Hi everyone, my name is Lucy and I live in Nottingham. I've been sewing for a year and got my first sewing machine last Xmas. This hobby has taken over! I love sewing and have learnt so much this year already.

I started the SHJ subscription boxes as I was finding it overwhelming to choose fabric online as there isn't many fabric shops around where I live. It really helps seeing what others have made with the same fabric for inspiration.

I want to tackle zips next year. I've sewn a few on bags but not garments as I always opt for elasticated dresses and skirts as I know they're more likely to fit. 

I haven't seen the list of contestants yet, but I always find I only know one "celebrity" the others are usually reality tv contestants and I don't watch those programmes 🤣

Hi Judy,

It is really is sew exciting 🎉🎉🎉

Hi,

I look forward to seeing your dressmaking journey 🤩

Jaicee,

there is never enough time to make everything on my plans list.

I have two part time jobs and look after my granddaughter 3 days a week, so time and energy get depleted quickly.

A big lottery win and retirement are needed in my life so I can just sew.

Thank you Hayley
