A Call to Sewers and Crafters - What Can We Do To Help? - Make Face Masks

A Call to Sewers and Crafters

What Can We Do To Help During this Pandemic?

Make Medical Face Masks for Our Local Hospitals and First Responders

For a few weeks as I prepared for the possibility of self-quarantine, now a reality, I wandered what I could do to help.  Two days ago my mother call me to ask what she could use in place of a medical face mask.  I sent her instructions with materials that included cotton handkerchiefs, cotton t-shirt and bandanas.  At the same time I'm watching videos of medical personnel and their support staffs asking for help with personal safety gear.  It took me longer than I'd like to admit but I figured it out ... make medical face masks to donate.  I'm set for myself, so this weekend I'm going to my stash to find tightly woven cotton and some nice cotton prints.  Then, I'm getting to work.

The one hiccup?  I don't have my sewing machine so the ones I make will truly be hand made.  I hope I can still make to small even backstitches my grandmother tried so hard to teach me how to do.  

Commercial Medical Isolation Mask

I'm reaching out to the blog community to ask anyone who can to make some masks for your local hospital.  Even if you only make two or three and pass the word along, it will be a help.  Call your local hospital to find out if they're set up to receive them and how they would like to receive them.  Or, if they're not ready yet, give them to a doctor, nurse, health worker, or first responder that you know.   They won't go to waste.  We Can Help!  

Here is the  link to Deaconess Hospital with instructions on How to Make a Face Mask.  There's a .pdf to download and a video to watch.  The instructions were created by the Turban Project.  They are a great organization and have other patterns for use by patients as well as these masks.  Make a few for you and your family as well. They even have a pattern for children -- scroll down.

The Turban Project Video

There are many other links and tutorials, though I would use the one listed by the hospital for medical donations.  (They will sterilize them before use.)  Whatever instructions you use, make sure the masks you are making are rated for disease control.  I wasn't sure of some of the other links, so I didn't list them.  If anyone else knows of some proper links to websites and/or videos, please post in comments and I'll add them to this post.

I wish you all well.  Take care of yourselves and your loved ones.

Happy Sewing!


PS - This could also be a great project for families with younger crafters.  Helping can be empowering ... and relieve boredom.

A Setback Can Be the Best Prologue for a Great Comeback.

This is my version of:  A setback is a setup for a comeback.

If nothing else, it gives you a chance to take a breath, reassess, and make a new plan.

Hat Making How-To's - Millinery Lessons from the Edwardian Era 1900's

1912 Illustration

I am quite intimidated by the prospect of hat making but I still have dreams of making a complete Edwardian ensemble from head to toe, inside to out ... except the shoes.  For those with more courage than I have, please check out these Lessons in Millinery from 1902.  Though they presume the reader is experienced, they are great illustrations of style and materials.

 

 

To read the fine print in the lessons, open photos in a new window and click on each to enlarge.

I found these great images at the NYPL Digital Library, an amazing resource.  Like many public libraries, the New York Public Library has suffered severe funding cuts; please consider making a donation if you use their resources.

Happy Sewing and Hat Making!

La Belle Epoque and Edwardian Eras ... Sewing Inspiration from 1910

First, a little education and edification; then, a bit of indulgence.

Edwardian Era:  Strictly speaking, this is the period during the reign of King Edward VII of the United Kingdom from 1901 to 1910.   I don't think I am alone in thinking of this period as extending into the second decade of the 20th century.  For me the sinking of the Titanic on April 15, 1912 puts paid to the era.  It seemed the harbinger of great changes ... but that is just my opinion.

Le Belle Epoque:  "A period of high artistic or cultural development," as define by Merriam-Webster, it began in 1890  and continued through 1914.  A time of relative peace and great industrial strides, many consider it a "Golden Age" and the last moments of innocence before the onslaught of World War I and the "modern age."

I love this period when almost anything seemed possible.  As I was searching for inspiration, I somehow settled on 1910, and stayed.

Poiret's "Oriental" Influenced Fashion

Not only do I love the wonderful draping and the range of dress styles, the hats are a sight to behold.  And speaking of hats ...

Royal Ascot 1910

The hats! The coats!

The dapper gent!

Princess Louise with her daughters, Princesses Maud and Alexandra

I love this photo because it so clearly shows how strictly fashion was dictated by age.

Far left, a girl before her 16th birthday.

Far right, a young woman between 16 and 21 years-old.

Center, a woman over 21 and, most likely, married.

What I find most interesting is how the clothes on the younger women seem to foreshadow the fashions of the coming years.

Thank you, Jennifer of Ohio is My Dwelling Place, for letting me know who these lovely ladies were.

1910 definitely seemed to be a time when fashion - and women - were on the brink of change.

Natalina "Lina" Cavalier

Less extreme than the silhouettes of the previous decade, her gown, posted on Au Feminin still emphasizes hourglass figure and perfect posture of the time.  I love the geometric pattern on the bodice and sleeves.  I wonder if it was done with fabric or beads ... or a combination.

Lina Cavalieri was a renowned opera singer in her day and Pretty Petals wrote a lovely post about her life with some wonderful photos.

Actress Kitty Gordon's evening gown is a wonderful example of the transition from old style to new, with touches of both.  I love the earl beading.  Dame Doudicca posted this photo and a nice description of this era in women's fashion.

This lady of 1910 seems so much more relaxed than the more tightly corseted ladies.  The dress looks fun and I love the hat!  I have trouble believing she's wearing an S-curve corset.  She looks too relaxed.

Another photo found on Les Garconnettes.

Prince (and psychoanalyst) Marie Bonapaparte

I love the sleeve treatment and tiara.  Both seem to be a nod to one of her new homes, Greece.  From her posture, I'm sure her corset was more than tight enough.













I had to include some bridal wear in this post. This is Lady Violet Manner, whose veil is absolutely beautiful brocaded with white velvet.  Apparently she had her and her husbands family crests embroidered on them ... the day before the ceremony.  I wish I had a better view of the dress, which was covered in lace. 

This photo was published in "Every Woman's Encyclopaedia" which can be found at Chest of Books.  You can read a description of this an other gowns of the time as well.

Here is another wedding gown from 1910 in satin and lace. I am not a fan of the square train that was so popular at the time but I still love the simplicity of this dress.

 Here is a detail of the bodice and the shawl sleeves.

Thanks to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, we have many wonderful examples of fashion through the ages.  I'll only include a couple in this post.

Gown by the Mrs. Osborn Company

This Gown is as beautiful going as coming.

French Gown 1909-1911

I'm not sure this gown was a product of 1910 but, as the Met lists it as being from the years 1909-1911, I thought I'd sneek it in.

It looks as if it may have been inspired  by both Greek and  Roman art.

The peacock theme is almost over the
top but I don't care.  Th combination of charcoal and turquoise is one of my favorites.  The two peacocks are down in such detail and seems both elegant and fun.

This is not in the Met's collection and it is not vintage.  It is a recreation of the 1910 pattern found in "Patterns of Fashion 2."  I think this is a wonderful and inspiring dress. The dressmaker's attention to detail in the beadwork admirable.  The entire post can be found at the Costume blog.

Well, I'm worn out but inspired.  What inspires you?

Happy Sewing!

Okay, I couldn't resist a p.s. because when I found this photo, it just made me smile.  What were they talking about?  What were they eating?  How did they make those wonderful bows in their hair?

Nothing Last Forever - Great Sewing Blogs No Longer Posting

In an ongoing effort to organize and simplify my life, I decided to go through the blogs I'm following and retire from my list any that have not posted in over a year.  I was sad to see that some inspiring bloggers are not longer blogging.  I understand that life changes and I hope all of these bloggers are moving on and up to better things.

In an effort not to lose the links to some great posts, I am listing the retired blogs here and a few examples of postings.  I do hope they do not disappear into cyberspace.

Hand-Finishing Your Dress Tutorial ... HEARTH Collection at Cornell

The HEARTH Collection at Cornell University is a wonderful online resource for vintage sewing, cooking, crafting and all things Home Economics.  If you haven't discovered it, I hope you will check it out.

Though I was researching as earlier era, I came across this bulletin from 1948, Hand Finishing Your Dress.  I read through the article and loved how much basic information and instruction it imparted in only four pages.  So, here it is.

Dating Vintage Patterns ...Finding Your Era

I am beginning a list of vintage patterns to help myself and others date patterns we find.  Though it is often easy to determine the decade, even to date the pattern within a five years, it is often a challenge to determine the year.  So, as I find patterns or ads, I will add them to the list below to serve as a guide.

Though this list only has a few companies now, I hope to continue to make it more inclusive over time and include:
