[@jennyturner6399]

Thanks for sharing Cara. Lovely to see you and the doggies. The weather has certainly picked up now. Our youngest came to visit for a long weekend which was spent at the Isle of Wight festival, got a bit too much sun on Sunday and only just recovering from the very late nights but it was lovely to spend time with her. 💙🧶🌈🍓

[@sosewmad]

Oh wow the festival sounds perfect glad you had fun!

[@catherinepritchard489]

A really fun video Cara. I love seeing your staycation wardrobe. I’m just making my Thea trousers #3. A very good pattern. I love your new puppy too. Hopefully she’s getting on with Alice now.

[@sosewmad]

Thank you, yes there has been wonderful progress with Alice it’s lovely to see

[@henriettejosephine]

Waving as you travel past my house ( possibly?) gorgeous vlog!

[@sosewmad]

Very possibly, where abouts are you?

[@adriennefranklin5986]

Fun video! Your new puppy is so cute. I completely understand about the hole in your heart for the dog that you lost. I lost one of my cats several months ago and I miss him every day. I can't talk about him without getting emotional.❤

[@sosewmad]

Ah I’m sorry to hear this, lots of love to you, I know it’s hard, thank you for getting in touch

[@MoiraFraser]

Cara - I watch your vlog regularly from Christchurch New Zealand. I'm hoping to start my own KZbin channel soon. My husband is as supportive as yours!

[@sosewmad]

Ah that’s lovely to hear! What a beautiful part of the world, please let me know about your channel can’t wait to watch and spread the word!

[@karenh7537]

I made the dress your wearing, I loved it but had to adjust the facing slightly around the arms ❤ I love it x

[@sosewmad]

It’s lovely isn’t it 🥰

Hello from the Southern suburbs of Melbourne Australia. We probably don't know what cold weather is, but freezing here at a mid afternoon temperature of 12 deg c.

[@sosewmad]

lol freezing at 12 😅 love that. Isn’t it wonderful to be connected half a world away, I love that thank you for getting in touch

[@dialuario514]

Cara, I absolutely loved this video! You always choose the best fabrics and make the most flattering clothes for yourself. And I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it again…your hair looks fabulous! Your staycation seemed perfect & relaxing and you went to some beautiful places. Your MIL looks so cute with your husband. BTW, thank goodness that chair was behind you when you fell into it. It almost looked planned except your giggle made me giggle. Di from Swansea, Massachusetts 🇺🇸

[@sosewmad]

Thank you Diane you’re so kind, I had it cut on Friday and my hair is currently sulking 😅 hopefully it’ll return to normal soon! I agree about the chair, I nearly edited it out, but, well, it’s just me being me! Hope you’re keeping well in lovely Swansea

[@julesduff7238]

Your new doggy is gorgeous and your outfit s are all lovely 😊

[@sosewmad]

Thank you so much it’s lovely to have you here

[@kaseycruze3662]

Hello again from Atlanta! 95 degrees today. 🥵 I loved all the outfits especially the red and white! Congratulations on the new puppy. We have a very spoiled Doodle. Animals certainly do bring a lot of joy into the home. I feel that Alice will come around and they’ll become best friends. Keep us posted! ❤️

[@sosewmad]

Thank you so much kasey, love the sound of your poodle, pets are just the best aren’t they, it’s lovely to hear from you again, Atlanta wow, 95 degrees, we would shut down as a country

[@user-wb9om6fg1e]

Happy anniversary 🎉

[@sosewmad]

Thank you Nicky such a wonderful week

[@debraeverett5557]

Good morning Cara, everything was beautiful that you made the sunsets was also beautiful, and I love your puppy.

[@sosewmad]

Thank you so much she is so beautiful

[@marywhite1749]

Lovely to see your day to day staycation. Welcome to your new dogolog 😊

[@sosewmad]

Thank you so much lovely to hear from you

[@ritaadler-everett5392]

Oh, I forgot to ask, will you be visiting G&G? Let me know if Lauren is there and you meet her new little bundle of joy (the 2 legged kind). And I'd love to see all the goodies you pick up. Have fun!

[@sosewmad]

Hi Rita, unfortunately we won’t have time tonight this trip, which is such a shame as I’ve never been, we hope to raid the rag market and bag some bargains ❤️

[@ritaadler-everett5392]

@@sosewmad Oh that is a shame! All the way to Birmingham and no G&G. But I've heard the rag market mentioned a few times now. Will you make a video to show us? I hope so. I'd love to learn more about it. Have lovely evening Cara.

[@bonnieyoung3370]

You look beautiful even without makeup. I’ve watched a couple of your videos and have now subscribed. I must tell you your fabric choices have me now liking patterns I didn’t previously and your new family member is very gorgeous.

[@sosewmad]

Thank you so much, it’s lovely to hear from you

[@lyndavis3516]

Lovely to see your new makes and the new pup. I'm in Auckland, New Zealand and I'm very inspired by your work. Hope you get to 10,000 soon.😃

[@sosewmad]

That’s very kind of you, wow Auckland how wonderful, isn’t this community just the best!

[@brenholmes4894]

Loved your video and great so 'meet' Tealy. I hope Alice has got over her reticence, too. I live in North Norfolk, 4 miles from the coast, 10 miles from Cromer, the town most people have heard of. I was born and grew up in London, but moved to Norfolk in the late 1960s.

[@sosewmad]

Hiya wow Norfolk coast is glorious we nearly came on holiday there, but our plans changed- got a dog 😅 it’s lovely to have you here thank you

[@lyndaseagrave417]

@@sosewmad we've just come back from a holiday in that area - very dog friendly so you should go with your beautiful puppers. We stayed at Wells next the Sea in our touring caravan 5mins walk from the beach but there are holiday homes for rental as well - the pups would love the beach there - it goes on for miles !

[@susanbhatt3128]

Tuning in from London, but the one in Ontario, Canada (born and raised in Lancashire), found your channel recently, and loving it! Your sewing projects are absolutely beautiful, such an inspiration . Your videos are fun, your genuineness really shows through, I really hope you reach the 10,000 subscriber goal soon, Cara.

[@sosewmad]

Thank you so much, wow, Canada, that’s awesome, it’s so lovely to hear from you x

[@dianevarga4976]

Very fun video. Loved seeing the places you went, especially that luscious sunset. Lovely makes! I hope Alice is not being aloof still. Let us know! Your new doggo is darling as well.

[@sosewmad]

Thank you. Luckily Alice is coming round! It’s been such a lovely week

[@laurajones4088]

So fun to tag along with you on your staycation! Tealy is adorable and it’s good that you’re all spending time getting to know each other. Lovely makes. The jacket is gorgeous. Rain storms Sunday, typical Florida summer weather, but by 5PM, it was only sprinkling. Walked down the street to a new neighbor’s house for a cookout. Of course, I had to wear a new top and shorts I had just finished making. Happy sewing, Cara.

[@sosewmad]

Ooo I love the idea of a cookout, is that a bbq? How wonderful to have a new top and shorts, that’s just the sort of thing I’d do! Heavenly ❤️❤️

[@laurajones4088]

@@sosewmad yes, same as a bbq. I’ve been sewing for summer. Using fabric and patterns I have on hand.

[@alwaysinthecraftroom]

Oh my gosh when your husband told the dog off I thought someone had wandered into my house and was telling my kids off 😂😂😂 Congrats on the new doggie 🎉

Love that 😅😅❤️❤️

[@ritaadler-everett5392]

Hi Cara! I'm not sure why this video didn't come up for me yesterday. It just popped up. How sweet are you to mention me! Thank you. It was so nice to have you speak "to me". Your new fur baby is adorable and certainly exploring her new digs. Sadly, I haven't been able to sew for almost a week now. My husband took ill last Tuesday and had a rough time which ended in surgery. In fact, I'm in the surgery waiting room, as he is under right now. You are keeping me company and helping me keep my mind off of the last 7 days and sleepless nights. New York State's land area is approximately 47,000 square miles. England's is 50,000. New York City and London have 8.8 million and 8.9 million inhabitants respectively. So I am in the northern part of the state in between the cities of Buffalo and Syracuse. Yes, it's a 7 hour drive down to NYC. Beautiful job on all the outfits you planned. I especially loved the red squiggle fabric outfit. Have a great week!

[@sosewmad]

Wow Rita, my heart goes out to you, lots of love to you and your husband. Thank you for the information on your state, it blows my mind that it is one state! Please take care of yourself too, always happy to chat on here if it helps distract you x I’ve just noticed that the aspect ratio is wrong on my video this week 😅 I honestly don’t know how that happened, never mind, thankfully no one has mentioned it 😊, lovely to hear from you, thinking of you and your husband

[@user-sc6bb7mk5q]

Hi Rita I live in upstate NY in Parish NY

[@ritaadler-everett5392]

If you wash your linen pants in hair conditioner it takes out scratch let it soak.

[@sosewmad]

Oooo thank you! I’ll definitely do that it’s great advice

[@yvonnenorris7651]

Hi Cara, love your tank top set by MF , do you mind if I ask about the shipping from MF as I love the fabric you and they have used . Do you pay customs on it? Think I’m not far from you, I’m just outside Horsham xx

[@sosewmad]

It’s lovely to hear from you, I haven’t paid any customs on their goods, their products are beautiful

[@lisagandola2254]

Could you make the Sally jumpsuit in a woven fabric?

[@sosewmad]

Unfortunately not, but the avenir jumpsuit is a great woven jumpsuit x

[@Aberto]

It may be just me, but I find the sound in your videos seems very muffled. I enjoy your vlogs but find the sound not as clear as I would like.

[@sosewmad]

I test my audio on 3 different devices and they are all the same high quality, I know from other KZbin channels that they experience similar issues, and even when watching a live other comments come through with sound issues where they are, but we can hear it perfectly, I’m not sure what more can be done I’m afraid
