Hi everyone thank you for watching! I’ve manage to get this vlog to under 20 mins so as not to take up too much of your precious sewing time! If you have any comments questions or just general musings please leave them and I promise I will get back to you! Have a great weekend and look after yourselves - I will see you all soon 💕🥰xx
Paper Theory - Zadie jumpsuit and now Dress pattern!
Studio Seren Mouse @StudioSeren
Think Pink Sewscription Box from @Beyondthepinkdoor
Felicity Fabrics - felicityfabric...
That fabric would make a lovely Ruby skirt from Sew Over it.
I am thinking 'lower half' garment - I always straight away thing blouse/top when it's 2-2.5 metres just a habit. 🥰xx
Happy birthday Karen! 🎉 🎈 🧁
Thank you Pamela 🥰xx
Hey BIRTHDAY GIRL 🎉🎁🎂🎈, happy birthday. Really lovely vlog, thank you . Yes, a very generous gift and that colour looked really nice. Hope all going okay with everything 🤞. Have a wonderful weekend with your family xx
Aw thanks Linda, we have had a lovely time! 🥰xx
👗👏🏻
Lovely to see you nice fabric decisions decisions hope you had a super birthday 🎉🎉😊😊😊
Thank you Robyn 🥰xx
Safiya trousers or a floaty skirt either would be nice with a white top for summer. Hope you had a lovely birthday
I did thank you Suzanne it was a full on weekend and I'm feeling a tiny bit shattered now. Desperately trying to avoid a late Nana nap which will in turn just lead to an early night and pacing the floor at 3am again. 🥰xx
Happy birthday Karen, and I also promised I wouldn't buy any more patterns and material but caved! I bought the Hovea jacket by Megan Neilson in a hope that I could make it whilst trying out my new dress form. I have so far made 2 camisole tops with crepe material - what a nightmare that was but I was reasonably pleased with the outcome. I have also made the t&tb Dominique skirt and another t&tb top, the one with the ties at the back. I am quite pleased with myself as I am learning and the sewing community is so nice, I don't feel I am on my own as there is so much help/advice. Love the vlogs and look forward to them so much xxx
Blimey you've done so well - you are obviously dedicated to getting 'stuff' done. Yes, you are right there is nothing that you can't look up amongst the sewing community - there's always someone who has made a garment before and reviewed it, it's fab - I'm not sure how my mam managed to learn to sew but looking back I think she must have been a talented lady with only the daft cartoons on the big 4 pattern instructions for help (they are Useless!) happy sewing lovely 🥰xx
The blue bobble fabric looked lovely against you x
Isn't it gorgeous? I was overwhelmed 😊xx
Yes I definitely get overwhelmed. I remember as kid, sitting on the floor in a big oldy fashion fabric shop and the floor had sparkle lino, I was in heaven and I was only 6 or 7 years old. I don't think I could ever be as good as some at sewing but I can be as good as I can! @@karensewsslowly
Hi Karen! I'm American and hard of hearing, so I thought you said you made "house bloomers." And I thought what on earth are house bloomers? I cracked up when you showed the adorable mouse bloomers 🤣 I'm so glad the cost of shipping subscription boxes is such that I barely have FOMO. I also need more meterage for my height and size. I think the Safiya trousers are a fabulous idea...so floaty and nice. I think that much black near your face is too harsh. And you're lovely with or without makeup. Hope you're feeling better next week!.
House bloomers! 🤣🤣 That's going in next week's vlog - hilarious! I agree about the black - I would be OK with a full face made up but when I'm looking and feeling like a boiled egg black is a definite no no 🥰xx
The gifted teal fabric is absolutely beautiful. I’m looking forward to seeing what to make of it.
So am I hahaha! Just need to find the pattern that matches the pic in my head! 😉🥰xx
Many happy returns, lovely lady! Can't wait to see what you make with your gorgeous new fabric 😊 Have a great week xXx
I love those little bloomers…..so pretty. I used to sew clothes for Luna Lapin hares (they started my sewing journey), but I haven’t done it for a while. I just might start again after seeing these.
I have a feeling I may have started a new branch of sewing for me too! 🥰xx
Your fabrics are lovely! How special that the lady you met gave you that fabric. I'm in love with that rayon floral. Can't wait to see what you make out of these!
Wasn't it kind? 🥰xx
Happy Birthday Karen🎉❤🎉 Beautiful fabric. I love floral. ❤
Thank you Zelda. 🥰xx
Happy birthday and hope you had a wonderful day . Love the bloomers !! Happy Sewing xx
Aw thank you 🥰xx
Thank you so much for mentioning the subscription box first thing. I get mine quite a bit later than a lot of people and I like it to be a surprise when I open it. I will come back and watch another time.
You are welcome Brenda - I did watch Ruan @theyorkshiresewgirl and it does spoil the surprise doesn't it? 🥰xx
Hi Karen just love the little bloomers on the mouse can’t wait to see the rest of her wardrobe , I like the idea of the pink cheeks too to hid the mark even though I’m sure if it doesn’t come off she will be just as cute just a bit imperfect like the rest of us lol 🐭Amanda xx💕
Hi Amanda, I will just have to cross my fingers and go for it I suppose. Who knows she may even have a face by this weekend 🥰xx
Happy birthday Karen ❤❤❤🎉🎉Hope you are having a lovely day ❤ What a great idea to sew a bomber style jacket in that fabric ,color is beautiful on you ❤
Thank you Paula - I know I'll change my mind a million times till I actually cut out a pattern but it's a Bomber at the mo' 🥰xx
I can relate to your comment of Fomo, but it does get a bit overwhelming 😊
Hi Karen, I was thinking about the Little Pomegranate Sabina skirt (which is a free pattern) for my Beyond the Pink Door fabric. ❤😊
Hi, oooh I will check that out thank you 🥰xx
Happy birthday Karen. Ohhhh those little bloomers are adorable, looking forward to seeing her full outfit. Also looking forward to seeing your jacket, I think it will look fabulous in that fabric
Aw thanks Jean 🥰xx
Happy birthday Karen ❤🥳
Thank you Colette 🥰xx
Lovely fabrics and great vlog☺️Happy birthday weekend Karen. Enjoy every moment🥰 Sláinte 🥂🎊💕
Thank you Mary 🥰xx
Happy birthday Karen. I got the pink colour way this month. A number of us have mentioned to Andrea about having the option of subscribing to a box with a longer length of fabric. 2.5 meters is not enough for me to make a dress but it took much to make a blouse so I get a lot of waste
That's such a good idea - perhaps when Andrea gets settle in her new home over here she can change it up a bit - I know she sometimes struggle to buy enough fabric to make everyone the same but I really wouldn't mind a different fabric as long as I had enough to make a dress. 🥰xx
Hello Karen, UA-cam suggested your channel, and I am happy it did. I have subscribed 😊 I don't have any of the sewing subscription boxes, but I do love watching the unboxing videos! I would need a bit more than 2.5m to make a dress with too, which is why I haven't succumbed to "fomo" 😂😂 I love your mouse's bloomers, seeing her reminded me that I have the pattern to make her too, so I am going to get her ready for my next project I think. See you next time and Happy Birthday 🎂 ❤
Aw thank you Julie - and thank you for subscribing! I am pleased UA-cam are suggesting my vids to people I did wonder if they did 🤔 Once again thank you for subbing it does mean a lot 🥰xx
Happy Birthday Karen Love the fabric you got in your box 👍❤️🌹🎉🥂
Thank you Evelyn, hope you are ok. 🥰xx
@@karensewsslowly I’m doing ok another 3 mths then they will do another x ray to see if I can start weight bearing They won’t operate on my face until I can walk so it’s a waiting game all round at the moment 🙇♀️🤷♀️It’s giving me time to watch what everyone else is sewing and I am being very good at not purchasing patterns and material on line 😇❤️
Happy Birthday Karen🎉. Agree about the intention to sew the Sewscription box each month. I have quite a few too with great intentions. I have drafted a pattern this week so trying to get my sewjo going again. The gifted fabric is lovely and, yes, the sewing community is like a warm hug. Im off for a coffee with my sister as it’s her birthday too. I’ll include you in the happy birthday chorus. Take care Karen. Nxx❤🏴
Happy Birthday! You look lovely.
Aw thank you Nancy Happy birthday to your Sis too!🥰xx
What an amazing gift. Beautiful Birthday fabric. Hope you had a happy day 😊🎉. Can’t wait to see your jacket made up. As for Think Pink, I love the fabric (I got the pink) and was going to make a dress but you have made me think about wide leg trousers now……🤔. And of course we all order more fabric and patterns 😂😂😂- just has to be done!!!! You too have a fab week. 😊 Lynne
Had a really good day thank you Lynne, exhausted now tho' currently fighting off a nana nap 🥰xx
Glad you enjoyed it. Had my nana nap an hour ago 😂😂😂
One main reason I do not get subscription boxes is the amount of fabric they put in the box is not enough for my size.
I like midi length or long length dresses.
Hello Karen, I’m just wondering, how will you sewing machine cope with the thick bobbles? it is lovely fabric, and the colour suits you. Best Wishes.
If it’s any consolation mine arrived this morning too! I am going to pull back from subscription boxes for a while as I just have too much fabric at the moment. I have just put my Sew Hayley Jane on hold for a while but I think I am really going to miss the magazine.
Hi Kazzie yes I need to decide quickly and get it stopped if that's what I'm doing. I can always restart like you say. Thanks for watching 🥰xx
@@karensewsslowly I look forward to your vlogs. Happy belated birthday by the way. X
Really enjoy your videos. I wondered if the fabric from the Pink Door might make a great duster with a tank and white pants underneath.
Do you know I think that's a grand idea! I was watching VivMomsews last night and she had a duster pattern somewhere in amongst her 1000s of makes for the month. Thank you 🥰xx
Karen I loved that thick blue fabric with the dots it's perfect for your coloring. Also that other gift fabric reminds me a bit of a vintage look, I loved it. Say I was wondering if when unboxing could you tip the camera down so we can see?
It is gorgeous isn't it? I have a really rubbish self stick/tri pod thing which I need to upgrade to be fair at the moment if I push my luck with it the phone just flies out of the holder! 🥰xx
I was like you about the pink door subscription box. I now have quite a few unused fabrics that aren't enough to make a dress, so this month I have cancelled it!! I've got the sew Hayley Jane luxury box instead which gives us a pattern and 3.5 m of fabric. Xxxx
Hi Sue, yes I've considered this box too, but think I will given myself and my stash a break for a bit - just keep chipping away at what I've got in my fabric and pattern stash. 3.5m would definitely be enough for me to make a dress etc so it's worth giving a bit more thought to. Thanks for watching - happy sewing lovely 🥰xx
The Dani jacket would be lovely in your fabric it’s fabulous. I have the sew Hayley Jane subscription box, however I did suffer FOMO with all the Think Pink unboxings and left Hayley for a couple of months in favour of think pink, then went back to Hayley 🤣🤣 i personally find Hayley’s box good value and I use the fabric quickly or at least try to, currently having a clear out and destash 🤣🤣🤣
Hi Carol, when I think of the all the fabric being ordered, sitting in stashes, being destashed and arriving at homes via subscriptions etc it's like a huge fabric treadmill - I bet the sewing community could keep the Royal Mail going alone without all the other bits and pieces. I will check out the Dani thanks for the suggestion. 🥰xx
Happy birthday!🎊
thank you lovely 🥰xx
@Julie_sews_her_own_clothes has a gorgeous bomber jacket… watch hers babe xxx
Thanks Stacey - sorry just seen this I will - watch Julie all the time must have missed that one! 🥰xx
Are you sure its your color? You look like a Spring but a skirt would be more suitable?
Yeah it is dark isn't it? Never had my colours done so I've no idea really 🥰xx
