Last night’s climax to the
BBC’s Great British Sewing Bee saw a tight finish, and for me the bizarre creations
produced in response to the final challenge of an ‘avant garde’ dress – Neil’s
innovative but bonkers ‘skanklet’ combining a mini-skirt with suspended
anklets, Lorna’s blancmange-like gown, and Matt’s space age silver skittle
dress – summed up the competition, with the winner being the best (just) of an
indifferent bunch, however the charm of the show continues to be in giving such
ordinary folk the chance to show their skill, enthusiasm and personality; meanwhile the other sewing
extravaganza, glitter encrusted bat costumes for the school dance team, was also
completed and delivered with only a scattering of glitter stubbornly remaining
around the house, and on the cats, to remind us.
