Great British Sewing Bee the last leg thread (that's 3 for those that follow)

[dillite]

I thought I might as well start it. As then I won't have to go searching for the new thread.

I get that Matt's gay, but it's ridiculous how little he knows of the female figure. Nobody's breasts would have fit into that red dress.

Joe looks like he's had a spray tan accident. His ears are terrible

People commenting on their orangeness on Twitter too!

I LOVE flapper dresses!

I want to make myself a flapper dress. I have neither the skill nor the figure 😂

Love Matt's fabric.

Yeah Matts dresses allow for nipples and no bust, I've noticed.

I used to have the figure for one - I've never had the skill . . .

I loved House of Elliot. I wanted to be Evie

However I'm not keen on Liz's fabric - bit Halloween for my liking

Ooh I have some of the cobwebs fabric. Bad choice though.

Apparently it was very rare to have fringing on flapper dress because the materials for it were so heavy. Yet every flapper dress in fancy dress now uses it, because it can be made cheaply with polyester.

My boobs are too big for a flapper dress. Or dungarees like Claire's which I am coveting.

Liz us making a goth flapper dress.

Matt's fabric is beautiful!

Is Liz's material spiders' webs? I rather like it

I loved House of Elliott

I didn't know that! Thank you for sharing.

I wish they'd re-show it Rebecca,

The stories and the clothes were amazing.

The fabrics were superb!

Three layers and a hankerchief hem? Ambitious when time limited, hope it works out.

Claire's looks overcomplicated. Can she do it in the time?

I wish Nicole would give herself a week off from Really Challenging Fabric.

Just once.

Wonder how tall Clare is? I think she must be about DD's height (5'11").

She always seems to dwarf the others.

Joe is 6' so I'd say she's around 5'9

Mine would have (pre surgery) . I used to be 30HH over a 28 inch waist. Only problem is that, although my boobs would have fitted in there, the low back and halterneck would prevent the wearing of a bra and I would have knocked myself out if I needed to walk faster than a stroll.

You'll find this site really interesting, Bingle

You haven't got time to charleston Clare!
