I hate tracing 😖 gathering 😡 changing overlocker threads 🤢 deciding for the next pattern 😩 deciding for a size 🙄 button holes 😵💫 ripping seams 🤬. The only part I truly enjoy is buying fabric so I am focussimg on that 🤪🤪🤪
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Are we twins?
.. this comment is the best comment EVER ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆

Omg twins! 😂😂😂
Dear Ruan - wonderful chat as usual. I'm sitting in bed on Saturday morning watching you, eating breakfast, and hanging out washing (before the biggest tornado of this century hits Auckland) and I am smiling. You are so inspirational, and I really cannot work out how there are enough hours in the day for you. Back to our weather, remembering this is our summer, I have sewed a 1920s dress and hat for an Art Deco Festival in Napier next weekend, and I now probably cannot go. Was going in my campervan, and was really looking forward to it, but may be too unsafe for me to travel. Anyway, I can always tune into you and the Sewl Sisters anytime and smile and enjoy the chats (and with a bit of sewing thrown in) . Love from Heather (Mum ha ha) in New Zealand
Oh Heather I hope you’ve all been ok? Did it hit you hard or did you manage to escape it? 🙏🏼
@@theyorkshiresewgirl We’re ok where we live, but other parts of the country complete devastation including Napier, where I was meant to be now. Thousands have lost their homes, communications and roads. Loved the walk through ikea with you. Heather 🧵👗
Lovely plans. Looking forward to seeing the honey blouse and the Marnie ❤
Coming soon! 😊
Only a minute in but I gotta say your videos are always so fun to watch, refreshing, funny, inspiring.. you’re great!!
Wow, thank you! 🥰🥰
Hellooooooo lovely one. Thank you for the mention of my Marnie 😘
Yours will be stunning in that cotton lawn, can’t wait to see your Southbank too, that fabric is perfect on you.
Happy sewing lovely 🥰 🧵🪡
Thanks honey 😘
Lovely fabric Ruan. 💙🍓🧶🌈
Thank you! 😊
Hi been watching your videos since you started . You Rachel tamlin.Have inspired me to do my channel. Just done secound video . The cornish sewing girl. Dlighted with all my views. Thank you girls for all your inspiration.
Oh that’s so good to hear. When I get conscription I’ll try to bob over 👍🏼
Fun vlog again Ruan 😂Lovely plans and fabrics!
Thanks so much! 😊
Hello friend! Well, you have a lot going on. My one AND only plan is making my sister a smock from out mother’s old smock. I actually took the smock apart and created a pattern from it. My sister and I went shopping this weekend and she chose some nice fabric. I’ll take some fabr from my mom’s smock and cut out a heart so she’ll have a piece of our mom with her always. I think it’ll be a nice memory for my sister 🥰. It’ll be a go start to a new and awesome year! Can’t wait to see your makes. Thank you for sharing! Your friend Diane ❤
Oh Diane that’s such a lovely thing to do ❤️
@@theyorkshiresewgirl Thank you 😊
Just watched your video.. You make my day.. Have fun making your next few projects
Thank you, I will 😊
Very entertaining as always Ruan 😃 Love all your plans with those fabulous fabrics! I can never resist a print and don’t seem to enjoy sewing with plain fabrics as much for some reason 😂 I’m sure your Honey blouse will be stunning. I can’t seem to decide what to make this month! I’m thinking a Norma blouse which not made before. Happy Sewing😊
Oooh a Norma blouse 😍. Another pattern that I have but am yet to make up 🤣
@@theyorkshiresewgirl 😂❤️
Love that black and white fabric!
As for interfacing, I hate it too but saw a tip on Pattern Scout that is a game changer (maybe I'm late to the party but I hadn't thought of it) She interfaces a piece of fabric large enough to cut out all of the necessary pieces. No fiddling with small pieces.
Yes it’s such a good idea isn’t it. Would have definitely done that if I’d had enough interfacing 🙈
I don’t seem to get much made cause I’m always watching you guys. Hopeless haha
This made me giggle 🤭
I hate gathering, so I always use the clear elastic method. I find it also helps to stabilise the tiers as sometimes if the fabric is a little weighty it can make the length drop and the dress stretch
That’s a really good point. There’s a lot of fabric for the tier so it might drag 🤔
Love that second fabric on you. It lights up your face. Sort of wish I lived in the same country so I could join you all such laughs❤
Thank you so much!
Hi Ruan loved your video loved all your plans especially the black one with the flowers on thank you for sharing have a lovely time away Dawn 🎉
Thank you Dawn 😊
Awesome Ruan, I just received the Nomi dress and magazine myself and love the short version, now I have to find me some fabric the same as the short one. I thought of you as soon as I seen the short nomi....lol Cant wait to see your makes. I have a plain pink to make the south bank. Just moved though so cant find much of anything yet. as I just also had Knee surgery October 31, so a bit slow yet.
Oh hope you recover quickly so you can get sewing again 🤞🏼
I used to belong to a small group and we called it Stitch & Bitch because we did more chatting than stitching!
🤣
Have you tried gathering over dental floss? I use a wide zig zag that isn't spaced too far apart and zig zag over the dental floss. Once you finish tie one end to a safety pin so it doesn't pull through then slide the fabric down the floss until you get your required 'scrunch'. When you pin or clip you can disburse the gathers evenly. Much faster and you don't have to worry about your thread breaking!
No I haven’t Cecile but I’ve heard about that! Think I need to try a few different methods and see which one I prefer 👍🏼
Love the plans, Ruan. The honey top will be stunning, and that fabric for the Marnie is too lovely for words. Have fun!
Thank you lovely ☺️
I absolutely love your vlogs. Yes you're "totally bonkers " but that's what I love! Like you I always use patterned fabrics.
🤣🤪
So glad to see you!❤. As a mom of 2 grown boys, I can say it’s very hard work being the Queen of your home, raising those boys! I remember being exhausted most of the time. Your plans sound wonderful. The Fabric Godmother fabric took my breath away when you whipped it out to show us! Take care !
Thank you! I’m so lucky to have two gorgeous boys ❤️
Great plans. Look forward to seeing them. Thank you 😊
Thanks for watching! X
The fabric you purchased for your Marni top is soooo awesome! And cotton lawn is my favorite fabric to sew with. Can’t wait to see yours finished. Happy Sewing and hugs from
Oregon…
Thanks lovely. Can’t wait to make it up 👏🏻
Hi Ruan loved the video that black and white fabric is fabulous. Looking forward to northan sewl sisters on 10th,(not sure of spelling 😅sorry) x
Glad you’ll be joining us 😊
Wow, I love you plans. You have so much energy. I love the lilac animal print. Can’t wait to see them all finished. Cheers from 🇦🇺🇦🇺
Thanks so much! 😊
Im a bit voluminous like the Marnie sleeve 🤣🤣🤣. Thanks for another great video Ruan, we really appreciate the time you spend with us xx
Omg this made me chuckle 🤭 I’m voluminous too 🤣
Another great video Ruan. I love watching and listening to you because you are so funny and you challenge me to use colour and pattern on my makes. Lots of the TH-cam sewing community do too. I have been so plain when it comes to clothes but garment making this year is going to zing (for me that might mean a few dots lol)😁
Yes!!! Get zinging right away 🥳
I made the long dress from the magazine too😊 I used black and white print jersey and I love it. Thought it would be perfect for travelling this summer. You’ll love it.
Ooh that’s good to know 👍🏼
Great plans ❤. Liz from the Baker That Sews once suggested increasing the stitch tension on a long basting stitch to gather on the machine and it really works!! Saves loads of time….Ive not tried it on a jersey though 🤔
That is so strange! I have just read that on my instructions for the Honey blouse! I must try it!
Spooky 👻🤣!
Loving your plans and that Marnie and Honey blouse are gonna look LUSH 🥰🥰🥰
Aww thanks lovely 😘
That honey blouse is going to be fabulous. Love that fabric. Can’t wait to see it!!
Thanks hon. Definitely one of my fave fabrics ever ❤️
Love the sound of your plans and your fabrics too. I’ve got the pink zebra print from Andrea too, I’m thinking of the hug hoodie (minus the hood!). Can’t wait to see the honey blouse 😍
That would be gorgeous!
Gorgeous plans and fabrics Ruan 👌💞😁... can't wait to see them ✊😘
Thanks so much! 😊
Lovely plans Ruan. I looove you animal print fabric. :D
I thought you might Agata 🤪
Can't wait to see your next Marnie. That fabric is stunning!
Thank you! Hope I manage to sew it up soon 🤞🏼
I’m exactly the same! 😂😂😂
😊
Love your plans and that fabric for the Marnie is lush 😍. Don't know how you fit it all in, I struggle to make one thing a month let alone 3 or 4! Is your middle name wonderwoman 🤣
Ha! Well that’s why I haven’t put a time limit on it. I know what I’m like 🤪🙈
Hi Ruan, I love the lilac on U the best, just gorgeous!🇨🇦
Thanks so much! 🥰
Happy to catch up. Loving your fabric choices. All fabulous. Brought the Honey Top to my attention. I passed it up at first but heading to buy it now.
Ooh lovely 😊
That last fabric is 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
😍
Gorgeous plans, love the colours! I'm currently
wearing my Southbank sweater in boring grey, yours will be fabulous in the plum pink combo😍
🤣🤣. I forgot to go back and comment on your vlog. That leopard coat is just bloomin amazing!!! Seriously. I want it 🤣🤣🤣
It’s dangerous watching these videos. Guess which 2 fabrics I just bought in the sale at Fabric Godmother 😅. I was swooning over Lauren’s Fibre Mood Blouse too but I’ve been eying up The Assembly Line Tie Bow Blouse for a while and think this will be the perfect combo 😀. The cotton lawn is destined for the new free skirt pattern from Sew Over it.
He he! Rachel from Stitched Up has just made the sequence blouse in it and it’s gorgeous!
Can’t wait for your 🍯 💜 🐆☺️
Woop woop!
Love those fabrics 😍
Me too!! 😊
Ha ha Bet Lynch I have a plantain tee made in it and it’s lush x
He he. Yay!!!
Have a great time with the girls don’t forget to do some sewing x😂
Who me?!? 🤣
I love your plans! Fabulous fabrics!
Thank you so much!
Love all your plans. I gotta make a Marnie.x
You do! 😊
You now keep popping in on my Facebook and inst feed in adverts for the lights
Hi Ruan, I've just gone and bought fabric from fabricgodmother's sale, so if my husband ask's why I'll tell him its your fault LOL x
Ha ha. Send him my way. I’ll back you up 💪🏼
😂
Great plans xx
Thank you 😊
Great plans Ruan ❤
Thank you 😊
Love your fabrics in fact I have the animal print one too 😂
He he! Can’t beat a bit of animal print!
I've just found your channel and you are hilarious!!! It just makes watching so enjoyable. I guess even if you were talking about chopped liver it would still be funny. LOL
🤣🤣🤣. That really made me laugh! Thank you ☺️
Thanks for your videos. It might be an idea to interface a slightly bigger piece of fabric than you need, then cut out afterwards. This way, the fabric is more stable and easier to cut out.
Yes I did think that but then realised I didn’t have enough 🤦🏻♀️
@@theyorkshiresewgirl also, I meant to say, if it's daunting to go back so far, why not just start the 'makes' vlogs from this year? Most people will appreciate that the time it would take to catch up is a lot, so you could just start afresh from now :)
@@suemacfarlane7372 thank you. Yes I may do that x
I love your plans. I have bought the Adria jacket but don't think I have seen yours yet. I haven't started it... 😕Currently making (very slowly) the Josephine dress from Fibremood... And also the Tudor blouse from Stitch Witch patterns...
Sounds fab. I haven’t shown my jacket yet. A review will be coming up soon over on the Northern Sewl Sisters channel 👍🏼
Guess what I’m cutting out right now!! 😂xx
🤣🤣 I did get it right that you were joining in too? Or did I make that up? 🤪
@@theyorkshiresewgirl I am lovely x
🇨🇦😃
😊
Ruan it is a lady’s prerogative to change her mind. As many times as she likes!
Absolutely 🤣
I just trace one side of the paper.
Good idea! Thank you 😊
xXX👍👍👍
