I heard about the best new TV Show - The Great British Sewing Bee through Cidell's post on the show on her blog Miss Celie's Pants
The absolute best part is that this show is based on home sewers competing to see who is the best. They use patterns (the first challenge was a McCall's skirt)! I mean, I love watching Project Runway, but - that's so not who I am or what I'm able to do right now.
And, I so feel (okay, once I get a little faster) that I could totally be on this show! On the first episode, there were 3 challenges (I want to tell you, but you might want to see it for your self) - and, I was thinking could have done that (again, once I get a little faster)!
When I saw this last night, I said that I would watch the first few minutes - then, bookmark it to view later.... Until, I started watching. The next thing I knew the show was over. I really enjoyed watching this program from BBC. I almost can't wait for Tuesday when the next episode will air.
If you want more information - just click on the name of the show.... The Great British Sewing Bee It's a link to the BBC web page.
I first saw a link to this amazing Burberry "Kickback Lace Trench Coat" on Erica B's - D.I.Y. Style. And, I totally love, love, love this jacket. It's way beyond my basic skills right now, but this amazing jacket gives me yet another reason to continue learning and striving with my sewing endeavors.
What I love about this jacket: color, style, LACE, and, of course, the kick-pleat on the back!
I first saw this dress on Melanie's blog --> It's Melanie, Darling
And, I absolutely love this look!
I love the color, the drape, the hem line and the sleeves.... OMG!
I like this jacket - although, I don't like the way it's been styled. I wish she wasn't standing in such an awkward pose - I would love to see the definition of the jacket in the shoulders and across the bust.... (Fall/Winter 2013 collection)
