I started listened to Fake Heiress yesterday and I ended up listening to all of the episodes! It was brilliant. I'm going to get the book now! Thanks for the recommendation. I do love things that are based on a true story.
Love the dress- great fan of fortunately -with Fi and Jane - hilarious over 50’s just talking about life from that perspective - as well as interesting interviews with wide range of guests . Looking forward to stitch show
Love that dress Kate! I agree you could make a size smaller, you kept pulling the shoulder up! I really want that pattern. I quite like thw Sissy dress though I think it may accentuate my fat tummy! The podcasts seem interesting, I will go and have a 'listen'. I've put that like that because I am profoundly deaf. I do have a few low sounds so, if I turn the volume right up, I may 'hear' it. I can do with a good laugh. The second one reminds me of the film Catch me if You Can. That was based on a true story where this chap conned his way round the world, even flew planes pretending to be a pilot! He was a master forger and, after he was caught, was employed by whoever it was to weed out forgeries! Brilliant film I wouldn't have looked twice at if my middle son hadn't told me to watch it. I am so glad he did. Thank you for this video. I always look forward to seeing you. Oh! I always admire your flowers.
I love your dress Kate; I think I’m going to have to break my purdah and buy that pattern! (I especially love those drapey bishop sleeves and your elastic hack.) I’m really glad you’ve got your sojo back; I’m itching to make myself a frock but I’m starting a tweed tote for a friend first. I know she’ll like it and I’ve got a lot to thank her for. As usual, I really enjoyed your round up, thank you for posting it:))
Love you and the Fold Line. I think you will be happier with your dress if you tighten up, shorten, the back neck line. I don't think you need a smaller size all over. For this dress I would hand sew an elastic thread from shoulder to shoulder through the back neck and tighten it up a little.
Wonderful video-and I enjoy your "yabbering"-:+)! Your dress is gorgeous, and when you stood up,-"I thought she could go down a size"!!!! LOL! Love all your suggestions, and look forward to checking them out! Have a fab week!!
Hi Kate! I always look forward to your videos! It feels like having a nice chat with a good friend 🤗 I love the fabric on you! We have it available in our shop ecofashionfabrics.com. As well as many of the other mind the maker printed viscose fabrics.
Hooray! The fabric for your dress is lovely. I bet if you wanted the look of the ties at the sleeve cuffs with more practicality you could still use elastic but formalize the casing and add a permanent accent tie that’s stitched in place. You could get the look without sipping into your lunch.
Thanks a bunch for your lovely and informative blog......always looking forward to your blog. Will definitely consider the Cissy dress.....the flowers are an important character in your story, don't you think...greetings from California
The flowers make me very happy on a daily basis and as I work from home I decided to use the money I'd use on travel for something I enjoy! Yes the Cissy is a fab shape and reckon it would look great on everyone!
Lovely dress Kate colour really suits. I love cut flowers to and tried Freddie’s Flowers they are good but as not in London the extra miles wasn’t sustainable so source locally, cheaper as well of course. Look forward to your next pattern review
Yes I appreciate that out of London you might want to find something locally, they really are something that has become really important to me. They make me happy on a daily basis!
Just a heads up that no trains will be running to Kings Cross station on the weekend of the Stitch Festival (29th Feb & 1st March) since there are works on the East line. A shame since I was planning to go but live in Scotland and flying is just a pain. Maybe next year! Love your videos :)
Thank you! Don't worry, all trains will be going into Kings Cross St Pancreas instead, which is 1 minute walk from the normal Kings Cross station. Hope to see you there!
Not for the trains from Scotland I'm afraid. Only option is to connect somewhere else and get to Euston and it makes the journey a lot longer! Maybe next year :)
Love the dress and very happy to see that you have made something new. I asked you about the flowers and the vases last year about 8 months ago, I sure wish I could use the link but I doubt that he could pedal to the states. I wonder if maybe they will send them? Will definitely be checking on it. I have to find the story about the heiress, there are many things that you suggest that I have really enjoyed. I actually just watched the Modern Love series again and continue to listen to the podcast. Can't wait for the bee!
Ha it might be a little too far to pedal the flowers to you!! So pleased we've sent some stuff you've enjoyed your way. The Modern love series is amazing I think I'm going to rewatch it too!
Hi Sammy - not sure yet. The show is much bigger than the spring one as we were worried we'd get a bit lost. It's deffo on our radar though, and will let you know if we do!
I cannot believe Isaac Singer manufactured a sewing machine that sewed at 900 stitches per minute. The basic to mid range modern Singer sewing machines available at Spotlight here in Australia sew at about 750 stitches per minute. We are being conned with some of the fancy new sewing machines that sew at very slow pace.
Yes the dress is beautiful, just started fake heiress...love it!! Not sure if it is one you’ll like but I really enjoyed telephone stories the trials of Michael Jackson’s (straight facts about the allegations and court cases etc) it is on luminary another podcast platform as always really enjoyed the video you ladies are awesome and I always look forward to your content
Live your videos but I actually often wish they were longer 😂 yabber all you like! I found a podcast that you might cbe interested in, it's called "Wardrobe Crisis" by Vogue Australia's Sustainability Editor Clare Press. Some great interviews and I think sewists are often somewhat into the idea of sustainability
sphhyn I think she spoke about a fashion label www.cosstores.com/en_eur/index.html?gclid=CjwKCAiA66_xBRBhEiwAhrMuLUBfKp-gFXXoT6iBg6-1VnIM1ZKkWb1itKm3CM60qxdZndxDQED59xoCOuQQAvD_BwE
It's not an advert - I got asked where they were from in several videos so was just answering questions. I got sent a discount code so thought it would be nice to share
I think this is the 5th episode of your podcast that I have watched today. I am so glad I discovered you. Love the recommendations..😘
I started listened to Fake Heiress yesterday and I ended up listening to all of the episodes! It was brilliant. I'm going to get the book now! Thanks for the recommendation. I do love things that are based on a true story.
Best wishes at your upcoming show!
More💰 for more 💐. 😉
Love that orangey, rusty colored leopard fabric! Looks great on you.

Love the Cissy Dress. Adding that to my “I need this pattern” list!
Loved your dress and your hair.brilliant chat as always.
Very interesting article about Singer. Thank you.
I think Fibre Mood is Belgian. I have that issue too :)

'slipping into my lunch' made me laugh a lot - thank great idea!
Very informative! Thank you very much!!
The singer article is essential, just fascinating
Hi Kate, beautiful dress 💖...love that colour on you 👌. Great info as usual 👍💖😁😘
Thanks Sally - I wasn't sure it it was too similar to my hair colour but pretty pleased with how it turned out!

Love the dress Kate, thanks for the discount codes see you at the show
See you there Julia!
Sew Me Sunshine & The Fold Line together on the same stall. Would so love to see that!
I know double trouble!!

That dress is fantastic!!
Thanks Robin!
I enjoy watching your vlogs. Did you already talk about 'La Maison Victor'? It is belgian too and I prefer it to Fibre Mood.
Yes I've mentioned them before - we don't stock them yet but will hopefully soon!
Your dress is beautiful and made with my fabric of dreams! Will you be at the knitting and stitching show in October?
Hi Sammy - not sure yet. The show is much bigger than the spring one as we were worried we'd get a bit lost. It's deffo on our radar though, and will let you know if we do!
The Fold Line I hope so, I’m actually coming along to that one and would really love to meet you both there
Well done on making something 😀your dress brill. I'm going over to listen to the fake heiress now thanks
Enjoy and thank you!

Great Foldline! Did you get round to making your Ottoline jacket?
Gulp!! Nope... it's on the list... but who knows when I get there!
Yes the dress is beautiful, just started fake heiress...love it!! Not sure if it is one you’ll like but I really enjoyed telephone stories the trials of Michael Jackson’s (straight facts about the allegations and court cases etc) it is on luminary another podcast platform as always really enjoyed the video you ladies are awesome and I always look forward to your content
Thanks Jillian - ohh that sounds really interesting thank you I'l go check it out as sounds right up my street!

Sorry, what is Cos? Re the Cossey dress....
The Cissy dress has a bit of a Cos feel to it's shape!
I do not understand the reference, too😅 What is ‚Cos‘ ? Anyone?
sphhyn I think she spoke about a fashion label www.cosstores.com/en_eur/index.html?gclid=CjwKCAiA66_xBRBhEiwAhrMuLUBfKp-gFXXoT6iBg6-1VnIM1ZKkWb1itKm3CM60qxdZndxDQED59xoCOuQQAvD_BwE
@@sphhyn the ready to wear chain of clothes stores COS perhaps? Just a guess 🐈
Simone Neumann-Salva thanks ! Did not know that
Sneaky advertisement for the flowers
It's not an advert - I got asked where they were from in several videos so was just answering questions. I got sent a discount code so thought it would be nice to share
