I’ve literally considered all aspects to create

I’ve literally considered all aspects to create the best period pants that don’t leak from the materials used, to the fit and even your body shape!

And I haven’t even told you about my design with wings yet! 😛

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

Once you’ve sewn you’re own period pants you’ll never look back! 🙌

When I first began creating lingerie garments about 13 years ago I could have never imaged that I would have been able to sew something for myself that completely transformed my relationship with my menstrual cycle, but I did! 🩸✨

In 2019, I had bought some re-useable pads because I loved the idea of being more eco friendly and trying something I’d never tried before to see if they were more comfortable, and whilst I did like them, I didn’t don’t love them.

They were quite bulky

They felt wet quite quickly after wearing them for only a short time

They were made of more synthetic fabric that I would have liked

So, I took this idea and completely unlevelled it create the best home sewn period pants I could! 🤩

👉They don’t leak

👉They don’t feel wet

👉They fit me perfectly

👉I can change them to suite my flow

And because I loved them so much I decided to make them available for everyone! 🥰

And now I’m on a mission to help as many women as possible create their own period pants to have the comfortable cycle they deserve...

So I created a complete course where, even if you are a beginner sewer, you can sew your own perfect period pants and enjoy the amazing benefits that I and many of my customers have had. 🙌

So if you want to be lounging around in the most comfortable period wear on your next period, then grab yourself a spot on the perfect period pants course…

And for a limited time only there’s a massive 50% off the usual price! 🙀

Grab your spot in the link in bio ✌️

It’s completely possible to have a period where you feel fully protected in your underwear alone so that you don’t have to dread going out with the thought of leaks and uncomfortableness but you haven’t made the switch to me made period pants yet because..

1. You’re skeptical about me-made period products

I totally get this because I was so skeptical about me-made period pants, thinking no they can’t work, they need to be manufactured by a big company so
they work properly with all the technical materials they need.

I was well and truly wrong!

Yes you can 100% make your own period pants and IMO they work better than shop bought ones because you can make them suite your body exactly! 👌

2. You’re worried you don’t have the skills

If you are a beginner sewer I totally understand. But period pants are much easier to sew then you’d think! And even if the first ones aren’t perfect you can make another one and I bet you they will be more than twice as good! Don’t put your skills down! You can do so much more than you think you can!

3. You’re worried about toxic chemicals in period pants

Yep this a big one! There have been some brands to have known to have toxic chemicals in such as PFAS and high levels of silver and this is why with creating your own you have much more control over this, because you can choose your own fabrics!

This is also why I curated period panty kits in organic cotton and other amazing fabrics so you can have the best toxic free period pants!

So if you’re ready to sew yourself your comfiest period wear yet, stay tuned because this Sunday I’ve got an amazing discount coming so you can do exactly that! 🙌 🩸 🍃

Wow what a beauty! 😍

This is the Dinner at 8 bra pattern by @annieandmyras that has just been released!

I made this beautiful bra as a test sample for someone else and it was such a joy to make! 🤩

There were some areas which were hand sewn like parts of the power bar and although hand sewing doesn’t always excite me, I actually thoroughly enjoyed laying back on the bed with my silk and needle in hand, not having to sit crouched over a machine (Which is something I have struggled with for a while because of neck problems) and hand sew some parts of this beautiful bra together!

I realised I want to do more of that now (just need a good thimble!)

But it was also a fairly quick sew and came together faster than I thought!

So this bra is designed for full busts from a 30-38 D-G so definitely check it out if this is your size range!

I think @annieandmyras is such a wonderful designer, bringing in beautiful, luxe, vintage style elements into the modern day. ✨

I used this beautiful bra kit from @magsdesign01 Etsy shop and the lilac silk from fabricks fabrics shop on Etsy.

In 2019 I started sewing my own period pants and it was literally a game changer for me!

I realised then what I had been missing out on for the past 20 years! No sticky tabs sticking to my legs, literally no leaks, and the best of all...

made by me in comfy, organic fabrics that I chose without harmful chemicals! (which can’t control when you buy them from the shops!)

Because I loved them so much I decided to make not only a sewing pattern designed for periods pants, not only organic curated kits where I supplied the best fabrics but also a full sewing and pattern adaption course!

So if you’re ready to banish those demons 🎃

Then stay tuned because we’ve got an amazing discount on the course coming very soon!

And it may just be the last time you can get your hands on the much loved period panty kits! 🙀

Yes being able to sew a bra is the first step to making better than the shops lingerie 🙌

But being able to fit it so it supports you in the way you want and feels comfortable all day long is the key to never going back feeling deflated from bras off the rack. 😮‍💨

Your body isn’t weird! It’s just that the br

Your body isn’t weird!

It’s just that the bra pattern wasn’t made for your body!

But as a bra maker you can change that! 😃

You’ve learnt the skills to sew your own bra and knicker set and you already love it, knowing that you can create the lingerie of your dreams 🤩

but you don’t feel your bra is fitting right.

And tbh that’s very common!

Because bras are made to sit precisely on the contour of the body and if it’s not right for your body shape or size by only a 1cm or 2 you can probably see it and feel it!

But please don’t get disheartened and stop there, only a simple amendment could change all that!

And you will never have to traipse around the shops for a bra again! 😅

I created the Wired Bra Perfect Fit guide so you can understand the problem with the fit you are having and solve it!

It’s a handy PDF guide that you can have at hand whenever you need so you can get to work on creating that dream set at last. 😍

I also take you through 2 videos of badly fitting bras to show you the problems on a human body which is only available for people purchasing the guide.

I’ve fitted, drafted and amended bra patterns for the last 13 years and know exactly what the most common fitting issues are and how to solve them which are all in the guide!

Don’t get hung up on the fact your bra doesn’t fit, let’s make it fit so you can wear the dream bra you always wanted! 💃
