Yay! Sewing Bee is back!

Does anyone else watch it? Or is it just me...

I love it because it reminds me of another life when I used to sew (before the DC's came along and before I lost the footpedal to my sewing machine in a house move).

The contestants are just so talented and I like the beardy man judge too. Anyone else?

the dog pin cushion is awesome - but I think I would feel mean sticking pins in it

Its a much smarter room this year

OwlCapone · 18/02/2014 20:48

My pincushion is a felt hedgehog I made in the last year of junior school :)

Don't get diamante in M&S?
Confused
She's clearly never seen Par Una!

oif · 18/02/2014 20:53

Must say I'm not rooting for diamante/waistcoat at the moment.

DebbieOfMaddox · 18/02/2014 20:54

To be fair, in five hours I would have managed wrapping them in a length of silk, tying it up with lace and calling it a toga-style nightdress.

oif · 18/02/2014 20:58

OwlCapone · 18/02/2014 21:00

Given one went home Ill, I assumed no one would be sent home.

DebbieOfMaddox · 18/02/2014 21:01

Didn't that happen in the first week last season as well?

oif · 18/02/2014 21:01
