Thank you very much! I enjoyed your video and will learn from it when I go for the Camino walk next year!
Sewing rage, no, but sewing tears, 100%! You did great Catherine!
Hehe, I can't even start a decluttering project if the house is upside down! I can't do anything! The house has to be tidy or I feel like "I shouldn't be doing this!"
I had a swarm latch onto a shrub in my front yard, so I called a local beekeeper to collect them, he didn't wear the space suit he just took the Queen off the branch, popped her in a cardboard box and waited for the other bees to join her. I stood with him in the middle of it all, they were so gentle, unforgettable experience 😊🐝🌻
11:48 Pooh and friends <3 Love all the edibles worked in everywhere!
Just a thought, maybe ‘D’ rings would work on the straps?
Well done, you did a great job. Maybe very big press studs on the ties. The bows overwhelm your small frame. 💕
Always loved your garden! It's so dreamy 😊
Catherine you’ve done an amazing job on this sewing project. Lining and color are perfect on you and I love the bows, too cute and such a nice change from buttons. The kittens are adorable and kittens pulling your pins was too cute…. Little helper hehe I have a sewing machine and have seen small stuff but not enough confidence to tackle bigger projects like clothing. Well done my friend. ❤❤
Hi Catherine. Those are adorable! Loved the incite into using a pattern and that colour really suits you. Would definitely love more sewing videos☺️
My book arrived in Mel, Australia from Easons about 2 /3 weeks ago. Looking forward to doing some of the garden projects once spring arrives. (We're going into winter here!) DIY Gran
I wish I sneezed as cute as you ❤
Hi Catherine, I received a signed copy of your second book during the second week in May. I love it 😍 You go girl! You are such an inspiration ☀️
Adorable! Since you cannot make buttonholes, use large snaps instead, then sew a button to the front of the strap.
Nice live & learn😊
Thanks for sharing. I need to make myself some of these!
Uv done great I love them might just have to get a pattern as I always were the dress dungarees x
The red dress for Chelsey trip, Catherine I love the "sewing rage" I usually have to take Tylenol before I sew.
I love it! Well done!
Loved this video Catherine! I know exactly what you mean about minimalism - as I’ve got older, I’ve realised I’m not quite into materialistic things as I was when I was younger. I’m definitely I felt trying to adopt the “less is more” attitude these days. It’s all about making memories for me, so I’d rather spend my money on experiences and days out/travel/theatre than clothes. I have way too many lol😅😅😅😅
Oh My! You blouse is gorgeous! And where do you find such beautiful bed linens?
P.S. Might I suggest Helen’s. Closet patterns. They are divine.
Hello my dear. I have watched your garden grow for some time now. I love your greenhouse and all the colors you have in the garden. Just like you, I started my indoor plants during the pandemic. I started the garden many years ago. I love the projects you create since I love projects in the garden also. I enjoy watching. Keep up the great work. 👍👍👍👍
Please do more sewing videos following a pattern 😊
I'm thinking pockets and ties in the matching stripe pattern would be really cute. 🙂
Love the colour thank you for sharing
I also experience sewing rage. At least once with every project I throw my fabric with a grunt. Currently I have a length of sweet Liberty fabric in a London theme that I'm going to make curtains for my office. I've had the fabric for months and am indecisive about what I want them to look like.
Is there anything you can't do 😊 You are amazing. Great job!
Since you made dungarees for the garden, wouldn't it be cute if you added some floral and/or "bees" embroidery details to it.
You're doing great! When I get "sewing fatigue", I stop what I'm doing, turn off the sewing machine, tidy up my sewing space, and start back up the next day. This gives me time to reflect on what I've done and plan the next steps. I take a very long time to finish a project as I trying my best for my project to come out perfect.
This is very wise ❤
Could you put wide elastic in the straps?
Yep....I'm one of the mildest tempered people I know, but as a friend once said "retrieve all pets and small children and retreat to minimise safe distance" when I sew😅
How adorable 😍 very cute ❤
Hi Catherine great job you can make button holes by hand google it ❤❤ hope this helps
They look wonderful - well done! I love the tie straps, and the lining.
Thank you so much! X
Your left, bow, defo. Add darts to front panel to tailor it and bring it in, or elastic hidden to inside front, or to back, or tabs with popper buttons. Lots of options to bring in. Love those dungas ❤❤❤
Great job. They look cute on you
wow Catherine you are so talented. Great video 😍 love the cats joining it too x
You've done a fabulous job x
What did you use to glue the trim onto the wardrobe love your videos . Thanks for all your tips . Have been following you from the beginning. Well done on your channel.
They're lovely. The air is blue around me when I sew...oh, the bad language I use in two languages.
So cute. Well done 😂
Very nice!
Definitely the left bow is better. They look great, front pocket would be fun in the striped material maybe. Certainly inspired to dust off my sewing machine.
Love this! Cute!
Thank you Catherine for taking us along with you. It was so lovely,i loved all the flower displays,they were so beautiful🌻😊. I wish your mum a speedy recovery.
I’m so keen to start sewing clothes again. The only time I seem to pull out my machine these days is to do quick repairs and alterations for my family. I got a new overlocker for Christmas and I still haven’t used it.
Oooh I hope you got some inspo 🩷 you’ll have to find the right project and you will be flying then!
ha ha ... of course we're still here 😊😊
Left side it’s more prettyyyyy…👌👌👌👌
Super cute dungarees! Great job Catherine.
