    Honestly. Yeah. Watching it it’s all “useful” items but it’s a basic notions kit that you probably could have purchased cheaper. I’m glad you opened it all in one day instead of dragging out disappointment.
    It almost feels like they’re out of touch of what sewists need.

    I bought this advent calendar 3 years ago when I started sewing. I was disappointed then, I thought a lot of the item were cheap. How sad to see that the pin cushion is still the same! I cannot believe that people go back and buy it the following year. I thought it was disappointing before I started bag making, so no way I would buy it ever again. I did love watching the video though, I could guess your face before seeing it! Loved it! I really can't wait to open your calendar even more now

  • @jessicapearson9479

    The thing is, this is more for hand sewers. Not really for machine sewers. So it is understandable as to why you wouldn't thing this isn't that great! I hand sew everything (machines (even the used ones) are too expensive). So, I was looking at what you were getting and loving it 😅

    • @Studio7t7

  • @ohsewgecko
    @ohsewgecko Год назад +4

    The packaging is amazing, really exciting to open! 🤩 But what's inside is really disappointing, it makes you think you're paying more for the packaging design and print than the items inside. It sort of reminds me of what you would get in cheap Christmas Crackers but without the paper hat and cheesy joke! I think even for beginner sewists or children it would be disappointing, there's just no love or thought put into it, I would be really upset opening this or watching a loved one I had bought it for opening it. I think there's an amazing opportunity for a company like Hemline to create a really exciting advent calendar. Hopefully, they see all the comments here, use the constructive feedback, and make next year's calendar better 🤔🤞

    Definitely good for someone just starting out with sewing, but that is about it. And yes, you're right, people who sew a lot are more likely to purchase an advent calendar. I would be very disappointed if I bought this. The only items I do not already have are the kilt pin and the shirring elastic. And I have no use for those.

    I'm of 2 minds on this. It's a great idea. Paying 35 pound though is a rip off. Most of the objects are worth a pound at most...some 50p so I would be just as disappointed. Some nay sayers do have a point. If you read the back you wouldn't buy it. A lot of things they say are great if you are starting out. True but if you dont have a machine some of the stuff is useless. So read the back and save your money.

      I’ve watched it out of curiosity…I’m not a sewer. (As in person that sews not the other kind). If I received this…I actually would be quite excited sadly, only because I have very little sewing supplies and a daughter that wants to sew. Plus I have no idea of the value…..so wouldn’t have had an issue with that. Having said all that, if you do sew, I can understand the disappointment…things like pins, needles, safety pins and black and white thread are pretty laughable. Thank you for doing this….there are so many companies ripping people off with poor quality advent calendars (ahem…Lego) and Christmas Eve boxes, it’s actually very useful to have an idea of what you are getting for your money!!
