Great British Sewing Bee is back

[Hazey_Jane]

Oooh Marni has a lovely West Country accent. Her going out too is brilliant

[Hazey_Jane]

Oooh I love a wrap dress. And some of these are absolutely fabulous.

Oh dear, Mitch. I love the Ghanaian print and the gingham. And Richie's kimono. There are some lovely dresses there.

[Sky]

These dresses are beautiful.

[Marth]

I love so many of these

[Margo]

From the preview at the beginning there’s some absolutely amazing and gorgeous things to come!

But for now I’d like to shout at Chichi: you’re on tv, millions of people are watching, get your frigging nails sorted, you skank!

Honestly, would you go on tv (or anywhere!) with chipped / missing / work off nail polish?

[Squirrel]

The dresses were beautiful!

Some lovely dresses. I really liked the organza one. The right person went home.

I felt a bit sorry for Mitch but he was way out of his depth.

Such beautiful dresses

[Chicky]

I didn’t thing the garment of the week fitted very well but I liked the design.

I’m also a little fed up with mediocre men who took up sewing in lockdown thinking they are Sewing Bee material (do you see what I did there ). Mitch was hopelessly out of his depth.

I think my favourites may have been Richy's kimono with the oversized sleeves, and Christian's with all those wavy lines and swirly flounce. Apart from Mitch's (which could have been lovely if he'd made a better job of it), the only ones I wasn't mad about were Chichi's green animal print satin and Steve's linen number.

So much yes to this! All these women who have been sewing for decades (and have no confidence in their ability) and some newbie thinks he's just as good Mitch seemed like a nice enough guy but right to send him home and Steve doesn't look like he should last much longer. There do look like some great sewers though and most of the dresses at the end were great.

All this.

Trainers?

[overthehill]

Trainers!? So much to go wrong.

My sewing tutor said much the same thing!

Netball is not an Olympic sport. Bloody well ought to be.

Not keen on Chichi's Flo Jo jacket. The sketch just looked messy.

[Hazey_Jane]

Some of these sports jackets are terrific
