Great presentation. I enjoyed it very much!

Thank you for doing the hard work for us newbie sewers. I’ve downloaded a couple of patterns and am going to give them a go. X

tried this, failed miserably, but I know why. The measurement for the front panel WILL NOT WORK if you have more than a B or maybe C cup, it won't be wide enough. measure with a flexible tape from the middle of your armpit AROUND the breast to the center of the chest, then add the seam allowance. Otherwise, the pieces won't come anywhere close to meeting near the middle. Fortunately, I had an old quilt, so I only lost time and not money. Fortunately, I have enough left to make a few tote bags.

You had me at FREE! I love this vlog, thank you. New sub!

You set the pattern size through adobe and you can choose what layers to print. I just print size I need with markings makes it a lot easier

Thanks for fun ideas.

Cheap stuff sold by temu.

Could you soak the little squares in hot water them press them with a hot iron to maybe shrink?

Nice mini haul. I purchased a few of those items as well, some of the fabric packs I bought as cotton are more like flimsy polycotton and frayed. I need to watch a few youtube videos to work out how to use the rulers. 🙂

Fat eighths :) And I'd say those of us on the middle ground re Temu just don't comment! I just enjoy seeing what you make and what you think.

i really love the jumpsuit..nice and baggy and cool for if we ever have a summer. i suppose you could put a long sleeve top under it for autumn ...i loved the crochet top too..what pattern is it please..i have to have written instructions these days . im still plodding my way thru my sophie number 2...ive been busy also i did my nieces buffet for her wedding.. i did my own 8 years ago so knew i could ..but i didnt take into account that i am not the same person healthwise so it took a while to do and although i had help i still suffered for 3 days after..today im nearly back to my new normal. i felt useful though something i havent for a very long time...i did a little bit of sewing last week just puttting a new waist elastic on a layered net skirt for my dd . oh and ive been watching bridgerton lol. looking forward to next weeks video. take care xxx

New here, hi! The Nina doesn't have such good instructions. I did a review last year which has a few tips! I love peppermint magazine patterns but have been a bit wary of random Etsy patterns which looks like they might have heavily borrowed from indie ones! Thanks for the round up!I've got the Helens closet Orchard(free) on my list and am just finishing making the pattern scout Joni with our 14 year old (mine want stuff made again now !!) 😂

You are so cute, as your new jacket!

Either look works for me, and your pattern placement is great. I quite like it without the belt, like a floaty dress, but I do see that it then gives you no shape. The structure of the fabric makes the wide belt quite chunky but maybe tied to the side would look good? Great make

What do you think.... belt or no belt for the NOA Jumpsuit?

The jumpsuit turned out really nice. The curtains fabric made it pop 🙂

So cute. I need to try this. Just beginning to sew.

Looks really good . That colour really suits you. 🙂. Happy holidays x

Nice selection of patterns. So obviously I had to search for the video 😆

Really enjoyed this idea esp using the window as a lightbox ..cant think of the other word for it. I think id do other shapes like stars or butterflies..have a great holiday x

Oh get the £3.44 pattern i blooming love that dress..i have loads of patterns i still need to do but have no enthusiasm for anything just lately. i made the queens gambit pinafore from mood and i love wearing it think its the best one ive made. i did mine in a thick fabric for wearing in winter but if you did that in a light cotton it would be lovely. Thankyou for coming back i really look forward to the weekly chat xxxx

Thanks for finding all those free or inexpensive patterns. Im finding PDF patterns are getting sooo expensive. Especially when you add in the price of printing them out.

Put out a small jar( without the top on) of white vinegar for a few days and watch!!!

I made Tiana's closet's Darlene Vintage-style Dress pattern three times, and I love them all

The biggest issue I’d have with the first dress is that I can no longer reach back zippers.

A lovely selection, I look forward to seeing what you make. Like you I love a free pattern, I've converted the Avid Seamstress Drop Sleeve top pattern into a dress by lengthening it. I gave it shaping with fisheye darts in the back (thanks LiftingPinsandNeedles - UA-cam) and left it sleeveless but I love it - it's the only think I've ever hacked! I'm hoping to make Tiana's closet top, I've a couple of patterns in mind :) And definitely keep up the ad lib style, makes it more like a chat with a sewing friend

I have been looking for free patterns so thank you for the suggestions (:

I made a lot of free patterns from the peppermint magazine or fabric store. Unfettered patterns is also a great source of free patterns. You have to be a standard figure to be able to wear them or you make a muslin. After a while you know which problems occur with them and learn to make the changes. I use some non-expensive German pattern site like pattydoo (nowadays you can translate all of it) that also has videos (also in German but I guess you can activate a translator or something like this) and all patterns are 2,99€ (I don’t know how much that is in real money). Expensive - the Barcelona from maven patterns and dress Hemera from Methode Mathilde (a cute French Designer) that also has an English pattern. Both over 15€. Worth every penny. Say hi to the puppy! Came here for sewing inspiration, stayed for the pretty puppy.

Thank you for the pattern suggestions, I might make the wide strap maxi dress for the summer from some viscose. It’s lovely to have you back. I missed your videos. Any nice and free crochet summer patterns? I’m looking for some quick make summer tee.

I WATCH you just because I like listening to you Guess you're from somewhere in Europe You're amusing and interesting Temu great for small craft items but yarn is not good buy Just bought 15 big twist for 2.78

lovely to see you back. missed your positive smile and vibes xxx

Thank you! I'm going to try this. I just ran into a website that sells heirloom quilts turned into jackets. They are gorgeous. I own a couple of heirloom hand crafted quilts and would have a hard time cutting into them, but this is a good way to try out the process.

Sooo lovely . Pls help make similar but with hoodie pls 😊

Lovely to see you back Phili, dress looks lovely, very summery and very jealous I'm not going on holiday somewhere that's 30⁰! Currently reading Anne Frank diary.

Love the dress. Know what you mean about The Child Called It (but I was interested enough to read his others and they are a bit more positive) and Iots of people love The Secret History, I did like it but wasn't blown away. I'd suggest reading something you know you'll love at the moment as part of self care - you can always come back to TSH at a later date

Lovely to see you back 🙂. I read 'A child called it' a long long time ago - such a heartbreaking but inspiring story. 🤗 YOUR creative circle sounds like fun, pity you're so far away from me. x

My brain isn't working on all cylinders yet 🤣🤣 The dress is the Honeydew Smock dress (from Etsy, less than £4!), link is in the description. x

Lovely to see you again, you always cheer me up x

Omg 😂 i made it..well almost..4 pounds quilt from charity shop..but the seam from arm pit down to hip is where i am getting wrong..do i do straight seam or a curve under armpit..i dont know how to curve hahahha but who cares...thank you big time..please let me know how to keep the arm pit seam tidy...

just checking in on you i hope things are getting better was thinking about you. x

🎉🎉🎉 love this

She doesn't even try to have a good thing to said. She is the first person that doesn't find anything positive with the order received. Another place the ball of yarn are very small:hobbii and it doesn't make them less than a very good place to buy yarn. I hope , that it's better than she think it is. Also she can make a big ball with 2 smalls one.

Beautiful jacket . You made it look so easy too! I have got some quilted fabric, now going to try it . Wish me luck ! Thank you for such a lovely tutorial.

Praying for you & your family.

Take time to grieve. Tell your family you love them every day. Give your family hugs every day and let them hug you. Give yourself time to heal and thank God for the love your beloved pet gave you. We don't know why these things happen. Know your pet would not intentionally hurt your son... but for whatever reason know you did the right thing. Your pet wouldn't want to hurt anyone else again so in kindness to him you said goodbye. You will always have your memories with him. They will always be in your heart.

The main thing is to keep yourself well.... its good to have me time.... family is all.... ❤🎉 sending you all love and hugs from Wales In the UK XXX

So, so sorry to hear this Philly, I had missed you. Sending get well soon vibes to your husband and son and huge hugs for you and all the family, such a difficult time for all. Those who judge are not walking in your shoes, and none of it makes you a bad mum at all, which I know you know but may need to keep being reminded of for a while. Take care x

How blooming sad . You did what was right but the guilt lasts for months..it gets better, I hope your husband improves too. be kind to yourself this adulting thing is hard on us all ((hugs)) xxx

So sorry honey ❤❤❤❤❤ Hope your husband gets answers and gets better soon. My heart goes out to you over your big fella 🌈🐕‍🦺 You take all the time you need. ❤
