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)

Ailsa had the choker, not Pascha.

Ah, my mistake. Would she have be rated more highly without the choker anyway?

Ailsa and Luke are more Karl Lagerfeld does Chanel, than Coco Chanel.

How does Suzy put a coat or a cardigan over her pink outfit? Maybe it’s just for warm days when it doesn’t rain.

Do you remember one year the pattern challenges was to hand sew a tie? I miss those days.

On another note, if anyone hasn’t watched ‘The new look’ on Apple TV I’d highly recommend it. It’s the story of Christian Dior but Coco Chanel’s war story is told alongside his friendships with Balmain, Balenciaga and Cardin.

Ailsa's running so late, and without having done a trial run that I think Suzy might dodge yet another bullet.

By having a murdered Sesame Street character as a coat apparently.

I love Pascha using the mannequin complete with tie look.

I doubt if she can even move her arms properly.

Oh Susy, I don't want you to cry.

Yes! That was Chinelo's year. She hated it.

I'm feeling stressed by Ailsa's hair. I wish she'd put it up out of the way of her machine!

God love Suzy. That dress is giving me 8 year old dressed up as little red riding hood for the school assembly vibes though.

Only Pasha’s looks like an evening dress though ?

The buttons look off centre.

Good point, I forgot that was the brief.

I love Luke’s but the collar

Aisle does not look Chanel sat all

Suzy's is too baggy. Shock.

Weird wide hips

Pasha’s is GOTW surely. I’d buy it.

Still think Suzy will get through. Love Pascha's.

Patrick doesn’t look very well to me

Pascha's dress or Luke's tie dress for GOTW?

I think Suzy will go through
