Series 9: Episode 2
It’s not exactly a holiday this week for the sewers, as judges Patrick Grant and Esme Young task them with creating garments based around a travel wardrobe. \n\nIt's a Sewing Bee first in the Pattern Challenge, when Sara Pascoe reveals they have to make a rucksack. This fiendishly tricky challenge involves battling complex strap construction, complete with metal hardware for adjustment. They must also add a lining to create a robust and stylish bag ready to hit the backtracking trail.\n\nIt’s off to the seaside in the Transformation, when the sewers are challenged to sculpt windbreakers into emergency rainwear.\n\nAnd staying in the sun, they attempt another Sewing Bee first with made- to-measure swimsuits. For some, their costume is designed for open-water swimming, for others it’s strictly poolside posing. Who will make a splash, and who will take a nose dive and be the second sewer to leave the competition?
