Heya everyone, hope everyone has had a great weekend.
As a lot of you may know I was meant to be running the London Marathon at the end of April with my friend Karen. I was extremely lucky and secured a ballot place.
Training started really well, and I had got up to 18 miles. However, for several weeks of the training I was suffering with pain in my knees, which unfortunately got worse with each run.
I decided to get myself checked out, and unfortunately I have been told that I am doing myself some damage by continuing to run, in particular the longer miles.
It’s been a hard decision, but I have got to think about my health and the long term affects training and continuing to run long distances will do to my knees / joints. Therefore I have decided to pull out of running the marathon. I will still be attending on the day and supporting Karen and her amazing efforts and dedication to her training and fund raising.
Hopefully with time I will be able to run again - but only short and small distances, but for the time being I have to rest and mend.
I’m really grateful to everyone for following my journey, and the money that you have helped raise for this amazing charity, it is such a grateful cause. Karen will now continue to fly the flag for the both of us, and if you wish to support her then please see the link below.

Thanks again xx

Hi Everyone 🥰, Hope everyone is having a really great week and looking forward to the weekend.
I have just uploaded my latest video #FridaySews (30th Aug) and in it I have asked if you would vote for which dress I should make for a sewing Challenge. The Challenge that is being run by the instagram group Surrey Sews is called #SewFizzTeaCated and was introduced to me by Tania who is Just Let Me Sew here on YouTube and Instagram.
I have purchased a really lovely teal green polka dot viscose fabric that I would like to make one of the following dress. Let me know by voting, which one I should make ❤️
Thank you 🥰

Hey everyone 👋🏼
How’s everyone doing? I have just uploaded a #FridaySews video and in it I have mentioned completing one of my WIPs, but I need a little push, and thought I would put it out to you lovely people to vote for which one I complete next! 😊
In the video I said the blouse was an Anna Allen pattern 🙈 but it was actually a fibre mood lol!

Good evening folks.
I’m afraid there is no video from me today - I’m really not feeling very well, and nobody needs to see me like that 🤣
Hope everyone has had a wonderful day 🥰❤️

Good morning 😊
Hope everyone is well and has had a good week.
Just to let you know that there will not be a #fridaysews from me this week. I only want to share sewing related content on a Friday with you - and this week I have not managed to sew, and have no sewing news as such 😂
I have recorded my plans for November and December which will be out on Monday!
I’m a step closer to my McCalls #m6044 man’s shirt sew along being finished too!
Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend 🥰❤️

Hello again 😊🌸👋🏼 - today is the day I post my very first #fridaysews 😁
I would like all of my Friday Sews videos to be under 20 mins, but in true classic Angela style my first one is not 🙈😂
It is all sewing related, as I share all about mine and a Helen’s (‪@StitchRipRepeat‬ ) experience at the knitting and stitching show, along with what goodies I came away with!
Hope you enjoy 😉
Thank you ❤️

Hey lovely people 🥰
I can not thank you enough for all your lovely comments and support on my last two videos - you are all just wonderful! ❤️
🌸
I had plans all set for my very first #fridaysews today - but feel three videos in one week might just be a step too far 😂🙈😂🙈
🌸
The lovely Helen from ‪@StitchRipRepeat‬ and I are off on the train today to London, and will be at the knitting and stitching show Saturday, which I will be videoing all as part of my 1 week me made October - so keep an eye out Monday for this video - and then I shall do my very first Friday Sews next Friday!
🌸
Happy sewing 🪡 🧵 everyone - and if you happen to be at Alexandra Palace on Saturday please please come and say hello 👋🏼 😊
🌸

Hoping everyone has had a wonderful Christmas and you are being able to rest in the interim before we embark on 2023.
This quiet time in between Christmas and new year is always a time of reflection and planning for me and my family, as well as eating lots of Christmas snacks, of course 😂
In particular I have been thinking about my YouTube channel, and what you would all like to see from me.
So far I have been making the following types of videos :
Plans
Makes
Chatty 1 week me made per month
Fabric hauls
Sometimes sew alongs

Would you like me to continue what I’ve been doing, introduce anything new, or even stop doing certain videos?

I would love to hear your thoughts 😊
In the mean time, I will be uploading a pons video shortly.
Happy New Year to you all, and thank you so much for all of your continued support and love ❤️
