Sewing Bee! Mannequins at the ready!

[Roussette]

It's back on Thursday! here. No details of contestants yet. How many men this time? Any?

Ten sewers, six weeks, can't wait!

(Can't think of another word for sewers at the moment, wish I could!)

Novelty pin cushions ahoy!

I want a piggy pincushion!

Gawd how i love this programme

How would you do a plaster cast of your own torso- wouldn't you need help!

Gosh, Army Man sounds experienced at sewing!

Plaster cast woman is a bit intimidating.

Right, here now. I skipped washing my hair, and I still look like a yeti. I hope this is worth it.

So the guy who uses rocks instead of pins is the least experienced sewer, hey? You don't say.

Yes, Anne, I thought she sounded a bit ummmm over confident...

You know it makes sense BOF [wink}

I do like a burly man who's handy with a sewing machine.

Not THIS burly though.

Love it. Poor physio guys already made a boo boo.

Awww young lad and his teddy bear clothes!

Ah, a rookie mistake.

Oh dear, quite a few are falling at the first fence, aren't they? Some of the best amateur sewers in the country....hmmmmm.....

It's Miss Honey!

Miss Honey hasn't bought any clothes since 1991, when she found a binbag full of Laura Ashley patterns in the loft of her new house.

Plaster cast woman sounds very stressed with the first basic task!

Army man making pink Daisy trousers :o love it!

I like Scottish Lady best so far.

Yes she does, Rous. She is taking it very seriously. I think she is the type to argue with the judges too.

My dad once ironed the lapel of a jacket he made my mother whilst she tried it on. With a steam iron. The burn healed nicely and they didn't divorce!

Ha! Amanda should have ditched the french seams!
