Greetings everyone!
Are you as excited for spring as I am? I always love that one freakishly warm day in March (usually before one last snowstorm as we approach April).
My last newsletter was about a month ago, and I'm sorry about the radio silence. It was due to a combination of one or several terrible stomach bugs, traveling for family events, and waiting for collaborators to complete their parts of some projects. However, I have 3 pieces of great news!
1. My newest corset pattern is in phase 2 - meaning the pattern drafting and prototyping is finished, and it's being tested in different sizes by some volunteers. I'm awaiting feedback from them before phase 3 which is grading the pattern into all sizes, figuring out how to create the master templates from (chipboard or plastic? Laser printing (πΈπΈπΈ) or cut by hand (πππ) try a cutting robot like a Cricut?). And then choosing fabrics, and finally release slated for later this year!
2. I'm working on a group project for the development of an app for another company and I've been waiting a few weeks for my collaborators to finish their part of the project. That was complete last weekend, and so I got started on my portion this week! I hope to be able to reveal the finished product in less than a month!
3. I also have separate volunteers testing out different materials and hardware for corsets, and am waiting for feedback before potentially using them in future products.
My patrons can look out for a more detailed update very soon and get sneak peeks on the new pattern (and the app, if I'm allowed!). I can't wait to share more about this when the time comes, but I should get back to work so that I have something to show for it!
In the meantime, please enjoy some gorgeous new spring colorways available in the shop right now:
