- Weekly catch up
Hello everyone and welcome back to my channel. Today I’m back with a weekly sewing catch up. I’m sharing some recent makes, some fabric and patterns and some sewing plans.
I don’t have any adverts on my vlogs so instead I have set up a Ko-fi account as I'm working towards buying a better quality camera go improve my vlogs. You can find the details here if you would like to buy me a coffee.

I’m totally in love with the Fleur too!! Such a fab pattern! That Ether dress is so pretty too. It will look really great on you! How wonderful you all got to go to Paris! It looked like the best weekend!
Oh I adore your Nell pink dress !! It's gorgeous and I want to make one for myself now !!! I know it's not your cup of tea but I adore it ! Glad to have found your channel !
Great makes and beautiful fabrics, love the Fleur dress xx
Thanks for sharing Liz, I like both your Nell dresses but somehow the green one looks longer. So glad that you were able to get away to celebrate your birthday 💙🧶🌈🍓
I think for the tomatoes fabric it would look gorgeous as a Denim maxi skirt
A pinafore in your tomato fabric wud b fab with a white or red t shirt underneath... fab makes you are so talented 😊
Some amazing makes and I am definitely checking the fleur dress now!
So great to see you Liz. Thanks so much for the Sew Fruity shout out! Love seeing your fruity fabrics and you could enter a lot of your recent makes into #SewFruity24 as well 😍
Hi Liz! Thank you for coming back and share your sewing journey with us. Your experience with both Fleur and Nell dress patterns was spot-on and extremely useful to determine my purchase. At the moment I'm sewing the Fleur and I highly appreciate the instructions. For a v-neck experiment Ive bought the Penelope dress by Emporia patterns. You haven't tried it, have you? I would be interested in your review (although you might not like the vneck😅). I've started sewing a wearable toile for the Juliette dress by Silversaga but left it for the moment since it has long sleeves and it's very hot now in Italy. Absolutely in love with S. Patterns although very fabric hungry and definitely not a quick sew! Happy to hear that your daughters are doing well. I believe health issues take time and patience to come to a positive result. See you whenever you manage without applying too much pressure to youself.❤
I love your raspberry wide legged trousers- they are gorgeous 😍 for the stretch tomato denim how about a pinafore dress or shorty dunga’s? Would make it more of a transitional piece then for spring/summer or summer/early autumn.
Hi there… I think a fun pinafore for the tomato fabric, so you can layer underneath if you want to wear it trans seasonal. 😊
For your tomato print fabric the Wide Leg Pants from Peppermint Magazine would be perfect for summer
You could make a summer jacket with the Tomato fabric
The material with the tomatoes on it, the stretch denim I think you said it was, I think would be wonderful as either a pinafore or some dungaree shorts. I think that would be much better than trousers or jacket or anything else. But that’s just my humble opinion!
Great to have you back Liz, I always love your vlogs!
How about shorts in the tomato fabric? I’ve bought some also, with shorts in mind x
Lovely to see you back and I am glad Rubes is doing so well. Xx
I was thrilled to see you back and all your makes .. happy that your daughter is on the mend and you all got to see Paris.. what a lovely memory to have and share
Great see you back Liz and everything is going well! You are fuel for my sewjo 😂 always itching to start sewing when watching your vlogs. Maybe you can shorten the cherry dress into a top?
Hi Liz, I was wondering how much of a bother it would be to take the skirt portion off the cherry dress, reshape the bodice to make it slimmer, take more gathers in the skirt and reattach it. ( sounds like a lot of work?!?,). The drapier green dress ( love the likeness to the tile flooring, ☺️). Definitely hangs and looks different from the more structured cotton dress. ( I personally would prefer fewer bows, but that’s me😉). For the tomato fabric, do you wear capri pants? Might still be warm but cute. So many choices and options. Great news about Ruby’srecovery and that your family was able to travel to Paris! I hope their recovery continues to go well and the surgery was a great success. 😊. Wonderful fabrics & plans. When is school out for you folks? I’m from the US.
A red sash or belt will elevate the cherry Nell dress.
Have you tried adding a belt to the cherry Nell dress? I think it’s so pretty it would be a shame to waste it.
Great to have you back Liz, you have been missed. Loved seeing all your plans and makes. Already looking forward to next weeks video ❤❤
💜
Lovely makes as always! I have the FG tomato denim and am planning on making the TATB Thea pattern as shorts. I’ve also got the Le Weekend viscose linen but have no idea what to do with it!
Hi Liz, how about a fun pinafore dress for the tomato fabric? It’s good to see you back! 💕
Lovely to see you and great to see your Paris photos
Nice to see you so many gorgeous things you have done happy sewing 😊😊
A mid-length "jeans" skirt would be cute in that tomato fabric. You could wear a white, red, blue or green tank top or blouse with it and a pair of athletic shoes or flip flops with them. I'm not sure if that is a style you'd be interested in, but you do such a fine job with topstitching and all the other details for jeans. Welcome back and good to hear all went fine with surgeries and healing and that you had a great birthday trip to Paris!
Liz, its good to see you.
As usual, lots of lovely makes and fabrics. My choice for the tomato fabric would be a fun pair of overalls/dungarees. They would work for warm weather with a sleeveless top or a peasant style blouse, a long sleeve tee would work for colder weather.
It is lovely to see you back and hear that Lolas surgery went well. If you remove the bows from the. gingham dress I think you will like it.Due to the fabric the bows are too prominent. The green abstract dress in the same pattern is stunning. The fabric and pattern for your Paris dress was perfect. The tomato fabric would look great as a jacket ,either a bomber or parker style .
Great to see you back and glad things are going well for Ruby. Love your videos. Xx
Lovely to see you back and so glad to hear that Ruby is recovering well 😊
Lovely to see you. Your green Nell dress is especially beautiful!
Great to have a new Sunday sews. Wonderful to hear that Roo is getting better. Happy birthday , your trip sounds amazing.x
Lovely to see you back, glad all the recovery is going well. Just to say that the tomato denim fabric would make a lovely skirt.
Very nice sewing Liz thank you for sharing
The green version looks really good on you..stunning. you're right about the drapeyness..
Good to see you back with Sunday sews, glad Rubes is doing g well. You’ve made some beautiful makes, all your new fabrics are gorgeous, could you make a pinafore with the tomato fabric
Lovely to see you. Your fabric godmother dress is gorgeous
Hi Liz, I made the Nell and I’m similar measurements to you, made a size 1 in a drapey fabric.Its still oversized at the waist but wearable because of the fabric. Hope that helps. Great to have you back ❤
Lovely to see you back.
For the tomato fabric...how about a pinafore or shortalls?
Thank you Liz! Sew inspirational 😊
Lovely that you're back and to hear Ruby is getting on well. I wonder if you could add another tier to the shorter dress in another gingham (a bit like the Tiered multi coloured dress you did)? Xx
The red pants look was 👍🏾.
You can definitely size down. The ties are ? I always enjoy your channel.
What about dungarees shorts with the tomato fabric - perfect for summer
I’ve been looking for shoes similar to the ones that you are wearing with your Nell dresses. Are you able to tell me where you dot them from or what brand they are?
I don’t agree. I love it on you.
Hi again Liz, I would really like to know, whether the brown curly thing to your right near the door frame is a model of a bull with his legs on the white bottle? I just couldn’t stop looking at trying to figure out what it is. 😂🤣
😂😂😂 It’s an old gin bottle with dried eucalyptus sticking out of the top xx
I saw a bull and legs / horns too
I also saw it and thought it looked like a dog or some animal hovering over the bottle! Funny what we notice,
xXX👍👍👍
Couldn't you just unpick sleeves and run sides in a bit on the Nell
