Let's make the Rijksmuseum Reticule AKA Regency Handbag with its Hidden Sides (+ history of pockets)

Thank you to today's sponsor- ME! I have a book coming out and you can preorder it at https://honesthistory.co/pages/history-is-worn https://a.co/d/gn6fUbq In today's video, I re-make the Rijksmuseum Reticule and talk about the history of pockets from the 17th century on. And yes, I am aware that they also had pockets and pocket bags in earlier centuries but I chose to focus on this century and later since this is where we have extant examples to study. Thank you so much to everyone at the Rijksmuseum for letting me come and study the garments up close and for my friends for coming with me! https://www.instagram.com/suzan_meijer_at_work/ https://www.instagram.com/biancadumortier/ https://www.instagram.com/birtheweijkamp/ And Nikki Leeam at @Leeam and https://www.instagram.com/nikkileeam I am in fact a Baby Lock Ambassador and these are the machines I use: @Baby Lock Sewing Machines Embroidery Machine: Venture: https://babylock.com/machines/multi-needle-embroidery/venture Sewing Machine: Soprano: https://babylock.com/machines/sewing/soprano Serger: Victory: https://babylock.com/machines/serger/victory Digitizing Software: Palette 11:​ https://babylock.com/accessories/software/palette-11-embroidery-software If you'd like to make this yourself with the embroidery files, you are welcome to purchase it here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/733136970/machine-files-to-make-silk-embroidered What I'm wearing today: Black dress is from https://www.idodeclareshop.com/ The Sunflower D
