Great little chat……enjoy the rest of your holiday. 🌹❤️
Thank you 😊
When someone says ‘can you make me one?’ I’m always really honest and say ‘no sorry, I don’t get much time to sew- I’m selfish and only make for myself 😂’
Have a nice holiday 🎉
Brilliant 🤩
Fab vlog Alison, especially for new sewers. I really enjoyed your comments, thank you xxx
Thank you 😊
Totally agree with you. TH-cam have fantastic, beautiful sewing communities. I’m new to sewing and as an introvert, learning and listening to how everyone is going and seeing what they’re sewing is good therapy for me. Sending best wishes from Down Under 🥰💐🇦🇺
So glad you’re loving TH-cam and it’s helping 💕
Stay stitching - absolutely!!!! I used to skip this but nevere ever do now. Have a great holiday
I know so worth it
So many great tips! I would add to wash and dry your fabric, how you would launder the garment after it's made. I would also suggest if you are just starting to sew, don't buy expensive fabric. And even if you are an experienced sewist, it's fun to learn something new, or even a different way to do something. Getting or more important, giving a compliment can make a difference in a person's day. While I'm not great at talking to people i don't know, i will often compliment someone, maybe its a colour or a style they are wearing. This is so out of my comfort zone, but if someone is wearing something I would like to make for my self I will ask permission to take a picture. Amazingly no one has ever said no. As I'm getting older I'm finding it very important to not sit for hours sewing. Take a few minutes to stand up, stretch, move around, get a drink. Even standing at your ironing board is good for you.
Absolutely how did I miss that one out
Such wise words, Alison. Thank you. My tip would be the grain line on pattern pieces is really important especially if you're using denim to make jeans. Cut out on a single layer and measure from the selvedge to align your grain line. That way you'll avoid the dreaded twisted leg! Even RTW jeans sometimes have the twisted leg!
Great tip! Thank you
Many thanks Alison, such a lovely presentation, it clearly came from the heart. Bon Vacances !!!!
I lived in France for several years and bought lots of bargain fabrics from the village Brocantes. Hope you get to visit some .😍
Ooo how lovely it’s a fab place to visit it must have been fabulous to have lived here
A lovely chat Alison. Great tips❤. Enjoy France🎉
Thanks so much! 😊
What a great post ..lots of info..tips ..enjoy that holiday. Thankyou.
Thank you 😊
All very good tips! I learned sometimes a quick muslin, maybe just of the bodice using an old sheet, for example, can save a lot of heartache! I love the fabric you are wearing, and hope you have a lovely holiday!
Great tip! A toile is always a great idea
Bless you filming whilst away, enjoy your holiday and thanks for tips
Thank you! Will do!
Great chat..enjoy your holiday!❤
Thank you, we are 😊
Great vlog Alison 😄 I have learned so much from using TH-cam and always search for sew alongs if I’m making something more involved. Like you I’m a visual learner and I usually come across something I don’t understand in the written instructions.
I had a lady tap me on the shoulder as she was getting off the bus last week, to tell me she loved my blouse. I was absolutely buzzing! 😂 Enjoy the rest of your holiday 💞💞
Wonderful! The best feeling 😊
Great vlog and tips, thank you Alison😊The top (or dress) you’re wearing is lovely on you. Enjoy your holidays😊

Thanks Alison great tips! Your words of wisdom struck a chord with me as only today as I got asked to make curtains for someone. I’ve never done anything like curtains so I politely declined but have felt awful since for saying no. Thank you for making me feel better. ❤
You are so welcome! Don’t feel bad about it make something lovely for you instead 😊

Great tips ..Thankyou .. could you talk about using finished garment measurements and grading some time. I have very different body shape then you and need to adjust patterns but not sure how. Love your chatty style. Enjoy that holiday.
Will do! Will weave it in soon ish x
I really wish I realised that not all patterns will fit every body straight out of the packet
Also, a lot of online fabric stores will sell you samples
Great video and tips!
Tweeks and adaptions are great it’s so good we can do that
Minerva is good too and will write if you have questions.
That’s good
