Actually- I've just seen the muff mop on Tony's. Love himGrinGrinGrinGrinGrin

Tony's isn't flattering but I think anyone who wasn't a skinny malink would put on Mia's and look like a fat gimp.

MouseMinge · 19/07/2023 21:34

I do think that Vicky deserved to win. Her's didn't look like a total nightmare.

Binglebong · 19/07/2023 21:35

Vicki's I could see being worn on an mtv red carpet.

Fordian · 19/07/2023 21:35

I just said Vicky for the out- then this!

I'm not sure Mia's would stick together once you took it off the mannequin. It looked pinned on.

Binglebong · 19/07/2023 21:38

I had a too short boilersuit. Painful on the crotch!

MouseMinge · 19/07/2023 21:38

@CaptainMyCaptain , yep, that would also be an issue. If it was sewn onto a person, they'd breathe out and their gloves would pop.

Binglebong · 19/07/2023 21:39

Vicki's looks way too simple with only one pocket. Someone needs to really mess up for her to get through.

ReviewingTheSituation · 19/07/2023 21:40

Oooooh! Mia is making the Closet Core Blanca. I've made 4 of them, all quite different. NO WAY could I make that in 5 hours - even though I've made it several times and know it fits me (so no need to try on etc).

Binglebong · 19/07/2023 21:41

That's useful Reviewing - we shall expect insight from you.

I love how they have just put this in ascending number of pockets.

MouseMinge · 19/07/2023 21:42

I don't think Vicki should be saying "There's not enough time for pattern matching." There has to be time for pattern matching, that's the point of the show.

MouseMinge · 19/07/2023 21:43

Ooh, if Asmaa's comes out right it will definitely be the best. I love the drawing.

MouseMinge · 19/07/2023 21:43

Sorry, it wasn't Vicki saying the pattern matching thing. It was Mia. I'm losing my marbles. Anyway, she shouldn't be saying it, etc,

MoirasSaggyBundles · 19/07/2023 21:44

I like them all. If only I had the bladder to match!

Binglebong · 19/07/2023 21:47

I can see Asmaa ending up with a commercial range of mastectomy bras.

ReviewingTheSituation · 19/07/2023 21:48

Mia is sewing incredibly neatly. When they just showed the inside, it was all beautifully finished.

I think she's made a wise decision to leave the 2 back pockets to the end and jusr sew them on if she has time. The front pockets are fiddly.

I didn't clock if she was doing long or short sleeves, but if she has any sense she'll go short as it's a one piece sleeve whereas the long sleeves are 2 pieces.

Binglebong · 19/07/2023 21:49

Tony's is looking great.

ReviewingTheSituation · 19/07/2023 21:49

Putting elastic in the back is a wise move from Vicky - I always do that and it makes the world of difference to the fit.

Binglebong · 19/07/2023 21:49

Good point about the sleeve length.

Dinopawus · 19/07/2023 21:51

Vicky's still looks like it not a great fit unfortunately.

CaptainMyCaptain · 19/07/2023 21:52

Vicky's still looks like it not a great fit unfortunately.

It looks a size too small.

MoirasSaggyBundles · 19/07/2023 21:52

Vicky's looks like prison wear.

MouseMinge · 19/07/2023 21:54

I really like Tony's. I think Vicki is going home. She's not done enough and she's made too many mistakes on a simple sew. Asmaa will win garment of the week.

Binglebong · 19/07/2023 21:54

I hophoAsmaa's will fit her daughter- it's great.
