Questions covered
Can you tell us more about your hints and tips videos? Are they like a sew along or a focus on tricky bits?
Inspiration for decorative stitches on my machine please. What do others use them for?
Can the button fly easily be replaced with a zip on the phillipa trousers

Can you make the M&M Florence less full at the back? How would I do this?
I am planning to make the Liberty Alexa frill dress and I bought fabric for it already. Apart from the main fabric and lining, the pattern mentions also “contrast” fabric, which I didn’t expect (or buy). What is this contrast for? I’m also not planning to line it, do you think that’s ok if the fabric is not see-through, or is there another reason to line a dress?
I need to have a destash and my real problem is scraps from previous projects. I find it so hard to get rid of them "just in case". Any tips on how to make decision-making easier? What type of scraps do you keep and what would you not keep? Is it different for jersey and woven?
I’m making a jacket from Ponte Roma. How can I finish the seams so it looks pretty inside?
