You should make the Augustina top - you looked so happy when you were talking about it :)

I saw a RUclips couple of years ago who mentioned that on spoonflower you would lose your rights to your designe, they could go on and sell your designe. Maybe I remembered it wrong, the name of the youtuber was Mariah Pattie. The video is probably 2 or 3 years old, so maybe it is not like that anymore. But maybe the advice she gave is still valide? I believe the video was called: all about custom print or something like this. I am very excited for your job with kinky boots and if you do the teaching as good as you did your video of the bag I believe it will be great and you will have a good time teaching. Cannot wait to see some of the projects you mentioned. If it would not to much to ask, if you would come across fit issues in your projects, maybe you could explain, how you know, what to do about them, especially the trousers or the jumpsuit. Love to you and the rest of your family, Anna.

I just got the All in Easy Fit shirt by Pattern Emporium, her instructions are fantabulous. I haven't made it yet but have made many of her other patterns. I've made the Grainline Archer shirt and it's really good. I've made it twice and have more planned.

What a fun & ambitious 2025 you have planned! I wish you every success, & look forward to watching your progress. My sewing goal for 2025 is to make a yukata. I follow Billy Matsunaga, a German lady who is an expert in kimono design & styling. On her channel, she shows how to make all the elements of a kimono or yukata ensemble, &, since a friend is going to visit Czechia from Japan in the summer, I am determined that I will finally achieve this long-held goal, & show it off to them when they come. 🤞🏽

Eeeppp so much exciting stuff to unpack so excuse the comment soup coming your way 😂 yay for jeans buddy!!! And that blazer is going to be incredible. I love your taste in fabric ;) Kinky Boots will be a great work experience for you, such great costumes!! Yay for teaching, you'll be a natural at it and your manner is so reassuring for beginners! And YAY for ipad. I have procreate and love it. So many opportunities, can't wait to see your fabrics! Ok, I think that's all 😅 no, wait, randomly need to compliment that wedding ring. It's so unique and pretty. Ok, now I'm done!

Congratulations on your Kinky Boots gig. It sounds very exciting and I’m sure you’ll do a great job. I love those bright fabric choices. I also look forward to seeing your watercolour print fabric. I still have some of your practice pieces…maybe I’ll get rich when you’re a famous costume and fabric designer 😉

I made the Palisade trousers last year and they worked really well. I put off making them for ages as they seemed very complicated but I just followed the instructions to the letter and there were no problems at all and I love the trousers. I have also made the Westend jacket. It was the first jacket I ever made (and I made it in corduroy which was a bit overambitious!) but again it went well although I prefer the Julien chore jacket that I made after that. I will be very interested to see your cord Palisades though as the fabric looks great for this pattern.

I’d be super interested in what you learn about designing and printing your own fabric! Hope you have a video planned for that :D

I’m making the Jenna Shirt by Closet Core pattern for my Make Nine.

I love the idea of the make nine. Did you do a video on that last year? I’m in! Also in on the brooks jeans. I have the fabric, I’ve read the instructions….next step is starting!

I subscribed to you because of your fantastic fabric choices :) looking forward to another great year!!!

One other potential convincing point for making the jumpsuit now - if you do change sizes in the future and need a smaller size, it is much easier to alter a garment to be smaller than it is to make a garment larger. If you make it now, you can enjoy it as is, and it can be altered at a later time if needed, and that wouldn't be as possible if you waited to make it a smaller size and needed it to be larger later.

You are plenty qualified to teach sewing workshops! I hope it works out (and that it doesn't make your calendar too demanding!) Wonderful plans, I look forward to seeing them come to fruition--plus the sewalongs. :) I've taken some embroidery and block printing classes this past year and have also been thinking about carving something I could print onto fabric... maybe I'll tackle that as a late summer goal. I also want to try cyanotyping on fabric. I haven’t given much thought to sewing goals other than sewing down my small stash in the next 6 months because I'll be graduating (woohoo!) and moving.

I just wanted to say thanks for the info about viscose. I’m really interested in how fabric is produced, especially related to sustainability and the environment and it's not easy to find the source of fabrics from many local stores. I try to source a lot of my fabric from places that rescue fabrics from landfill. This also limits fabric choice to what they have sourced and a lot of it is polyester which I try to avoid. I also thought that viscose was an ok option but sadly no😢 Your Kinky Boots work experience sounds like so much fun. No boring costumes there!

You are not sounding weird at all.😊

I think the only thing "ballsy" about your goal to start teaching in 2025, is in terms of finding the time between school, work, and Kinky Boots! Good luck, you can make anything -- including the time for teaching and rest ;)

The Closet Core Jenna shirt looks lovely (I have it but not made it yet) and the Pattern Emporium I think it’s called Make it Easy shirt? PE has excellent instructions and I’ve been pretty impressed with everything I’ve made from them.

Ooh where is the fabric from you want to use for the jumpsuit/Heather blazer (and the other one you held up) from - are they both Nerida Hansen. I love them!

Morning Noeme. What a lovely chatty vlog to end the year on. You must be very pleased with yourself regarding productivity... I would be. Looking forward to spending time with you throughout 2025 ❤

Oh my goodness, I saw your outtakes! Laryngitis is terrible! Hot water, lemon juice and honey for you! I loved the bag. I am not sure if I will make one, but if I do, it will be on instagram. 👍

I was going to ask you to show a What can all fit in your Bag, and then you took out all the socks 😂

I am trying to learn to hand sew so this may be a little advanced for a complete beginner but it is absolutely going on the list. Such a cute bag!!! It is so helpful to have all the steps and options in one place, thank you for making such an in depth video!

Great tutorial! Thanks so much…hope to make one soon. Get well soon.

Lovely bag, think I need a bigger bag than yours. Get well soon. ❤

Thank you so much für the tutorial, I can't wait to make this!

Love this selection of patterns! It's a nice mix of basics & more stylish pieces 😍

This is such an amazing tutorial!

I've found some scrap fabric from previous projects and have cut out the main fabric. I will interface both the lining and main fabric. I should probably make it waterproof, too, but I'll try to sew it before I decide how😊. I would very much like to copy yours and make one in Corderoy as a second bag😁

I've been eye up black bird bestie bag now I think I'll have this one ❤

Watching this got me super inspired to make a bag myself, probably a backpack for studydays

I was just thinking of making a cross body bag so i can more comfortably use my cane!! thank you!

thanks for doing a tutorial!! hope you feel better soon!!

so cool to see everything you made this year! Happy new year!! I loved your patchwork bag :)

Wonderful! Can’t wait to start this project. Thank you so much for this!”❤

Vincent Briggs is my new favourite. Sadly I already went through all of his videos...

I've made several of her patterns for my daughter, I love the Sophie and Daisy dresses. (I also love the Amelia dress and romper but my daughter had a 99th percentile head and I could barely fit it through the opening so I'm not going to make more of them). My daughter is also tall for her age and I always add at least 2 inches length. I agree that patterns should include finishing seams, its easy to forget to do it.

I made the elodie in a beautiful floral red rayon with the kimono sleeves and midi length. I was so pleased with my construction, and immediately my mom told me it looked like a dressing gown 😂🤦‍♀️ admittedly she was not wrong. It felt like such a wasted effort at first but it has made a wonderful house gown especially when I was pregnant.

OOOh what a lovely idea!

I love that corduroy skirt so much!

Love love love the bridesmaid bows! Such a beautiful way to use the left over fabric! And they turned out so cute!

@adamsews is a male sewing vlogger 😊

OMG this is fabulous! I was exactly where you are but last January. I ended up chickening out because it was M-F all day and I have two school aged kids and the logistics were too hard for me but I think it's fabulous that you're doing this! I love love love it. I felt all those stresses myself. It can't wait to see how you go. Best luck! I was worried that they would only teach me how to sew standard measurements for dress forms and I would walk away still not knowing how to fit real bodies. I'm sure this is changing

A bumper length video of your 2024 makes gets a definite yes from me to get me through my first day back at work. We're always our own worst critics and you should definitely at least 1 point to all your makes! Thanks for sharing your successes and also telling us what you would do differently next time. It really helps newer sew it’s like me learn more. I can’t wait to see what your 2025 plans are! Happy New Year! 🎉🎆

Ah, so many good makes! And I love that you're so good at taking apart clothes to reuse in a different way when you're not happy with them! Good on you for not being too precious about the things you've made! 🙌🏼 Seeing that last little segment about your Christmas gifts reminded me you asked for updates about we got in the gift ideas video. I actually got the sewing class for jeans I wanted, and I'm so stoked! 💃🏼 Also got my birthday coming up in just a few weeks, so exited to see if anyone gets me anything fun for that too 👀

An hour and a half?? Yes please! 😊

Loved the video. I would raise all of your makes by at least one point. I love that you learned so much from your mistakes and tried creative things. The stash busting is awesome and inspiring. This year my best makes were :- Randolph skirt from sewing the curve book by Cashmerette. I made it in linen which is a dream to sew with. A fix for me would be to make it not show your legs when sitting down. The second was a top made out of cotton using the Basics tunic pattern from Folkwear. I love the neckline and ease of sewing. I have adapted this pattern to make an outfit for a friend. I don't really swear much either.

Very useful!!

I clicked on this so fast haha Love what you did with showing the real-life piece or a video as well as photos and/or linking the more detailed videos😊 Your makes really show how much you've grown and it's so relatable not everything turned out the way you intended. Even though I think even the ones you didn't end up liking that much look great and at least taught you something! Also, yay to the bag-tutorial! I'm so excited for that! I've had this on my list ever since your first video about them 🙈 Edit: I'm always so interested in the statistics. I've been using your wardrobe spreadsheet since May (thank you so much!) and I can confirm what you've been saying about your top. It's very eye-opening 🙈

Oh this was so needed! I'm new into sewing-youtube 😅 so I don't know anyone you haven't mentioned sewing-wise. Regarding those cozy vibes and that style of video though, I can recommend you a few other people you might enjoy from other crafts: I think you would very much enjoy Christy Anne Jones who is an author from Australia and does these really calm vlogs (start with anything called "day/week in the life of an author", etc). Another very calm and cosy channel is called "Rewilding Jude" and he is a Brit who used to make handdyed yarns for knitting, but has recently ended that business and moved into a tiny old cottage in rural Scotland and started renovating and gardening, but yeah I'm convinced that the type pof videos he makes is right up your alley. Very fresh channel (only 3 months or so) so I'm not gonna recommend a specific video, just start from the beginning! 😅

Thanks for all these tips! I definitely didn't know all of them before. One podcast I've started listening to recently is Check Your Thread which is about trying to be more aware of sustainability in your sewing projects. A couple of episodes to start with would be either ep 151 where she chats with someone about what deadstock fabric really means and how there are different interpretations of the term, and episode 164 (currently the latest one) which is her chatting with two sewing friends about their sewing wins and fails in 2024. I like the topics so far, though I find the host a bit INTENSE in a very British way lol, and the sound quality in the interviews is sometimes a bit low quality in my opinion from the guest's side.
