    Hi Katinka just found you today. So great to find a South African sewing channel... and all our South Africanisms! I also have to feel fabric before I buy it. I usually make little projects but with UA-cam I've learnt so much. I recently made a baby onesie and I got the courage to try and make myself something. Now it's just finding the correct patterns that work for me. Lovely to see your refreshing vlog...bless you

    Hi Katinka. I enjoyed seeing the Missouri River… I’ve never been there. I love the top you made. The piece you added looks very intentional… in my opinion. I always enjoy seeing your work. I used to cut out and make one project at a time… I would sew into the night just to be able to wear the garment the next day. I don’t do that anymore. I am trying to focus on the details that make a project look good and that will Make me feel good about it. I don’t always do that… but, I’m trying. Happy sewing! ❤ Diann

      @SuzySunshine thank you Suzy. I am loving the fact that I don't have to work on so many things at a time. As a professional seamstress, I could have any thing from 3 to 12 orders at a time in different stages of being done. Waiting for fittings extra. Now I love that I can do one at a time.

    I am knitting a broken rib hat whilst watching you😁 I do sew in autumn but I find myself knitting a lot in autumn. Warm wooly things for the people I care about. My weakness is reduced fabric and yarn because the price is good. I limit myself though and I live in a small house with only a large craft cupboard to store everything in which helps.

    I too love the rain! and the snow! but a good rain is the absolute best! the overalls your wearing are so cute I can't wait to hear more about it. I used to be a very impulsive shopper when I was young but these days I'm really not. I don't want too much "stuff" in my house. When I do buy things it's almost always yarn or fabric because those are the things I enjoy the most. I do have a stash of both and I shop my stash for a project first and I'm TRYING to only buy for a specific project. thanks for another thought provoking video Katina!

    That last line is sticking with me... can't buy more because I would have excess luggage... Well, I am not moving or traveling BUT every piece of fabric takes physical and mental space, and even though I don't have to pack it, it still weighs me down somehow. I don't have a huge stash but I definitely need to use up what I have before I add any more. And finish wips and refashion items...
