Did anyone see the trailer for a new TV show about sewing? It was on last night but I did not see when it is on.

    No, but would be interested.

    Fantastic!! I inherited a sewing machine and had it all checked out last summer - foot pedal started smoking! Know it's ok now and have made a simple bag from a tea towel for my dad when he's fishing to put the caught fish in. Have been building up a bag of "scrap" material ( old clothes / holey clothes) so i can practice / recycle....

    Shd be well worth a watch.....

    I was getting quite excited until you mentioned Claudia Winkleman. She so annoys me! Don't know why, she just does! X

    I know what you mean, it's her fringe that gets me lol!
    A programme on sewing sounds great though, I will watch out for it.

    Ugh, why is Claudia Winkleman on it?

    No doubt we will see her with one of her many smock dresses on with her fringe needing a good trim :rotfl:
    Can't think of anything smart to put here...

    I think, she thinks it will stop us noticing she has very small eyes. It anything it makes it more noticeable.

    Its like watching a labrador puppy trying to present television. I actually don't mind her style on some programmes but I'm not convinced that it will work on something with a practical subject matter like sewing.
