    I’m sorry to hear about Miles’ healthðŸ˜Ē. Senior pups are the absolute best, but it’s so hard. I have a 10 year old dachshund and this past year has been a bit rough for him, so I feel you on the worries.

    So sorry to hear about miles’ health, no matter what type of animal you have as a pet, they always find a place in your heart and are part of you and your life, so it’s heartbreaking when they deteriorate.
    Your makes are always so lovely and you are so incredibly talented âĪ love the bunny especially - your nephew is going to love it!

    Thank you for another great video. I understand your worry about your Miles. Try and take some comfort in that, as far as he's concerned, he's just living his life with his family that loves him ðŸŒļ.

    I do!! I do have a double gauze set! I second your emotion haha. I love your lavender set 😍 I did mine as PJs, and had enough fabric for shorts and long pants, used the Agnes pJs for all pieces. The double gauze will grow in length. I noticed it more on the long pants, but I've always had to lengthen sleeves, so mine end just about right. Love your photo bomber as well!😉

    The Oona dress looks brilliant on you! That colour is amazing.
    I have had some double gauze in my stash for actual years, and you _almost_ had me thinking I should make some up into a shirt. But then I remembered I don't like being told what to do 😂. Maybe one day. Yours looks great.

    Great video Valerie! It was because of your recommendation that I bought and made the Haralson bag by Noodlehead and I’m so happy with it! Now I want to make ALL the bags! Sending much love to Myles! âĪ

    Question about the collar, pockets and cuffs: did you stretch out and iron the double gauze? Or did you just leave it loose-ish (like double gauze is)? I have a cut (FROM STASH IN VT!) that I think would be perfect for this set. And then I could be SET-TACULAR!

      @deannemarino1382 10 āļŦāļĨāļēāļĒāđ€āļ”āļ·āļ­āļ™āļāđˆāļ­āļ™

      I'm guessing the interfacing decision may be related...

      @what_valerie_makes  10 āļŦāļĨāļēāļĒāđ€āļ”āļ·āļ­āļ™āļāđˆāļ­āļ™ +1

      I didn't iron basically at all. I gave it a light press before I cut out my pattern pieces and then a few times throughout. Mostly if I needed to fold a piece over onto itself (like the placket and cuffs) I would press down and lift straight up so I wouldn't stretch out the piece. Hope that makes sense😊

    I love your makes, they’re gorgeous and your choice of fabrics is terrific. Please may I say (without causing any offence, hopefully) that I think you are absolutely beautiful in a natural goddess, sorta way. I realise in these (possibly over policed) PC days that commenting on people’s attributes is frowned upon, but what can I say, I’m 58 and old skool 😊. I also belong to the old skool ways of telling people when you see something wonderful in them 😊. Happy sewing lovely lady ðŸ§ĩ😊ðŸ§ĩ
