Links to some of the things I mention in the video:
Wearing History’s lace insertion tutorial:

(One thing to note: I have since started doing my lace insertion with a straight stitch, as zigzag wasn’t readily available to the home dressmaker in this period. The above tutorial still works for both and explains the steps beautifully.)
My shoes are the American Duchess Collette boot:
