    Hi young hannah I've been watching your videos for quite a while now I was telling you how much I travelled all my life and how I admired your lifestyle, then Parkinson's and heart disease stepped in and screwed that up well after watching you I decided you know what lifes too short so I finally found an insurance company who would cover me so I arrived back in Ireland yesterday after flying out to an island called Koh lipe 3 hours by speedboat out in the Andaman sea near Langkawi then I spent a further 6 weeks with my partner in Nakhon Ratchasima then I was in Moscow this past week not too bad for an old guy eh ? Who 6 years ago they said would be lucky to get 8 weeks and tbh watching your vids reminded me how free my life was leaving Ireland at 18 years old and travelling for 40 years and the wonderful adventures in between just love what you do it so reminds me of myself at your age so thanks so much for that.

Your videos (especially the van day in my life) are really helping my anxiety and giving me direction on how to be at peace with myself and surround myself with the calmness of nature. Please don’t ever stop being you!! I hope you’re having an amazing day 💛💛

  • @liannehoenderboom1018
    @liannehoenderboom1018 3 роки тому +1

    quick tip, if you put your pins in from top to bottom instead of from side to side along the seem, this will cut down on sticking yourself with the pins when handeling the pinned piece of fabric, and it will also stop the pin heads from being in the path of the sowing machine needle and thus the risk of snapping the needle.... so the pins and the direction of the line your about to show should form a "+" and not a "=" ... (got this tip from a friend of mine who is a proffessional seemstress, and it has saved me a lot of "auch, I just stuck myself"s and snapped needles and such)

    I just found you earlier this week and I have been binge watching your videos. I loved this. That sweater is so cute and that blanket reminds me of the hospital blankets And so readily available at the thrift shops now. I'm gonna have to try this.You've got me wanting so bad to do the van life. I actually entered the contest for the van with the $80,000 upgrade.That would be amazing.

    You’re very creative. I buy wool blankets from walmart, amazon & thrift store to make a wool jacket out of it to wear in the Fall weather.
    I also wear my homemade wool jacket underneath my coat in the Winter time too. I also make wool pants out of my wool blanket. The wool blankets I buy at the thrift stores are brand new still have the tags on.

I´d like to see some pants made of smthg, even out of this blanket, just an idea. sending love! and thank you :)

    To avoid those armpit holes, cut the torso piece and the sleeve pieces, sew the sleeves onto the torso at the shoulder, and then you can use one long seam from the sleeve cuff, up to the armpit, leave the needle in the fabric, pivot the fabric, and then sew down the torso to the hemline.

    I love this! I do the same thing but use no sew heming tape so I cant do things like this yet. I usually just make long boho skirts that I can fold over elastic and then just add a backless top and put grommets where I want any kind of ribbon to go for straps. It's all I've been able to make that is easy and also very versatile in making more with different fabrics, color, ribbon, different strappy styles, etc... I dont really know how to explain it because I just do it.... I'm sure you know what I mean. Lol. 🤪🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️
    Annnyywhoo, this video has definitely helped me!! As well as a lot of your videos. I just love you and your style. It's exactly my style as well so you, yourself give me a lot of inspiration. Thank you so much for posting this!

    What kind of sewing machine do you use? In one of your videos, you mentioned not knowing how to use/do button holes and I was wondering if you do them yourself or if your machine has a foot for it? I'm asking because I struggle with this too and usually resort to grommets and ribbon 🤷‍♀️ Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
