The more sewing on TV the better, I reckon, and it'll be interesting to see if they tweak the format slightly or keep it the same.

Its been years since I last did any dress-making and I'd hate to have to do any under the kind of time pressures the contestants have to deal with, but I really enjoy watching the programme.LindyLainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14947163582644071221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3402767592335548328.post-71128904135092472392013-04-17T17:38:36.399+01:002013-04-17T17:38:36.399+01:00I think the show is great - perhaps they'll ma...I think the show is great - perhaps they'll make a longer series next time!<br />I was in the charity bookshop after the first episode and they said that loads of people had come in looking for sewing books! <br />I look forward to your book reviews Laura - you know I always enjoy them!Gillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02608760953744169322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3402767592335548328.post-84421181638722940002013-04-17T09:46:59.728+01:002013-04-17T09:46:59.728+01:00I think the problem with this show is that most of...I think the problem with this show is that most of us expected a 'how to' programme<br /> not a this is what we do one. Cannot fault the contestants for their enthusiasm however there is a huge space for a 'this is a needle and this is the thread' style of programme much after the style of the late lamented Bazaar and PebbleMillbuttercuphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03306948153281164640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3402767592335548328.post-813326437989104562013-04-16T20:38:25.060+01:002013-04-16T20:38:25.060+01:00I'm a real newbie to sewing and am absolutely ...I'm a real newbie to sewing and am absolutely loving it.

In fact, currently excitedly waiting for it to start in about 5 mins!<br /><br />I completely agree about the segment showing you how to make something at home. It's so quick that no-one could really follow it - someone without any experience in sewing wouldn't stand a chance. <br /><br />But aside from that, I'm loving it - and am definitely feeling tempted to try a bit of dress-making! (And maybe look into a course first - as it's quite a bit beyond my sewing projects to date!)Maria - A Playful Stitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17811550069936710912noreply@blogger.com
