I had some supposedly easy garment ideas to make, so let's make 'em and find out if they're actually as simple as my brain thinks!

    "People are always like 'trace a pair of pants that you really love' and I'm like 'I don't have a pair of pants that I really love!'" Feel that so hard! Like if I already had this garment in a good fit I wouldn't be here trying to figure out how to make one from scratch
  • 😂 so many days I stand at my cutting table with your same far out look only to realize it’s been 40 minutes and I’ve still not figured out what I was going to do.

    I call Charloe's videos "case studies" rather than tutorials 😄
  • So I do a ton of sewing with elastic, and the phenomenon you described where you measured it but then it grew after you sewed it is super common. The trick is to stretch it 4-5 times BEFORE you ever wrap it around yourself to "wake up" the elastic. This way, when you cut it, it's already at the length the elastic has decided to recover back to. I also get less waviness in my elastic after sewing. Hope that helps!
  • My favorite part is that if you did dream up that jumpsuit video, one this is a self-fulfilling prophecy, and two you’re just that good that your subconscious helps you out lol
  • The need for all clothes to accomodate large steps is incredibly relatable 😂😂😂

    The good thing about a project like the no waste jumpsuit is that the fabric is left mostly intact as one piece so if you decide you don't like it you can reuse it.

    Just wanted to say how much in love I am with your subtitles. They are always so good, so clear and funny. I have auditory processing disorder so its just nice to get explained what the weird sounds in the background are.

    "That'll do pig" also lives rent-free in my head!
  • Can confirm that the jumpsuit can be made with nonstretch fabric! I have one in green batik cotton and I love it! The only issue with nonstretch fabric is that it's a little bit harder to get into it through the top because, well, nothing stretches. 😂

    "[Lighthearted, fun music, like a bunch of small animals having tea]" - I adore your subtitles!

    I completely slept on skorts. I hated them as a kid when I didn’t have chub rub but now they’re the perfect option… and I have fabric for it…
  • I always call walking with large, intentional steps a murder strut. I'm definitely giving the overalls a go.
  • I use a walking foot for my knits and it works amazing. Also I'm a big fan of leaving an opening in your waistband method so that the elastic can be replaced when it dies.

    21:17 OMG. Mindblown 🤯🤯with the whole “if you’re cutting on the fold fabric, highly recommend only folding over enough fabric to fit the thing that you were cutting. Don’t leave all this extra space over here.” Literally speechless. How on earth have I not figured that out until you just said it. Thank you Charlie for making my day.

    I loved how you ended up with three outfits with such different vibes. The jumpsuit feels childlike (in a fun playful way), the strawberry skirt is very teen, and the dress is grown up.
  • My guess on racer back is that it originated with swimmers...as in racer back swimsuit that makes it easier to swim competitively without worrying about straps falling down.
  • The item that I see with the racerback style most often is swimsuits. Maybe it’s racing swimmers?
  • Racer back comes from swim suits. Competitive swimming you want the straps between shoulder blades allowing for no restriction to range of movement
