Episode 36: Jenn Williams - Pattern & Fabric Designer May 16, 2023

Show notes

Meet this week's guest:
I started sewing when I was pregnant with my 6.5 year old! I wanted to make her all the baby clothes and I simply fell in love with the craft. I studied civil engineering in college and worked as a civil engineer for about 10 years. Once my second daughter was born, we decided that it was best I stay home with her. Since quitting engineering, I have really enjoyed putting my all into sewing and pattern drafting. Going to the beach with my family is one of my other favorite things to do!!At the moment I am working on Styla's beach release! It is in testing now but will be live once this podcast airs!!
I work for Styla Patterns & Little Lizard King Patterns. Styla and Little Lizard King are sister companies. Styla is adult patterns and Little Lizard King is children patterns. I also work as a fabric designer for The Styled Magnolia Custom Fabric..

Show notes

Alissah's Bio:
I’m a puff sleeve, ruffle loving, self taught sewist. My love for sewing started young, I grew up watching my mom sew but I didn’t start until 6 years ago when I couldn't find anything that fit my 5ft self, I came home, pulled my sewing machine from the closet and haven't stopped sewing since! When I’m not sewing, I’m thinking about sewing, sharing sewing tips on Instagram, pattern hacking or thrifting! I recently released my spring KnowMe pattern and am currently working on my summer KnowMe pattern coming soon!

Episode 30: Needle & The Belle Apr 04, 2023

Show notes

My mom gifted me my first sewing machine at 13 along with 1 set of sewing lessons that I took with my neighbor. We made these super lame drawstring bags and I was over sewing before I’d really given it a chance. When I was in my first marriage, I think my mom saw that it was getting ready to end so she gifted me with yet another sewing machine so that I could have a hobby that was just mine. As a plus size woman struggling with finding clothes that I loved, I was ready to rock this sewing thing out–until I saw the directions for what was supposed to be a simple dress.

Simple, not.

I struggled to dress but was determined to teach myself how to sew. This was before YouTube University was really big so I bought some books to teach me the sewing jargon I needed and set out to learn. But then I filed for divorce, ended up pregnant and obviously distracted. While pregnant with my 2nd daughter, I broke out my sewing machine and I was determined to upcycle clothes to create a maternity wardrobe. I mean, if I couldn’t figure out how to make them from scratch the least I could do was take someone else’s starting point, right?

From there I’ve grown to sewing 90% of my wardrobe along with my 3 kids and husband.
