What happened in January and what’s the plan for February?

January has been a busy month!

I created a mock-up pair of pants using the Buttericks R11507 pattern. This was not an easy challenge. While the pattern itself is pretty easy to assemble, I did not have the correct size. To make the correct size pants for my daughter, I had to dabble in pattern altering, which I have little experience with doing. Then, I created a mock-up pair of pants.

The mock-up was not a perfect fit. Our future project will involve altering the mock-up and assembling the final garment.

I am excited for you to follow me while I learn to make pattern adjustments and create a finished, wearable pair of pants for my daughter.

Part 1 of this two-part video series will be available for viewing tonight. Part1_Butterick R11507/Sewing Pants or Trousers/Pattern Altering

I hope you enjoy this video and return to see the final creation, which will be available 1 March.

See what I accomplished in January and what the plan is for February. Stay up to date on what’s happening!

Hello Friends,

Happy New Year! I just posted my first YouTube video, titled “Sewing McCall’s L9507…By Hand. No Sewing Machine”. I created the McCall’s L9507 pattern to gift to a close friend of mine. Hopefully, she will love it.

What coming in the future? I am working on getting a website online so that my fans can subscribe and receive updates from me. If you are reading this first newsletter, then I must have succeeded.

I am also starting my next sewing project which will feature Butterick R11507, B (the pants) pattern. This video will require me to me some creative adjustments to the pattern, since the pattern I have is too small. The new video will be uploaded in February, on my YouTube Channel.

Subscribe to newsletters or subscribe to my YouTube channel for updates and you will be notified when the new video comes out.

God Bless You,
