Hi everyone, I’m Fi and I live in Winchester, UK. I’ve known Kate for years and am part of the CC team helping with comms etc. I learnt to sew when I was about 8 or 9 because I was in a junk / vintage shop with my parents, saw an old Victorian hand sewing machine and decided it was so beautiful it had to be mine! It was £10! I used to make very scrappy little patchwork pin cushions with it and think they were amazing 😆 Since then my skills have not progressed much 😆 so I’m still a beginner and learning alongside all of you. My favourite bit of the classes is actually the styling - I find it fascinating how you can make a few adjustments that completely change the way your clothes look, and how you feel in them. It’s going to be so great to see all your feedback and hear your opinions so we can make classes you love. Thanks so much for doing this. Have fun with the twilly - can’t wait to see your photos!

I’m here to help CONVERTED CLOSET bring this course to life in the best possible way. My background is in video production and advertising — and even though I know absolutely nothing about sewing, I did sew a button on my jacket the other day… my proudest project so far 😂 (Proof on the photo) I would like to help make this course create as much value as possible for all of you. Thanks for being part of the tester group — your feedback is pure gold for someone like me 🙏

Think I was supposed to post my project here not buried in another post 😅What I started with

I'm from Miami, FL. -- just catching up and yet still behind on the twilly thing. I've been following Kate/CC for years on IG and am very happy and excited to be participating in this group. A marketing professional turned stay-at-home mom 25 years ago, I've sewn and tinkered on lots of things over the years... from costumes to many small sewing repairs. My daughters keeps me on my toes with projects that range from sizing down evening/prom gowns (she's an xxs) to creating a castanet case with left-over upholstery fabric (spanish dance lessons) and more recently a conversion that was challenging (for me) and actually turned out well (ie: she wears it out, LOL) -- converted a boys RL dress shirt into a strapless, fold-over, buttoned-up-back top. I'm not even sure how we did that... but we did. I've always embraced a reduce/reuse/repurpose mindset and I'm excited at this opportunity. Thank you Kate and CC team. :) PS: Twilly attempt & results to be posted soon...

Hello everyone, it’s been great catching up on what everyone has been making. I’ve been spending some time on mine over the weekend and am posting a video to show the before and after. As usual when it comes to sewing I have gone off on one and ended up making it more complicated than it needs to be 😂 but I’m pleased with the result. Just on the look out for a couple of little Pom Pom’s now 👀
