Lauren, your joy in these fabrics and your trip down Sewing Bee Memory Lane, was just so adorable. Your videos are always fun and informative but this one had a special energy. You've spoiled your customers with this sale. I have to admit, in my sewing journey, I've shied away from the expense of Liberty Tana fabrics, well really any Liberty fabrics. But I gave some a try as a detail with one of your quilted fabrics last winter and now I'm hooked. I find these 'show and tell ' type clothing videos so helpful. Thank you for everything.
This was a fun video! I’m glad you highlighted it’s use as a lining fabric and seam finishing. Definitely increases the high end look and feel of a piece.
Love, love it when you show us the clothes you have made, such an inspiration, you are so talented. I want so much to buy some Liberty fabric, even just a little to use as accents.
Thank you! This is inspiring. I have a trove of Liberty fabric from the 1970s (!) and it is more than time to use them. Most are 36" wide, which it harder to use contemporary fabrics.
Love Liberty. Thank you for showing the garments. Have to say I did not think about using them in small amounts inside garments but seeing how you did gives me ideas.
I have an assortment of Liberty Tana Lawn fabric that could make a beautiful quilt.. the fabric has been in my stash got several years. I think it’s time to use it 😮
Great video. Thanks so much for this. I have several pieces of Liberty tana lawn in my stash and because it’s so special have been uncertain what to make with it. Inspired now 😊🌺
This was a real treat, thank you. Your stock is excellent, I usually order online but am looking forward to visiting in person. I've just made a lovely blouse with the Liberty 'People Puzzle B' ordered from you, my first time sewing tana lawn and it is a dream.
I am hooked! I have watched a few of your videos and I love the clothes you have made! I have pulled out some of the things I cute out to finally start sewing them! I love the Liberty of London fabrics!
Loved your video- perfect timing too- I just came back from London and one of my favourite things was visiting Liberty! I actually purchased the Tana Lawn pattern that you used in your Sewing Bee day dress (-;=
thinking of making very lightweight loos pants with an elastic waist band for the super hot summer days to wear with a tunic top. Would be lovely to see the fabrics in some garments for larger bodies. Because it's cotton and so light it would be perfect.
I just wish these gorgeous Liberty Tana Lawn fabrics came with a bigger width than 137cm. The dress patterns I want to use which have a big flounce at the bottom specify fabric of 145cm width minimum.
You've been busy! Loved everything, especially the tie top & little dress. You have inspired me.. I an having trouble sourcing fabrics sadly. Please could anyone mention some stockists? Thank you for posting Lauren!!
Hello, aw I'm glad you enjoyed seeing my makes. We stock a large range of liberty fabrics, I'll pop a link here for you guthrie-ghani.co.uk/shop/fabrics/liberty :)
I agree. I’m almost at the end of rewatching the first GBSB series and the emphasis was most definitely more on the sewing techniques. They kept repeating that they were looking for Britain’s “best amateur sewer” and they gave them longer time periods to make garments than they do now. And now you could actually be the best amateur sewer in the group but lose out to those who are more imaginative about what to make out of, for example, 2 worn pillowcases and an old school bag! And it’s been lovely to see Lauren again in the competition’s first series! She was so good in it.
Aw thank you, Yes its included in the Clare Coat video and Yates coat video I'll pop the links below guthrie-ghani.co.uk/sewing-society/videos/clare-coat guthrie-ghani.co.uk/sewing-society/videos/yates-coat
They do! Find a shop that sells patchwork fabrics and you should find some. Make sure you check you have chosen tana lawn though. Liberty also sell a different cotton fabric for patchwork.
Lovely video, thanks! It would be nice in the future to show a few garments earlier in the video, rather than waiting 5-10 minutes of talking before showing some garments.
Liberty fabrics are gorgeous, but I'm sorry to say, way too expensive. Most every day sewers in the United States, don't spend that kind of money, on fabric.
Mmmm... Liberty 💞 swoon! I was on a hugely dangerous liberty kick for sometime. It was dangerous for my wallet. Once you touch it you just 🫠. My old work bestie once asked me why I wear so much "chintz." I nearly wet myself I laughed so hard. It sounds mean but we worked for a company called Fabric Images! I apologized and said I know what she means, but we will have to wok on her fabric terminology. 🫂 I'm not sorry. That will always be hilarious.
I’m loving these types of videos. It’s inspiring to see patterns and fabrics that work together.

You make such high-quality clothing. Really beautiful.

Love seeing all your makes, have you thought of doing a round-up of all your coats. Seeing them makes me want to give it a go at sewing a coat 🙂
Love Liberty. Thank you for showing the garments. Have to say I did not think about using them in small amounts inside garments but seeing how you did gives me ideas.
Some absolutely stunning makes especially the jackets and coats - they really are quite special 😍
Thanks for all that inspiration Lauren! I love seeing your makes!
Great video Lauren x
Thank you, always interesting. It has motivated me to plan a garment with one of the several lovely Liberty Tana Lawns I've gotten from your shop!

Lauren, the lines are cottons by any "round up" and they are beautiful anyway. thanks for your radio.

The bee used to be more about the sewing now its more about design.,but that's a lovely pocket 😂

loved the inside of your coat with the flat piping. Do you have a video that shows how to do this it looks so special

@@LaurenGuthrieGhani Oh thank you. I didn't realize we could buy the videos from your sewing society kits. Awesome!!!
Have you done a video about truing the grain, after washing and before cutting? The lawn to too fine to to the rip method.
Love this fabric. Wish they would make it in plain colours too.
They do! Find a shop that sells patchwork fabrics and you should find some. Make sure you check you have chosen tana lawn though. Liberty also sell a different cotton fabric for patchwork.
xXXX👍👍👍
Lovely video but honestly not one of these garments fitted you properly in the bust-they were all slightly too tight. You need a cup adjustment.
Lovely video, thanks! It would be nice in the future to show a few garments earlier in the video, rather than waiting 5-10 minutes of talking before showing some garments.
