Helegant May 2021 9:57am, 25 May 2021 7,091 posts	Quote Pin Helegant I took the train last time. It arrived directly at the NEC and it was a very short walk to the exhibition area. Which day would suit?
Meglet Jun 2021 10:25pm, 2 Jun 2021 21,846 posts	Quote Pin Meglet Still following the sewing bee? It’s fairly clear who the top three are with the semi final next week. Final likely to be close. That orange fabric was awful and didn’t make a good dress at all, I’m sure it’s the exact same thing my parents had for curtains in the 70s.
fraggle Jun 2021 10:29pm, 2 Jun 2021 2,923 posts	Quote Pin fraggle Agreed! Inspired by the Bee, I made some shorts the other day More fabric is on its way so I can make more 😃

The Great Raemondo Jun 2021 5:21am, 3 Jun 2021 7,775 posts	Quote Pin The Great Raemondo Sam and I are relieved Damian has gone. We're reasonably convinced he learnt to sew by making himself a human skin suit.
Meglet Jun 2021 6:16am, 3 Jun 2021 21,848 posts	Quote Pin Meglet Ha ha! I’m amazed he survived that long. From the first week when he said ‘I didn’t bother reading the instructions’ and every week it’s the same! He didn’t need to learn how to insert a new zip he just needed to follow the instructions.
jelly (limegreenjelly) Jun 2021 7:24am, 3 Jun 2021 775 posts	Quote Pin jelly (limegreenjelly) I’m not watching at all this year, it’s refreshing! I could really do with some shorts fraggle! You’ve got me inspired but I’ve got to tidy my craft room first!
HellsBells Jun 2021 9:24am, 3 Jun 2021 28,045 posts	Quote Pin HellsBells I love Bee - all the old series are on iplayer currently, not that I’ve had time to watch any. I haven’t had time to sew anything either and I’ve several projects that just need finishing and a new coverstitch machine to get to grips with
