Cascade Sew-Along: Announcement & Schedule
Alright, the patterns have shipped and it's time to start the Cascade Duffle Coat Sew-Along! A lot of you have been asking me when this would start and I'm excited to dive right in. We'll be going along with the instruction booklet, as usual, but this will give you the opportunity to sew with me and ask any questions you might have as we go. If you're nervous about tackling a large project like a coat, don't worry, it's actually not as scary as it sounds and is such a rewarding project. Since I make clothes like it's my job (errr well it is) people rarely give me the "wow you sewed that?!" response to anything anymore...except coats. It still blows people away!
Here's the schedule we'll be sticking to, 11 days to sew your coat and 2 days for variations.
