I get bed linens from my Buy Nothing Group if no one else wants them for the bed and use them for my toiles. Also when toiling trousers there is usually no need to cut a whole leg length because the fitting issues are most often in the body rather than the leg. Obviously if there is a style interest in the leg, then cut a leg, but maybe only one.

I haven’t sewn in so long but yes the waste can add up fast! The great thing about more natural items too is they can at least be composted our worms would eat lots!

Speaking from someone who recently packed 5 WIPs hehe I say pack it all so you know you have it but then it may also end up that you don’t do a whole heap? You will also find more yarn along the way too? I’d pack the Florence sweater for sure, 3 weeks to complete a sweater is a great time and the dopamine of that being done and then the memories of knowing it was holiday time. Also a small project for the ease of taking it about. Then one sewing too - I’d leave the beads for home post trip (ps it’s actually been beautiful and warm here up until today so pack a variety of things for clothing too)

It's a personality thing, but I would feel so stressed taking many projects with me. It'd feel like a long to do list. I would take only a few that I knew I could get through.

Minimum of 3 knitting projects, at least one small one like the colourwork hat. Definitely the EPP - I baste hexes a LOT in the car and I stitch baste rather than glue. The linen scraps might be a bit more complex because you will want to iron the fabric. Could you take a craft iron and ironing pad as well? The beads might be a bit fiddly for on the road. Definitely your journal and the craft books because as you read the books you are going to be inspired and might want to do some project planning. So excited for all of your adventures!
@Le_Yvette Ай бұрын
That’s a good point. I do have a craft iron and mini board but that would get fiddly.
@oureclecticlife Ай бұрын
I agree with Sammi, take everything apart from the scraps. There is plenty of cutting out to do with the EPP project.

Yay!!! English paper piecing 😍 I started my first one back in May. I took it away with me for my 50th birthday week in June. It’s sooooo addictive. Don’t glue them on, hand tack them instead.
@Le_Yvette Ай бұрын
Why is glue not a good idea? Also milestone birthday, that’s exciting!
@oureclecticlife Ай бұрын
@@Le_Yvette because, when it comes time to removing the paper, the glue can stick a bit too much.
@sammiLJ Ай бұрын
The only think I wouldn’t take (based on what you said) is the scraps. Unless you have a space up and away you can keep them from little hands that may want to throw them everywhere 😏
@Le_Yvette Ай бұрын
That’s true and is a concern for me too. But currently they tend to go in that basket to throw all the fabric out anyway 😂

I’m now 50 and always hated wearing dresses because of my weird apple shape. I always thought I looked like I was wearing a tent 😂 But, somehow I just started wearing dresses in my 40’s and found ones that I felt didn’t look too bad. It’s so hard to figure out what works for all of our different shapes. PS I’ve only started watching this video but had to comment on that part so I didn’t forget 😂
