Oh my goodness, fat quarters where you buy milk! That is amazing. I would be buying milk every other day! I love all of your fabrics. The giraffe fabric is so fun. I work at a child care centre and just this week we were making animal sounds and we're stumped when it came to giraffes. Well it turns out they make a humming sound. I look forward to seeing all of your makes.

What lovely fabrics and great plans for them all. Of course I love that Dino fabric and I know 2 little boys that would love it as well 😂. What actually is Frocktails? Lots of you talk about it, is it just a get together for sewists? Sounds like you have some spectacular planned for that. I love the idea of the named bunting 🎉 and I can see it being used for so many things going forward. Thanks for the video ❤

That colorful giraffe fabric is so darling! Your idea for padded letters is so cute, but I instantly wondered if it would break up the print too much? You always have such good visions for your makes, so I'm excited to see how everything turns out. I'm so happy to see you've been buying fabric!

10:33 Rachel, what beautiful fabrics and plans! I.m looking forward to seeing your Frocktails dress. 😊 Do your Waves & Wilds patterns have matching marks/notches on them? I’ve purchased two and the only markings are for buttons and pleats. The collar stand on the Sunset Shirt was a beast to get sewn in! It took me two days of sewing,ripping, sewing, ripping, even with pin AND hand basting. Yikes.
