A place where I share all my makes, whether they be sewing projects, home diy's or general crafty goodness! I love to create things and I hope to inspire you to create something yourself.
2025 sewing goals
I thought I'd share some of the tools, techniques, and my general mind set for this new year. How can I grow in my skill and knowledge and move in a direction I desire. Rather than being a passenger in my own sewing life, I've decided to implement these 5 things.

Everything I Made This Fall
Переглядів 487Місяць тому
Checkout everything I made this fall. I spent quite a lot of time stuck in bed this fall not feeling well, so I was unfortunately unable to make everything from my fall sewing plans video. See what I did get up to. Also, please let me appologize for my stuffy, heavy, out of breath, breathing for my 4 most recent videos. I did get covid and spent a really long time stuffed up and sounding a bit ...

How to paint checkerboard furniture
Переглядів 1662 місяці тому
Finally! I’m very happy to share with you my new checkerboard furniture pieces. This took ages, I was sick for 5-6 weeks (nothing serious), then editing took ages. So you have my apologies for the lengthy wait. I’m hoping to post more frequently, but sometimes life happens. I hope you are all well and enjoy this home DIY!

I tackle my pile of doom! Summer alterations and repairs
Hi, love the Villanelle Dress..can’t find a pattern for it anywhere?
Hi Sally from the cold UK! Thank you so much for watching. I can't think of the pattern I used. If I mention something in a previous video I forget to mention it in future vides. I need to get better about that... Sorry😐. I am quite certain I mention it in my fall sewing plans or fall makes video..
@@megaflydiyhi! No probs, I just found it in your other video. New Look one! Great to have found you. I think you must have been unwell..I wish you a steady full recovery x
Hi..busy day but finally getting to watch you for the first time. I have just made two Bobs! Totally agree re the pockets, they kind of flap around are too low., other so simple to run up. Love your clothes and fabrics . Hi from a very cold UK x
Use the shower head to rinse? Why did you make this so hard for yourself?
Good idea, but with my coordination I'd probably have sprayed myself more than the sweater 😄
Coolirpa is cool.
Really enjoying your style and choices! Great video thank you :)
the kantha shirt jacket is amazing! I really love your thoughtful pattern placement choices, it took the end result to another level.
Thank you, I love that thing!
Beautiful!
They are indeed spectacular
I look forward to following you and all your ideas this year. I, too, try and dibble in a lot of things. 😊
😁most excellent
Kitty Lisa! ❤❤❤
😁
Phew, learning to accept the imperfections and compliments, a lifelong goal 😅
😂right!?!
i can't hear you. the first part has volume but I can't hear you talking. only faint background music. Other than that I enjoyed the video.
I'm sorry about that, I'll look into that. Thank you for letting me know
I loved your video! I have just finished embroidering my second Hinterland dress. I love it! I was nervous to do it, but I waited for a vision, and once I had one, I went for it. I have been fantasizing about embroidering my clothing for years. I did some in my youth, but stopped, and thought I should adopt a more grown up look. Well I am 65 now and decided it's now or never! You have great ideas!!! I can't wait to see you bring them to life!
Yahoo, way to go! I feel the same... should I dress more "grown up"?...NOPE. 🤞my jacket turns out well
Hi. I enjoyed your video today. I like your goals.
Thanks! Me too!
Thanks, Megan. Those are great goals. My mom tried to teach me to knit when I was young and I never got the hang of it. I have 2 scarves I knit decades ago and wear them. My memory is that she casted on and casted off so there's a bit of her in there too. Love your gallery wall!
Thank you. I love those scarves, to have something that reminds you of the people in your life is simply the best. Every time you pick it up, use it, wear it you think of them. I love it :)
These are awesome sauce!
Tjose leopard print "fail" pants - make shorts out of them with a small godet in each side seam for a little flutter flare.
You're the only woman I've seen look good on barrel pants. Nicely done.
@@CPAndy-x5x 🤣thx
The tweed colors in that thrifted suit really do light you up! Great find!
Absolutely loving these makes, especially the first light wash wabi sabi jeans!!! They remind me so much of the jeans I used to wear before I grew out of them. They look so beautiful and whimsical with embroidery. I did keep my old jeans so this is very inspiring.
You have great taste!
@@aliehaagsman ☺️😃😁
You have some gorgeous materials there to work with! The wools are just beautiful and I’m sure the end results will be perfect. I just love the content of your videos, both thrifted and new materials (just like I use) and always quite ”mature” colors and shades, a sort of rustic eclectic style that is just what I love. Sending lots of hope and wishes for your recovery and getting some strength back ❤
New subscriber. Love 🎉
So lovely to come to your channel for all the colours! I'm obsessed with your fig overalls - where is this pattern from?
Vintage buttermilk 4439 mash up with the Barry pants. I have a video making them, whiley video making has come a long way and this old video is slightly cringe it might be helpful if you want to remake them
Fascinating! I can’t wait for more!
Nice finds! The last one I would definitely make into a shirt, but an other idea is to chop it under the embroidered front piece and add another fabric to make it to a long enough dress.
🤯... I've been leaning towards shirt...but the second 💡❤️ fantastic suggestion!
Love the Pendelton jacket. Your Kantha jacket is the stuff of dreams. I see that you self-drafted the Kantha jacket. Can you suggest a similar pattern?
Thank you, I love this jacket and the kantha material so much. If I had to pick one favorite this would be it...let me have a think on the patterns...
great makes! wishing you an amazing full recovery!
I send blessings for your healing.
Awesome makes. Thank you for sharing
I love your style and creativity! Happy, healthy new year to you!
Thank you, I hope you have a happy healthy new year as well☺️
Good job!!
Thank you! Cheers!
Your clothes are absolutely stunning :) I love the shirts you made with the choices of the fabrics, the fit that looks like it's perfect, it's so artistic, I love it!
@@karolienvd4341 thank you so much! That means a lot to me😁❤️
I’m watching loads of compilations of ”all makes 2024” at the moment and UA-cam put your video in my suggestions and wow am I glad about that 😊 I love your choice of fabrics, colours, textures and so on and your makes are so creative and artistic. I really appreciate seeing those well known patterns made in a much more creative way. And that you use preloved fabrics and textiles and upcycle garments as well. All in all right up my street! Looking forward to following you, new subscriber for sure 😊
@@evasaker2476 oh my gosh, you just made my day! I too am watching all the 2024 makes videos and I'm delighted that youtube suggested me. Happy to have you here😁
I love your videos and your calm voice. I can’t wait to see your finished products
Love those black pants!!
Thank you, me too! they are pretty great 😃
Wow. Your style and garment construction methods are amazing. Every thing looks so amazing on you. ❤
I appreciate that so much, thank you 😊
WOW😮😮😮you’re the coolest
😂 👍😁
You made beautiful makes❤
Thank you! ☺️
Just found your channel in my recommended section. Love your style. May I suggest including the pattern names in your video title to reach more viewers. I have been searching Bob and Barry pants for six months. Never came across your channel. Best wishes for 2025.
Thank you for the suggestion...I'm still experimenting and trying to figure out the best way to reach audiences..."the algorithm!" Glad you found me and like the video ☺️
@@megaflydiyhi..just made The Bob pants myself. They are by Style Arc
@@sallyvaughan1231 yup, both the Bob and the Barry pants are by style arc. Sorry for any confusion
Thanks for sharing. Love your blue self-drafted dress. Wishing you a healthy 2025!
Thank you, that dress was a fun one!
Really nice. Love the 2 cactus shirts. The modified men's vest looks nice on you, and warm.
Thank you, I love that material
It's fun to watch other people work. Haha. Love the end result!
So unique, creative, and you! It must be fun and satisfying to choose what to wear each day. Thank you for this!
Ha! Truly 😁thank you
You made really lovely things last year!! But my favorite is the wabisabi jeans.
Thanks so much! I really liked those jeans too.
The pattern matching on your floral kalle is epic !
@@lisa101lisa4 😂 thank you!...it took sooooop long, but totally worth it!
Hi
You made such unique quality pieces. Love them on you! Best wishes for 2025 and greetings from Gouda, The Netherlands. Joan 🫶
Joan, hello👋😊, thank you. Best wishes to you as well
Your chanel is the best discovery this year! So inspiring! Thak you for sharing your fantastic makes!!!! 😍😍😍
oh my goodness! what a statement, thank you!
Could you please share the pattern number of the Nicole Miller McCalls jacket? The R10615 on the envelope of your pattern is just a display number. The instructions should have the actual pattern number, an M followed by 4 digits. Thanks! I have the M8007 pants pattern, but I'm still new to sewing clothes, so I haven't tried it yet. It's for meant for wovens, so make sure you take that into account when you figure out what size to make. Happy sewing!
M8121 And yes I definitely have, thank you...they may be sewn already 😁. I tend to use patterns as inspiration and then go wildly in different direction ignoring all instructions, lol🤷
