Great vlog as always Ruan ❤

Lovely video. I love those little butterfly zipper pulls! And love all the fabric you got. Have a great time with hubby.

Great video, the bag kit looks beautiful. After your last video with the girls I went & had a look at website for Jenny Stitches & ended up buying some fabric. Thank you Ruan.❤

An idea for the Drew, caramel or camel would go beautifully with that lovely animal print, and go for cream rather than the expected black. Be bold and different. Unless, like me, you cannot eat or drink without spillage, then go for the black lol

Bias cut slip dress out of the animal print cotton sateen fabric. You can just wear a top over it.

I love your shelcing unit, what are theycalled and maybe what company did you purchase them from? Your craft room is lovely and your ideas are stellar.

Black and gold bag would be stunning.❤❤

Super catch up Ruan. Of course you’re brave enough to wear animal print jeans. You’re fierce and marvellous and will look stunning as ever. 😊 x

I'm new to garment making and love your vlog........😊

the black faux leather texture looks like the scales on a dragonfly just in black, can see why they included that in the theme 🙂

Ive always had a pouchy tummy😢

Yes! Since menopause I have slowly grown thicker in my midsection and just in the last 2 years it's gotten crazy. I now look like my grandmother who looked pregnant rather than just fat. I have put on a little weight all over but mostly in the belly. The struggle to find appropriate patterns for my shape is near impossible. I find myself just trying to alter patterns and hope it doesn't look horrible or too much like maternity.

My oldest grandson is an artist. I'm thinking about making him one of the roll up bag for his birthday next year for his charcoal pencils and paint brushes. Thank you for the ideas. I know if three projects I'm going to make.

Love the chat, it’s just so natural I feel like I am in the actual room with you. Not sure if you follow Gina Seams, she made the Know Me pattern ME2016 in a leopard print. It is absolutely gorgeous. I think you will love it. Happy sewing, Happy life.

Love watching your blog thank you

Such nice makes for the season. I’m inspired to make a couple coats now.

We just simply love you Ruan 🙏💖... I'm loving everything you've made but particularly your denim jacket 👌... I need that in my wardrobe 👍💖😘

Keep on doing just what you do please. Great videos. Thank you.

I am so here for the chat 😂 plus the added bonus of some sewing content. Keep up the great work. I’m excited for your vlogmas❤

I don’t think you chat too much. I enjoy your vlogs.

Another 74 year old (Grandma) here who loves your vlogs. I love my sewing and knitting and after two carpal tunnel surgeries this year, it is great to be making things again. I'm sitting knitting the rib on a new jumper, thoroughly enjoying your news and your humorous take on life. Don't ever change!

Ryan this is your channel your rules! Love watching you even when you ramble on.

I'm here for the sewing and the chat!

Interesting ideas and different from most I’ve seen. I especially love the commenter who suggested making the travel pouches for food banks. I volunteer with an organisation that does a lot of outreach in the underhoused community and wonder if these might be worthwhile making up!

I wish I had seen this at the beginning of the month oh well. OH I WANTED TO SAY THAT I AM LOVING YOUR HAIR COLOR

Loved your video another idea that people here are doing is bowl cosies for a hot bowl of soup or cold ice cream . If you need a pattern I will draw you one. Just ask. Hugs Nola from Alberta Canada

You made the Pietra Pants less scary Ruan. We feel your friendship and love in the chat and appreciate you. xx Karen

I love your chats Ruan. I enjoy your makes and chats videos. I appreciate you spending your time with us. I also love animal prints too.

I love your videos and love the chatting.

I can’t decide which of the two jackets is my favorite Ruan, as they are both amazing! I love the style and fabrics you have chosen, and makes me want to have a go! Love the Page hoodie too, and I still need to make the Pietra pants myself 😃 Very excited that you are doing Vlogmas again ❤

If I had a youtube channel I would love to chat as much as you do!

i love you chatty! you always make me smile love your hints and knowledge always be you
