I thought your insertion of the wire into the brim of your hat was pure genius. I loved the look of your trouser makes.

Thank you ! Love the problem solving needed this month ☺️

I love your Oxbow pants they look terrific, and the flower button is perfect. I also loved your Stasia dress. I am totally with you on stitching over elastic to make it look as if it's in several channels, or to stop it twisting. The idea is spawn of the devil as far as I'm concerned. I can never get it right, I either overstretch the elastic or don't stretch it enough. A blimming nightmare! Now I either stitch a couple of channels to thread through thinner elastic, or do what Sew House 7 say to do with their Free Range Slacks, stitch down the elastic at the sides of the waistband. SO much easier and simpler!

Thanks lovely! I saw some one do a single wavy line ..... going to do that next time!

[@janevellenderartist]

all really wonderful makes, can't pick a favourite!

[@debsmadethis]

Aw thank you 😊

Love your makes. I have just bought the Oxbow pattern and your button idea is genius! The Gofre blouse is gorgeous- so unusual. Great fix on the hat. I have had to do loads of alterations this summer to take things in. They do take a long time and have thankfully been successful. Also done some mending- even for my husband!! 😂😂. Happy sewing😊.

Thanks Lynne, occasional moments of genius here, hope your Oxbows go well, such a good pattern! Well done on mending and alterations too 😊

Love your Gofre blouse Debs and your Jenna shirt is beautiful. I have 2 'to change' projects sitting on my table and can't concentrate on what I want to make next until they have been done. Better get to it tomorrow. I'm very fortunate to have the time as I'm retired.

Thanks Libby! Good to get these projects done and they often take so much less time and effort than we think !Plus can polish our halo s 😁

Some lovely makes in there Debs, I particularly like the Gofre blouse, gorgeous open pleats on the cuffs 👌😍 I’ve mended 2 shirts and a trouser leg hem very recently, all back in the mends pile already.. my hand sewing skills need a lot of improvement 🤣🤣

[@debsmadethis]

🤣Glad it's not just me, double bonus points for repairing them again (more knots second time round !!)
