It's very sweet how clearly upset Sara is that this is the last episode of #SewingBee. I assume she's also upset it's also her last episode too

French seams on bias cut fabric has the potential to create stiff lines down the sides of the slinkyness if they're not careful. #SewingBee

I wonder how the hem levels on the bias slip dressses looked a few weeks after filming ๐Ÿ“น finished ๐Ÿค”? Usually, it's best to hang the un-hemmed dress/skirt up for a few days to let it drop + then trim โœ‚๏ธ to level it up before stitching the hem. #GBSB #SewingBee @sewingbee.bsky.social #sewing

handcrank : so much faster and more even than sewing it by hand.
Hemming 4m of fabric
By hand : 30mins MINIMUM.
Handcrank Singer : 5mins max.
and they wonder why so many women prized their sewing machine.
