enough to allow my comments to pass moderation and be published on The Pony Cart episode page, including a link to the playlist of the footage I've recorded of the *entirely handsewn (no machine)* outfit.

I'll be using these pieces, and more, in my close-up magic, too, soon...

My sister and I had some fun filming this last night. Getting there...



Feedback would be appreciated.

I find the video to be true to form for you. You are very interesting and unique in an art related way. Great consistent style. Call it refreshing!

So, the flavor of your video appearances is seriously entertaining Laurie.

Thank you!

Laurie! What beautiful work you have done recreating these clothes. I'm so glad your response brought this back up and caught my attention. Do you have any videos of you performing your close-----up magic in costume? Would love to see it?

Laurie, I don't have anything to add to this topic right now in terms of comments , but just wanted to let you know I appreciate the level of detail you have covered in these posts. Fascinating.

By the way, I'm a big fan of Ralph Senensky's blog. It's a great read.

Thank you, both!

pulpscrypt, I do have this video from last year:



David, if you're a fan of Ralph's blog, you might enjoy some of the recent interviews Judy Norton has done with him in the last few months and posted on her YouTube channel. Here's one of them:



Did you know he recently had his 101st birthday? He's 100 years of age in the above video, I believe.
