What 900 Hours of Hand Sewing in 12 Months Created: Historical Fashion in My 2nd Year Sewing

It's that time of year again when I show what I hand sewed (historical fashion) during my sewing year (August to August). This marks my second year sewing anniversary, and it feels like the time flew by and also passed incredibly slowly. In all, the rough estimate is that I spent nearly 900 hours hand sewing this year. I should mention though however much you sewed this year is perfectly enough and I never want these time estimates to come off as a competition, as they're merely my experience. If I sewed far less this year, I'd be just as happy with that too ❤️

Throughout the video, I mention a number of links to other videos and series on my channel related to the ensembles I'm showing. Here they are in order of appearance:

Grape Gown Ensemble Playlist:    • The Grape Gown  

My focus for this next year of sewing will be on making more workwear and some of my ethnic dress (I'm a Tatar). I'm also hoping to really get a deeper understanding for draping and fit.

I'm looking forward to what this next year will bring. Thank you for being a part of my sewwing journey!
