17 Days Until the Fit and Feel Good Sewing Lab - Founders Edition
Hi everyone! We are officially 17 days away from beginning our Fit & Feel Good Sewing Lab, and I’m getting so excited. Before we start talking about sewing machines, patterns, fabric, and techniques, I want you to know the most important belief behind this Lab: Your body is not the problem. The garment is information. We are going to learn how to sew for the bodies we have now—not someday, but now—and make thoughtful choices so our clothes fit, style well, and help us feel fabulous. I would love for us to start getting to know one another. In the comments, please introduce yourself and tell us what made you want to join the Lab. I’m so glad you’re here, and I can’t wait to begin!

Great news🤩. Know Your Body Before You Sew (or Shop) is finally available. Go to Classroom and you will find it there. I am also going to add the link here. Have a look.

Happy Friday
Happy Friday everyone, I hope everyone has had a great week. We are on the countdown to our Founders Fit and Feel Good Sewing Lab. Woo hoo! The reason for the delay in starting time is two fold. One is for me to make sure everything is ready to go. You guys were so great, I wasn't expecting the lab to fill up so quickly. The second reason, is to give everyone ample time to get their machines in working order. I have attached a checklist of what needs to be done pre-lab. However, if your machine has been sitting in a corner for years, it may be a good idea to send it to a machine repair shop to get it cleaned and oiled. On the checklist I have put to thread and test it, but if you don't know how to thread your machine don't worry, I will be sending a video here next week on threading machines. And the Know Your Body Before You Sew (or Shop) mini course will be uploaded this weekend. If you have any questions before we start please ask away. I will also post the lab outline and supply list next week.
Happy Friday
🧵Let's Get to Know Each Other
I thought it would be fun to start with a conversation. Tell us... What's one thing you're working through right now? Maybe you're learning how to use your sewing machine. Maybe you've never cut into fabric because you're afraid of making a mistake. Or maybe you're simply tired of buying clothes that never seem to fit quite right. Wherever you're starting from... You're in good company. Share one thing you're working on or one question you have. There's a good chance someone else here is wondering the very same thing. ❤️
