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?

But such a commonly used word in MN land Soup.. there's going to be a lot of deletions..

Oh Soup!

I can't remember where it was but there was a radio text service that always censored anyone calling in from Scunthorpe...

I will love this.

Have a connection to Spain, have watched flamenco a lot all over the country.

Looking forward to this...

Eww scuba material - is that neoprene?

Oh no.... spoke to soon

@CaptainMyCaptain

The n word with an s at the beginning?

That's the one.

I mean I understand the sentiment but it's a bit heavy handed!

Not sure Matt has the right sort of material.

Oh I ADORE African print fabric. This is gonna be an intense item though.

I guess Matt wanted to make sure that even if he cuts it too small, the stretch will be enough to make it fit.

Soup is it an automatic filter, then? How odd. It obviously isn't set to catch Scunthorpe or else Romaine would have been deleted....

@dillite

I guess Matt wanted to make sure that even if he cuts it too small, the stretch will be enough to make it fit.

Ha Ha Ha I fear he can get even get this wrong though...

On the other hand I think Nicole's fabric will be awesome.

Hmmmm..... really not sure Mark's is what I would call flamenco skirt

So erm, what were you giggling at Soup?

I'm interested to see the finished article of Marks because right now it doesn't sound like it is a true flamenco skirt?

I think Nicole's is going to be my favourite. I'm just not sure about the bram stoker element and Matt's one flounce

Matt's putting a zip in a stretchy scuba skirt? Hmmm

Mark's one flounce I meant

Mark could be in serious trouble - they're mentioning his enormous hemming task a lot here

This could be interesting.

Claire was way ahead but not sure she's going to be now

@Al1Langdownthecleghole

So erm, what were you giggling at Soup?

Liz's wizards sleeve.

Nicole making her notches in her seam allowance with those giant scissors has literally given me palpitations. One wrong move and her whole flounce is ruined.

This is just ginormous sewing...

Hahaha Mark listened to what I said about his one flounce.

He's making another !
