This week, I’m featuring 2 new episodes of Carrie Cunningham. Her original podcast was listened to over 15,000 times.
Carrie is number 3 in the Top 20 Countdown.
Carrie asked that we record a new podcast and that’s what we’ve done.
In this first episode I ask Carrie about the two community works she told us about in 2020 to see how these works were still happening.
Spoiler alert: They’re both going really well with some very thoughtful developments.

Karen Dolen was kind enough to be on the podcast in 2020. Today's episode is the initial podcast about Karen and this is number 10 on the Top 20 Countdown.
Karen has an inspiring sense of style that is reflected in not just what she sews but how her work is photographed too. She does credit her daughter for some of her photos and if you go to the SewOver50 account, Karen was a guest editor sharing her photo skills.
When you look at her sewing progress photos they're just as stunning.
She started sewing 60 years ago and Karen visualises fabric as fashion.
Thank you Karen for your ongoing contribution to Sewover50 and the podcast I hope you had a cuppa at hand while you listen to Karen once more.

Lynda Maynard was on the podcast in September 2020 and her podcast is number 13 in the Top 20 countdown. Don't you think we've had a variety of community spirited guests in the Top 20 so far?
Back In 2020 I never thought an accomplished teacher like Lynda Maynard would agree to recording a podcast with me and for SewOver50. She was so obliging and there is a link on her website about page to this recording. As Jen Hogg said, Lynda is one of the many sewing heros we've seen in Threads magazine.
Lynda is an author and a teacher who is passionate about inspiring others. She is a master teacher, and has years of experience teaching couture sewing techniques, pattern drafting, clothing construction and fitting.
This episode with Lynda was a helpful discussion about how to fit clothes and what the most common fit issues are. Our bodies do change over time and Lynda shares her fitting experience with us. Having access to experienced educators makes our sewing experience more satisfying.
Thank you Lynda for your support and helping sewists in the Sewover50 community.

Elizabeth is @earletted on Instagram and I first 'met' her through her blog.
When you finally meet an online friend and start chatting you find out how rich their background of experience is.
I hope you'll listen to Elizabeth and see she has held half a dozen amazing jobs that have been inspired by her motivation to be creative.
She has a music background, a theatre background in both design and wardrobe supervisor and the list goes on. I felt with her wardrobe supervisor experience, Elizabeth knows how to mend clothes for theatre. And can't life be full of drama sometimes too?

Bobo_bun is Lisa's online name. Lisa was on the podcast in September 2020. She is number 16 in the Top 20 Countdown.
At the time Lisa was developing her YouTube channel to bring her vintage sewing joy to everyone who shared a passion for all things vintage.
Lisa is a lifelong vintage inspired seamstress and dressmaking teacher.
She created Bobo_Bun’s sewing school in Norwich UK. As a child Lisa was always making something or could be found curled up with a book. Does this sound like you too?
Lisa first learnt to sew on her mum’s Vintage Singer Sewing machine. She’d been sewing non stop since then, learning everything she could while teaching as her full time career.
These days, if Lisa is not teaching dressmaking classes, you’ll find her sewing, knitting or planning her next projectThis is the third time I’m thanking Lisa for being on the podcast as last year, Lisa kindly gave me her permission to use part of her podcast for a video podcast assignment I had to complete for my Diploma in Screen and Media. If you’re interested, the Jukebox series in on the Sew Organised Style YouTube account. Be kind with your comments please.
Thank you Lisa for the vintage sewing teaching and inspiration you provide us online and in real life.
