What a wonderful concert despite the weather. Really uplifting and it sounds like it is very much needed in your world at the moment. Prayers for your Dad and fingers crossed all will be well with you too. The rate at which you sew is phenomenal- I am in awe. I love the new Helen’s Closet bikini pattern and look forward to seeing how your turns out. Have a good week😊. Lynne
Lots of lovely outfits Cara, thanks for sharing. Lots of best wishes for your Dad’s speedy recovery and fingers crossed for the results of your biopsy. 💙🧶🌈🍓
Cara sending so much love!!! You’ve had a lot on your plate!! I hope your dad is doing ok ❤❤❤ Thanks for taking us along to the concert.. and oh my word. The rain!!! This “summer” eh?? And that green dress…. 💚💚🤪
Hello Cara l am from Detroit MI in the USA. I am making polo shirts sleeveless and with sleeves. I like when you show where you and your husband have been. Thank You Cara for sharing, you have some beautiful remnants!
I enjoyed the catch up and I look forward to the UK weather updates! I’m in western Canada and we’ve had two weeks of very hot sunny +30 degree Celsius weather. However, I much prefer a cloudy day and cooler weather, lol 😊
Here in France the weather has been pretty rubbish too. A few hot days but loads and loads of rain and quite a few storms. The owner of the forest where we walk the dog says he has never seen it so wet and he has lived here more than 60 years. I do sympathise with your dog sitting problems. We have long had the same issues and my current dog hates being in the car, so travelling with her is very difficult. I do hope you find a solution. Speak to your vet as they often know people they trust. I do love your black eyelet cami and think I will make something similar myself. I am just making my first Donny shirt that I am really enjoying. Love seeing all the remnant items you have made and the fabrics are gorgeous.
Lovely vlog as always Cara. I hope your Dad is better soon, and your thyroid issues are easily resolved. Seeing that fantastic concert must have been amazing, not withstanding the weather. I am from sunny Queensland, Australia but at the moment we are going through a cold snap (9 degrees to 19 today. Hopefully the weather in the UK warms up soon. Have a good week and fingers crossed 🤞 for your Dad.
I’m so sorry that your dad is ill, Cara. I stopped and said a prayer for him. Oh, I do love to listen to Andrea B, and his son, too! Your garment makes are wonderful! Don’t we all love some quick sewing projects? 😘
Lovely to "see" you, Cara. You and I need to stay away from hospitals! I do hope your dad rebounds quickly and is able to return home soon. I'm sorry to hear about your own stresses with your thyroid. I never had an issue with mine until I hit menopause - what an annoyance. Hopefully yours will be resolved without further intervention. I want to thank you for posting the video clips of the concert. What an absolute treat to hear both of them! It's funny that you made Pamona shorts this week. I did as well! I finally broke down and bought the pattern. I can see why it's so popular and it uses so little fabric! I also printed out the new free pattern from Maison Fauve, the Grenadine mini skirt. It is so beautiful and I love the swoosh design detail using piping. With my most recent patterns and fabric delivery from them, I couldn't stop smelling the fabric! It makes me sound crazy, but I loved the scent on it so much I emailed their customer service and asked what they used. Did you know that Emilie has been working with a perfume company to create a new scent specifically for MF? They will be offering it on their site in September. It's so elegant and lovely. Goodness, I do ramble on. Have a wonderful week and I look forward to your next update. All my best to you and your dad.
We're in the Dordogne- 34°C today...and I'm making the Shelby Romper from True Bias. Love the excerpts from the concert. Prayers for your dad...my dad is also ill so I understand. Xxx
Hi Cara I’ve been through the whole thyroid biopsy business 4 years ago, fingers crossed for you and best wishes to your Dad. I’m in Ireland sewing some Cushin covers for my new house. I got some old furniture reupholstered and asked the lady to keep the scraps for me so I’m doing some matching patchwork Cushin covers. Take care ❤
Great vlog as always, goodness you must have such big wardrobes. Love your remnant makes. Sorry your health is not the best I hope you get better soon ❤❤
Also love the Avenir in that gorgeous colour!! It’s reminded me I have some double gauze in that colour which could be a lovely Avenir… consider me inspired! 🥰😂
A powerhouse! As usual your energy and inspiration is overflowing onto the screen. All the best for your dad and the biopsy. France needs your energy ans excitement so hope you find a solution for the dog-a-logs too. Sending love and hugs.
Hey honey, sorry to hear you have so much going on personally, I hope your Dad recovers quickly and all is ok with your results. As always you are so positive and sunny 🙂looks like a busy week and some fabulous makes.
Hi Cara. Lovely makes. The concert was fabulous and praying for your Dad’s health. The weather in Sydney is fabulous, sorry. Mid winter getting a tan in my sunroom out of the cool breeze.
Love that green on you😍 So many wonderful makes. I seriously behind with sewing & vlogging as we’ve had a far few hospital/drs appointments too, it seem to fill the diary! Well wishes to you and your family 💐
Wishing good outcomes for you and your dad. We have had a couple of weeks here of 100+ and are looking forward to cooler temps but probably not until end of august. Love your scrap busting makes.
Sending good vibes for your dad Cara....I hope he gets better soon. Also that you have a good outcome from your biopsy too. Love the green dress...its gorgeous 😍. Well done using all your remnant fabrics...so industrious as always. Loved the clip of the concert, that was amazing...thankyou 😊
I hadn't heard of Katherine Jenkins. She really does have a great voice! Please be good to yourself. Best wishes for the health of your father and you! - Kelly
Love all of your scrap buster makes and gorgeous green Cuba Libre. Angela’s looks a bit too large, but I hope she’s able to work out the fit because it’s stunning. I took my sewing machine and overlocker in for servicing, and when I went to pick them up, only the sewing machine was ready. I’ll have to work on projects that don’t require overlocking. I’m sorry to hear that your dad is feeling poorly and hope that he feels better soon. Happy sewing, Cara.
Oh no overlocker…. How are u feeling 😅 I knew there was a reason I don’t take mine for service! I think my dress is quite big too, but I do love it , I hope you’re keeping well? Xx
Hot, hot , hot here in Atlanta! 🥵 I thoroughly enjoy your videos but am sorry to hear of your health and family issues. Loved the items you shared. ❤️❤️
What a night to remember. Love Katherine Jenkins. I’m a California girl living in The Netherlands and share your weather angst. Hope summer has arrived in this part of Europe by the time you go to France! Nice makes.
Hi Cara, very sorry to hear that your father is unwell and that this has coincided with your biopsy. Thank you for making this video given your week. As always beautiful makes, and your warm, engaging, delightful personality makes me feel I am listening to a friend. The Cuba Libre dress is my next project. Thank you for the inspiration. You are a ⭐️x
Hi Cara and thanks for sharing everything you’ve made and experienced. Sounds like a mixed bag - hope your Dad improves soon and that all’s well with your biopsy. Sewing is a wonderful distraction isn’t it and what a productive week you have had. Great to use up your leftover remnants. Kathryn Jenkins and Andrea Bocelli must have warmed your heart - how wonderful! Keep smiling and all the best, Sue ❤
Absolutely love your videos Cara, no matter what you’re going through you remain so positive and uplifting. We should all be more like Cara! Really hope everything works out with your Dad and you find a holiday home for your four legged family when you go to France. Absolutely love your Cuba Libra dress, I’m so inspired by you. 😊
Cara, you are such a lovely person. Your vlogs are always so interesting and uplifting. Wishing you and your dear father good health and positive outcomes. ❤
I know an elderly lady who lives near me who takes a family pet into her home whilst the owner is away. Im not sure who shes registered with but there might be somebody like that near you who you could find and see if they both get along together as a solution .
Hope your dad starts to feel better soon. Keeping fingers crossed for your biopsy. Love all your makes, you are such a speedy sewer and always look so elegant
A brilliant video as always. Your garments are beautiful. Sending lots of positive vibes for you and your Dad. Your video clips have brought back happy memories of the concert - its hard to believe that a week has passed already. I think that my back has just about recovered - standing for such a long time in the one spot was a little painful by the end, but it was worth it.
Oh gosh I hope you’re ok, you’ll know exactly what I mean then 😅 wasn’t it a brilliant concert, rain aside 🤣, thank you for your well wishes, it means such a lot to me x
You’re so right, definitely a good ole British concert. We all roll with the weather don’t we! Makes us strong stuff 🤣 I really appreciate your support means the world to us x
Fabulous concert, I’m very envious - sorry the weather didn’t cooperate 🙄 Love all your remnant makes - wow you are a speedy sewist 😊😂 Hope your dad feels better soon and you are both okay 🤞
What a wonderful concert despite the weather. Really uplifting and it sounds like it is very much needed in your world at the moment. Prayers for your Dad and fingers crossed all will be well with you too. The rate at which you sew is phenomenal- I am in awe.

Thank you so much lynne, the concert was amazing and I’m so lucky to have such a hobby to distract me from the world occasionally ❤️
Lots of lovely outfits Cara, thanks for sharing. Lots of best wishes for your Dad’s speedy recovery and fingers crossed for the results of your biopsy. 💙🧶🌈🍓
Thanks Jenny still in hospital at the moment, so progress but he is in the best place x
Sorry to hear about your Dad. Sending lots of healing thoughts and hope your biopsy comes back all ok ❤
Thanks Ruan, it’s been quite a week!
Your mention of Bocelli made me laugh. I had one of his CDs and my kids would say “mom’s listening to lover-boy again!”
lol I love this, made me laugh out loud x
Cara sending so much love!!! You’ve had a lot on your plate!! I hope your dad is doing ok ❤❤❤
Thanks for taking us along to the concert.. and oh my word. The rain!!! This “summer” eh??
