    Hi Becky! Not sure if someone below has already addressed the cutting booboo you made on your top. I've made the same silly mistake myself. To repair it, I place a piece of fusible interfacing behind it, or sometimes a double sided fusible interfacing so I can also place a piece of the same fabric on the cut. About 2x the size of the cut. Then on the right ride, I stitch with a very tiny zigzag over the perimeter of the cut. You'd be surprised how well it works. My machine also has a setting for darning, but I've never tried it. BTW, I love your hair. It suits your face beautifully.

    Hi Becs, I agree about Rainbow Fabrics shop. Went Last year when in London seeing my lovely daughter. I am not an online shopper, especially not for fabric so was a bit disappointed. The two young men were lovely and I did buy some gingham but would not make that trip again. Have a day in London in Sept and off to exhibitions so May not have time for much fabric shopping. Love the vlogs xx

    Also, I've been meaning to tell you I love the new "theme" song that plays-very jazzy-cool!!
    AND "Happy Birthday"!! :+)
    Your top and skirt set are gorgeous on you-and I think that print top looks like it would also go with those lovely trousers you made!! :+)

    Love your new look, very flattering. Now for a bit of smugness. I still own and use, the very first unpicker I ever bought when I first got a sewing machine. That was 40 odd years ago and many more machines, but I still have the unpicker. First time I opened it I put the lid on the base as recommended, and have never been able to get it off since. Of course I have others as the original is no longer as sharp as it was, but i cannot bring myself to discard it either. Hope you have better luck keeping this thoughtful gift.

    Hello Becky, it’s always great seeing you. While I’m a huge fan of your hair styles, in my opinion your new ‘do is especially flattering . It was great seeing Adele, she looks wonderful. I’m looking forward to the time she’s able to film again. How wonderful you were able to spend time together. Happy belated birthday. May the path to your next be paved with good health and great happiness 💕🌺

    Missed you on Friday but glad to see you now. Gorgeous pictures of you and Adele. Beautiful birthday fabric too. I have just finished the Fleur- made the sleeveless dress version. I do love it but the armholes are huge and very low under the arm. I am gutted as I now have to make some extra pieces to fit in. I don’t think you will have a problem with the sleeved blouse- which I will make soon. your Esti top and Mave set looks stunning on you 😍. Can’t wait to see your haul. 😊. Happy Sewing. Lynne

    Oh Becky, I too spent a few days in London (from NE England) this week and popped to Rainbow Fabrics, and had the exact impression as yourself. Not taking anything away from the guys their, they were so lovely. I did manage to purchase a couple of bits of Linen, but i too expected a much larger shop. 😂

    Have you considered creating a yoke for your check top, similar to the Courtney Tee by style arc? You could attach either by pattern matching or blocking with the smaller check or of course diagonally. I hope you can fix it. Xx

    HI Love your 'birthday' set but have a question... when I sew lines across the elastic, i love the look but it stretches out and then is too big. Do you have a trick or tip?

    • @whatbecsews
      @whatbecsews  Před 19 dny

      I haven’t had this before.
      I will usually even the gathers from the elastic by pulling until I am happy with where they sit, space pins evenly, then pull as I am sewing until the fabric is flat, I work between the pinned sections. Does that make sense? X
