    We are all so sorry about your loss. Losing one's parents is a real challenge for all of us. Please take really good care of yourself during your time of mourning. It is important. As a 76 year old woman I want to encourage you in your journey discovering your gray hair. All my life my brown hair was fine and straight, and now it is thicker, and actually has a nice wave in it! What a happy surprise! It is looking better than ever, and I am enjoying it.

    So sorry to hear of your mum passing such a sad time. I lost my mum many years ago, miss her terribly. I embraced going grey last year and have not looked back..welcome to the exclusive silver fox ladies ❣❣

    Tow things Cheryl. First blessings to you as you mourn your Mom. May you celebrate her life with peace and thanksgiving. Second way to go with your hair!! I started not dying my hair when I was 48 (I’m now 61) and i haven’t looked back. You are lovely just as you are!

    Great sympathy for your loss. How lovely to celebrate your Mom’s life with bright colors. Best of luck going grey. It took me 3 years but my hair is longer. I only wish I’d done it earlier. I love the natural white streaks I now have.

    • @StitchyBee
      @StitchyBee  5 лет назад

      thank you Lisa 💕 I love natural white and grey, enjoy yours and well done for persevering.x

    Lovely to see you back, so sorry to hear about your mum. I made the sapporo coat earlier this year and really love it. I made it with a length of mohair suiting I bought over thirty years ago! Beautiful fabric but a little on thick side so I didn't do the double cuff, just attached a turn back piece and lined it to that point. That worked very well and solved the problem of the very thick seam at the sleeve join.

    • @StitchyBee
      @StitchyBee  5 лет назад

      thank you Glenys 💕 Wow, fabulous you got to use your mohair suiting after all this time. Now I don't feel so bad about the length of time my fabric sits in my stash, ha ha.x Great tip on the sleeve, thank you.

    @Originallyadressmaker 5 лет назад

    My sympathies on the loss of your Mum.
    As far as you hair goes....good for you! I went natural grey about 9 years ago at about 42 and my only regret was not doing it sooner because I had been grey under the dye for many years. I love mine and have never regretted it. A huge saving at the hairdresser but also it feels so nice to not have to put all those chemicals on my head.
    Thanks for the review, I have been thinking of this pattern!

    • @StitchyBee

    @loriannpayne4483 5 лет назад

    What a lovely and loving video Cheryl. Beautiful coat too. I’m powering through the Jasika Blazer from Closet Case Patterns and slowly sewing it as I watch her online class. I can’t even fathom how the people on the Great British Sewing Bee could make a coat in 5-6 hours! I’m slowly learning and enjoying the process. Hugs to you.

    • @StitchyBee
      @StitchyBee  5 лет назад +1

      thank you Loriann 💕 Ha ha yes I thought about the Sewing Bee too when I was making this one, there's no way I would have done it in 5 hours without making a tonne of mistakes, it really does annoy me that show ha ha. Enjoy your slow sewing, it's by far the best way.x

  • @jojorey6886
    @jojorey6886 5 лет назад

    You will look just beautiful with your natural color hair. My hair was the same color as yours and I grew mine out last year. I get more compliments now than I ever did before. Now my hair has depth, when it was black it was just dark, for my entire life- boring. Now it’s fun, I just love it. And.....if you don’t like it you can always color it but I think you’re going to love silver hair.

    • @StitchyBee
      @StitchyBee  5 лет назад +1

      thanks JoJo, I'm hopeful it'll be more interesting on me too, as you say, a block of colour is a bit dull. Glad to hear you're enjoying yours 🌷

  • @jimsmith3535
    @jimsmith3535 5 лет назад +1

    I also have a hair related tip-I am a retired hairdresser, and to get you through the "rough patch" of growing out the gray/white, I suggest you have your hair stylist give your hair a foil and do some highlights with the colors of white and gray. It can be done in such a way to look quite natural, and will look really nice while you go through this transitioning period!! Just a tip-I hope you take it in the kind spirit it was intended!! :+) Diane

    • @StitchyBee
      @StitchyBee  5 лет назад

      aww, thanks Diane 😊 I know its an option, I just prefer it natural. My curls will thank me later.x

    So sorry about your mum. Mine was the same age when we lost her 3 years ago. Too young. I love your dress, I bought a dress from a charity shop for my mum's funeral, with the intention of giving it away again afterwards, but its still hanging there! I didn't sew then. Your Sapporo is lovely too, I also used Sophia's sew along for mine. Its good to see you back!

    Great to see you back Cheryl. The dress you made is lovely and the coat is too. Loving the grey look. I’m trying that too but wasn’t sure best way to do it, so think I’ll just let it grow put like you. Thanks as always for sharing. Great tips as always😻

    • @StitchyBee
      @StitchyBee  5 лет назад

      thanks Agnes 🌷 The root touch up sprays are good if you feel you need to 'dress up', although I'm enjoying just being me most of the time, but I guess it's easier as I work alone, ha ha. Just the dog to impress here :-) Hubs isn't keen, he said he married a brunette, but I swiftly reminded him I married a man with hair and that was the end of that little conversation, ha ha.x

  • @annehill2729
    @annehill2729 5 лет назад

    Sorry to hear your news, Cheryl. It’s a hard time, but all will be well. The dress you made is beautiful and I hope you will enjoy wearing it and making happy new memories in it. Funny you brought up the hair thing... I met someone in passing recently (an estate agent showing us round a house) and she was also just starting out on growing out the grey. She was obviously quite self-conscious about it, as she brought it up, but I hadn’t noticed, just thought she looked chic! As you do! Glad you’re back. I look forward to more sewing and fabric advice. X

    I understand your sorrow, as I have had the same experience. You sound good and I am glad. I was just starting the Sapporo Coat (in blue wool), so, naturally I was thrilled to see your review and your tips. I hope mine turns out half as nice as yours. My hair is greying and I do love it - it has a way of softening the lines in your face, not that you have any. I am almost 70 and my hair is still almost black, just starting to grey. I am thrilled to see the grey coming in and feel I have earned a beautiful head of gorgeous grey hair. Yours will be beautiful! I did subscribe to your Instagram channel. Have a wonderful week and God Bless.

    • @StitchyBee
      @StitchyBee  5 лет назад

      thank you Dana 💕 Yes I agree about the grey softening lines, it really does. There are lots of lovely pics on Instagram of ladies in a similar position to us.x Have a wonderful week too.

I think you are brave to have made a special (and beautiful) dress and to let your hair go natural. Best of luck with that. I think you will look gorgeous with your new color.

Your dress seems ideal, I know that my mum would prefer people to be in nicer colours than black, because she is fun loving and cheery! Your coat is amazing!

    You have my deepest sympathy on your mother’s passing. The dress is lovely. I have been grey since age 26, and fought it for 19 yrs. iI decided to embrace my grey a year ago, and I’m glad I did. It was an adjustment going from deep auburn to this color and some days I miss the auburn. What i don’t miss is the hassle and the expense. If you feel it’s time, then go for it.

    Lovely to see you back Cheryl. So sorry to hear about your mum...it's been a pretty tough few months for you. Love the idea of making that beautiful dress and making the wake one of colour and good memories. Your coat is gorgeous and really suits you. I'm also stuck in the colour trap...I went grey in my twenties! I took the shade right down to ash blonde a few years ago - I'm naturally a very dark brown - so I've been able to get away with a colour every 6 weeks which is not so bad. I got rid of the dark colour a little drastically though by having it cut very short...which I absolutely hated...and it seemed to take forever to grow back. Grey will look beautiful on you. Hugs xxx

    I have just gone grey naturally and I have had so many people say they love my colour. I’m very lucky to have that steel grey look, which I know very one seems to want.
    Keep going it’s worth it. It did help get through it when you have it cut. Love the coat.. x

    So sorry to hear about your loss- I lost my Mom in June 2018 and I know how hard it is to deal with the daily things and reminders as well as estate stuff that is necessary. I hope time eases things for you and you just have the good memories. Sending prayers and happy thoughts. What a beautiful dress you made! Thank you for sharing.

    I am so sorry to hear about your mom. You are such a beautiful person inside and out. I have been missing you as well. As a silver haired lady, I understand about growing it out. That is the hardest part, but then you are done. You can use the money you used to spend on hair color on fabric. I am definitely interested in making that coat. Beautiful!

    I am so sorry to hear of your loss. My Father died 20 years ago, and not a day goes by that I don't miss him and think of him. My Mother died 7 years ago, and the same with her-always in my thoughts and I miss hearing their laughter and their sage advice.
    May God guide you through this most difficult time in your life. I'd like to say it gets easier-and in some ways, I guess it does, but there will always be a hole in your heart and life-that no one else can fill.

    So sorry to hear of your loss. I lost my Mum, 4 years ago, and she showed me how to craft and sew. I am so appreciative of her skills, and how she taught me style and substance. Crafting and sewing give me great pleasure, and also give me some sanity in this mixed up world as a creative release, and they also give me fond memories. Fun coat. Best wishes during this time.

    My thoughts go with you. So sorry for your sad loss, and I trust you are able to cherish happy memories she gave you in younger days.
    Sadly my son took his own life on Feb 24th so heart ache all around, and so I understand what you mean about organising funerals etc, when it's the last thing you want to do. And the exhaustion of sadness and grief.
    I love your sewing Chanel, and thank you for the information and motivation you've given me in the past. I'm sure your mum was proud of your success, and I hope you continue to be able to enjoy what you do with your business and media. Xx
    Btw, I also decided to go grey with attitude, once you get over the initial change process it's pretty cool. Xxx

    My sincerest condolences on the passing of your Beloved Mum Cheryl. It is lovely to see you again here on RUclips, and I do love the coat you have made so much I am thinking of making it myself! I, too, stopped dyeing my hair when the "silver" hair came through, the dye is not good for us (studies have found that is does affect you health wise and sediments of hair dye has been found in the liver....), and not good for our environment, plus you are a 'slave' for dyeing your hair all the time, and the cost (financially and time wise). I look forward to seeing your new fabrics too, please don't forget if you get the glow in the dark cat jersey in stock again, please let me know
