You're Done Planning; Let's Get Sewing!

Join our community challenge to sew a look from your Design Your Wardobe plans and win a $50 gift certificate. Hosted by Taylor Pruitt.

Posted in: Creativity & Mindset • August 31, 2019

Here at Seamwork, we know that making plans and acting on those plans are two very different things. Things come up, new patterns are released, and life can get in the way, and we understand that. Sometimes some extra motivation from friends and a community is all you need to succeed though. 

Last month we finished up the fourth installment of the Design Your Wardrobe series. Throughout this process, there was a ton of organizing, brainstorming, and planning. Naturally, the next step would be to start sewing the looks you planned out. To help with giving you a little push, we hope to motivate you even more through a challenge we are hosting to sew and complete one look from your curated collection! 

The Challenge

This month, we challenge you to sew and complete one look from your Design Your Wardrobe plans! 

Very similar to our other challenges we want to keep this open and fun for you! Ultimately, we want you to feel a part of a community and encouraged to be proud of what you make. 

Head over to the community forum to find out more about the challenge and pledge to join. One lucky winner will receive a $50 gift certificate to a fabric store of your choice.

I hope you're feeling empowered and encouraged to start sewing your Design Your Wardrobe collection! We can't wait to see what you make.
