The colours are stunning, especially that velvet. The finished look is absolutely gorgeous

2025-06-13 22:59:33 +0000 UTCThe new song is so good! I believe the captive is responsible for the incredible music in your videos? He has outdone himself

2024-04-03 03:15:25 +0000 UTCIs that a new title card? Love it!

2024-02-20 04:25:55 +0000 UTCThis is awesome - though, what do you do to clean them? 😅
Lauren
2024-02-12 05:05:47 +0000 UTCLoved this vid. Song at the end was giving Victorian gin hall in the best way

2024-02-12 00:44:25 +0000 UTCIt’s still that large guest room. Note the owl above the headboard, the side tables, bedside rugs… lighting is everything!

2024-02-07 15:19:17 +0000 UTCI love the video and not to take away from yours and the captives hard work, I have to say the very end was the cherry on top ! 8)

2024-02-05 21:28:47 +0000 UTCDid you do the top part of the bed as well yourself?
Darby Ferguson
2024-02-05 18:03:23 +0000 UTCGorgeous draperies! You've inspired me to make new draperies for my bed. We've been re-decorating the bedroom and I could use a touch more opulence that the bed curtains I currently have.

2024-02-02 17:37:38 +0000 UTCYou could use a walking foot on your machine , also you can get basting tape, it’s perfect for funny fabrics that move, I love making home sewing projects, I’m making a long hooded cape at the moment

2024-02-01 22:39:47 +0000 UTCSleeping in that bed must be like being wrapped up in a warm blanket!! Gothic/Victorian DREAMS!!!

2024-02-01 18:28:46 +0000 UTCOh, sewing velvet + walking foot for your machine. Keeps everything from shifting around. Minimizes those “But, everything was the same length when I started…” moments

2024-02-01 16:39:04 +0000 UTCSo pretty!
Welikemeatloaf
2024-02-01 15:45:53 +0000 UTCI have so much trouble trying to figure out what room she’s working in, it’s confusing. I’d love like a house plan so I can see where the rooms are in relation to other rooms
Sarah Johannsen
2024-02-01 09:31:04 +0000 UTCI loved it as always! Can't the captive bring out a spotify album or something with full soundtracks or so? Because we need the creepy vibes! 😍

2024-01-31 21:59:23 +0000 UTCI learned recently that when you are cutting out fabric, put butcher paper underneath and it will help keep the fabric in place. That way it doesn’t warp as easily.
Trevor Howell
2024-01-31 18:36:22 +0000 UTCAbsolutely stunning!! If by chance this can be answered...those floors...did you sand/varnish them? I have an 1895 home and I've been battling what to do with my attic floor boards which are identical to those.
Sophia Z
2024-01-31 14:57:03 +0000 UTCAmazing as always!!! I’m making a half tester canopy for my bed and you’re 100% right, it’s a head scratcher 😆 so thank you for some useful tips!!
Amy Bainbridge
2024-01-31 12:40:21 +0000 UTCSo beautiful! I wish my sewing skills were even close to yours--I took Home Ec in high school many moons ago, and I'm just now getting back into sewing. You are my inspiration to learn!

Anna Radaelli
2024-01-30 18:35:20 +0000 UTCBeayoootiful! And I love the new Captive music at the end. Also appreciate that you mention that your "Do Not's" come from personal experience. :)

Melissa Kerns
2024-01-30 05:52:15 +0000 UTCWow this was for me like walking into Gothic Heaven mmmmm . Wow!
Martha Soria
2024-01-30 05:15:28 +0000 UTCOMG! Same! I'm laughing out loud at those doggies! They're so cute!
Kiki Reef
2024-01-30 01:31:22 +0000 UTCChristine, the set for the talking bits is my favourite thus far! Very effective uses of light and dark. Impeccable composition. Love the new track too.
Virginia Cardinal
2024-01-30 01:11:27 +0000 UTCThey turned out so lovely! Do you clean them with the steam as well?
Heather Hofshi
2024-01-29 22:41:19 +0000 UTCStunning!

Kim Ladouceur
2024-01-29 18:51:27 +0000 UTCGorgeous. BTW- About 16 min in thought I saw a disembodied hand under your fabric. Did a double take before I realized what it was, lol
Anne Z Knight
2024-01-29 18:44:04 +0000 UTCPerfect timing. I need to create almost exactly this decorative little differences but this is perfection for what I need. Thank you so much!
