Weekly Sewing Vlog! | Big sleeves, big plans, and lacy blouses!
Two miraculous things happened this week:
1. I actually got enough sewing done to create a videos worth of content
2. I actually picked up a camera and filmed a videos worth of content
It isn't the making video I'd hoped to come back with and present to you, but it is a start! These projects were a great way to get back into sewing - in that they were interesting and fun to work on, but not overly complicated. And this video was a good way to get back into editing, too.
I'll have another update video soon, and be responding to some messages and comments from the last week. But for the most part me and my dog are doing better. I really appreciate the concern and all of your kind comments on my last post. I hope you and your families (that includes your pets!) are doing well too & thank you for the support! <3

I can so relate to feeling in a drag and out of it. I need to be functioning and I usually do but right now I have no idea how I usually do it. Hang in there. Your progress videos actually give me a boost to work on stuff!
Glad to see your video! Thanks for the updates <3 take care!
Your videos are so full of goodies I have to watch them a couple of times to get everything. Like a good sitcom, you'll have to watch it multiple times to get all the jokes (yes, I'm talking about Tina Fey's creations).
Great to see you sewing again! Congrats on the new patterns, too. I have been trying to work with lace over another fabric, so this was quite informative on how to do that. Looking forward to seeing the wrapper completed. Sew on!
Quality over quantity! Even if you only put out one video a YEAR, yours will still be my favourites to watch. You talk through your projects in a level of detail I haven't found anywhere else and you are always creating unique garments that are incredible to watch come together. Your aesthetic is original and gorgeous and your personality is authentic and warm. Please don't feel pressured to set your goalposts based on what you see other creators doing, because there's nobody else on the entire internet doing what you do!
This comment is so sweet, thank you, I really really appreciate that. It's hard to not look at other people and compare but I'm trying my best!
Where is the bat and broom fabric from?
The collection is called "Sleepy Hollow" - I bought it through Fat quarter shop, but I'm sure lots of quilt fabric retailers sell it!
Lovely to have you back. Keep on going. Thank you
Angela YOU ARE SO FREAKING TALENTED, so happy to see you both doing a bit better. Every single one of your videos is a pleasure to watch... you literally taught me so sew. If you need longer breaks between videos take it. Don't put pressure on yourself or compare yourself to others. You are wonderful and so is your work. This whole world situation is rubbish and its totally ok to not be ok.
You are so sweet, thank you so much! <3
So happy you are feeling better! It's really a drag when you feel depressed. It's hard to be in good spirits now, with everything going on in our Country and the world. So glad sewing is lifting you up and to see your newest patterns in person must give you a special feeling that will help keep you going. Thank you for the outfits today. They are stunning, absolutely stunning. You are so talented and it's so nice of you to share your talents with us. Keep resting, eat well, get sleep and have great dreams!
Thank you so much! I think it has been a struggle for everyone these past months. And yes, it was quite lovely to see them in person! :)
LOVE!!! Glad you guys are feeling better. And the dress is way fun.
So happy to see your face again. ^_^ take your time. You don’t need to promise us the world or make it up to us by posting extra content or anything. Wishing you and Gwen all the best. <3
LOVe these well done 👍🏻
Awww welcome back!! So happy to see you again. Love the hair, and take care of yourself xx
Yay! Welcome back. ❤️ So excited to see you again.
Always a joy to see you and your brilliant mind for sewing patterns.
I’ve got all four of your latest patterns. I want to use the hat pattern to make a pumpkin hat like the one you did last Halloween. I hope your next McCalls pattern is that wrapper dress. Glad to see you’re feeling better.
It would be a great base for that! And I will definitely consider pitching it to them :)
I am so glad both of you are doing better!!!
