Lovely to see you back Cath and I look forward to seeing your plans unfold over the year. You are multi talented with your sewing/crafting and I have learnt a lot from you so thank you ❤
Thank you so much ❤️
What a fun catch-up video. I love how you find creative ways to use up leftover yarn and fabric.
Thank you very much 😊
Happy and healthy 2024 to you and your family. Your crochet bags are beautiful. Lucky family. I’m sure the children will have loved their cats and kittens. You are so talented and everything comes out so professional.
Thank you so much. Wishing you and your family a happy, healthy 2024 too 😊
I love making lots of those little boxy zipper bags for knitting projects. Small ones for socks and bigger dopp kit sized ones for light sweaters. We have two cats who love wool so all knitting project bags must be able to zip up around here.
That’s a fab use for boxy zipper bags! How cute that your cats love wool 😄
Cath those crochet bags are exquisite!!! So lovely, you're so generous and talented, wonderful job❤
Thank you so much! 😊❤️
Your projects are all so beautiful.I'm very inspired.
Thanks so much, I’m so glad my video has inspired you.
fun to hear your catch up Cath. all the crocheted bags are very pretty. your niece's bag is adorable! How clever to use all those scraps together. xx Karen
Thanks so much Karen, I really enjoyed making the little crochet bag for my niece, I was really happy with how the scraps all looked together 😊 xx
Thank you Cath, you've inspired me to hunt through my yarn stash for some simple crochet projects. I think a crochet cat lined and filled with sand would make an adorable door stop.
Oh yes that really would make an adorable door stop!
You are so generous with your time to crochet those lovely bags for your family! Happy New Year Cath & thank you for your vlogmas, I loved following along with you xx
Happy New Year 😊 thanks so much for watching my Vlogmas, I’m so glad you enjoyed it xx
Hi Cath lovely to see you
Happy new year
You have been so busy the little cats are adorable and the bags as well they will have been well received I’m sure
I’ve been buying fabric and wool today so I’ve got plenty of projects to do
The knitting kit looks amazing the colour is lovely for spring and summer looks so much fun
Have a good week Cath sending lots of love
I’m pleased to see you are feeling better now see you next time xx❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hi Paula
Happy New Year
Thanks I really enjoyed making all the crochet presents 😊
Sounds exciting to have bought new fabric and wool for some new projects, it’s always fun to make new crafting plans isn’t it 😊
Thanks I’m really looking forward to starting the knitting kit! I haven’t done a wool and the gang kit for a while.
Hope you have a good week too 😊❤️❤️❤️ xx
Thank you Cath see you soon xx❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love your kitties! You are sooooooooooooooo talented to be able to crochet and knit to beautifully.
Thank you so much! I really enjoyed making the kitties!
Cath, your crochet kitties & bags are amazing. So darling & lovely 🌻🌻🌻
Thank you very much! 😊😊🩷
Lovely crochet bags, and those kitties are adorable! I haven't done too many crochet projects in awhile, so maybe I'll make a kitty family for my girls. 🙂 You could actually turn those into little owls too, if you add a beak instead of nose, crochet little circles to put under the eyes, make little leaf-shaped wings, and leave off the tail.
Your green fabric is beautiful as well. I don't know if the fabric is right or if you have enough, but it would make another pretty Orage dress.
Thank you for sharing all your projects. 🙂
Thank you very much!
Ahh the kitties would be so cute turned into little owls! 😍
The Orage dress would be a really pretty match for the green fabric! Thanks! I’m not sure if I have enough but I will check
`
Your kitties are so cute! That Wool and the Gang sweater is going to be wonderful! I think that color will be beautiful on you! Happy New Year!
Happy New Year! Thank you I am really looking forward to knitting the sweater!
Lovely catch up video. Love the crochet bags - just stunning ❤
Thank you very much 😊❤️
I totally made that same fibre mood top with the same Joni fabric. I love it❤ I never thought of wearing it with a turtle neck. It’s very nice. Luckily I just made one.
I was happy to be able to find a way to make it work for colder weather. Hope you enjoy wearing yours 🩷
I really like your top with the Freya .
Thank you very much, I was really happy to find the colours matched so well
Wishing you and your family a very happy 2024, I got a Glorafilia floral paisley tote bag kit for Christmas, which should be fun to make up 🥰
Thank you very much 😊❤️ that sounds like a really fun and pretty bag project, happy sewing 🥰 wishing you and your family a very happy new year too!
Thanks for sharing Cath. 🧶🍓💙🌈
You’re very welcome 😊🩷💙🧵
I'm so happy that I waited (didn't get around to...😅) Making my copy cat Tanita. I'm going to make it like yours now from the outset. Looks much comfier
Hope you enjoy sewing yours! Yes it’s definitely more comfy without the elastic in the hem!
Happy new year 🎉🎉 so pleased to see you again and I’m glad you’re feeling better xx.
Happy New Year! Thank you very much 😊❤️ xx
Happy new year. Thank you for sharing about the two crochet bags you made. Beautiful. Have purchased the pattern and wool as a birthday present for my crochet loving daughter. Very grateful for the inspiration!
Happy new year. I hope your daughter enjoys crocheting the bag as much as I did! 😊
Happy New Year. Can’t wait to see your jumper progress. A lovely colour and will really suit you. Xx
Thank you very much, I’m really looking forward to knitting the jumper 😊 Happy New Year xx
Your makes are so beautiful Cath your family obviously appreciate your makes my mum has just given away two makes I made for her that she’d ask for, it’s a bit disappointing. I love making for others
Thank you very much 😊 It is lovely making for others isn’t it, a labour of love
The green velvet will look beautiful on you. I’m sure you can get a dress out of it even though it has to be cut all in the same direction. Simple lines look best with velvet anyway.
I love the color! I believe U are tall enuf 2 rock that as a tunic with a pair of wide black party trousers! (rock that? my term 4 own the look, look great in it!). Ciao.
Thank you very much, yes I would like to be able to get a simple dress out of the velvet if I can - fingers crossed 😊🤞
Thank you, it’s such a pretty colour isn’t it!
The stretch velvet would make a lovely Cardi unless it's really thin. With some matching rib knit maybe a Harper Cardi from Sinclair free pdf. When though the pattern doesn't include buttons etc ....I added buttons. It's turned into a fav Cardi for me.
Thank you, I’ll check out the Harper cardigan!
Happy New Year to you too Cath! That was an excellent video……lovely makes …you are so inspiring! I watch a lot of sewing videos but always find yours as the best. Thank so much for sharing your lovely makes! 😊
Thanks so much Isobel, that’s really lovely to hear 😊 Happy New Year!
Happy New year. I really enjoyed your vlog. I too added crochet to my crafty hobbies and also made my daughter little cat over the Christmas. I really love those bags that you made and definitely will add to my gifts for 8 year old girl’s project and my add those kitties with it. Oh my .. too many hobbies and not enough time in a day 😂. I also love the velvet fabric and something simple and not over complicated would suit that fabric very well (maybe a pinafore style of dress or skirt? ). I look forward to your future videos.
Happy New Year, I hope you enjoy crocheting an All About Ami bag, I found them so fun to make. Thanks yes I agree I think something simple will be nice in the velvet too 😊
Happy New Year Cath. Loved the adorable crochet makes, you have some very lucky family members. Looking forward to see your plans video. 😊
Thanks so much Cath 😊 Happy New Year
Happy new year, Cath! You really are an inspiration to me!
Happy New Year Tammy! Thank you so much! 😊
Happy New Year Cath! I hope you enjoyed your break! It’s good to see you again. Great projects, as usual!
Happy New Year! Thank you, it’s good to be back 😊
Hi Cath. Beautiful Top.
Thank you very much 😊
Hello there Cath. Happy New Year. Wishing you and your family peace, love and happiness.
Just love all your makes. You're so thoughtful with your Xmas present makes. The kitties are just adorable and those bags look lovely. Thank you for sharing.
As always, looking forward to your next vlog. ❤
Thank you so much 😊 Happy New Year to you too ❤️
Happy new year Cath to you and your family. What absolutely beautiful makes, you must be so pleased with them all. The green velvet fabric is stunning, i purchased the same fabric in a really rich blue also from Guthrie Ghani. Such a lovely quality, i was in the process of making the Adrienne top when my overlocker broke!!!! Still awaiting new parts. Thank you for your video.
Happy New Year! Thank you, I really enjoyed all of the projects I shared in this video, the variety was a lot of fun. The blue colour of the stretch velvet is gorgeous too! I was very tempted by that one! Oh no hope your new overlocker parts arrive soon! The fabric will be so lovely as an Adrienne top!
Some great inspiration, loved the jumper and crochet ideas. I’ve wanted to make a zip up pouch for ages so I will get on with it this weekend ! Thank you for sharing x
Thank you very much! I hope your enjoy sewing your zip up pouch this weekend! X
Happy New Year, Cath. I love all your makes, you have been busy! :) You are multi-talented & so accomplished at them all, thanks so much for sharing with us. Have a lovely week xXx

Great and varied makes Cath. Really want yo learn to crochet if I can. Happy New Year
Thanks so much 😊 I found the Bella Coco TH-cam tutorials great for learning the basics of crochet. Happy New Year
Happy New Year. I've just started crochet recently and your makes are very inspiring. I'd love to make the kitties once I can master the magic ring!
Happy New Year. Good luck with your crochet. I found the Bella Coco magic ring tutorial on TH-cam to be very good 😊
Oh, thanks for the suggestion, I'll check that out and keep practicing!
Happy New Year! Loved your vlogmas. Glad to see you back 🤩
Thank you so much! Happy New Year!
@@madebycathcraft happy new year 🤩
Happy New Year. Love your makes. They are so creative! I can't figure out which are my favorites. Love the cats,bags and 👝.
Thank you very much 😊 Happy New Year!
Happy new year Cath ❤️ I wish you and your family all the best this year 🙂 You made so many lovely gifts 😍 the bags are really cute 🥰
Happy New Year ❤️ thank you very much, I really enjoyed making the bags, I’m a little sad I’ve finished them all now 😄🥰
@@madebycathcraft there's always new projects to make! 😊 I'm starting a new one myself, a sweater for spring and a camisole I'm finishing 🥰 God bless, Dora
Hi Cath. I have a question. The beautiful bags you made, how long does it take to get them dry or how do you dry them while blocking them. I do block my knits but they seam to take way too long to dry. I love how much amazing crafting you manage to fit in. Just amazing ❤❤
Hi there, for the bags I didn’t soak them, to block them I pinned them to my blocking boards and then steam blocked with my steam iron. So they got a bit wet from the steam but weren’t soaked through so they dried very quickly. Hope that helps 😊❤️
@@madebycathcraft Thank you. I will definitely try that.❤❤
@@create_something_pretty you’re very welcome x
