Thank you for taking us along with you. Love your outfits and I too love thrifting. My husband and I visited York a couple of years ago. In fact we were having dinner when the waitress told us the Queen had died. So sad. We splurged and were staying at The Grand Hotel, so lovely and right by the train station which we took to go to London. We only had 3 days in York, wish we had more. We loved the Pub called The Fat Badger. Thanks again
Loved the vlog. It was a joy to see you three together having fun. I am not a charity shop devotee, but I admire those who shop there and upcycle. I am more of a 'drop stuff off' person, haha. I look forward to your new strategy.
Love all the outfits girls, I just ordered the Fraya, its so nice in leopard print! love your friendship, I moved down south 3 years ago and miss my girls x
I always love to see how connected you have become through a love of sewing and proximity. I would love to have that and you certainly feed the connection you all have. I can’t wait to see your first upcycles
The scarf would make lovely handkerchief top ❤ pink & white shirt I wold take collar off and shorten sleeves but leave a turn up ❤not sure what I would do with the orange dress ❤ lovely video ❤
You know with the red dress I think a co-ord set top and shorts maybe, the scarf a halterneck scarf print top or a vest ir cami style top and the shirt add darts to shape in at the waist and pull off cuffs and elasticize the sleeve cuffs maybe?
Great to see you having so much fun together, always enjoyable. Very different thrift shopping to your normal fabric haul & look forward to seeing all your recycling.❤
What a great day. I've promised myself a day in York this year. Haven't been for 34 years. I recently upcycled a thrifted linen mens shirt I bought for £3.80. I made it into a Kate Top by Tessuti fabrics. Such a nice pattern .I kept the button packet down the front but stitched it together.
Rachel your outfit is adorable and the shirt color suits you well. I can see your upcycle as a purse to go with your outfit. Ruan and Tamlyn you both look stunning and I can see Tamlyn upcycle as a long or short skirt and Ruan yours as a cute top. Love watching you three.
Great video, and you all look amazing. Rachel, that colour looks fantastic. I love it 😊 can't wait to see your upcycles. I found a vintage wooden concertina sewing box in oxfam today for £10, bargain 😊
A day out with friends is the best. I love checking out anything sewing related in thrift stores, and i have found some amazing things. Upcycling is fun. I'm not sure what I would do with the orange dress, but the fabric is so pretty, maybe cut it off for a cute summery top. The beautiful scarf could be incorporated into a top or dress, i see the back of a top with most of the scarf. For the pink shirt, either just altered to fit, or combined with one or two other fabrics for a funky top. I love finding men's shirts, the quality of the fabric is usually excellent. When i was a teenager in the 70's i would fold scarves into halter tops. One of my favourite things to look for in a thrift store are sewing patterns I used to make my clothes. My plan is to make some kind of collage for my sewing room, (keeping both envelopes and patterns intact). I love these vlogs of day out with the NSS.
What a lovely day you all had. Rachel the blue top really suited you so well and brought out your eyes. I’m looking forward to seeing your thrifted garments. I think it’s my least favourite thing to do. The second challenge on the sewing bee always fills me with dread 😂
A lovely video of what looks like a Grand Day Out 😂 Your charity shop hauls look amazing. If you haven't already seen her Thoughtful Creativity on TH-cam has done quite a few up cycling videos and quite a few are using men's shirts...
Thank you for sharing your lovely day. It really cheered me up. You all look great and you got some fab things in the thrift shops. Looking forward to seeing your upcycles. ❤
I absolutely loved this video. Sharing in your happiness, friendship and shenanigans (☺😆) was a great way to spend my Saturday morning (I'm in the US). Your giggle fest after a "drink" made me laugh. 🍹🍾🥂. How lucky you are to have trains that bring you all together for a splendid day. Rachel, I'd make a little top out of the scarf. Spaghetti straps, slight cowl neck, triangle shape, with point coming to the top of your pants/shorts/skirt. If there's not enough fabric for the back, you can rouch (not sure how to spell that) a coordinating color for the back. The only thing I've ever used an old men's shirt for is bag lining, lol. Ruan, I would size yours down and maybe get rid of the collar, but keep the stand. Otherwise, I think it would drown you in it. Or make an apron, pillow cover/s. Have fun!

What a fun day out! Ruan I think removing the collar to leave the stand on that pink shirt would work a treat! Thanks for bringing us along ☺️
Great idea!!
Rachel your outfit is adorable and the shirt color suits you well. I can see your upcycle as a purse to go with your outfit. Ruan and Tamlyn you both look stunning and I can see Tamlyn upcycle as a long or short skirt and Ruan yours as a cute top. Love watching you three.
