June makes and July plans

Фильм және анимация

A little catch up on what I've been sewing in June (not much) and what I am thinking of sewing in July (far too much)
Any help in deciding whether I should make a shirt dress or shorts with my starfish fabric would be gratefully received! Or suggestions for an entirely different garment.
with a special appearance by Hugh, the hound from Cool Crafting (home of Luna Lapin).
thank you for watching and subscribing, Happy Sewing everyone xx

    Although I love "I'll insert a picture", I'm glad you've figured out how to insert images. Good work Kay! You're makes look beautiful and your excitement is contageous.

    Thank you so much.....I think I'll still 'insert a picture' now and again, just for the nostalgia 😁😁😁. I really enjoyed the challenge of making those, but I'll be doing a couple of simpler makes next, to give my brain a rest 😂😂

    Thank you so much😁. It took me far longer than it should to get this one done! I just love the little jacket too.....I'll have to make one to match for me 😅😅😅

    I love your videos! You’ve done great work. I’ve made the McCalls shirt dress recently with the slimmer skirt, but chose to flare the skirt to an A line shape and I loved it. Make note of the back gathers. I didn’t like those, so I chose to put in darts. I’ll be playing around more with this pattern, but I really liked the finished dress. Happy sewing! 💖

    Thank you so much. Good to hear that you made that McCalls pattern. I was thinking of altering the skirt to give it a bit more flare, so hearing how you did it is very encouraging, thank you. And thanks for the tip about the gathers, you are a star 😘

    I've made those trousers twice... Making the pockets took longer than assembling the rest of the pieces! But they are my most-worn trousers (made from a tablecloth!!)

    I completely agree! I felt as if I'd been sewing for days and I'd only got two pockets on 😆. But like you, I love them and they are going to get a lot of wear. Love that you made yours from a tablecloth, that's amazing 😃😍

    Thank you 😊 not having a good day ( family health issues) just watched you and its brightened my day. Love what you've sewn , love the shirt and cargos. Is there any shirt dress patterns that are drop waisted so the tiers start at hip level? Also you are the 1st vlogger I've seen that's shown a prima pattern!! I thought they were taboo or something 😂 I've got loads! Keep up the enthusiasm and keep spreading the joy. ❤

    Oh the prima August 2024 latest pattern is a princess seam shirt dress, you could adapt it ? Love the bag too 🥰

    Hi, I'm so sorry you are not having the greatest day, I'm sending a big old hug via the airwaves. I love the Prima patterns, made a few in the past. Maybe the ...er...younger vloggers don't buy Prima 🤷‍♀️. Yes I saw the latest pattern. I'm going to have a crack at making the waistcoat version first so I can get a reasonable fit. Hoping things get better for you xx

    Came because I wanted to tell you you’ve got a mug perched on top of your sewing machine and I hope it’s empty, stayed because I want you to move in next door and be my best friend 😂

    What a nice comment, that's so lovely 😍. It is an empty mug and it's from my favourite cafe in Manchester, Nibble ☕️🍰. I'd love to have a best friend next door, we'd have a blast 😅😅. Until that happens, I'm trying to convert as many of my unsuspecting friends as I can to sewing 😂😂😂😂

    No, no, can you be my best friend! But I live in Perth, Western Australia, so we can’t live next door. Love your sense of humour, your presentation is so fun. We are similar ages and I agree about the gathers at the waist. I’ve made that shirt dress, and it wasn’t the best. New subscriber.

    If you can set your camera/phone more level with you shoulder height/torso it will be easier to show of all your nice and fun things.

    Oh thank you, that's really useful advice. I do feel a bit like I'm trying to juggle whilst filming. I'll give it a go next time 👍🥰
