It’s the grand finale as the three finalists compete for the title of Britain’s best amateur sewer.\n\nPatrick Grant and Esme Young kick things off by challenging the sewers to make opera gloves. These gloves require delicate fabrics and precision sewing - a true test at this stage of the competition.\n\nNext, it’s the sewers’ last chance to show off their instinct for design in the Transformation Challenge. They attempt to turn party paraphernalia, such as napkins, paper hats and even bunting, into a complete party outfit.\n\nFinally, for the first time in ten years of Sewing Bee, the sewers create a full outfit by draping on their models within the time allowed for the challenge. They have had a chance to plan, but it is in the sewing room where all the hard work will be done. This is their final chance to show the judges why they deserve to win.\n\nThree finalists, three challenges, but only one sewer will be crowned the tenth winner of the competition.
