ABOUT THIS CHANNEL: Welcome to My Mum Makes! I’ve started this channel as a creative outlet to share my sewing projects online. I’ve loved to sew since my Mum taught me as a little girl and I find it relaxing, productive and fun. I love the chance to make things for my kids, myself and our home and I want you to feel motivated to give sewing a try and get creative. I think creativity is good for us especially as Mums. We can get so stuck in our everyday repetition, but spending some me-time creating something is a great way to unwind, prioritise our needs and use our brains in a different way to the everyday. Don’t forget to follow me on Instagram @mymummakes.marie to see more of what I’m up to.
GET TO KNOW US: * Where are you from? South Australia * What sewing machine do you use? Janome DC2150 – would definitely recommend Janome, can’t go wrong.
To celebrate getting to 10k subscribers on YouTube I decided to make these Reusable Fabric Party Hats! The hats would be great for a kids birthday party, Christmas or any other celebration. And the best part is they're a more sustainable option than a paper hat which eventually are disposed of. These Fabric Party Hats can be used over and over again. This is a beginner friendly, simple tutorial with both a sewing tutorial and a no-sew version using hot glue.
Thank you to everyone who has subscribed to me so far! I'm so proud to have reached 10k subscribers and I share a bit about my journey so far with you in todays video.
Let's get making!

Last week I travelled to Darwin to visit my sister for her engagement party! Being a tropical place, I needed some bathers to wear for my trip but because I wasn't finding any maternity swimwear that suited my needs I decided to make some maternity swimming shorts! I had no pattern and no time (I was making them the night before I left on my trip). It can be hard to find maternity clothes that fit comfortably but I'm really happy with how these maternity shorts turned out.
Let's get making!

Chatty sew with me video as I make some face masks and talk about the latest 2nd Wave lock down we're experiencing at the moment here in Adelaide.
On Wednesday it was announced that Adelaide was going into an immediate lock down. After months of not feeling the affects of Covid-19, we are now in the 2nd Wave. AND to top it all off we were mid-way through our renovations. Half of our house is a construction site and the other half is filled with the contents of our entire house. And we're now not allowed to leave. ARRRR!
Since filming this video it now seems there has been some big scandal with the Woodville Pizza Bar that has sent all of us into lock down POSSIBLY unnecessarily! Crazy times!
Although we haven't needed them for the whole of the pandemic so far, it's now time to make masks.
Let's get making!

Sooo hand sewing is not my most favourite thing in the world. BUT today I'm showing you how I mended two different types of holes in the thighs of some of our jeans. It's a pretty common problem to need to fix jeans so I hope this is a helpful tutorial that you can use to mend any holes you come across too.
I made this video in November as part of my 'How much can I sew in a week?' challenge which I'll link below if you want to watch:
