    Those baby rompers are so stinkn’ adorable, Carole! Keep us posted on which one fit better! All your other makes are wonderful, also! That’s great that Chris loves his shirt and other gifts! I don’t envy you about making the mattress protectors! 😂🙅🏻‍♀️ Can’t wait for our collab! 😘💗

      Thanks Andra and guess what?! The smallest ones fitted Chloë and she is 7 months this week!! They loved them so I can make some more 👏🏼. I am so dreading doing those mattress protectors but I know I will be very glad when I've done them rather than paying for special ones. Have a great week and can't wait for tomorrow 🥰🎶 xxx

    Good to see you in your vest, and glad he’s warming up to it, I think it looks fab! And your red tee….i like that pattern too, I once told you I had a red one cut out, it’s done but too chilly to wear, even under a vest just yet. Or a tank top. In the US we call a tank top a vest. Just happy we speak the same language, it’s all good fun learning and seeing other countries…..there are bluffs near here, over the Mississippi River, but not the sea, which I find so calming. Love the water. Don’t live near it. Ah well. Take care.

    • @socarole66
      @socarole66  Před 5 měsíci +1

      Thanks! Chris was getting to like it but then he called me a Viking yesterday😂. I had forgotten you were going to make that top in red as well, it is too cold for me too but hopefully it will get lots of use in Florida. Now I had to look up what a Bluff was!! I love how we can educate each other 😂. There is just something about water isn't there, I can just stare at a stream for hours. Have a great week and thanks for watching 🧵😊

    Your fabric haul was of fabric in my type of colors, that's for sure! I liked them all and can't wait to see what all you make. I can see you sewing up all sorts of rompers...lololol...they are so cute! I wonder what all you will need to sew up for the new vacation home. Hmmm...curtains, pillows...you might even want to try a quilt! Have a great week-end!!

    • @socarole66
      @socarole66  Před 5 měsíci +1

      Hi Deb, I can't believe I had bought so much fabric and it was all plains! Those rompers were a hit and to say I was happy to see Chloe in them was an understatement 👏🏼. Re the new home, we will indeed need new curtains and a LOT of them as they are.... not quite my taste and the linings are mouldy. I am going to take a short cut and buy ready one and then just alter to fit. No Deb.....not a quilt 😂😂😂. Thanks for watching and I really want to try and meet up with you next month at the Sewing Studio if possible. We can chat more about dates later. Have a great week 😊💞

That red top (even if it is my nemesis pattern) came out so “Posh”- I love it! The baby rompers and the model-adorable! I don’t know what it is about sewing tiny things, but they’re so adorable and so fun to make aren’t they? I do not envy your upcoming boring projects though.

    Hi Carole-I had to laugh when you said you had been watching too many American videos and were talking in yards of fabric. I have been watching soooooo many British and Australian videos that I have to watch myself and not speak with a British accent! Lol. I love those adorable little rompers, and I do sooooooooooooooo love you cardboard manikin. You gave me an idea: I don't have a manikin, but perhaps I could make a cardboard one(just a bodice size) to model my me mades and take photos to post photos of my stuff. Happy Sewing and looking forward to your next video. 🥰❤

    • @socarole66
      @socarole66  Před 5 měsíci +1

      Oh Theresa, that is hilarious now I am wondering if I have picked up the US accent too. I know I use a lot of American phrases 😂. You must make a cardboard man that would be so funny, it does hold the item better than a hanger though doesn't it! I had such fun cutting out that one, sadly it doesn't have legs either 😂. Thanks as always for all your kind comments and enjoy your weekend 🧵😊

    Love the cute little baby outfits, the fabric is so adorable as well. . I'm having so much fun sewing for my newest granddaughters. I just finished a hat to go with the one-year-old's Easter dress and I'm making some bloomers to go under the 3 month old's dress. Your red top is so pretty. I really like the gathering, it does elevate the T-shirt a bit. The blue knit fabric is a gorgeous color. It will make an awesome cardigan. I am happy to hear your husband liked all his presents, it's so nice when you sew something and the recipient loves it. Have a great week and thanks for sharing.

    • @socarole66
      @socarole66  Před 5 měsíci

      Aww it sounds like you are making the most gorgeous items for your granddaughters, I am really so envious as I never seem to get asked to make anything! I was so pleased with the T Shirt as you can see the gathering so well in the plain fabric, it isn't quite as obvious on my other tops. Chris is just so happy in the top, I am surprised he hasn't asked for another! Have a great weekend and thanks so much for watching and chatting with me 🧵😊

    I completely understand about the boring sheet sewing. I did a lot of that when we got our touring caravan, last year, with twin beds! As you say, they are much smaller than normal beds and the cost of custom sheets is out of the question - so I did two fitted sheets for each bed (from scratch, fabric from Dalton Mill) and a mattress protector for each (cut down from bought). I then had to replace our home sheets, as the bed is a funny size…. Mind numbingly tedious and awful. I still have 4 duvet cases to cut down to size but I just can’t face it!😂

    • @socarole66
      @socarole66  Před 5 měsíci

      Ok so me just doing the two singles won't be too hard then if you had to do all that!! Well done you. I know I made a Queen size duvet into a double once and that was jolly 😂. I just didn't want to face paying a fortune for something I could easily do, like you did. I don't feel as bad now that I have read what you achieved! Thanks for watching 🧵😊

    Happy #Friday, Carole! I always check for your vlogs on Friday mornings, to have my coffee while watching. I kept looked for your regular channel meme (the porcupine pincushion) in my YT Notifications but wasn't seeing it. Looked several times today, but nothing. Finally saw that you had changed up a bit. Whew! I was starting to go through withdrawals!!! 🤣 Chris' comment re: your jumper vest making you look like Amy Farrah Fowler just cracked me up!!! So glad that Chris loves his turtleneck shirt. The S8894 baby rompers you made are adorable! So very nice that you have both a grandgirlie and grandboy-os to sew for! The cardboard grandbaby favors Chris! Love your daughter's new Disney fanny pack. How sweet of Trish to send you some Disney fabric! 🥰 Glad to hear that Scotch Guard doesn't discolor cotton fabric. I've never used it on fabric other than tent rain fly seams and leather hiking boots. I've printed out the free fanny pack pattern and will make it at some point after I get moved to FL. As a viewer and subscriber to numerous YT channels, I really appreciate your not publicizing your drawing, to give your loyal subscribers a fair chance at winning your destashed patterns. Personally, I've got waaaaaaaay too many patterns now and seriously don't need any more. You and I are different sizes (I'm built just like Izzy), so there was just no reason for me to enter your drawing. Very, very happy for your two winners!!!! 🎉🥳😀 Good luck on putting 3 embroidery designs on your daughter's dress! 🤞🏻I don't embroider, but it just sounds like too much for the front of a bodice or shirt. That blue ribbed knit is such a stunning shade of blue! Good purchase!!! Thanks so much for mentioning the Schmetz Needle Color Chart. Will eventually print off and keep in my FL sewing room! I'm convinced that you and Chris should have bought a private jet instead of a static caravan! As many holidays you take per year that require airfare tickets.... 🤣 On to check out Mary's channel! xx Dori 🥰

    • @socarole66
      @socarole66  Před 5 měsíci

      Hi Dori! Yes I did change up the logo a bit but no way could I leave out the hedgehog pincushion which most people think is a cactus 😂. I have to admit I was very happy and relieved as both the winners came from the UK so it was much easier to get them posted off 👏🏼The dress for Katie with the embroidery is now done but she has one more for me to do with 3 piglets on them. My daughter does like to challenge me! You did make me chuckle about the private jet, I know it seems we are away all the time but that is us Brits, we love to leave our country 😂. The Static caravan will encourage us to stay a little more and with Chris retiring in a couple of years we wouldn't be able to afford jetting around the world like we do! I cannot believe how many wonderful people popped over to Mary's channel. We truly have the most wonderful thing going on with this Sewing community. Have a super week! 💞😘

      I have to admit that I didn't know what your meme was until you mentioned on one of your early videos that Chris didn't care for it. I remembered it was an animal of some sort, but couldn't remember which it was. Jen mentioned in her #fridaysews reply to me the other day that she's going to see you while you're in FL. How wonderful!!! Had NO idea that Brits traveled so much, but I guess I would too if I lived in Europe. So much more there I'd like to see than here in the US. Have a great week and I hope you get all your sewing done before your FL trip. 🥰 @@socarole66

    Man, oh man status going to be something if you have to do 3 embroideries.😮😅
    I think that is going to be cool. Putting the 2 mattress covers together. It will save you a lot of time in headache.😊❤😊 Oooooh, hubby's swooning!😚😚😚

    Hi Carole, I have just made a Simplicity 9455 pinafore dress. I made the size Large which is for 18months. It was too big for my 2yr 9 month old Granddaughter, apart from the length. It fitted (apart from the length) my 7 year old Granddaughter !! with room to spare
    Quite amusing really...better than being too small, although I do have an almost 1 year old Granddaughter 🤣🤣🤣

      That comment made me howl with laughter!! How can they get the sizing for kids so wrong?!?! The smallest (less than 7lb) one ended up fitting Chloe and she is 15lb 😂. Crazy isn't it?! Thanks for watching and commenting 😊🧵

    Carol, lovely makes! The baby outfits would be perfect for a baby shower gift. Also love your new tshirt, I am trying to boost my sewjo so I just cut out an the pattern for the Closet core TShirt. The big 4 patterns are not as easily obtained in my area. I really like the plastic envelopes you use with your sewing projects, do you purchase them on line? If so, would you mind to share the details. I am trying to fine something larger than what is available in my local stationary store. Thank you and have a great week.

      Hi Brenda! I had to have a look at that pattern when I read your comment. I really like the look of that boxy tee with the pocket. I can't buy patterns locally I have to source them all online. Those plastic envelopes I saw others have so I managed to find some on Amazon. First of all I got A4 ones which are too small but those ones I showed were much better. I will put the link in the description box for them if that helps.. Thanks for watching 🧵😊

      Hi Pamela, thanks so much for your comment. I have asked my daughter on many occasions if she still like the rompers like that and she did. I know I looked after the boys and didn't find it too much hassle. They never seem to be in them for long anyway 😂. As you say though, just add a bit extra on the legs, create facings, poppers on and it would be perfect! Thanks for watching 🧵😊
