think we need one for every catagory of crafts lol

I've made a sewing Bobbin especially for the occasion, and also a few others from your requests. Let me know if you'd like any more!

Omg forgot that was gonna be back on. . . Definately watching that

It's my favourite programme! I didn't watch it tonight, I'll be watching it on i player when I get time to myself with no distractions!
.....so no spoilers please

Squee it's on! They're making a top by cutting and sewing on the bias - has anyone tried that before?

It looks quite Vivienne Westwood-y

Oh and we're the first stop for the official blog tour, so we all get the first look at a project from the show - http://www.cutoutandkeep.net/books/the-great-british-sewing-bee-from-stitch-to-style

I love a bit of peplum, I just wish I was better at sewing!

It's one of the programmes I like to watch as well. Even my little girl loves it, she always picks a favourite sewer to win.

It starts tonight on BBC2 and I can't wait, it's one of my favourite shows - a bit like Project Catwalk back in the day. Does anyone else watch it?

I'm going to bake some brownies especially for the occasion!

Have you had a look through these?

Good luck and let us know how it turns out x

Hmm, I bet you could get away without it. Did you try it in the end?

it's probably a bit late now but this is a really good tutorial for making a peaked officer's cap.

Good morning,

I was wondering if anyone had come across patterns/tutorials for making a teddy bear out of a baby sleeper (onesie). All the ones I've found on Pinterest were either links to buy a bear from Etsy or patchwork looking bears. I'm looking for one like the picture attached. I appreciate any help as I would like to make this for my son in the future =)

Have you thought about adding a cuff?

I am making a t-shirt quilt and I found a tutorial but they use fusible interfacing, I searched a bit more and found one that doesn't. Is it better to use it or are there other solutions?

If you want to add length then you would have to go around the whole sleeve... so you could add something more like a horizontal stripe in the middle of each arm... maybe with a contrasting fabric? The other thing you could do is let out the hem of the sleeves and press. Then if you don't like the unfinished edge you can line it with bias tape or build a facing... hope this helps, pm me if you need help!
