Sewing Bee 2024 thread 2 - 5 down, 7 to go!

[SoupDragon]

The other thread was getting too slow (and we were running out of space faster than the thread on a bobbin)

They’d better put sewing bee on! I’m not in the mood.

Evening All

'ello all.

Goodness - thingy looks so different with her hair down!

I couldn’t work out who she was.

What IS she wearing?!

This is going to be a disaster.

Q: "what could go wrong?"
A: "Everything!"

Just no, Patrick.

What is Patrick wearing! Those trousers look awful!

Suzy in the usual horrific oversized nightmare I see. I confess I did venture onto her Instagram and then backed away quickly because more or less all her clothes are like that. She’d look so much nicer in something that fitted.

A satin lampshade

No one is finishing this.

Gosh she really is Bubble from
Ab Fab isn’t she!

And yet, the fitted top suits her small frame. It's the bog-roll dolly skirt that doesn't.

Ailsa needed sunscreen.

The top still doesn’t fit, though. And it’s not pressed properly!

Perhaps she has anorexia or similar so feels she has to hide her body.

The low darts in the top make it look like a pair of droopy boobs!

They're not showing Alex or Pascha much so guessing they're going OK.

Why have none of them practiced piping before?

I am now officially Team Alex because those questions she asked Kiell: "have you learned stuff about sewing now? How can you not? Are you deliberately not learning?" are exactly the questions I would have struggled to restrain myself from asking. And it's a lovely sign that they're all so relaxed with him.

I like Alex, she’s got a nice friendly feeling about her.

15 minutes and no one has done buttons nd button holes yet 🤔

Pascha has fab earrings again

Asmaa's would have been perfect.
