My 2023 Sewing Recap!

12 things I sew'd in 2023! It's good to be back ;)

I am so determined to get back to being regular on youtube for 2024, let's hope this isn't the last you'll see of me this year...

Let me know what you think!

No way! I just discovered the podcast in December and have been going through the back catalogue, what a treat to discover a YouTube archive too!

Welcome back to YouTube Elle! You made lots of lovely things last year even though you were busy on lots of adventures.

I’m new 🙌🏼 yeah for the algorithm and finding you ❤

Oh Ellie you do make me laugh! Great to see a summary of what you made and would love to know what you’re planning on making in 2024 (and how on earth you’re going to find the time to sew half of your fabric stash!)

Aww, so lovely to see you back. I was literally looking to see if I’d missed vlogs from you just this week! I could see from your insta you’ve been busy. Hopefully we won’t have to wait as long for your next upload. X

You showed up in my feed and I'm so happy! I love your vibrant & chatty style...look forward to seeing more 😊

It was interesting! Your career sounds very demanding — the variety of tasks, the travel, the scheduling, yikes. No one can blame you for not having time for YouTube. That said, a simple to-camera video like this monthly reviewing your makes, process and ideas with your other socials as reference would also be interesting!

I just discovered you with this video. Going to go check out some more! I'm not a YT-er/content creator, but I've heard from others that doing the YT Shorts are a little easier to keep up with, and help keep you in the algorithm. Maybe that would help YT be more manageable for you?

Love chatty vlogs like this. I’d love to hear about the usher outfit process. Also, when you mention something like the Ganni (?) inspired top, could you put in an example of the original for people who might be living under a rock (or in other countries like me)😂 Hope you’re back soon.

I'm a long time subscriber, and I was so happy that your video popped up in my feed tonight! It was such an enjoyable half hour watching and listening to what you've been sewing in 2023!

That purple velvet dress is incredible!!! It's amazing how the fabric choice elevated that pattern!! I love the blue trousers, and was so relieved that you ended up liking them too!

I would love to see a monthly makes video, even if there's only one item in any given month. You're lots of fun to listen to, and you're super inspirational!

Also, I tell sewing vloggers this all the time. Relax about posting videos. Sewing is a creative hobby, so it's ok to ebb and flow. We're always here for you!

I’d love to see you talk about how often you actually wear your makes as well!!
