Great video as always, after a busy few weeks moving hope to get on with some sewing soon.😊

[@StitchyBee]

thanks Helena, aww, good luck with the settling into your new home, its tough but worth it in the end.x

[@published1789]

There are so many things to appreciate about your straightforward videos. I was just thinking how nice it was that you squeezed in the little detail about whether the fabric you were showcasing (which looks lovely) would match a previous one you've carried. Little touches that keep us all coming back to you indies!

[@StitchyBee]

published1789 thank you so much for your kind words, I really appreciate them 💖

[@loriannpayne4483]

That’s fun to see new Indie Designer’s. Sewing Cake has a free pattern that I might download to try them first. Thank you kindly for the “Stitchybee” discount. Very thoughtful of you!

[@StitchyBee]

Loriann Payne thank you Loriann 💖

[@sarahosmari7870]

Hello Cheryl you have done it again sharing your beautiful fabrics and explaining the indie patterns out there thank you for sharing love your odgen cami top 😊😊

[@StitchyBee]

sarah osmari thank you so much Sarah 😊💖

[@faydiva8863]

Thank you. I haven't come across these before and they are all good choices. I think a dark mustard jersey would combine really nicely with the dark blue floral for the woven top.

[@StitchyBee]

Faydiva sounds lovely 😊

[@maureencullen1008]

Really interesting.I saw the caplet pattern last year and loved it but never got around to it.This year maybe the year and with a detachable hood .loved the pink herringbone.Cant wait to see your makes,especially the dress.

[@myralorraine]

[@StitchyBee]

Julia Droy thanks Julia 🌷

[@elainemakin6345]

I discovered your channel a few days ago whilst recovering in hospital from an operation. Oh my goodness! You’ve inspired me to sew for myself more. Ive ordered a few bits of fabric from you along with the pattern for the kingfisher top. Thank you so much for keeping me entertained 😊

[@StitchyBee]

Elaine Makin ahh, thank you so much Elaine, I wish you a speedy recovery 😘🌷

[@shirleyannduncan4419]

Love the wrap!

[@StitchyBee]

Shirley Ann Duncan it’s fab isn’t it? 🌷

[@shirleyannduncan4419]

Stitchy Bee I've ordered the blue wool from your shop for this!! So looking forward to making it

[@StitchyBee]

Thank you Shirley, the blue will be lovely as a wrap 🌷

[@windydotcom]

Addendum to previous comment - pattern for wrap and materials suggested ordered. One Christmas pressie sorted, when it’s sewn up that is. It might be the first of many. Last year it was tote bags this year could be the year of the handmade wrap.

[@StitchyBee]

Landgirlafloat I’m with you, it looks like a quick make too 🎉🌷

[@SugaryAmy]

Great feature. Thanks :)

[@StitchyBee]

Amy thanks Amy 🌷

[@sallydingle321]

Hi Cheryl, great patterns and new to me bar the dress 👍. Oooooh your fabrics 💝💝💝....I'm supposed to be on a fabric ban, but that floral fabric with the navy background is soooo beautiful 😍. Might have to take the piggy bank 😉😘

[@StitchyBee]

Sally Dingle thank you Sally, ha ha I’m a bit gutted to part with it, but sharing the love is better 😃🌷

[@andreanneabel3464]

Great patterns Cheryl, thanks for sharing :)

[@StitchyBee]

Andréanne Abel thank you Andréanne 🌷

[@Frugalisama]

Thanks for this Cheryl, that's 2 new pattern companies that are new to me too, I've used the free Cake T-shirt pattern previously & love the stripy Tiramisu. The Navy Satin Viscose is stunning, I can definitely see it in a dress, maybe an Ogden cami, extended to a simple shift dress, I think you've done one before. I did one earlier this summer in a viscose & with the heat we've had would wear it every time I go out. Look forward to the next video on independents. As a heads up for everyone By Hand London are holding a 25% off sale on all their patterns until Sunday 19th August.

[@StitchyBee]

Sam Chandler thank you Sam, great idea about a shift dress or an Ogden, love both of those patterns. Fab tip about By Hand too 👌🏻💖

[@PsychicKathleen]

Another great video with loads of useful info Cheryl! Of course I hopped over the Cake and ordered 2 patterns - not the dress you'll be making because I don't think that style would suit me but I ordered her top and little knit jacket that looks adorable :) That wrap is lovely too! I have 2 "ponchos" I call them in cashmere knit that I bought last year (store bought) and they are made up just the same except the seam at the side is sown shut and I've thought of cloning them in other knit fabrics I love them so much. I wear them all the time in the cooler but not TOO cold weather.

[@StitchyBee]

Kathleen Meadows wonderful 🎉 Their patterns are so unique aren’t they? Enjoy your sewing ✂️

[@kellybodie6022]

Cheryl I just downloaded the dress and top patterns they are lovely. I ordered some fabric from Blackbird fabrics here in Canada that I think will be wonderful for the top. Now just to find something for the tiramisu dress. Love your video so fun

[@StitchyBee]

Kelly Bodie thank you Kelly, enjoy your sewing 🌷

[@beckyb8339]

Hi Cheryl, l love your channel it is my top 5 sewing favourites! just wondering what to do as the Cake Tiramisu PDF says it is printed on US Paper , can I use A4 or do I need to buy US paper to print on?

[@busybee9674]

You should be able to only print the size you want??? You do need acrobat reader!!I can in other indie patterns

[@StitchyBee]

Crafty Kay thanks Kay 👍🏻 I think these patterns are a bit different - the bodice appears 3 or 4 times as separate pieces but I’ll have a play with Acrobat reader 🌷

[@busybee9674]

If the company dont inform you when you purchase the pattern then they dont cos in the download there would be instructions

[@patriciabennett7866]

Hi Cheryl! IveI've been looking for a pink coating fabric and when I saw your herringbone fabric, I HAD to order some! So I did! One question though, being 40%wool, would you suggest I make it up and then when it needs cleaning, take it to the cleaners? Or is this a washable fabric? Thanks again for everything!❤

[@StitchyBee]

Patricia Bennett thank you Patricia 🌷 I’d dry clean it after it’s made as and when needed. I can’t see any washing advice with this one, so best be safe 👍🏻

[@Allycat3270]

Here is a pattern website that uses stretch jersey, and their designs are brilliant (I know you will love the 'Sienna' top) www.sinclairpatterns.com

[@annicalundgren135]

Please I dont get the name of that lovely top ???? I really wanna sew that top 🙏🏻

[@StitchyBee]

Annica Lundgren it’s the Kingfisher top 😃 Link is here.. thesewingrevival.com/products/kingfisher-top

[@oldladyhen]

Stitchy Bee on their site (which is awesome) i have just seen they have a FREE download pj short pattern, that can be made from a pillowcase, or same sized fabric! .... Thank you for the recommendation and link x
