A little while ago, I thought I should revamp my tags to be a bit more useful. So that's been an ongoing project. Here's what I've done. "Historical" is history The tag Historical was too broad because it encompassed history lessons and tidbits, historical costumes, and historical inspired modern clothes. Plus, everything from the dawn of time to yesterday is technically historical. So I went through everything with that tag and replaced it with one of the following, more specific, tags:
"Project Diary" Problematic The Project Diary tag was originally meant to distinguish between posts where I simply showed a finished product (not a diary!) and posts where I did a step-by-step walk-through of making it (diary!). I no longer care about that distinction, and I doubt my readers ever did. So I went through all those posts and filed them according to era or one of the following:

Big news in the world of sewing vloggers! Which is to say, not big news, but I am enthused. In December 2019, Sony Pictures released a new version of Little Women (Louisa May Alcott's novel about four sisters), directed by Greta Gerwig. In February 2020, at the 92nd Academy awards, the film won Best Costume Design for Jacqueline Durran's costumes.
Are you being a responsible human being, staying home and keeping to yourself? Are you doing your bit to protect your community by not breathing on them? Good for you! I'll bet you're binge-watching something, too. Allow me to recommend a YouTuber filled with brio and joie de vivre. Her name is Micarah Tewers and she makes clothes. I suggest her for the following reasons:
In some ways, she is my working opposite. Where I over-engineer things, and can find ways to make any project more complicated, she uses hot-glue! It's fun to watch her work.
One thing to bear in mind is that even though the frantic pace of the videos seems fast, it takes a lot of editing. As of right now, she doesn't have a lot of videos uploaded, but I have high hopes that more will come. Micarah Tewers brings zest, kindness, humor, and goodwill to her videos and her interactions with viewers and followers online. These good character traits are why I've filed this post under Phillipians 4:8.
