    Dear Scarlett, the hairstyle really suits you well. đŸ‘đŸ» With the eye make-up - really glamorous! Love that you showed that. The koala dress has turned our great as well! I hope you could enjoy your weekend and the bank holiday on Monday and thank you once again for sharing this week in a live! Really loved it!

    Dear Scarlett, the penguin dress is lovely. Great that you friend is showing you the classical films. It would be a pity If you'd missed them. 😉 I'm a bit late "to the Party", but I am watching one video after the other whenever I can. I would looove to join you in your trip to Paris, but House Renovations are jeeping me busy unfortunately 😭 We would have a wonderful time - I'll Help you thrifting and finding the cute little stores while also doing some sightseeing, enjoying the sweet french treats like croissants and pain au chocolat while chatting about whats going on in the world of sewing. I'm crossung fingers that you'll find the inspiration and information you'll need. I really enjoyed Paris as a city and the lifestyle when I was there for a Weekend several years ago. Enough to read for today! Wishing you a lovely day and xoxo from Germany Stephanie

    What a great week of treats from you Scarlett! And completely agree that your color comprehension is amazing - I've made a few of your Joy dresses but haven't been able to make it patchwork because your trait in this area is hard to meet. So I will change up the colors/fabric from the front top & back top - but I have to keep the same pattern for the 2 top pieces; side panels, etc. My eye just can't mix like you do but after I finish some of these, I'll have tons of fabric left so then and maybe I'll get more adventurous. I'm going to be so sad in September if you are taking holiday off but happy you have the ability to take some time to recharge! Enjoy and I'll be looking for you back here in October.

      Sometimes, I use an online spinner wheel to help with pairing fabrics (leaving it to fate 😂) and it does work quite well! There’s no real trick with pattern clashing, I think your eye just gets drawn to colours
and I just trust my eye and gut on it 😂 you’ll smash it i’m sure!
