Calling All Sewing Pattern Testers!

Do you remember, very long ago, when I said I would make some sewing patterns for the shop? Well, I barely do, it was so long ago. I’ve had the “Coming Soon” text on my Sewing Patterns page (on my fable site) for. ever. I think I was actually not going to do any because of the time it would take to produce them but I can’t seem to get the ideas out of my head. :) Anyway, I’ll be adding some pdf sewing patterns to the shop and I need your help!

I’m looking for a few people to test this pattern. It should be fairly easy and could be completed in an afternoon (depending on your speed and sewing skills). All skill levels are welcome to volunteer – if you are beginner it would be best to have some experience sewing from a pattern.

Also, I would like this done relatively quickly – in the next week or two (max). That way I’ll have time to make any corrections/adjustments if needed. :) All testers will get a completed copy of this pattern once it’s posted to my shop.

Please email me at: dearliette {AT} gmail {DOT} com if you’d like to test this for me.  Thank you in advance!

UPDATE: I’ve got my testers for this round – thank you so much!

Specifically for these ever popular – and summery – bamboo handles you see in the photo. I hope this will help anyone trying to figure out how to adjust the pattern if needed. Oh, FYI, the original pattern is still the same.br /br /I sent out the updated version to everyone tonight but if I somehow overlooked someone (sorry) please forward me your PayPal receipt email and the pattern will be on its way!br /br /On a side note, can someone please explain to me this cracked out weather? Sheesh….92 one day, 62 the next. We (2 humans and 1 cat) are doing all we can to keep cool. Which reminds me, time for another lavender Mojito, I mean, melon pop.
