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)

I’m loving Alex’s jumpsuit. I also love that Marcus has a dinosaur lunch box as his sewing kit.

I like the dark green fabrics

Why isn’t my sewing machines button hole foot as easy to use as theirs.
It’s meant to be!

The hem looked bumpy!

To be fair flat piping wouldn't occur to me. I did corded at school (badly).

Judges' standards are definitely lower this year. So many things we spot that don't get mentioned.

Suzy's dress is like a bridesmaid's dress from the 1980s

To be fair, they couldn't possibly point out all the errors.

Just winked forty times. The world is now flashing.

Why did the people who had them closing the wrong way just say they were non binary pyjamas.

I suspect that's why her hair and make up looks a bit 80s?

This is a bizarre challenge.

Pascha should’ve won that round.

Marcus needs to go.

I think Suzy needs to go first.

Suzy’s pale blue dress: I’ve never seen a scallop-shaped seam before when sewing tiers, and it must be difficult to sew well. Is it cut on the bias somehow or is it just badly gathered?
edited to finish the sentence: because it does seem to hang badly.

I think Suzy gets away with stuff because she’s good TV. Marcus gets a harder time in my view as he’s so reserved

What is Marcus doing

I liked Alex's best

Having seen what Marcus is making for this, I'm happy to see him go now!

‘Random pouches on a piece of netting' isn’t enthusing me, Marcus

The six pack thing is a really good idea.

I thought so until I saw what he was doing.

Idea, possibly mot reality. Suzy forgot to add decency. Pascha's is looking good so far.

Marcuses is a lace ninja turtle
