Great British Sewing Bee 2020 part 2

[GrandAltogetherSo]

Hope I haven’t jumped the gun, but the old thread was getting quite full.

I’ve just been browsing the
www.bigcommunitysew.co.uk/
and trying to work out what sewing machines they were using at home. I always do that when a magazine has a feature about one if the contestants.
I think Therese has the same Juki machine as I have and she’s also got the mini quilter too. Lucky lass.

Also, do you think that maybe either Therese or that slightly annoying bloke Peter might have won this year as they also have Juliet, the winner from the last series in this group?

I fear Nicole could be on the naughty step for using bias binding from the haberdashery, when the whole point is to use the same fabric....

Esme was right about the buttons being an issue!

Liz also used ready made binding. Both need to be on the naughty step then.

Claire's the best of the bunch, isn't she?

Imelda Marcos was a vile woman, infamous for her shoes. Amongst other (worse) things.

Liz made hers, we saw her cut it.

Crap missed the start! Will have to watch on catch-up

So, Mark is bottom so far I guess.

I am sure I saw a roll of ready made bias tape in front of Liz when she was binding it.

What on earth possessed Mark to choose that fabric? Which I really like, but not for this challenge!

Claire deserved that win.

Imelda Marcos was a 'let them eat cake' woman. I remember her and the husband being overthrown.

Claire did well

Why would you choose such a wishy washy colour when you've got those yellows and oranges? (Mark)

I know this is mean, but Mark is dressed in the most hideous outfit imaginable. It's like his grandma dressed him to ensure that he stayed celibate and friendless.

He is a bit Timothy if anyone remembers that comedy.

Matt hasn't hemmed that top.

Mark is in a lot of trouble today I think

"Wizard's sleeve" snigger

I like the “You OK Hun?” top

'Language, Timothy!'

Nicole seems to be having a nightmare with this. No pattern matching.

I thought Matt would go tonight but it could be Mark. I have finally got to the point where I know which is which.

@SoupDragon what on earth did you say to get automatically censored? This is a notoriously feisty thread.

SoupDragon I don't think I have ever seen a Mumsnet moderation post on a Sewing Bee thread.

I fear there may be some monstrosities here
