Hello and welcome to the Sarah Seams Podcast! I'm a fashion designer who loves to make my own clothes. This channel is where I share all about my sewing, knitting, and quilting projects on a bi-weekly basis.
I was there! I just went on Sunday. I was staying at my moms and she lives 1.5 hours away. So we just drove up. Lots of things were already sold out and still crowded. But it was great!
What a fun weekend. I live in SW PA so it would be about a 7 hour drive for me. I hope to go next year. I love everything you did this weekend thank you❤
Thanks for taking us with you, Sarah. Congrats on the 5 year anniversary. May love continue to bloom for you both. Any fabric shops about there? I am a knitter, too, but sew more often these days. Not been to Rhinebeck, not probably ever going, too many long huge lines at the many national and international quilt shows I went to. Got my fill of crowds for sure. Got the picture so yo speak. And most in April, in Kentucky, so enjoyed the dogwood trees blooming every year (Paducah). Take care.
Ugh I feel you on the Jessie Mae patterns, I've purchased a few but none have been successful FO's. Very unfortunate. And I hope the yarn dyer changes that scented wash, that is certainly an interesting choice to make...
Hi, thank you! It’s the Nebula by Andrea Mowry. The yarns are Miss Babs fingering weight in the color Vintage Library and Explorer Knits and Fibers sure in the color Skellig.
I love your linen quilt! You’ve inspired me to start hoarding my linen scraps for just this purpose. I always seem to end up at the Renaissance Faire on Pirate weekend… both in Ohio and in PGH! I’m hoping to got this year, at least once.
Hello, I hope you are well. I have seen the videos on your channel(Sarah Seams Podcast). Your video is excellent but video optimization is very poor and no SEO score. Moreover, no rank tags and there are many problems. Your RU-vid channel immediately needs to be SEO-friendly. I am a Digital Marketer and SEO Specialist. I promise I will build your RU-vid channel SEO-friendly. If necessary, contact the number given in the profile or email. Thank you❤❤❤
Love to see your wips! I have far too many, (ambition always outweighed by lack of time) but it's always fun to see how many I stick at! I try and squeeze in sewing too. I've made 2 zwgather dresses which I love and am about to start a quilt. I'd love to go to Rhinebeck but it's a bit far from England lol. Instead I'm going to Yarndale up in my native Yorkshire. Very exciting! Keep inspiring us with your crafting ❤
Sarah, your Nightshift yarn looks SOOO good! I love it! It’s going to be a gorgeous finished object eventually. Really looking forward to seeing your finished Curious Crop, a black one is a great idea! Thank you for sharing so many wips, I would definitely enjoy a wip parade. Also, I totally agree that Stephen West designs are ugly in an extremely cool way 😄 Btw, thank you for always including a B roll for finished garments. I find that super helpful and I imagine it‘s a lot of extra work. Thank you for putting in the effort for us viewers.
Hi Sarah , your socks look great . I have both the summer Lee sock project book and colour work cuff club too. I’ve already knitted both the August designs and did the colourwork on 2.5 mm . I have knitted the luna sock and the trompe le monde socks from the book , love them all😊
Hello! Happy to meet another Summer Lee fan 🤗 I’m almost finished with the granny stripe socks and want to try knitting the other design for August as well! We’ll see if I have time!
Hi Sarah, I love watching podcasts with loads of wips, but myself can only deal with between 2and 5 at most before I become stressed lol. Your makes are gorgeous!
Sarah, I found you through knitting but I really enjoy that you do so many different crafts. I don‘t sew or spin and I find it very interesting to learn about them. Thank you so much for that! I always think your projects are so well done and show how good you are at all these crafts, nevermind a fail like your Tolsta. I have started on winter knits as well, I‘m working on a black sweater and I figured now is just the right time to work on it with more daylight. Enjoy your projects , I‘m looking forward to seeing the finished objects.
Hello and thank you so much for your kind words! So glad you've found the channel :) Now is definitely the perfect time to work with black yarns! Happy knitting!
It was timely listening to your video today; I live near Raleigh and also enjoy visiting Great Yarns. Pam and her staff are welcoming to me. Lots of samples to browse! I need to check out Oak City Fibers soon-it's 20 mi away from me.
I also recently got an EEW Nano 2.0 and can't wait to start spinning on it (currently been experimenting with a drop spindle). So glad to hear that you've found spinning on it so peaceful and meditative. Love all the skeins that you've shown and that gorgeous, yummy new fiber! Love your podcasts in general too, Sarah! Thanks for sharing all your makes :)
Thank you so much! I hope you have fun with your EEW Nano! There was a steep learning curve with it for me at first, but I’d never tried any type of spinning before. I’m sure having practiced drafting with the drop spindle will give you a leg up :) happy spinning!
Sarah I feel like your natural inclination to knit summer knits in early spring and start fall knitting in July/August is perfect. This schedule gives us time to complete projects before we need garments in those weights. I find that the summer knits take forever and that I need to start them pretty early. Then the warmer knits always come in handy at nite in early fall/late summer.😘😘😘
What a pretty top, it is very flattering and your stocking stitch is so neat. Love the design and something I would like to make. I’m from the U.K. and just spotted your podcast. I knitted one pair of socks and enjoyed making them. When I attempted another pair a year later, I just hated the process, so I don’t know what that was all about. I will try again, however. Just purchased the pattern for “that chicken” and have really enjoyed making my first one. Hasn’t it been popular? Good idea to use yarn scraps for filling. Tfs 😊
Hi Sarah, lovely episode, loved all your FOs and WIPs! Just a thought: for the sleeves in fisherman‘s rib you could just knit them flat and then mattress stich them together. I did that for the Lanark sweater by Rebecca Clow (both body and sleeves) b/c my fisherman‘s rib is very different flat and in the round. I found it worked well. 🙂🙂🙂
I love the myriad ways I get mentioned on your podcast 😆 never would’ve guessed crochet and bingo. Also I am about to cast on a hot pink tee as soon as I get something off the needles!!
Thank you both for sharing all your projects! You've inspired me to try some new/different projects. Thank you for such a lovely Mother's Day episode!!
Absolutely I crochet! I think the attraction to Tunisian crochet is the simple stitch is square, something knitting nor regular crochet accomplish. I’m actually dismayed that crochet is having a fashion moment, as to my knowledge, no machine can produce crochet. That means ALL of it you see is done by hand. While we can do it for ourselves, or learn, I’m not going to be buying any crochet fashion. Thanks Sarah and Mom! Loved it, both of you.
That’s so interesting about the Tunisian crochet stitch, thanks for sharing! I completely agree with you about crochet in fast fashion. I’ve been seeing a lot of people taking up the craft for the first time themselves though and that’s been great to see.
I love all your makes! Sorry if I missed it but would you mind sharing which colourways of Berroco Bozzolo you used for your Penta Pillar?? It's amazing.
@@sarah_seams aha, thank you! You did say it was a colour-changing yarn but somehow, I hadn't realized it was all just one colour way. So cool the way the different portions play out in the various columns. I will definitely have to consider making this! Thanks again for the inspiration and info.
