It’s interesting how many sewists are aiming to slow down and to use better quality materials. ‘Tis a fact that all people who work in the arts end up at this very juncture. People who have painted for years want better paint and canvases. Musicians upgrade their instruments. Even cooks go down the rabbit holes of unique food and better cookware and tools and more difficult techniques. And all serious artists begin to covet more time and focus on details when they realize their skill is genuine. I say, Bravo! You are a sewing artist!
The best faux leather I have ever used in my 60 years of sewing is Ultrasuede. It can be thrown in the washer and dryer and looks fabulous. It’s a bit pricy, but, you get what you pay for…best of luck on your next pair of pants…
Its a lovely vlog. The fabric is gor xxgeous. I didnt know about Rainbow fabrics. I must look. Your plans sound lovely. I will look forward to seeing your makes. Ues a sew slow now and not rush
Thank you SO much for showing your sewing fail! So many sewists don't do that but it's comforting to know that even awesomely talented sewists mess up too.
Am totally with you on slowing down, and trying to use up my stash rather than just buying more. Also will be trying to stretch myself with jeans and swimwear... And maybe bras... I've also started the rose cafe bustier but not finished it 😬🙄😂
That chocolate brown chiffon with the pink flowers is absolutely stunning!! I cannot wait to see it made up! I’m excited about your sewing plans this year! I had all but quit sewing, but you have inspired me to take it up again! Thank you!😍❤❤❤
Your fabrics are so beautiful.I saw the blue herringbone wool but they only had a small amount left.I am really looking forward to it being made.Don't forget to use slippery fabric to line the sleeves so it slips on and off easily.
They sell out so quickly sometimes! Hopefully he'll have another wool drop soon. Thank you, I've got a satin type fabric for the lining so that should be okay I hope. I'm not sure whether to add a layer of fleece or something inbetween for extra warmth but then I wouldn't be able to wear it in the Spring 🤔❤️
Would definitely be interested in a vid about fabrics and how to tell what is good quality! I’m a newbie sewer and it’s so overwhelming trying to find good fabric that will last and is way to work with 😂
So good to see a new video from you! Will you be at the Stitch Festival again this year? Weirdly, I bought the exact same fabric as you for the McCall M7969, and seeing your video of how it turned out I’ve changed my mind 😂 Can’t wait to see how all these plans turn out for you!
Thank you so much for watching! I'm hoping to go again, possibly on the Friday but our calendar is busy that weekend because of a couple of big family birthdays. I'm desperate to squeeze it in somewhere though! Ah that fabric is so gorgeous! Have you thought of what you're going to make instead? M7969 was not for me 😂
@@ginaseams If you do manage to squeeze it in, I’d love to see another vlog from you. I bought tickets for the Thursday after seeing your video from last year, it’ll be my first sewing convention(?) Is that the right term? I haven’t yet found another pattern for the length of fabric I have, I’m still quite new to sewing my own clothes so I went through the obligatory right of passage of buying all the pretty fabrics with no idea of what to make with them 😂 so this year is very much geared towards trying to use fabrics I already own.
Great plans - looking forward to see your makes! Am also a comfort sewer looking to push my boundaries more this year, and to focus more on finishing and fit rather racing to the finish line and ignoring little issues which detract from the final product.
You can do it! I'm totally the same with rushing to finish, I get carried away and then kick myself at the end when the details aren't right. It's our creative minds over working I think 😆
Great vlog! I have exactly the same problem with holding on to fabrics in case I use them in a project which doesn't do them justice! I need to just get the fabrics made I think!
It's so tough isn't it, unless I'm totally sure on a pattern first I then start second guessing myself! This is our year to sew those pretty fabrics ❤️
Love all your fabric, so beautiful. And definitely watch tomcat stitchery. She got her feau leather at Minerva. I think it's part of their core range! Looking forward to seeing some of those beautiful fabric sewn up! 😍
Lovely ideas Gina I am sure they will all be amazing. I am trying to use up fabric so on a ban so far so good. I am hopefully going use up what I have. Thank you for all the hard work x
hi dear how are you i watch your program often your choice is very good and you know a lot about clothes i want to ask you a question are you doing this properly or just at home I fulfill my passion

Thank you! I can't wait to get them all sewn up ☺️ it's definitely worth checking out Rainbow Fabrics, so many bargains ❤️
I love your sewing room 😍
Whitney at Tomkat stitchery just dropped a sew the look video with faux leather pants
I will check it out, thanks so much ❤️
Thank you SO much for showing your sewing fail! So many sewists don't do that but it's comforting to know that even awesomely talented sewists mess up too.
Of course! I do it too often not to show it 😂❤️
The green and white fabric I see a dress with puffy sleeves
Yes!! Puff sleeves are my favourite 😍
Am totally with you on slowing down, and trying to use up my stash rather than just buying more. Also will be trying to stretch myself with jeans and swimwear... And maybe bras... I've also started the rose cafe bustier but not finished it 😬🙄😂
Amazing!! Jeans are a huge project, that's so exciting. Glad it's not just me, one day we will finish it 😂❤️
That chocolate brown chiffon with the pink flowers is absolutely stunning!! I cannot wait to see it made up! I’m excited about your sewing plans this year! I had all but quit sewing, but you have inspired me to take it up again! Thank you!😍❤❤❤
Wow, this is so wonderful to hear 🥹How exciting for you to be back into it! Happy sewing and enjoy ❤️❤️

I have made that coat and it is a lovely pattern. Comes together quickly and no snags. It'll look lovely in that wool.
Exciting! I started it this week and so far so good but I'm only on the lining 😆❤️
Would definitely be interested in a vid about fabrics and how to tell what is good quality! I’m a newbie sewer and it’s so overwhelming trying to find good fabric that will last and is way to work with 😂
It is a minefield out there! So difficult when you're starting out! I'll get planning that video asap ❤️❤️
So good to see a new video from you! Will you be at the Stitch Festival again this year?
Weirdly, I bought the exact same fabric as you for the McCall M7969, and seeing your video of how it turned out I’ve changed my mind 😂

Watch Whitney’s video from today at TomKat Stitchery. She did a whole video on the Minerva soft faux leather!!!

Your wish is my command, I'll get working on those asap 😆 thank you so much ❤️
@@ginaseams oh to have such power haha! Exciting :)
Thanks for the inspiration Gina. I like the idea of make 9 but I'm also a very slow sewist so I've made myself a make 5 this year 😁
Yes, great idea!! Much better to have goals that feel within your reach and I'm all for the slow sewing this year too ❤️
Love all your fabric, so beautiful. And definitely watch tomcat stitchery. She got her feau leather at Minerva. I think it's part of their core range! Looking forward to seeing some of those beautiful fabric sewn up! 😍
Thank you so much! I'm going to watch her video shortly, I've just had a quick look and it looks exactly what I've been searching for ❤️
Lovely ideas Gina I am sure they will all be amazing. I am trying to use up fabric so on a ban so far so good. I am hopefully going use up what I have. Thank you for all the hard work x
Thank you so much! Amazing work sticking to your fabric ban that takes some serious strength 😆 xx
Have you seen the patterns on pinterest for sewing for less...are they any good?
hi dear how are you i watch your program often your choice is very good and you know a lot about clothes i want to ask you a question are you doing this properly or just at home I fulfill my passion
Hiya, I'm good thank you how are you? Thanks so much for watching! I'm just a home sewer at the moment, doing it for fun ☺️
I won't use any foux leather. To my its uncomfortable.
