    Default The Great British Sewing Bee

    This is a wonderful series about sewing. It's on the Roku channel. Anyone watching it? I'm finished season 2 and will start season 3 tonight. I think ten seasons are available now.

    I'll have to check it out as I have a Roku on both of my TVs but rarely turn it on. Thanks for the tip.

    I just started season 5. i've been fighting the urge to binge watch. i try to watch no more than one episode per day because i know i'll be "sorry" when there are no more to watch.

    i grew up on garment sewing - didn't take up quilting until i was [mumble, mumble] years old - so it's especially interesting to compare the way i was taught to do things and the way the sewers do.

    Love this show! Been watching since season 1. As the season's progress, the biggest gripe is the time to sew the garment seems to get impossibly short. But I love to sew clothes, and everyone is so much nicer to each other than on Project Runway. I think I can finish big stitching my latest project watching one more episode of Sewing Bee!

    I never understood the time limit on these type of shows. A couple more hours to sew a nice finished garment would be worth it And have the mannequin the sewer's size. At least they could wear some of the things they made. But I'm not a producer of tv shows. LOL

    I went into my Roku and set up the recordings for the Great British Sewing bee. Seems there are 14 seasons so it's been around for a long time. Haven't had time to actually sit down and watch any of it but at least I have it recording the shows now.

    You can watch any episode anytime. I don't see the need to record them. I have found with most streaming channels if the show is dropped from the channel the recordings are too.
