RTW: Ready to Wear (clothes)

As makers, we get asked “Why sew?” a lot. Isn’t it old-fashioned? Or time-consuming? Or hard?

But for us, there are so many reasons to sew our own clothes. Not the least of which is “it’s empowering”.

If you’ve always wanted to sew, maybe a better question is, “what’s stopping you?” I bet we can help.

COMMENT: What’s YOUR reason to sew your own clothes??

Just Revealed: Secret Sewist Exchange 2023
(These LN outfits are so inspiring - and so is our amazing team)

For the past 4 years (or is it 5?), the Love Notions Ambassadors have participated in a Secret Sewist tradition. They swap names, secretly pick out each others’ fabric and patterns, and Tami (with some help from me) sends the fabric picks off to the sewists! It’s a sewing version of Secret Santa. Our favorite part is seeing the creativity of the sewists and the sweet words between these sewing friends/sisters! you can read about it here

P.S. Today is Tranquil Feature Friday, so tell your sewing friends, grab your set, and celebrate your sewing connections with some get some elegant coziness.

Here’s what they say about Arlington Sweater:

“I really enjoy LN patterns...but this one is my favorite! Not too loose, not too snug. All the neck options makes it great for weather transitions. I am a confident beginner and made three in few hours.”

“I cannot say enough great things about this pattern. It has SO MANY options! I have been working on a business casual wardrobe for work and this is basically the only top pattern I have needed. By varying the fabric and the options on this top I have made at least a dozen versions and no one would know it’s essentially the same top. Clear directions and a quick sew. Love it so much.”

“This is one of my favorite patterns for fall/winter! The sweater I’ve made with it are loose enough to be worn alone, but slim fitting enough that I can layer under a cardigan. I’ve lost count of how many I’ve made, but I’m sure there’ll be more to come.”

Plus, new video about…

It’s time to get enrolled.

Today’s the last day that that Octave Coat on demand sewing course includes the pattern free. 💜

It’s the closest we can come to guaranteeing your sewing success - make a coat with us and learn skills you can use on every future project. #sewingcourse #octavecoat #lovenotions #sewingschool #sewingpattern ...

Can I tell you my Octave story?

With the release of the new course, I wanna personally let you know a little more about my sewing situation.

I’ve been sewing for 5 years - and with LN and working for Tami for 4.5 of those, I think. The learning curve was STEEP at first. But you know what motivated and encouraged me to keep going and learning and tackling new and harder and more complex projects?

Tami.

I had her right next to me (often literally) so when I got to a tricky spot or made a mistake, she could show me the way and sort of hold my hand through the process. I didn’t get stuck and frustrated and discouraged nearly as often as I probably would have going it alone. Honestly, I might have even given up or missed out on some incredibly rewarding and exciting projects if I didn’t have a resource right there patiently showing me the way.

So I guess that’s why I think these courses are such a great idea. Just like me, you’ll have your own personal Tami helping you step by step, on your own time at your own pace.

And let’s be honest, Octave Coat is a stunner. I mean c’mon. Princess seams, that cool pocket design, the dramatic shawl/hood/lapel? All of it is gorgeous - buttttt it’s also got a lot of steps that can be tricky for less experienced sewists.

I tackled and succeeded at projects like this because I had confidence - and that might be something that you want too 💜
