    Great video. I have similar issues with trouser fitting but these ones turned out so well for you I may try sewing up a pair for myself. I haven't attempted trousers before so wish me luck.

    • @madebycathcraft

    I really enjoyed seeing all that you sewed up this week.The pants turned out amazing, such a great fit! The customization is what I love about sewing! When sewing with knits what do you use to stabilize the hems? They are so neat!

    • @madebycathcraft
      @madebycathcraft 3 дні тому

      Thank you very much! Oh yes it’s so nice to be able to get a much better fit when you can sew clothes yourself isn’t it! When sewing with knits I don’t tend to stabilise. I generally use a wide zig zag or a twin needle, along with my walking foot, then I give the hem a good press after 😊

    Hi Cath, what a lot of lovely things you’ve made😊. I love the Stella Hoodie. I have made a couple of the extended length hoodies and find them very useful with jeans and trousers being that much longer. I love the Stretch book too and have had a great deal of use from it. I love the Eleanor’s trousers on you, they’re absolutely gorgeous. I’ve never made any of their patterns, so I’ll definitely give them a look. Here on the south coast it’s also very cold and exceedingly windy. The spray and spume is remarkable and it was good to get back to a nice hot cup of tea after a very shortened dog walk !! Have a good week whatever you’re up to and look forward to seeing your next vlog. Take care 😊xx

      Hi Shell, thanks so much. The Stretch book has some lovely patterns in it doesn’t it, I think I’ll be reaching for my Stella hoodie dress a lot! I really enjoyed sewing the Eleonore trousers, it definitely makes me keen to have a look at other Jalie patterns. A nice hot cup of tea after a stormy dog walk sounds perfect! We have high winds and lots of rain here today too. Hopefully it’ll blow over soon! Hope you have a good week too 😊 xx

    I've just bought some Cosy Colours but wasn't sure what to make with it. I am thinking a cardigan as I didn't think it had enough stretch widthways for a Southbank. I made a different sweater a while ago with some fleecy fabric with very little stretch and I can hardly get it over my head!

    • @madebycathcraft
      @madebycathcraft 10 днів тому

      I find the neckline of the Southbank is fairly wide so I don’t need too much stretch to get it on and off, so the cosy colours has worked fine for my sweaters. It would be lovely fabric for a cosy cardigan too!

    • @Yorkygirl59
      @Yorkygirl59 10 днів тому

      @@madebycathcraft Yes, it's certainly got a bit more stretch than the fleece-backed sweatshirt fabric I used before - it hurts my ears pulling it on! I may make the Southbank with the cosy colours, and do the cardigan in something else.

    Styling your Ogden Cami for winter is a great idea. Sally of Secret Life of a Seamstress uses hers like that all the time. So you can see quite a few examples of how she styles it if you check out her videos. But otherwise, just overdye it with a colour you like better.

    With your pink camio,why not try it as you suggest first.Then if you don't like it or it wears use the beautiful fabric to make something for your daughter. With your navy check before you donate it why not take out the sleeves to give more freedom.You could even lengthen the armhole for more room.If that doesn't suit because of the waistline why not unpick the waist.Then either make an elasticated waist or if you need more length buy some fab glitter elastic to use as a waist band.Hem the top and you have a two piece to wear.

      I hadn’t considered taking the sleeves off the check dress and making the waist elasticated. Thanks so much for the ideas! Thanks yes I’d love to still be able to enjoy the pink cami fabric! 😊

    Such a pleasure to watch your video with a coffee in bed. Having a lazy lie in on a cold Grey Saturday. You are featuring 2 🇨🇦 Canadian companies today 😃. This is the first Bestie Bag I've seen with the foam interfacing used to show off the banana shape and I really like how it showcases the simple, functional design. It turned out fantastic. I haven't made the Jalie Eleanore pants but I have made their jeans and while the directions appear mixed in with pattern pieces to save paper, they are not difficult to follow. If you trace the pattern, you'll get great value making pants for your daughter as she grows and yourself. The pocket hack for your hubby's sleep shorts looks excellent. I must remember that for the next ones I make for my adult crew. I make Christmas pj's about every third year. Glad you decided to try a refashion of the blouse. You love the fabric so much, it will be worth the effort. You can try wearing the camp over a close fitting Tee or under a pretty cardigan where it peeks out at the front would be lovely too. I am headed to my local fabric shop this morning to pick up some fleece on sale. My daughter is keen for me to copy an RTW pair of dungarees made in slightly stretchy polar fleece. She thinks she'll live in them in the deep dark winter. Happy sewing!

      Polar fleece dungarees sound lovely for winter!

      Thank you, I’m really happy with how the Bestie bag turned out and I’ve used it lots already, I love it. That’s good to know that Jalie instructions are clear to follow thank you! Thank you for the styling ideas for my Ogden cami, they sound fab, I need to have a trying on session with different things from my wardrobe 😊 Hope you were able to find some nice fleece for your daughter’s dungarees, they sound so lovely and cosy for winter!

    Hi Cath, I enjoyed your video. I really like the pink lining of your bag. It's lovely, very practical. Hope you have a great weekend/week 🥰

    Hi Cath. Enjoyed hearing what you've been up to. That fabric for your hubby really caught my eye! Love big, funtional pockets too 😁 For your pink cami, it immediately made me think of a nightie I used to have. Would the Ogden work as sleepwear in summer? If not, I think salvaging the precious fabric would be lovely (even for something like an eyemask or jewellery pouch). Good luck making a decision on it!

    • @madebycathcraft

      Thank you very much! Yes I like the PJs fabric too! A bit different to a classic check! I haven’t considered the Ogden as sleepwear, thanks for the idea! You’re right, it would be lovely to salvage the fabric, it’s so pretty. Thank you!

    Hi Cath, I’ve made quite a few Bakerloo blouses….but I’ve always made the collar much smaller and no issues with it being flappy 😂, I love how we can adapt patterns to suit our own style.

    • @madebycathcraft
      @madebycathcraft 11 днів тому

      That’s a good plan for the Bakerloo blouse, I can imagine it is lovely with a smaller collar! 😊

    Hi Cath. Another lovely vlog. I’m very excited to see how you get on with your Jali Eleonore trousers. I bought the kit from G & G way back, but I still haven’t attempted to make it! I will watch your progress with interest and will be looking out for additional advice & tips. Good luck!

    • @madebycathcraft
      @madebycathcraft 11 днів тому

      Thank you very much! I’ve started my Eleonore trousers now and I’ll definitely report back on how I’m finding them 😊

    Just remove that enormous collar and you’ll probably wear the blouse.

    I totally agree with you re saving that gorgeous fabric of the Bakerloo blouse. Ogden Cami already suggested is a good idea, or perhaps an Ashton Top. You could add a centre seam to the back, as the print doesn’t need to be matched. I definitely wouldn’t let any liberty fabric go!

    • @madebycathcraft
      @madebycathcraft 15 днів тому

      Thank you, yes I love a Liberty fabric and that print is one of my favourites, I would love to save it somehow! 😊🤗
