I Made the Striped Dress from Sleepy Hollow using Markers || 18th century Sewing Meets Tim Burton

Did you know that the original dress in the Sleepy Hollow movie was made with magic markers? After having failed to make this dress three times before, I was determined to get it right! I used plain ivory silk taffeta and a whole army of markers in order to make this dress.

Please note that this movie was sponsored by @Baby Lock Sewing Machines , for whom I am an ambassador, as well as @Beatrice Forms who kindly sent me a dress form for use in this video (and future ones for sure).

The Beatrice Dress form is from https://beatriceforms.com/ . I have been really lucky to only work with sponsors I realy believe in; and as soon as I saw how awesome this one was, I purchased a second one for my Victorian corset.
