    sew-projects July 17, 2020

Tbh I didn’t plan for this to look so pretty. Or Tbh I didn’t plan for this to look so pretty. 

Originally I was going to buy all extra trims to match but since I couldn’t find the exact tones I decided to use what I already have. 

I looked through my stash and found some trims that I had been keeping because they were too pretty (lol does anyone else do that? 😅) and just experimented as I went. I came out with this beautiful set that is honestly so perfect for me. 🥰 

Who knew I had everything I needed anyway for my perfect set! 

I used the Honey knickers V2 (didn’t take S/A away on the waistband which is why they are a bit higher) and my adapted Barbary bralette with darts. 

I decided to add darts into this pattern as I wanted to allow more volume through the bust area giving a smooth appearance without compression. 

Is the Barbary bralette with darts something you’d be interested in making yourself?

My latest project! Finally I’ve updated my most My latest project! 

Finally I’ve updated my most worn bralette! It was embarrassing deteriorated after I wore it so much 😳 

This is my Barbary Bralette pattern which I’ve added side darts to! 

It’s just sooo comfy 🤤 and exactly the reason I love making my own wardrobe! 

Enjoy! 

Update- I made the back smaller and sorted out the bulk in the dart seams and it’s perfect 🤩

As you may have seen in November, I decided to tak As you may have seen in November, I decided to take a pause on Sew projects. I wasn’t sure what I wanted to do but I knew I needed some time to figure things out.

I’ve since come to the conclusion to close all Sew Projects courses at this moment in time. Sew projects patterns will continue to be available on the Payhip shop though!

I will be cancelling the course platform after the 5th of February, which is where I hold all my courses on. 

With this said you have one last chance to purchase the courses and either work through it in the next month and/or you can download the lessons so you can continue your learning after the course platform closes. 

And as there will be only a short time period to go through the course, I’ve decided to make all courses 50% off to honour this. 

This also means there is only one single payment option so I will not be doing payment plans and you will have access to all content after purchase (there will be no delayed content.)

👉 Use the code LAST CHANCE to get access to the courses at 50% off one last time!

Offer expires on midnight the 29th of January.

Please be aware the course platform will be closing on the 5th of February so please complete the courses by then or download the content before hand! (The same goes for support on courses too!)

🌟 Browse the courses via the link in bio! 

On a personal note this has been a very hard decision after all the hard work I have put into the courses but I know it’s the right time for them to end now. 

Plus I’m still keeping the pattern shop open, so who knows 😃

To all my subscribers, thank you for supporting me and for those especially who have bought my courses, it honestly means the world to have your support and to know that you’ll have these invaluable skills for a lifetime fills me with so much joy! 

The bestest of wishes for the new year!

I started sew projects in 2019 Tbh I started it b I started sew projects in 2019

Tbh I started it because I wasn’t in the physical condition to be at the sewing machine everyday with my handmade lingerie brand. 

So I thought if I can’t make it, I can help others make their own! 

And it worked 

The amount of beautiful creations you have all created for yourself with the help of my tools has been absolutely amazing! 🥰

But now things are changing and it’s time to take a pause. 

I don’t know if that means forever or just a little while but I’m at a time in my life where I need to focus to be able to move to the next place in life (metaphorically and physically!) Instead of doing everything and wondering why I can’t sleep at night. 😅

So I’ll be focussing on helping businesses over at @yelenadesigns

But there is one last treat I want to leave you with before I take a pause and I’ll come to that in just a mo but first I want to let you know what this means…

-This means I won’t be offering anything new 
-I won’t be having any discounts on my courses and patterns
-I probably won’t be too active 
-I won’t be restocking physical supplies such as period panty kits and lingerie making supplies. Once they are gone, they are gone. 

However…

-You will still be able to purchase patterns, supplies and courses 
-I will be showing you my personal makes because I have many I want to do! ☺️

So I’ll still be here but it will be a little bit different until I’ve decided fully what’s best. 

So that’s that. 

Ok so getting back to the final treat…

You’ll have one last chance to get courses and patterns at a special price with the Black Friday sale! 😃

I was in 2 minds about this but I really do want to treat you all before I take some time away. 

And no my prices have not been inflated for the Black Friday sale 😇 

So if you have been eyeing up my courses or patterns but haven’t been able to purchase them yet then now’s the time to get them at a special price!

Make sure you are signed up to my email
list to get access to the the Black Friday sale tomorrow. The link is in the bio.

Lastly, thank you for all your incredible support 🙏 🥹

Create yourself something where you’ll be thankful for past you in those times that can be a bit harder throughout the month! 🥰🩸
