Hi! I just thought i'd share my sewing journey with you! I'm 13 and my nan's final present to me before she passed was a sewing machine. Ever since then i have loved to sew and create new things. I have even chosen textiles as my high school elective! this video was really useful and i am incredibly grateful that you could help me continue my nan's sewing legacy! Thanks so much for the great video!

So lovely to see Pepsi with the cat nip bag. Lovely memory

[@DaintyDiaries]

Aww, yea, when I was editing I had to leave her in, such fun memories seeing her in the old videos x

[@meherd1853]

I just made a drawstring bag, and it turned out so good!! I also ended up lining it since my fabric was really thin, and I use it to keep my makeup and stuff as of now!! Thanks for the tutorial 😊😊😊

[@lindanave6390]

I love all the bags and pouches!! The scrunches, face cloths, and the dish rags! The cat collar is adorable!! Let’s not forget those precious aprons!! I might try to make some of those for my preschool class! I’d need 10 of them! You are so creative and do an amazing job on EVERYTHING you create!! I ❤️ your channel!!

[@-angie.]

Those heart coasters would make adorable Christmas tree ornaments by adding just a touch more filling! So Shabby Chic!

[@traceychivers1988]

Thank you

[@ShannonAlexis96]

This is exactly what I needed. I recently inherited a sewing machine and I just got it back from the repair shop. Tomorrow I plan to start my first project as a beginner sewer! Thank you.

[@DaintyDiaries]

Yay! Best of luck with your sewing machine ❤️❤️❤️

[@theguest4516]

Learn how to sew in straight lines first. Just use some scrape fabric and practice until you can see straight!!! People forget that about learning. It's a skill you need to learn. Nobody is a "natural"!!! Remember that!!! Good luck!!!

[@nellgrill3845]

Also,. See if any sewing classes r in your area...? Very helpful 👍🙂

[@lisalife7994]

Hi Catherine. Wanted to extend my condolences for Pepsi’s passing. He was so full of personality. I hope Blondie is adjusting. I too have a dual ownership kitty. He adopted us and keeps a few other families as well. He goes by at least four names. We are crazy about him! Have a good week. Love your channel. Lisa from Colorado

[@DaintyDiaries]

Aw thanks for sharing that Lisa, yes we are both adjusting to it just being the two of us x

I love scrunchies , they are so much more comfortable than the thin elastic band ones, i will watch this and than make one, thank you for sharing this vid!

[@lorrainewhitlock5377]

It was so lovely to see Pepsi in this video. That is a wonderful memory. As far as your projects they are wonderful to see and very inspiring

[@simmoneb4524]

Hello Catherine, I'm so sorry that Pepsi is gone. Our furry friends are such a huge part of our lives and we miss their personalities as much as their comforting presence when they go. Thank you for this compilation of sewing projects. I've put aprons and scrunchies on my to do list. As I'm needing to spend extended time in bed at the moment, I've been binge watching your channel, in particular your travel videos. Your camera work is very professional. I kept forgetting I was watching a You Tube clip and thought I was watching a travel program on TV. Great work! I look forward to watching them again soon. Thanks for all the time and effort you out into your channel. You are an inspiration and such a role model for young women everywhere. Warm regards, Simmone in Victoria, Australia

[@alyssacarvalho5795]

Evening Catherine. It's lovely to see Pepsi in your videos again. You are so lucky to have such great footage to remember her by! You are like therapy for me. Your videos always lift my spirits. 💗🐈🌺

[@nikkiejones4606]

Hi Catherine xx 😘 it was lovely to see blondie and you making her a sweet color with the pretty bow. You gave her a loving beautiful life. I loved watching you craft , you have such a beautiful soul Catherine! God bless you abundantly in all things and much love from me too! 🙏♥️🥰😘

Hi Catherine, so sorry about the loss of your kitty. It's so hard. We've been through it many times and it's never any easier :( I heard that scrunchies are making a big comeback. Love those drawstring bags. I just picked a lot of lavender and they would make lovely sachets!! xo

[@frankkimchapman8252]

So sad did the cat really die? I thought the neck collar was a little too tight.

[@joannecooper4592]

You are so right about using an iron to open seams and making them flat. Next to the actual sewing machine, your iron is your most important tool. Very cute projects!

[@DaintyDiaries]

Yes! So true x

[@lynngliottone2812]

I just LOVE the pouches...so pretty!!

Glad you like them! x

[@DaintyDiaries]

Thank you Karen ❤️❤️🥰 your always so kind x

[@kuttfam0191]

Your tutorials are very clear and easy to understand! I have made boxy pouches before, but always mess up when sewing the second side of the zipper. When I saw how you did it a light came on in my head! I even said out loud, “So that’s how it’s done!”. No one heard me except the dog, but he was very glad I finally figured it out. Love Ireland and I hope someday to visit. It’s definitely on my bucket list,

[@DaintyDiaries]

Awwww yes love this! Now you can master them zippers, I used to be afraid to sew them x

[@nataliearena2241]

I use the plastic netting in making my sponges. I put it on the outside. Makes a scrubby. Our veggies in the US often come packaged in the plastic netting. Cute ideas.

[@bobbigeehan7221]

I have to tell you, you are such a lovely young lady and a pleasure and an inspiration to watch! Youre very well spoken and you give clear and concise instructions. I’m a fairly newer sewer (at 51) so you are most definitely an inspiration to me. Thank you for your compilation of videos. Did you ever get any of the magic fabric clips? If not, I have a ridiculous amount of them and would absolutely love to send you a couple handfuls of them! If that’s something you’re interested in, send your address in a private message and I’ll get them out straight away. By the way, I’m a flight attendant of 25 years and Ireland was my very first international trip!! Which was awesome because I’m Irish ☘️!!! (My maiden name is O’Farrell) just thought I’d share that with you. Have a great day and keep putting out videos!

[@DaintyDiaries]

Aww thank you for sharing that, that’s amazing you were a flight attendant, it’s been so long since I last flew. Your so kind x

Beautiful pics of things to make! I love the collar on Blondie❤️ Dear Pepsi looks so healthy and so well cared for. We had a dog that died a few years ago and our other dog would not go near the food or toys or even the kitchen. We thought Marley’s spirit was keeping him away.

Aww good to see Pepsi in there and Blondie such beautiful cats. I like the cat collar and I agree the snap off kind are great. My cat lost her collar one time and we couldn't find it for the longest time. My husband finally did find it on top of the hot water tank by an opening on top of the tank. 😮 she isn't allowed in the basement anymore for her safety.
