    Hello Rachel, great vlog. I have to thank you for introducing me to a new bag pattern company I had not seen before, In Complete Stitches. Wow so many great bag patterns on their website, I was spoilt for choice! Well done for winning a prize. Great jeans by the way. I personally don’t wear jeans,…….ready to wear trousers yes, but that’s just me! I hope you had a super time at your afternoon tea frocktails, sounds like fun on a bus 🚌. Have a good week, happy sewing 🧵

    Great job with your jeans, which look fab ❤. When I made mine I used up over 1 reel of topstitching thread. Also used coverstitch machine to chain stitch hems and decorate pockets and attached rivets which give the perfect finishing touch. I share your joy at having jeans which are long enough! Lovely Jarrah too! 👌🤩👏 perfect !

    • @TheFrenchSeams_vlog
      @TheFrenchSeams_vlog  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you sue! Ok I don’t feel so bad having used all that thread so 😂
      That finish sounds amazing. I’m hoping to have a cover stitch some day!!!
      Yes! Jeans that actually are full length is an absolute joy!!!
      Thanks so much for watching!

    Have fun at the Afternoon Tea wearing your pretty pink dress. Your jeans look amazing, well done. In my family we all draw names at Christmas. I've decided to make my daughter a backpack style tote bag. I'm hoping i can find some interesting vintage curtain fabric as the main fabric. If not I'm sure there will be something in the stash I can use. No personal sewing for me this week. I had to make a bridesmaid's dress quite a bit smaller and am now working on a mother of the bride dress that is a few sizes too small. Luckily I have extra fabric from making the dress shorter.

    • @TheFrenchSeams_vlog
      @TheFrenchSeams_vlog  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I knew you would love making jeans and do an awesome job of them 👏🏼. They look pretty perfect to me. Back Pocket placement is quite an important part of jeans I've discovered, I need mine high as my bottom is getting flatter 😂. I normally try and copy an existing pair of jeans I have to find out where to put them.
    That finished Izzy quilt looks amazing, I really wasn't sure how it would all look at the end being different colours etc but yes, it looks so cute! Original quilts would have been a complete mixture of fabrics, so all matchy matchy like we do now.
    What a productive week with the bags as well xx

    • @TheFrenchSeams_vlog
      @TheFrenchSeams_vlog  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Ah thanks Carole! I had so much fun making them. Yes coping an existing pair is a good idea! I’m going to do that to help me with the rise.
      Izzys blocks are so great! And mine is a complete mish mash but it worked out ok in the end. Using up my odds and sods 😉
      It was a very productive week! Thanks as always for watching and hope you’re having a good week xx

    Great jeans Rachael. I have made 2 jarrahs in lightweight jersey but didn’t face the tie because I thought it would make it bulky. What are your thoughts as yours doesn’t look at all bulky? 😊

    • @TheFrenchSeams_vlog
      @TheFrenchSeams_vlog  4 หลายเดือนก่อน
