The Psychic Craftswoman does his fleece: Part Three

Now starting to sew the fleece together, and it proving not an easy task because of lack of instructions, the work sheet belonging to the paper pattern having been lost since I last used it. This proving more of a problem than I had originally anticipated, but not to worry, we are carrying on with the make.

This is mostly a sewing vlog, done mostly without any speaking because my partner was working on his computer while I was sewing and I did not want to disturb him. I write notes to you instead, and hold them up to the camera.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy the video, I know I keep saying this, but if it was not for making this blog and these videos I would have probably never started the fleece, or if I had, then I would still be in the very early process of putting it together!

Making the fleece jacket. Part Two

Finally......I have made a start on the fleece, which has been my first project on my quest to get my fabric stash reduced in size. 

I have made a fifteen plan of attack, and have documented my progress. 
This video covers the first part of my efforts at getting my partner's fleece made. 

It is mostly a sewing vlog.




Thanks for visiting.

Bye for now,

The Psychic Craftswoman does a peeve.....




After a good nights' sleep I woke up with a surprising peeve on me. Here's how I got rid of it, but please forgive the appearance of my early morning self. It did improve during the following hours......


Bye for now.

The making of the jacket, Part One, and other things......

Saying thank you again for all the support I had from my 'Snippets from Labartere'  friends after I posted on YouTube my first effort at vlogging, which has encouraged me to continue on with vlogging, and also kept me on the Catch Up With The Sewing project.

However, I have taken the plunge and changed the name of the vlog to 'The Psychic Craftswoman' which was posted into my head by the Universe a week or so ago, and which I argued with myself about using as the vlog name but have now come to accept.

So here is the first 'proper' vlog, there is still much room for improvement and my editing skills are still in their infancy, but here it is:

The ongoing saga of getting my partner's jacket made, husband or partner chat, the chicks and Nearly Dead,  me and my dearly deads, the need to float and not sink, and the Green Jumper Knitting Project.


Thankyou for watching,

Love and hugs,

My first vlog........

Vlog 1

My first attempt at making a vlog, done without any preparation, or any previous planning, but it needed to be done if I was ever going to get on to YouTube and be a vlogger as well as a blogger. 

I introduce the burgundy fleece fabric which will eventually be a farm jacket for my partner, make a minor moan about the state of the table I am wanting to use as a cutting out table for my dressmaking projects, and why I need to get a move on with reducing the piles of fabric waiting to be made use of. 

This video is about eighteen minutes long. There is much room for improvement!

If  you would like to leave a comment, then you can do so beneath the actual YouTube Video, where you can also 'Like' and 'Subscribe' (thank you if you do), or you can leave a comment beneath the link to the vlog on this page. 

Thankyou

Trust......

Trust = a firm belief in the relationship, truth, ability, or strength of someone or something.  (from internet, Oxford Languages) I find it...
