I don't know if knew this, but "The Devil Wears Prada" is one of my favorite movies.
Not just because of the story... but because of what it says about fashion.
So I recreated one of the dresses in miniature.
And since I know you enjoy seeing the sewing process, I shared the full video on my other channel.
If you want to see how it came together... it's there
Do you think fashion is more than just clothes?

You’ve told me you enjoy seeing complete sewing projects, so I think this one might surprise you 👀

I was inspired by a design from the latest collection by Jonathan Anderson for Dior and decided to recreate the idea but in miniature!

It may look simple at first,but working at this scale actually requires even more precision and detail than full size garments.

So yes, it’s doll size, but the construction is very real.

If you’re curious to see how it all came together, the video is on my experimental channel 🧵🪡

Hello friends! I get asked all the time where to start with sewing and patternmaking, so I wanted to share this here!

I have two online courses:
• Fundamentals of Sewing
• Patternmaking for Beginners: Basic Patterns

Right now, the patternmaking course is 53% off!

It's perfect if you want to draft your own patterns, understand fit, and feel confident making clothes from scratch. I also touch on fashion history, taking measurements, understanding the ruler, and even dabble a little into pattern transformations!

Both courses are self paced and designed to make sewing and patternmaking feel way less intimidating.

I even have my "Major Savings" bundle for BOTH courses that is only $55 right now!

I just uploaded a new tutorial on my experimental channel where I make a simple T-shirt and I show five different ways to finish the neckline. I’m using the same pattern but different sewing techniques. And I know some of you have made questions about this before.

Although this project is sewn at doll scale, the techniques are real garment construction methods you can apply to full size clothing as well. Small details, big differences in the final look.

Let me know in the comments which neckline finish is your favourite?

Hey everyone!

Some time ago, I asked what kind of sewing projects you like the most, and many of you said you would like to make finished garments! 💗

So, I decided to start a new channel just for that! Where I make finish garments and accessories like blouses,skirts,etc. Yesterday I posted a new video where I made a super easy skirt and I think you’ll love it!

Come check it out if you enjoy making full pieces ✂️✨
