Is it over already?

I can't believe the Great British Sewing Bee is already over.  I feel like all the contestants are dear friends, urging and encouraging me to sew!!

Part of the time I felt like I was still doing the Sew Weekly--sewing to a deadline (of course, without the  cameras, lights and oh, 2.7 million viewers....lol)  The BEST news is that they are planning to do another series! I can't wait.  My main question is do you think it will go the way of most reality tv shows in that the challenges will get increasingly difficult the more seasons they have?  Because I thought it was pretty difficult to begin with...

I was so disappointed that I wasn't able to make it to the blogger meet-up of the century in London this last week (crazy work week!!)  But I am super happy to report that I'll be heading to Birmingham this Saturday to attend the grand opening of Guthrie and Ghani Haberdashery shop--which is Lauren's (from the Great British Sewing Bee) new venture!

This is my favourite photo of Lauren:

And here's a photo of her new fabric/haberdashery store:

Apparently there will be a few Great British Sewing Bee Sewists there, so I can stalk get them to sign my book!  Will you be there?  More details on Lauren's blog.

So, what crazy challenges do you think they will have (or should have) in season two?
