GUYS I HAVE TO TELL YOU ABOUT THIS AMAZING THING I FOUND AT MEGACON
i’m definitely gonna sound like a salesman but i need to give this new company a signal boost. i’ve never seen anything like this on the con floor and it’s such an obvious idea once i saw it.
there’s a company called Cut/Sew and they specialize in making patterns. but their real goal is getting newbies to try using patterns! ok ok let me elaborate: the big pattern companies like Simplicity, McCall’s, etc etc. are fine, but they can be super intimidating to someone who’s never used a pattern before. like sure, patterns are basically a tutorial on how to make a garment, but where’s the tutorial on how to correctly interpret the pattern? that’s where these guys come in!
they include very clear instructions, lists for everything you’ll need, and even a QR code you can scan and input your measurements to get a custom fit for your garment!!
and sure, the big companies also include what you’ll need, but frankly it’s laid out very poorly and newbies probably won’t know to look for it on the pattern. Cut/Sew has everything laid out very clearly and very friendly for beginners (or honestly, for any skill level! I think everyone would want clear pattern instructions, not just beginners).
and look how cute the packaging is omg!!
this is the back of their card that i got at megacon, as well as the frickin adorable packaging for the seifuku pattern i bought from them. they have a bunch of patterns available for purchase and a lot of them are for hard-to-find things, like flight suits and high-waisted puff pants.
**HERE IS THEIR WEBSITE**
please give them a look-see, they are a very new company and i think there’s a very viable market for stuff like this!
