    Hello Kate and Norma. Its always a treat to see another opening. Like a little treasure chest. And Norma is sooooo precious. Big hugs to her. Loved those pants. Wish they were for adults too. 😀 thank you for a happy little visit today. God bless, stay healthy.

    I cried today watching this podcast, the way you made your knot in your thread brought up so memories of my mum, she died 3 years ago, I'm doing a lot more sewing these days and I keep getting stuck and want to ask her how. I used to spend hours sitting by her in her sewing room, she sewed every day, made all my clothes as a child, she started work in a sewing factory at age 14 and sewed every day till she was no longer able to due to ill health, she would be 92 now, I'm 51, I miss her a lot, and all the things she could still teach me if she were still here. Anyway, you brought back lovely memories with that tiny little movt, thank you for being you xxx

    Hello Kate, it was lovely watching you choose fabric for Agnes"s little crawling pants, and seeing the end result. Seeing Norma reminded me of our beautiful 19 1/2 year old Muffin who we lost to kidney failure just a week ago very suddenly. R.I.P beautiful girl.

    I so much love your Sewing for Agnes videos. It’s like unwrapping a gift, much like the suitcases. I have a tip for you about elastic and side seams. If you stitch the seam allowance down to one side, at the edge of your seam allowance, and going as low as the elastic casing is wide and a tad below, that elastic will make your life easier because there will be nothing in its way. I recently found this out and I’ve been sewing since dinosaurs roamed the earth. Yes, this “old dog” learned a “new trick”!
    I love those pink pants. They remind me of a Hawaiian holiday.

    You are a wonderful grandmother for Agnes. I prayed that my daughter would have a little girl, but she had 3 boys. I made pajamas for them out of fleece and flannel this is the first Christmas that I didn't get any made. My youngest son and his wife had a beautiful little girl and I got to make her some girly clothes. All four are now teenagers ages from 13 to 16. I can still make pajamas bottoms for them. They are beautiful children and so smart.
    Hope you will get to see little Agnes soon. This virus is not being nice to the people over the world. I know you can't wait to put your arms around that bundle of joy. ❤

    @maryblaylock6545 4 года назад

    Thank you for the camera tip. I hadn't thought of value. A trick to aid in making clothes worn a little longer. In some children's trousers they gather the piece of elastic in the front a little bit and sew it down on the side seams. They put a button on each side seam . They put button holes in the elastic for the back and bind them
    well. The buttons are used to tighten and loosen the elastic. I know it's fiddly but it works very well. Another trick is to use a zipper long enough for the whole inseam. Makes changing a diaper a snap! I hope someone finds these hints helpful. They made my life as a mother much better. Blessings to all those who are off or on the Lime Green Sofa.

    The photo of young John with Martha's polka dot suitcase gave me a chuckle. I had to get a carry on bag a few years back, and got a simple turquoise one. My son commented on the color, suggesting I chose it to prevent him ever borrowing the bag.
    The hexi quilt is coming along. What a beautiful picture in my mind's eye of Agnes peacefully asleep under it.

    Hello Kate
    I have just recently subscribed to your channel on RUclips
    I was diagnosed a year ago in May with breast cancer
    I am a love to sew ,mostly clothing but I did make 3 cotton flannel rag quilts for my grandkids
    Nate was amazed that you could get lego flannel he was delighted
    I told all the grandkids when you cuddle up in the quilt its like a hug from grandma when I am not there
    I made the blocks 12 inches square and 6 by 7 so quick with the 3 layers top middle and backing
    So they cover up a bed top as well as snuggling on the sofa
    So during this journey of cancer treatments and staying isolated for a year (I was practicing before Covid came along) just going for treatments and home as I don't even want to catch a cold
    I have been spending time in my sewing room doing projects
    It has saved my sanity and is such a rewarding pass time
    I was googling a sewing video to watch looking for idea's and tutorials to make certain things easier just tips on bias binding etc.
    On my searching The Last Homely house popped up and out of curiosity I watched you
    I LOVE your channel ,the chats ,the cooking ,the cats all of it
    Maybe you can see me on the green sofa with my tea and biscuit
    But I turn you on while I am sewing projects and listen and watch you
    Thank you its like having a friend chatting as I work
    You have made me laugh and smile many times
    Don't change your style and you are so talented in many crafty things
    I used to cross stitch thinking about digging that out as well
    Thank you again
    Please don't stop
    I am watching you from Saskatchewan Canada
    Stay safe and chat with you soon

    Oh Kate I absolutely love that suitcase. I love using suitcases for storing fabric, yarn etc. I'll need to be making some clothes for my little grandson who is due in Oct. So excited for this little one to arrive. After 19 yrs of marriage my son and his wife are expecting their very first baby although they raised a little boy under foster care but he was returned to his mom and is now 11. He still spends quite a bit of time with them and I love him dearly as he is a grandson of my heart. He's so excited that's he's going to be a big brother. I'm planning a quilt and a few crocheted blankets and for him. I'd love to have the pattern you used for the little pants. Hope you get to see Agnes soon. Have a blessed day and give Miss Norma kisses for me.

After your last video showing us the sizzix cutting the hexagons......I promptly bought one as I cut out mine all by hand; you have given me the push to start my quilt again. I love your colours and the idea of the builder's foam was very inspiring. Agnes will look so cute in her new trousers and love both.
