Wow thanks Ruan for someone who lives in a hot climate (always) those holiday sewing patterns are perfect for my neck of the woods! Top End Australia! I really love that Paloma dress hadnt seen that before. Good luck with all your makes Xx😊
Wow! These fabrics will look stunning on you. You’ve saved them for the ideal time to use them together for mix and match. I think you’ll finish all 4 garments as you’re so motivated. Enjoy your holiday 🥰😊 xx
You are going to look stunning in the Dovestone in that fabulous fabric. One quick thing you might want to add to your plans - a bright pink tote/beach bag 😊
Stunning fabrics Ruan. I love the colour theme and that is great for holiday planning as you only need to consider 1 pair of coordinating shoes and bag 😊. Great vlog. I'm well jell about your holibobs.❤
Such fun Ruan...delighted for you that you can look forward to your next holiday...LOL...the "plain fabric". might be all one color but it's brightness well makes up for that and suits you well. Look forward to seeing your makes. xx Karen
Hello 👋, I've just found your channel and I'm so pleased! Thank you for an inspiring video. I've even subscribed to the Beyond the Pink Door boxes. Really looking forward to your makes. Happy stitching, Michelle x 😊
Love everything you've planned Ruan.. you are going to look a bobby dazzler on your hols 😍. Happy sewing and I'm sure you'll get everything made... you can do it 👌😁💖😘
What a lovely holiday wardrobe 😊. I think you’ll look absolutely beautiful in them. The fabrics go really well with your chosen patterns. I’m trying not to buy any new patterns. I have loads of patterns both PDF and paper 😂. I’m making the Cielo top and Pietra pants. They are my first makes in two years. Go me! Thank you for sharing! Your friend Diane ❤
4 incredible fabrics - hope you make something with the leftovers as they look amazing together - one of those scrap buster projects. I think you might do it. I just completed the Nova coat and it was quite easy. Mind it took me a year - but that was 11 months thinking. Have a great holiday - shoes will be a dream with all your coordinating fabric. I absolutely love everything you've described. Party On !!
I love all your plans Ruan and am especially excited to see your completed Dovestone dress - stunning fabric and pattern combo! I made my mum an Ocean Daze for Christmas in the dress length and the shirt tail hem thingy and found the sides came up too high to be wearable as is, so you might want to consider adjusting the curve. ☺️ Can’t wait to see all your beautiful dresses!
What beautiful fabrics with the perfect patterns. Can’t wait to see the Dovestone that is going to be stunning 😍 . Brings a bit of sunshine to the winter blues 😊
I’ve done it!! 😂 January is my least favorite month of the year due to my health. This January I’ve watched ALL your vlogs! Yes all of them (after finding your channel during vlogmas)😁 thank you so much for keeping me company while I was on my couch not having the energy to do anything else. I really like your channel, you inspire me to make more garments. Love your personality and to see the joy every time you do an unboxing. To see the excitement is contagious. Keep up the good work!
Great plans, Ruan. I'll be on my holibobs at the same time, so I'm busily making stuff for it, too 😊 for the shirt, if you really want to have the tails and still wear it as a dress you could insert side godets (think that's how to spell it! Those little triangle things are what I mean 😅) x
Just saw a vlog by So Sarah Sews date @ 1/14/24 and she made the Pattern Emporium Very Oversized Shirt in 3 different fabrics and views - one for herself, her sister and a dress/coverup version for her Mom - she had some specific tips if you were going to sew it as a dress especially with the rounded hem so if you've got time it would be well worth tuning in for that part and for some good pictures of them made up - she puts markers on her vlog so you should be able to watch just that part. Anyway, I love all your planned Holiday makes and just love the pinks and reds together - they will all look fabulous on you. Will look forward to seeing them - modeled at your vacation location of course!
LOVE that red double gauze! So bright and vivid!! 🌸 I heard the heavens sing when you showed the 2nd fabric - I NEED that...I gotta find it. SO GORG!! 🌸Update - I found the fabric at Lamazi (Andrea was out of it) and accidentally bought that and two other fabrics - thanks a lot Ruan! Now, to finish watching your video🤣🌸 I really love all of the fabrics that you're going to use. Looking forward to seeing all your makes done!
Isn't it fun to see for a holiday? I think you'll get more done than you give yourself credit for because of the anticipation. I love the patterns you chose and might have to incorporate a couple into some of my summer plans. Happy sewing!
You can do this. Motivation of a holiday will get you there. I absolutely love all patterns and fabric choices. You will look amazing on holiday. As for weight gain, I’m in that club. When I met my husband at age 34, I was a size 8. Now age 64, size 14 and I’m only 5’ 2”😢 Anyhow, although I don’t like the weight gain, I try my best to lose some weight, doesn’t always stay off but making my own clothes now helps a little. Loved your video. Xx❤
🤭 2 litres of wine..😂 love it!! Ah so lovely that you’re going back to Lanzarote, but don’t worry I wont try and meet you this time, it’s a bit far from Brum 😂. Gorgeous fabrics and plans and I look forward to seeing how you get on with the ladder trim, I love the look of it but have never used it. You need to get them all made up before Valentines. Day! ❤🩷❤️🩷
I noticed a new free pattern on my email that will be perfect for trip to Spain. I wasnt planning on taking anything that was a dress...(not a dress person) but this jumpsuit I might find room for in my carry-on. Check out the new freebie from Mood patterns called "the Sunday morning jumper". Perfect for beach cover, strolling on the promenade on the beach or rooftop bars watching the sunsets. I think it'll be that one dressy (not dress) thing. Over bathing suit or over a strappy Tee with a built-in bra. Pant legs need to be wider. Have a look at it.
You have a lot of beautiful fabrics and patterns to make. Going on holiday is always a good motivation. 75% you'll get 3 of the 4 made plus finishing your Nova coat. Thanks for sharing your makes plans.
… these fabrics are insane 💙💙💙👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 gorgeous … and the colours are stunning .. how exciting to make up a vacation wardrobe it’s also my favourite sewing boost , and then you feel so glamours while on vacation .. please take lost of photographs in your makes , I am excited to see them .. as always stay genuine it’s like chatting with a friend everytime hugs Ruan xoxoxo Monica
Love all your holiday plans Ruan, and you are going to look fabulous in all those stunning fabrics. I think you will suit all the patterns you have chosen❤
If you haven’t seen it, So Sarah Sews on YT recently made 3 of the PE shirts and talks about them in some detail in her latest vid, including the pros and cons of the longer length.
Lovely to see your holibobs makes plans😅 inspired me maybe not for summery dresses atm but holiday searches 😂 cannot wait to join March challenge for the first time 😊
I wouldn't worry about the nova coat or any other plans.Your holiday makes are the priority so make all of them first. Your nova coat and plans can. be made when you come home. I love your choice of patterns and fabrics.
All of your plans are amazing! But omg 😍 the dovestone dress in that fabric!! Wowza! I recently made the dovestone and really liked the construction and instructions were pretty good!
Beautiful plans Ruan, I’m looking forward to seeing the finished makes! I am also planning some holiday makes currently for my holiday in 5 weeks time 🤩
Fabulous plans Ruan, I can't wait to see them. I had the geometric print from BTPD in the purple colour and I made it into a Donny shirt which I love. I'd like to try to extend that into a dress next time.
I'm in the same place as you with the weight issue - similar gain over the same period. I'm off on holiday the week before you and am in process of creating yet another holiday wardrobe. At least it means justifiable makes rather than sewing for the sake of it 😂. Love all the plans and look forward to seeing the finished makes
Let me start with: your hair is absolutely gorgeous. Now, I think all of your fabric choices to patterns are excellent and you are going to look so cute in all of them. Can’t wait to see them finished,
Lovely plans Ryan. How about simplifying the baby doll dress back with just a keyhole opening and a single button fastening 🤔. Can’t wait to see your makes xx
Love all your plans! The plum dress will be perfect in that red double gauze. Love the look of the dovestone, but looks too low at the back to get away with no bra and my girls wouldn’t like that 😂 looking forward to your makes vlog soon ❤
I love how all fabrics coordinate. What gorgeous colors. I like your plans too. I love the Ready to Sew dress. It's perfect for a holiday. And, I believe the red double gauze dress will look great on you. Have fun sewing for your trip. 😊
❤❤❤ totally inspired! I live in Cairns, we are in the midst of a sweltering summer and these are all going on my must sew right now list xx thankkkkkkk you
You’re going to have a fantastic holiday wardrobe. Looking forward to seeing your makes ❤
Thank you ☺️
Love the plum dress, in green. Looks lovely

Ooh I’ll go have a look 👀
That’s going to look like a fantastic co-ordinating holiday capsule wardrobe 😊
Ooh 100% done, besides you'll barely have to change overlocker threads! 😂
Ha ha. Good point!
Love these plans, Ruan. THe shirt is going to be fab! So lovely to be sewing some summer makes in January.
Gorgeous fabrics, you are going to look stunning on your holidays. Can’t wait to see them, ❤❤
All of your makes sound wonderful. I will be waiting to see the results. Enjoy your Holiday.

Thank you for sharing your sewing plans with us!!

Stunning plans. Hope they all pan out for you.
Thank you!
I love these plans and that colour palette! I have some red and pink fabric myself I’m going to make a deer and for myosotis out of soon.
Fabulous plans Ruan, I can't wait to see them. I had the geometric print from BTPD in the purple colour and I made it into a Donny shirt which I love. I'd like to try to extend that into a dress next time.
Have a look at 'so Sarah sews' she made that shirt and did comment on the height of the split being too deep when worn as a dress, great plans
Yes! I was so glad when I saw she’d done that vlog!
The B cup. Yes that is annoying when they assume you’ll be bigger. I have that issue and sometimes don’t buy as I don’t want to be altering
Great plans. I can’t remember who it is who sews the plum dress frequently and loves it. I’ll just check
I'm in the same place as you with the weight issue - similar gain over the same period. I'm off on holiday the week before you and am in process of creating yet another holiday wardrobe.

Apologies for the misspell - corrective text 🙄 xx
That’s a great idea. Shame I’ve already made it now 🤣
Love all your plans! The plum dress will be perfect in that red double gauze. Love the look of the dovestone, but looks too low at the back to get away with no bra and my girls wouldn’t like that 😂 looking forward to your makes vlog soon ❤
He he. I managed to wear a bra no problem 👍🏼
Hi Ruan. Your makes will be gorgeous. I'm interested in making the Paloma dress too. Where did you buy your insertion lace from please?
I got mine on eBay 👍🏼
Great choices! Please explain, what is a “ladder trim”, you mentioned on the Paloma dress? Thankyou
It’s like a ribbon but with holes in it so the ribbon looks like a ladder 😊
I am going with you 100% you will. Sorry where do you get your patterns printed please can’t see it.
Oh I knew I would miss that link out!!! It's Fabulosew x
Where is the place you're going on holiday? Haven't heard of it-but I'm not that well traveled😊
It’s in the Canary Islands 😊
Sounds wonderful!❤
xXXX👍👍👍
Gemini Stitches (Christine) made a matching shirt and shorts in the pink triangles fabric for her holiday which looked great 🪡 🧵
Ooh sounds gorgeous!
I love how all fabrics coordinate. What gorgeous colors. I like your plans too. I love the Ready to Sew dress. It's perfect for a holiday. And, I believe the red double gauze dress will look great on you. Have fun sewing for your trip. 😊
