It’s been killing me to have to wait to tell you that I am participating as a designer for Frances Suzanne’s Flip This Pattern September Showcase!
September Showcase will highlight ten designs by upcoming indie designers with five or less children’s patterns – hey that’s me! Â Bloggers and designers will be sewing up selected patterns from each of the designers. Â My LOL Swing Top will be showcased on September 9th by Angie of Edith & Eloise, Destri of The Mother Huddle (and Sewlosophy), and Hayley of Welcome to the Mouse House. Â The LOL Swing top and all of my patterns will be on sale through September 20 with the code SHOWCASE. Â The code is set up for both my own Jennuine Design shop as well as my Etsy shop.
The other designers and I also get the fun of flipping things around and showcasing another designer’s featured pattern, so I’ll be sewing the Serendipity Swing Coat (Notice the slight similarity in the names? Â How fun is that!). Â Since it’s a showcase, we’re left to our own devices whether we want to flip the pattern or sew it as written. Â I’m planning on making only a slight modification to Destri’s pattern, but mostly it will be as is – such a cute pattern and have you seen the videos she includes for constructing each garment in the collection? Â I love that! Â So many people are visual learners and besides just the video aspect, it’s like you’re peaking over her shoulder while she’s sewing and I always find I pick up little tricks or subtle nuances when I watch someone else work.
Besides all the sample sewing, there’s more fun with the September Showcase. Â There’s also a sew along where you can link up any garment made using a pattern from ANY independent designer with five or fewer children’s sewing patterns. Â If you’ve sewn it, flipped it, mashed it up or tested it – link away!
And if that wasn’t enough, there’s also an amazing giveaway! Â Enter using the Rafflecopter widget below for a chance to win a great pattern prize pack.
Hi Jenn, I just put in the coupon code for the LOL top and it deducted $8 to come out at $0, is that right? I didn’t continue on w the purchase and wanted to let you know in case that should be adjusted.
Wow! Thanks for letting me know! I had accidentally put “cart discount” instead of “cart % discount” so it was taking $20 off the total purchase amount. Should be all set now.
That is so awesome! Congrats!!! I have totally been wanting the LOL swing top!
We are SOOOOO EXCITED about this month, Jenn!! And, thrilled you are a part of it!!
