I know this might be shocking, but there are 3 mockups in the gallery. Pics: 1st mockup, so so much to fix. Lengths were all funky 2nd mockup. so much changed but for some reason still too long. wait.. is it the fabric weight??? is the fabric too heavy? 3rd and or 4th mockup, THE RELIEF! Everything

Guinevere was the sleeve I was mainly excited and worried about. I have never made such dramatic sleeves before but KNEW she could be a star! Definitely named her after the Queen character in the King Aurthor story because of the drama, the regalness, of the whole design. I purposely chose another v

Out of all the sleeve designs, I was the most familiar with Viviane! She is my elven, witchy sleeve but can alsoooo be casual if you shorten the hem of the volante (its the long cascading part of the sleeve). In the photos, my friend Nadine is wearing the Avalon duster in VELVET. I don't know about

Honestly you get it by just watching the video. I have indeed watched this 30+ times

Honestly, from my original design drawing, Morgana was not drawn with justice. While, she is my practical sleeve out of the three, I think she is PAAACKED with whimsy. My dear wonderful friend Gabby nailed the look and making of the Avalon Duster!! Not shown was the days before where I panicked whet

aka the first look at the Avalon Duster with your favorite, the Guinevere Sleeve. Now before we go back to oohing and aahing Lets talk about what I am going to change on this sleeve. I know, I know its perfect, BUUUUT while making the Guinevere, I realized I can make it simpler to sew. This will not

I am in competition with my past self to make the best darndest, clearest, pattern instructions there ever was and TRUST they are coming along!! Clear, non-assuming instructions for adventurous beginners are the goal, because I truly believe that good instructions help EVERYONE. So, starting with a

Grab a Nood. He will help you on your journey (as emotional support). May your adventures this week be as golden as Noodle.

To be honest, I was completely too hopeful after my size 16 model test results, because why did I think my size 30 model test would be easy peasy melon squeasy??? Ok I am being a biiit dramatic (don't sue me). The picture above is from the first test, without the sleeves, just the shrug and the hood

Ok so I have been calling this a cloak for the longest time and… turns out it’s not??? Cloaks apparently DO NOT have sleeves and with three in this pattern, I am clearly in the wrong. Now what could it potentially be?? A duster? A robe? A robe gives me bathroom associations or Star Wars. While I’m n

Look, I get it. There is a lot that goes into grading a pattern. And there is a LOT more that goes into grading a pattern that is genuinely size inclusive. I don't necessarily think it is hard work, but it can absolutely be difficult work. Finding fit models, doing the testing, looking at proportion

Noodle only knows how to "stay" in one place because I want to take a million pictures of him. Yes, its completely selfish but you also reap the benefits so I think its fair. He 100% gets treats from the both of us (thank you for funding his treats) and he is more than happy to pose.

Fall is coming (pls) and I am doing a lil mini sale to celebrate! The sale is buy the Kettle hat and get the Flora Hat half off for everyone BUT as my silly lil guys you will get the Flora hat for free! I adore you and made detailed Youtube tutorials for the Kettle and Flora which just got released

These are by far my favorite pages in my instructions and I cannot wait to continue this tradition forward! A bit of a lore dump, I used to paint with watercolor! Technically, I did mixed media with any materials I could find, but watercolor will always have my heart. It's nice to be able to include

During one of our walks, it started pouring and Noodle, being so low to the ground, got the brunt of it all. Poor boy was walking, pausing to wipe his eyes with his paws, and did not fight me when I picked him up. Noodle loves napping on my face Noodle loves getting in bed before me omg I used to se

Did I revisit one of the first patterns I've ever made? Yes, and she is so beginner friendly with a cute impact! This pattern will be coming in 3 head sizes, 20", 22", and 24" head circumference (51cm, 56cm,and 61cm). I am currently working on the youtube tutorial for this hat and the instructions!

Am I being dramatic?? DOESN’T MIRANDA LOOK STUNNING?? Genuinely I was so nervous for this model test! The left sleeve (still figuring out names) I was worried my ratios are off! I want it to look as good as it does on a size 6, on my size 16. That was extremely important to me because everyone of an

Turning any fabric into a 3d applique is just that simple! Honestly, making an outfit inspired by Valentino without Valentino money, I knew I needed something extra to make the corset POP! All you need is: a sewing machine with a zig zag stitch fray check (I get mine from Wawak) sharp little scissor

What do you think?! OMG MOCKUP 3 IS IT!! Now onto grading and seeing how it fits on my fit models!!

Noodle is turning 5 on July 13th and all tissues in the house are gone. I burst into tears every time I realize this baby boy is turning another year old. I even debated on going live so we can all sing this boy a merry year and full life, but thought against showing the world a grown women blubberi

Sleeve #3 was a CLEAR winner from your votes and because of that, I MUST perfect the pattern for it. Mockup 1, was a sad SAD attempt with elastic. This version taught me that the elastic is a bit tooo overstimulated from the cinching on the arms. Highly do not recommend. (first pic) Mockup 2, is a b

And thankfully I love hand sewing hundreds of tiny little beads for days on end. Having a magpie brain with a astigmatism is the perfect combination to do this tedious work. The lighting and pictures does the corset injustice and I hope to capture it in video soon! Now that the corset is done I can

I am excited to chat with you and show you my first mockup for the next pattern!! There is already upgrades I want to make and a sneaky surprise because I cant help it. We will have a surprise guest today (its Noodle)! Also, this is my first time using Patreon to livestream and if all else fails, I

Feeling like a fisherman with their next big catch!! Def feeding the entire family this time 😤 The sleeves are GINORMOUS and can’t wait to share the first mockup, the good and the bad on Saturday’s lil Sew in 🥹 it’s my first time live-streaming on patreon. Keep stabbin, Wendy P.S. I was not prepar

Hello my lovely stabbers, The Sew In (Check in) will be on June 20th at 3pm - 4pm EST!! Thank you so much for voting and I cannot wait to chat with you here on Patreon! It is my first time live streaming on Patreon and I am hoping to share with you the next design in a mockup form. I cannot wait to

I cried a bit while cutting the fabric pieces for the corset not because I hate cutting, it’s because I miss fun sewing so much. Which honestly wasn’t something I expected after cutting 36 corset pieces (I’ll explain in the video). For this project, I’m working on creating something inspired by the

Hello my favorite little stabbers!! I come here with another vote! (I know I know). I have added a monthly hour live stream and the first one will be held on June 20! Ample time to put it on your calendar. The time can be used to hang, ask questions on current patterns/future designs, or just a bit

Greetings from my home to yours with your monthly Noods!! Each one of these Noods were specially picked for you! Noodle has been freshly groomed and ready to impress you with his clean paws, sweet baby eyes, and a little neck accessory. His "Pet Me" signs are not on but trust me he would gladly offe

ok Sharks, I mean Supervisor Noods and Silly lil guys, today I come to you with some super whimsical designs. Please cast your votes in the comments! The reference images are more true to how I imagine the pattern with some changes. Honestly, I let my brain wonder a bit and need your help deciding!

The video (ofc) took longer than expected bc it had to HAD to be as good as I can make it. Not perfect, but I know it will be helpful to anyone making the Mei top!! I went into depth in sections I thought the instructions would need a little help with like boning structure, sleeve attachment, and ju

TODAY IS THE DAY!! 💋 The Mei top is officially out!! To celebrate, I wanted to give my Silly Lil Guys and Supervisor Noodles a little thank-you gift for all the support — you’ll be getting a 30% off discount code for all my patterns ✨ I’m also updating my Patreon with 3 new tiers! My OG Silly Lil G

I know you’re hungry for your monthly Noods and ofc you will be well fed for the month of May. Yes, he has a pet me sign. Actually I lied, he has two. One on each side because the people needs to know he is open for pet receiving 😌 he might be getting a third….

I’m so lucky to have friends to do a lil Mei photoshop with 🥹 pictures are from the amazing @climacam. Each person made Mei in their own style. I must confess. I had moment where I was directing the “scene” and teared up. All these wonderful people took the time to make the Mei top, woke up at an u

I know postings have been slow due to the ramp up of the Mei pattern and testing!! And wanted to say thank you so much for your patience. After the Mei release there will be an updated system to posting on patreon! And every silly lil guy gets 20% all patterns (you will get the code upon release dat

Omg omg omg I just got everything ready for testing!!! The Mei top is a cheongsam inspired by my identity as an Asian American. It features a mandarin collar, a cropped length, a front opening, and puffed angled sleeves. Pattern highlights: 🌸 Inclusive Size Range: Sizes 0 - 44 (Upper Bust 27.5" - 6

Currently I am working on some of the common adjustments you might need with the Mei top! Pic 2 shows how to make an adjustment for the armhole and next is Apex adjustments. I know this is a bit extra but I truly want you to make a pattern that FITS you and also learn for any future sewing makes 🥹

Its June 2025 and you release to the world that you are moving along with your first top pattern, make it size inclusive with all the shazam. That you will be looking for pattern testers (maybe in like 3 months max) because it should not take long to pattern grade the pattern with a full time job. (

Hello Stabbers, I hope you are punching holes into fabrics (and not skin)! Before I started shopping at Wawak I would buy my sewing notions from Joann, Michaels, and Amazon... later on to realize that WAWAK is the place to go! These are my favorite REPEAT purchases from Wawak because they are the mo

Happy Valentines my BBs! I truly want to spend the day thankful to you for being here and supporting me in my pattern design journey! Today I worked on the grading for a cup size H and I seriously could not do this without your continuous support! My wonderful friend @climacam took these photos of m

Been obsessively illustrating, researching, and writing a over 40 page instruction book on making the Mei top for the past 14 days. Working 10 hour days feels like nothing when I am filled with so much gratitude to be able to work on this project. While I wish I can release the pattern before Lunar

THIS MEANS I will be looking for pattern testers soon!!! I am working on the form for one once instructions are mainly done. Can't wait to continue working on this with you <3 From your next favorite pattern designer, Wendy

My wonderful and dear friend Miranda is doing the corset sew along and her hip measurement is NOT in the size chart (how rude) but luckily for us, this is a pretty simple fix! Following the same guidance in PART 1 but with a small extra step! If you have not yet started, this quick little lesson sho

I don't know about you, but I have been watching sewing videos since 2018 and sometimes...they tend to skip a few things with the assumption that maybe you know more? When I was making my first corset, I found that to also be the case, especially with making pattern adjustments, correcting fitting i

This bad boy right here is going to cover pattern adjustments! Your two favorite stabbers will be covering changes to the first mock-up and Nadine's saucy lil mock-up 1.2. I am also thinking of adding a little side chapter of how to make this pattern work when your measurements are not within the si

Did you know Cheongsam vs Qipao aren't used interchangeably? I originally thought they were the exact same but just the Cantonese vs Mandarin pronunciation. However, those two words have different historical context, origin, and meaning. Qipao (旗袍) "Qipao" literally means "banner gown" and originate

I just got the news from both my model testers that the pattern is good. Not just good, it required minimum adjustments before I start looking for pattern testers. And I don't know how to feel but thankful that you're here to support me. Becoming a designer, specifically a pattern designer, was some

CLASS IS IN SESSION MY LIL STABBERS!! As promised, part 1 is here and it covers everything you need to know to make your first corset mock up. Now be good little students and take your time on the measuring and grading. As you can see in the video, my baby sewist friend feels exceptionally confident

The part 1 of the sew along is coming along!! The goal: helping a beginner sewist or first time corset maker feel comfortable to try and make their own! So please when the video comes out, ask any questions! They will be answered in the comments and on Part 2! Genuinely this is the first long form v

HELLO MY LITTLE STABBERS! Let's get started on the sew along for November! I will be going step by step on grading the pattern to your size for an initial mock-up, adding seam allowance, using a design ruler, and my thought process going through the steps with a beginner sewist + second time corset

Entry 1: First, want to thank YOU for buying my first every graded pattern, the tea kettle hat. Truly it means the world and and every time it brings a little pixie dust to my steps. BTW all silly lil guys will be getting a 20% off code on all graded patterns and the digital pattern references as pa
